Picking Up Chestnuts
Editor: Henyee Translations
In the Chu Village.
Some of the beans were set aside for making tofu, while the rest were steamed. Chu Qingzhi asked several aunts to help grind the beans as she needed to visit the brewery.
Upon her arrival, Du Xiue and others had already bottled the beer for secondary fermentation in the storage room.
Du Xiue, having washed her hands, approached Chu Qingzhi, "Qingzhi, we've handled the beer as you instructed. What's next?"
Chu Qingzhi replied, "Continue brewing beer, this time two thousand catties . Start a new batch every three days without interruption. Understand?"
This seemed like a move towards regular production. Du Xiue's spirits lifted, "Understood. I'll start weighing the barley right away."
Chu Qingzhi admired Du Xiue's efficiency. If not for being born in ancient times, Du Xiue would have been a successful woman in business.
