Chapter 377: A Bamboo Basket Sparks a Business Opportunity_3
However, what was of little value to others, Aunt Tong's woven bamboo baskets, were of great use to Mo Yan. The winery was soon to start production, but the selection of containers for the wine had given her quite a headache. Just the thought of using those large-bellied pottery wine jars, the smallest of which could hold at least five kilos of wine, to bottle red wine caused her great distress.
The winery would feature red wine as its main product, while other fruit wines were to be made as well. Without clear, variously shaped glass bottles at her disposal, she had to improvise and design a brand-new set of small pottery wine jars.
These jars had a capacity similar to modern wine bottles and, based on the type of wine, had different shapes designed for them. They would be given to the pottery masters for mass production.
