Chapter 1210 - 382: Returning Home, Making Mooncakes
With a million jin of fruit to be turned into wine, even if people were hired to wash and crush them, Mo Yan wouldn’t be able to complete the task alone in just a few days. As fruit production was bound to increase, it would become even more impossible for her to manage on her own, making it necessary to share the sugar-adding ratios with Zhao Mu and others.
As long as the sugar-adding ratio was well managed, making fruit wine wasn’t difficult at all. However, Mo Yan wasn’t worried about Zhao Mu and the rest leaking the secret. Before she decided to reveal to them the methods of brewing each kind of fruit wine, Xue tuanzi had already applied a different Dream Entering Technique on them.
Usually, Zhao Mu and the others could clearly remember every step of the winemaking process, but once they entertained the thought of revealing the methods, they would intermittently lose that memory, no matter how hard they tried, they couldn’t recall how to do it.
This Dream Entering Technique was much more convenient than directly erasing memories, it had no adverse effects on the subjects’ bodies, and it was very effective, but it was also much more difficult to apply. Xue tuanzi had exhausted all its Spiritual Power, leaving the Artifact Spirit utterly weakened.
Mo Yan didn’t distrust these steadfast soldiers, who looked after her family’s orchard as if it were their own child, she was simply taking precautions to prevent potential leaks at their root.
In doing so, she could confidently rely on these people and give them the utmost trust. They, in turn, didn’t have to worry about inadvertently letting the secret slip, which would be good for everyone involved.
This time, just with grapes alone, there were two hundred thousand jin. Besides eating and sleeping, Mo Yan, Zhao Mu, and the others worked non-stop for two full days to crush all the grapes into vats.
For every ten jin of grapes added to the vat, three jin or two jin of white sugar would be put on top. When the vat was filled to two-thirds, it would be covered with a lid, then wrapped tightly with impermeable oil paper, and finally sealed with a smooth layer of yellow clay, waiting for the grapes to ferment.
