Chapter 178
While eating and drinking, Masao Ishihara explained: "It is not necessary to sprout barley to make whiskey. Even barley that does not need to sprout, it can still make whiskey.
The direct advantage is that it can reduce production costs, especially time costs. Irish pot-style distilled whiskey is often added to non-germinated barley for brewing.
Some of the whiskeys use half-germinated barley and half-non-germinated barley. The proportion is entirely up to the distillery to decide.
As for the obvious disadvantage, it is that there will be completely different effects in the taste. Overall or personally, using germinated barley to brew whiskey is better than non-germinated barley.
Although germination of barley with labor and time consuming will increase the brewing cost and increase the price of whiskey, it is also worth it.
To say a thousand or ten thousand, the main thing is to look at the market positioning of the whiskey distillery and what is the target consumer group?
Another thing is that the standard for Scotch whiskey is that barrel aging cannot be less than three years. Of course, there are also some innovative whiskey brewing. Strictly speaking, they cannot be called whiskey.
For example, there is a whiskey distillery in Okinawa that uses rice as the main raw material to make whiskey. This rice whiskey is probably not only in Japan, but also in the world, it is really unique."
After hearing what he said, Kudo Wakana gained insight and said, "Whiskey is really a science."
"It's true." Masao Ishihara said bluntly.
"We don't talk about whiskey, let's talk about the matter between us." Kudo Wakana consciously put her right hand in her pocket on her top, took out a hospital examination report that had been prepared long ago, and then delivered it to him.
Ishihara Masao took the hospital examination report in his hand and saw it completely understand. He was holding a pregnancy report about Kudo Wakana's positive pregnancy, which means she was pregnant.
"Why did you have it?" Masao Ishihara blurted out without thinking about it.
"You said, why did I have it? It's not because you don't take any contraceptive measures every time." Kudo Wakana said straightforwardly.
"Isn't this what you should do? Why did it fall on me?" Masao Ishihara retorted.
"What do you mean? Are you blaming me? Or don't you want this child in my belly?" Kudo Wakana said with a serious expression.
"I don't blame you, nor do I have the intention of not wanting the child in your belly. But the matter came too suddenly, and I was not prepared at all.
Don't be like this every time! The last time was Mitsuki, and this time it was like this again." Masao Ishihara had another child unknowingly.
"You are still blaming me." Kudo Wakana said bluntly.
"Mizuki is also in the first grade of elementary school. If you want to have another one, just give birth!" Masao Ishihara said with the fact that things have come to this point, and there is nothing to say.
Seeing that he didn't want to have an abortion, Kudo finally felt relieved and said, "This time, I want to give birth to a son for you."
"Birth! Birth!" Masao Ishihara suddenly felt that her words were quite funny. Giving birth to a child is not something that can be determined by natural conception. However, she understood her mood.
Families who have daughters always hope that the next child will be the son. On the contrary, families who have sons also hope that the next child will be the daughter. Only when there are children and daughters can they form the "good" of Chinese characters.
"Can I really give birth?" Kudo Wakana stared at him with a torch and confirmed again.
"Of course you can have a child. Unless you don't want to have a child." Masao Ishihara gave a positive reply.
"I don't want to. I'm just worried that you will not want this child in my belly." Kudo's worries are not completely unreasonable.
She and Masao Ishihara have not officially become a naturalized marriage, which means that on the one hand, her children will be illegitimate children. Regarding this, she has long been mentally prepared and does not have any psychological burden.
On the other hand, the key point is, one more child, one more expense. He is the one who contributes the money, which means he has a veto power.
If he was a turtle, he was determined to not have the child in his stomach, then she really had no better way.
In the past, it was very difficult to raise Miyue by herself and lived a relatively poor life. If there was another child, she would be able to raise her alone.
Masao Ishihara's head was spinning very fast. He could not marry her, and his future marriage partner would be someone else.
His future wife will still have children. According to the traditional Japanese family model, it is normal to have two or three children in the family.
Even if a couple has three or four children, it is not too many. The problem is that if they have two women, the child will double.
Although he has money, it will also involve the issue of future heirs and inheritance distribution. He is absolutely ruthless and will not give birth to children or lovers without a single yen.
Furthermore, it is difficult to guarantee that an individual will not be moved by a certain woman again in the future. The other party will give birth to a bunch of children for himself, but it will be in trouble.
Masao Ishihara knew it with reason and moved it with emotion: "No matter whether the child in your belly is a boy or a girl, you can give birth to it.
I just hope you won’t have another child from now on. Your energy is limited, and it is not easy to take care of two children. Two children are enough for you.
You can’t live for your children, but you have your own hobbies and life. Besides, there is not a lot of children, but how to cultivate them into talents.”
"I listen to you." Kudo Wakana nodded and said with a smile.
"I've been very busy recently and I don't have time to come to see you and Mitsuki." Masao Ishihara gave her a vaccination in advance to prevent her from thinking about everything, especially women who are more suspicious during pregnancy.
"Then what are you busy with?" Kudo Wakana asked a long-winded question.
Masao Ishihara was not trying to find an excuse not to come to see the mother and daughter and said, "Look at the land. I plan to buy a piece of land in Karuizawa to build a special filling factory.
If the production of the Zhuangyuanlang Yellow Distillery in Shaoxing, Zhejiang, China resumes and ships the first batch of raw rice wine to Karuizawa, Japan, I can also ask the filling workshop of Karuizawa Whisky Distillery to stop filling whisky operations, but instead change it to fill the rice wine in full.
