Traveling through 70's wine

Chapter 285: Branch 2

After Wen Qing finished dealing with the inventory in the space, she went back to Pengcheng, mainly to take care of the children. The children were still young, so Wen Qing took them to the beach, the zoo, and the botanical garden to play.

In early March, Wen Qing told Yang Jiesheng and Old Lady Yang that she was going back to Pingjing. She wanted to bring both children with her.

Old Mrs. Yang was reluctant to let Shanshan go. Wen Qing thought that Shanshan would go to elementary school in September and it would be difficult for her to stay in Pengcheng for a long time in the future, so she agreed to let Shanshan continue to stay in Pengcheng to attend kindergarten. She would take Yang Liu back and pick Shanshan up in the summer. It was not that Old Mrs. Yang had any objection to this adopted granddaughter, but she really could not take care of such a young baby by herself.

Wen Qing brought the child back to Pingjing and asked Liu Quan to find a sister-in-law in Erxia Village to help her take care of Yang Liu. Wen Qing gave her the nickname Xiaofeng, which together with her name means "Yang Liu Feng", which is very meaningful.

This sister-in-law's surname is Liu. She is in her 50s and is a distant cousin of Liu Quan. She is in good health and has a cheerful personality. She has two sons, two grandsons and a granddaughter, all of whom are in school, so she has experience in taking care of children.

Mrs. Liu usually lives in Wen Qing's courtyard in Huashuijing Lane, and Wen Qing gives her a day off on weekends.

Wen Qing spent most of the year in Ping'an County, and the affairs of Changxia Winery were basically handed over to Liu Quan and Wang Jianguo.

In the second half of last year, Liu Quan heard that a small winery and three distilleries in Anhui Province were for sale. Seeing that the feed factory began to set up branches in other places, he also wanted to expand the winery. He reported his idea of ​​acquiring these distilleries to Wen Qing.

That small winery is only more than 30 kilometers away from the Gutan Winery. Although it is a small winery, it covers an area of ​​5 acres. Each small winery covers an area of ​​6 or acres and is located near the county seat.

Wen Qing thought for a long time and felt that the winery still needed to grow and expand, so he decided to let Liu Quan buy it. There were a total of 520 wine cellars in four locations, and he spent 260 million yuan. Each wine cellar was only 5000 yuan. Liu Quan felt it was worth it.

After returning, Wen Qing asked Mrs. Liu to look after the child at home, left her a lot of money, prepared food, meat, vegetables, as well as milk powder, diapers, etc. needed by the child, and went to Anhui Province with Liu Quan.

After arriving at the place, Wen Qing first went to inspect the small winery, and then visited the three distilleries. Liu Quan had arranged people to replace the signs of the four places with those of the Changxia Distillery Second Branch. At the same time, the old brewing equipment of the distillery was replaced with new equipment, the factory building was repaired, the exterior walls were painted, the floor of the brewing workshop was paved with tiles, the walls were covered with ceramic tiles, and the green belts in the factory were repaired. The entire factory area looks much tidier and cleaner. This small winery has 300 wine cellars, and when things were good in the past, it could produce 1000 tons of liquor every year.

Although the three wineries are small, they have been renovated according to standard workshops. They are named Workshop 70, Workshop 70, and Workshop 80 of the Second Branch of Changxia Winery. They have , , and wine cellars respectively. The output is not large, but fortunately the four workshops are less than kilometers apart, so management is not difficult.

Wen Qing tested their wine cellar, and the test data showed that it was rich in microbial components. Liu Quan said, "Sister Wen, before we bought the winery and the three small wineries, we inspected their wine cellars. Jianguo came to see them and thought that the quality of their wine cellars was okay, but they had no sales channels. Now that grain prices have risen, the benefits are not good, and the boss doesn't want to do it anymore."

The original director of the small winery had resigned, so Liuquan sent Wang Jianguo's second apprentice Tang Lin to be the director, and also sent a young man named Wu Feng from the sales department to be the sales chief. Wen Qing appointed a skilled master named Li Changqing from the local employees as deputy director, and the chief of finance was Liu Jiaming, who was sent from the Changxia Winery. The team here was finally set up.

Wen Qing called the workers to a meeting one by one, promoted the winery's next work, and promised that if everyone worked hard and the enterprise performed well, the employees' income would not only not decrease, but would receive bonuses. The key to this kind of off-site acquisition is to capture people's hearts and minds, be fair and just, and once everyone's enthusiasm is mobilized, work can be carried out in an orderly manner.

With one winery and three small wineries, the focus now is to unify the winemaking process and maintain the unified flavor of Changxia Special Wine. This problem can only be solved during the winemaking process.

Wen Qing watched them brew several cellars of wine and tasted the old wine. He felt that there was not much problem in making base wine. Finally, the expansion target of the second branch's wine cellars was set to 1000, the three wineries should each reach 150, and the small winery should reach 550. They injected 200 million yuan to further expand the operation. Tang Lin made use of the vacant land in each factory area and dug new wine cellars. After two or three years when these wine cellars are put into production, their output will be further expanded.

The liquor factories in Anhui Province all have their own traditional methods of maintaining cellars. Wen Qing urged Tang Lin to learn from each other's strengths and overcome their weaknesses to form his own method of maintaining cellars. The important thing is to improve the quality of the cellars and brew good wine.

Tang Lin is the smartest of Wang Jianguo's three apprentices. He is usually willing to use his brain. He was very excited to be entrusted with the important task this time and wanted to make a career for himself. He has followed Wang Jianguo for seven or eight years. He used to be the person in charge of the strong-flavor liquor workshop in the new factory area and has a lot of experience in managing workshops. Now, as the director of a branch factory, he must not only do a good job in production management, but also in enterprise management and market promotion to improve the efficiency of the branch factory.

Wen Qing found an excuse for the grain in the space and sent it to the second branch in the name of Changxia Grain Company. The grain in the space is of high quality and is very helpful in improving the quality of liquor. In the future, the base liquor provided to Gutan Distillery will be from the second branch. The distance between the two sides is closer, which reduces transportation costs.

After finishing her business in Anhui Province, she returned to the capital with Liu Quan. Wen Qing pushed open the gate and was greeted by Mrs. Liu holding Xiao Feng. The little girl was only four months old, with beautiful eyebrows, a round face, big eyes and a pink mouth. When she saw Wen Qing, she grinned and spit out saliva bubbles from time to time. Wen Qing loved her so much that she washed her hands and hugged her. Xiao Feng felt her mother's embrace and started chatting with Wen Qing.

Wen Qing asked Sister Liu to give the child to her and she would take care of Xiaofeng at night. It was indeed hard for Sister Liu to take care of the child alone for more than half a month. Fortunately, Xiaofeng was only two months old and slept more during the day. Sister Liu could go out to buy some food while the child was sleeping.

After closing the door, Wen Qing carried the child into the space. The air in the space was fresh and the temperature was suitable. Xiao Feng'er slept more soundly. Wen Qing put the child in the bedroom and went to the study to practice. After two hours of practice, Wen Qing went to the fields.

When Wen Qing was in Anhui Province, he lived alone in a room in a hotel. He would enter the space at night to take care of the fields. The fields in the space needed constant replenishment of nutrients as they were planted. Wen Qing burned half of the harvested straw and spread the ash on the ground, and used the other half as fertilizer, which was then spread on the ground. Therefore, the land output here has always been very high.
