Chapter 200 Registration
Xu Shengli now visits the homes of pig farmers in the surrounding rural areas every week, and his relationship with the farmers is getting better and better. He has also developed new sales outlets in the village. The feed factory distributes goods regularly, and villagers can go to the sales outlets to buy feed.
He also made a contract for the exclusive sale of live pigs. If the pigs were fed with long-summer feed, the meat processing plant would be guaranteed to purchase them. When it was time to sell the pigs, the farmers would report to the feed factory in advance, and the feed factory would be responsible for notifying the meat processing plant to transport the pigs. The farmers would then be paid on the spot at the same price as high-quality pigs.
Xu Shengli used to work in the commune. He had a good relationship with the agriculture and animal husbandry departments of the town government. They helped him with publicity, and he would treat them to dinner every now and then. The food wasn't very good, just a drink and chat in a small restaurant in the town. The main thing was to have fun.
Wen Qing was relieved to see that Xu Shengli was now basically able to take on the responsibilities of factory director.
Two months later, Wen Qing put the wine that had been aged in the space for a period of time back into the wine cellar, and replaced it with another batch of wine to speed up the aging of the liquor produced by the new process.
The selection of Beijing's famous wines was in September, and time was very tight. Wang Guozhang selected this batch of wines as the base wine, and then selected four other wines with slightly older years as flavoring wines for blending. Wen Qing was actually a little unsure whether the new process would work or whether the aging time was too short.
Early in the morning, Wen Qing arrived at the blending workshop to watch Wang Guozhang blending new wine.
He selected base liquors in different proportions according to the aroma and mixed them, then poured the blended liquor into the cup and let Wen Qing, Liu Quan and Wang Jianguo taste it.
Wen Qing has run a winery for many years and has no problem tasting wine. In addition, after practicing internal skills, her five senses have become more sensitive and she can feel subtle changes in the wine.
Wen Qing took out the Changxia Special Brew that she had brewed before. Comparing the two, the wine brewed according to the new technology had a more complex and harmonious aroma, with a strong cellar aroma, full body and long aftertaste. However, due to insufficient aging time, the aged aroma was not prominent.
This doesn’t matter, it can continue to age in the bottle.
The feedback from everyone in the end was similar to what Wen Qing tasted, and the final blending formula was to increase the proportion of old wine on this basis to increase the aged aroma.
Wen Qing asked Wang Guozhang to blend a batch of wine according to this recipe, and invited several experts including Yu Guomin, Deng Yinghua and Xie Zhenghao to taste it. The wine received unanimous praise, and Wen Qing agreed to let them participate in the evaluation of famous local wines in Beijing.
Wen Qing found Director Ye, the old leader of the Sifeng District Industrial Bureau, and asked him to introduce her to the leaders of the Municipal Light Industry Bureau.
The Municipal Industrial Bureau and the Sifeng District Industrial Bureau are in a superior-subordinate relationship. Director Ye still feels sympathetic about Wen Qing being forced to resign because of her in-laws. After all, Wen Qing didn't do anything illegal. And when he heard that she was divorced, he felt that she had lost her home and was unemployed, and her life was too rough. Now he knows that she is self-reliant and dedicated to developing her career, and has never troubled him. He can't help but feel sympathy for her and decides to help her.
He was a college student in the 1960s. People who work in technology tend to have a strong scholarly air. His classmate was a director of the Municipal Industrial Bureau. Director Ye went to find his classmate, told him about Wen Qing's experience, put down the Changxia Baijiu, and said, "Old classmate, this is the wine made by our former colleague. Try it and see if it can be included in the city's famous wine competition?"
The old classmate knew what he meant and thought it was rare for an old classmate to take the initiative to seek his help, so he brought the wine back in the evening and asked his wife to cook two delicious dishes. The couple drank together and thought the wine was indeed good.
Director Ye called Wen Qing and said, "Xiao Wen, I checked the quality of your wine and it's good. I also told Director Yang of the Food Department of the Municipal Industry Bureau about your situation. I'll take you to see him tomorrow."
Wen Qing was very happy, "Director Ye, thank you so much for your help."
The two agreed to meet in front of the Municipal Industrial Bureau. Wen Qing went back and talked to Liu Quan and Wang Jianguo, and decided to take Wang Jianguo with her.
Under the leadership of Director Ye, Wen Qing and Wang Jianguo went to Director Yang's office together.
Director Ye introduced Wen Qing. Director Yang was quite surprised to see that Wen Qing, a young woman, opened a winery.
Wen Qing said: "I started brewing wine because the sorghum produced in the countryside was not tasty, so I learned how to brew wine from the villagers. Later, I found that there was a lot of knowledge in brewing wine, so I became interested and have been doing it until now, for more than ten years."
Then he handed a bottle of Changxia Special Brew to Director Yang, who looked at it carefully and said, "We rarely produce strong-flavor liquor here."
Wen Qing took out the wine glass she brought and asked, "Can you taste it?"
Director Yang smiled and said, "Comrade Xiao Wen, I don't drink much, and I can't tell the difference. So, I'll find two people."
He asked the comrades in the office to go out and find two men to come in and introduce Wen Qing to them, "Lao Wang, Lao Zhang, this is Director Wen of our Beijing Changxia Winery. She brought the Changxia Special Brew produced by her factory for us to taste. You all drink wine often, come and taste it."
Wen Qing poured four glasses of wine, Director Yang picked up a glass of wine, and Wang and Zhang also picked up the wine and tasted it carefully. Comrade Wang gave a thumbs up and said, "This wine is good, refreshing and mellow, with a long-lasting cellar aroma."
Comrade Zhang also said: "The wine is full-bodied and sweet. Judging from the wine sticking to the glass, it must be blended with base wine that is at least five years old."
Director Ye also picked up the wine glass, took a sip, and smiled: "I don't know how to taste wine, but I think this wine tastes better than Lao Baigan."
Wen Qing said: "Our liquor is brewed using the solid-state method. Currently, there are two types of liquor: strong-flavor liquor and light-flavor liquor. They are sold in Northeast China, North China, and Central China."
He then said, "We can't fully taste it after just a small sip. Would you be so kind as to invite Director Yang and the two comrades to have dinner with us? And give us some suggestions?"
Director Ye also helped, and finally Director Yang agreed to have dinner together.
Wen Qing asked Wang Jianguo to quickly book a seat at a nearby Sichuan restaurant, and after get off work, she took a few people to the Sichuan restaurant.
After the meal, everyone had a certain understanding of Changxia Liquor Industry and truly felt the taste of Changxia Special Brew. Although this wine has a certain gap with Sichuan liquors such as Wuliangye and Meizhou Laojiao Special Liquor, it is no worse than ordinary Sichuan liquors.
At the meeting, Wen Qing expressed the hope to participate in the city-level selection of famous and high-quality products. Director Yang said that participating in the selection of famous and high-quality products is the right of enterprises and the Industrial Bureau supports it. The main reason is that Pingjing does not have any well-known strong-flavored liquor. Of course, Changxia Liquor Industry is welcome to sign up, which will also lay the foundation for them to continue to participate in national evaluations.
Seeing that everyone recognized the Changxia Special Brew, Wen Qing felt relieved. Director Yang asked Wen Qing to go to the office to fill out the registration form for the competition. Wen Qing nodded quickly and said that she would sign up the next day.
There are many companies participating in the selection of famous and high-quality products. They are just recommended, which does not mean that they will be selected.
