Chapter 246 Rejection
Wen Qing returned to her home in Huashuijing Lane and continued to learn how to grow Chinese medicinal herbs. There are many types of Chinese medicinal herbs in China, and she has only planted more than ten varieties now. Planting in the space is simple, but she also needs to know when to harvest, and she can just leave it alone if she can't plant it.
After reading the book, Wen Qing realized that there is no such thing as a thousand-year-old magical medicine. Panax notoginseng should usually be harvested in three to five years, Polygonum multiflorum in two to three years, and Gastrodia elata in one year. She compared the Chinese medicinal materials in her fields and hung signs next to each one, writing down the planting time and related knowledge.
After the Spring Festival, life returned to normal. She went to the winery to review the various plans submitted by various departments. Wang Jianguo came over nervously and said hesitantly, "Sister Wen, someone wants to see you."
Wen Qing noticed that he looked very unnatural and asked, "What's the matter?"
Wang Jianguo did not speak, but stepped aside to make way for a man in his twenties, who introduced himself with a somewhat arrogant look: "Hello, Director Wen. My last name is Lin. I came here today to discuss cooperation with you."
Wen Qing asked in surprise: "Comrade Lin, what do you want to cooperate with me on?"
The man surnamed Lin said arrogantly, "I drank your Changxia Jingyun at a friend's place a few days ago, and I felt that the taste was just so-so. But your factory is near Beijing, and I want to help you improve it. How about this? I will invest 50 yuan in your Changxia Distillery and send two masters to serve as technical instructors. I will invest capital and technology to become a major shareholder. I am confident that Changxia Distillery will not catch up with Wuliangye, nor will it lose to Jiannanchun in the future."
Wen Qing was annoyed and said, "Comrade Lin, I'm sorry, our Changxia Winery is just a small factory. We don't have such big ambitions, and we don't want to increase shareholders."
The man surnamed Lin didn't expect that she would refuse, and said, "You may not know me. Let me introduce myself again. My uncle is Lin XX." Lin XX is a person who can be seen on TV news. No wonder he speaks in such a loud tone.
Wen Qing still shook her head and said, "I'm sorry, we are just a small stall and don't need any funds."
The man surnamed Lin left in disappointment. He didn't even care about a small winery in the first place. He thought it would be better to use the money to buy a winery in Gaul.
This is not just a casual remark, because there is a huge difference between exchanging Chinese currency for Gallic currency in the bank and exchanging it for Gallic currency in the black market. He can make a lot of money by helping people exchange foreign currency at the bank, and he doesn't need any capital. However, this Changxia Winery is so short-sighted that it still needs to be taught a lesson.
Wen Qing was still worried about the subsequent impact of rejecting Mr. Lin's investment, but after waiting for half a month, Mr. Lin did not show up, which meant that there was no problem. However, it also reminded Wen Qing to keep a low profile in everything.
Wen Qing still convened a meeting of cadres and arranged various tasks in production, finance, fire protection, sanitation and environmental protection. They were required to pay attention to production safety, food hygiene, and compliance with national laws. They were asked to conduct self-inspections in accordance with the various requirements of the relevant departments. In particular, the Finance Department was asked to immediately check whether taxes had been paid in recent years and whether invoices were issued in compliance with regulations. The department should check carefully and not be caught by others.
After all this work was done, the tools and equipment in the workshop, the grain in the warehouse, the place where the lees were piled, the water storage tank, the sieve, and the stainless steel fermentation tanks were all clean. Wen Qing also made two sets of work clothes for the workers, requiring them to change them every day, and the workers' health certificates to be checked every six months.
The distillation area also implements power-off and fire-off inspections before leaving get off work every day to prevent fire hazards. Tan Yuanfang also reviewed the account books for the past three years and paid all taxes.
Her precautions proved to be correct.
The tax authorities first checked the tax payment situation of Changxia Winery. They checked the tax payment of Changxia Winery against various clauses. However, Changxia Winery had never evaded taxes and paid all the taxes it should have. Moreover, many transactions are now done in cash, the winery has a lot of inventory, and the time between production and sales is very long, so not much tax can be collected in the sales link.
However, Wen Qing instructed Tan Yuanfang to receive the inspectors well. She also sent them various local specialties from time to time to make the inspectors feel comfortable. The tax authorities stayed in the factory for more than a month, and the results of the inspection showed that Changxia Winery did not violate any regulations.
As soon as the tax people left, people from the Health Bureau came again. However, when the seven of them entered the winery, they found that the entire winery was clean and tidy, with no flies or mosquitoes, and no sewage. The various winemaking utensils in the workshop were also clean. A man who looked more experienced asked Wen Qing to open the sewer and check their sewage discharge. Wen Qing suddenly felt angry. No matter what, the sewer was full of sewage, and checking it like this seemed like they were deliberately looking for trouble.
She calmly had someone open the sewage outlet. The people from the Health Bureau took a sample, asked Wen Qing to sign, and then left.
Indeed, they did not find any problems in the workshops, warehouses and various production links. They were really unwilling to accept this, but it was difficult for them to explain to the people above them, so they exercised the responsibility of the Environmental Protection Bureau to check the emission problems.
These people returned to the Health Bureau and handed the samples to the laboratory. The test results were much better than those of most wineries. A technician said, "Director, they did some purification before discharging the sewage, and it meets the discharge standards."
The man called the director said dissatisfiedly: "Can't you find any problems in a rural winery? This is because your inspectors are not doing their job. How can a company achieve 100% compliance with the standards?"
The inspection team leader said in embarrassment: "What should we do then?"
A man in a shirt and glasses smiled and said, "Chief Luo, maybe you didn't go to their koji workshop?"
Chief Luo retorted: "We have checked every workshop."
The man with glasses said, "Did you notice the fermentation of the koji? Did it grow mold?"
Chief Luo laughed and said, "I thought we overlooked something. Isn't it true that fermentation of koji will cause mold to form?"
The man with glasses smiled but said nothing. The director seemed to have thought of something and said, "Then the mold in their koji must have exceeded the limit."
The man with glasses praised: "Director is very professional, isn't it just that the mold exceeds the standard?"
Section Chief Luo was somewhat speechless and said, "We have submitted our report. You decide."
The director said unhappily, "Xiao Zhu, take someone with you."
Xiao Zhu happily replied, "Okay, Director, I will definitely get it done."
Wen Qing decided not to wait passively any longer. She found Wang Jianguo and learned about the identity of the man surnamed Lin. This man was the nephew of a senior government official surnamed Lin. She asked Gu Qicheng and Xie Yang what the origin of this man surnamed Lin was. It was confirmed that he was the nephew of Comrade Lin. His family also had other businesses, mainly in the news and entertainment industry. It was said that he was very interested in communications now. I didn't hear that their family wanted to invest in the brewing industry. It was probably Lin's personal idea.
