On Sunday, when the sky was hazy, there was a knock on the door of the restaurant.

Qin Fan was sleepy with his bag on his back, went out and got into the car, Junzi didn't say much, he drove quickly, and after a while, Jia Sheng and Xue Ting got into the car, followed by a small tail ---- Xuemei.

"Why are you here?" Qin Fan, who was sitting in the co-pilot, yawned and turned back to ask Xuemei.

"You're busy, I'm going to play. It seems that she didn't sleep well last night, Xuemei replied listlessly. Qin Fan looked at Jia Sheng, but Jia Sheng pointed at Xue Ting.

Qin Fan didn't want to think about it either, tilted his head and fell asleep again.

When he woke up again, it was already a bright winter sun outside the car, and the car was full of laughter. I don't know what Jia Sheng said, the big and small beauties smiled and leaned back.

"How long will it take?" Qin Fan asked the soldier who was driving.

"It's still more than half an hour away. Jia Sheng, who was sitting in the back seat, replied.

The condition of the county road is much better than Qin Fan imagined, there are tall poplar trees on both sides of the road, behind the trees is farmland, and in the vast farmland is a forest with more than a dozen farmhouses hidden in the background. Not far away are high and low mountains. After crossing the three mountain passes and entering the belly of the mountain, it is another view.

At about nine o'clock, the car stopped, and it was already the destination of the second trip.

Qin Fan stood beside the car with his legs slightly numb, raising his eyes and looking around, just like the village he saw along the road, but it was slightly larger, there were about one hundred and fifty or sixty villages, and the houses of each household were built on the mountain. Qin Fan and his entourage walked into the entrance of the village, and the entrance of the village greeted two farmers in blue cotton jackets.

"Boss Zhao, you're here. The two warmly shook Zhao Jiasheng's hand.

"Village Chief Chen, Liu Zhishu, hello, Daqiang, what about people?" asked Jiasheng. While he was talking, a man stood up from the farmland not far away, and while fastening his trouser belt, he ran towards this side, and shouted from afar: "Uncle, uncle, I'm here." ”

Jiasheng scolded with a smile: "Lazy people have a lot of and urine." ”

When the other two saw the appearance of Qin Fan and Xuemei's students, they just nodded slightly at them. Turning his head and inviting Jiasheng and his party to sit in the village committee, Jiasheng turned around and asked Qin Fan, and asked them to lead them to the winery to have a look, the village chief and the branch secretary glanced at each other, and then looked at Qin Fan.

What they were thinking in their hearts, Qin Fan didn't care anymore, and asked them to accompany them to the winery.

As in his previous life, as in other wineries, there were almost no people in the farmhouse, except for the empty bottles in front of the farmhouse.

After turning a few farmhouses, you will see a wall of earthen ramparts, and a wooden plaque hanging next to the small door reads: Estuary Winery.

When you enter the factory, you say that it is a winery, but it is actually a wine workshop, several bungalows, and the right is used as a workshop and warehouse. According to Jiasheng, this distillery is a village-run distillery, now due to poor management, has been completely suspended, in fact, the annual output is not high, which may be related to the local wine-making process, sales due to the fierce competition in the market and government regulation, the already weak distillery did not even have the time to parry the defeat.

Think about the liquor market at this time, the ex-factory prices of the top three famous liquors such as Moutai, Wuliangye and Luzhou Laojiao plummeted, the price of Moutai plummeted by half, and the prices of Wuliangye and Luzhou Laojiao even fell to about 50 yuan for a time.

In this case, ordinary liquor will naturally follow suit and reduce prices, and some liquor with small scale, poor marketing, and unstable market occupation will naturally plummet in sales, and it is normal for unsalable products and capital breakdown.

And Kawaguchi Distillery is one such failure. But in the previous life, after the New Year, the liquor industry would usher in a period of rapid development, especially in the next five years, advertising and marketing would make the liquor industry show an almost crazy growth momentum. Of course, in the case of determining that the course of history has not changed.

After turning around, in Qin Fan's eyes, there was nothing he was satisfied with. In his previous life, he had inspected large and small distilleries and had a certain understanding of the production and operation of baijiu, but one of the things that he hated the most was that there was a stinky ditch behind every distillery.

Village Chief Chen and Liu Zhishu no longer have the eyesight to see, and they also know that the handsome boy who walked in front is the main master today. Although he muttered in his heart, he still came up to ask Qin Fan diligently, what did he think about this, Qin Fan just shook his head slightly at Jiasheng.

At this time, Daqiang, a distant relative of Jiasheng, said: "Uncle, you haven't seen it, there is an ancient cellar pond in our village, which is said to be from the Ming Dynasty. ”

"Where?" Qin Fan asked with interest.

"It's right behind the village. Daqiang replied.

When Daqiang led everyone to the village, he saw a well behind a row of farmhouses, and a small stele was lying next to it, erasing the dust on it and revealing the words on the stele. Engraved on it: "Hekou Dexing Wine Cellar Pool", the small characters next to it are vaguely the words of the fifteenth year of Ming Hongzhi.

Qin Fan looked at it carefully and determined that this was a fermentation cellar, but it was not from the Ming Dynasty and it still needs to be verified. He looked up again and asked Village Chief Chen if they had used the cellar mud in it. The village chief and the branch secretary shook their heads blankly, indicating that they did not know.

Qin Fan smiled and said to Jiasheng: "I knew earlier, invite Lao Jiang from the Cultural Relics Bureau." ”

Although Jia Sheng was very anxious in his heart, he couldn't see it on his face. Qin Fan walked up to him and whispered, "You can talk about it." ”

As for how to cooperate and how to invest, Qin Fan didn't want to know too much. It was still early, Jiasheng and Xue Ting discussed the following matters with the village chief and the branch secretary, and Qin Fan and Xuemei were accompanied by Daqiang to play around the village.

"It's Sister Xuemei, we still have a fun place here. Daqiang said diligently.

"Daqiang, we are all relatives, don't be so polite, just call me Xiaomei. In the face of Daqiang's diligence, Xuemei was a little uncomfortable.

Qin Fan smiled slightly, it is rare for children in the mountains to see beautiful girls, and it is rare to have the courage to talk to girls. Follow Daqiang over the small col behind the village.

"Xiaomei, you see this is it. Daqiang pointed to the spring water in the col and said.

"Brother Da Qiang, what's so fun about this?" Xue Mei asked suspiciously.

"Ha, our spring here is hot. Daqiang said proudly. Xuemei looked at the slightly steaming spring water in amazement.

"Really, Brother Qin, it's true. Xuemei tried it with her hand, and the slightly hot spring water warmed her slightly cool little hand.

Qin Fan didn't think it was strange that not far from here, several hot spring sanatoriums developed in later generations attracted a large number of tourists.

"In our place, adults and children bathe here in the winter. Daqiang said proudly again.

Qin Fan saw Xuemei suddenly retract her hand, and couldn't help laughing.

Xuemei also felt that she was out of shape, and walked to Qin Fan's side timidly, pinching Qin Fan vigorously. Qin Fan endured the pain and explained: "Silly girl, this is living water, I don't want you to think like that." Daqiang also felt that he had said the wrong thing, and laughed on the side.

"There's another spring over there, isn't it also a hot spring?" Qin Fan asked, pointing to the spring in another place in order to avoid embarrassment between the two.

"Oh, it's not, but the water is lukewarm, not as hot as the water here. Daqiang thought for a while, and then continued: "The fish in that water are very strange and can bite. ”

Xuemei's little face turned white when she heard this, Qin Fan patted her hand and asked, "Isn't it a fish that will bite people to death?"

Daqiang shook his head and said: "I haven't heard of this, but I have heard from the people in the village that as long as a person's foot reaches into the water, there will be many fish bite your foot immediately." ”

Qin Fan smiled and said: Isn't this the fish therapy of the later generations?
