Guizhou, Huairen City Railway Station exit.

"Master, I want to ask, do you know where that Quhe Distillery is?"

At the exit of the train station, a young man asks a taxi driver, behind the young man, there is a burly man, a girl and a little boy. Needless to say, the five people in this line are naturally Qin Yu and them.

"Quhe, that's on the side of Moutai Town, some distance from here. ”

"Then the troublesome master sent us over. ”

Quhe Distillery is an industrial stake obtained by Qin Yu in Hong Kong, and the compensation that Li Minghao received from Sun Yang gave the shares of Quhe Distillery to Qin Yu, and Qin Yu's trip to Guizhou was for this Quhe Distillery.

"A few bosses are here to do the liquor business. The driver asked with a smile while watching.

"Oh, how can the master see it. Qin Yu asked with a smile.

"Our Huairen is famous for liquor, and it is the liquor capital of our country, and as soon as the boss came, you asked Quhe Distillery, and it was almost time for liquor dealers to bid, so you don't have to guess to know that several bosses must be in the liquor business. The driver said one by one, his expression was quite proud.

"Yes, it is said that Huairen is the wine capital, and Moutai is the national wine, so let's come and take a look. Qin Yu replied with the driver's words.

"But a few bosses, there is a sentence that I don't know whether to say or not. The driver may have sensed that Qin Yu's attitude was more kind, so he glanced at Qin Yu and said.

"What does the master say, we are also coming to your city for the first time, if there is anything that needs attention, I hope the master will give more advice. ”

"Actually, it's nothing, it's just that the Quhe Distillery you are going to doesn't sell well in our city, and this Quhe Distillery is an old factory. In fact, it was first with the Moutai family, and later it was separated from each other. Quhe liquor is actually similar to Moutai, but the director of the factory does not know how to work around, and the price is the same as other people's Moutai, just imagine, you are a strange distillery, even if the taste is the same as Moutai's, but people must buy Moutai, and Quhe liquor was full of strength to compete with Moutai, and there was too much production. It couldn't be sold, and finally it began to gradually decay. ”

"Although the Quhe Distillery changed its strategy later, it is no longer the original, and has gradually become a second-rate distillery, and in the past few years, because of the wine adulteration incident, sales have plummeted, and we locals do not buy Quhe wine. ”

"And there's such a thing. ”

Listening to the driver's master's words, Qin Yu was also stunned, according to what the driver's master said. Quhe Distillery is no longer in operation and is about to go out of business, so his 50% stake is about to go down the drain.

"It's a good thing, buddy didn't come here for the money. Qin Yu comforted himself in his heart. He will control the shares of the Quhe Distillery, not to extract dividends from it, and even the Quhe Distillery is in trouble. Not bad news for him.

"The front is Moutai Town, and the road we are driving on now is called Zuimei Avenue. ”

"It's a very distinctive name. Hearing the driver master say the name of the road they were driving on, Qin Yu smiled. The name Zuimei Avenue and Wine Capital is veritable.

"We have a lot of roads with names like this, who calls us the capital of wine? The driver's face was proud, the production place of the national liquor Moutai, and the title of the liquor capital was the pride of all their Huairen people.

"Sichuan salt goes to Guizhou, and Qin businessmen gather in Moutai. Looking at the unique Moutai Town, Qin Yu chanted in a low voice.

"Boss, you've heard this too. The driver's ears were sharp, and when he heard Qin Yu's words, his expression was a little surprised, he didn't expect Qin Yu to know this proverb about Moutai Town at such a young age.

"I like to study geography and culture, so I've read a little bit about it. ”

Seeing the tank and a trace of confusion on the faces of Jiang Tingting's sister and brother, Qin Yu explained with a smile: "This Guizhou is one of the few provinces in our country that does not produce salt, and salt is mainly transported by the surrounding provinces such as Sichuan and Hunan, so in ancient times, there was a saying that Sichuan salt went to Guizhou, and because of the smooth flow of the Chishui River, Moutai Town became a gathering place for salt merchants, and a large number of salt merchants transported salt to Moutai Town, and then transported it to other cities in Guizhou through Guò Moutai Town, so it is also called Qin Merchants Ju Moutai." ”

"Moutai Town is thriving day by day driven by the salt industry. Business travelers from all directions gathered, salt carriers, caravans and ships were endless, all industries were prosperous, and the market was prosperous. ”

"And these salt merchants are all rich people, and those who can afford to buy and sell salt in ancient times are all big families, just like in our modern world, which specializes in the trading of rare mines, salt is very scarce and precious in ancient times. ”

"The salt merchants are all wrapped in their pockets and have always lived a luxurious life, and Moutai Town is located in a poor and remote area, there is no music of bamboo orchestra, and there is no fun of cockfighting, salt merchants are bored, often drink for fun, so some businessmen see this business opportunity, open a distillery in Moutai Town, brew liquor, this is the earliest origin of Moutai Town liquor. ”

After Qin Yu explained, the tank and Jiang Tingting's sister and brother showed a sudden expression of realization on their faces, it turned out that the development of Moutai Town still has such a history.

"This boss, you are really amazing, you know more about the situation in Moutai Town than our locals, and I don't know as much as you boss. The driver gave Qin Yu a thumbs up.

"This is also because your Moutai Town is famous, so I will find out, if it is changed to other cities, I can't say. Qin Yu smiled modestly, it was his preference to study the customs and culture of various places, how could he not learn about such a famous place as Moutai Town.

"Boss, here, there is the Quhe Distillery in front. ”

Chatting with the driver, listening to the driver tell some interesting things about Moutai Town, time passed very quickly, and when the car made the last turn, Qin Yu's eyes fell on the gate of a factory in front.

"Mr. Qin, this is Quhe Distillery, isn't it too ...... It's a little chilly. Qin Yu and a few people got out of the car, and the tank looked at the factory gate in front of him, which did not even have a guardrail, and said to Qin Yu.

"Let's go in and have a look. Qin Yu's expression was also a little surprised, the dilapidated of this Quhe Distillery was even stricter than he imagined, if it weren't for the four big words on the top of the building in front of him: Quhe Distillery, he wouldn't dare to imagine that this factory was still in operation, it seemed that the driver was right, Quhe Distillery was indeed at the end of the mountain.

Qin Yu and the others walked into the distillery like this, and no one came out to stop them, the Quhe Distillery building was one, closest to Qin Yu and the others, but Qin Yu did not choose to enter the building, but walked around the side of the building towards a few small workshops on the side, where the liquor was brewed.

"So much food?"

Before he walked into the workshop, Qin Yu saw bags of grain piled up on the open ground, and after walking up and smelling it, Qin Yu found that the grain had not been distilled.

"So much grain is just left in the open air, if it rains, won't all of it have to be moldy?" Qin Yu frowned for the first time, he didn't care if he wanted to say that the factory was dilapidated, but he didn't cherish the grain so much, how did the administrator of this winery be?

"Hey, who are you, how did you come into the distillery casually?"

Finally, Qin Yu and the others met the first person, it was a worker in blue overalls, and when he saw Qin Yu and a few people, he quickly ran over and asked.

"Master, your grain is piled up outside, and you are not afraid of mold on rainy days?" Qin Yu took out a cigarette from his pocket and handed it to the worker who came running.

"What kind of mold, this one just came out of the warehouse, and it will be shipped away in a while. The worker glanced at the cigarette in Qin Yu's hand, a bright light flashed in his eyes, he took it with a smile, his attitude was much better, and after hearing Qin Yu's question, he sighed and replied: "The grain stored in the warehouse has been almost moved in the past few days, this is the last batch, and I am afraid that this winery will really close down." ”

"The winery has reached this point?" Qin Yu was a little surprised, and even pulled away the stored grain, this is not going to make wine.

"Yes, since the fake water incident, the distillery has been failing, and if it weren't for the director of the factory, he would have closed down a long time ago. "What kind of ginseng fake water, master, can you explain it in detail." Qin Yu asked curiously.

"Originally, I couldn't tell you about this, but now that the distillery is going to close down, I'll tell you about it. The worker's expression suddenly became a little angry, and he said:

"The year before last, my co-workers and I were filling wine in the cellar, and suddenly a group of people rushed in, claiming to be from the Food Safety Administration, and reporters, and as soon as they came in, they opened the wine in the jar in the wine cellar, and then tested it with some instrument, and finally found out that our wine was mixed with water. ”

"But this is not possible at all, the wine in the cellar is packaged by me and a few workers, absolutely pure wine, it is impossible to participate in the water, and those who rushed in seemed to know in advance that there was a problem with the wine in those wine jars, and they went straight to those jars of wine, and then our factory director personally tested, only the jars of wine opened by them had problems, and the purity of the wine in the other jars was normal. There must be a ghost here, someone is trying to clean up our winery. ”

"And what about later?" Hearing the worker's last words, Qin Yu's eyes froze, and he continued to ask.

"Later, our winery was reported by the newspaper, and we had to pay a fine to write an inspection, and the people in the city knew that there was a problem with the wine in our winery, so there were no locals to order wine in our winery, and we could only rely on some foreign wine merchants to maintain the business, but I don't know how, the winery wine was reported by CCTV again, this time, even the provincial market began to gradually decrease, and the wine in the cellar could not be sold at all.
