Chapter 140: You open a winery

The gratitude in Li Juan's eyes, the waiter couldn't understand it at all! But what does it matter? As long as Li Juan agrees to wait for half an hour, the considerable commission and the salary increase promised by the manager will be hers! She is now full of spittle counting bills, you must know that if she takes the commission of more than 100 yuan home, she can buy a big fat pig weighing more than 200 catties!

Although the salary in the restaurant is not low, but the waiter is out of town after all, this person is working hard, the rent has to be paid, the electricity bill has to be paid, although it costs money to work in the restaurant to eat, plus the consumption of buying clothes, cosmetics and so on is deducted, there is not much left to give to the family, therefore, this time the commission is also somewhat important.

"Then I won't disturb your meal, when our manager comes back, I will inform you as soon as possible, if you have any other instructions, you can call me at any time!" After getting Li Juan's promise, the waiter was relieved, and asked again if there were any other instructions, and after getting a reply that Li Juan had nothing to do, he turned around and left.

"Sister Juan, do you think this Wuyou sorghum wine is really that good? It seems that the only domestic wine with hundreds of yuan on the market is the national liquor**, right? After He Haiying and the other waiters left, she picked up the bottle of sorghum wine and looked left and right, but she couldn't see anything special about this wine, but Li Juan insisted on buying all this wine, which made her very puzzled. Anyway, there were no outsiders around, so she whispered the doubts in her heart.

He Haiying's family history is there, as people often say, I have never eaten pork and seen a pig walking! Although He Haiying is a daughter and usually doesn't drink liquor, she still knows what the most expensive wine on the market is, and the only wine that can be sold for hundreds of yuan is the national liquor. Of course, there are also wines that are more expensive than the national liquor**. However, those are not domestic, they are all imported from foreign countries, not to mention whether those wines are good or not, and the tariffs alone will exceed the price of national liquor.

"Usually you look at you very smart, but now how confused, didn't I say it at first. This Wuyou sorghum wine is imperial wine, do you know what it means? Li Juan tapped lightly on He Haiying's head, she didn't understand, he made it clear at the beginning, why didn't He Haiying understand?

"Sister Juan, don't knock, I'm stupid from you. Who doesn't know the imperial wine, the imperial wine, the imperial wine, is exclusively for the emperor to drink! He Haiying symbolically rubbed the place where Li Juan had knocked her. said dissatisfiedly, I don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing to know Li Juan, since she met Li Juan, she always likes to knock on her head, as if her head is a wooden fish that doesn't know how to hurt.

"Hehe, you're getting a little smarter now, yes, if this sorghum wine was placed in the previous dynasty, it would be imperial wine, but if you put it now. It is a veritable national drink! Li Juan said proudly, she was very proud that this Wuyou sorghum wine was produced in their village! At the same time, I am proud to be able to find such a large number of sake here. You must know that the distillery closed down more than 30 years ago and no longer produces it, so I don't know if these wines are the only ones left.

"You say this wine is equivalent to the national drink**?" He Haiying heard Li Juan say that this sorghum wine would be the national wine if it was placed now, and she didn't believe it, and she couldn't see anything special about it when she turned it upside down with the wine bottle.

"Yes, if this wine is put up to now, it will be the national wine. Its quality is even far beyond the current national liquor**! It's just that I'm afraid that there are only these dozens of cases of such wine in the world! Li Juan said sadly.

"How can this be all there is? Can't it be produced anymore? Anyway, it's sorghum brewing, we don't lack anything there, just don't lack sorghum, let's brew it again! Wang Jujun saw that Li Juan was a little sad, and his heart was sour for no reason. Comforted Li Juan.

"It's impossible to pull! Winemaking is not something that can be brewed with raw materials, but also a secret recipe for winemaking......" Li Juan saw that Wang Jujun didn't know anything about winemaking, so she gave him a general explanation of what she knew about winemaking.

"Isn't this wine brewed in our village's winery, can't we just find that royal winemaker Ryō Liang?" After listening to Li Juan's story, Wang Jujun also understood a little, thinking that the winery in the village was still there, as long as he could find the one who knew how to make wine, he could regenerate this kind of wine, so he said it casually.

"Hey! It's not that simple! This winery is easy to say, the one in the village can be rebuilt if it can't be used, but this secret recipe is impossible to find! Li Juan sighed and continued, "The reason why the distillery closed down was not because of the problem of this wine, but because the national system at that time was not perfect, and the leaders of the distillery had selfish motives, and the management was chaotic. And at that time, the level of national consumption was not good, unlike the electric lights and telephones now, upstairs and downstairs were not rare, at that time, most people as long as they could fill their stomachs was good, people only during the New Year's holidays, marriage and childbirth can drink a little wine......"

Li Juan paused for a few seconds when she said this, as if she felt sorry for the hard life of the older generation! Then he explained the things at that time to Wang Jujun and He Haiying.

"Don't look at it now, we're in the mall, and the salesperson is so enthusiastic about you that it even feels a little overdone. Thirty years ago, however, the situation was quite the opposite. At that time, the shops were all state-owned, so the malls felt that they were the emperor's daughters and did not worry about marrying, and they did not pay attention to customers at all. The goods are placed at the counter, and there is no open counter like the one now, so if you want to buy the goods, you have to let the salesperson take them. You have to talk to her (him) very politely, as if begging her, and if you make her angry, don't try to buy anything. If you are not satisfied with it and want to change it, she will start to be unhappy. As for the return of the goods after purchase, it is even more difficult, no matter what the reason, the seller does not return the goods.

Then there is the lack of goods, and many things cannot be bought. For example, new products such as TVs and washing machines are not available in stores. To buy these things, either by relationship or by ticket. Take this sorghum wine as an example, the selling price at that time was also 5 yuan, and the welfare issued to the employees in the factory was a ticket, which could be sold for 60 yuan. This means that it costs 120 yuan to buy a box of sorghum wine. However, the average person's salary is only more than forty or fifty yuan, and the highest is only fifty-five yuan and five cents.

There was also the fact that there was no competition from the wineries at that time. Although the distillery is built in our place, it does belong to the state, no matter how much is produced, and no matter what the quality of the wine is, it is sold by the store designated by the state, and there is no incentive mechanism, the salesperson sells more and sells less, it has nothing to do with her income, and the salesperson naturally does not take it seriously. There is no competition, which means that there is no competition for customers, managers are relatively inattentive to management, managers do not manage, sellers are not the same thing, once the national system reform, the distillery will naturally go bankrupt.

After the closure of the distillery, many people knew the real reason for the closure of the distillery, and wanted to find the secret recipe that Takura bought and brewed before opening the distillery, but they couldn't find it at all, and it was as if Takura had evaporated from the world. Until I got married...... "Although the knot has been untied, when it comes to marriage again, Li Juan can't help but feel a little sad, but it's just a few seconds of pause." Coughing deliberately to cover up, she continued.

"Until I got married, my father took out the Wuyou sorghum wine to entertain guests, and my friends in the county came to congratulate and drank the Wuyou sorghum wine, and they asked about the origin of the wine, because his family also opened a small winery and knew a little about wine. When he heard that this wine was brewed with the secret recipe of Kaoliang, he told everyone that this wine was afraid that it was the only surviving imperial wine, and it would never be possible to make such a good wine in the future, and when everyone asked him, he told everyone that his father was the apprentice of Ka Liang, and Ta Liang had passed away, and there was no written record of sorghum wine at all, and Ka Liang died suddenly in an accident, and he didn't come before leaving to tell the secret recipe! ”

"Dead ...... He's dead! Wang Jujun heard Li Juan say that the secret recipe for brewing sorghum wine died and shouted in annoyance, but then he thought that thirty years had passed, and if he lived to this day, he would be a hundred years old, and he had never heard of a hundred-year-old person, so it was not strange that he died of Liang Liang, but it was a pity that the secret recipe for brewing sorghum wine was unfounded.

"By the way, Mangzi, you are a zero-hour worker at the Post and Telecommunications Bureau, right?" Li Juan did not give a positive response to Wang Jujun's chagrin, and the topic changed and talked about Wang Jujun's work.

"Hmmm! Yes, I'm temporary, what's wrong? Wang Jujun didn't adapt to Li Juan's sudden change of topic at all, and when he saw Li Juan asking, he asked symbolically.

"Have you ever wondered what you would do if the Post and Telecommunications Bureau didn't use temporary workers?" Li Juan asked worriedly, as if she knew something.

To be honest, Wang Jujun really didn't think about such a problem, although the salary in the post and telecommunications bureau was not high, it was quite stable, and he had never been sloppy about his work, so he never thought that one day he would lose this job. But now that Li Juan asked about it, he had no choice but to say frankly, "I didn't think about it!" ”

"Otherwise, you can open a winery!" Li Juan saw that Wang Jujun hadn't thought about what would happen in the future, so she said the idea that had just formed in her mind. (To be continued......)
