After the twentieth day of the lunar month, the footsteps of the new year are getting closer and closer. Just when people are preparing New Year's goods to go to relatives and are busy celebrating the New Year. According to the reflection of Gu Bo and others, there are many more people who have come to Gujiazhuang to visit relatives and friends in the past one or two days, and many people who have nothing to do with each other have also mixed into the village in various names, and their words are intentionally or unintentionally introduced to the brewing of new wine.

Gu Haotian had already expected the peeps that the new wine might attract when it came out, so he ordered Gu Bo to take advantage of the local people early and select some clever local team members to scatter in Zhuangzi to spy on them. Unexpectedly, these things came in such a hurry, and after understanding from the side, some people were simply attachés of some merchants, and they never went back at all, and stayed directly after the auction, and found some connections in the local area and mixed into Zhuangzi.

For all the personnel of the new wine workshop, Gu Haotian can only say that he basically knows in his heart, the so-called knowing people and faces, who can guarantee that they will not defect in the face of huge temptation. In addition, in the face of huge market demand, the next step to expand the production of new wine is a sure thing, and more personnel and places will be needed at that time, and the prevention work will be more difficult.

For the new wine-making location, Gu Haotian actually has a suitable choice in his heart, that is, Liangshan, if you build a wine-making workshop on Liangshan, even if the scale is large, there is no need to worry about the problem of confidentiality prevention. At present, there is enough food on Liangshan, and Zhu Fu's joining does not need to purchase raw wine, as for the transfer of equipment and personnel, it is not a problem, the current key is how the house on the mountain is built. So he decided to go to Liangshan to have a look, and by the way, bring some New Year's goods to visit the people over there.

In winter, the lake is very cold, and there is a stove in the cabin, a pot of fish soup, and a pot of new wine. Wen Huanzhang sat at the top, Gu Haotian accompanied him, and Pan Jinlian stood behind waiting, probably the first time he went out by boat, with a novel face.

"You just go out and play with Bian Xiang and them, you don't need to wait here." Gu Haotian understood her heart and let her out.

Pan Jinlian also understood the temperament of the petty officials after a few days of getting along, and Bian Xiang and Chunya and others also slowly got acquainted, yesterday I saw Chunya wearing the clothes sent by Bian Xiang, she also joked, the shy Chunya was flushed, so she hesitated a little and went out.

"You're a young kid, but you're not right." Wen Huanzhang joked.

"How dare the boy, it's just the right thing." He reported Pan Jinlian's matter to the two masters, and also took him to meet these two. The two were also amazed by Pan Jinlian's stunning beauty, and both warned him that young people should put their careers first and not mistake women too early. Gu Haotian naturally made a guarantee, and the two of them were relieved when they saw that they were young and old.

This time, he only invited Wen Huanzhang to go to Liangshan together, and he also had some plans. Now that Liangshan's stalls are getting bigger and bigger, and the escort team plus craftsmen and migrant workers are hundreds of people, if the winery is moved there in the next step, there will be displaced people who may come, and Liangshan will foresee what kind of scale it will be. But now the Ruan brothers, Du Qian, Song Wan, Ma Qiang and others on the mountain are not talents who are in charge alone, and the most suitable person around him is this resourceful Master Wen, so he invited him to come over and see if he could say anything.

The fish is fresh and the wine is fragrant, and in the gossip of the master and apprentice, the boat has arrived at the golden beach pier in Liangshan. Greeted by a crowd of people, everyone went ashore. Not to mention that in only one month, Liangshan has undergone a lot of changes, which really responds to the sentence "Shibei should be impressed in three days".

In addition to the grain stored in Golden Beach, it has been moved to the mountain, the house is much cleaner, and a special granary has been built on the side. Ruan Xiaoer said next to him that this is all the credit of Tao Zongwang. As we walked up the mountain, more changes appeared in front of everyone's eyes. The road up the mountain has been built into a five-meter-wide stone road, and the two turning points in the middle have left open space for building barriers, and at the end of the road, a dangerous pass has begun to take shape, and in front of the completed gate, Du Qian, Song Wan, Tao Zongwan, and Ma Laosan and others have been waiting there.

Gu Haotian greeted everyone, and finally grabbed Tao Zongwang's hand, and even said that it was hard, Tao Zongwang was moved, and everyone also secretly sighed that the little officials knew people.

Entering from the pass, the large flat land in front of you has been sorted out very flat, in the middle is a straight stone road, leading straight to the flat land on the second step on the opposite side, and the gentle slope around the square has been built in a staggered and orderly manner. Gu Haotian compared his original plan, basically in line with his own ideas, some of them are innovative, for example, when Tao Zongwang came, he heard Gu Haotian say that in the future, his family and other personnel will be resettled in the back mountain, so he designed the migrant factory house to look like a barracks, and it will not be difficult to change it to a barracks in the future.

Gu Haotian's current most concerned liquor workshop is located on a small hillside that extends out on the right side of the square, and a large courtyard with five entrances is built according to the mountain, surrounded by high walls, and only a ridge is connected to the square at the front door, and the other three sides are steep slopes, which is really a good location. There is a small courtyard built at the place where the ridge meets the square, and there are several rows of houses around it, Tao Zongwang introduced that it is the wine workshop steward's room and the place of work and residence, and the workshop and the place of residence are two points and one line are also convenient for future production.

The flat land on the second step is being sorted out, and this will be the office of the future leadership of Liangshan, that is, the Juyi Hall in the Water Margin. The back mountain has not had time to develop, but the road to the back mountain, Tao Zongwang has roughly planned, there is one on the left and right, the one on the right already has a foundation, a few people tried to walk for a while, just around the main peak, the valley of the back mountain is several miles long in front of you.

It was already evening after walking in a circle, thanks to the road that had been repaired, and Gu Haotian and the others stayed in the management room outside the wine workshop that night. Ma Laosan had already led people to prepare a few tables of banquets, Gu Haotian invited Wen Huanzhang to sit down, but Wen Huanzhang refused to die, he is a smart person, of course he knows who should sit in the main seat at this time.

So Gu Haotian had to sit by himself, and then Wen Huanzhang, the Ruan family brothers, Du Qian, Song Wan, Bian Xiang, Ma Qi, Lei Heng, Tao Zongwang and others sat down one after another. Looking at a table of heroes, Gu Haotian couldn't help but sigh with emotion, a few months ago it was a barren mountain and wilderness, but now he can have a feast here, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is a miracle.

"In just over a month, Liangshan has become like this under the hard work of everyone, you have worked hard, and you have written it down in your heart, and thank you for borrowing a glass of thin wine here." Then raise a glass and drink with the crowd.

"The New Year is coming, but there are still many things to do on Liangshan, the most important thing is that the construction of houses must be more and faster, when there are a group of displaced people up the mountain around the New Year, they must be resettled, and they still have to work hard." He toasted again, and everyone drank it again.

Everyone had a good time that night, but Gu Haotian and Wen Huanzhang didn't drink much. In a room on the second floor of the small courtyard, Gu Haotian asked Pan Jinlian to make a pot of good tea, and the two were drinking tea and talking.

"The foundation of Liangshan is already in its infancy, and now there are nearly 300 guards on the mountain, more than 300 craftsmen and migrant workers, etc., and the wine workshop must be moved here after the year, and there will be an unknown number of displaced people who will come soon, at least more than 1,000 people at that time, and the food is also worry-free for a while, but the disciples of this leader are very entangled." Gu Haotian toasted a cup of tea and stopped talking.

Wen Huanzhang has also been in Gujiazhuang for some time, and he is also very clear about the current situation of Gu Haotian's subordinates, such as the Ruan family brothers, Du Qian, Song Wan, Ma Qiang, Lei Heng, and Tao Zongwang on Liangshan are not talents who lead the overall situation, and Bian Xiang, Ma Xian, Zhu Gui, Gu Bo, Xiao Rang, and the newcomer Jisheng who stayed in the village also have no talent in this area. Zhou Tong can't stay in Gujiazhuang for a long time, at least at present, it seems impossible, and he wants to invite his apprentice to come with him this time.

"Then who do you think can be entrusted with this?"

"There is one person in the disciple's heart, who can be compared to Zhang Liang, Xiao He, and Wolong and Phoenix." After that, he picked up the teacup and knelt down in front of Wen Huanzhang, "Liangshan's foundation is extremely important to the disciples, and I implore the master to help me." ”

"Get up, even if you can trust as a teacher, I will do my best." Wen Huanzhang is clear about this disciple's talents and ideas, he originally left Tokyo with Zhou Tong and came here, originally with the intention of seeing the strange, but after a period of time, he was also impressed by the ambition and courage of this young disciple, coupled with the extreme disappointment in the imperial court, he had the idea of following this disciple to break a new path.

At the moment, Gu Haotian was overjoyed, and Liangshan had no worries. got up and saluted the master again, Wen Huanzhang stretched out his hand to help him up, the two held hands and looked at each other speechlessly, but they were heart-to-heart and passionate.

That night, Gu Haotian was very excited, and he got carried away and hugged Pan Jinlian firmly, making her face red and red, and her heart was like a deer.
