Chapter 155: Medicinal Wine
"Sister Xianglan, you won't report that Cao Depeng directly for embezzlement of public funds? When the time comes, he will have to vomit as much as he swallows. ”
Qin Xiaolong couldn't help but ask.
"I would have liked to, but a group of them deceived and concealed it, and the matter was done without leakage, I couldn't find any evidence at all, even if I reported it, it would be useless."
Bai Xianglan smiled bitterly.
Now is the era of the rule of law, everything has to talk about evidence, and without evidence, the police will not even file a case based on her mouth.
"As for the fake wine on the market, why don't you go and crack down, at least you should make an example of the monkeys. But you just let them buy and sell under the banner of Jade Emperor Wine, aren't you digging your own grave? ”
Qin Xiaolong questioned again.
"You think things are too simple, in a Jade Emperor Town, there are hundreds of winemakers, and almost all of them are buying and selling under the banner of Jade Emperor Wine."
"Over the years, the chain of interests has been involved too much, and some people are standing behind them and even some big bosses in the city, not to mention that I am a weak woman, even if it is the leader of our Lin City, it is estimated that he is weak."
Bai Xianglan didn't want to fight fakes, but the cost of fighting fakes far outweighed the benefits, and she might inadvertently provoke some big shots, so she could only turn a blind eye.
This would have been nothing if it had been in the heyday of the Jade Emperor Distillery in the past, but now that the Jade Emperor Distillery is in decline, this is undoubtedly the last straw that broke the camel's back in the city, and Bai Xianglan can't do anything.
After listening to Bai Xianglan's story, Qin Xiaolong realized that there was such a complicated stake behind this.
It's no wonder that the Jade Emperor Distillery has plummeted.
But then again, it was quite good for his plans.
"Sister Xianglan, have you ever thought about selling the winery?"
Qin Xiaolong changed his words.
"I have thought about it, in recent days, I have also reached out to some bosses, but their bids are too low to meet my expectations."
Bai Xianglan said truthfully.
"I don't know how much money you're going to sell before you sell the winery?"
Qin Xiaolong continued to ask.
"Sixty million, this is my bottom line, but the highest bid is less than 30 million at present, which I definitely can't accept."
Bai Xianglan sighed and said.
For the sake of the winery, she has been dying of sorrow recently, but unfortunately, she can only watch this once glorious winery die step by step, and that feeling really makes her uncomfortable.
"Sixty million, it's not too expensive."
Qin Xiaolong stroked his chin and whispered.
Since the last time he learned that Su Yafu was stuck by the neck of the wine merchant Li Wenkun, Qin Xiaolong actually planned to help Su Yafu break the monopoly situation.
Originally, his plan was to buy Jade Emperor Wine and make medicinal wines with varying successes and supply them to Su Yafu.
But after learning that the Jade Emperor Distillery was about to go out of business, he temporarily thought about whether he could buy the distillery directly.
In this way, the distillery will be his own in the future, and it will be easier for him to move forward with his plan.
"Sister Xianglan, I want to buy your winery, but you need to give me a little time to raise money."
Qin Xiaolong got straight to the point.
"How much time do you want?"
Bai Xianglan asked.
"A week at most."
Qin Xiaolong thought for a moment and replied.
A week was enough for him to verify whether the medicine and wine were profitable.
As long as the medicinal wine is popular, he will take the entire Jade Emperor Distillery even if he takes out a loan, but if the medicinal wine can't be sold, then he won't buy such a burden back.
"Okay, then I'll give you a week, before that, even if someone gives out 60 million, I won't sell the distillery."
Although Bai Xianglan said so, she knew in her heart that with Cao Depeng playing right and wrong outside, no one would pay 60 million to buy a winery, so she might as well sell Qin Xiaolong a favor.
"Thank you, Sister Xianglan, then I'll pick up the goods now, and we'll talk when I raise funds."
After Qin Xiaolong said goodbye to Bai Xianglan, he was ready to leave.
"Xiaolong, you want ten cases of Jade Emperor Wine, right?"
Bai Xianglan stopped Qin Xiaolong.
"Yes."
Qin Xiaolong nodded.
"You just wait here, I'll have someone bring it to you, and these ten cases of wine will be your medical expenses for helping me heal."
Bai Xianglan continued.
"No, no, your winery can't pay your salary now, how can I still take wine for nothing."
Qin Xiaolong hurriedly refused.
"Don't be polite to me, even if these ten cases of wine are all sold, it will only be a few thousand yuan, which is a drop in the bucket for me."
Bai Xianglan forced a smile and smiled.
"Okay then."
Unable to refuse now, Qin Xiaolong could only accept it.
After a while, someone sent ten boxes of Jade Emperor wine.
Originally, Bai Xianglan also said that she would invite Qin Xiaolong to lunch, but he refused, and he took Zhao Yongmei back to the village.
After returning to the village, Qin Xiaolong gave Zhao Yongmei five boxes of Jade Emperor Wine, and he kept five boxes for himself.
After lunch, Qin Xiaolong began to get busy.
It took him a busy afternoon to make all these Jade Emperor wines into medicinal wines.
According to the different medicinal herbs added, the medicinal wine is suitable for different people, but he is most satisfied with one of the medicinal wines with ambergris.
This ambergris was accidentally discovered by him when he went up the mountain to collect medicine before, and it is a strange commodity in the market at present, and it is almost impossible to buy it with money.
Many Chinese medicine practitioners know that ambergris can replenish qi and invigorate blood, but what few people know is that its biggest effect is actually to help men improve their combat effectiveness!
It's just that if you want to really play the effect of ambergris, you must match the powder of Morinda officinalis, epimedium weed, and fried nine spice worms.
After brewing the medicinal wine, Qin Xiaolong drank a glass first.
In less than ten minutes, his body became hot and hard as iron!
"Damn, this medicine is too terrifying."
Qin Xiaolong was also shocked in his heart.
You must know that his body control is very strong, and this reaction is still so big, if it is replaced by an ordinary person, this glass of wine is estimated to fight to the death!
However, he soon realized that this recipe was originally for monks, and it was not effective enough to make sense.
If he wanted to popularize the medicine, he would have to make a new adjustment to the prescription.
It's just that the matter of adjustment must be put to a later date, and his top priority now is to release it quickly, otherwise he will die uncomfortably.
Qin Xiaolong made a call to Liu Xiangqiao, and after confirming that Liu Xiangqiao was at home, he went out.
However, when passing by Liu Cai's house, Qin Xiaolong suddenly stopped.
He found that Liu Cai's house had become as crowded as yesterday, and a large group of villagers surrounded his house, and people kept coming out happily with cooking oil and rice.
"Uncle Wu Fa, did you buy this oil and rice from Liu Cai's family?"
Qin Xiaolong stopped a more familiar villager and asked.
"It's not a purchase, it's a free gift."
Wang Wufa replied with a smile on his face.
