Chapter 160 Store
Master Xiao Hu has completed the decoration of the back room of No. 48 Majiaxiang. Wen Qing brought Liu Quan to see it and also called three newly hired people to deliver the goods.
This is the first specialty store of Changxia Wine Industry. The decoration is not luxurious, but the three large glass windows are quite eye-catching.
The three rooms are connected internally, serving as both a retail store and a reception office for urban dealers. In the future, urban dealers can pick up goods directly here without having to go to Erxia Village.
Wen Qing chose an auspicious day to open the business. This street is within the Second Ring Road and is considered a relatively prosperous street.
The Spring Festival is coming soon, and Liuquan has started opening promotions, such as buy one box get one free, point rewards, etc. The business of the specialty store is becoming more and more prosperous.
Before the Spring Festival, Wen Qing cleared out all the slaughtered poultry in the space.
She hadn't sold any chickens outside all year. She just killed them regularly and put them in the warehouse. Before she knew it, she had more than 5 chickens. She kept some for her employees as benefits and sold the rest, making a profit of 15 yuan.
New Year benefits were also distributed to several workers in the winery, grain company and orchard, in addition to year-end bonuses.
Liu Quan, Wang Jianguo and Tan Yuanfang each received 2000 yuan, three people from the grain company each received 1000 yuan, five foresters in the orchard and the department head of the winery each received 500 yuan, and other employees received 200 yuan. Everyone was very happy.
This year, Changxia Winery earned more than 54 yuan. After deducting the aid to Erxia Village, the remaining 50 yuan was distributed to shareholders.
Erxia Village accounted for 10% and received 5 yuan, Liuquan and Wang Jianguo accounted for 5% and received 2.5 yuan, Tan Yuanfang accounted for 2.5% and received 1.25 yuan, and Wen Qing received 38.75 yuan.
The grain company made 30 yuan and the orchard made 23 yuan.
The 4 yuan given to Erxia Village was handed over to the village chief Liu. According to the village standards, it was distributed to four five-guarantee households, two students who were admitted to university, one poor household with a sick family member, and three needy families with more than one child. Each household was given one to two thousand yuan, and the remaining money was kept by the brigade headquarters.
The families that received the money were very grateful to the winery. Although other families did not receive any relief money, the money from selling hawthorns in the village was distributed to the villagers on a per capita basis, and everyone got a share.
The villagers sold their surplus grain, woven baskets, winnowing baskets and other items to the winery. As long as they were diligent, they could always make money from the winery.
This year's Spring Festival, Zhuang Xien planned to take his family back to his hometown to celebrate the New Year.
Wen Qing told Zhuang Xien that she was going back to Yunnan, first to deliver the goods to Zhao Wei, and then to go back to Xiangyang Village to take a look.
Zhuang Xien originally wanted Wen Qing to go back with them, but Wen Qing refused. She decided to spend the Spring Festival alone because she was really fed up with their family.
Zhuang Xien was in the wrong, so he could only tell his parents that Wen Qing was going back to her hometown and would not be returning to Xijiang with them.
Zhuang's father and mother knew that their actions were inappropriate, so they could only swallow their dissatisfaction and dared not say anything to Zhuang Xien.
After Wen Qing delivered the wine that Zhao Wei wanted, she bought gifts for the villagers in Nankun. This time she only bought some small things like stationery and candies.
The next day, Wen Qing took a train to Gejiu, then took a bus to Luchun. In Luchun, she bought a large backpack, put her stationery, candies and wine in the backpack, and walked along the country road to Xiangyang Village.
Wen Qing didn't call Lin Changsheng, but went to the village primary school first.
Last year, she left 5 yuan to repair classrooms and replace desks and chairs. Now that the school desks and chairs have been replaced with new ones, the school building is still very dilapidated, so this time she wants to leave all the 20 yuan to the primary school and rebuild the school building.
Seeing that there was no one in the school and it was already late, Wen Qing did not disturb the villagers. She found a classroom, entered the space, and stayed there at night.
The next morning, she came out of the space, breathed the fresh mountain air, took out the backpack and gifts, walked along the path down the mountain, and soon arrived at the village.
When he found Lin Changsheng, he asked in surprise, "Wen Qing, why are you here?"
Wen Qing smiled and said, "It's vacation time. I have some things to do in Yunnan, so I came to visit you."
When the villagers saw Wen Qing coming, they all ran over to greet him warmly.
Wen Qing also smiled and nodded, took out the candies and school supplies she had bought and distributed them to everyone.
Lin Changsheng asked: "Is there anything wrong with coming back?"
Wen Qing nodded, and Lin Changsheng took her to the brigade headquarters and told her about the changes in the past year.
Last time Wen Qing taught everyone how to make tea, everyone learned very carefully and the quality of tea in their village has also greatly improved. Now the tea from the tea garden can be sold to Gejiu and even to Nankun.
Seeing that the income from tea growing was good, some families who contracted sloping land switched to growing tea. They planted mature tea trees, and the leaves could be harvested in one year. Life in the village was better than before.
Zheng Xiaoqiang also provided a lot of help to the villagers. He brought back high-quality grain seeds and distributed them to everyone. Now the village's grain output is higher than before, and there is no problem with having enough food.
Wen Qing took out a shoulder bag and handed it to Lin Changsheng. Lin Changsheng opened the bag and saw a bag of banknotes. He looked at Wen Qing in surprise.
Wen Qing said, "Captain, this is 20 yuan. I want to rebuild our village school."
Lin Changsheng looked at her gratefully and said, "Thank you. I thank you on behalf of all the children in our village."
Xiangyang Village is located in a remote area. There is only one primary school here. As the school building has been in disrepair for many years, the desks, chairs and benches were replaced last time, and the classrooms were simply filled with earth walls. During the rainy season, it rained heavily outside and drizzled inside, so the teachers could not stay for long.
Wen Qing discussed with Lin Changsheng about building a classroom and a teacher's dormitory to improve the living environment of teachers and students. She also said, "Captain, we can't relax on the children's education. If we want to change Xiangyang Village, we still have to rely on the children."
Lin Changsheng took 20 yuan and planned to build a house. Building a house in the countryside only costs a few thousand yuan.
Wen Qing disagreed and demanded that the house be built solidly and must be made of blue bricks. To accommodate six grades, plus offices, a playground, a canteen and a dozen teachers' dormitories, a total of three rows of houses had to be built.
Lin Changsheng wanted to save money, but Wen Qing said, "Education is a long-term plan, we can't save money."
It is relatively easy to repair a house in the countryside. If you manage your time well, it can be completed before school starts in the spring.
It will cost at most 10 yuan to repair the house, and the remaining money can be used as tuition for students.
Lin Changsheng said: "Xiao Wen, I will report to the commune right away and start the work immediately. It will definitely not delay the children's studies."
Wen Qing took out another 5 yuan and gave it to Lin Changsheng, saying, "We can't ignore the children's food. This money is not much, so you can subsidize it as you see fit."
Lin Changsheng was very touched, "Xiao Wen, you are so kind."
After finishing the work, Wen Qing said goodbye and left. Lin Changsheng asked, "Why are you leaving so soon? Don't you want to rest for a night?"
"It's okay. I'll live in the county."
Wen Qing walked very quickly, arrived at Luchun County, and took the bus to Pudu.
The place she wanted to go was a cave in Luanyun Mountain in Pudu. After more than three hours of driving, it was already dark when she arrived in Pudu, so Wen Qing stayed in a hotel.
