Traveling through 70's wine

Chapter 142 Exhibition

The man tasted the Changxie Special Brew and Hawthorn Wine and said to Wen Qing, "Are you the person in charge? Can you talk about the price in detail?"

Wen Qing took him to the negotiation area of ​​the venue. They sat down and Wen Qing asked, "May I ask your name?"

The man said, "My surname is Wang. I am from the Luzhong City Sugar and Wine Company in Ludong Province."

The two discussed sales and finally agreed to buy 2000 bottles of Changxia Qingniang and Teweiniang. Wen Qing asked, "Would you like some Hawthorn Wine?"

"We have local wine in eastern Shandong, and other fruit wines are difficult to sell."

Wen Qing stopped recommending, and the prices of the two kinds of wine were finally negotiated to 8 yuan and 10 yuan per bottle. After signing the contract, Wen Qing asked the other party to pay a certain percentage of the deposit and provide a six-month bank acceptance bill.

Manager Wang had no objection to this. Many companies now owe money to others, and it is difficult to recover the money over time, so they now all require cash payment and spot goods.

Wen Qing said, "You can issue the bank acceptance bill and we will ship the goods. Do you want to send someone to pick it up? Or do we deliver it to your door?"

"Please deliver the goods."

The opening was auspicious. Wen Qing went to a restaurant outside to order lunch at noon. More people came in the afternoon, and there was a constant stream of people queuing outside the booth for wine tasting.

Several girls were already exhausted from standing, so Wen Qing arranged them into groups of three to take turns to rest, so that they could hold out until closing time.

On the second and third days, Wen Qing signed four more contracts, all of which were small orders of 300 or 500 bottles. All of them were distributors in Ji Zhong, and Wen Qing would deliver the goods to their homes when the time came.

On the last day, a big customer came, a sugar and wine company from Shanxi Province. This customer came to taste the wine for four consecutive days. Seeing the constant flow of people at Wenqing booth, he finally made up his mind to buy their wine.

He bought a total of 2100 bottles of light brew, 3000 bottles of special brew, and 2400 bottles of hawthorn wine. There are many brands of light-fragrance liquor in Shanxi Province, but the strong-fragrance liquor is not very famous. Wen Qing promised to deliver the goods to his door.

With so many companies requesting door-to-door delivery and railway carriages hard to come by, Wen Qing thought it would be time to buy a new truck for the winery.

As it was the last day, there were only 100 bottles of clear wine, 100 bottles of special wine and 150 bottles of hawthorn wine left. Wen Qing asked Liu Quan to sell all the wine, all at a % discount.

Wen Qing does not suffer losses by selling wine at a price 20% lower than the market price, nor does it harm the interests of distributors.

Knowing that they were going to clear out the sales, many people who had drunk wine a few days ago came to buy. Wen Qing saw that there were quite a lot of people queuing up, so he informed everyone in advance that they could only buy a maximum of three bottles of each type of wine to accommodate the people queuing behind.

The museum closed in the afternoon. Wen Qing distributed wages to the 10 girls. After taking photos, everyone dispersed.

Wen Qing, Liu Quan and the two employees who came with them were responsible for dismantling the booth. Except for the promotional materials, nothing else could be taken away, so they all had to be thrown away.

Liu Quan took his people directly back to Pingjing to prepare for production and arrange for people to deliver goods to the dealers who had signed contracts at the trade show.

Wen Qing said, "I want to buy some saplings to take back," and went her separate ways from them.

Nanxiang’s famous trees include ginkgo, yew, camphor, and maple. She went to a nursery and bought 200 of them, had them delivered to the place she specified, and then put them all into the space.

In the evening, she first planted 50 plants of each variety in the space, and planned to plant the remaining 600 plants on the newly contracted mountain after returning.

After finishing her business, Wen Qing bought a train ticket back to Beijing.

After returning from vacation, I reported to Director Ye about the equipment exhibited at the Sugar and Wine Fair.

Wen Qing said: "The packaging equipment produced in our country is still relatively simple, with low automation level and insufficient precision, and the market demand is huge."

Director Ye pondered for a while and said, "We have two packaging material factories and one packaging equipment factory in Sifeng District. They can only produce simple filling equipment. We need to find a way to upgrade our products."

Wen Qing didn't say much and just followed the arrangements.

Wen Qing returned to Erxia Village and first transported the saplings to the back mountain. He then told the three forest rangers to plant them as soon as possible.

All these saplings are planted in the greening tree area, and they can be further grown through cuttings in the future. After the city is renovated in a few years, she will be able to sell the saplings.

Wen Qing remembers that a ten-year-old ginkgo tree could be sold for 2 to 3 yuan, and a yew tree was even more expensive.

If you plant it now, you don’t need to spend much effort to manage it, and you can make money in ten years. Just thinking about it makes me happy.

Wen Qing went to the winery to check on its operations during this period and found no problems. She also discovered that after a period of use, the wine brewed in the wine cellar at the new winery was getting better and better.

So he said to Wang Jianguo: "Jianguo, how is the cultivation of wine cellars from No. 31 to No. 60 in our new wine shop? Can we use it now?"

Wang Jianguo said: "It has been aged for six months. It can barely be used, but the wine produced will probably not be very good."

Wen Qing said: "According to the village's intention, we need to expand the winery, speed up the cultivation of wine cellars, and strive to put the 100 wine cellars here into use as soon as possible. Do you have any good ideas?"

Wang Jianguo said, “Let me think about it.”

Wen Qing went to the wine cellar and exchanged the wine in the space with the wine in the warehouse. She found Jin Zicong to look at the inventory of wine, and told Liu Quan and Wang Jianguo to blend three tons of light-fragrance liquor and four tons of strong-fragrance liquor first, and send the orders from the Sugar and Wine Fair.

Wen Qing works on weekdays and brews wine on weekends, so she has less time to go to Xunda Store. If Zhuang Xien wants to see her, he has to go to Erxia Village by himself.

That day, Zhuang Xian came to Erxia Village and found Wen Qing in the winery with familiarity. Wen Qing put down her work and followed him back to the courtyard.

Zhuang Xian talked about the production of Ji Zhong Bicycle Factory. The new production line has been put in place and a group of workers have been recruited. The new workers' skills are not yet very proficient, so the output has not yet reached the target.

The two talked about the cycling race again. The rules of the race have been announced, and Fang Yuan asked someone to report the event to the district sports committee.

The district sports committee was also very interested. This was the first time they had held a cycling competition and they said they would send someone to provide guidance and involve official participation. Zhuang Xien and the others certainly had no objection.

The official registration starts in June and ends at the end of July, leaving enough time for preparation, such as grouping and arranging supplies along the way.

The race route is from Xiangshan to Tanci Temple, about 40 kilometers. There are plains, mountains, and woods along the way. The road conditions are changeable. The riding time is about 3 hours. I believe most people will have no problem completing the entire journey.

Wen Qing thought this arrangement was okay. She said to Zhuang Xien, "You need to report your physical condition when you sign up. People with underlying diseases cannot participate. Of course, the Sports Committee can also organize doctors to provide logistical support."

Then he said, "We at Changxia Winery would like to sponsor the competition and cover some of the expenses. Do you think that's okay?"

"Of course, but the total cost has not been calculated yet, so don't worry."

In fact, he felt that in addition to Changxia Winery, he could also look for other companies to seek sponsorship.

Zhuang Xien said: "I would like to invite everyone to my home in Bali Village for dinner on the weekend."

"Okay, I'll come over early to help you."

After Zhuang Xien left, Wen Qing picked up the design draft of the city bicycle. The frame design of the current city bicycle was unreasonable, and the brakes were traditional cable brakes. When driving fast, it was easy to have the problem of long braking distance. The car also had no shock absorption function, making it uncomfortable to ride for long distances.

The city bikes she designed are different from mountain bikes. They emphasize safety, lightness, and labor saving. The whole vehicle has few parts and is easy to operate. Even if there is a problem, it is easy to repair. It focuses on being inexpensive, trendy, and of good quality.
