  Chapter 428 Visiting the winery at night

  Wang Jinwudao: "I have never eaten pork but I have seen pigs running. There are so many friends who are doctors around me. I can learn it too."

   "Why do I hear you as a curse."

  Wang Jinwu laughed loudly: "I can't speak, don't think too much, I didn't scold you."

   At this time, a farm worker knocked on the door and came in: "Mr. Wang, I have already contacted you, and the pig will be slaughtered tomorrow morning."

   As Chinese New Year was approaching, Wang Jinwu arranged to kill the wild boar they had raised for two years.

Killing pigs for the New Year is also a folk tradition. Wang Jinwu said that the pigs raised in captivity are now slaughtered in 6-12 months, and they eat pig feed. The pigs in their farms grow up on leftovers and drink mountain spring water. , the growth cycle is long, and both pigs are more than two years old.

  Years ago, the slaughter of pigs was because Tong Guangsheng's family was coming back for the festival this year. Wang Jinwu asked Xu Chunliang to come over to eat pig dishes tomorrow, and it would be best to invite Mei Ruxue too.

  Xu Chunliang saw that the time was almost up, so he called Fan Lida. Fan Lida drank a lot at noon, if he didn't call him, he would probably sleep until dawn.

   After washing up, Fan Lida came to the restaurant on the water, and the dinner began. After the meal, there was a barbecue. The original intention was to come to inspect, but after arriving, he just drank.

   At eleven o'clock in the evening, Xu Chunliang helped the drunk Fan Lida back to his room. Fan Lida was so excited that he patted Xu Chunliang on the shoulder and said: "Brother, you are too enthusiastic and grand."

  Xu Chunliang smiled and said: "Don't be polite to me. After you come to Weishan Island, we will have revolutionary wine every day."

  Fan Lida nodded again and again: "For your words, I will definitely come, I must come, by the way, you didn't tell anyone else about me, did you?"

  Xu Chunliang said: "Not a single word was mentioned."

  Fan Lida gave him a thumbs up, and said in a low voice: "From now on, your business will be my business. As long as your brother and I can do it, all the way will be green."

  Xu Chunconscience said that I will wait for your words. Wine is indeed a good thing. For a person like Fan Lida who loves wine, he must drink it properly.

  Xu Chunliang said in a low voice: "Don't go back in a hurry, kill the pig tomorrow, and leave after eating the pig's food."

Fan Lida said: "No, I have to go back early tomorrow morning, and I have to report to the leader about my work and the office location. I have to report as soon as possible." Even though he drank a lot, he didn't forget any important things .

  Xu Chunliang said: "Then you rest first, I will arrange a yacht to take you back tomorrow morning."

   "Don't bother, don't specialize."

  Xu Chunliang smiled and said: "It's not troublesome at all, this farm is the same as our own."

  Xu Chunliang came outside, Wang Jinwu and Zhang Haitao sent the drunk Xiao Wang back to the room.

  Wang Jinwu has already prepared a room for Xu Chunliang, Xu Chunliang said that he will go back to the hospital tonight, Zhang Haitao did not drink at night, and there is no problem with driving.

  Xu Chunliang called Wang Jinwu aside and arranged for him to bring some pork back to Fan Lida after killing the pig tomorrow morning.

  Wang Jinwu told him to just rest assured that not only wild pork, but also lake fresh aquatic products are indispensable, and he would send them back by yacht directly, and Guquan Town would arrange vehicles to ensure that they would be delivered to their doorsteps.

Although Xu Chunliang didn't mention Fan Lida's identity, Wang Jinwu also saw that this person was very important from Xu Chunliang's attitude towards him and the standard of reception. In fact, no matter what his status was, as long as he was Xu Chunliang's friend, Wang Jinwu would treat him as a guest of honor .

Zhang Haitao accompanied Xu Chunliang from noon to night today, and guessed Fan Lida's identity more or less. During this time, he learned a lot from Xu Chunliang. Breathless quietly covered the island.

When passing by the Weishan Island winery, Xu Chunliang subconsciously glanced at the door and saw several clear ruts on the snow. Xu Chunliang asked Zhang Haitao to stop by the side of the road. Those ruts were clearly left just now , in his impression the winery has been closed for a long time.

  Zhang Haitao was a little surprised and said, "Xu Yuan, what's the matter?"

  Xu Chunliang said: "It's okay, I want to take two steps, you go back first."

  Zhang Haitao thought to himself, this place is not far from the town government, Mei Ruxue is back, could it be that he wants to dismiss me and meet his girlfriend privately? Anyway, it's not something I can ask myself, so I nodded honestly and said: "Okay, then you should be careful."

Xu Chunliang got out of the car, and waited for Zhang Haitao to drive away before he walked back slowly. When he came to the gate of the winery, he saw that the door was locked from the inside. Because of this, the scene in the yard is clear at a glance, and a van is parked inside.

  Xu Chunliang observed the rut marks and was sure that the car entered not long ago.

Xu Chunliang intuitively felt that something was unusual, so he walked around to the other side, quietly climbed over the wall, tiptoed close to the van, took a look inside the van, and found no one inside. He reached for the exhaust pipe and immediately felt the exhaust. The residual temperature of the cylinder proves that the car has not been turned off soon.

  From the van, there was a row of messy footprints extending deep into the winery. Xu Chunliang followed the footprints to the vicinity of the ancient cellar pool, and saw light and shadow flickering faintly on the broken windows of the workshop.

  Xu Chunliang stooped to the window, and before he had time to look inside, he heard voices, and he hurriedly hid in the grass.

  Two people came out from inside, one of them lit a cigarette after coming out, and the flame illuminated his face. It was clearly Yan Zhongmin, the deputy director of the winery.

  In fact, Xu Chunliang guessed that he should be there just now, after all, the key to the winery gate is in his hands now.

  Yan Zhongmin took a puff of a cigarette, and the man beside him was wearing a blue police coat and a Lei Feng hat, his face was pockmarked, and he complained in broken Mandarin: "It's so cold in the south!"

  Yan Zhongmin said: "Our place is not in the south, Dongzhou is located in Jiangbei."

  The pockmarked face laughed: "My hometown is Inner Mongolia. Anyway, to me, you are the south."

  Yan Zhongmin shook his head, unable to refute, took a puff of smoke and said, "What is there to investigate in this dilapidated winery? You can't come during the day? Do you have to choose the night?"

  Pockmarked: "It's too eye-catching during the day."

  Yan Zhongmin looked at him in confusion.

  The pockmarked face realized that he had said something wrong, and quickly explained: "Actually, we are not the only ones eyeing the winery. We mainly don't want to attract the attention of our competitors."

  Yan Zhongmin said: "You worry too much, except for you Qianfan Group, no one is interested in this junk."

Xu Chunliang was taken aback. The pockmarked face actually belonged to Qianfan Group. This Chen Qianfan was not simple. As soon as he left, he sent someone over to investigate. However, he neither contacted himself nor the local government, but contacted Yan Zhongmin privately. .

  If you really want to buy a winery, you probably won’t do it. You can take the formal way, contact the staff of the winery in private to investigate, and choose it in the middle of the night. There must be articles in it.

  Yan Zhongmin obviously also became suspicious: "If you really want to buy it, you can negotiate with the town to buy it? After the purchase, you can inspect it however you want."

  Pockmarked: "To tell you the truth, we are mainly interested in these three cellars. Before proposing the acquisition, we must conduct a comprehensive evaluation of the cellars. Only when we understand the value can we bid for the relevant departments."

  Yan Zhongmin said: "Hurry up, hurry up and sample."

  Pockmarked: "Don't worry, I can't lose you."

  Yan Zhongmin shook his head and said to wait in the car, the van is also his.

   Looking at Yan Zhongmin's back with a pockmarked face, there was a sneer on his face.

  Not long after Yan Zhongmin left, another short man came out and said to the pockmarked face, "Lao Liu, what did you tell him?"

  Pockmarked: "Second brother, he seems to have doubts."

   "Damn it, two bricks can't stop him from talking." The two bricks he said meant 20,000 yuan.

  Pockmarked in a low voice: "What's wrong?"

  The little man known as the second brother looked around and said in a low voice, "There are fish."

  Pockmarked in surprise: "Big fish?"

  The second brother nodded and said, "Big fish!"

  Xu Chunliang could hear clearly in the grass. He could conclude that these people did not just come to the wine cellar. From their conversation, we can know that what they did was shameful.

  Actually, the last time Chen Qianfan came over, Xu Chunliang had doubts about his motives. At that time, he thought that Chen Qianfan's purpose was to acquire the winery, but judging from the current situation, it seemed that it was not that simple.

  Old Chen, old Chen, how many tricks have you played behind my back? Xu Chunliang is a little bit annoyed, I treat you as a friend, but you treat me as a winner.

  Pockmarked face continued: "Retract the net?"

  The little man shook his head and said, "The fish is too big, our boat is too small."

  The pockmarked face looked around the winery and said, "Buy it?"

  The little man nodded.

   Not long after, the little man announced that work was over, and people came out of the workshop one after another. Xu Chunliang counted, there were four in total, plus the three who appeared just now, a total of seven people.

  Yan Zhongmin started the van, and the group got into the car and drove away from the winery.

  Xu Chunliang waited for them to lock the door and leave. Then he came out of the hiding place, entered the workshop, took out his mobile phone and turned on the flashlight. The workshop in front of him was the manual workshop of the winery in the past.

The three ancient cellars mentioned by Chen Qianfan are all located in the handicraft workshop, and two of the three cellars have collapsed. Xu Chunliang found that the relatively intact cellar did not have many traces of man-made disturbance, but the No. 3 cellar that had collapsed and suffered serious damage The pool was obviously touched by someone.

  There are many kiln bricks scattered around the cellar, and there are many footprints beside it. At a glance, it is clear that it is the focus of the group of people just now.

  Generally speaking, the older the cellar, the more beneficial microorganisms and aroma substances in the pit mud, and the stronger the aroma of the wine. The value of these ancient cellars is related to the microbial populations contained in them.

Xu Chunliang lay down on cellar No. 3 and sniffed it carefully, but he didn't smell the aroma of wine inside. The aroma of wine in the workshop actually came from cellar No. 1. When Chen Qianfan came last time, he said that cellar No. 1 The pool can be used normally.
