Volume 1 Section 48 The Winery

The winery? Sha Zhengyang was stunned and realized that this should refer to the Hongqi winery.

Although this winery is called Hongqi Winery, it is actually a winery in Nandu Town.

This winery was built during the Daoguang period of the Qing Dynasty. Later, it flourished during the Guangxu period. It was named Dongsheng Shaojiufang during the Republic of China. After the liberation, the winery also survived for several years. It stopped production in 1958 and later resumed production after 1964, but the scale was much smaller and it could only barely survive.

It was also prosperous for several years in the mid-1980s, but it quickly declined under market competition after 1987. At the end of 1988, Hongqi Winery began to lose money and operate in difficulty. It was delayed until last year and could no longer maintain it and closed down.

Because this township runs a winery owes Hongqi Village and the next door Dongfang Village part of the land acquisition cost and the cost of renting land for many years, the town simply distributes the winery to Hongqi Village and Dongfang Village collective, of which Hongqi Village accounts for 50% and Dongfang Village accounts for 30%.

Because the debt owed to nearly 600,000 yuan was owed to the outside world, the town wanted to return it to the factory, but Hongqi Winery was unable to support it. In the end, the two sides had a dispute. In the end, Nandu Township Industrial Company assumed the debt, but occupied 20% of the shares and became a joint enterprise between the town and the two villages.

Although it has become a joint enterprise in the town and two villages, Hongqi Winery has actually completely closed down. In addition to some fixed assets such as factories, warehouses and wine cellars, it also owes nearly 700,000 yuan in private and collectives that provide grain to the winery.

After all, this winery actually has a bit of insolvency.

At the beginning, Hongqi Village and Dongfang Village were unwilling to accept this winery, hoping that the town could take back the winery and pay the rented land money, but they were rejected by the town, because Hongqi Winery was an independent legal person and only belonged to the town industrial company and had no direct relationship with the town finance.

The arm can't resist his thighs, and the town even re-registered the winery and changed it to a joint enterprise between the town and the two villages. The management is mainly Hongqi Village and Dongfang Village, and the town basically does not interfere.

This winery has become a major concern for Hongqi Village and Dongfang Village. Not only did the land acquisition and land rent not only did not get it back, but it also carried such a burden and was owed hundreds of thousands of dollars outside.

Although the town industrial company will be responsible for it, the senior official will crush people to death. Who knows if the town will be liable for one day?

Anyone will feel unhappy when it comes to such a thing.

No wonder Gao Changsong was very angry with the Party Committee and Government of Nandu Town. Even when Guo Yeshan came to the village, he would be squeezed by Gao Changsong. This was what Sha Zhengyang heard Liu Jiaguo say in private while eating in the canteen at noon.

"Xie Wenshu, where is the winery? I'll just go directly to find Secretary Gao."

Sha Zhengyang had some impression that this winery would also have risen and fall in his previous life, and was contracted by multiple contractors. It had a prosperous atmosphere in 1998 and 1999, but it fell rapidly. Until 2008, the winery was finally auctioned by the court for insolvency and failed to sell several times. Later, someone finally took over and took the lead. He also fell in love with the winery's land and developed it into a residential community. Hongqi winery eventually disappeared.

"It's half a mile away on the road ahead. Go out here and walk along the road. There's a pretty big factory gate." Xie Zihe originally wanted to accompany Sha Zhengyang, but he felt that he seemed too enthusiastic and lost a lot of money.

Isn’t he just a new young cadre? I heard that he was the secretary of the former County Mayor R, but it was rumored that County Mayor C, who was transferred, made a mistake and was transferred again after just half a year. So in the end, Xie Zihe hesitated for a moment and just walked out of the hospital and showed Sha Zhengyang the way.

After pedaling three hundred meters of the bicycle, you can see a factory building that looks a little abrupt in this farmland from a distance.

Although the highest is only a second floor, it is also a second floor after all, and the gate that is enough to accommodate two large trucks in parallel still retains the former glory of the company. A Hongqi statue, which is a bit like the Hongqi sedan logo, is placed at the factory gate, and seems to be telling the glory of the past.

The iron gate was half-closed, and Sha Zhengyang pushed the bicycle into the door. A gatekeeper came out of the gatekeeper and looked at Sha Zhengyang with his eyes slanted: "What are you doing?"

"I'll look for Secretary Gao." Sha Zhengyang replied with a smile: "I'm from the town."

"Come from the commune?" The old man tickled Ye Ziyan with disdain, "It's already lunch time, why are you here?"

Sha Zhengyang's expression remained unchanged, "Uncle, it's almost three o'clock now, I have something to do with Secretary Gao."

Seeing that Sha Zhengyang was still smiling, the old man lowered his eyes and snorted, "Walk inside, go to the left."

The bicycle was riding in the cement floor. The winery covers a large area. It was a row of two-story houses by the highway. Sha Zhengyang glanced at the office, supply and marketing department, and craft department lined up. Only signs were seen on the second floor, probably the factory director's office and finance department were located upstairs.

However, the moss that turned black after drying in front of the door, the cigarette boxes, match boxes and fruit cores discarded everywhere showed that it had been at least three months since it was no longer popular.

On the right, there should be the factory area and the reservoir area, and further down the road, there should be the cellar area.

"Dad, I decided, you should find someone else to work in this militia company chief security chief. I don't want to stay in the village anymore. People are almost suffocated. I have good hands and feet, so where can't I make money? I heard that when I go to work in Shenzhen, I will be at least two or three hundred a month, and I stay in this village. I have to pay 15 yuan a month, and I don't even have enough money to smoke. I have to ask you for money. I really can't do it."

A somewhat heavy voice came through the corner, and then another voice was octave higher: "You dare! As long as your old man has not closed his eyes, you have to listen to your old man! You are still a Communist Party member, a village branch committee member, and I am the branch secretary. You have to listen to me both public and private! Why do you go to Guangdong? Even if you earn two or three hundred yuan a month, you will have a big hole in the snake, and the expenses will be huge there! Also, who will take care of your family? Don't say you want to go with Tian Jing, then is this family still called home?"

"Dad, why are you so rigid? Tian Jing and I have been married for two years, and we can't even afford a Jialing 70. Qu Erdong went to Guangdong the year before yesterday, and bought one after returning from the Spring Festival this year. I decided on my own business, so you don't have to worry about me."

The heavy voice suddenly became louder, "What if you are the branch secretary? Can you force me to be a village cadre? There are many soldiers in the village who come back from the army. Just find two of them, why do you have to put them on my head?"

"You did a good job in the winery?"

"Yes, I did a good job in the winery, but what's the situation in the winery now? It's like this, I'm going to die. I've been working for a few months and I can't get my salary. Well, I guess I'm going to die soon and throw it to our village and Dongfang Village to carry it. This town is so shameless!"

It seemed that he was blocked by his son's words. After a while, the old voice said, "Okay, if you want to leave, you have to find someone to replace you, and I want me to be satisfied. Those who are not stubborn and have no mind on work will not work!"

"Dad, it would be boring if you say this. According to your standards, there are not many suitable people in our village. If it is really suitable, why should people stay in the village and earn you the 200 yuan a year? When they go out to work, they can earn it in a month. That is to say, I, which delays me for several years, and it will be almost the same."
