Chapter 293 Succession
This time was no exception. She went to the mountain to catch a chicken and prepared to bring it out of the space for Sister Liu to stew it tomorrow.
Wen Qing went to the small bamboo building to see Xiao Fengfeng again. She was still sleeping soundly. Wen Qing had been meditating for two hours. Now she was mainly strengthening her mental training. Her skills were already very high, but could she fight against modern weapons? She thought she couldn't, and according to her personality, she couldn't do anything that would harm society, so she didn't spend a lot of effort on training. After completing the training, she took Xiao Feng out of the space and went to sleep.
In more than a month, the grapes in the space will be ripe, and then they can be used to make wine. Wen Qing plans to customize another batch of oak barrels, as the oak barrels she bought before have been used up.
She wrote a letter to a French oak barrel manufacturing company, asking about ordering oak barrels. A month later, the French company replied to her, suggesting that she contact their office in the country and leaving her contact information.
Wen Qing called the other party and learned that their office was located in the office building of Tonghui Blue Sky Shopping Center, so she went directly to the door. Their office had only 8 people and was jointly opened by several French brewing equipment companies.
Wen Qing learned that they happened to have wine-making equipment for sale, so she signed a contract with them. She asked the Changxia Trading Company in Gangcheng to pay the money. She attended the Canton Fair almost every year. They signed contracts at the Canton Fair and brought tea and apple sparkling wine over, and sometimes also some white wine. The money earned by the trading company remained in Gangcheng, so she didn't have to worry about not having money when buying foreign things.
Soon, the grapes in the space ripened. Wen Qing drove the harvester and picked the grapes one by one according to their varieties. He crushed and destemmed them separately and put them into different stainless steel tanks for fermentation to make wine.
After studying in the United States, she made her own fruit wine yeast. In fact, the white frost on the grape skin contains yeast and can be fermented directly. But when she was in Napa, the winery still had its own fruit wine yeast, so she also made fruit wine yeast specifically for wine based on her own understanding. Comparing the two, she feels that it is easier to maintain the quality of the wine by fermenting with fruit wine yeast.
During this period, Wen Qing concentrated on making wine. During the day, she went to Erxia Village, and after finishing the winery work in the winery office, she returned to the courtyard, closed the door, entered the space, and started working. In the evening, she returned to Huashuijing Lane, had dinner, waited for Sister Liu to rest, and took Xiaofeng to the space to work.
She was busy for a month before she put the wine that had completed the second fermentation into oak barrels for aging, harvested the crops on 1000 acres of land, plowed the land again, raised rice seedlings, and sowed corn, sorghum, and wheat seeds on the ground. Only then did she complete her work for this season.
Two months later, she received French oak barrels and winemaking equipment and put them directly into the space. She expanded the winemaking workshop in the space, bought bricks, tiles and cement, built a house in the space, and laid floor tiles on the ground. She built the workshop according to the standards of Changxia Winery. Fortunately, she had participated in house construction many times and had a better understanding of house construction. In addition, the wine workshop in the space was very simple, so she barely completed it by herself.
The containers used in the wine workshop are also stainless steel cans. The air temperature in the space is very suitable for winemaking. Winemaking equipment such as screening machines, juicers, fermentation barrels, etc. are assembled, and freezing equipment is added to produce apple sparkling wine. In the future, champagne can also be produced, and the bottles will be turned in ice water and the dregs will be spit out.
She is busy in the space every day. After waiting for another week, the rice seedlings grow to more than one foot tall and then begin to be transplanted into the fields. These tasks can be done with farm machinery, so the work is relatively easy.
In July, Yang Jiesheng called her at night. Wen Qing could tell something was wrong with him and asked hurriedly, "Jiesheng, what happened?"
Yang Jiesheng said, "Awen, there is indeed something. I will send Shanshan to you at the end of the month. After school starts, he will go to elementary school."
Wen Qing used Shui Ya's connections to enroll Shan Shan in Yumin Primary School, the best primary school closest to her home.
Shanshan is now attending an ordinary kindergarten and has learned some knowledge of pinyin and arithmetic. Yang Jiesheng also teaches him English. He has been drinking food from the space since he was a child. When Wen Qing had time, she would use her internal force to help him sort out his meridians. He has a good body and is smart, so he has a foundation for learning. When he comes back, Wen Qing only needs to help him review again so that he can cope with the entrance test for elementary school.
The trouble that Yang Jiesheng encountered was that Old Master Yang had officially retired, and his second cousin Yang Yiren was appointed chairman of the company's board of directors. He divided the country into two regions, north and south, and asked him to choose which region he would be the manager of. At the same time, he set up obstacles for him in terms of supply and independent management. In short, he reduced the authority of the mainland branch and increased its dependence on the head office.
At this point, Yang Jiesheng was very angry and said, "Ah Wen, I came to the mainland alone and worked so hard to fight for the market. If it weren't for you, I might have died. Now that the situation has opened up, you want to kick me away."
Wen Qing asked: "Besides you, who else do they want to send to the mainland to take charge of the work?"
Yang Jiesheng: "I don't know the details, but I heard he is my other cousin."
Old Master Yang is his eldest uncle. He has three wives, five sons and two daughters. His current successor is his second cousin Yang Yiren. Rumor has it that the person who will be sent to the mainland is his fifth cousin Yang Yishen, Yang Yiren's younger brother from the same father and mother.
My eldest uncle's first wife has a son and a daughter. My eldest brother passed away many years ago, leaving behind two sons. Now my eldest cousin's wife is studying in the United States with them. She only asks for money from home and doesn't care much about the company's affairs. The eldest daughter died of illness before she reached adulthood.
The second wife has a daughter and two sons. The daughter is married, and the sons are Yang Yiren and Yang Yishen, both of whom work at Yang’s Jewelry in Gangcheng.
The third wife has two sons, namely the third cousin Yang Yiyong and the fourth cousin Yang Yixin, who also work at Yang’s Jewelry.
Wen Qing asked, "What do you think? Do you want to stay in Yang's Jewelry? Or do you want to go it alone?"
Yang Jiesheng said: "My uncle helped us when my family was in the most difficult time. If not, my mother would have had a harder time raising the three of us.
I have many cousins who all work at Yang Jewelry. I'm sure everyone wants to be independent. It's only natural for my second cousin to assign them to important departments. After all, they are a family. Yang is a family company, so of course they should focus on their own people. I don't want to make things difficult for my uncle."
Wen Qing: "Do you mean to go out on your own?"
Yang Jiesheng: "Yes, in fact, I had a hunch long ago that it was not difficult for my uncle to stay in the position. My cousin would take over and he would first use his brothers and sons, and then it would be my turn. So I opened the processing factory to leave a way out for myself."
