Chapter 120 The Great Success of the Winery Reform
The winery's reforms have been a great success.
Miss Sun leaned closer to Su Yunlan and whispered, "Manager Su, I've noticed something... wrong with our wine cellar." Su Yunlan's heart sank, and he pressed, "What's wrong?" Miss Sun frowned. "These past few days, I've noticed some temperature fluctuations in the cellar, and some of the wine jars have developed tiny cracks on their surfaces. I'm worried..." She didn't finish her sentence, but the implication was clear—there was a problem with the wine's preservation.
Su Yunlan's expression changed; she had always insisted on not allowing any mishaps to occur at the winery.
She walked briskly towards the wine cellar, where a faint aroma of wine mixed with a hint of mustiness wafted towards her.
Upon closer inspection, it was indeed as Miss Sun had said: some of the wine jars had developed tiny cracks, and some had even begun to leak wine from their surfaces.
The temperature in the wine cellar was indeed higher than usual, and the air was filled with a humid and stuffy atmosphere.
Su Yunlan reached out and touched the wine jar. A cold, damp sensation came from her fingertips, and her heart sank.
Seeing this, Xiao Yuhan walked to Su Yunlan's side and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong?" Su Yunlan briefly explained the situation, and Xiao Yuhan's expression also became serious.
He knew that if there were problems with the preservation of the wine, it would be a fatal blow to the newly revived "Zuiyunfang".
"This problem must be solved as soon as possible." Su Yunlan's tone was firm and left no room for argument.
She immediately summoned the craftsmen of the distillery to discuss solutions.
After some discussion, they agreed that a more ventilated and temperature-controlled wine cellar needed to be rebuilt, and that some new equipment needed to be purchased to control the cellar's environment.
However, a new problem arose—funding.
Building a new wine cellar and purchasing equipment would require a large sum of money, and "Zuiyunfang" had just experienced malicious suppression by Wu wine merchants, so its funds were already insufficient.
The accountant in charge of finances looked troubled, fine beads of sweat forming on his forehead. He carefully handed the ledger to Su Yunlan, "Manager Su, look at our current silver..."
Su Yunlan took the ledger and quickly flipped through it, her brows furrowing more and more tightly.
The money in the account was far from enough to support the construction of the new wine cellar, and her heart sank.
How to do?
Are we just going to stand by and watch "Zuiyunfang" fall into trouble again?
No, absolutely not!
Su Yunlan gritted her teeth, her gaze resolute, "I will definitely find a way!"
She put down the ledger, strode out of the distillery, and the afterglow of the setting sun cast a long shadow on her.
As Xiao Yuhan watched her departing figure, his heart was filled with worry, yet also with unwavering trust.
He knew that no matter what difficulties he encountered, Su Yunlan would always find a solution.
Su Yunlan walked hurriedly, her mind racing as she considered all possible sources of funding.
Suddenly, she stopped in her tracks, her gaze falling on a money exchange on the street corner, and a bold idea began to take shape in her mind...
She turned to Xiao Yuhan behind her and said, "I've thought of a way..."
Su Yunlan went straight into the money exchange and discussed loan matters with the owner.
Instead of directly proposing a loan, she gave a detailed account of the current situation and future development plans of "Zuiyunfang," emphasizing the distillery's potential and profitability.
She proposed a completely new cooperation model—profit sharing.
The money shop owner was impressed by Su Yunlan's confidence and clear thinking, and also saw the huge potential of "Zuiyunfang". He finally agreed to Su Yunlan's proposal and generously invested a large amount of funds.
Having resolved the funding issue, Su Yunlan immediately set about purchasing new equipment and materials to begin building a new wine cellar.
She personally oversees every step to ensure that every detail is perfect.
The craftsmen were also inspired by Su Yunlan's enthusiasm and dedication, and worked day and night with great enthusiasm.
The new wine cellar is more spacious, brighter, better ventilated, and has a more constant temperature than the previous one.
The new equipment makes wine preservation more scientific and efficient, maximizing the retention of the wine's aroma and quality.
Looking at the newly renovated wine cellar, Su Yunlan was filled with joy and a sense of accomplishment.
She knew that this was only the first step in the revival of "Zuiyunfang" and that there was still a long way to go, but she was full of confidence.
The workers at the distillery cheered with joy; they saw hope and a future.
They gathered around Su Yunlan, laughing and cheering, celebrating their hard-won victory.
As the sun sets, its golden rays bathe the earth, making "Zuiyunfang" shine exceptionally brightly.
Xiao Yuhan stood at a distance, quietly watching Su Yunlan surrounded by the crowd. He walked firmly to Su Yunlan and embraced her tenderly.
Su Yunlan leaned against Xiao Yuhan's chest, feeling his warm embrace, and a sweet sense of happiness welled up in her heart.
A gentle evening breeze carries the aroma of wine, refreshing and delightful.
“Lan’er,” Xiao Yuhan whispered in her ear, “you are truly my miracle.” Su Yunlan smiled gently, looked up at him, her eyes sparkling, “Our miracle has only just begun…” She smiled mysteriously, took Xiao Yuhan’s hand, and pointed to the newly built wine cellar, “I have another idea…”
The wines from "Zuiyunfang" are like a phoenix rising from the ashes, making a stunning reappearance.
This time, it's not just about improved taste, but more importantly, about consistent quality.
The rich aroma of wine wafted through the streets and alleys of the town, tempting the taste buds of every wine lover.
Orders poured in like snowflakes, keeping the distillery workers extremely busy, yet their faces beamed with the joy of a bountiful harvest.
The crisp sound of copper coins clinking together heralded the triumphant revival of "Zuiyunfang".
The distillery's courtyard was piled high with packaged wine jars, waiting to be transported to various places.
The air was filled with a rich aroma of wine, mixed with a faint scent of oak barrels, which was intoxicating.
Standing at the entrance of the winery, Su Yunlan looked at the bustling scene and felt an indescribable sense of pride welling up in her heart.
She seemed to see the golden sunlight shining on the "Zuiyunfang" plaque, making it gleam.
"Sister-in-law! We did it!" Young Master Xiao ran excitedly to Su Yunlan, his handsome face radiating youthful energy.
He picked up the wine jar beside him and raised it high above his head. The wine of "Zuiyunfang" was once again famous throughout the world!
"
Miss Sun could not hide her excitement either. She walked to Su Yunlan's side, her eyes slightly red. "Manager Su, thank you for giving me this opportunity." She bowed deeply, her voice choked with emotion. "I can finally realize my dream."
Looking at the joyful faces before her, Su Yunlan felt a surge of warmth in her heart.
She knew that this was not just her success, but the result of the collective efforts of everyone at "Zuiyunfang".
However, in this joyous moment, a discordant voice broke the festive atmosphere.
"Manager Su, I heard that the opera troupe isn't doing too well..." A shop assistant cautiously approached Su Yunlan and whispered.
Su Yunlan's smile faltered slightly, and her brows furrowed.
A theatrical troupe?
She had almost forgotten about the Xiao family business.
She turned to look at Xiao Yuhan, only to find that he was also looking at her, with a hint of worry in his eyes.
“It seems we have new challenges ahead,” Su Yunlan said softly, taking Xiao Yuhan’s hand and a confident smile playing on her lips. “Let’s go, let’s go see the opera troupe.”
