Chapter 360: Reap What You Sow
After hearing the news, Hu Yingshan could no longer maintain his dignity.
His face first showed shock, then extreme anger, and finally turned into helplessness and dejection. He looked ten years older in an instant.
Lin Yunxi had already anticipated the situation of the original wine factory.
Just when Hu Yingshan went to purchase a large quantity of grapes, the growers sent her the news.
Lin Yunxi just said: "Sell it to them. You'd be a fool not to make money."
These growers are not as arrogant as the villagers in Nanshui Village. They know very well that those high-quality grape varieties and advanced technologies were brought by Director Lin.
More than 90 percent of the grapes they grow are purchased by the former winery, cannery and food processing factory under the jurisdiction of Director Lin.
Otherwise, no matter how suitable their place is for growing grapes, if there is no market for them, the grapes will eventually rot in the fields.
They could eat meat several times a week, the children and women wore new clothes, the men stood straight, etc., all of which were brought by Director Lin.
If anyone had the ability to open a factory, Nanshui Village would not have become one of the poorest villages in the surrounding area.
The establishment of a winery, production lines and equipment, advanced technology, professional technicians, and initial capital investment, etc.
Relying solely on the ignorant people in Nanshui Village, they can't provide anything. Their only advantage may be unity.
Even farmers who have been farming all their lives understand this problem, but the villagers and village cadres of Nanshui Village cannot understand it.
Seeing that even their proud party secretary Hu Yingshan was helpless, the villagers started to quarrel.
In the face of interests, family ties and friendships were instantly thrown aside, and they all clamored for the factory to return the money they had paid in advance.
Although the wine factory's profits in the second half of last year were not as good as those in the first half of this year, every household received several hundred yuan at the end of the year.
Moreover, they still get several dozen yuan in salary every month from working on weekdays, so everyone couldn't help but regret it.
What made them regret was not what they did following the village party secretary, but that they had offended Director Lin, their cash cow, and now they would have no money to earn in the future.
Money is their lifeblood. Having experienced the days of having enough food every day, they can no longer live the old days of having no food to eat.
The villagers quarreled more and more fiercely and started to fight each other, blaming Hu Yingshan for driving away the people from the pharmaceutical factory, which caused the money they had earned to fly away.
As they talked, they were about to go to the homes of the current management of the factory. Even if they couldn't get the money, they would get as much as they could.
Looking at the furious villagers, Hu Yingshan and a group of managers could only persuade them kindly and asked everyone to give them some time.
They didn't dare to go to the pharmaceutical factory, so they came to the county government and begged the leaders to help plead for Director Lin.
But Hu Yingshan and others sat in the hall waiting for a long time, but no one was willing to pay attention to them.
The establishment of the winery project was a stroke of luck for their county.
During that period, the county magistrate went to attend meetings and was envied by comrades from other counties for several months in a row.
So much so that every time there was a meeting, the county magistrate emphasized the need to cooperate with Director Lin's work.
Hu Yingshan promised verbally, but in reality, he pretended to obey and secretly disobeyed the orders, leading the villagers to gather together to cause riots and seize power, which was simply lawless.
Ever since the incident at the wine factory, the county magistrate was so anxious that his mouth was full of sores, and he even went to ask Director Lin for help in person.
Only then did they agree to continue to set up the new factory in their county, and they have been busy with the preparations for the new factory during this period.
There was no time to deal with the affairs of Nanshui Village. I didn't expect these people to come to me on their own initiative.
Seeing that they were determined not to leave until they saw the county magistrate, the county magistrate's secretary, who had received benefits from Hu Yingshan in the past, kindly gave them a few reminders.
The general meaning is that the new winery has already opened, and there is no way to reverse what Hu Yingshan and his team asked for.
He also tactfully reminded them that the results of the handling of the village cadres of Nanshui Village would be announced soon, and hoped that they would not step into the minefield.
Since this matter concerns the important development of the county, the result of handling it is not a painless one, but the dismissal and criticism of all staff members.
At this point, the only remaining hope in Hu Yingshan's heart was shattered, and their actions also extinguished the future development of Nanshui Village.
The newly appointed director of the wine factory was a tough guy. He added a clear condition to the recruitment notice with the official seal: no one from Nanshui Village would be recruited.
This is not regional discrimination. When villagers from Nanshui Village came to make trouble, they just said one sentence.
“We spent a lot of manpower, material and financial resources to build the new winery. We are responsible not only to the head office, but also to the thousands of employees in the winery.”
"It really can't bear another destruction from Nanshui Village. If the new winery has problems again, how will you let the employees live?"
With just this one sentence, the employees of the new winery could drown the people of Nanshui Village with just a spit.
