Features: This novel is divided into three parts, and the current release is the second volume of the series. It primarily depicts the connection between Zhang Zuolun and his son with Laolongkou, as well as the contributions made by General Zhang Xueliang to the development of Laolongkou. Through history, it reflects the century-old vicissitudes of Laolongkou's growth. According to the author, Zou Changshun, the president of Laolongkou Group, presenting the corporate culture in the form of a novel is unprecedented in the country. Through this work, the deeper exploration of liquor culture is achieved, expanding and strengthening "Laolongkou," thereby promoting better development of the enterprise. Zhang Zuolun, who once served as the Military Commissioner of Northeast Three Provinces and Chief of the Security Command, and Zhang Xueliang during his youth, both regarded Laolongkou liquor as the soul of the nation, strongly supporting and protecting its development. During the War of Resistance Against Japan, the fate of Laolongkou changed. The Japanese invaders severely destroyed Laolongkou, forcibly occupying its courtyards, demolishing its houses, and constructing a military factory on the land. Meng Xianyu, the owner of the liquor workshop, fearless of oppression, used the spirit of the nation's liquor to engage in a fierce struggle with the invaders. His patriotic heart shaped his upright and unyielding character, truly embodying the courage and integrity of the Chinese people. The work takes the liquor culture of the Republican era as its main theme, combining it with the food and cultural history of Shenyang for description. The writing style is delicate, and the plot is full of twists and turns, making it deeply immersive and naturally flowing to read.
