Chapter 98: Comprehensive Picking
Then Wang Lu also put the batch brewing of red wine on the ranch's agenda.
It just so happened that there were still a few days between the full harvesting of coffee beans and the end of the sisal field pest control work. I could take advantage of these few days to organize my employees to pick all the wild grapes in the mountain col.
.
Of course, we have to purchase a few more fully automatic brewing machines, otherwise the progress will really not be able to keep up.
But before that, Wang Lu also directly asked:
"James, tell me honestly, what price can you give me for these red wines? If the price is not high, I think I would rather taste it myself!"
This is to be honest. If the price offered by James is not high, why would Wang Lu bother to do so?
However, James, who had always been cheerful, hesitated when faced with Wang Lu's inquiry.
This caused Wang Lu to have some misunderstandings, and then he smiled:
"James, if you don't want to raise a price because you care about our friendship, there is no need at all. Just raise the price according to the market conditions!"
When James heard this, he helplessly spread his hands and said:
"King! Thank you for your understanding. In fact, this is not the only reason why I cannot give you an accurate price."
Obviously, James has other considerations, while Wang Lu is patiently waiting for the other party's explanation.
"I dare to vouch for my credibility, Wang! The quality of the red wine you brew is definitely not inferior to the red wines I have drunk that are worth thousands of dollars, but you know that in addition to its own quality, the red wine affects its value.
There are other important factors, you know I am a businessman..."
Wang Lu, who was still holding the bowl of sea food in his hand, gradually tasted the taste, and James' meaning was already obvious.
The high-end customers he receives are rich and generous, but they may not necessarily pay for a red wine that is unknown or not even produced by a regular winery.
For the same price, they have a lot of high-end red wines to choose from, so why choose the red wine produced by Wang Lu?
In other words, Wang Lu’s red wine is very likely not to bring profits to James.
As for setting the price lower, that's not impossible, but that would be boring. How many of the wealthy customers James receives are willing to drink low-priced red wine?
In short, to put it bluntly, the stuff is good, but I’m afraid no one is willing to pay for it.
After thinking about this clearly, Wang Lu suddenly became a little discouraged. He couldn't let James spend money to buy his own red wine and then smash it into his hands, right?
However, Old Sanders on the side said at this time:
"Don't worry, boss. Since the quality of the red wine you brew is so high, I think there will always be a way. In fact, I know that there are many red wine gold medal competitions every year. If your red wine can obtain a ranking in such competitions, it may be possible."
Make your wine famous."
After Old Sanders finished speaking, James on the side also echoed!
"This is exactly what I want to say. As long as it has a certain reputation, I think those customers will definitely be willing to taste it and try it!"
Even Harris, a fool, joined in the fun:
"King! I believe the red wine you brew will be better than those brewed by those damn wineries! Go ahead and do it boldly, and shock the jaws of those arrogant guys."
Wang Lu was also moved when he heard this. It was obvious that he knew nothing about any red wine selection competition and had never even heard of it. But since Old Sanders, James and James all said so, it means that this is at least a feasible option.
path.
"James, thank you for your suggestion, I will consider it!"
In fact, Wang Lu is already tempted. After all, this is about whether the ranch can have an additional source of income, so he will naturally give it a try if he has the opportunity.
"Wang! I will pay attention to some recent well-known red wine selection conferences. If there is any news, I will notify you immediately!"
James made a promise to Wang Lu. In addition to his friendship with Wang Lu, another factor that drove him to be so interested was probably the hope that Wang Lu's red wine would bring him a certain profit.

Then James also drank another bowl of red wine brewed by Wang Lu before leaving the ranch and returning to the town of Baria. Also leaving with him were orders for several more automatic brewing machines from Old Sanders and Wang Luduo.
Fortunately, the little old man brought an assistant with him when he came, so he could help drive and send James back, who was also drunk.
While everyone was there, Wang Lu announced his work plan for the next two days.
"Old Wei, how long will it take to spread pesticides on the sisal fields?"
"My boss, we can definitely finish the job in two days at most! Those drones are quite efficient!"
After receiving a positive reply, Wang Lu also nodded.
"Then don't go to the sisal fields tomorrow, pick those wild grapes first, and then we'll make this batch of wine!"
The remaining planting work in the sisal fields can be left to the recruited black labor force, and these wild grapes must be picked as soon as possible.
If the wild grapes growing in these mountain valleys are not picked as soon as possible, they will all rot in the ground and be wasted.
If all are picked and used to make wine, the longer the wine is stored, the better the quality will be, so there is no need to worry about aging.
Wang Lu's words were echoed by the veterans, who showed no resistance to this arrangement.
The next morning, a group of veterans, led by Wang Lu and Parker, brought their tools and headed to the place where wild grapes grow.
The terrain in the Woulu Mountains is so complex that even beach motorcycles similar to all-terrain vehicles cannot reach it, so we can only rely on manpower for round-trip transportation.
But fortunately there are many people, so as long as we go back and forth a few times, we can always finish it!
These veterans have all been trained cross-country in full gear, so their steps are very windy. This means that Wang Lu's body structure has been transformed, otherwise he would really not be able to keep up with others.
Because of this, it only took the group more than half an hour to arrive at the wild grape forest. After seeing the densely growing wild grapes, the group of veterans also sighed with emotion.
"The land here is so fertile, even these wild grapes are growing like crazy. If this were in my hometown, people would have cleared the land for crops long ago!"
After all, for these veterans whose hometowns are in China, it is common sense that mountainous areas are generally relatively barren, and the soil fertility is generally not as fertile as the fertile soil on the plains.
