Chapter 242: Pouring Wine for Mr. Chen
Rum is considered a famous wine in both China and abroad.
This world-class wine is only available to some wineries. And like Yicheng, people who can afford to consume rum are definitely not ordinary people.
At least, look at Yicheng. There are not many restaurants that can take out 78 degrees of rum like a diner's house. It can even be said that there are only a handful.
But it's so rare and expensive wine. Chen Yuan actually said that he wanted a box?
Are you selling rum as Hanxia beer?
"I'm sorry. Mr. We have a rarity of strong rum here, and we usually buy it by the bottle...... "The waiter explained.
He also thought that Chen Yuan was a dirt bun who had never ordered wine, and he didn't know much about the rarity and nobility of rum.
"That's right. I'm talking about a box!"
"According to my Hanxia, a box is 24 bottles. You can't have so many in this restaurant, right?"
"If you don't even have that little stock, then don't sell alcohol. ”
Chen Yuan said again.
The waiter felt like he was sweating again.
"Sir, I would like to remind you once again that our strong rum Angodula is $25,000 a bottle, which is equivalent to 150,000 Hanxia dollars, and this wine is limited to 20 bottles in the world, and our winery only has two bottles...... the waiter explained.
Chen Yuan thought it was rum of any strength, but it was actually Angosdura wine. This is a limited edition edition of the Rum Company, and the bottle opener that comes with it is bought and collected by many well-known people in the wine industry.
This wine is out of print, and the price of this wine is definitely only going up and not down.
"Then bring these two bottles of Angostura from your shop. Chen Yuan didn't care about the price of the wine. I really want to taste this out-of-print wine.
"I'm sorry, sir. These two bottles of wine are the treasures of our town store, and I have no authority to deal with them. I'll have to ask our manager. The waiter's attitude was completely respectful.
Joke, after listening to his offer, he can still shoot the wine so casually, that is definitely a rich man.
A rich guest is not a guest, but a rich guest is God in the diner's house. He had to ask the lobby manager.
Maybe even the manager can't be the master, and you have to ask the store manager for this kind of thing. After all, this is the store manager's collection, and he has never intended to sell it.
From the beginning of the store, there were many people who asked for the price, but none of the people actually bought it.
So after determining Chen Yuan's willingness to buy, the waiter was so shocked.
"There is also a box, I really think it is a cheap commodity in China. ”
"It's really dirty buns. It's just a little bit of money, but the insight still can't change. ”
Hua Xinya equated Chen Yuan with the kind of nouveau riche who was rich.
When she saw that Chen Yuan really took out her bank card and was about to buy wine, she understood that her wish to see Chen Yuan's jokes had been disappointed.
How could she have thought that an unknown first-level lecturer could really come up with hundreds of thousands of dollars to buy wine?
This money may not be earned after several years of hard work. Not to mention being able to spend it in one go.
In this way, it is no wonder that when she saw that Chen Yuan really took out her bank card to buy wine, Hua Xinya was so sour.
"Teacher Chen. Don't be convinced. ”
"Listen to the tone of your case, and I know you don't understand rum. This kind of wine is actually not uncommon in Hanxia, and low-grade rum can even be bought on a certain Internet for more than a hundred speeds. And the better ones, you can get a few thousand dollars. ”
"Only this limited edition rum, this monumental liquor, is out of print. In more than 200 countries around the world, it is also a valuable thing. ”
"Today, if the manager conveys the store manager's wishes, saying that he is willing to sell, then we will be blessed. ”
"But, in my experience, he is absolutely unwilling to sell. When this kind of wine first came out, the price had reached 150,000 yuan, and what the waiter said just now was probably just the label price on the container, and when it was actually taken out, it would definitely be several times more expensive. ”
As if grasping Chen Yuan's weakness, Daniel began to frantically show off his level of knowledge in front of Hua Xinya and Yu Xue'er.
This scene simply sets off Chen Yuan like a dirt bun.
However, Chen Yuan didn't seem to mind Daniel. He drank his tea while waiting for the waiter to serve him.
It's not that Chen Yuan doesn't understand wine, on the contrary, he thinks rum is cheap because he has asked for a lot of good wine on the battlefield.
Seventy-five degrees and seventy-eight degrees of rum abroad have a price, and the highest must not exceed a thousand. As a top hotel in Yicheng, the price will naturally be more expensive.
So Chen Yuan didn't mind coming directly to the twenty-four bottles and drinking with Daniel. When the time comes, it will be seen who can't drink well, and they will look foreign.
But I didn't expect that the 78-degree rum mentioned by the waiter would be the kind of limited-edition and commemorative out-of-print wine. The symbolism of this wine is already greater than its actual value.
Therefore, Chen Yuan's expectations for this wine are even stronger than that of Professor Daniel. Even Daniel's pretended words have long been ignored.
"Just wait. When the waiter comes back, he will definitely return the favor, this wine is not sold. ”
"Or rather, just take out a bottle of wine and sell it, and the price of this bottle will definitely change!"
Daniel said with great certainty like a living prophet.
At this moment, the waiter really came up with a bottle of rum. And in front of him, there is a man in a black suit with a floral tie.
From the announcement responsibility column at the front desk, it can be known that this man should be the lobby manager in charge of the restaurant here.
"Contemptible lobby manager Cai Xu, sir, this is the Angosdura wine you wanted. Cai Xu stepped forward and said to Chen Yuan with a Western gentleman's etiquette, and said extremely respectfully.
"Look. I knew that even if I was willing to sell it, I could only take out one bottle. Daniel couldn't be happier because things were going the way he had predicted.
Cai Xu glanced at Daniel and ignored him. Instead, it continued to explain like Chen Yuan.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Chen. This Angostura is the treasure of our town shop, and it would not have been sold according to the wishes of our store manager. Cai Xu continued. His attitude was very sincere.
And Daniel raised his neck even more, constantly glancing at Yu Xue'er. It's like saying, look, I've analyzed it. Listening to the tone of the lobby manager, the next sentence is definitely about to increase the price.
"The price is not an issue, you name it. Just swipe it directly on the card. Chen Yuan said indifferently. His eyes were already on the bottle of Angostura.
It's not the strongest vodka, but it's also an out-of-print wine.
"Nope. Mr. Chen, you misunderstood. ”
"We have changed the price of Angostura and we only give you one bottle. But that doesn't mean we're sitting on the ground. ”
"Instead, the manager saw your bank card and decided to give you the bottle of Angostura directly. And all your purchases for tonight are free. ”
"Please Mr. Chen don't refuse, this is a piece of our store manager's heart. He just wants to borrow a good relationship with you. He said that if he hadn't been on a business trip, he wouldn't have been able to come back right away. I will definitely come out to receive a distinguished guest like you in person. ”
Cai Xu said very sincerely.
He respectfully returned Chen Yuan's Supreme Dragon Card, and personally picked up the wine opener that matched the Angostura wine, and personally opened the Angodula wine for Chen Yuan.
"Mr. Chen, use it lightly!" Cai Xu respectfully poured wine for Chen Yuan.
Daniel and others looked at it. If he hadn't seen this lobby manager at the front desk, he would definitely think that this Cai Xu was hired by Chen Yuan for money.
