Chapter 598: A New Business of Trouble
While humming a little song while taking care of a big goose, Wen Xu is preparing to try Lao Dao's recipe at night to see if he can make the flavor that Lao Dao just took out of the baggage.
was happily busy, the figure of Yan Dong appeared at the door, I saw him stretching his head to look in, and saw Wen Xu sitting in the yard with goose feathers, and immediately walked in with a smile, and beckoned when he entered the yard, followed by a tall old black, this guy is at least one meter ninety-five to two meters tall, and it is quite strong, and he looks like a basketball player.
"Coming back?" said Yan Dong to Wen Xu.
"Hmm!" Wen Xu saw that there were still guests, and immediately stood up from the bench, and showed a grateful look to Lao Hei, indicating that he had water on his hands and it was not good to shake hands with him.
Yan Dong introduced at this time: "This is Joe, our new Truffle American partner!" After speaking, he said to Lao Hei: "This is Xu, the largest shareholder of our company, and the chairman of the board of directors!"
"What kind of chairman, it's just a name and "Wen Xu's mouth is English."
Who knew that the old black man calmed Wen Xu with one mouth, and he spoke fluent standard Mandarin: "It's okay, I can speak Chinese, I used to study at Peking University, and I also stayed in China for eight years!"
Wen Xu said with a smile: "No wonder your Chinese is so good, if you don't look at your appearance, your accent can't tell that you are a foreigner on the phone."
"That's it!" said Joe, smirking smugly.
Wen Xu asked at the harsh winter, "How is today?"
"It's been good these days, and I don't know how to drop, the colder the weather here, the higher the yield of truffles, and now I can harvest two or three hundred catties a day!
"Is it a good market?" Wen Xu asked again.
Yan Dong said proudly: "It's not a question of whether the sales are good or not, but the sales are good, very good, among all the truffles on the market now, our quality is the highest and the fragrance is the strongest, or Qiao will not come all the way to talk about cooperation!"
Wen Xu didn't quite understand a little, why did he have to cooperate with this black old beauty named Qiao when his sales were so good, couldn't he just finish it, I heard about the truffle partner, Wen Xu thought it was not selling very well.
However, Wen Xu was not stupid to ask this question until now, but took the matter with a hum.
Yan Dong saw that Wen Xu didn't speak, and mentioned another thing with a smile: "By the way, your one sold truffles on it!"
"If you don't mention it, I'll forget it, how much did it cost?" Wen Xu asked casually.
"Remove all the messy expenses, there are still 270,000 US dollars left to you, I brought you the check today," Yan Dong said and took out the check holder from his arms, took out a check from it and handed it to Wen Xu.
When Wen Xu heard about the 270,000 US dollars, he immediately replied: "So much?"
"There must be so much, it has to be Qiao's idea to sell so high, if it weren't for him, the price would have fallen by at least a third, we used to think a little bit wrong, why can't we afford to sell Chinese goods at a high price, in the eyes of foreigners, we just don't have to force it, I don't know how to dress up like a little girl......"
Seeing that the harsh winter was about to teach himself a vivid economic lesson, Wen Xu immediately raised his hand: "Where to eat at night?"
As soon as Yan Dong heard about eating, he immediately changed the topic: "Is it okay to eat at your house?"
"Are you used to eating Chinese food?" Wen Xu asked, turning his head to Qiao.
Qiao immediately nodded: "As long as you don't have American-style Chinese food, I'm used to eating it!"
Joe has been in China for a long time, and he has almost trained his stomach into two modes, but it is like American Chinese food, or Chinese food he can't stand it.
This black old beauty is quite humorous!" Wen Xu thought to herself.
"Okay, there's a roast goose in the evening, and by the way, I can get some fatty intestine fish and a pot chicken!
Without waiting for Yan Dong to answer, Joe said, "Sichuan flavor?"
Seeing Wen Xu nodding, Qiao nodded with satisfaction: "That's excellent!"
Wen Xu almost went off mentally as if he had seen some TV series.
Just like this, Wen Xu motioned to Yan Dong to bring gloves to pluck the goose feathers, Wen Xu got up and went to catch the chickens again, and Qiao also asked for a pair of gloves to help pluck the goose feathers together.
Wen Xu didn't take two steps out of the door, and heard his daughter-in-law's voice behind him: "Are you back?"
As soon as he turned his head, Wen Xu saw that Shi Shangzhen had even put on his hat, so he said with great satisfaction: "I'm back, why did I come back so early today, it's okay when it snows?"
"No, I'm going to go out soon, by the way, don't cook tonight, let's go to grandpa's house to eat, Brother Shang Wu is here, and I'm going to the province after eating" Shi Shangzhen said.
"That's not good, Yan Dong brought a cooperative foreigner over, and he wants to eat at home, I think so, where do you go to eat grandpa, I greet guests at home, anyway, Brother Shang Wu is not an outsider, when the time comes, wait for the goose on my side to be roasted, and send you another half over, what do you think?"
Speaking of this, Wen Xu remembered that Yan Dong had given the check just now, so he took it out of his arms and walked to Shi Shangzhen and handed it over: "This is the money from the last big truffle, and the sale is quite expensive, much higher than originally expected."
"Two hundred thousand dollars? This is indeed high enough," Shi Shangzhen said with a smile.
Wen Xu listened and asked curiously: "How do you know about 270,000 US dollars before you read the check?" After speaking, he thought for a while and couldn't help but reach out and pat his head: "I understand, it must be the propaganda of this kid in the harsh winter, if he doesn't say that he can suffocate him to death, I said why is the production of truffles getting higher and higher now, he is really a profiteer!"
Shi Shangzhen smiled and said, "This is also a good thing! Everyone has another income, and Xudong is almost the leader of this truffle acquisition" Shi Shangzhen said with a smile.
Wen Xu is not interested in what the faucet is not the faucet, Xudong is not the faucet then it is strange, now the truffle dealers from all over the country want to collect truffles from Wenjia Village, it is basically impossible, because they have too many intermediate links, give the price of Xudong, except for the small truffles that Xudong does not want or the truffles that are not up to standard, they also can't receive any goods, such as Lao Qin, these old masters in the mountains, to the vicinity of Wuma Lake to pick truffles, the first choice is Xudong, there are a few old styles since they were deceived by the traffickers once, but also sold good big truffles to Xudong。
"It's important to see next year!" Wen Xu said.
Shi Shangzhen asked, "What's wrong?"
"Next year, the big guy agreed to pick it after the autumn, which is naturally the right choice, if some people rush to pick the summer and put the money in their pockets first, it won't be long, and the truffle production area without Mahu Lake may become the second southern production area" Wen Xu is a little worried, people's hearts are greedy, as long as this thing makes money, some people will dig those unripe truffles in the summer, in exchange for one-tenth of the original price stuffed into their pockets.
Some things are not their own, everyone is afraid that they will not be able to sell for money, anyway, the land is not their own, the truffle is not their own, even if they sell an extra penny, it is their own, whether it is protected or not, whether it is mature or not, waiting for maturity in case it is picked by others, and they don't have a penny, then they can be picked early, who still waits for it to mature! Unless no one wants it! Sometimes things are bad because the thing is not their own.
Shi Shangzhen said with a smile: "Then you tell Uncle Zhou, you have to be ruthless in this matter to restrain this crooked wind!"
"Say it," Wen Xu said with a smile.
"This money?"
"You can keep it, alas, there's no place to use it!" Wen Xu said.
"Or buy gold bars?" Shi Shangzhen asked.
The two of them are now in the gold pit, as long as they have money, they will buy gold bars, and then Shi Shangzhen doesn't ask where Wen Xu is hiding, anyway, one is responsible for buying and the other is responsible for hiding the cooperation seamlessly.
"That's it," Wen Xu said.
After the two finished speaking, one went to catch chickens, and the other went back to the house to get something.
Wen Xu quickly brought a chicken out, and when he returned to the yard, Shi Shangzhen had already left the yard, and took care of everything with Yan Dong and Hei Lao Meiqiao, roasted the goose, and the servants went back to the house to chat.
Joe's black beauty is quite humorous, but this kind of humor is not the kind of ordinary black people who immediately take care of their hands and feet as soon as they speak, and the kind of unsteady body trembling, this Joe can see that he has a good educational background, and he can always make people feel very comfortable whether he talks or talks about things.
After waiting for the goose to be roasted, Wen Xu sent half of it to the old man, and then when he came back, he put on an apron and began to cook.
"Alright, Winter, clear the table!"
Wen Xu saw that a pot full of pot chicken was ready, so he shouted for the harsh winter to set the table.
"Why don't we go out and eat!" said Yan Dong, "There is a hot pot and wine, how boring it is to eat in the house!"
When Qiao heard this, he immediately nodded and said, "Okay!"
Wen Xu heard that the two guests said this, and it was not easy for him to say anything, so the host was free to do so, so he nodded, and the servants carried the hot roast goose, the steaming fat intestine fish, and a large pot full of red pepper chicken to the wooden couch in the courtyard, and each of the three took a flannel cushion and sat under the buttocks.
"White or red, white wine, Wuliangye, Moutai on my side, everything is available, and the red is still the French goods you sent last time I got married" Wen Xu watched the two sit down, so he asked.
At this time, Yan Dong remembered an incident: "Didn't you make a batch of red wine? How is the brewing, get a little bit and try it?"
If he didn't talk about the harsh winter, Wen Xu almost didn't remember that the wine he brewed had been in the space for several months, and it was estimated that it would take some time for this thing to be put outside.
"Then you wait, I'll get you a little bit to taste, just to help me distinguish what flavor is good!" Wen Xu immediately responded when he heard this, turned around and went into the house first and took two bottles of Moutai before entering the cellar.
Naturally, entering the cellar is not to get wine, but to avoid the sight of the two, the oak barrels in the cellar are not filled with wine, they are all water, and they are used for pretending, and the real wine is hidden in the space.
After opening the oak barrel, Wen Xu directly stored the bottle, took a copy of several wines, wrote down the labels, and then brought them out together.
Wen Xu's wine is divided according to the sugar content, for Wen Xu, he naturally likes sweet and sour tastes, and the harsh winter is about the same, and finally tasted that the two kinds of wine are liked, and the black old Mei Qiao is full of praise for the wine brewed by Wen Xu without adding sugar at all.
I saw Qiao gently shaking the bosom in his hand, watching the red wine flowing over the wall of the cup, leaving a faint hanging cup, stretching out his head from time to time to smell the aroma of the wine in the cup, and kept saying: "This is one of the best red wines I have ever drunk!"
"If you like it, you can drink a few more glasses, and I'll get you ten liters when you leave!" Wen Xu was quite hospitable, and when he heard that the guests liked it, he immediately said that he would bring it to you when he left!
Who knew that Qiao smiled and put down the wine glass in his hand: "Xu, how much does your wine produce in a year?"
"If it's all brewed, it's about a dozen barrels!" Wen Xu said.
Although the grapes in the space can be picked infinitely, how strange it is that the vineyard outside Wenxu is so large to pick grapes of dozens of hectares.
Joe put down his glass: "If it can be of this level, I am willing to act as your red wine! My requirement is that the quality should be guaranteed like this, and only eight hundred bottles a year will be brewed, not more!"
"Selling wine?" Wen Xu was a little unhappy, he was not short of money! What did he do with so much money, he stayed in a small village all day and didn't want to run around the world, and he didn't have to buy a plane! Why did he want so much money?
