Chapter 25 The Picking Festival in the Town

As the grape harvest approached, the renovation of Château Person was finally completed and the construction team gradually withdrew from the estate. www.biquge.infoGone are the dusty and old equipment of the old distillery, replaced by brand new buildings and machinery.

In order to accomplish this, Ye Chen and Antoine's family not only put in a huge amount of effort, but also spent more than 500,000 euros.

In other words, Ye Chen not only put his own money into it, but also owed nearly 400,000 euros in debt. Although there was no interest on the 400,000 euros, and looking at Elaine's appearance, he was not in a hurry to ask for it, but Ye Chen still felt like he was weighing on a heavy burden.

Bank loans, Elaine's loans, these add up to several million, once Ye Chen is unable to repay, his situation will be even more dangerous than before.

Whether Ye Chen wants to admit it or not, reality has pushed him to a dead end, and in order to keep the winery, he has no other way but to get a ranking in this year's wine tasting.

"Success or failure, in one fell swoop!"

Ye Chen, who was sitting on the bed, frowned, thinking in his heart how to make the winery produce more wine than other wineries. On the other side, Anna was already wearing a white dress and spun around in front of the mirror several times.

While turning, he kept asking Ye Chen.

"Ye Chen, you said that I wore that dress to the picking festival, how do I feel that these dresses are not as good as the one Miss Elaine wore that day." Anna looked at Ye Chen, who was leaning on the side of the bed, through the mirror and asked.

Ye Chen glanced at Anna, and said in his heart that your skirt is a Taobao special, and it will only cost dozens of euros to die. But Elaine's is Gucci's new model this year, a luxury item that women all over the world are crazy about.

Of course, you can't compare this one with hers.

However, of course, Ye Chen couldn't say this clearly, and when he heard Anna ask, he hurriedly grinned and said, "Anna, you just pursue perfection too much." I feel that you wear this white dress to match it very well, and it will definitely blind the eyes of those people! ”

Looking at Ye Chen's exaggerated expression, Anna pursed her lips and said, "I always feel that you are thinking about something bad." ”

But despite saying so, Anna still chose this white dress happily.

Anna finally finished dressing, and the two walked out of the small building one after the other. Half an hour later, Ye Chen and the two came to the long-lost Knight Winery.

Although Anna had wasted a lot of time getting dressed, it was still barely early in the morning. There was also a faint mist wafting through the vineyards, and there was a refreshing coolness in the air.

Seeing Ye Chen coming to the winery, Jacques, who was wearing a canvas suit, hurriedly greeted him, and said with some complaints: "You can be regarded as coming, the picking festival is about to start!" ”

In the past, Jacques was always dressed in exquisite luxury, and his whole body seemed to be covered with banknotes, but today he was surprisingly wearing a very simple set of canvas clothes, looking at his appearance, Ye Chen couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

"Hey, Jacques, why don't you wear money today?" Ye Chen accidentally said his true words.

"What?" Jacques stared at Ye Chen with wide eyes.

"Nothing, nothing." Ye Chen hurriedly waved his hand, at this time, there were already many guests gathered on the lawn of the Knight's Winery, Ye Chen didn't want to delay Jacques's time too much, so he didn't ask any more.

After chatting with Ye Chen for a few words, Jacques naturally saw the girl Anna who had been standing quietly by Ye Chen's hand.

Looking at Anna in a white dress, Jacques smiled and said, "Miss Anna is really getting more and more beautiful." ”

"Thank you, Master Jacques." Anna said shyly, but Ye Chen, who was familiar with her, could hear the joy in her tone. It seems that this is the common trait of all females, even vampires who have lived for hundreds of years.

Originally, Ye Chen didn't want to delay Jacques's time, but who knew that Jacques didn't want to leave by Ye Chen's side, and he kept chatting with him since Ye Chen came to the winery. From chatting with him, Ye Chen finally figured out why this guy with a sassy bag was wearing such a low-key dress today.

The reason is naturally related to the picking festival for a while.

According to Jacques, after a while all the men of Château Cavalier will go into the vineyards to harvest, as is the tradition of their family. A certain amount of work is carried out every year, so that the descendants of the family can maintain excellent qualities such as diligence and thrift.

In order to make picking more interesting, the seniors who held the picking festival also designed some more interesting games for the picking festival. One of them is the number of grapes picked in the competition, and whoever wins the championship will receive a kiss from the owner of the winery.

"The competition is based on groups of three, and at the end of the game, the total number of grapes picked is ......counted," Jacques enthusiastically explained the rules of the harvest festival to Ye Chen.

The rules are very simple, similar to some reality show games in China, Ye Chen understood it as soon as he heard it, but obviously he didn't care about these bullshit rules.

"Compared to these...... I would like to know who the hostess of the winery is? Ye Chen looked at Jacques and asked seriously.

"Of course it's my sister!" Jacques exclaimed. "That's why I can't let anyone but me get my sister's kiss!"

"Do you have a sister fetish?" Ye Chen opened his mouth wide and looked at Jacques.

Jacques said dejectedly, "Of course not, this is what Elaine forced me to promise her yesterday." Once someone kisses her, she will freeze all my pocket money for half a year. ”

"How much is the pocket money for half a year?" Ye Chen asked curiously.

"Hundreds of thousands of euros."

"Damn, you are the biggest."

"Don't make a fuss, what I said is true, this matter is really serious!" Seeing that Ye Chen was still absent-minded, Jacques couldn't help but raise his voice.

"But what does that have to do with me? I'm not from a knight's winery. Ye Chen shrugged his shoulders and said.

"You're my guest, I've reported your name, let's go together." Jacques finally told the truth about how passionate he was for Ye Chen.

Hearing Jacques's words, Ye Chen was taken aback, he hurriedly looked at Jacques, and found that this guy actually looked serious, and it didn't look like he was lying.

"It's not a big deal, but I don't pick grapes. I'll form a group with you, and I guess we'll only lose. ”

"It's okay, you're always a little better than me, and I also invited a manor owner, he picks grapes first-class, and we can definitely win with him!" Jacques said confidently.

In the interval between the two chatting, a silver-white Sao Bao sports car has stopped at the door of the winery, and the sports car is followed by two very stylish Harley-Davidson motorcycles. The roar of the locomotive immediately attracted the people on the lawn.

A young man with blond hair got out of the car, and then two strong men with big shoulders and round waists also stepped out of the motorcycle.

Looking at the two strong men, Ye Chen couldn't help but look at Jacques.

"They're not going to be there too, are they?"
