Chapter 311: The First Barrel of Wine
Watching Miles take out a small dried fish from a small jar on the coffee table and feed it to Reading Li, and then patted Wang Bahuzi dotingly and praised it twice, it is estimated that Miles is not so fond of his little models, Ju An lifted the luggage in his hand: "I'll go up and put the luggage down first, and I'll talk to you later, where is my room?" ”。
Mike said, "You can go up to the room by yourself from last time."
Ju An carried the luggage upstairs to his room and put it away, then turned around and went downstairs, Miles was drinking beer on the sofa and chatting, Ju An took a bottle of beer from the refrigerator, unscrewed the lid and threw the lid into the trash can, sat down on the empty dang next to Miles, just drank a few sips of the king and began to crawl on his legs, trying to stay away from Ju An.
After reading it, Miles smiled at Juan and quipped: "Reading Li said that he doesn't like you very much, he is not afraid at all when he sees Van and Nion, and he is not a good person when he sees you always crawling away."
He took a sip of beer: "Don't care if I'm a good person, can I meet the brewer tomorrow." Ju An didn't look at the big Wang Ba, we Chinese who have nothing to do to raise a Wang Ba as a pet, everyone is raising a dog or something, become a father and mother, Ju An and Dinah have also become Teddy's big dads and mothers, how troublesome it is to raise this thing, glanced at Miles, Ju An suddenly burst out laughing, remembering that Miles is now Wang Ba's father, and his married wife in the future is Wang Ba's mother, isn't that a child a little Wang Ba, as soon as this thought came out, I really couldn't help but laugh tears were about to come down.
Several people next to the laughing were stunned, and Wang Fan asked, "What do you want to be so happy!" ”。
Ju An said: "I remember, now that Miles is the eighth father, I am so happy."
Wang Fan laughed when he heard that he had just poured a sip of beer, and he almost squirted out. Miles and Nien Mack were all on the side and asked why?why?, I didn't understand why this Miles became a pet dad so funny, isn't this a normal thing.
Wang Fan explained for a long time, and the three beauties didn't think there was any laughing, they really had no choice but to say that it was a cultural difference, which revealed the matter.
After chatting for a while, Wang Fan said to Ju An: "It's not early, Anzi, you go to cook, and this glorious task organization will be handed over to you."
Ju An glanced around: "Everyone knows how to make steak, just order and eat if you have any trouble."
Mike smiled and said, "Everyone is going to have Chinese food tonight, and I recommend you to cook."
"Chinese food? There are no ingredients here, what kind of Chinese food to eat, let's just get some steak or something, just deal with the past," Ju An said with a wave of his hand.
Myers said: "Don't worry, all the food is available, and whoever takes everyone to the Chinese supermarket to buy it is in the refrigerator in the kitchen."
Depend on! Feelings these guys are prepared, Ju An had to stand up from the sofa, walked into the kitchen and opened the freezer on it to see, it was stuffed full, what chicken nuggets and carp actually had, and there was this plastic bag on the kitchen counter, what salt, monosodium glutamate, and dried chili peppers were all unopened, and at a glance, I knew that a few guys had premeditated, so I had to roll up my sleeves and start making dinner.
After being busy for more than half an hour, spicy chicken nuggets, braised carp, braised eggplant, shredded celery and pork, sour and hot potato shreds, plus a large plate of beef and green bean fried rice, the small table was full of praise, and Miles was full of praise for eating. But when eating fish, the belly basically entered the mouth of three foreigners, the back and the fish head fell into the bowl of Ju An and Wang Fan, a table of dishes but everyone ate to support, after eating, the four sat on the edge of the table and played poker, of course, with a little color, it is also a small gambling pleasure, Ju An is not very good at this, sitting on the side and watching the four people play, until almost twelve o'clock in the night, a few people went back to the room to rest.
Early the next morning, a few people headed for the vineyard with their luggage, and after the official handover of the vineyard today, the owners of the vineyard in Ju'an were ready to spend the night in the vineyard, and Miles asked them to change all the sheets in the house to new ones yesterday, and clean the house well.
I bought a newspaper on the way, Mike glanced at it a few times and handed the newspaper to Ju An's eyes, Ju An took a look, and the big headline on it, Leiden Biotech injected seven and a half million dollars to cultivate new grapes, and then the photo of the old man and a middle-aged man in a suit and leather shoes, and then the whole article was a burst of praise for the old man, what next year this new variety can surpass Cabernet Sauvignon It is expected that in a few years new grapes will be all over the vineyards in California.
Ju An finished reading the article and threw it to his seat: "What does it have to do with us, next year will be Cabernet Sauvignon."
As soon as he got off the bus at the door of the house, he walked through the lush vineyards and sighed, "It's a pity that such a good vine has to be cut down."
Ju An and Wang Fan didn't care, the old man was not there when they entered the house, only the old man's lawyer was present, and there was nothing to hand over, Nien came forward to do the matter well, because the grapes in the vineyard have been harvested, the old man's lawyer will come over to supervise a few cut vines in a few days, it is the tail of the grape harvest season, and the manpower is not too easy to hire, Nien tried to delay for a few days, but the old man's lawyer did not let go, and he insisted that within five days, After Ju An heard it, he really didn't know what to say, so the mud horse was like this.
said to Mike: "Don't wait a few days, if you can find someone today, if you don't have good staff, then pay more money, if you can find someone, cut it today, I look at it!" ”。
After hearing this, Miles smiled and said, "Let's see tomorrow, now that the grapes are being harvested, it will be difficult to find manpower or something, and thirty hectares of vineyards will require a lot of manpower."
After hearing this, Ju An said to Miles: "Then you can arrange it, and quickly pull it out and let them go."
"Okay, don't be angry, the old man's thoughts are normal," Wang Fan said with a smile.
Ju An smiled and didn't speak after hearing this, his heart was like eating a fly, buddy said that you want to plant Cabernet Sauvignon at most, you don't worry about coming over next year to see if you know, you have to cut grapes in five days, this Nima is catching up with the tail of the harvest season, and I clearly want to disgust buddy, buddy, but let's see what the grape seeds that have been watered for two months and diluted space water can grow next year. It's not to be low-key, and I will directly remove the vines from the space and tell you what makes a good grape.
Sullen for a while, according to the agreed time, the new winemaker drove over, Ju An thought that the winemaker's assistant should be younger, in his thirties, who knew that he would find out that he was a middle-aged man in his forties.
Mike smiled and shook hands, "Welcome, Burnst, these are some of my friends." Then he began to introduce Burnst one by one.
After a few pleasantries with Burnst, several people took Burnst to see the vineyard, and Burnst also knew a little about the situation in the vineyard, after all, they were all mixed in the wine circle.
After looking around, Ernst said to the shareholders of Ju'an: "I hope to have greater rights, such as in terms of grape varieties, and in terms of hiring managers, and I hope to get your support in this regard."
After hearing this, Ju An glanced at Mike and Wang Van Myers, looked at several people and nodded slightly, and said to Burnster: "You can call the shots about the vineyard, we will leave all the winemaking management to you, we do not interfere with the normal management of the winery and the vineyard, we only pay attention to the quality of the wine, I hope you understand this, we don't want to buy a vineyard wine that no one likes to drink."
After hearing this, Bernst smiled and nodded: "This request is very reasonable, I will do my best to make first-class wines, but I want to grow some Cabernet Sauvignon and some Malbec, Merlot."
After hearing this, Mike said: "The planning of the vineyard is also left to you, and we do not interfere with the production of the winery at all."
"Then I don't have any problems," Burnst quipped, shrugging his shoulders, "and it's not easy to find a boss with so much power right now."
"Then, let's work together happily" Ju An stretched out his hand after hearing this, shook hands with Bernst, and Wang Fan also walked forward to shake hands one by one, so that the new winemaker of the vineyard was settled.
Miles and Mike were busy on the phone all afternoon to recruit people, but luckily the two of them had mixed up in California, after all, the family also had vineyards, and it took a little more money to get people together, and the next morning they began to cut down the vines in the field.
The vines were cut, which did not mean that there was nothing to do in the winery, and Burnst arrived at the winery the next day and accepted the management of the winery, and brought two men with him, and hired a few new coopers, and the small barrel workshop was busy, and began to repair and manufacture oak barrels.
A few coopers saw Ju An and said to Ju An, "Hello, bosses." The old man who saw the hoop barrel last time said happily: "Finally, I have started to make a lot of new wine, and the winery has begun to grow normally, and I have never been so happy in three years."
Miles smiled and said, "It will be normal every year in the future, don't be afraid that there will be nothing for you to do in the future."
The old man said happily: "It's good to have something, the winery should be like this, I hope we can have the best wine this year."
After chatting with the old man, Ju An arrived at the juice pressing workshop, watching the workers send boxes of picked grapes into the juicer, and the thick dark red grape juice flowed out.
"Why is it a little bitter and sour after tasting it?" asked Ju An.
Myers explained with a smile: "The grapes are all like this, they are very good, and the taste is not much different from Cabernet Sauvignon, and this year's wine must be good."
Ju An didn't ask when he heard this, and a few people looked around, and the people of the entire winery were nervously busy to welcome the first barrel of wine this year.
