Chapter 974: Everyone is looking forward to it
(Thanks to my friend Sheep Breed, Fifty-one Stones, Phantom Cang Cherish Summer, and Years of Haimeng's Reward and Encouragement)
IU has had so much fun at Andy's Ranch these days. The last time I came over, there was always a show to be filmed, and I couldn't do it by heart.
This time it was a complete relaxation time, and she herself directly lowered her age to a slightly higher level than Ah Fu, and then her daily task was to follow Ah Fu.
It's okay in this way, Liu Yunxuan and Michelle are worry-free, there are special people to play with Ah Fu, and the two of them are also rare to steal a few days of leisure.
Charlie has been busy in the past two days, not only coordinating the wildlife brought over from China, but also contacting Sotheby's International Real Estate to explore the psychological price of Wagner Farm.
After a few initial contacts, the results are not bad, at least I feel that the price over there is not so dead, that is, now I can basically get it for 700 million US dollars.
This can be regarded as a success, but Liu Yunxuan is not in a hurry, anyway, it is not bad for three or two months, and when the time comes, tens of millions of dollars will be discussed, and herds of cows will come out.
In fact, Briggs is now hoping that the reserve price of this farm will be lowered, so as to facilitate this deal.
Such a large farm deal will definitely enhance the company's reputation, and this is the largest farm traded in the United States to date.
Real estate transactions should not only look at the transaction price, but also look at the timeliness. If you keep the price high and put it there and no one cares about it, maybe it will be sold in a year or two, which is not good for your company and the Wagner family.
If they get the money earlier, they can also make some other investments, even if the return on an investment of hundreds of millions reaches 10%, it will be tens of millions. And I took over the sales agent of this farm on my own side, and the rest of the agency companies have been staring at it. If you sell for too long, I'm afraid that when there is a big ranch for sale, you will go to another company.
But he can only sum up these things in his heart. Not only can't you tell the employees, but you can't tell Liu Yunxuan and them. After all, they are agents, not Liu Yunxuan's entrusting party, and they always have to abide by certain professional ethics.
The only thing he could say about this was the Wagner family. The Wagner family also wanted to get out as much as possible, and since they decided to sell it. Of course, the sooner the better, so the price has dropped a bit.
The effect is indeed very good, there are more people asking for a price, and it is always stronger than before.
"Yun Xuan, isn't it time for Raymond to come back these two days?" Michelle, who was being held by Liu Yunxuan for a walk, asked.
"Well, I called the day before yesterday, but now that the resettlement has been completed, I can't do anything else, so I'll go over there to improve the soil when spring begins." Liu Yunxuan nodded and said.
Now the task on the side of the Chilean vineyards is to recruit the right people. We'll have to wait for the spring to bloom. And seeing that it's time for the grapes here to start picking and brewing, no one can leave Raymond.
"You, when he comes back and finds that there is no wine missing, see what you say." Michelle said with a smile.
Regardless of the ownership of those wines, Raymond is like a baby pimple for the first wines made by these old-world crafts.
Last time, because of the help of the members of the "Private Territorial Waters" club, Liu Yunxuan gave away a lot of barrels of wine. Although they didn't help much, they did a lot of work in the subsequent global unified action. ‘
Waiting for Raymond to find out about this would be a big deal. It's enough to choke. Fortunately, this is also used to avenge the wolves, although he complained with Liu Yunxuan for a long time. Didn't say anything more.
Well, now that there are a few barrels of wine left, I guess it will be better if Raymond doesn't jump when he returns.
"Hey, I'll have to fool around then." Liu Yunxuan sighed and said.
This Raymond is also a member of the research team, and sometimes he also admits death. Don't look at the usual giggling, that's what you don't care about him. This time he's going to have to fool around when he comes back. Even if you agree to more unequal treaties, you can do it.
"Actually, I'm looking forward to the wines that will be made this year." Liu Yunxuan continued.
"Last year, Raymond had a slightly worse control over the situation of these grapes, didn't he see that they had been modulated many times later. This year has accumulated experience, and the vintage is so good, but it is the year of the king of wine. ”
This is also the experience he summed up through the improvement of Edward's culinary skills. Although in the beginning, Edward's dishes made with ranch ingredients also tasted good. But compared with the current situation, there is still a big gap.
Now Edward's dishes are even better in the selection of ingredients.
Thinking about it, it is clear that Edward's understanding of the ingredients of the ranch was not so deep at the beginning, although the cooking time increased, and the characteristics of these ingredients became more and more understood, and the combination naturally complemented each other.
In terms of winemaking, Liu Yunxuan thinks it's similar. The proportion of grape varieties is the combination of materials, and the brewing process is the cooking technique.
After this year's accumulation of experience, Liu Yunxuan believes that Raymond should have mastered a lot in this area, plus this year's vintage, it can be said that the time, place, and people are all together, so he is also looking forward to Raymond.
However, there is a premise for this, you have to appease him first, although you won't pick a child, but in the future, if you want to control these wines as you like, I'm afraid it won't be so easy.
"Boss, Raymond just called, and he's coming from the airport to our side." At this time, Jack ran over and said.
Hearing Jack's words, Liu Yunxuan almost didn't fall. What is this called? It's really said that Cao Cao Cao has arrived. Just after talking about Raymond's family, he came back, why don't you be so can't help but chatter.
"Yun Xuan, you go back to the main house and wait, I'll go find Ah Fu and IU and stay with them for a while." Michelle looked at Liu Yunxuan and said with a chuckle.
She also thinks it's amazing, it's the first time the two of them have talked about Raymond in the past two days, and it's really a coincidence. However, she looked at Liu Yunxuan's bitter face after hearing the news, and felt that it was better to leave first, so as to save him from being pulled as a shield for a while.
"Haha, Ray is coming back fast enough, is he tired, do you want to go upstairs and rest first?" Before Liu Yunxuan could figure out how to fool Raymond, the people had already entered the house.
"Andy, didn't you do something sorry for me again, did you?" Raymond looked at Liu Yunxuan and asked suspiciously.
This is not normal. Now the relationship between the two is still very good, although they have not known each other for a long time, but they know each other very well.
Now that Liu Yunxuan said so politely, Raymond instinctively felt that this thing was not always right, and there must be a demon when things went wrong.
"That Ray, don't you see Fangfang and they are making movies, I thought that the winery was hers anyway, so let's contribute to her career, and gave out some wine for the promotion of the movie." Liu Yunxuan said very embarrassed.
He also muttered in his heart that his boss had failed too much. I have to follow the staff to pass the small words, I'm afraid no one will believe it. What's the way, these are all my friends, so let's coax them first.
"That's it? I knew that when Aniston went to the winery to select wines. Raymond looked at Liu Yunxuan and said angrily.
Aniston is also a anxious person, but she knows how good the red wine is, and now that she has finally knocked it out, she has to put her name on it quickly.
Since the last wine delivery incident, Raymond has also been very strict with the rest of the wine, and when the time passes, the people in the winery will report to him in time.
However, he also knew that Aniston had a very good relationship with Liu Yunxuan's family, and he didn't care about it when he saw that the introduction of the new film press conference in the news report was indeed successful.
He didn't care about this kind of normal, he was afraid that Liu Yunxuan would send it out casually if his brain was hot. If you don't look at him to order it, it is estimated that these wines are not good, and they will be sent away by him.
"Huh? You said it earlier, so I was still cautious. Seeing Raymond's indifferent reaction, Liu Yunxuan let out a sigh of relief, this saved himself from fooling, he hadn't thought of this word yet.
"But you really have to pay attention, this batch of wine is the first batch of wine produced after the winery changed its name, even if you don't care about money, we have to keep some for ourselves as a souvenir." Raymond looked at Liu Yunxuan's lazy appearance and reminded him.
He knew that Liu Yunxuan had always been very generous to his friends, and he couldn't really not let him touch the rest of the wine, so he could only give him a wake-up.
"Don't worry, Ray, I feel sorry for these wines, isn't this all in time. Don't worry, in the future, if we can not move this wine, we will not move. Liu Yunxuan looked at Raymond and said.
"But I'm looking forward to the wine you're going to make this year, so let's work harder, and let's try to make a store similar to the King of Wine."
"This year's wines here will definitely receive more attention because of their good vintage, and it is up to you whether our winery can become famous again. Have a good time, and our new winery will be able to follow suit. ”
Although whether the winery is good or not, it doesn't depend on who your boss is or who the winemaker is, but more about the product. But it's all in Napa Valley, and it's the same grape variety and winemaker, which is good for the new winery to grow in the future.
"Don't worry, otherwise I wouldn't have rushed back in such a hurry. During this time, I will be going back and forth between the United States and France, monitoring the ripeness of the grapes at all times, but you have to tell the ranch to prepare the oak planks, which will be used in large quantities this year. Raymond nodded.
As a winemaker, he cares more than Liu Yunxuan. Some people will say that they were lucky for last year's results, and if this year makes another top wine, let's see what these people have to say. (To be continued......)
