Alfonso couldn't see the gloom he was when he first saw him, now he looked very energetic, and his face was also very ruddy, Zhen Fan felt for the first time that he was also so tall and burly. He knocked on the door, then came in at the signal of Sampson, shook hands with Zhen Fan, and thought of an old gentleman.

"Tell me about this year's harvest!" Sampson lay comfortably on the boss's chair, leaned back, and then pointed his finger at Zhen Fan, signaling that he wanted Zhen Fan to report.

"That's right, Mr. Zhen, the harvest of our vineyard!" Alfonso Jennings took a breath, then took a look at Zhen Fan's introduction, and thought about Zhen Fan's introduction in a very steady voice, "Our harvest was unexpectedly good, and ...... This is the best quality grape I have ever seen. The yield is very high, and the taste is perfect for sake brewing. I reckon we're going to have the best wine we've been making this year in 40 years. ”

Zhen Fan nodded, this guy has been talking for a long time, it's just some nonsense, no substance, no specific numbers, you can only imagine it with your brain, this is what Alfonso lacks, this is much worse than the young John Harris, but Zhen Fan doesn't need him to be a statistician, he just needs his winemaking experience.

"Very good, so can you tell me about your method of making wine? After so many years of making wine for the Chrislan family, I thought we needed to talk about the process of winemaking, okay? Zhen Fan said, pointing to the sofa next to him and motioning for Jennings to sit down.

When it comes to winemaking, sure enough, this guy's eyes light up. Obviously, he was very proud of his craft. He knows the Chrislan family's winemaking skills by heart.

"Let's go talk in the private room next door!" Zhen Fan pointed to a room in the office and smiled at Alfonso Jennings. "I think we're probably going to have a lot of things to discuss!"

"Alright, please!" Sampson shrugged his shoulders at Zhen Fan, in his opinion, the craft of winemaking is secret, and there is nothing to be suspicious of. On the contrary, it is a good thing for him.

Sampson walked over to the window and pulled back the curtains. Then he looked out at the vineyards in the distance, a large area as far as the eye could see, and he suddenly felt so comfortable. An ambition to do something big came to my heart, and this qiē seemed incredible before.

If it weren't for meeting Zhen, if it wasn't for his sincerity that moved him. Then you may also be an inconspicuous wine dealer running around the streets of New York. But now it's different. H.C.D., which is owned by itself, is now the most expensive luxury brand in the entire U.S. alcohol category. H.C.D has successfully entered the upper class society in the United States, and many dignitaries are proud to be able to produce H.C.D. Even the White House banquet wine will be designated H.C.D., which is a great honor, if it were not for, if he was not allowed to borrow the White House for advertising, he would have begun to hype it up a long time ago.

Many wine distributors are eyeing his exclusivity. But Sampson never let up, because he knew that H.C.D. was not producing much. If you distribute other people, your own profits will be greatly reduced. But now it's different. Large-scale brewing is finally possible.

Even when Sampson released the news, a large number of liquor agents had already flocked to the company, all of whom wanted to obtain the agency rights for the new liquor produced by H.C.D. Of course, they did not blindly ask for agents, but pushed the cooperation to the wine tasting after the new wine came out.

After a while, Sampson retracted from his grand ideals, and by this time, Zhen Fan and Alfonso Jennings had not yet come out, and it was clear that they had a lot to discuss. So he made himself a cup of coffee and looked around the office.

Yes, there is still a lack of a good assistant to take care of this qiē.

The door in the middle opened, Zhen Fan and Alfonso Jennings walked out, Zhen Fan smiled, it was obvious that this conversation was very pleasant, and Zhen Fan still had some handwritten things in his hand, densely packed with pages. And the old Mr. Jennings blushed, as if he had drunk a large glass of spirits, and felt a little soothing.

"It seems...... Things are going very well! Sampson hurriedly caught up and smiled at Zhen Fan.

"Of course, just look at Alfonso!" Zhen Fan pointed at Alfonso Jennings, then turned to him and said, "Mr. Jennings, you know that the two of us know about this matter, but ...... To be on the safe side, you must sign a confidentiality agreement with us and ...... Our secret recipe must be locked in a safe, and the two keys, one each for you and me, can only take effect if they are opened at the same time. ”

"Of course, there is no problem with a qiē, Mr. Zhen!" Alfonso Jennings seemed to wake up suddenly, but he couldn't contain his excitement, "I am very willing to serve you for the rest of my life, knowing that I am dead." I promise that the sake brewed this time will surely satisfy all discerning people! ”

It's a bit of a big deal, but the more he breathes like this, the more Sampson feels that he is not far from success. He listened to the conversation between the two, and his face couldn't help but turn rosy.

"Alright, guys, aren't we going to have a toast to the success of this secret ingredient?" Sampson coughed dryly, a little excited.

"Of course, more than willingly!" Alfonso Jennings nodded hurriedly.

"I agree!" Zhen Fan also raised his hand and smiled at Sampson, "Don't hide your unfinished bottle of wine, take it out, let's celebrate together!" ”

"I knew I couldn't hide it from you!" Sampson pointed at Zhen Fan and laughed, then took out a bottle of hidden wine from the cabinet in the office, it was the height H.C.D. that Zhen Fan brewed, he took out three cups, and then each cup was less than half a cup, and handed it to Zhen Fan and Alfonso respectively.

"For H.C.D!" Sampson said.

"For everyone in the vineyard!" Alfonso Jennings also spoke loudly, thinking of all the workers in the vineyard who had struggled with the hardships, some of his friends with whom he had worked for many years. Now all the qiē will be better, because of the quality of the grapes and the best winemaking secrets.

"Sampson, didn't you give our new wine a nice name?" Zhen Fan raised his glass and was about to make a toast. I suddenly remembered this and hurriedly asked.

"I thought you had already figured it out, the naming right is your prerogative, Zhen, none of us can interfere with you!" Sampson shrugged his shoulders, what he said was very reasonable, if this wine was not named by Zhen Fan. That's missing a lot of meaning.

Even Alfonso Jennings agrees.

"Well, I'll think of a name. Now let's have a toast, for the sake of the wine! Zhen Fan diverted the topic, raised his wine glass again, and then the three of them touched it gently. Make a crisp "ding" sound. Raise your head and drink it all.

Sampson put down his glass, then smiled, "Now ......" and then did not say any more, because he saw Alfonso Jennings staring at the empty wine glass with some dementia, his face was very stern, and his lips were slightly trembling.

"Mr. Jennings—" he called tentatively.

Alfonso Jennings didn't react, as he had just looked, and it was clear that he hadn't come to his senses yet. Turned a deaf ear to Sampson's words.

"Mr. Jennings!" Sampson shouted again.

"What?" Jennings finally came to his senses and glanced at Sampson. Looking at his wine bottle again, he couldn't help but say, "This...... This is H.C.D? Is it the kind of H.C.D. that costs $50,000 a bottle? ”

"It should be a little better than that!" Sampson looked at Zhen Fan, saw that he was just sitting on the side and smiled, and then explained to Jennings, "This is some of Zhen specially brewed, and only a small part of it flows out of the market." Of course, I will give you a regular bottle of H.C.D to use as a reference when you make wine. ”

"God!" Alfonso Jennings suddenly said, "This is the best wine I've ever had, and I don't have one of the best wines in the United States that can be the top luxury in the United States, and it doesn't live up to its quality at all." Zhen, are you Dionysus sent by God (the ancient Greeks believed in the god of wine, who holds the power of wine to intoxicate people)? ”

"Dionysus?" Obviously, Zhen Fan still needs to add a lot of knowledge about Western religion and literature. He shrugged his shoulders at Sampson in a dazed way.

"The ancient Greek god of wine, in charge of the best wines!" Sampson smiled at Zhen Fan and said, "You should familiarize yourself with the literature related to rain grapes." ”

"Don't expect me!" Zhen Fan refused without hesitation.

At this time, Jennings's expression suddenly became a little depressed, he rubbed his hair vigorously with both hands, and showed a confused look at Zhen Fan, and then his lips squirmed a few times, but he didn't say anything. It lasted for a long time, and gradually became sad and sad, crying and mourning.

"What do you want to say? Mr. Jennings! Zhen Fan asked in surprise.

Jennings wanted to speak and stopped, but finally plucked up the courage to say to Zhen Fan: "Dear Mr. Zhen, I now know that your talent in winemaking is unparalleled and can be compared to God, but ...... One thing I was deeply troubled with was how I could make such a wine from the grapes in the vineyard and your secret recipe? ”

"I thought about it and thought it was almost impossible. I may be able to make sake that tastes similar to yours, but if I want to get to such a point, I think ...... There was nothing I could do about it. ”

"It's nothing!" It turns out that this person is an alcoholic idiot. Zhen Fan couldn't help but shake his head and laugh, then stood up and walked over and patted him on the shoulder, "If you can make a wine with a similar taste to this one, you are a very great brewmaster." ”

"Perhaps, because even if they are close, they can surpass other alcoholic beverages in the world." Jennings thought for a moment, "Even if you can't become a winemaking god like you, becoming the greatest brewing master is something worth boasting about for a lifetime and for many years to come, thank you, Zhen!" Saying that, he bent down to Zhen Fan and came to a medieval court etiquette to meet the emperor. (To be continued......)
