Chapter 447: Quid pro quo

If there is something that does not belong to the earth, but it wants people to get close to it, then I can tell you that it is not an alien, not Godzilla, or a meteorite in outer space, but Zhen Fan's wine. Of course...... Godzilla is a creature that makes people want to hide as far as they want.

That is, Gandalf believed that the wine should not have been on Earth. In other words, in Chinese, "This wine should only be in heaven, and the world should have the opportunity to taste it?" ā€

"Alas!" Gandalf sighed again, he looked at the bottle of wine, and then at the empty glass in his hand, as if he had made up his mind, "A million dollars, I'll pay a million dollars for a bottle!" I know you've got it in stock! ā€

"No, no, Mr. Gandalf, I can't do that!" Sampson seemed to be setting up a score, and quickly shook his head, "This wine is indeed extremely limited in quantity, a million dollars?" I don't think anyone who owns this sake will sell it. This is an unusually high collector's value! ā€

Sampson was right, the value of this wine was far from a million dollars to buy, but Gandalf really wanted to buy this bottle, so he gritted his teeth again, raised five fingers, and his voice trembled a little.

"Five million, if you're willing to change hands!"

As a person who loves wine very much, as a person who is as obsessed with wine as a lover, it is worth even breaking the bank for this lover. Five million dollars, but Mr. Gandalf could get the highest price, Mr. Gandalf was very rich, but because of the collection of some famous wines. His money was turned into wine. And it means that once the money is spent, he's going to have to settle down.

Bankrupt yourself for a bottle of wine that has been opened. It's a bit of an exaggeration, but nothing is impossible for an alcoholic idiot like Gandalf.

"No, Mr. Gandalf, I won't sell it even if you pay more!" Seeing that the fire was almost up, Sampson finally smiled mysteriously. "I've heard that you have a high reputation with the American Wine Culture Education Association, so ...... I have a request, if you think it's okay. Then this bottle is yours! ā€

"What's the matter?" Gandalf's face was a little unsightly, "Damn it, if you let me kill the president, I would even want to agree to it!" ā€

"It's not that hard. Mr. Gandalf. It's actually very simple for you. We want our staff to go to your academy for training......"

"Absolutely, it's very easy!" Gandalf didn't wait for Sampson to finish speaking, and immediately agreed.

"Don't worry, Mr. Gandalf!" Sampson quickly shook his head, "Actually...... The institution we want to go to is a private training institution of your educational society, and I know it's hard to get into that institution! But you can think about whether such an exchange is worth it! ā€

The institution that Sampson is talking about was privately established by the three main directors of the Wine Education Association, where you can taste fine wines and delicacies from all over the world. You can learn the most detailed information about the production, sales and markets of wines from all over the world, there. You can talk to top wine experts and winemakers to learn more about wine tasting, vinification, storage and more.

These are not the most important things, the most important thing is that you can meet the most authoritative people in the wine industry, and you can establish your own network of contacts in the wine industry, which will play a pivotal role in building your own wine empire in the future.

It seems that this guy invited these two very bullish characters just for this, and the so-called wine tasting is just a means to seduce these two guys.

Since it is a private organization, in order to enter this institution, it is necessary to obtain the consent of the majority of the people, especially the three persons in charge of the three who formed this institution. But now one has been done, and it's Gandalf, who is one of the three founders, and his words matter.

And Jayne is also one of the strong members of the important organization, so getting these two people basically achieved Sampson's goal.

"I ...... Can I think about it? Gandalf licked his lips, then glanced at the bottle and looked away with difficulty, "You know...... Although I am one of the founders, I am the one who has contributed the least, and all my money is used to store wine, and I have to be agreed by others. And...... Membership fees will be expensive! ā€

"I know that money can solve it, it's not a problem!" Sampson looked very arrogant at this time, "Don't worry, Mr. Gandalf, I won't give you this bottle of wine, I will prepare you a bottle of wine that has not been opened, and...... I will personally convince Zhen to bring out another bottle! ā€

"I'll do my best to give you the result!" Gandalf nodded at Sampson's words, and it was clear that an unopened bottle of wine was more collectible than an already opened bottle of wine, and the value was much higher. So as soon as Sampson said this, Gandalf immediately wanted to agree, but he still maintained the due restraint and did not immediately agree.

After the two negotiated, they suddenly saw Zhen Fan and Forbes walking in together, and the two of them said as they walked, Zhen Fan had always had such a faint smile on his face, and Forbes's face was relatively brighter.

"Have you negotiated?" Sampson asked.

"Of course, very good, thank you very much for Mr. Zhen's selflessness, I think I benefited a lot. It means a lot to me, and this time I came here is the most important turning point in my life, and it should be like this. "There's no exaggeration in what Forbes said, because that's what he actually thinks.

"Okay, then...... Why not celebrate? Sampson said, taking two more glasses and picking up the bottle, an action that made Gandalf's heart beat faster.

Each glass has a one-third standard amount of wine to taste, and when Sampson and Zhen Fan picked up the wine glass, Gandalf couldn't wait to pick up his own glass, and Forbes finally picked up the wine glass.

"For our cooperation...... Cheers! Zhen Fan mentioned yƬ, so everyone toasted together.

Inhaling deeply, and then tilting slightly, Gandalf tasted the glass with the most standard wine tasting action, and Forbes was still surprised by Gandalf's behavior, because when he was not tasting, ordinary people did not have to make such behavior.

But as he brought his lips to the rim of the glass, he understood why Gandalf was like this. The very mellow fragrance instantly permeated his entire sense of smell, and then penetrated directly into his heart and lungs, as if the heart and lungs were full of fragrant flowers, and the whole person became as vibrant as spring.

Forbes had to let go of the excitement in his heart, stabilize his mind, and slowly taste a small bite at a 45-degree angle.

The taste of the tip of the tongue exploded instantly, as if a chain of mines buried in the ground had been set off, and the taste instantly rolled the tongue all over. What is even more rare is that when the throat has entered the stomach, I feel the warmth inside, just like the warm sunshine on the spring grass makes people squint and relax.

He had the feeling of wanting to laugh, and he was shocked by the discovery that this wine can also affect people's feelings, and can vent people's inner feelings, even more intense and rich than H.C.D.

"God!" After a sip of wine entered his stomach, it took a long time for Forbes to exclaim, "Does God drink wine?" How did it spread to the world? ā€

Looking at Forbes's demented appearance, Gandalf on the side couldn't help but laugh, just now he tried his best to restrain his feelings, so he couldn't help but let himself make a similar sigh. Forbes's reaction was completely unexpected, so he couldn't help but think about how he felt when he first tasted it.

"It's a pity......," Forbes shook his head and sighed, obviously he was in the same mood as Gandalf, "this kind of wine is definitely not very much, and it is particularly precious, but even so, I can't help but ask: Zhen, if you can sell me a bottle, you can say it, you can prescribe any conditions!" ā€

Gandalf smiled dumbly, it was obvious that Zhen Fan, like Sampson, would not sell them, and he would not get a bottle unless he agreed to their conditions.

Sure enough, Zhen Fan put forward the same conditions as Sampson.

Forbes opened his mouth, looked at Zhen Fan, and couldn't help but look at Gandalf, everyone is a smart person, since Zhen Fan dared to say such a condition in front of Gandalf, he must have communicated with Gandalf, and it is likely that Gandalf has agreed.

Gandalf looked at Forbes and nodded with a smile, indicating that he knew about it and had compromised.

"Well, I agree!" Forbes is much more simple, because he can not only get a bottle, but what is even more rare is that some of his doubts in the past few decades of winemaking, after in-depth exchanges with Zhen Fan, have been perfectly answered, and I believe that when he makes wine in the future, he will brew more delicious and delicious wine.

So Forbes agrees with a lot of pleasure, because he makes more money than Gandalf in comparison.

A wine tasting session ended with a big harvest for Zhen Fan and Sampson. Journalists were able to taste the most famous H.C.D. for free, which made them feel worthwhile. Because after all, the price is there, and it is not something that these journalists can enjoy on a daily basis. So they may have praised Zhen Fan and Sampson in their reports.

And most importantly, for the future layout, Sampson can be regarded as the first step of success, entering the private club, and then making this top place in the United States and even the world where wine experts and wine merchants from all over the world gather to become an important place for DC wines to expand their influence and expand sales.

"Cheers!" After seeing off the two top experts, Zhen Fan and Sampson also had a small celebration in the office, and then Zhen Fan will rush back to Los Angeles, because the secretary Olivia has reminded him that Mr. President will arrive tomorrow afternoon. (To be continued......)
