Chapter 354: Elder Aaron's Methods

Ji Ran and the others have been waiting for Elder Aaron and the others to make a move, but it just so happens that winter has not yet passed, so there is no need to go out for the time being...... If they go out on an adventure and Elder Aaron and the others have some kind of ghost idea, Enlek really can't deal with it alone.

Although Anlek also has some channels of his own, many of them were established when TongguΓ² used to manage the Bright family's business. Rather than cooperating with him, they did business with him for the sake of the reputation of the Bright family. If something really happens, there are really few people he can rely on.

Then, soon, Elder Aaron's attack came.

A rumor suddenly appeared in the market that the amber distillery opened by Enlek had nothing to do with the Bright family. It was started by Anlek on his own - and he was now at a standout with the Bright family.

The Bright family still retains a little blood affection for the traitor of the family, but it is just that they do not fight him. If anyone else does something to the distillery, the Bright family will turn a blind eye and not meddle in their business - of course, the children of the Bright family can't be harmed.

Big families always have some bottom line. If you can't even keep your own children, then your prestige will not fall a little bit.

The words I said before are more like a lesson for the children who want to break away from the family.

The rumor spread so widely that it soon spread throughout Perth. Anyone who has something to do with amber has heard about it.

"Lord Earl, do you think this thing is true or false?" A middle-aged man with a red face and a fat and bloated face. He was nodding his head and asking for advice from a man dressed as an aristocracy.

"I don't think it's fake. I also have some friendships with some of the Bright family. Listen to them. It's because some people in the Bright family can't get used to seeing that Anlek making money outside and eating alone regardless of other people in the family, so they say so. The nobleman, who was called Lord Earl, tapped his fingers lightly on the table.

"So, we have a chance? If that Anlek is really helpless, Amber Distillery, we have a good chance of taking it! The obese middle-aged man's eyes suddenly lit up.

"Hmph, Doro. You've also been a housekeeper in my house for many years, can't you even see through this? The aristocrat looked at the fat middle-aged man's face with a hint of disappointment.

Doro's expression immediately became sincerely frightened: "Lord Earl, please forgive the villain for being stupid, I really can't see the truth in this......"

The Earl sighed, "Do you know why the Bright family would let out such words? Because they wanted this winery, but that Anlek wouldn't give it to them! Of course, if it were me, I would definitely be unwilling. This distillery was built by Anlek, that is, at the beginning, with the help of the reputation of the Bright family, so that others did not dare to fight the idea of the Amber Distillery. Miscellaneous. The Bright family didn't do anything...... Now, they want to take over the distillery in the name of their family. No one would want to. I put all my heart and soul into building this distillery, and you want to take it over without a little effort, where in the world is there such a good thing? ”

Doro nodded hurriedly: "That's right, the foundation he laid was taken away by others without a word, even if it was a member of his own family, he would definitely not agree." ”

"That's it." Lord Earl laughed, "So, those people of the Bright family who came to take over this distillery must have eaten a nail. But they were not reconciled - you can see the potential of the Amber Distillery, how could the people of the Bright family not see it? So they're not going to let go - but a head-on grab is unlikely, so they're taking a roundabout approach. ”

Doro's eyes widened suddenly: "Lord Earl means ......"

Lord Earl snapped his fingers: "Pressure the Amber Distillery!" Let them know that nothing can be accomplished in this world without a background! As soon as they declare that they will leave the distillery alone, there will surely be a large number of greedy people who will rush to swallow the distillery in one gulp. And that Anlek, after a period of time, after not being able to resist it, will inevitably hand over the distillery to them...... After all, it's still the same family and others, and it's better to hand it over to them than to outsiders. ”

Doro's face immediately showed a look of reverence: "Lord Count is right! If you think about it, that's true! The people of the Bright family definitely don't want this distillery to fall into the hands of outsiders, so releasing this rumor is just like putting pressure on An Lek! ”

Lord Earl nodded with satisfaction: "Those people in the Bright family are really good at tricks, and they really deserve to be the old families of the Ere Empire." If someone really wants to do their best to take down the brewery, it is estimated that it will be empty of people and money. That Anlek couldn't withstand the pressure, and he wouldn't hand over the winery to outsiders in the end. When the distillery is back in the hands of the Bright family, who will dare to do anything to the distillery? If you really put in the effort, you will definitely lose so much that you can't cry in the end! ”

Doro suddenly showed a cautious look on his face: "So what does the Earl mean, let's just watch from the side, and don't stretch out our hands?" ”

Lord Earl shook his head: "No! We're going to reach out! But our goal is not to swallow the distillery in one go, but to scrape the flesh from them...... In this way, we will be able to lose the most benefits and not end up losing money because of excessive investment. As long as you master this degree...... You don't need me to teach you this, do you? ”

Doro's eyes lit up surprisingly: "Lord Count is really wise! That's right, that's it! Take this opportunity to ask for a bite of meat on the distillery, and then immediately stop it and let the others continue to ask for it. By the time Enlek couldn't bear it anymore and returned the distillery to the Bright family, we had already withdrawn. In this way, we will get a large piece of meat for nothing, and we don't have to worry about getting hurt! ”

Lord Count laughed, "Yes, Doro, you've finally made some progress. Now that you know what to do, let's get started! ”

"Yes, Lord Count!" Doro bowed respectfully. Then exited the room.

"Whew. Even in the homes of nobles. It's not easy to be a subordinate......" After Doro left the room, the flattering smile on his face immediately disappeared.

How could he not know about those things before? Isn't that the reason for that look to highlight the wisdom of the Earl?

"But it's a good opportunity......

Doro thought as he left the Earl's mansion and began to make preparations.

This scene was played out in the homes of many nobles and merchants. But. Not everyone can see it so clearly. Quite a few people are gearing up to swallow the Amber Distillery...... This amber wine, the profit is too great!

For several months, amber wine was in short supply. Everyone who has ever drunk amber is full of praise for it, praising it as the most suitable wine for the general public, and the price is appropriate and the quality is excellent, and the evaluation of Amber Light is naturally even higher.

Amber wine has occupied the middle and low end of the market, and amber light has broken through the fortress of high-end wine, how can this winery not prosper?

The wages of the workers working in the distillery are already more than twice as high as in other places. Enlek invited a few winemaking masters with a lot of money. made a fortune. This made many people very red-eyed, and more than one person wanted to dig those old masters into themselves. Along the way, bring the recipe for amber wine - it's just that no one dares to do it because of the power of the Bright family.

But now it's different! The Bright family has declared that this distillery has nothing to do with them! In this way, the winery becomes a piece of fat in front of the wolves, and it is still unguarded......

Although Perth is a merchant city with a number of laws and regulations to protect the interests of merchants, there are not many restrictions on commercial activities such as mutual exploitation and poaching. After all, it was a commercial means - the king and the king, and the merchants also obeyed this creed.

And those old nobles and merchants who have been in Perth City for an unknown number of years are full of confidence - how can that little guy who is only in his thirties fight with us old merchants?

So, there was an undercurrent in Perth City, and the target was officially Amber Distillery.

As the center of the incident, it is naturally impossible for An Leke and Ji Ran and others to be ignorant.

"It's nothing to be poached, the wages I give to those masters are high enough, and the price of poaching is quite large. However, it is not excluded that some people are crazy to poach with a lot of money - but no one knows the complete recipe of those masters. A truly complete recipe that is only in my hands. However, if more than one master is poached at the same time, they can always deduce the amber wine recipe based on the different recipes in each person's hand......"

Enlek frowned. Recently, the inside of the distillery has not been so peaceful, and many workers have known about the rumors in the market, which has caused people to panic. Strange people began to come and go in and out of the homes of those masters, and I heard that a few masters were already a little moved.

"It doesn't matter, amber may be the best wine at this stage, suitable for low-to-mid-end people, but after a while, it may not be. And is the real recipe for amber wine so easy to circulate? Not to mention...... We still have the light of amber in our hands. Ji Ran was not as anxious as An Lek.

He's right. Even if the recipe of amber wine spreads, others can at most imitate amber wine, and the light of amber cannot be imitated in any way. That kind of Ji Ran's special koji, in this world, no one else can make it.

Maybe in time, Krees will have this ability - but only this ability. I don't know the recipe for the koji, and I can't deduce it even if I'm tired of it.

There is no light of amber, only amber wine, which at most is like ale, which has become the recipe of winemaking known to the whole continent - but it is the turn of the authentic, or the most authentic from here.

Because amber wine was originally a condensed version of the attribute wine that Ji Ran had cut a lot of materials to make - a little addition of one or two materials can make the taste of amber wine more mellow! Of course, the cost also has to increase a lot......

However, this is enough evidence to distinguish between an orthodox amber and a counterfeit amber. Even if the formula of amber wine spreads, it will only make the distillery's income a little less, and it will not affect the overall situation.

Just like there are many people who can make wine, how many can become fine wines? If amber wine can't take the route of selling more in the future, it can be made into a high-quality product!

Therefore, Ji Ran was not too worried.

"But it's not good. Those guys are all eyeing us, and they don't know when they're going to do it. Recently, there has been a sudden increase in orders for amber wine, and many people have let out an unquestioning tone and set a delivery date. There must have been a problem with this, so I pushed it off. But this kind of thing can't be prevented......"

Anlek was a little irritable. He knew very well that it was definitely the work of the Bright family - but there was nothing he could do.

Without the umbrella of the Bright family, it is too difficult to make a big business in this world.

Ji Ran understands this very well. Even in the original world, if you want to become a big company, you can't just have the skills and enthusiasm to do it - the relationship is very important.

It is only natural that the Bright family will open a breakthrough in this regard. I'm afraid that their idea is to wait for An Lik and himself to be unable to bear it, and then take the initiative to hand over the winery...... It is much better to hand it over to them than to be annexed by outsiders.

"It doesn't matter, without the Bright family, we still have a way to keep the distillery safe. Leave this to me, if there is a master who wants to go, just let them go. In the future, there will be times when they regret it. ”

Ji Ran sneered. What about the Bright family? In this world, the Bright family is not the only one who has the ability to protect the winery......

Unfortunately, I'm still an alchemist. The name of the alchemy master is sometimes very useful. Not to mention...... I can pull a few people myself to serve as an umbrella for the Amber Distillery!

The shape of the Amber Distillery is getting more and more severe.

Orders have increased dramatically. Enleke has pulled many sellers before, and the cooperation is also pleasant. But now, some sellers' orders are getting bigger and bigger.

Some sellers' orders have even become several times as many as before. As regular customers, they have a certain amount of priority - a clause that Anlek agreed to when he signed the contract with them. But if they were to be supplied in full force, some other sellers would not be able to guarantee that the Amber Distillery's current production capacity was still quite limited.

If this continues, it will inevitably lead to the dissatisfaction of other sellers, and the sales channels of the distillery will become narrow. And the sellers who have increased their orders, Anlek, do not think that they have the ability to swallow so much amber.

If they take the amber and don't sell it for a while, a lot of the amber channels on the market will disappear immediately, which will put a huge strain on the distillery. But if the sellers don't get enough amber wine, then they declare that they want to stop cooperating - and this is a huge blow to the distillery.

Of course, this situation is not impossible to deal with, as long as you grit your teeth for a while, you can get through. But how can the other party's means be the only one?

A variety of other means are coming in secret. (To be continued......)
