Chapter 203: The Gambling Contract
PS: Today's last request for subscription support!
In fact, the easiest way to get Smith to agree to a new one is to take the first generation of grapes that have been affected by time travel and plant them. The growth rate of the breed is far beyond the normal breed, even if it cannot change the decision of the other party, it is enough to explain some problems.
But the problem is, it's too glamorous. You think, March has just entered the stage of loosening the soil, and the grape seedlings have not even begun to grow after a winter, and Li Anran's winery is good, only half a month of effort, it can grow to the extent that people can grow in two or three months, and it is strange that it does not attract attention in a wine producing area like Napa.
Not to mention that after a month, this first-generation time-travel grape variety can enter the flowering and fruiting period, and in another month or so, it will enter the ripening period, not to mention the ripening grape varieties, this speed alone is enough to make Li Anran's winery the focus of attention in the industry.
Don't look at the wine region of Napa, it looks peaceful and quiet on weekdays. But in fact, in order to make their own wine more sold, more popular, and more famous, the entire wine industry is still full of open and secret battles, and deceit.
It is precisely because of this that Li Anran did not take out the first-generation grape seedlings affected by time and space, but wasted a lot of effort in Datang time and space, cultivating a batch of third-generation products whose growth rate and quality far exceed the original goods, but not too exaggerated, and then took them to the winery for replacement.
To Lee's surprise, Smith insisted on not replacing the grape varieties originally planted in the winery during this time period. Although it is a good intention, after all, he is the boss. Under normal circumstances, the boss has already said that he will not investigate the relevant consequences, so his subordinates should naturally implement the matter.
And in the face of the objections raised by the other party several times, he did not make even the slightest injustice and suppression to this professional who is indeed considering the winery. In Li Anran's opinion, it is already rare to be able to do what you do, it is said that you are a subordinate, even if you are not grateful to Dade, you will not be stupid enough to resist.
But this Smith is good, and he still doesn't get enough attention to his advice. And a certain family still insists on the layman's behavior that is enough to bring a devastating blow to the winery. was silent for a while, and then in front of several people in the car, he made a dumbfounded request.
"Boss, as a person who has worked hard in the wine industry for so many years. I really can't accept this kind of joke about the future of the winery. Since you can't take my advice. Then allow me to resign! Ignoring the eyes of the colleague who was driving the car. Smith said firmly.
"Resign?" Li Anran, who didn't expect things to come to this point, looked at Li Anran, who didn't look like he was joking with himself, no matter how he looked at the other party, and deliberately looked at the time. After making sure that today was not April Fool's Day, he asked puzzledly, "Smith, is it because I don't accept your suggestion that you want to resign?" ”
"Yes, Boss." Smith said, nodding.
In fact, for Smith, how could he not know that Lu Dao's own boss, who came from the mysterious ancient oriental country, was very bold. This can be seen from the fact that after the other party took over the winery, not only did no one be fired, but everyone also increased their salaries by 10 to 30 percent according to their positions.
What's more, in addition to the fact that this owner prefers to drink wine and take wine as gifts, so that the wine in the cellar is consumed a lot in a short period of time, he will not interfere in the operation of the winery at all on weekdays, and he does not know anything about pretending to understand at all. For a professional like Smith, this is even more important than giving himself a raise.
But I never expected that this kind of behavior of not interfering in the operation of the winery did not persist for even a year. And, to Smith's annoyance, this is not a good time to change the seedlings. Not to mention, although the procedures for these grape seedlings are complete, they still belong to the "unknown origin" varieties when it comes to investigation.
If it were someone else, it would not matter whether these grape seedlings would affect the winery's business. Anyway, the owner of the winery is Li Anran, and he also said that he would not be held accountable for this incident, and if something went wrong, he couldn't blame himself. Moreover, the most important thing is that there is still a lot of wine in the cellar, and even if you lose it for a whole year, it will not break your muscles and bones.
But for Smith, who has struggled in the wine industry all his life, this kind of behavior is completely irresponsible. As soon as he thought that he would have to work under this kind of boss in the future, and use domestic adjectives in terms of personality, Smith, who belonged to the temper of a donkey, retreated, intending to be out of sight.
Of course, this kind of behavior is not because he wants to flash people quickly to avoid getting into trouble because he is afraid of taking responsibility, but it is a kind of winery that is almost sad than dead, and he does not want to see the winery that he has been fighting for for a long time, just because someone's layman behavior is ruined, and he is completely forced to helpless.
After being stunned, Li Anran, who came back to his senses, recalled the impression he had of the person in front of him, and what the previous winery owner specially told him, it was not that he couldn't feel the other party's true thoughts. It's just that I really can't tell the origin of my new variety of grape seedlings. Thinking of this, I can't help but regret my arrangement this time.
"Smith, I hope you don't resign because of a disagreement at work. As you should know, I'm not the type of person who likes to meddle in winery operations. The reason for this arrangement this time is naturally my plan. It's just that I can't explain this intention for the time being, and I hope you can give me enough trust instead of a letter of resignation. ”
After saying this, Li Anran didn't have any aggrieved thoughts. Even as a boss, it is inevitable that you will feel uncomfortable with the fact that an employee has taken the initiative to resign, but it is really difficult to lose your temper because of the fact that the other person is doing it out of kindness to the winery.
"Boss, I know you're not one of those who likes to meddle in winery operations, otherwise, you wouldn't have had to wait until today. But I really can't figure out why you're doing this. Even if you want to test a new variety, you can plant it on a small scale first, and after confirming the situation in all aspects, it is not too late to replace it on a large scale. ”
After getting along for so long, Smith also knows very well that the boss in front of him is not only bold, but also a character who likes to enjoy life and does not like to care about business. But for the career that he is about to dedicate his life, he still can't tolerate such a devastating blow.
"Well, since you are so persistent, then the replacement of the vines can be put on hold for now. I have one request, though. Seeing that Li Anran, who was forced to continue to be forced to lose the best talent in front of him, had to take a step back. However, he didn't intend to let the other party go.
"Okay, Boss, as long as you don't joke about the future of the winery, we'll discuss the rest." Seeing that his persistence had finally paid off, Smith's originally serious face suddenly showed a look of joy.
"My request is very simple, isn't there already 10 percent of the vines that have been replaced this time, so let's change so many first, and leave the rest as they are. But if the seedlings I get are better than the varieties grown in the winery in every way, then I hope you will agree to work at my other winery for two years! Li Anran, who was worried about the lack of manpower, began to dig a tunnel.
"No problem, but I hope that if the seedlings are not as good as you say Boss, then the 20% that will be replaced will need to be replanted with the varieties I purchased, and I hope that Boss will not do this kind of behavior that will affect the development of the winery in the future." I didn't know that I was about to, no, it should have been Smith who had fallen into the pit, and said.
"No problem, just take it as a bet, OK?" Seeing that the prey had fallen into the pit, Li Anran, who was sure to win and not lose, stretched out his right hand with a smile and said.
“OK!” Smith, who thought he could finally save the winery, also stretched out his right hand and said. (To be continued......)
