Hunt's housekeeper's intention is very simple, anyway, the red wine estate only costs about 100,000 pounds a year, which is completely a drop in the bucket for Arthur, who is already worth hundreds of millions.

Even if the wineries produced in recent years have not been able to dominate the European market, they have been able to survive on the Australian market.

Especially in the current chaotic situation in Europe, once a war breaks out in European countries, or some unexpected situation occurs, resulting in a decrease in the production of European wineries, it is the time for Arthur's wineries to seize the market.

No matter how bad it is, by taking the low-end red wine, it can also occupy the market in Australia and even Southeast Asia and East Asia to achieve the purpose of profit.

After all, Europe is now the brightest pearl in the world, and Westernized things are very popular with people from other regions, not to mention wine that is widely sought after by European aristocrats.

This is the comparison psychology of ordinary people, thinking that things abroad are always better than those at home.

"Hmm." Arthur nodded, agreeing with Steward Hunter's opinion.

"Your Highness, our winery consists of squares, showrooms, wineries, vineyards, storage areas and underground cellars, with an estimated maximum production of more than 4,400 tons per year, and a maximum of more than 39,000 barrels per year. If it is packaged in wine bottles, then more than six million bottles can be produced. Butler Hunt explained to Arthur with a smile.

Barrel is one of the more common types of wine barrel packaging in the UK. In the UK, even the lower end of the wine can cost several pounds per barrel, and a slightly more expensive one is already more than ten pounds.

Even if Arthur's winery produces a barrel of red wine that costs only five pounds, it can barely break even.

If you look at the bottle sales method, the profit is even greater. Most bottled wines are high-end and therefore more expensive than cask wines of the same size.

Normally, a barrel of wine sells for ten pounds, but if it is broken into hundreds of 750ml bottles, each bottle can be sold for more than three shillings, and the price of the same volume of wine is more than doubled.

For now, the winery's maximum production is more than enough to meet Australia's consumption, at least until Australia's per capita annual income grows at a high level, Arthur's winery can stock up on a large amount of red wine every year.

"Uncle Hunter, when will we be able to drink wine?" Patricia couldn't wait to ask.

Steward Hunt looked at Patricia and Margaery, who were looking forward to it, and said with a smile: "The grapes will have to ripen until August, and with the time of winemaking, I'm afraid the two little highnesses will not be able to drink the red wine produced by our new winery until at least the end of September." ”

Hearing Hunt's stewardship's words, Patricia and Margaery couldn't help but be disappointed, feeling dissatisfied with the time they had to wait.

"Well, aren't there a lot of red wines brought from England? That's enough wine for you until October. Lord Louis looked at his two daughters angrily and said with a smile.

In fact, Patricia and Margaery wanted to drink new wines, they were just curious about new wines.

The red wines that Arthur brought back from England were all high-end red wines produced at Duke Arthur's winery, and the total number was about 1,000 bottles.

In addition, the royal family only has Lord Louis and two sisters besides Arthur, so the consumption of wine is actually very small, and there are still more than 900 bottles after drinking it for several months.

"Oh!" Seeing that their mother began to lecture them, Margaery and Patricia hurriedly hid behind Arthur and reluctantly replied.

"Let's go and visit the winery." Arthur rescued his two sisters in time and said with a smile.

Hearing Arthur say this, Margaery and Patricia hurriedly returned to their mother and began to tour the entire manor.

It has to be said that the geographical environment of the whole winery is very superior, sitting on the mountain and looking at the water, and the back of the winery is a hill, which is more sunny and sunny, which is more suitable for the growth of grapevines.

In front of the winery there is a clear river that runs through the square in front of the winery. The river is crystal clear, and schools of fish can occasionally be seen swimming by.

Such a superior geographical environment, not to mention building a winery, even if it is to build a holiday estate, it is very suitable.

Although it was already summer, the cool breeze and the sound of the stream in his ears made Arthur a little lingering.

"Your Highness, I have built a small estate on the winery, close to our fruit tree growing area, with a stream in front of it. Seeing that it is already summer, although the government building is very spacious, it is very hot. In my opinion, Your Highness, you can come to the manor for the time being, firstly, to escape the summer heat, and secondly, to make the two little Highnesses not so boring. Butler Hunt suggested.

When choosing a location for the winery, Hunter Steward noticed the excellent geographical environment.

With the mountain on its back and a small basin behind it, surrounded by mountains on three sides and water on one side, it is the perfect address for a holiday estate.

Therefore, the butler of Hunt took it upon himself to plan out the best plot of land within the winery and build a small estate for Arthur and the royal family.

Although the area of the manor is not large, the location and natural environment are definitely excellent, and it is a good place to escape the heat in summer.

Seeing that the eyes of the two sisters were a little moved, Arthur smiled and said, "Has the manor been successfully built?" ”

"Of course, Your Highness." Steward Hunter nodded and said, "The manor was built together with the winery, and the manor has now been completed, so you only need to move in the furniture and move in." ”

"Let's go, let's take a look." Arthur was also interested, and said with a smile.

In Europe's major monarchies, the royal family has its own private estate. Even some royal families with relatively large rights often own multiple or even more than a dozen private estates.

The purpose of these estates was to give the royal family temporary residence, tourism and rest when it was not comfortable to live in the palace.

Take the British royal family as an example, Queen Victoria owns countless estates, among which the more famous ones include Balmoral Castle, Buckingham Palace, Windsor Castle, Holyroodhouse Palace, Clarence Palace, Kensington Palace, St. James's Palace, Hampton Court Palace, Sandringham Manor and other luxury estates, and even the annual vacation is difficult to choose.

But so far, the Australian royal family has only one residence, the national affairs building, which is very shabby and leaky, which is why Hunt, as the royal housekeeper, built a manor here.
