If you really want to be polite, it's actually a bit of a show off.
He changed the subject, "Master Lu, I wonder how much wine the prince plans to order this time?"
Lu Lin said: "Actually, wine needs to be stored for a long time to gain more flavor. However, His Royal Highness knows that you are impatient, so he plans to send two thousand kilograms out first to give some people a taste. If they are all satisfied, then this wine
There is no need to pursue cellaring time. When the time comes, he will select the best ones and sell them to the palace to make royal wine, and the rest will be sold throughout Dayu. But... I don’t know if you can keep up.
."
Send two thousand kilograms out first?
Are they the dignitaries in Kyoto?
Lu Fang thought to himself that Liang Dong was quite reliable in his work.
If you deliver it directly to the palace, it will inevitably make people think that you are relying on the relationship with Prince Rong's palace. But in this way, you can win over many customers first.
Those high-ranking officials and dignitaries praised each other one after another, but the people below should not follow suit?
It is only natural that he should then be sent to the palace to make royal wine.
He seemed to be able to see the popularity of this new type of liquor in Dayu, where it would be "hard to find it".
It seems that I have to continue to expand the winery here.
Some ideas came to mind.
As the winery expands, it is no longer suitable to be located in the county town, right?
The house I purchased before was probably in vain.
Lu Liang planned to create such a big battle from the beginning, which he did not expect.
But whatever, it didn’t cost much anyway.
After thinking about it, Lu Fang said: "I will try my best."
The territory of a winery is easy to expand, as long as you have money. The problem is the winemaker. Either the old man will bring in new people, or he has to recruit from other places.
There are only so many old winemakers in Ningyuan County, and they have long been divided up by the major wineries.
If it doesn't work... we can only poach from other wineries first.
The Wang family’s Guihuafang, the Li family’s Pinglefang, and then Qingpingfang, which was similar to Qingxi Fang.
The Wang family is impatient, but the rest of the wineries will be fine, right?
Not long after, we arrived at the new winery.
Lu Fang took Lu Lin to the door and knocked on the door. It was He Wansu who opened the door.
When he saw Lu Fang, he quickly shouted, "My boss."
Lu Fang smiled and nodded to her.
What greets you is the aroma of wine. Just from this aroma, you can distinguish the new liquor from the drinks on the market in Dayu.
Those drinks cannot have such a pure aroma.
He turned his head and looked at Lu Lin. Sure enough, this guy's eyes were shining. Obviously, he also realized that the new liquor was really extraordinary.
Then he hurriedly walked inside and took a look inside, but he was a little stunned, "Is your wine shop so big?"
As the richest man in Tanzhou, he has seen many wineries many times larger than this one. But... he has never seen many wineries smaller than this one.
Lu Fang chuckled and said: "This is just one of the places. This place is mainly used for storage."
As for the distillation and blending process, he obviously did not intend to tell Lu Lin.
While talking, he just led Lu Lin towards the distillation area.
He Wansu took the initiative to make tea.
Lu Lin looked at He Wansu's graceful back and asked in a low voice with a gossipy face, "Brother, is this woman also you..."
Lu Fang didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and said: "This is not true."
Lu Lin raised his eyebrows and didn't ask any more questions.
But I was muttering in my heart that this guy is so gorgeous.
Although He Wansu is slightly older, her appearance and figure are quite good!
"My boss."
"My boss..."
Every worker who knew Lu Fang greeted Lu Fang with gratitude in their eyes.
Lu Fang didn't have any airs and smiled and nodded in return.
"What is this?"
When he arrived at the distillation area and looked at the big pot-like still placed under the pergola, Lu Lin asked.
Lu Fang said: "It's just something to get wine."
Lu Lin looked at him, nodded, and stopped asking.
He is also a very thoughtful person, so it is natural to see that Lu Fang is unwilling to elaborate. In other words, this thing may be the key to the new type of liquor.
But what does that have to do with him?
Does he dare to steal Lu Fang's business?
No matter how good the prospects of the new liquor are, at least he doesn't dare to do it now.
"Master."
At this time, He Zhigao ran over.
Lu Fang did not intend to take Lu Lin to see the blending area again, so he stopped where he was and introduced: "This is Mr. Lu from Tanzhou, and I am from the same family."
"Master Lu."
He Zhigao looked at Lu Lin and shouted.
It's quite indifferent.
But it was obviously because he didn’t know Lu Lin’s background. If he had known Lu Lin’s background, he wouldn’t be like this.
The young master of the richest family in Tanzhou!
Lu Fang chuckled and said to Lu Lin: "This is He Zhigao, the manager of my wine shop. Mr. Lu, if you come to pick up wine in the future, you can just go to him directly."
"Well, okay."
Lu Lin only smiled and nodded.
This made Lu Fang a little surprised.
Could it be that even this fat man knew that Lu Liang was going to be transferred to You County?
It seems that the relationship between this fat man and Liang Dong is not simple!
But naturally he wouldn't show this surprise on his face.
He just said: "Then let's talk in the room?"
Lu Lin and He Zhigao both nodded.
The three of them walked towards the main hall outside the courtyard.
He Wansu has already made tea there.
The three of them sat down separately. Lu Fangfang said to He Zhigao: "His Royal Highness plans to order two thousand kilograms of wine first. You can have someone prepare it."
Then he looked at Lu Lin and said, "When will you come to get it?"
Lu Lin said: "Since you are ready, brother, I will arrange for someone to come and pick it up tomorrow!"
"good."
Lu Fang nodded lightly, "Just ask someone to find Zhigao."
"Master."
He Zhigao was a little stunned.
He didn't expect that Lu Fang would even leave the shipment to him.
Lu Fang just waved his hand and said: "I may have to leave Ningyuan soon, so I will leave the wine shop to you."
Until now, he had told Chen Youxi, Zhu'er and Fu'er about Lu Liang's transfer.
He Zhigao wanted to ask again, but looked at Lu Lin and opened his mouth, but in the end no sound came out.
"hehe."
Lu Lin smiled and said: "Shopkeeper He, this wine shop needs to be expanded! Otherwise, it will not be able to meet the needs of His Royal Highness."
He Zhigao looked at Lu Fang blankly.
This has just expanded, is it going to expand again?
Lu Fang looked at Lu Lin and said, "Master Lu, do you think our annual output of this wine is enough?"
Lu Lin said: "I can't say for sure at the moment, but if I really wait to become the imperial wine in the future, I will definitely be able to produce one million catties per year."
"Ouch!"
Just as He Zhigao picked up the teacup, his hand trembled violently and the teacup almost fell to the ground. However, the tea in the cup still splashed onto his hand.
He screamed in pain and hurriedly put the teacup on the table.
The back of my hand turned red instantly.
But he didn't realize it, and looked at Lu Lin with wide eyes, "One million...jin?"
This was completely beyond his imagination.
In the past, their He family's Qingxifang only produced 10,000 jins of wine every year, and even most years it was less than this amount.
"It's just an estimate for now, I can't say for sure."
Lu Lin said with a chuckle.
He Zhigao breathed a sigh of relief for no reason.
Immediately afterwards, Lu Lin said: "It may require two or three million kilograms, which means we have a high price for this wine. Otherwise, tens of millions of kilograms is not a problem. As long as you can brew it, you can sell it."
