To be honest, Chen Taizhong is not too dissatisfied with leaving the matchmaking matters to others, because he himself is a foreign liaison officer and handling matters related to French national security. It is indeed inconsistent with his identity.
.
Of course, Director Chen is not a pedantic person. The fact is that he is a little confused about the specific link, so he doesn't pay much attention to it: he hasn't figured out what kind of face he should use to talk to Corsica.
Is the National Liberation Front Negotiator the Director of the European Office of Fenghuang City in Tiannan Province, or is he the identity of a mysterious person?
So, if you hand this job over, hand it over. It’s dirty work anyway, right?
However, Chen Taizhong was a little dissatisfied with Huang Erbo's confident acceptance of this person's information. Because he could be sure that this matter was instigated by others and was not Huang Hanxiang's original intention. With Huang's eyesight, power and character, it was impossible to condescend him to such an extent.
to get involved in this kind of thing.
But he was too lazy to worry about it so much, so he just said directly, "I haven't finally confirmed the identity of this person, and I really can't leave now, so Huang Erbo" "No matter who you give this information to, remember to emphasize that I still
This person’s identity has not been confirmed. If something goes wrong, don’t blame me.”
"Of course." Huang Hanxiang laughed when he heard it. He said to himself that you, the boy, are hard-pressed to part with your good fortune. You are not willing to waste your hard work. I have to forgive you. "Taizhong, people have known about this person for a long time. As long as
But there has never been a suitable contact channel. Now that we have it, we can operate it. "Of course, we can't give it to him in vain."
"It doesn't matter if you let him go for free." Chen Taizhong smiled. He knew that Huang Erbo had contributed to his affairs. He was very grateful. So, what does this little thing mean? He just wanted to let Old Huang know that he was not willing to give in. Then
That's enough. Isn't this a return of favor?
"It's not what you think. I've been told that you can just share more information." Somehow, Huang Hanxiang became angry as he spoke. "You said you kid, if you hadn't made such a big mistake in Lu Hai
,,I didn’t even have time to pee on them.”
"That's okay. You can take it if you want to dig through the door." When Chen Taizhong heard this, Lao Huang was still wiping his own butt and lost his temper. "Then I'll consider this task completed, right?"
"What, they are theirs, and we are ours." Huang Hanxiang laughed there, sounding a bit treacherous, "Our business should be carried out as it should be carried out."
The conversation between the two was somewhat cryptic. There is nothing we can do about it. We are in a foreign country and we are a government agency, so we should have such awareness. Although there are more foreigners in France, it is always right to be more careful.
of.
Relatively speaking, emails that are mainly pictures are not easy to monitor. Paris is really big, and France is even bigger. The so-called surveillance mainly involves monitoring key numbers and keyword searches.
The telephone number of the Office in Europe may have been on the blacklist. Even if it is not on the list, Chen Taizhong's domestic calls may still be searched by some keywords. Of course, there are many languages used in France, and Mandarin is just one of them.
Kind of, so the probability of being monitored is actually not particularly high, but even so, the two of them are not lacking in relevant vigilance. Do you want me to continue? Chen Taizhong is thinking about what this means.
I received a call from Nick, saying he would come over for tea in a while.
He rummaged through the things he had brought with him, choosing over and over again. He chose two sets of Qu Yanghuang, which were considered gifts for Nick. In fact, he had a lot of high-end things in his hands, but they might not like them. Seriously,
This Quyanghuang is considered a specialty, and it is packaged in a stoneware jar, which has a strong Chinese flavor.
During his stay in Paris, Chen Taizhong also got to know the preferences of foreigners, at least here in Paris. Fashionable things are not necessarily the most expensive and best. Specialties with strong regional colors are also good gifts.
If this specialty still has enough history or some allusions, it would be extremely popular.
Jia Ji Quyang Huang has been passed down for more than 100 years and is also famous in Quyang. It is known as Quyang Huang with the purest taste. Of course, foreigners may not be used to drinking it, but just saying that rice wine is one of the earliest alcoholic beverages in the world, then
Will suffice.
Facts have proved that his assumption was correct. When Nick saw these two jars, he felt something special. When he heard about the origin of Qu Yanghuang and knew that the degree of this thing was not high, he couldn't wait to see it.
He changed the afternoon tea to "afternoon wine" on the spot. The two attendants who came with him also had curiosity in their eyes.
Chen Taizhong seemed to be interested. Isn't the main job of the Office in Europe the "bringing in and exporting"? "Nick, do you think there will be a market for this rice wine if it is launched in the UK?"
"If this kind of packaging is used, there will definitely be a market." Nick smiled and pointed to the silly big black jar. The jar was not very good, but there were two neat regular scripts of "Jia Ji" written on the jar. "Of course.
, it must have a brand. "Can I ask how much a bottle like this costs?"
Quyanghuang is sold locally, but it only costs about five yuan a catty. Jia Ji's is a little more expensive, and Sanda is only eight yuan a catty. This two-jin jar of wine is a little more expensive, thirty yuan a jar.
It was okay to talk about the price at first, but when Chen Taizhong thought that he had just given this guy two jars, he was embarrassed to say the price too low, "It's about five pounds in the local area. You have to know that this kind of thing is the most important thing."
The reason is that the output is small, it is green, and it has no pollution.”
"Five cents," Nick whistled, smiled, and his eyes lit up. "That's great, we can sell it for fifty cents."
"Fifty pounds?" Chen Taizhong was not shocked when he heard that. That was more than 700 yuan. "Nick, isn't this profit a bit high?"
"Fifty pounds, that's just the packaging." Nick bent down and pulled the wax-sealed mouth of the jar. Afternoon tea finally turned into afternoon wine, "Now, let's take a look at the contents. It will add points."
Will still lose points
The taste of Quyanghuang is really not what you are talking about. As soon as the congressman took the drink, he expressed his affirmation of the wine. "It tastes a bit weird, but..." This slightly sweet taste is good. Are there any Chinese herbal medicines added to it?
"
"Yellow rice wine, together with wine and beer, is one of the three largest brewed wines in the world, and rice wine is a specialty of China." Chen Taizhong said he couldn't explain any more, "I don't know if it has Chinese herbal medicine added, but according to legend, drinking rice wine is good for the body.
There are benefits.”
"Well, it's a matter of acceptance." Nick nodded. He couldn't stand the herbal smell of Huang La...the second brew, but apart from reading some, the rest was "soft in the mouth and lingering on the lips and teeth, which is especially rare for this kind of wine."
The alcohol content is not high, unlike most Chinese wines, which will make your throat burn after drinking it.
This kind of alcoholic wine is the real noble wine. The so-called cocktail party is after the dinner. Everyone walks around with low-alcohol wine and takes a sip from time to time. It's a sign of dignity, like Mr. Chen usually does.
The act of walking around with a glass of liquor that could be lit - that's something only a St. Petersburg train driver would do.
"It looks like you can get extra points." Chen Taizhong smiled and nodded, but the next moment he realized a problem, "Hey, Nick, five pounds is just the local price. You have to consider shipping costs, tariffs, etc.
.”
"What I have to consider is not just freight and tariffs." Nick rolled his eyes, "I need to make a complete strategy." However, I feel that starting this business from the UK is not the best choice."
"I would like to hear the details." Chen Taizhong raised his hand to him. Of course, there is no such idiom in English. That's what it means.
Nick's idea is very simple. In terms of food culture, the British are the kind of country that can hide their faces and run away. Even though the British Empire once said that the sun never sets, it is really far behind in this regard. Let alone France.
Well, not even Italy can compare.
As for "British wine", it's almost the same. Someone once described that British wine can be used as vinegar. Of course, this is a rhetorical technique called "exaggeration". However, it does reflect it from the side.
The status of British wine.
So Nick believes that if Chen Taizhong wants to build the Quyanghuang brand, he still needs to work hard in France. Yes, the British are at odds with the French, but what is popular in France will definitely affect the UK. If it is not
For French populism, this degree will be doubled.
Therefore, Mr. Congressman's suggestion is that Xiao Chen, you must establish the Quyanghuang brand as soon as possible. Then use this "very stylish" packaging to promote it in France.
If the French, who own several major wineries, can recognize this wine, it will soon take over the world. "Even the Americans will recognize it. Those farmers and sinners are basically nouveau riche. They don't even have an old car."
A small car will be used as a yoke... Talking about its cultural heritage, they still want to learn from Europe."
"Yes, they have Hollywood and a powerful cultural export mechanism, but they have no background." Nick picked up the rice wine in front of him and drank it in one gulp. Obviously, he regarded it as beer. Mr. Congressman is indeed extremely racist.
Yes, this statement is simply British supremacy.
"However, the output of Quyanghuang is not very high." Chen Taizhong saw that he was very interested and was not disappointed. "And it is very scattered. It is not easy to unify."
"Opportunity" This is an opportunity." Nick heard this. He was not angry but happy. He slammed the table and saw in someone's eyes that this was a sign of drinking too much. "The output is not much, that's what it should be, Margaux.
Which one has more output, Chateau Mouton or Chateau Mouton? Good things are not produced in large quantities. As for the scattered ones, "Chen. Don't tell me that you can't solve similar problems."
"Or, can I consider doing some publicity in Italy at the same time?" someone asked cautiously. In fact, he just wanted to take the opportunity to explore the small island in the Mediterranean sandwiched between Italy and France.
Yue Zhang staying power
Nick didn't know what Chen Taizhong was referring to. To him, this Quyanghuang was worthy of manipulation. Not to mention anything else, just this weird jar. And that. "Unique to China, one of the world's three major breweries."
"wine" in the name.
Chen Taizhong said the price of this wine was not high. However, it was because it was not high that Nick became interested in operating it. As the old saying goes, if there is a profit of 300%, some people will risk losing their heads.
If you do it, let alone operate it well, the profit should be more than 300%.
The output of Quyang Huang is small, which is not a problem. If the output is high, the price will not go up. Yes, Nick wants to make this product into a mid-range wine, not one of those mass-market products.
Of course, if this kind of wine can be sold for fifty pounds a jar, it will really become a high-end product.
At the very least, it is a top-notch product among mid-range wines. This may not be realistic. However, Mr. Congressman is always an exaggerated talker. The price he mentioned is nothing more than an indication of how hyped this kind of thing can be.
In any case, Nick is very interested in the business opportunities that suddenly popped up today. Even if he only earns 10 pounds from a bottle of wine. If he sells 50,000 to 60,000 bottles a year, he still earns 50,000 to 600,000 pounds.
"If it can be widely accepted, I hope you can leave the sales in the UK to me." Mr. Congressman is quite optimistic. "Of course, I will sell in limited quantities, up to 100,000 jars per year. If I do more, there will be
Might destroy the sign."
"Well, I can first make use of various connections to serve this wine for free at various cocktail parties." Chen Taizhong nodded, thinking that a hundred thousand jars was only 3 million yuan. "This amount is really not that big.
But if we add other countries, it’s still worth doing, for example, Italy?”
"The French are very arrogant." Nick laughed when he heard this. "They have blind confidence in their own things. It is not easy to get their recognition. The cocktail party is a good breakthrough point.
"
Why didn't you say Italy? Chen Taizhong was a little depressed, so he raised his hand and poured him another glass of wine. "The alcohol content of this wine is very low, you can have some more."
"Okay," Nick nodded with a smile and then suddenly thought, "Do you have fresh lemon juice here? I want to soak two slices. "Sorry, this wine tastes a bit weird." "Tecao?" Chen Taizhong said a little bit
He couldn't accept this unique way of drinking, but since the other party made a request, he didn't mind satisfying it. What he was currently thinking about was: how to drink this guy harder.
There were frozen lemons in the freezer, all cut into slices. He also took out two boxes of mutton skewers, opened the packages and put them in the microwave to grill, "There will be kebabs to eat later."
There is no problem for British people to eat kebabs. What’s especially wonderful is that Nick likes to sprinkle a lot of natural powder on them. After Chen Taizhong asked, he found out that this stuff is also grown in North Africa and the Mediterranean, and many British people like it.
Everybody likes this stuff.
"This mutton is not that good." I can't tell, but Nickin from the UK actually has the potential to be a gourmet. However, the facts show that Quan is just a little picky about the quality of the meat, "I like lamb."
In about an hour, one jar of wine was finished. Three people drank two kilograms of Quyanghuang, which was already very impressive. However, Chen was afraid that the other party had not drank well, so he had to bring out two more jars and said, "Drink that jar too."
Come on, take these two jars with you."
"Will this wine have staying power?" Nick stared at the jar of wine and wondered. He has a good capacity for drinking and is very sober at the moment. Moreover, he has considerable research on wine culture. "Generally speaking, wine with a little sweetness,
There’s always some staying power.”
"Oh, just a little bit, not much." Chen Taizhong shook his head with a smile and opened the jar again. You can slowly feel the aftertaste of the rice wine. "I think we should grill some more Sichuan mutton skewers."
These three people were actually very restrained. The other one only drank less than half of the bottle and stopped drinking. However, this was enough. When they stopped, their heads began to feel a little heavy.
When people drink too much, they all become drunk. Some people are drunk in culture and others are drunk in martial arts. Nick is the one who can do it. However, he is afraid of someone, and he is not drunk. He just talks non-stop.
.
He kept talking? That was obviously a good thing. Chen Taizhong grabbed him and asked, "How about I also launch a pilot project in Italy?"
"Italy, don't you want to learn from France? I don't think it's necessary." Nick spoke loudly. His voice was quite loud, "I hate Italians."
"It seems that you hate everyone except the British." Chen Taizhong couldn't help it anymore and just replied.
Unexpectedly, the guy said carelessly, "British? In fact, I don't like Scotland and Wales either. I'm proud that I'm an Englishman. As for those bastards from Northern Ireland. Hehehe
"I finally understand why there are resistance organizations in Northern Ireland." Chen Taizhong smiled. This was obviously a good topic. "I'm afraid there are too many people like you who engage in discrimination.
"
"Wrong, wrong. I am a very philanthropic person." Nick is now a bit bureaucratic. He is obviously full of discrimination, but he wants to shake his head to show his selflessness. However, unfortunately, under Qu Yanghuang's "little bit"
With the stamina, he said a few words before his true colors were revealed. I said that these people in Northern Ireland are not good, but there is actually a reason.
Chen Taizhong was not interested in hearing about the issue of Northern Ireland's independence. After listening patiently for a few words, he interrupted him without speaking, "This is similar in nature to Corsica. I have also heard of the Corsican National Liberation Front."
The family is called Pierre."
"Pierre Sandoni? Haha" Nick laughed loudly after hearing this, "These rude and lazy Corsicans, I'm very surprised why the famous Napoleon Bonaparte was born here?"
"You actually know him?" Chen Taizhong was extremely surprised. "God, won't this affect the relationship between Britain and France? You know, you are a congressman!"
"Is it weird? I don't think so." Nick shrugged his shoulders coolly, but because he drank too much, the shaking was a little bigger. It looked like he was bitten by an insect on the back. There was nothing cool about it.
Silly.
"We have a problem with Northern Ireland, and they have a problem with Corsica. No one will make an issue out of the other." However, it is very necessary to maintain relative contact, otherwise if there are changes, it will lead to passivity.
, everyone knows this very well,
"So that's it." Chen Taizhong suddenly realized after hearing this. At this point, China is a bit too gentle, courteous and thrifty. Look at these old imperialists, they are confident in contacting the anti-government armed forces. "It seems that I need to follow
Get to know people from the Northern Ireland independence movement."
"This is simply a joke." Nick's face tensed up in an instant, but at the next moment, he thought of something and finally managed to squeeze out a smile, "Chen," this joke is not funny at all."
"I'm just curious. Since you are all doing this, let's forget about Northern Ireland." Chen Taizhong ignored this guy's reaction and said, "Yeah." But, do you know anyone from the National Liberation Front of Corsica? Yes.
identity."
"Pierre's identity is enough. It's just that his position is not very firm." As soon as Nick heard that he wanted to harm France, he immediately relented, "In fact, I can help you contact Colonna." This Colonna is in Colonna.
Siga has a much greater reputation than Pierre, and is especially known for his firm will and ruthless methods. The only way Nick can contact this guy indirectly is because our congressman used to be a gangster.
Or are these people who work within the system better than people who work outside the system? Chen Taizhong sighed with emotion. He knew Anthony well, Pierre, so he was considered good. But Nick could actually evaluate other people's positions. These two
The news channels are simply incomparable.
"Then, please help me contact you now." Director Chen naturally understands the principle of striking while the iron is hot. The Nigerian congressman is drunk and drunk at the moment. It would be foolish not to contact him. Wait until he returns to the UK before contacting him. Then
There might be some changes.
"Ah, isn't it?" Even though Nick had drunk too much, he still had some logical skills. He looked at the other party dumbfounded, "How can I make this call in France?"
"So you are making fun of me?" Chen Taizhong looked at him with a half-smile, "Is that so?"
As soon as he saw this familiar smile. No matter how strong the rice wine was, Congressman Ni also sobered up a lot. The man in front of him was so ruthless that he couldn't help but smile bitterly and said, "Okay, I'll fight. But it may take a little longer."
With this period of sobriety, Nick's words on the phone were more vague, and he guessed correctly. About an hour later, the call from England came, and he was almost asleep by then.
"Look for this guy named Cole." Chen Taizhong recorded the name, looked at the sleepy-eyed Nigerian congressman, and laughed dryly, "Give me the leader of the Northern Ireland independence movement. I must admit that you succeeded.
It aroused my curiosity.”
"I" really don't know, otherwise I will catch him and do meritorious service." Nick looked at him with a grimace, but he was gnashing his teeth in his heart. You kid actually told me that rice wine has no staying power?
It has fallen to the 21st place, and the classification list has also fallen out of the top six. Does anyone still have a monthly ticket? If you want to know what happened next, please log in... There are mountains, more chapters, support the author
