Chapter 300 The First Barrel of Wine
Watching Miles take out a small dried fish from a small jar on the coffee table and feed it to the Independence Day, he patted the bastard dotingly and praised a few words. Little models are not so pampered, so Ju An lifted the luggage in his hand: "I'll go up and put the luggage down first, and I'll talk to you later, where is my room?".

Mike said: "It's better to go up to the last room by yourself."

Ju An took the luggage upstairs to his room and put it away, then turned around and went downstairs, Miles and the others were drinking beer and chatting on the sofa, Ju An took a bottle of beer from the refrigerator, unscrewed the lid Throwing the lid into the trash can, he sat down on the empty space next to Miles, took a few sips of Dawang Ba Independence Day, and began to crawl on his legs, trying to stay away from Juan.

After watching it, Miles joked to Ju An with a smile: "Independence Day doesn't seem to like you very much. I'm not afraid at all when I see Van and Nien. When I see you always crawl away, you're not a person. nice guy".

He took a sip of beer: "Don't worry about whether I'm a good person or not, can I see the brewer tomorrow."Ju An doesn't even look at the big bastard. We Chinese people have nothing to do to keep a bastard as a pet. Everyone has a dog or something. They became parents. Didn't Ju An and Dinah also become Teddy couples? What a big mom and dad, how troublesome it is to raise this thing, glanced at Miles, Ju An suddenly burst out laughing, remembering that Miles is now a bastard's father, and after getting married, his wife is a bastard's mother , wouldn't you be a bastard after giving birth to a child? As soon as this thought came up, I couldn't help but burst into tears.

The people next to the laughing ones were stunned, and Wang Fan asked, "What are you thinking about being so happy!".

Ju An then said: "I think of it, now Miles is the bastard's father, that's why he's so happy."

Wang Fan laughed when he heard that he had just taken a sip of beer and almost spit it out.The three of them, Miles and Nien Mike, kept asking why?why?. They didn't understand why it was so funny that Miles became a pet father. Isn't this a normal thing?

Wang Fan explained for a long time, but the three old beauties didn't think there was anything funny about it. There was really no way for Juan to say that it was cultural differences, so they exposed the matter.

The five chatted for a while, then Wang Fan said to Ju An: "It's getting late, An Zi, you go cook, and this glorious task organization will be handed over to you."

Ju An glanced around: "Everyone knows how to make steak, if there is any trouble, just order and eat."

Mike smiled and said, "Everyone is going to have Chinese food tonight, and Fan recommends you to cook."

"Chinese food? There aren't any ingredients here. What kind of Chinese food are you eating? Let's just get some steak and deal with it," Ju An said, waving his hands.

Myers said, "Don't worry, all the food is available. Anyone who took everyone to the Chinese supermarket to buy it is in the refrigerator in the kitchen."

Depend on!Feelings came well prepared, so Ju An had no choice but to stand up from the sofa, walked into the kitchen and opened the freezer on the top to see that it was full, including all kinds of chicken nuggets and carp. There was still this plastic bag on the operating table, and the salt, monosodium glutamate, and dried chili inside were all unopened. It was clear that a few guys had premeditated, so they had to roll up their sleeves and start making dinner.

Busy for more than half an hour, spicy chicken nuggets, braised carp, braised eggplant, celery shredded pork, hot and sour potato shreds, plus a large plate of beef diced green bean fried rice. full of praise.However, when eating fish, the belly basically went into the mouths of the three foreigners, and the back and fish head fell into the bowls of Ju An and Wang Fan. A table of dishes was enough for everyone to eat. After eating, the four sat down. Played poker at the edge of the table, of course with a little lottery, it can be regarded as a small gamble for fun, Ju An is not very good at this, sat on the edge and watched four people play until almost twelve o'clock at night, a few The talents went back to their rooms to rest.

In the early morning of the next day, a few people headed towards the vineyard with their luggage. After the official handover of the vineyard today, the owners of Ju’an were going to spend the night in the vineyard. Myers and the others had asked to remove the sheets and everything in the house yesterday. Replaced everything with new ones and cleaned the house well.

I bought a newspaper on the road, Mike glanced at it and handed the newspaper to Ju An. A photo of a middle-aged man in a suit and leather shoes, and then the whole article is a burst of praise for the old man, why this new variety will surpass Cabernet Sauvignon next year, it is expected that new grapes will be full of California vineyards in a few years.

After reading the article, Ju An threw it on the seat: "What does it have to do with us, next year will be Cabernet Sauvignon."

After passing through the lush vineyards, Mike sighed as soon as he got out of the car at the door of the house: "It's a pity, such a good vine will be cut off."

Ju An and Wang Fan didn't care. When they entered the house, the old man was not there, only the old man's lawyer was present, and there was nothing to explain. The grapes in the garden have been harvested, and the old man's lawyer will come over to supervise the cutting of vines in a few days. Now it is the end of the grape harvest season, and the manpower is not easy to hire. Nien tried to delay it for a few days, but the old man's lawyer couldn't help Let go, and firmly insisted that within five days, Ju An really didn't know what to say after hearing it, what's the matter with the mud horse.

He said to Mike: "Don't wait a few days. If you can find someone today, if you don't have enough people, then pay more. If you can find someone, you can cut them off today. I'm upset!".

After hearing this, Miles smiled and said, "Let's have a look tomorrow. Now that the grapes are being harvested, the manpower is troublesome. A [-]-hectare vineyard requires a lot of manpower."

After hearing this, Ju An said to Miles: "Then you arrange it, and quickly finish pulling them out and let them go."

"Okay, don't be angry, the old man's thinking is normal," Wang Fan said with a smile.

After hearing this, Ju An smiled and didn’t say a word. He felt as if he had eaten a fly. My buddies have said that they want to plant Cabernet Sauvignon at most. Don’t worry about it. Come and have a look next year, you’ll know. You have to chop grapes in five days. Ma's is catching up with the end of the harvest season, and he obviously wants to disgust his buddies, but buddies want to see how the grape seeds that have been watered with diluted space water for two months will grow next year.If you don't want to be low-key, we will directly remove the vines in the space and tell you what is called a good grape.

After being sullen for a while, according to the agreed time, the new winemaker drove over. Ju An thought that the assistant of the winemaker should be younger, maybe in his 30s, but who knew it was a 40-something when we met? middle-aged people.

Mike greeted him with a smile and shook hands with him: "Welcome, Burnster, these are some of my friends."Then he started to introduce Bernster one by one.

After exchanging greetings with Burnster, several people took Burnster to look at the vineyard. Burnster also knew something about the situation of the vineyard, after all, they were all in the wine circle.

After looking around, Bernster said to several shareholders of Ju'an: "I hope to have greater rights, such as grape varieties and hiring managers. I hope to get your support in this regard."

After hearing this, Ju An glanced at Mike and Wang Van Miles, and nodded slightly when he saw several people, and said to Bernst: "You can decide the vineyard, and we will hand over all winemaking management to you." You, we do not interfere with the normal management of wineries and vineyards, we only care about the quality of wine, I hope you understand this, we don’t want to buy wine from a vineyard that no one will drink.”

After hearing this, Bernst nodded with a smile: "This request is very reasonable. I will try my best to produce first-class wine, but I hope to plant some Cabernet Sauvignon and some Malbec and Merlot in grape planting." .

After hearing this, Mike said: "The planning of the vineyard is also entrusted to you, and the few of us will not interfere with the production of the winery at all."

"Then I don't have any problem." Burnst shrugged his shoulders and joked, "It's not easy to find a boss who you put so much power on."

"Then, let's have a good cooperation." After hearing this, Ju An stretched out his hand and shook hands with Bernster, and Wang Fan and the others also walked up to shake hands one by one, so that the new winemaker in the vineyard would It's settled.

Miles and Mike were busy calling to recruit staff throughout the afternoon. Fortunately, they had been in California before. After all, the family also had a vineyard. It took a little extra money to get them together. The next morning He began to cut down the vines in the field.

Just because the vines were cut, it doesn’t mean that there is nothing to do in the winery. Burnster arrived at the winery the next day and accepted the management of the winery. They hired several new coopers, and the small workshop for making barrels became busy, starting to repair and manufacture oak barrels.

The coopers saw Ju An and the others walking over, and said to Ju An and the others, "Hello, bosses."The old man with a barrel who I saw last time said happily: "Finally, a large amount of new wine has started to be brewed, and the winery has begun to return to normal. It has been three years, and I have never been so happy."

Myers said with a smile: "It will be normal every year in the future, don't be afraid that there will be nothing for you to do in the future."

The old man said happily: "It's good if there is something to do, and the winery should be like this. I hope we can have the best wine this year."

After chatting with the old man for a few words, Ju An and the others went to the juicing workshop, watching the workers put boxes of picked grapes into the juicer, and the thick dark red grape juice flowed out. I dipped it in the barrel and put it in my mouth, it was slightly astringent and slightly bitter.

"Why is it a bit bitter and sour after tasting it?" Ju An asked.

Miles explained with a smile: "The grapes for wine making are all like this, and the taste is not much different from that of Cabernet Sauvignon. This year's wine must be good."

After hearing this, Ju An didn't ask any questions. A few people walked around the winery, and the whole winery got busy, welcoming the first barrel of wine this year.
