Chapter 1727: Wine Life
Originally according to Ye Yuan’s estimation.

With more than 3000 acres of land, it is necessary to raise at least four-digit cattle and sheep.

This is worthy of the title of ranch, right?

Even though the Kos Ranch is mainly engaged in breeding racehorses.

But it is simply unbelievable if such a large piece of land is not utilized properly.

If in China.

Who dares to play like this? Wouldn’t they be laughed to death by the neighbors around?
Haven’t you seen those families in Pinghai whose yards are less than half an acre of land?

Do I not have to buy vegetables for a whole year?
you could put it that way.

In China, land is really a good thing.

Even a flower bed will be used by the aunties.

Especially some old and dilapidated communities.

The green belt that was supposed to belong to the auntie was planted with various crops.

Of course, this only happens in county towns or fourth- and fifth-tier cities.

After all, it is simply impossible to do this in first-tier cities.

But Ye Yuan lives in Pinghai County.

So he has seen too much of these.

I briefly got to know the people currently on the ranch.

Let them do what they should do.

As the owner of the ranch, I have no plans to change the place for the time being.

Originally, he wanted to implant a chip into Nata and then release her.

Used as the manager here.

But when he checked the points he found out.

I still have a long way to go before I reach 30 points.

This is a bit difficult to handle.

Before I get enough points.

You can't just let this go to waste, can you?

As for Old John?
Ye Yuan didn't even think about it.

An old man in his 60s.

If Witt was really capable, he wouldn't have thought about selling the ranch.

So, this can also be seen from this point.

Old John has deep feelings for the ranch.

But in terms of pasture management.

It's simply not available.

So now the priority.

It is to find someone who can help me manage the ranch.

I feel a headache just thinking about it.

Have I been a hands-off boss for too long?
Now it's time to actually do something.

It feels a bit of a mess.

Alas! It seems that the days of being a salted fish are coming to an end.

Don’t think about these things that give you a headache for now.

Ye Yuan suddenly thought of the gift that Witt gave him before leaving.

I don’t know what kind of wine it is, but that guy just abandoned it in the storage room and didn’t want it anymore.

Ye Yuan didn't hold out much hope.

Finally, in the innermost corner of the wooden house.

Found the storage room that Witt mentioned.

Looking at the rusty lock on the door.

Ye Yuan couldn't help but frown.

I remember it very clearly.

When the ranch was handed over, there were no keys for the old-fashioned locks like this one.

If Witt hadn't forgotten.

This is exactly what Witt said.

Because it has not been used for a long time, even they can’t find the key, right?

Originally, Ye Yuan thought that with his mental power, there was no lock that he could not open.
As a result, I really met him.

This lock has been rusted.

The lock springs inside were all rusted.

Not to mention mental strength.

Just get the real key.

It is also difficult to open this lock.

But this was not a problem for Ye Yuan at all.

Since the formal channels don’t work.

Then he doesn't mind a bit of violent aesthetics.

Isn't it just a rusty padlock?
A fire axe went down.

The wooden door opened in response.

Wow, I wonder if it’s because no one has been in there for a long time.

The moment Ye Yuan pushed open the door.

Not only did the dust fill the entire room.

There was also a stuffy smell coming from the room, as if the air had not been circulated for a long time.

I stood at the door and waited for a while to let the dust inside settle.

It also allows the smell inside to be diluted by the air.

After Ye Yuan no longer smelled the peculiar smell, he walked into the storage room that no one had entered for many years.

My goodness, it’s such a mess in there.

The room was almost filled with miscellaneous items everywhere, as well as some items whose origins Ye Yuan had no idea.

Even Ye Yuan was frightened by the scene inside.

I said no one has come in for so many years.

This place is simply a crowded warehouse.

And the things inside are obviously eliminated.

If it were Ye Yuan, it would be impossible for him to come in here.

For the old Chinese wines that Witt mentioned.

Ye Yuan still chose to clean up this room first.

Originally, Ye Yuan used the space as a cheating method.

It's easy to clean this room.

But Ye Yuan did not choose to use space to clean up these debris.

Instead, he is just like ordinary people.

One by one, the sundries piled up in the storage room were moved to the lawn outside the main house.

The reason for doing this.

It was by doing this that Ye Yuan found the fun of treasure hunting.

Although I know I won’t find anything good here.

But the process was still very happy.

Especially some old items found here from time to time.

You know what, it was nothing decades ago.

It's quite interesting to display it now.

First, clean up some items near the door.

These are all things from after 2000.

As for the types?

That really has everything.

Like, the hard drive on the computer, a tennis racket, a box of leftover Coke, what Ye Yuan didn't expect was...

Among these sundries, I actually found an old DJI drone.

This made Ye Yuan feel like he was back to the time when he and Li Shiyun went to the warehouse to hunt for treasure.

You know what, how familiar we are now with each other now?

It's just that there's one less beautiful woman by my side.

Recovering his thoughts, Ye Yuan continued to tidy up the storage room.

As the items were taken out one by one.

The items inside also date back to the 90s.

You know what, this is exactly as Witt said.

There are really a lot of vintage things in here.

Except for some daily necessities left idle here.

Ye Yuan also found a wooden revolver that looked good.

Although the model is not clear.

But Ye Yuan can be sure of this.

This wooden cannon is no younger than myself.

As Ye Yuan gradually took out the items.

The old wines that Witt had mentioned before also appeared in Ye Yuan's sight.

Three unopened boxes of Moutai.

It was just quietly placed in the corner of the storage room.

Although the box was covered with dust.

Fortunately, the outer packaging is intact.

Although Ye Yuan is not too fond of liquor.

Usually, beer is the main drink.

But he still has some understanding of Moutai.

From this appearance.

This is no ordinary Moutai.

But it is the export-oriented Sunflower Moutai.

Ye Yuan walked over quickly, not caring about the dust on the outer packaging, and tore open the packaging directly.

He took out a bottle and examined it carefully.

Don't think there is no fake wine in Country M.

The first thing Ye Yuan had to do when he saw the sunflower Moutai that appeared here was to determine whether it was real.

First, Ye Yuan checked the bottle cap.

When you look clearly at the red wax on the bottle cap.

I was immediately delighted.

This is the common sense of wine identification that Ye Yuan learned from Zhang Wujin.

Because there was no technology like today.

So the bottle caps are sealed with red wax.

I observed several places before and after to distinguish the authenticity.

Only then could Ye Yuan be sure.

Now this bottle in my hand.

It is the extremely rare small-leaf sunflower that is exported.

There are three main types of sunflower Moutai.

The first one is the big-leaf sunflower.

Its participation was from 1967 to 1968.

The sunflower logo is named because the leaves are relatively large.

This type was only produced for less than a year.

The production is extremely rare.

The main label of Sunflower Leaf is in traditional Chinese characters.

The back label is in Chinese and English.

Chinese is the translation.

This large-leaf sunflower is also a favorite of many wine collectors.

Just because it's so rare.

Even some wine collectors themselves.

I may not even have one or two bottles in my hand.

And the second kind.

It's the small-leaf sunflower.

These are also what Ye Yuan has seen in this storage room.

This small-leaf sunflower was used from 1968 to 1975.

Because the flowers and leaves of sunflower species are relatively small.

Therefore, it is affectionately called small-leaf sunflower.

Small-leaf sunflower compared to large-leaf sunflower.

Not only are the petals small, but the man on the label is also handsome.

It also changed from Traditional Chinese to Simplified Chinese.

The back label is the same as the jungle sunflower.

All are in Chinese and English.

The text on the back label is in traditional Chinese.

This is also a major feature of small-leaf sunflower.

The last type is what many people call the three major sunflowers.

This 'Big Three' was produced in 1978.

What Ye Yuan didn't expect was...

This kind of precious old wine is rarely found even in China.

There are actually three boxes here.

You know, this is not the kind of cardboard box that is in circulation now.

Six bottles per case.

What appears here is the kind that is packaged in wooden boxes.

There are as many as 24 bottles in this wooden box.

In other words, these are your three boxes of sunflowers.

There are about 72 bottles.

And this kind of thing has now been sold at a sky-high price in China.

As far as Ye Yuan knows.

2021, at Sotheby’s summer auction.

A box of sunflowers of the same quality produced in 74.

The auction price for one box reached 903 million RMB.

And now several years have passed.

I believe that 1000 million in a box is not a difficult thing.

And here are three boxes of sunflower wine.

Doesn’t this mean that the price can reach 3000 million yuan?

It only cost him about 1000 MiGold to buy the entire Kos Ranch.

You can get nearly half of your investment back here.

Ye Yuan really wanted to laugh out loud.

Witt, he is really the boy who brings you money.

Not only sell such a good ranch to yourself.

A gift before leaving.

This made Ye Yuan extremely satisfied.

Just don't know.

Wait until Witt finds out one day.

These liquors that I just gave away casually were of no importance to him.

It turns out to have such a high value.

What kind of expression would that be?

Ye Yuan wouldn't believe it.

A lingerie designer would not take such a huge fortune lightly.

Otherwise, he wouldn't be in such a hurry to sell the ranch, right?
Take back your thoughts.

Ye Yuan looked at the remaining things in the storage room again.

In addition to three boxes of small sunflower Moutai.

The rest of the things were no longer worthy of Ye Yuan's attention.

Just when Ye Yuan was about to throw everything away.

I was attracted by the box in the corner.

The box was wrapped in a piece of oil paper.

At first Ye Yuan didn't care.

I thought it was a piece of oil paper left here by the original owner of the ranch.

But when he picked it up casually.

Judge by the weight of the oil paper.

This is not just a piece of oil paper.

Open the wax paper packaging.

What appeared in front of Ye Yuan was actually a box of Zippo lighters from the 70s.

Good guy.

Although these lighters are not as precious as the limited edition in Ye Yuan's hand.

But there are hundreds of brand new 70s ZIPPO lighters with sterling silver casings.

I think the value won’t be low.

If you don't understand, ask Baidu.

Although it may not be very accurate.

But I think the general price should not be very different.

Searched for some relevant information.

Ye Yuan's expression became a little strange.

It is no exaggeration to say that Witt is his money-bringing boy.

Something worth a few million.

Damn it, did I enter the wrong copy?
This isn’t ranch writing at all.

But is it a chapter of treasure hunting?
Come to think of it, I have a very good affinity with wine recently.

First, he obtained thousands of square meters of precious wine collection from the Kester family’s basement.

Now I just bought a ranch.

Three more boxes of Little Sunflower Moutai were found in the storage room.

I really don’t know what kind of luck I have!
Am I born with a connection to wine?

Were you born drinking?

Suddenly Ye Yuan remembered Teacher Dandan’s classic line.

I have had a connection with fire since I was a child. I started playing with fire when I was three or four years old, and I once caused a huge fire at home.

When I was six or seven years old, I accidentally fell into a brazier and there is still a mark on my buttocks.

When I was a teenager, I took a train to Huojiatun.

Through a cook’s introduction, I met Heitu, a man who has been making me angry all my life.

Since Teacher Dandan is born under the element of fire.

So is it that I am destined to drink?

Otherwise, the wine in my own Yuwan Island wine cellar.

Why do you drink more and more?

Ye Yuan thought he had a pretty good alcohol tolerance.

I usually drink some myself.

Not to mention those collectors.

Travel around the world in search of good wine.

But that's it.

Own wine cellar for various reasons.

The number of wine collections is increasing.

If I go back this time.

Take out these old wines in the space.

My own wine cellar is almost full.

The more I want to feel, the more I am destined to drink.

Could it be that he is the legendary son of wine?
Just when Ye Yuan was YYing here.

Suddenly, I heard a woman's voice behind me.

"Boss! Do you need my help?"

A woman's voice suddenly appeared.

Ye Yuan was startled.

Turn around and look.

It turned out to be the only cowgirl on the ranch, Betty.

For being the only female cowboy on her own ranch.

It was difficult for Ye Yuan to forget it.

After all, there are already very few cowgirls.

And there was only one cowgirl left on the Kos Ranch.

How could Ye Yuan not be deeply impressed?

"Is it Betty? I don't have anything to do. I just saw that there was too much garbage in the utility room, so I cleaned it up out of boredom."

When Ye Yuan saw that it was Betty, he spoke naturally in a friendly manner.

He doesn't want to leave a stereotyped impression on his employees.

"Do you need my help? What are you going to do with these garbage?"

Betty blinked her big, lively eyes.

He was obviously very curious about his new boss.

"Uh...if you have time, could you help me throw these things to the garbage station?"

Ye Yuan knew that throwing away garbage was a very tedious task here.

Even some large garbage.

You can't just throw it away.

Fees also need to be paid.

These are also the many people who came from China.

The reason why I was very uncomfortable at the beginning.
