Fairy Gourd Farm

Chapter 1121 Finished Cigar
"I understand." Zhong Jiahong agreed, and then told Zhao Lei that he had sent the rolled cigar to Zhao Lei, and he should receive it soon.

Of course Zhao Lei was very happy, and after a few words of encouragement to Zhong Jiahong, he hung up the phone.

I don't know why, after hearing Zhong Jiahong say that the hands of the girls who smoke cigarettes are all cracked, a slender and bumpy figure appeared in Zhao Lei's mind, and he couldn't help but think of Elisa.

Elisa has Li Qian's cuteness and Zhang Lei's enthusiasm and cheerfulness. Even apart from her appearance and figure, she is still a very cute girl.

Just as Zhao Lei was thinking of Elisa, the phone at hand suddenly rang.Zhao Lei glanced at the caller ID and couldn't help showing a smile. It was a coincidence that this call was from Elisa.

As soon as the phone was connected, Zhao Lei heard Elisa's lively voice: "Zhao Lei, how are you recently?"

"I'm not bad." Zhao Lei said to Elisa with a smile: "How are you? I heard that everyone is busy with curing tobacco leaves and rolling cigarettes recently. It's very hard."

Elisa said with a coquettish tone: "Isn't that right, I've been rolling cigarettes recently, and I'm so tired! And... my fingers are cracked, and every time I touch the tobacco leaves, it hurts so much!"

Zhao Lei frowned and said, "Then wear gloves. I'll call the farm manager and ask him to prepare gloves for you."

"No!" Elisa told Zhao Lei: "Wearing gloves will damage the feel of cigarettes and affect the quality of cigars. Anyway, all the tobacco leaves are almost finished rolling, and it will be fine if you stick to it for a few more days! Anyway, we have been used to it since we were young. it's not a big deal!"

Elisa's optimistic words also infected Zhao Lei. He smiled and said: "You are an expert, listen to you! But no matter how busy you are at work, you should pay attention to rest. By the way, have you gone swimming at the beach recently? Remember to go with your friends go, you know?"

Seeing that Zhao Lei cared about her so much, Elisa was also secretly happy, and quickly assured him: "Don't worry, I will definitely listen to you, and I will do whatever you want me to do!"

These words are very ambiguous, Zhao Lei coughed lightly in embarrassment, and quickly changed the subject: "By the way, you can go to the villa to take a bath after swimming. Anyway, you have the key, so don't be polite to me."

"I see, thank you!" Elisa sweetly agreed, and then said to Zhao Lei mysteriously: "I called to tell you that among the cigars sent this time, I deliberately placed some cigars on my lap. It's for you, don't give it to others!"

Zhao Lei wanted to tell Elisa that he didn't smoke.But Zhao Lei couldn't bear to reject the girl's good intentions, so he smiled and said: "I know, I will definitely pay attention."

"That's great!" Elisa smiled happily, and then hurriedly said to Zhao Lei: "My dad asked me to roll cigarettes, we'll talk when we have time, bye!"

"Goodbye..." Just as Zhao Lei had time to say goodbye, Elisa hung up the phone. It seems that this girl is really busy now.

A few days later, the cigars sent by Zhong Jiahong arrived.

Just as Zhao Lei opened the sealed box where the cigars were stored, he immediately found the cigars that Elisa had specially rolled for him.These cigars are so recognizable that they are individually placed in a small pink box, and each cigar is specially pasted with a small love heart, which at first glance is Elisa’s masterpiece.

Also in the box is a note that reads: These cigars are rolled on my lap, hope you like it - Elisa.

Looking at the contents of the box of cigars and the note, Zhao Lei also couldn't laugh or cry, the girls in Central America are really passionate, it's exactly the same as what they said on TV.But thinking of Elisa's exquisite figure, Zhao Lei couldn't help but feel a little moved.

However, after all, Zhao Lei is also a person who has experienced big storms, so he quickly put this matter behind him and began to get busy with preserving the batch of cigars.

How to store fine cigars is also very particular. It needs to have the right temperature and humidity, and it can’t just be placed anywhere.

For example, for the batch of cigars sent by Zhong Jiahong, there is a special cigar humidor in the airtight box. All the cigars are placed in the humidor, and these cigars can be preserved for several days.

In order to preserve these cigars for a longer period of time, Zhao Lei specially bought a set of cigar storage cabinets.This device maintains the optimum temperature and humidity and is the best choice for preserving cigars.

Of course, in addition to considering how to preserve, it is more important to determine the quality of these cigars.

Although Lopez and the others said that the quality of these cigars was extremely high, they were only tobacco farmers after all, and Zhao Lei needed more authoritative knowledge to identify them.

However, Zhao Lei only knows friends in the gourmet circle, so it is really difficult to find someone to appraise the cigars.After thinking about it again and again, I can only try my luck with Jiang Zili.

Jiang Zili was also very happy to receive Zhao Lei's call, and asked him with a smile: "Xiao Zhao, are you going to launch new ingredients again, do you need me and Lao Li to help you check it?"

Zhao Lei said with a smile: "You guessed wrong this time. Although I plan to launch a new product, this product is not for eating, but for smoking!"

"Smoking?" Jiang Zili thought for a while and asked in surprise: "Could it be cigarettes?"

Zhao Lei smiled and said, "It's absolutely correct, you guessed it right!"

Jiang Zili said worriedly: "Xiao Zhao, you have to think carefully about this. Tobacco manufacturers have always had a bad reputation in the international market. Although the profits of cigarettes are indeed high, it may affect the brand image of Xianhu. Be careful. !"

Zhao Lei smiled and said: "Thank you for your reminder, but the products I launch are not ordinary cigarettes, but high-end cigars. The quantity is only one or two thousand boxes per year. It is completely high-end and will not have much impact on the brand image. .”

Jiang Zili breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It's not a big problem. High-end cigars are quite in line with the brand image of Xianhu, as long as they don't follow the popular route."

Zhao Lei said with a smile: "However, it's hard to say whether high-end cigars can be launched at the moment. I need to find someone who knows how to appraise them, so I'm asking if you can help me."

Jiang Zili shook his head and said: "Although I smoke cigars occasionally, I'm not very proficient in it. I'm afraid I can't help you much. But I know a friend who has a lot of research on cigars. How about I ask him for you?" How about it?"

Zhao Lei rejoiced and said, "That would be great, please!"

Jiang Zili acted quickly, and contacted Zhao Lei the next day, saying that his friend was very interested in this matter and immediately expressed his willingness to help.

So the next day, Zhao Lei hurried to Shanghai with a box of cigars, and finally met Jiang Zili's friend Li Xibin, who is also a master cigar connoisseur, in a club.
