Fairy Gourd Farm

Chapter 1611
Zhao Lei stopped in his tracks and asked in surprise, "What did you say?"

Leonardo calmly repeated: "I'm resigning."

Even Charlie Landy asked Leonardo in surprise: "Didn't Mr. Zhao promise not to fire anyone? Why did you resign?"

Zhao Lei also smiled and said: "Yes, I promise everyone that no matter how the winery's business is, as long as everyone works hard, I will never dismiss any employee, and the salary will at least maintain the original standard!"

These words made all the workers look happy, and they all felt that this new boss was better than Charlie Randy, and they must work hard under him in the future.

However, Leonardo still did not change his mind, he shook his head lightly and said, "I didn't resign for this."

Just now Zhao Lei also heard that Leonardo was willing to share his severance pay with his colleagues, and he admired his character.And others have said that Leonardo is also a famous winemaker in Australia.Of course, Zhao Lei is not willing to let go of a talent with such character and real ability.

Seeing that Leonardo insisted on resigning, Zhao Lei also kindly said to him: "Your name is Leonardo, Mr. Leonardo, can you tell me the reason for resigning?"

Leonardo was not hypocritical, and simply replied: "I resigned because I want to make wine."

Zhao Lei smiled and said, "You can still make wine if you stay in the winery."

"It's not the same." Leonardo shook his head and said, "The situation in the vineyard is very bad now. Even if you can find out the reason and fix it within half a year, you will have to wait until next year to plant new vines. Grape vines will take at least two years. In this way, I can’t make wine for at least three years, plus the two years that have been wasted, I can’t make wine for a full five years, and the craftsmanship will definitely become rusty, which is absolutely impossible!”

Leonardo's words made Charlie Randy look bad. Didn't he just tell Zhao Lei how bad the winery's situation was? If he changed his mind and decided not to buy the winery, it would be a disaster.

Seeing that Leonardo also understands the principle of "keep your fists in your hands and your tunes in your mouth", Zhao Lei had a better impression of this foreigner, and said to him with a smile: "Mr. Leonardo, I'm going to sign a contract with Mr. Randy now." The contract, I will talk about your resignation when I come back, three days, you can wait for me for three days at most, how about it?"

Leonardo has a good temper. He thought that he had waited so long anyway, and he didn't care about the three days, so he readily agreed.

After the two left the winery, Charlie Landy said to Zhao Lei seriously: "Mr. Zhao, if you still want to continue to open the winery, you must try your best to keep Leonardo. He is one of the best winemakers in Australia. , the level in this aspect is very high, it would be a pity to miss such a talent."

In fact, Zhao Lei is quite sure to keep Leonardo. After all, he just wants to continue making wine. As long as the winery's grapes can bear fruit this year, Leonardo doesn't have to resign.

Perhaps for others, it is a fantasy to do this, but for Zhao Lei who has Zijin gourd in hand, it is just a matter of effort.

The reason why Zhao Lei didn't speak out to Leonardo just now was entirely because Charlie Randy was by his side.If it makes him feel that the winery can easily be revived, he may have to wrestle with the price again.

Seeing that Charlie Randy was speaking sincerely, Zhao Lei also told him seriously: "I know, talk to Leonardo after I get back, and try to keep him here."

Charlie Landy hesitated for a moment, but decided to tell the truth to Zhao Lei: "In fact, Leonardo doesn't care much about money, but he is very persistent in making wine. He only wants to make the best red wine in Australia and even in the world. He also took a fancy to the conditions of Landy Winery, and felt that the best red wine could be produced here, so he was willing to work here."

Zhao Lei frowned and said, "Mr. Randy, what do you mean by this?"

Charlie Randy made up his mind and said: "If you don't mind, I suggest that you can continue to pay Leonardo, and at the same time allow other wineries in his town to help. This way Leonardo has the opportunity to make wine, and you It’s a joy to be able to retain talents.”

Although this idea meant that Zhao Lei had to pay Leonardo his salary for nothing, it was the only feasible way he could think of right now.

Zhao Lei also knew that what Charlie Randy said was really for the sake of the winery, so he nodded with satisfaction and said, "This is indeed a good idea, and I will discuss it with Leonardo later. By the way, regarding the price of the winery... ..."

Charlie Landy thought that Zhao Lei wanted to lower the price again, so he couldn't help saying in surprise, "Didn't we agree, 450 million Australian dollars..."

"Don't be nervous." Zhao Lei said lightly, "For the sake of your sincerity, I decided to raise the price to 470 million."

Zhao Lei raised the price by 20 Australian dollars as soon as he opened his mouth, which is almost 100 million yuan, which can only show one thing-he is really rich and powerful now, and he has completely ignored this little money.

And for Charlie Randy, this is of course good news, and he smiled gratefully: "This is really great, thank you, Mr. Zhao. By the way...Randy Winery also has a member status of the Australian Wine Association, After the transaction is completed, I will transfer it to you together."

Of course Zhao Lei agreed immediately, and nodded secretly in his heart. Kindness really pays off. If he hadn't taken the initiative to increase the price, Charlie Landy would definitely not have taken the initiative to mention the membership of the Wine Association.If Zhao Lei does it by himself, there will inevitably be a lot of trouble.

The two soon came to the town of Warwick, where there was a notary public recognized by the government.Under the witness of the staff, the two signed the transfer agreement of the winery, and then went to the city hall next door to complete the transfer procedures.

After paying hundreds of thousands of Australian dollars in transfer tax, Zhao Lei became the new owner of Landy Winery.At the same time of the transfer, Zhao Lei also changed the name of Landy Winery to Xianhu Winery.

Only then did Charlie Landy know that his winery had been bought by a world-renowned industrial company.No wonder Zhao Lei was so generous. He promised the workers that he would never fire them for at least five years.

But this has nothing to do with Charlie Randy, anyway, he already has a huge sum of 470 million Australian dollars in his bank account.Even if the loan owed to the bank is repaid, there will be more than 300 million Australian dollars left, which is enough to live the rest of my life in style.

Charlie Landy, who got the money, was in a good mood, and smiled at Zhao Lei, "Let's hurry up and go to Brisbane, and transfer the membership of the Red Wine Association to you."

Of course, Zhao Lei would not object. On the next morning, the two came to the office of the Australian Wine Association in Brisbane.

Just as Zhao Lei walked into the office with Charlie Randy, he heard a strange voice: "Hey, isn't this Charlie Randy? Isn't Randy Winery closed yet?"
