Chapter 1613 Buying Grape Seedlings

Contrary to Charlie Randy's anxious look, Zhao Lei said with a faint smile: "I just can't bear his appearance of being a villain, and I want this guy to bleed. Even if he repents at that time, he will be famous in this circle Sweeping the floor is like teaching him a lesson."

Charlie Randy smiled bitterly and said: "I hate this guy too, but you have no hope of winning this bet. Even if you replant grapes this year, it will not bear fruit until the next year at the earliest. Impossible to have any output!"

Zhao Lei smiled slightly and said: "You don't have to worry about that. Since I dare to bet, I must be sure. Otherwise, you will think that I have burned too much money. If you lose, it will be 1000 million Australian dollars!"

Although Zhao Lei said so, Charlie Landy was still very worried.It stands to reason that the winery has nothing to do with him now, and he can leave at any time, but he couldn't help but ask Zhao Lei, "Then what are you going to do next?"

Since Charlie Landy asked, Zhao Lei said bluntly, "Just tell me where grape seedlings are sold."

As a former winery owner, Charlie Landy knew this kind of thing very well, and soon introduced several businessmen near Brisbane who supplied grape seedlings to Zhao Lei.

Zhao Lei found the biggest supplier in Brisbane, Daniel Ricardo.Ricardo was in his forties, with a dark complexion, and he looked like he had been working in the fields all year round.

Knowing that Zhao Lei wanted to buy grape seedlings for his winery, Ricardo hurriedly took him to his nursery, and warmly introduced him: "Mr. Zhao, you have come to the right place. I am the largest supplier of grape seedlings in Brisbane." There are many wineries in Warwick Town who buy grape seedlings from me!"

Zhao Lei asked with interest: "What kind of grapes do they usually buy?"

After deciding to run a winery, Zhao Lei also learned some relevant knowledge, knowing that brewing red wine is not easy.There are dozens of common grape varieties used for wine making alone. If you want to make good red wine, you must first have good grape varieties.If you want to brew the best red wine, the grapes, the environment and the winemaker are indispensable.

Speaking of this, Daniel Ricardo was a little excited, and he gushed: "In my nursery, there are the top ten wine grape varieties in the world, such as Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Ayrin, as long as you can think of them. They can all be bought from me, and the supply quantity is guaranteed!"

In fact, Zhao Lei is a complete layman, and he doesn't understand the differences between various grape varieties, so he asked straightforwardly: "What grape varieties are basically used by the wineries in Warwick Town?"

Going with the flow is the safest bet when you don't know a thing.Zhao Lei also grows what kind of grapes most wineries grow, so it should not be wrong.

Daniel Ricardo pondered for a moment and said, "Cabernet Sauvignon is the most planted near Warwick, and then Ayrin."

Thinking of what Ricardo said just now, Cabernet Sauvignon is still the most planted variety in the world's wineries, so Zhao Lei said without hesitation: "Then Cabernet Sauvignon, I want enough seedlings to plant [-] hectares of vineyards."

Ricardo told Zhao Lei that according to the specific conditions of an Australian winery, at least 1200 grapes should be planted on one hectare of land, and [-] grapes would be planted on [-] hectares of land.Under normal circumstances, each bunch of grapes can make a glass of wine.Each grape can produce five bunches of grapes, which is equivalent to a bottle of wine.Therefore, if the grape harvest of Xianhu Winery can be abundant, it can produce [-] bottles of wine a year.

The price of each Cabernet Sauvignon grape seedling is about 12 Australian dollars, so the total price of [-] grape seedlings is [-] Australian dollars.

This is a big business, Daniel Ricardo is of course very happy, and then it is to discuss details such as price and delivery method.

Zhao Lei did not counter-offer, but had special requirements on the delivery method.As long as Ricardo prepares the grape seedlings as soon as possible and piles them up on the side of the path leading to the nursery, he will find someone to transport them.

Ricardo has been in this business for many years, but he has never heard of such a request, so he couldn't help but confirm it with Zhao Lei again and again.And Zhao Lei's answer was very clear, just do as he said, and he wrote a check for [-] Australian dollars on the spot.

Since this was the case, Ricardo didn't hesitate anymore, and immediately found workers to dig the grape seedlings.Right now is the early spring season in the southern hemisphere, which is the most suitable time for transplanting grape seedlings.The workers dug out the grape seedlings planted in biodegradable seedling bags, neatly stacked them on the side of the road, and sprinkled them with water carefully, waiting for Zhao Lei to find someone to transport them.

Sixty thousand grape seedlings is not a small number. Ricardo led the workers to work for a whole afternoon, and when all the grape seedlings were dug out and placed on the roadside, it was almost completely dark.

Ricardo worriedly said to Zhao Lei: "Mr. Zhao, there is no way to load the grape seedlings into the car now. You'd better have someone come and transport the grape seedlings away as soon as possible. The sooner you plant the grape seedlings, the higher the survival rate will be."

"I know, don't worry." Zhao Lei comforted Ricardo with a smile, and gave him another check for [-] Australian dollars.

Ricari was also very happy to meet a customer who paid so happily, and secretly hoped that the survival rate of this batch of grape seedlings would be high enough to leave a good impression on such a good customer.

Ricardo carefully collected the check, and asked Zhao Lei with a smile on his face: "Mr. Zhao, it's getting late, do you want me to drive you back to the city?"

"Thank you for your kindness, but there is no need." Zhao Lei shook his head with a smile and said, "I have already agreed with my friend that he will come to pick me up soon, and we will come over early tomorrow morning to transport all the grape seedlings away. "

Now that Zhao Lei has already made arrangements, Ricardo is not too busy, reminding him to pay attention to the wild dogs wandering nearby, and then he drove the pickup truck and left the nursery together with the workers.

Ricardo's nursery, located just outside Brisbane, is completely deserted at night.Just like what Ricardo said before he left, the barking of wild dogs came from not far away, and it was really scary to hear it at night.

Of course, Zhao Lei didn't take wild dogs seriously. After Ricardo and the nursery workers left, he immediately put all the grape seedlings into the purple gold gourd with a thought, so he didn't have to worry about being discovered by others.

After harvesting the grape seedlings, Zhao Lei left the nursery and found the nearest motel to stay.He carefully locked the door, and then entered the gourd space with a thought.

After the familiar dizziness passed, Zhao Lei's eyes fell on the red fruit tree not far away, and he immediately smiled happily.
