African Entrepreneurship Records 2

Chapter 153
"There are 57 people in total, so let's count as [-] people." Mikhail bargained to the businessman.

"That's not okay, that's not how wiping is done. My brother, your family has a big business, and you have a large estate left by your ancestors. Why make things difficult for me, a small worker." Giova, an employee of the Moscow Labor Service Company Ni said to Mikhail.

"Brother, brother, these years have been miserable! Since the reform, my fields have not increased, and I have to pay more labor costs. In the end, I thought about buying some machines to save some costs, but the price is simply too low. My The batch of machines has not paid back its cost now!" Mikhail complained.

After listening to Mikhail's words, Giovanni seemed to have made up his mind and said: "Brother, I can't see you suffering.

I know your character, you are a well-known honest man near Moscow, but business is business, and I can't let the company lose money.

In this way, I personally sponsor you a bottle of Romantic Paris brand red wine, with two bottles of Wrangler vodka, and what about the price!Let's settle according to what we agreed in advance, and I will suffer a little bit, but our friendship cannot be measured by money.

And what we're doing is not a one-off deal, brother, you know, we've been dating for a couple of days, and I'll be the first to let you know if there's any benefit.

Next time, you have received the 'goods', just send them to us. Our company has been in great demand for the past two years. In my opinion, this business can last at least another ten years. You can accumulate more and accumulate over time. , I dare not say anything else, it is still possible to earn some tobacco and alcohol money. "

After all, Giovanni took out a very high-end box from the carriage, and gave it to Mikhail with some reluctance, along with two bottles of Wrangler Vodka that he got from somewhere and tied with a rope.

Mikhail opened the box, and what came into view was a bottle of exquisitely packaged red wine. As a big boss, Mikhail directly opened the red wine with the screwdriver in the box, and took a sip of the bottle with his mouth.

Then, he pursed his lips thoughtfully, and said, "This wine tastes good, but it's not strong enough. I still prefer Wrangler."

Giovanni hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Brother, this is wine, which is naturally different from vodka. Nowadays, old men in the city pay attention to style when drinking. Next time you invite some friends to a banquet, it will definitely save face.

Look at the name, Romantic Paris, you can tell that it was imported from France. Look at the introduction above, it’s all in French, what does that mean!

I have probably heard people say that this romantic Paris is the ancient Roman Emperor Caesar, who conquered Gaul in the west. He was thirsty at a place called Lover's Spring near Paris, and then he drank from this spring, which felt very refreshing and sweet.

Later, a winemaker in the city of Rome heard about this, and he came here from Rome, thousands of miles away, to use the water from this spring to make fine wine. Not scattered.

Because this wine was born near Paris, and the water used comes from the lover's spring, it has the title of romantic Paris. "

Mikhail was puzzled: "Since this wine has such a long history, why haven't I heard of it before?"

Giovanni said: "Although this wine has an old allusion and a long history, its production was discontinued due to war and other reasons, and the Spring of Lovers finally dried up, and it disappeared into history along with Rome.

That is, more than ten years ago, an Italian businessman discovered this record and the approximate formula of the wine when he was sorting out the manuscripts of his ancestors.

A French winemaker heard that he bought the formula from a businessman, and then specially reproduced this wine in Paris. "

"The lover's spring has disappeared, so the taste of this wine will be different!" Mikhail said.

Giovanni has been waiting here for a long time, and he said: "Brother, you don't know about this, no matter how good the water in this lover's spring is, it is also the water in Paris, so the water quality has not changed in essence.

Moreover, this wine has been verified by authoritative masters and won a gold medal at the [-]nd European Brewing Congress.

Look at the engraving on the lid of this box!This wine won the gold medal of the European Brewing Conference in 1867.

The venue was held in Hechingen, Germany. I heard that this wine won the gold medal from many old brands.

The unanimous praise given by 24 wine tasting masters, can this taste be bad? "

It is basically clear at this point that this wine is a marketed brand, and it is absolutely inseparable from Ernst.

The so-called lovers' springs, Italian merchants and French winemakers are all non-existent.

Moreover, Romantic Paris is not even produced in Paris. The origin and factories of the raw materials are all in the Austro-Hungarian Empire, and they are only marketed around with a changed trademark.

In order to sell the wine, the Heixingen consortium frantically created more than 30 trademarks. Each trademark fabricated a romantic history or story, and none of them could be verified. All of them came from a certain businessman or historical materials of unknown origin.

The so-called European Brewing Conference was also organized by the Heixingen Consortium itself. Basically, every wine produced by itself was awarded an award. At the same time, other manufacturers invited to the banquet were also treated the same. The most important thing is to participate!
Of course, in this age when information is relatively limited, no one can tell the truth about these things. Mikhail was confused after a set of punches.

Mikhail believed it was true and began to inquire about this wine. He said to Giovanni: "My brother, where is this wine sold and what is the price?"

Giovanni said: "In Moscow and other cities you can buy them in stores, but to avoid fakes go to the Gorrigan store, where there is an official certification.

The bottle I gave you is only a medium price, worth six rubles. I heard that the high-quality ones cost twelve rubles, and there is also a collector's edition, which is not accessible to ordinary people. I heard that there are only more than 2000 bottles in Russia. "

"So expensive!" Mikhail was a little surprised when he heard it.

"Brother, it's cheap enough. Compared with those famous wines, the price of this romantic Paris is not too expensive, and romantic Paris needs a history, a taste, and a culture. You usually use this wine for banquets. Definitely a face," Giovanni said.

"That's not necessary. Usually there are no big names in my family, and they are not cultural people. It is enough to ask them to use a horseman. In the future, I will buy some to drink for myself when I am romantic in Paris." Mikhail said miserly.

"The Wrangler is also good, at least it tastes good in vodka." Giovanni said along the way.

"That's right, vodka is the symbol of Russia, and it's enough to invite them and the horsemen." Mikhail said.

In fact, Wrangler Vodka is still a product of the Hechingen Consortium, which is specially supplied to the Tsarist Russian market and used to expand the civilian market in Tsarist Russia. It has gained a good reputation in Tsarist Russia for its high strength, purity, and low price.

Moreover, the name Wrangler Vodka makes many Russians think that this is Russia's own brand.

Isn't the shepherd a Cossack?Vodka is enough to say, this Cossack, as the cavalry of the tsar, does meet the characteristics of the high intensity of vodka of the shepherd.
