Marvel: I traveled through time a little early

Chapter 16 Wine Tasting
George, who was just about to go to Ryan's room and go out to eat together, then looked towards the door of the room.

"Dong dong dong" there was a knock on the door. George opened the door and saw Mori standing at the door.

"George, I heard you wanted to see me."

"Oh, let's go and see some good things together later." George said with a smile. Seeing that Pang Bo didn't come, George didn't ask any more questions. He probably didn't want to involve too much.

After getting into Morrie's car, George said: "Morrie, go to your chassis, I put something over there." Then he reported an address.

Neither of them spoke in the car. Ten minutes later, the car stopped at the entrance of the warehouse that George had temporarily rented.George got out of the car and took out the key to open the warehouse.Morrie was very surprised when he saw the wine barrels stacked there like a hill.

What surprised Mori the most was that someone had put so much wine on his property, but he didn't receive any news at all. The problems exposed frightened him.What would happen if a gunman was transported in? What he wanted to know most now was how George did this silently.

Morrie walked around in front of the two piles of hills, turned to George and asked: "How much wine is there in total here?"

George lifted up two 45-liter wine barrels and said: "There are two kinds of wine here, each containing 5000 liters. One is Canadian whiskey and the other is Canadian wine. It's just right. You can taste it later."

Morrie said with a more serious expression: "George, tell me who helped you transport these wines. This is very important."

Looking at his serious expression, George understood what he meant and said to him directly: "Morrie, I understand what you are worried about. Don't worry, my teacher arranged the people, and each of them has some special abilities. . But they don’t have any idea about your business, they just came to help me because I asked my teacher.”

"And if they have any ideas, you can't stop them at all." After saying that, George, who was standing five meters away from Mori just now, appeared directly next to him and put his arm around his shoulders.

This action startled Morrie. He stared at the place where George was standing just now, and then pointed at the place where he was standing now: "Oh my God!"

George was deliberately showing off his strength to a lawless family, even one with a relatively good reputation.George will not believe the kindness of the other party.Since it is cooperation, we must have equal strength, otherwise we will be eaten by the other party sooner or later.

Appropriate exposure of things can help everyone do business more calmly.

"It's a small trick, don't be too surprised." After saying that, he picked up two buckets, turned around and walked outside. "Let's go, let's talk again later."

George put the barrel of wine into the car, threw the key to Morrie, and said, "The wine is all there. Ask someone to check it out."

After saying that, he took the lead and got into the car.Morrie handed the keys to another of his men, said a few words to him, and then got into the car as well.

Ten minutes later, the car drove into an underground parking lot.After entering through a secret door at the corner of the corridor, they came to an underground restaurant.From the slightly noisy environment, you can tell that this underground restaurant is of a lower quality than the one we went to last time.

Morrie led him through the guests in the lobby and into a separate private room.After entering, the noise outside suddenly weakened too much.After they sat down respectively, Mori said: "This is our own restaurant, and the business is very easy now." After saying that, he asked the waiter who had just followed them into the box to take out the two barrels of wine, and then He ordered some more food.

Within 2 minutes, the waiter brought over two bottles of wine. It was the Canadian whiskey and Canadian grapes that George had brought.

After waiting for Mori's instruction, he poured a glass of wine for both of them and then withdrew.

The two first picked up grapes, Canadian wine, which is a sweet wine.

Special geographical location, located around 41 degrees north latitude)
George picked up the wine glass, put it under his nose and smelled it, then shook it slowly, and a fragrance gradually came out.

George took a sip and felt the unique aroma of black currant and black olive, followed closely by the aroma of red berries, dark chocolate and black olive.In the mouth, this wine feels very lively and full of flavor, with a round and full taste, firm and complete tannins, and a long-lasting aftertaste, which is perfectly integrated with the characteristics of oak.The fruit is rich and complex, with a tart luscious finish that is refined and lingering.Rich and delicate.Perhaps because the quality of the wine was a bit lower, compared with the vintage wine that George drank at his own winery, the various fruity aromas were slightly weaker, and the various flavors were not rich and delicate enough.Therefore, George just took a sip and put down the glass.

George thought it was inferior because he had tasted better wines.

Therefore, if he said it, it would probably be regarded as another way of showing off.Seeing the expression of enjoyment on Mori's face, George didn't tell them that this was just the lower-grade one.

After drinking the glass of wine, they rinsed their mouths with water and then picked up the whiskey again.Compared with other whiskeys, Canadian whiskey is light whiskey. Put it in front of your nose and smell the aroma of grains. The whiskey in the glass has light impurities.In fact, the whiskey currently in barrels does not complete the entire production process.These barreled wines have only been mixed but not bottled. Before bottling, the blended whiskey must be filtered again to remove impurities, and then the whiskey must be fixed by an automated bottling machine. The capacity is divided into each wine bottle.

Because the previous Gwen Winery had not continued production for a long time, the packaging equipment had been damaged.George was pressed for time, so he shipped it in advance and asked Mori and others to filter and package it themselves.

George and Morrie's dinner was relatively silent.It wasn't until after dinner that one of Mori's previously arranged subordinates came in. Mori asked directly, "Have you seen them all?"

"Yes, there are 5000 liters of whiskey and [-] liters of wine each. The whiskey and wine are of good quality. And all the wines are of the same quality and are produced by regular wineries."

Mori nodded and waved his men to retreat.Then he said: "I will give you this batch of wine at a price of 20 US dollars per liter. Is it okay?"

George took a slow sip of whiskey. He knew that the quality of his batch of wine was at the level of the current downstairs restaurant, and it was definitely among the best.They can sell a liter of wine for $40, and that's just the current price.George knew that the price of wine would be at least two hundred times higher than before.

Therefore, George did not show joy.Instead, he raised his head and asked, "What happens next?"

"From now on, we have a price of $10 per liter. I want as much as you have."

"Haha" George shook his head and said with a smile: "I have no objection to this batch of wine, and it doesn't matter. But not in the future. And you can't eat it."

When Morrie was about to say something, George waved his hand and continued: "This batch of wine has not been filtered and bottled yet. After filtration, the taste of the wine will be greatly improved. And this kind of whiskey is of guaranteed quality. , it will be very rare in the future. If it is sold like the wine of those small workshops, it will be a hidden treasure."

"So, this batch of wine will be given to you at the price you gave me, and then you put it on the market to try. And I can provide 5 liters of wine of this quality every month. You still think you can eat it. Do you want to do it? My plan is to divide it. As for the proportion, it can be discussed. "

Mori thought more about it.After thinking about it seriously, he said, "Can you guarantee that you can provide 5 liters every month?"

"Don't worry, this is just this year's volume, there will be more next year."

"Okay, I may ask you to wait a moment, and I'll give you an answer later. How can I give you the money for this batch of wine?" Morrie seemed to have made a decision.

"Of course, I'm waiting for your news. By the way, it can be delivered to any city in the United States. This is a tribute to Mr. Corleone. For this amount, if possible, let's go play two games in the evening. You see How about it?"

During alcohol smuggling during Prohibition, the seller was only responsible for preparing the wine and placing it in a city on the border, and the buyer would do it himself. If the selling price was higher, the wine to be smuggled would just be transported directly to a certain place in the United States. Of course, this would The price will be much higher.And George directly promised to send it to every place where it was needed, saying that it was a tribute to Mr. Corleone, which can be said to be real benefits.

The meaning of playing two games at night was to find a regular casino, and then Mori would send people in batches to deliberately lose to George, so that the money would be laundered.

Unfortunately, nothing like the plot in the novel happened in the casino.He simply went to the casino and pretended to be rich, and directly took 21 chips on a blackjack table to be the banker.Morrie arranged for people to fill up the positions. After a few rounds, he lost all 15 U.S. dollars in chips to George. This first transaction was considered completed.

George returned to the hotel very late at night. After washing up, he went to bed. Before going to bed, he followed the same rules as before, still practicing ten avatars and only practicing corpse pulse.

The next day, George didn't wake up until noon.Get up and take back your clone, wash up and have lunch with Ryan first.

The Library of Congress in Washington, one of the world's largest libraries, is located directly east of the Capitol in Washington and consists of the Jefferson Building, Adams Building and Madison Memorial Building.It has a collection of 2000 million books as well as various charts, manuscripts, maps, periodicals, records, films, etc., totaling 8000 million items.

George stood in front of the door of this library that was more than 200 years old and lingered for several minutes before sighing and walking inside.
