Chapter 1229 I Have Money but No Place to Spend It.

A steaming ball was brought to the table, accompanied by steaming heat and a strong smell of mutton.

The hostess, Jason's mother, cut open the black thing and revealed a pile of black objects inside. It looked like dumpling fillings, but the color and shape were completely unrecognizable. appetite.

The side dishes were mashed potatoes, French fries, and chopped carrots. Jason's mother put haggis, the national dish of Scotland, on the plate in turn, and then served it to everyone in turn.

When it comes to food, Russians don't have much say, so Yelena's expression is okay and there hasn't been much change, but Raphael is different. He also comes from a country that produces delicious food, so when he sees it, Although Haggis in front of him still had a smile on his face, Gao Yang saw that he swallowed a few mouthfuls of saliva with difficulty.

After waiting for everyone to have a black object on the plate in front of them, Jason said happily: "Everyone try our famous dish, haggis. It is very time-consuming, but it is well worth the wait. "

Jason's father, Will, raised his glass and shouted: "Cheers!"

Haggis cannot be eaten with red wine, it must be paired with whiskey, and the Jensen family now has a winery, so whiskey is the highlight.

The whiskey is good, really good.

As for Scotland’s national dish, haggis, Gao Yang took a bite and found it to be okay. At least it was much better than the appearance. The strong peppery flavor covered up the mutton smell, and the texture was quite delicate. Although he thought it was better than haggis. It was a complete waste to make such a damn thing, but Gao Yang didn't expect to enjoy delicious food when he arrived in the UK.

Gao Yang had been on the grasslands of Sudan for three years and had never eaten anything strange. Not to mention carefully cooked haggis, even if he was given some strange object that was half-cooked and dripping with blood, he would not change his expression. If you eat it, whether it tastes good or not is one thing; whether you can eat it or not is another matter.

Gao Yang has a very strong tolerance. He can eat everything on his plate without any hesitation, but others can't.

After taking a bite, Raphael. When he really couldn't do it anymore, he looked calm and stirred the things on the plate around with his fork, but he just refused to put it in his mouth.

Erin had a firm look on her face, maintained table manners, and ate bits and pieces of the food on the plate without changing her expression. After all, she had served as a special forces soldier. 80 e-book/The training you have received is to be different from others.

Jason said with a smile on his face: "Let me tell you how to make haggis. Chop the sheep heart, liver, lungs, mutton fat and so on.

Add ingredients such as peppers and onions, then put them into the sheep's stomach. Tie the sheep's stomach tightly with a rope and put it in the pot to cook. It will be ready in about three hours. "

Jason definitely did it on purpose. Yelena could still take a few bites despite holding on, but after hearing what Jason said, she refused to take another bite.

Fortunately, Will understands. He waved his hand and said with a smile: "This dish is a kind of enjoyment for us. But many people may not be used to it. If you are not used to it, please leave it. It doesn't matter. You are not Scottish after all. I am very Can understand.”

Raphael and Yelena seemed to be pardoned, but Gao Yang said with a smile: "It seems that I am the kind of person who can enjoy it, because I think it is delicious."

People have been busy for a long time, and they can't eat without everyone, for Gao Yang. Although the food you eat here is not delicious, there is no problem eating it. Then let him be the diner who gives the master face.

In fact, having said that, haggis is not really a dark cuisine. Being able to eat haggis is much better than being forced to learn about the famous dark cuisine of the British.

Compared with the food, the wine produced by Jensen's family is much better. Jensen's father runs a small distillery and makes whiskey using very traditional methods. Gao Yang doesn't like foreign wine very much, but he can still tell the difference between good and bad wine.

After picking up a small glass of whiskey and drinking it down, Raphael took a breath and said loudly: "This wine is great! Mr. Jones, your wine must be in short supply now."

Will smiled and said: "The sales are really good now, thanks to Jason asking his two friends to advertise for us. Now our orders have been until next year, and we have passed the most difficult period. "

Jason pointed at Gao Yang and said with a smile: "You have to thank him. Adele and Catherine are his friends, not mine."

Will raised his glass to Gao Yang and said with a smile: "Then I have to thank you. In order to express my gratitude to you, I decided to provide you with free drinking for life, no limit, haha, cheers."

Gao Yang drank the whiskey in the glass, looked at the wine bottle on the table, and said strangely: "This tastes different from what we drank before."

Jason smiled and said: "My wines are divided into four grades. The cheapest is ten pounds a bottle, then thirty pounds, one hundred pounds, and the most expensive one is one hundred and fifty pounds. I originally gave you all the wines. It's a hundred and fifty pounds, and what we're drinking now is thirty pounds a bottle."

After finishing speaking, Jason pointed to his father and said with a smile: "My father still likes this one the most. The price is different because of the different craftsmanship. The smaller the output, the more expensive it is. But as for the taste, I can only say that it looks good." Which one do you like?"

When Europeans drink, the most important thing is drinks under ten euros. Wine worth 150 pounds must be high-end spirits. As for red wine that costs tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands per bottle, it is a luxury product, and there are not many in Europe. I can afford to drink it, but few people have even seen it.

Will shrugged and said: "Our wine is on the expensive side. Originally, sales have been very poor and the brewery was on the verge of bankruptcy. But then Jason made money and we passed the most difficult period, and we made two beautiful people After the lady advertised, the sales are now good. The thirty-pound wine is the best-selling one, followed by the ten-pound wine. As for the two wines of one hundred pounds and one hundred and fifty pounds, there is only a symbolic production part. .”

Jason laughed and said: "I let you drink the most expensive wine, haha!"

Will put down his knife and fork, spread his hands and said: "There is no way, we are a new brand. I am very confident in the taste of our own wine, but it will obviously take time to join the ranks of high-end wines. The British alcohol market is very competitive. Fierce, to be honest, I am very satisfied that our winery can maintain its current situation.”

Gao Yang smiled and said loudly: "Don't sell the most expensive one for 150 pounds. Change the brand, change the packaging, and sell it for 1,500 pounds. You can find the gimmick yourself. I will help you open the market and export to the United States." go."

Will said in a daze: "Mr. Gao, are you kidding?"

Gao Yang shook his head and said: "I'm not joking. In fact, your whiskey is really good. I know a few people, and they all praise your wine. It's just that they don't have anywhere to buy it. Now the problem is, if you If you export wine to the United States, you can only sell it for 200 to 300 pounds at most. Frankly speaking, this price is too low."

Will said stupidly: "Three hundred pounds, too low?"

Gao Yang nodded and said: "Yes, it's too low. Those rich people, well, if you sell a bottle for three hundred pounds, they will think that your wine cannot be used to entertain friends. You have status. To put it bluntly, they can't show it off." ,you understand?"

Will shook his head and said: "I don't understand. A three-hundred-pound bottle of wine is too low-grade? Can't be shown off? Sorry, I can't understand, because my products are inherently high-end wines because the brewing process is complicated and requires It’s been aged for a long time in special oak barrels, so there’s really no profit in selling it for £150.”

Gao Yang smiled and said, "How many of the most expensive ones can you sell in a year now?"

Will smiled bitterly and said: "Dealers will buy a few bottles in very small quantities, just for display purposes, except for their own daily use, but unfortunately, they have not been sold yet."

Gao Yang waved his hand and asked curiously: "What is the annual output?"

Will frowned and said, "We can produce up to five hundred bottles this year, which is the most."

Gao Yang was very surprised and said loudly: "Only five hundred bottles? So few? What about the one hundred pounds?"

"One hundred, five hundred to two thousand bottles, that's the maximum. This is already the limit."

Gao Yang took a long breath and said: "There's only so much! Limited edition, limited edition, each bottle is numbered, one to ninety-nine, there are too many to buy, this is the best, how much does a bottle cost? ? Well, let’s just sell it for 5,999 pounds per bottle! The next-level product is limited to 1,000 bottles and sells for 999 pounds. We’ll set this price temporarily and raise the price if demand exceeds supply.”

Will smiled bitterly and said: "No one can buy this kind of wine. Mr. Gao, we are not a famous winery, nor a winery with a long history. I understand the meaning of high-end luxury goods, but we can't do this." Can’t sell it.”

At this moment, Irene's phone rang. She took out the phone and took a look at it, then made a gesture to Gao Yang.

After Gao Yang nodded, he continued to smile at Will: "You can't sell even one bottle of high-end wine now. Even if you sell 10,000 bottles, you can still sell all one bottle at most. What are you afraid of? Besides, Okay, even if you sell all the most expensive wine, it's only 500 bottles. How much money can you make? You just said the profit is very slim, so I'll just count it as a profit of ten pounds. Five hundred bottles are only 5,000 yuan. This is not the way to gain fame."

After picking up the wine glass and signaling to Will, Gao Yang drank the wine in one gulp, and then he said with a smile: "Listen to me and do as I say. You can find a gimmick yourself and make up a better story. Then leave the rest to me. I will help you open the American market first. What I can do is make your wine popular among the upper class society in the United States and let them rush to buy your wine."

Will drank it all in one gulp, and then said with a wry smile: "Unless they are all crazy."

Putting down the glass, Gao Yang said seriously: "Mr. Jones, you have to understand one thing. For rich people, they are not stupid or crazy. They just have money and no place to spend it. Do as I say and make up the wine." Just sign up and leave the rest to me." (To be continued.)
