Chapter 103 The Butler
Planting grapes does not start with seeds, but planting and pruning vines with bud eyes. Therefore, half of the remaining vines account for one-third of the land in the Duvo vineyard, and wasteland and houses are really not very valuable these days.
Chen Yan took over Dufo Manor and took over this part of the intact vines, and everything went smoothly.
The local farmers handed over the vines to the new landlord and got a bounty. They were also very happy... As for how much they secretly sold in the middle, don't ask about this, it's rare to be confused... People cannot survive by relying on the air.
Besides, the grape varieties in Duver Vineyard should be the same as wine and cannot be sold at high prices. Unlike the vines that flow out of Fort Ravello (produced by top wines such as East East and Pomino), they are definitely sky-high prices on the black market. Smugglers who dare to try to take them abroad will even kill them if they catch them!
Chen Yan was too lazy to play with these farmers, fishing and law enforcement. On the first day of his tenure, he wore armor and held the Tossent steel sword in his hand, and cut off the monsters around the manor with great force, and also cut down seven or eight thieves!
When he was covered in blood, he dragged a few people back to the manor with his head calmed down.
Monster corpses? Of course, monster corpses are in space bags, and waste is not a good habit. The next day, more than a dozen carriages carrying grain, vegetables, fruits, pears and peaches drove into the manor and successively transported them into the warehouse and cellar, and the people's hearts were almost completely stabilized.
The new boss has fists and food, what else can I worry about?
On the third day, the housekeeper Barnabassau Fu came to Duver Manor in advance to report.
*****
Barnabassau Futi is not only named strangely, but also strangely.
What he wore was cleaner and tidy than most nobles, his etiquette was perfect than most nobles, and his knowledge could crush a large number of intellectuals... But such people wanted to be a housekeeper and liked to wear a pair of ruffian round glasses.
As soon as he saw Chen Yan, he bluntly asked the question in his heart, "Why do you have to be me?"
In three days, he had found out the specific information and knew that Chen Yan had to name him! But Futi was very clear that although he was familiar with all the things in the vineyard and was confident in management, it was referring to Baiyao Vineyard where he worked for more than twenty years, and he knew where every stone of Baiyao was placed. Chen Yan had just bought Dufo, and what he needed most was a person familiar with Dufo. The landlord and the butler were not locals. This was bad...
"Because I only want the best." Chen Yan said, "As for these," Chen Yan looked around the manors, "There are land and people who work, the rest are optional." Although the officials of the Principality were so serious about everything when handing over, Chen Yan could not care about the "legacy" left by Dufo!
He had no intention of rebuilding several mid-range wine brands that Duver originally produced according to the route they "set up" and then slowly growing... Chen Yan's plan was to stabilize the estate first, and then look for a red wine brand flavor that suits him. After finding it, whether it is stealing or robbing, he must get the recipe and then produce it on a large scale.
Analyzing the recipe and mixing flavors is difficult for others to reach the top, and it is only a basic operation for him, an alchemist.
He did not intend to dump products on a large scale to squeeze out other people's markets, which is immoral. From the moment he bought the manor, the products will no longer be exported. After the wine is stored in the year, it will be thrown directly into the cracks of time and space. In the future, Kunpeng World Market will be exclusively supplied and has nothing to do with this world.
Barnabass Basso Futi smiled, "I am the best, I'm happy to serve you."
"Then I'll leave it to you next. I'll list a expenditure that I expect to pay. I want to know how much more money will be spent next."
*****
"We still have to continue making money." Chen Yan sighed with headache when he saw the three-page paper written by Fu to him.
Selling gems is definitely not a solution. The gems are much more useful than the kroner. Most of the time, you can't buy gems if you have money.
"Futi, what do you think the nobles care about the most?"
"Life, decent and heir."
Chen Yan knocked on the table with his fingers, and it turned out to be money, women and power? These nobles were really boring.
This is the misunderstanding of the rights of the aristocratic class caused by not understanding this class. It has fixed the upper and lower limits from birth, and basically the scope of maneuverability is very narrow. It is extremely difficult to break through the ceiling. They work hard all their lives to prevent themselves from falling under the floor, and there is no pursuit of anything else. Money is similar. It is difficult for aristocrats to ruin their family background, and it is even more difficult to become rich. Most of the time they can only be a landlord tied to the land.
As for women... there is no limit to this. As long as you don’t capsize, just do whatever you want and try not to make an illegitimate child.
Someone commented on the aristocratic circle in the capital, saying this, "This is like a big family." What does this sentence mean? Well, a medical drama that has been filmed for more than ten seasons has become like this in the end. The heroine has fucked all the male characters, the hero has fucked all the female characters, and then they still love each other.
Chen Yan believed that Futi was telling the truth. Since the nobles really care about this, he must have to think about how to make money from these three aspects. Everything is based on the needs of customers. The customer is the Jade Emperor.
Then now this question becomes very simple, and there is no need to even conduct in-depth research. Because when Chen Yan was in the ruins of the city, the "demonic potion" improved by Chen Yan with the help of Mixuer involved these aspects.
The modified demonizing potion first removes the negative effects of infertility. In fact, after demonization, it is not really infertility, but the probability can be negligible. Michelle acted the opposite way and used the druid method to strengthen this probability infinitely, so that the enhanced demon hunter can give birth to offspring like a normal person.
Then if this effect is separated and used on ordinary people, it will be as terrifying as triplets and quadruplets coming... the rhythm of a well-off society becoming bankrupt.
The lifespan is similar. The magic potion can give the enhancer a lifespan of hundreds of years. Separating a weakened version can satisfy all the imaginations of ordinary people; as for decent, Chen Yan has plastic surgery, beauty, breast enhancement and body shaping, I don’t know if it is decent.
Thinking of Grand Duke Anna's carefully dressed face, Chen Yan sneered.
I really think that if I send me a broken manor, I can save the few thousand kroners in the treasury? Haha, stop dreaming!
I’ll give you a word, the wind blows the eggshells, and wealth leaves people’s happiness.
"Futi, this is the cosmetics I have carefully prepared for Her Majesty Anna Henry Yeta. Please help me pack them and send them to the Bowkran Palace together with a carriage of flowers. The usage has been written in detail, which is absolutely safe."
