Chapter 846 Some are happy and some are worried (2 updates
When Wu Lingling was buying a new home and looking forward to her future life, little did she know that her every move had not escaped the scrutiny of Colonel Yan.
After sending Little Loli to Xuanjia, Young Master Yan went back to see his great-grandma, sent a piece of food to Grandpa, went back to the garrison area to talk about work with the boss of the military area, and then went to chat with the bosses of certain departments. He knew that Little Loli Li invited the young people of Gu Xiu's family to drink tea, but he was too busy to join in the fun.
After he reached a cooperation agreement with some old guys from various departments in advance and was busy dealing with other things, he received a report from the scout arranged in Shishi and learned that Huang had sent a sum of money to his mistress. Wu ran away. Xi County looked at the real estate and laughed it off. What did Huang want to do when he sent his concubine out of Fang County?
Did they want to kill someone with a borrowed knife, so they sent the person away under their noses and let the little loli kill the person named Wu, or were they prepared to find an opportunity to kill all the insiders who might have a negative impact on the Huang family?
No matter what Mr. Huang wants, Yan Xing thinks there is no rush and lets them run wild. When he dispatches his manpower to Chong C City and Shi City and plans the work in Chong C City properly, he will give it to Mr. Huang when the time comes. People find something to do.
He was not going to tell Little Loli now. He would tell her in person after Wu bought the house and completed all the procedures to move in. Then he received news that Little Loli and Young Master Xuan had ordered a night flight in the evening. After flying to country F, everyone feels bad, and the little loli wants to go abroad to play again?
Knowing that the little Loli was going abroad to play, Yan Xing was very unhappy. He sat there for a while, continued working, and let her go. The Little Loli was not in the country, and even if he caused trouble, it would not affect her mood.
Classmate Le was caught by Young Master Xuan studying medicinal foods at Xuanjia. At around eight o'clock in the evening, he packed his luggage and left for the airport at nine o'clock. It took him more than three minutes to get to the international airport.
When they arrived, Hua Shao had already arrived first. Hua Shao and Xuan Shao brought the same troops as last time. In fact, Hua Shao did not need to go to country F anymore. He was still idle and continued to wander.
When I declared my visa, I signed for country F, so I had to go for a few days and then go to Europe to apply for a visa in order to avoid raising doubts about my credibility.
The two families met, checked in, went through security, entered the terminal to wait for the flight, and waited until the time to board the plane. The flight took off at 1 am.
Night flights are also popular among travelers during certain periods of time, especially among middle-class travelers. After all, night flights are relatively cheaper and therefore have a lot of passengers.
The official flight itinerary shows that the time is 11 hours, because there is a 6-hour time difference between country F and Greater China. It took off from China at 1 a.m. and arrived at the Capital International Airport of country F at 5:55 a.m. on October 20.
It was early morning in country F when the plane arrived. As the season entered the winter period, the temperature was slightly lower, about 10 degrees.
This season is the peak travel season for country F, and the passenger volume at the airport is amazing.
Mr. Xuan and his party had no checked luggage, so they left the airport with their carry-on luggage and walked through the immigration channel to declare their entry property. Each of them had antique jewelry and cash, so it would be safer to declare it.
Ms. Le had medical supplies with her, and she went out of her way to declare them so as not to cause unnecessary trouble. The estimated value was hundreds of thousands of euros, and she had to pay a tax. From then on, she encountered some temporary inspections in country F, saying she was carrying valuables. , as long as the value does not exceed the value of the valuables she declared when entering the country, she will not be regarded as a smuggler.
After checking in at the airport and passing through several security checks, the group left the terminal and immediately went to the train station to take a train to the Bordeaux district where Chateau Latour is located.
When the young people from the Chinese nation boarded the train to Bordeaux, the vampires of the Reifno family waiting at the capital airport immediately reported the whereabouts of the Chinese monks to the count in the Bordeaux district.
Count Ryan arrived in Bordeaux on Monday of that week.
A few days ago, during the National Day holiday in China, the five vampire families - Lesemba, Cappado, Fenzhuo, Nofeile, and Gange - were busy packing compensation items for the Oriental girl. One by one, they were transported to country F and sent to the manor of Count Ryan of the Ravnor family.
Count Ryan was originally unwilling to receive compensation from various tribes and deliver it to the Oriental girl in his manor. Count Bastian acted as a peacemaker and persuaded him to consider the long-term future of the vampire race. He made this decision out of consideration for the prosperity of the entire vampire race. Sacrifice, wrong yourself, and accept that five vampire families use their manor as a warehouse to store treasures.
Of course, because Count Leian is currently the only vampire that makes Eastern girls favor him, Cassio, Arturo, Edela, Philip, and Count Ares want Count Leian to say something nice for themselves in front of Oriental girls. , reluctantly parted ways and took out several of his collections as small gifts for Ryan.
The five earls moved the compensation items to Earl Ryan's manor in batches, and their people also stayed in country F.
When the Mid-Autumn Festival holiday of China ended, the clan leaders of various ethnic groups also rushed to Country F one after another.
Bastian and Earl John, the neutrals among the vampires, moved into Earl Ryan's manor and waited for the oriental girl to come to collect compensation before negotiating on the magic potion.
Count Ryan received a report from the family's little vampire that the Eastern monk family was coming, and also passed the news to Count Bastian to let them be mentally prepared.
Count Bastian jumped up after receiving the letter and flew around the room in the manor, muttering: "Coming, coming, coming..."
"Sir, how can you solve the problem?"
Earl John looked at the old Earl flying around in the sky with a questioning look on his face. If he could find inspiration by flying around, he would be willing to fly around in the sky if he couldn't make up his mind about something.
Bastian, who was scurrying around like a fly, was stunned, fell to the ground, and paced uneasily: "To be honest, I really don't have any confidence in negotiating with an oriental girl. The oriental girl is not consistent with her apparent age, and she always gets angry. Throwing potion is still unreasonable..."
John rolled his eyes. If she was being reasonable, would she kill an earl directly?
He didn't make any suggestions. He silently took out his mobile phone and called Casio and others who were wandering somewhere, telling them to return quickly so as not to accidentally find prey and suck the blood of the prey and bump into the Eastern monks again.
Earl John informed the vampire Earl. Bastian sat down, still feeling uneasy. He felt that the negotiation must have Earl Ryan by his side to have any hope of success.
Old Aubrey returned from abroad only on the day after the Oktoberfest in European country D. He returned to the Tsimichy manor in country F and never left again. When he received a report from the little vampire sent to scout that there was a magic potion in the East When the girl arrived in country F, she was so angry that she yelled and cursed in the manor building.
That damn girl, because of her, the various clan leaders of the Vampire Clan took turns scolding him, accusing his family members of being brainless and provoking people they shouldn't provoke even though they were incompetent, thereby bringing disaster to the Vampire Clan and causing the Vampire Clan to suffer an unprecedented crisis. .
Not only was he scolded, but in addition to his family's share of the compensation, other families also had to bear an additional share. It was... almost like robbing the entire Tsimixi clan.
Old Aubrey was so angry that he didn't dare to scold Bastian, nor could he scold other vampire clan leaders. He only dared to secretly scold the oriental girl to vent his anger.
The vampires of the Tsimixi tribe hid far away to avoid the disaster of the thunder pool.
After Earl Ryan notified Count Bastian who was in his own manor, he went from Bordeaux to Chateau Latour to wait for the Eastern monks.
The Bordeaux region is the production area of top red wine in country F. It is also a major tourist area with convenient transportation. You can choose from planes, trains, and self-driving cars. There are also companies that rent vehicles for tourists for self-driving tours.
Mr. Xuan and his party took the train from the capital of country F to Bordeaux, enjoying the scenery along the way and arriving at the station in only two hours.
Take a taxi from the train station to a bank in the center of Bol to exchange euros, and then go to the reserved place to pick up the vehicle booked by the rental company.
A total of four cars were rented, two sedans and two extended vans, which could accommodate more than 20 people.
If you have a car, you can drive wherever you want without worrying about getting a taxi.
The young people of Xuanjia Youth and Huajia drove their cars on the road and wandered towards Chateau Latour, looking at the characteristic buildings in the city. When they left the city, the sky was high, the clouds were vast, and there were green trees and grassland.
Hotel Latour is more than 40 kilometers away from the city of Bordeaux. It takes two hours to reach the winery by driving slowly.
The winery is a castle with centuries of history. It is located not far from the river bank on higher ground. There is a forest, grassland and mostly vineyards next to the castle.
The ancient castle is also the signature building of the winery.
September and October are the best harvesting seasons for grapes. At this time, the leaves of the grapes are no longer bright green, but have been dyed by autumn. In the unpicked vineyards, there are rows of grape leaves in bunches. You can also see the busy figures of workers picking grapes in the garden, as well as cars parked in some parts of the vineyard and baskets filled with grapes lined up around them. The European-style castle of Chateau Latour is located among the vineyards on the river bank. The river not far away flows quietly, and the workers are busy in the vineyards, forming a landscape painting that is both dynamic and quiet.
The young people of the Xuanjia Hua family found the winery according to the navigation, drove the car towards the castle, drove slowly, walked through the vineyards along the clean road, and parked at the entrance of the winery.
When the four cars arrived, Earl Ryan, who was staying in the hotel room, smelled the scent, went downstairs, walked out of the castle hall and went outside to welcome the oriental girl. A receptionist from the winery also came outside to greet the guests.
The young people from the Xuanjia and Hua families parked their cars aside and got out of the car one after another.
Le Yun saw the young and handsome Earl Ryan from a distance. After getting off the car, she greeted the winery receptionist and Earl Ryan in pure French: "Good morning, handsome young gentlemen."
"Good morning, beautiful lady and handsome gentlemen, welcome to Chateau Latour." The guest spoke French, and the receptionist was very happy and gave a welcome speech to the guests in English.
"Beautiful Miss Dongfang, you speak French very well." Count Ryan welcomed the Eastern guests with a smile: "Welcome to country F."
Young Master Xuan Shaohua responded in English, shook hands with Earl Ryan, and shook hands with the receptionist. The young people went back to pick up their luggage and followed the receptionist into the lobby. Two young people who knew French went to handle the formalities, and the others followed the receptionist to the lobby. Sit down in the reception area.
The castle hall retains the ancient style, with exquisite reliefs and murals, and exquisite decoration. What the receptionists brought was not tea, but the winery's own red wine and homemade cakes.
The purest local red wine has a certain appeal. Le Yun did not control her mouth. She tasted it and gave a thumbs up: "This is a Merlot wine produced in 1982. It is like a hero singing a hymn. There are The most bold and intense feelings, a strong and strong voice.”
Earl Ryan almost wanted to grab the oriental girl and ask her whether she was a human or a ghost. Even if you say the age when you tasted the wine, can you still tell which variety of grape the wine is made from, or is it a human?
The receptionist of the winery stared at Miss Dongfang in shock. After half a minute, he nodded: "As you said, it is the red wine produced in 1982, made from the grapes produced by the few Merlot vines. You are also the youngest and most powerful top sommelier I have ever seen.”
"Thank you." Being praised as the most powerful top sommelier, Le Yun accepted the praise generously. Being humble means being proud. She is not a proud person.
"Young sir, I'll order two dozen wines of this vintage." As a true fan of Chateau Latour, Mr. Xuan immediately made an appointment to place an order.
Because there are six bottles in the box and multiples of six, in order to avoid errors, Mr. Xuan calculated by dozen. One dozen is the number of twelve, and two dozen is the number of twenty-four bottles.
"Okay, sir, I will fill in the order for you later. The winemakers will receive your order and will package the wine and deliver it to your room soon."
Oriental guests reserve a vintage of red wine before entering the guest room, and the receptionist politely accepts the order.
We had just finished half a glass of wine here, and the check-in and surgery were completed. The young people from the Hua family and the Xuan family first carried their luggage and went upstairs to check the guest room, leaving only Xuan and Hua to follow the young master closely.
Anyway, she drank a few sips of red wine. In order not to waste it, Le Yun drank up her own red wine. She and Xuan Shaohua, who had finished a bottle of red wine, went upstairs to the guest room. Earl Ryan accompanied the Oriental youths to the second floor and then downstairs. Wait in the lobby.
This season is the peak travel season, and the guest rooms in the castle are very popular, but the number is limited. The young people of the Hua family and the Xuan family share a room, the young people of the Hua family and the Xuan family share a room, and the little Loli has an exclusive room.
The guest rooms maintain the old style, are low-key and romantic.
The young people placed their luggage, took a shower, and then went downstairs to walk along the river and visit the vineyards. Since they were not visiting a winemaking workshop, they did not need to be accompanied by a winery waiter.
Earl Ryan is a good guide, accompanying the Oriental youth to walk along the river, admiring the river, vineyards and distant scenery, and watching the workers picking grapes.
Student Le is interested in woods and vines, but unfortunately it is not his own territory. He cannot take sap from the trees, nor can he dig vines. Even the plants that can be used as medicinal herbs on other people’s properties must be ignored. For this reason, Student Le Very depressed.
You can’t do whatever you want, you can only stroll around Chateau Latour, enjoy the scenery, and take beautiful photos. Country F has entered the winter period, and the grape leaves and tree leaves are dyed red by time. It has a strong autumn mood with the late autumn of China. , the landscape photos taken are beautiful.
It took more than two hours to walk around. It was lunch time when we returned to the winery and went to the large restaurant to dine.
The table tops in the restaurant are spotless, the floors are polished and shine, and the crystal lamps have a dreamy feel.
A bottle of red wine from 1990s was given to the table for lunch. Hua Shao thought it tasted good and ordered a box without even moving an eyebrow.
After the meal, the two young men were left in the hotel while the others drove to nearby wineries to visit. Each winery would take away a box of wine and return to Chateau Latour in the evening.
On the second day, we visited the workshop and wine cellar of Chateau Latour, including the underground wine cellar. We were also lucky enough to watch the workers pouring barrels. Because there was a little girl who was fluent in French and good at wine tasting, and was very popular among the winemakers.
The head winemaker and the little girl even had a heated discussion about the brewing process, ranging from the growth status of the grape seedlings to the tightness of the soil, the age of the grapevines and the difference in fruit quality, whether the temperature difference during the harvest season affects the quality, and other in-depth issues.
The oriental girl not only understood, but also mastered the most professional words about wine quite accurately. The two of them spoke pure and fluent French, chatting and having a lively discussion.
Young Master Xuan Shaohua was confused as he listened to the conversation that was like a dog fight: "..." Go ahead, meet such a know-it-all little loli, it's so shocking, I really want to beat the little monster to death!
Earl Ryan: "..." He couldn't get a word in at all!
The more the head brewer discussed deeper topics with the oriental girl, the brighter his eyes became. After a flurry of exchanges, he simply invited the oriental girl to go to the garden. Moreover, he held a notebook. Sometimes he would listen to the little girl's words and take notes quickly. .
The winemaker took the girl from one small area to another in the vineyard area, tasting grapes from different areas. She was still unsatisfied until noon, because the winery informed them of lunch, so they returned to have a meal.
After the meal, the brewer caught up with the Oriental girl to communicate again, and invited the Oriental guests to taste the red wine. They tasted the same wines, some of which were wines of the same era and different grades. He even brought out several precious aged wine collections collected by the winery to invite the girl. taste.
When a girl tastes a kind of wine, she will tell the pros and cons. After tasting the most precious collection, she generously gave a few methods and suggestions to improve the quality to a higher level.
The brewer felt like he had found a treasure and recorded them one by one. He could not wait to bring out all the wines and ask the Oriental girl to taste them. But after the girl tasted the twelfth different wine, she resolutely stopped tasting the wines and stopped evaluating them. I couldn't force him, so I had to let him go.
Xuan Shaohua Shao drove to nearby areas for a stroll, visited other wineries, and returned to Chateau Latour in the evening.
On the third day, the group went to another top winery, Margaux, without a reservation. Not only were they lucky enough to visit the winery cellar, they also had dinner at the winery at noon and purchased two boxes of red wine.
On the fourth day, the young people rushed to Chateau Lafite, one of the five most historic wineries in the Bordeaux region. Mr. Xuan bought two more boxes of red wine.
After that, they went around to Chateau Obiang to buy two boxes of red wine, and then happily returned to Chateau Latour with the results.
On the fifth day, young people from the East left and bought twenty boxes of red wine from Chateau Latour, including one box of 1960s vintage. The Eastern guests were generous, and Chateau Latour gave away two boxes of red wine aged in the 1960s and 1960s. Oriental Girl has two boxes of aged wine from the 1950s, two boxes from the 1960s, two boxes from the 1970s, and two boxes from the 1980s, as well as one grape vine seedling of each variety. I would like to thank her for providing good advice to the winery.
Xuan Shaohua was stunned. Count Ryan almost suspected that the manager of Chateau Latour was insane. He sent eight boxes, not eight bottles of red wine, especially the wines aged in the 1950s and 1960s are more precious. A bottle of wine from those best years can sometimes sell for more than fifty thousand euros.
