The five hundred and seventieth chapter [the purple rose of the empire] two or three together
Bordeaux is beautiful in autumn, with the smell of grapes and the fragrance of lavender floating everywhere. The road to the manor has been built wider. Since Xianren Manor won the title of Second-Classie Winery, the fine regional wine produced has begun to be in short supply. The demand for Linshui Chateau in several major cities in France alone has ensured a minimum of 20,000 bottles sold per year, and sales are still rising. Xianren Manor has reached the extreme for this, and its sales are about to reach a terrifying 40,000 bottles. Even in Second-Classie Winery, such sales are quite amazing.
"Old Sean plans to provide winery grades and also enter AOC?"
David was here to pick them up. With the rise of the water, he is now a well-known winemaker in the Bordeaux region. Especially with the unique winemaking process produced by Zhou Yi's assembly line, even without internal energy cultivation, he can occasionally brew top red wines that reach the basic AOC. Although David and the winemakers in the manor signed confidentiality agreements with the manor and could not disclose Zhou Yi's "simplified" winemaking methods, he still enjoyed it. Whenever he saw that the wine that could only be brewed by Mouton, Raphael, such as the top winemaker of the top winery, appeared in his hands, he would be so excited that he remembered the magical oriental youth.
"Yes, just one month ago, your 'Purple Dragon Ball' was ripe. We used this mysterious new grape to try to make the top red wine. We found that even if it has not been stored for a long time, its taste has turned Mouton and top Raphael into ordinary goods..."
David laughed and kept expressing his joy. It was with this newly brewed red wine that he had been nominated for Bordeaux's Best Winemaker of the Year; although Bordeaux is just a wine producing area in France, according to the rules of previous years, winemakers who can win this honor will become the hottest figure in the entire industry: "Zhou, my magical boss. Your grapes and winemaking methods are amazing. These honors should belong to you, and you will become the most admired figure in the history of French winemaking..."
"Haha, this is also your efforts, honors, etc., so forget it."
Zhou Yi just smiled. If he wanted to get similar honors, he would probably get a lot of them in a minute. These reputations were really not attractive to him. He was just very curious now. The seeds sent to Old Sean were only ten acres of "Purple Dragon Ball". He had never tried planting them. I don't know what the taste of this thing after harvest. With the "strange tricks" that David and his friends left behind, how much good wine can be brewed? Is there any boastful ingredients?
"That's a new wine. Whether it's a cellar or not, it can make people enjoy the most wonderful enjoyment. We'll temporarily name it "Violet of the Empire". Zhou, do you like this name? Mr. Sean said that if you don't like it, you can change it at any time."
"The Violet of the Empire?" Zhou Yi was slightly stunned. Old Shawn looked very nostalgic. The name seemed to bring people back to the Middle Ages; but he nodded: "Well, a very good name, with a courageous and romantic name, which reminds people of a graceful and luxurious lady with snow-white skin... maybe a noble lady?"

The old man Zhou Maotong also stopped and looked at his son with his eyes blinking. His curiosity overwhelmed his alcohol addiction.
"Maybe I didn't make it clear, and the requirements were too high."
Zhou Yi glanced at his father and smiled and said, "What I said is that the wine made with purple dragon balls should be of higher quality. If it is just the level of 'Empire Violet', it would really ruin the purple dragon balls. Mr. Sean, do you know why I only gave ten acres of seeds? Firstly, it is because this grape has too high requirements for ground abilities. Even if you use the best fertilizer, once you plant more than ten acres, it will affect the growth of other grapes; secondly, it is because it is expensive. This grape can not only not be kept for seeds, but also cost 180,000 rmb per acre, equivalent to French francs, and also 140,000 to 50,000..."
"So expensive, and it can't be planted on a large scale?"
Old Sean shook his head repeatedly, it was such a pity.
"A good grape like this naturally needs to make the best red wine. Just like Mouton Winery's signature product, Mouton in 45 years." Zhou Yi smiled and said, "It's a pity that you still haven't played the greatest effect of the Purple Dragon Ball, so I'm disappointed."
"Zhou, I said that Mr. Sean lacks truly first-class equipment and top winemakers. Even with your help, Mary's winery today lacks enough 'wine culture'. To put it bluntly, it is a lack of precipitation..."
A voice suddenly came from behind, mixed with a gentle applause. This was a very good guy who only talked about Mary Manor, but not called "Yanren Manor". It was obviously because he considered Zhou Yi's feelings.
"Haha. Sir, we seem to be familiar with each other." When the other party approached, Zhou Yi had already felt it, and had long observed him with his mental power, Gogh Castel, the declining nobleman in France. The so-called declining does not mean that he is about to go bankrupt. On the contrary, he is very rich and is the owner of Mouton Winery, but that his family has become increasingly difficult to integrate into the real aristocratic circle of Europe with the changes of the times.
Although France is one of the European countries with the most thorough modern bourgeois revolution, some real old nobles, such as the Louis family and the Charles de Gaulle family, are still regarded as real nobles by royal countries such as Britain, Belgium, Switzerland and Sweden, while their family is the object of making fun of them. At aristocratic banquets, there are often nobles drinking top Mouton while smiling and saying, Look, who is coming, the janitor of the castle. The surname Castel is interpreted in ancient French as the people living in the castle, and those bastard nobles are too vicious.
During the French Wine and Food Competition, Zhou Yi once met this legendary figure in the French wine industry. It was also the same competition that made Gaoge Castel remember a young man named Huaxia Zhou.
"I'm Gogh Castel, you know, the name is always associated with Mouton Winery."
Although he fell, Gogh Castel still maintained the noble style, with a kind tone and humorous tone. Even though his ancestors were given the title of top-notch wine, they were not awarded for their outstanding military achievements.
"Oh, is it Mr. Castel?"
"No, no, Zhou, you can give me Gao Ge. We are already friends, aren't it?"
Gog Castel was wearing a formal suit cut in a finely crafted suit, a round and polite, and a golden wire chain tortoiseshell eyes on the bridge of his nose. He looked gentle and polite, which made people feel a good impression, but Old Sean and David curled their lips. The nobles of Bordeaux have been here several times, and they have never acted so politely in front of them. What a hypocritical guy.
"Zhou, I just heard the name of Purple Dragon Ball and also heard your words. It's such a coincidence that Joseph has the same view as you."
"Mr. Zhou, I am Joseph." Joseph, who was following Castel, looked at David and Old Sean with a bit arrogantly, but bowed politely to Zhou Maotong and Zhou Yi. It seemed that Mouton's intelligence work was done well. Not only did he know the identity of the old man, but he also knew that Zhou Yi was the one who truly saved the idle manor and successfully upgraded it to a second-level winery.
"Oh, it seems very lively today?"
Zhou Maotong stopped drinking, put down the wine glass, and his eyes narrowed into a slit. The old man had many hobbies in his life, such as eating and drinking, especially complimenting, and Joseph's respect made him very helpful.
"Please forgive me, Moutong Winery once got a few 'Purple Dragon Balls' at a high price..."
"What! Which bastard gave you? Is David you? It shouldn't be, who is it? If I knew, he would get out immediately!" Old Sean never had a good face to Mouton, just like the poor and lower-middle peasants treated the rich landlords during the domestic revolutionary war. Hearing Joseph's words, Old Sean was angry.
"Oh, oh, Mr. Sean, you are now also a manager of a second-level winery. Should you have enough cultivation?"
Gogh Castel smiled softly: "It doesn't matter who we got the Purple Dragon Ball from. What's important is that Joseph has the same view on the 'Empire' as Zhou. Mr. Joseph believes that the Purple Dragon Ball can make higher-level red wine, and it's really ruined now. Fortunately, as far as I know, the Purple Dragon Balls in the Yiren Manor have not been used up yet, otherwise it would be a pity..."
"Gaoge, don't think that the remaining purple dragon balls belong to idle manors. You can't get a single one. Go back to your winery and don't let me drive them away!" Old Sean's face turned even more ugly, and he almost immediately roared. David also looked at Castel and Joseph hostilely, with fire in his eyes. In addition to being a winemaker, he was also a blacksmith of his ancestors.
"Mr. Gaoge, do you want the Purple Dragon Ball?"
Zhou Yi smiled and shook the wine glass in his hand, carefully looking at the noble master in Bordeaux. Even though he was a hand-off manager and had never really managed the winery, he knew that coveting other people's grapes was the biggest taboo in the French wine industry. A proud "noble" like Gogh Castel would not be unaware of what made him ignore his face?
Zhou Yi was very curious. If this matter spreads, it will ruin Mouton Winery's reputation. Mouton Winery's top customers will even give up this brand. Is Castell unclear?
"Zhou, I know this is rude, but I hope you can help me and help Mouton Winery once. Of course, I will give you the most reward..."
