Chapter 565 Building a top winery
Seeing the fleet sailing again, the security team members who stayed behind the ranch and the travel company employees were undoubtedly the happiest group. Even the local employees of the ranch were naturally very happy to know that the boss had returned.
In the eyes of the local employees hired by these ranches, as long as Zhuang Haiyang returns, they will have more or less additional benefits. For example, this time the fleet comes back, I believe that next time I return to the ranches, there will be a seafood gift package to receive.
For Louis and Jenook, who are in charge of managing the ranch, they are actually happy to see their boss return to the ranch. Even if they are used to being the boss as the boss, they can save a lot of worries when Zhuang Haiyang is there.
No, on the first night of arriving at the ranch, the employees who had tasted the fruits and praised them all on their first night of arriving at the ranch and watching the large amount of fruits brought down from the fishing boats, without exception. Even Louis and the others felt extremely surprised.
He said bluntly: "BOSS, is this the fruit you grow on a domestic farm? This tastes really great!"
"That's natural! The pasture can grow top-quality kiwi fruits and kiwi berry, so I can do it on my domestic farm. However, these fruits have been frozen and kept fresh for a while. If they were just picked from the tree, the taste might be better."
"It seems that next time I have the chance, Nuuk and I should visit your farm more."
"Welcome! My wife, I'll have a baby in a few months. When you have time, you can take your family with you and have fun there. There are still many beautiful scenery in my country."
"Well, we will think carefully!"
With this job, the two of them have become the middle-class people of Newesile since they were not very prominent managers. It can even be said that their income is no less than those in high-yield stages.
Both of them knew that all of this was due to Zhuang Haiyang's trust in them. It was this trust that made the two of them work hard to manage the ranch for Zhuang Haiyang. The reward was a considerable salary and bonus.
At least their family, with their salary, did live an enviable wealthy life. Even Louis and Jenook felt that when they retire from the ranch in the future, they would not have to worry about their retirement life after retirement.
In contrast, the sent domestic employees were mixed with the arrival crew members, drinking, bragging, and talking about domestic and farms. The happy scene also made many new team members feel comfortable.
After the dinner, Zhuang Haiyang also carefully called the two backbones to his castle, took out two bottles of bees from the suitcase he brought and said, "Louis, Nuke, this is a small gift I specially prepared for you, won't you dislike it?"
"Of course I won't! I believe that the gift from the BOSS is not simple, right?"
Without any sign, you can see a bottle of amber-like liquid. Just when the two were curious, Zhuang Haiyang pretended to be serious and said, "This is the first batch of fruit nectar harvested from my farm, and truly pure and natural wild honey.
Maybe you have eaten this kind of thing before, but what I want to say is that this is not just honey, but an extremely rare health supplement. One spoonful of it every morning and evening, brewing it with boiling water can effectively regulate the body and improve immunity!”
"Wow, really? Then this bee should be very precious, right?"
"Indeed! You may not know that in this small bottle of bees, someone paid nearly 200,000 NZD to buy a bottle, but I didn't agree. The reason is that I think this kind of good thing should be left for my own people to enjoy, right?"
"Thank you, BOSS!"
After receiving the thanks from the two, Zhuang Haiyang also smiled and said, "You have always been responsible for the ranch work, and I am very relieved. It can be said that with you, I can be such a worry-free boss. I should be thankful to you.
However, the number of these bees is extremely limited. If you still want to drink, you can only wait for about half a year before you can drink them. Therefore, you should try to save some drinks. If you finish drinking, even I will not be able to provide you with a second bottle. Do you understand?"
"OK, we get it, thank you BOSS!"
Louis and Jenuk, who are also quite old, naturally would not refuse it. A small gift that seems to be very ordinary makes the two feel very heartwarming. This can be considered a small bribe of people's hearts.
As for the others, Zhuang Haiyang can only say sorry. After all, the amount of honey is really limited!
When he woke up in the morning, Zhuang Haiyang looked at the electric car as usual and began to visit his ranch. When he arrived at the beach, he naturally had to go to see the oyster cultivation area and the cage farm built offshore.
Seeing the increasing number of oysters, Zhuang Haiyang also smiled and said, "It seems that it is time to find someone to arrange someone to harvest another batch. I believe that those restaurants purchased should not refuse these oysters!"
After a cruise along the coast, Zhuang Haiyang was also very happy to see the significantly increased marine life and the significantly improved offshore ecological environment. Speaking of which, he did not spend much effort on the offshore transformation of the pasture.
The current situation is more due to the ecological environment near the sea, which is indeed much better than in China. Just a little improvement, I believe that in the future, which is under ranch control, the offshore area will become a treasure trove.
At least a few reef areas, there are a lot of abalone growing now. Zhuang Haiyang also plans to harvest a batch of these abalones in the future. In Nucilai, perhaps this thing is not too valuable. If transported back to China, the price will be very high.
Even Zhuang Haiyang doesn’t have to pay high taxes like others. When and how much is this purely wild-farmed abalone that is picked in the offshore can be decided by yourself.
After soaking in the sea for more than two hours, when seeing the sun that had jumped out of the sea level, Zhuang Haiyang also smiled and said, "The weather is good! I'll stay in the ranch for a good rest these two days. Some things also require more energy."
For example, the groundwater veins, plantations, pastures, and vineyards that Zhuanghaiyang attaches more importance to. Zhuanghaiyang needs to spend more time improving the pasture so that it can continue to develop.
If Louis and others thought that he was somewhat unreliable in vineyard planting. Then the vineyards now have been highly valued by Louis and others. The reason is that the grapes in the vineyard are growing very well.
Louis also knew that if the first vineyard could produce high-quality grapes, then the plan to build a winery in Zhuanghai might be implemented. Similar grapes could be planted in the subsequent valleys.
With enough vineyards, the ranch can produce high-quality wine every year. Top steaks, paired with top-quality wines, will also play a vital role in enhancing the reputation of the ranch.
During the day, when other comrades were free to move and rest, Zhuang Haiyang, led by Louis, inspected the plantations and orchards of the pasture. Looking at the fruit vines full of fruits, Zhuang Haiyang also seemed very satisfied.
Standing in the kiwi orchard, Zhuang Haiyang also said directly: "I think a buyer has issued a reservation contract for this batch of kiwi fruits? The kiwi fruits we sold last year were sold very high. What are you going to do this year?"
"Yes! As long as the quality of the kiwi fruit in the orchard this year is similar to last year, then the sales of this batch of kiwi fruits will definitely not be a problem. If the price is just, we will definitely not be able to sell it at a low price this year."
"That's natural! You can just be responsible for handling this matter, I believe you."
"Thank you for your trust! In fact, our supply chain is now very complete. As long as we can grow top-quality kiwi fruits, I believe that the customers we cooperate with should be happy to purchase some."
With the increase in customers establishing cooperation channels with the ranch, Louis, as a ranch manager, no longer limits his cooperation with domestic buyers. In fact, some fruits and vegetables on the farm have begun to be sold to internationally renowned restaurants.
Although there are not many varieties of fruits grown on the ranch, as long as the quality is guaranteed, those restaurants are willing to purchase them at high prices. For these restaurants, the fruit itself is one of the raw materials they purchase.
After seeing the plantations and orchards, I came to the ocean of the vineyards and looked at the grapes that are not large at present, and each bunch of fruits bears a lot. I was also very happy: "It seems that this year's vineyards can usher in a bumper harvest year, right?"
"Well! Judging from the current situation, it is true. It's just that it will take some time for the grapes to mature. As long as there is no major change in the weather, there should be no big problem with the grape harvest this year."
After listening to Louis's story, Zhuang Haiyang also knew that if grapes want to produce a lot of grapes, they really need the help of the weather. Farming depends on the weather, and it is almost the same there. Therefore, Louis's words make sense.
On the other hand, Zhuang Haiyang said very directly: "In this case, our winery will probably have to be built in advance and hire a winemaker. All these tasks will be left to you. If you need to pay, you can just apply. Is there no problem?"
"Okay, boss! In fact, I have already contacted several well-known winemakers in China. However, most of these winemakers said that they don't care about their salary, but the quality of grapes in our ranch."
"Isn't that even more okay?"
As soon as these words came out, Louis was stunned for a moment and smiled and said, "Yes! I think so too!"
For those well-known winemakers, they already have a reputation, and what they really hope for is nothing more than having the opportunity to make truly top-notch wines. This is why they care more about the quality of grapes.
But whether it is Zhuanghai or Louis, they are full of confidence in this already formed vineyard. If there are truly top vineyards in the South Island, Louis is very confident that this vineyard will only be born on the marine ranch.
