Cheating players in Marvel
EP238. A Truck of Good Wine
After chatting for a while and making sure that nothing went wrong in the store these days, Shi Xiaolei finally remembered the business.
"Look at my brain." After patting his forehead, Shi Xiaolei stood up and walked out while saying hello: "Lao He, Chapel, come and help me. I brought a lot of things back."
Thinking that Shi Xiaolei was talking about souvenirs, they were also a little curious, so even though they were not named by him, Lisa and Claire followed him out of the store together.
Not only to guard against raindrops that might fall at any time, but also to prevent things in the truck bed from flying out, Shi Xiaolei covered the cargo bed behind the pickup truck with a thick tarpaulin.
"So many? What are they?" Chappell asked curiously while helping to untie the rope.
"Did you bring us souvenirs? There must be some, right?"
"With the boss's personality, how can it be impossible? Boss, am I right?"
"Get out of the way." Shi Xiaolei smiled and leaned on the cargo compartment, trying to lift the tarp to see the two girls. While working, Shi Xiaolei replied: "There are plenty of souvenirs. I'll give them to you later. What about that, Li?"
Sarah, Claire, you two go and tidy up the warehouse first, you will need to move a lot of things there in a while."
"Let me take a look first, just one look."
While talking, several ropes were successfully untied with the cooperation of He Liangxi and Chappell, and the tarpaulin was torn open by Shi Xiaolei, rolled up and rolled up, and temporarily stuffed into the cab.
"This is……"
I don't know how to read, but I can't recognize the wine bottle? Chappell was the first to react: "Wow, so many of them are wine? Boss, are you planning to change your career and open a bar?"
The cargo compartment of the pickup truck is quite large, containing more than twenty cardboard boxes and four snakeskin bags.
"What kind of bar? I don't have that idea. I brought these wines back specially to sell them in the store." As he spoke, Shi Xiaolei picked up a box of wine and put it in Chappell's hand: "Move to
Go to the warehouse and be careful, this thing is not cheap and it is not easy to buy."
"How much does a box cost?" The portion is not heavy, and it doesn't matter if you hold it for a while longer. Chappell did not turn around and leave immediately, but stood on the spot and asked again.
Before traveling through time, Shi Xiaolei was just an ordinary migrant worker. Although he was strong and earned a decent monthly salary on the construction site, for his future plans, he did not dare to spend that money on tobacco, alcohol, and food.
Occasionally, he would go out to have a meal with his co-workers, and they would only have two draft beers at most. Unless he was going to someone's house to help with work, such as building a house, preparing the land, cutting down trees, transplanting rice seedlings, etc., he would occasionally have a meal.
Have a few glasses of white wine.
There are only a few kinds of liquor that Shi Xiaolei has drunk, and the prices are basically more than one hundred or two hundred yuan per bottle. Shi Xiaolei has never drank liquor before traveling through time, but he still came to the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
This is the first time I came into contact with Lao Liu’s blessing next door.
"This box in your hand is worth about three thousand dollars."
If you don’t know which one tastes better, you can only use stupid methods, such as...picking the expensive ones.
Precisely because "price" is used as the reference standard, Shi Xiaolei can so clearly remember how much each box of liquor is worth.
"Three thousand dollars? Darling, it's really not cheap."
"A box of six bottles, on average, costs 500 dollars a bottle." As he spoke, Shi Xiaolei picked up another box of wine: "Your box is not the most expensive, but the box in my hand is even more expensive."
It should be higher."
"Are you serious? Boss, are you kidding me again?"
The price itself is one, and the second is that it does not meet the consumption level in the store. Because of Shi Xiaolei's words, not only Chappell, but Lisa and Claire also showed unexpected and surprised expressions.
And He Liangxi, who came from China... just looked at his expression, he looked similar to the three of them, but the reason why he was surprised was slightly different from the three of Chappell.
"Boss Shi, where did you get all these wines? I also opened a store in China, so I know a little bit about it. Most people can buy one or two bottles of such good wines, but you..." Yue
The more he looked at it, the more he smacked his lips, and He Liangxi unconsciously showed admiration in his eyes: "We have made box after box, and no brand has been left behind. Boss Shi, your skills are... incredible."
Wuliangye, Luzhou Laojiao, Shuijingfang, Jiannanchun, Langjiu, Tuopai, Quanxing Daqu, etc. Shi Xiaolei brought back seven or eight kinds of well-known liquors produced in Sichuan Province alone.
Speaking of which, it was also because when I was having dinner in a hotel, I was asked by the waiter, 'What kind of wine do you want to drink?', and when I was choosing, I heard him introduce that these famous brand wines are produced in Sichuan Province, which aroused Shi Xiaolei's heart.
Then, he came up with the idea of purchasing liquor from China and bringing it back to New York.
First, I listed the famous wines produced in Sichuan Province that the waiter mentioned, and then I thought, 'It's rare to come back, so I'll just bring a few other wines with me.' I added more and more, and when I finally stopped writing, Shi Xiaolei was listed in the list.
There are already more than thirty names on the list.
Of course, it does not mean that all these thirty kinds of liquor are liquor, nor does it mean that all the good wines purchased will be sold in stores. For example, two bottles of Wuliangye·Jiulongtan, or call Peng Mingwei to ask for his help.
Shi Xiaolei did not bring the two jars of authentic Shaoxing Nuerhong that he had just obtained to the store, but hid them directly in the safe in Ark.
Generally speaking, Shi Xiaolei divided the famous Chinese wines he brought back into three parts.
Some of them are taken out and sold in stores.
There was only a small half of these in the car, and there was more than half. Considering that the warehouse in the store was not big enough, Shi Xiaolei temporarily left them in the wine cellar in the manor.
Whether it's Wuliangye or Niulanshan, these liquors all have the same characteristic, that is, they can be bought if you have money.
In the second part, Shi Xiaolei planned to give it to his friends.
If the ones sold in the store are mass-produced versions that can be bought if you have money, the ones given to friends are the so-called limited editions.
After all, they are given as gifts, and things that are difficult to acquire can better reflect your sincerity.
And the last part, the ones Shi Xiaolei plans to collect for himself, are all out of print.
"It's okay. Thanks to my friends for giving me face, otherwise I wouldn't be able to get these." Shi Xiaolei smiled and did not show off to He Liangxi the limited edition and out-of-print wines that he had hidden.
"With these wines, the business in the store will definitely be better." He Liangxi nodded and laughed: "It's hard for others to tell, but if my uncle knew about it, he would definitely come to the store and have some drinks.
By the way, Boss Shi, how are you going to sell these wines? Are you going to sell them by the bottle like in China, or by the glass, as is the custom here?"
"I haven't thought about it yet. It depends on the situation." Shi Xiaolei shook his head: "When you said master, you reminded me. You can help me later... Forget it, I'll go by myself, so that the old man won't say anything about me.
Not sensible."
