"This batch of black wine, trade half to the Hammer of Justice. I don't want gold coins, I want equivalent grain, wheat, rye, barley, soybeans, corn are all fine." Gavin began to show his fox tail. He went to the Battle Valley to open up new territory, and there was another important task, that is, to stockpile grain, a lot of it, crazy stockpile. Just when I was worried that there was no good way, Daniel came to the door himself. All monasteries and churches are often the actual owners of the land in the surrounding areas and the largest granaries. There is protection in terms of security. Monasteries often have their own armed protection. If there is no support from evil gods, general evil forces dare not risk blasphemy and attack monasteries. Food is an excellent way to control and recruit more believers. Some devout believers are often converted from refugees who come to ask for food. In addition to the monastery's own farmland, some farmers will cultivate farmland around the monastery to seek shelter. These self-cultivating farmers are often believers of these monasteries. In order to express their gratitude for their faith and shelter, they will donate part of their grain to the monastery every year. Among them, the monastery of Mother Earth, Chauntia, is a model in this regard. Although the Hammer of Justice Monastery is a monastery in Tyr, it is powerful enough and must be the largest granary near the Taselgudon Hills.
Daniel's reaction also confirmed this. When he heard that Gavin wanted 100,000 gold coins of food, he didn't even frown, but wondered what Gavin was going to do with it: "What do you want so much food for? Do you want to expand the new business of the manor? Brew grain wine? If so, I advise you to give up. Although they are both alcoholic beverages, the craftsmanship of wine and grain wine is completely different. And you don't have an advantage. At least compared to our Hammer of Justice, which has been passed down for hundreds of years, you can't catch up in ten years. What's more, you rely on eating grain to make wine, and the cost immediately goes up." Daniel instinctively thought of the manor winery. After all, 100,000 gold coins of food is not a small amount, enough to support an army of 10,000 people for three months. There are only a few people in Vizeme Manor now. Even if Gavin recruits soldiers crazily, there will be only a few hundred people in a year. If so much grain is not used for wine, it will depreciate and rot if it is left here. Gavin showed a mysterious smile and said, "Mr. Daniel, don't worry about what it is used for. Just tell me whether you want to do this deal or not. Whether it is black wine or grain transportation, you don't have to worry about it. I will be responsible for it." He ate grain so crazily, not just to supply the needs of the rock land. It is also to prepare for the upcoming war at the end of this year. As the saying goes, before the army moves, the food and grass must go first. Especially when the army gathers, food and grass will occupy a vital position. Before Tukan's army arrived, the grain price in the entire valley was very low. When Tukan's hundreds of thousands of troops arrived, especially once the expedition summons of Yasang III was issued, the grain price here would soar wildly. It is no exaggeration to say that it changes three times a day. In just a few months, it will increase seven or eight times. Hoarding grain is definitely a sure-win business. Gavin's ambition is even greater. He not only wants to stockpile a large amount of food, but also wants to transport the food to the front line at the most tense and critical moment, so as to maximize the benefits. Hearing what Gavin said, Daniel couldn't help but narrow his eyes and couldn't help but look at the young man in front of him again. Although the other party didn't say it clearly, the meaning revealed in his words was very obvious. The other party was not a lonely adventurer, but had a huge identity background, otherwise he would not dare to boast and transport such a large amount of food. Because such a large amount of food, when walking on the road, what needs to be worried about is not only the transportation capacity, but also the safety issue. Many evil forces will be interested in such a large amount of food. The other party didn't say it directly, so it was obvious that this question couldn't be asked further.
Daniel weighed the options and said, "If Mr. Gavin has the ability, I naturally have no reason to disagree. It's no problem to exchange your entire cellar for grain." "I just said that if all the inventory is taken, it will be a big loss for you." Gavin smiled and threw out the second deal, "If the Hammer of Justice still needs black wine in the future, you only need to place an order every year, and you can use grain for equal value transactions." Daniel stood up, staring at Gavin with sparkling eyes, and said, "You mean, can Vizeme Manor produce black wine in batches in the future?" Products generated by accident and cannot be replicated are one thing. It is another thing to be able to produce in batches every year in the future. The meaning and price are very different. If this is true, this batch of black wine is indeed not suitable for complete consumption, let alone hoarding, but as a unique product, it should be sold as soon as possible, otherwise when the new product is launched, the price will depreciate significantly. Gavin nodded and said, "I can't guarantee that the quality will surpass or match this batch, but there shouldn't be much problem in producing black wine." These black wines have simply traveled around the Shadow Plane for a few times and absorbed pure negative energy. For other wineries, this may be a big problem, after all, not everyone can enter and exit the Shadow Plane. But for Vizeme Manor, it is a piece of cake, because it has the ability to freely enter and exit the Shadow Plane. The finished wine can still absorb negative energy and produce this kind of mutation. Gavin was very curious. If the entire winemaking process was placed in the Shadow Plane, what kind of wonderful chemical reaction would be produced? But before the formal experiment, he dared not say too much. Gavin added: "I would like to ask you to keep this matter confidential for me, at least before the new product is launched." The reason for emphasizing so much is that he is afraid that the three holy warriors are too honest and cannot maximize the value of this batch of black wine. "No problem keeping it confidential." It was not Daniel who spoke, but Regina. She smiled with a cunning look on her face, "But compared to Mr. Gavin, I have a better suggestion." Just by the other party's smile, Gavin knew what the other party wanted to do. He must want to get a share of the black wine trade. Gavin didn't mean to refuse. Compared with empty promises, he believed more in the binding of interests. He showed an interested look and said, "Miss Regina, what good suggestions do you have? Tell me." "This batch of black wine, with a reserve price of 200,000, will be divided into three parts. Mr. Gavin, me, and Mr. Daniel will each take one part. Of course, I will not take advantage of Mr. Gavin for nothing. I will be responsible for promoting the black wine and make its reputation resound throughout the valley, resounding throughout Sambia, and even resounding throughout the entire Dragon Coast. What do you think?" Regina put forward her own plan. She knew very well where her advantages were, and she invested in it. "This is good, this proposal is good." Gavin's eyes sparkled, and he couldn't help but say repeatedly: "This proposal is a true win-win cooperation. I wonder what Mr. Daniel thinks?" Regina's proposal is the most basic advertising and marketing model. To put it simply, it is artificial hype. This unique black wine, especially the new product on the market, is a very watery issue when it comes to pricing. If the price is 20 gold coins per bottle, but no one recognizes it and no one buys it, it will be useless. If the price is 100 gold coins per bottle, and people are scrambling to buy it, that's the real level.
Good wine needs no depth of water. That's for old brands, which need time to settle. They need to sell all the black wine before the new products come out and turn it into actual profits. That requires professional flattery. Among the three waves of people, Regina is undoubtedly the most suitable candidate. Her professional ability is suitable, her influence is sufficient, and most importantly, she has ideas. In such a short time, she came up with such an ingenious cooperation method, and her business acumen is definitely extraordinary. You know, she has no experience from another life to learn from, and this method is a precedent in Faerun. Compared with her, Gavin is not a little bit behind in this regard. Even if he took advantage of the reference, he still waited until the other party proposed it before thinking of the benefits. If you leave the advertising and marketing to her, you can definitely rest assured. Daniel almost didn't even think about it, and nodded directly: "I have no objection." Not to mention compared to Regina, even compared to Gavin, he is obviously inferior in business. When he opened his mouth earlier, he wanted to eat all the black wine, not because he had an outstanding business vision, but simply thought that black wine was very useful for their holy warriors' training, and bought them all for his own use. But as the Vizeme Manor was able to produce black wine, the nature of this matter began to change. It became a business, a transaction, and it would be a bit difficult for him to operate it. It's better to give up part of the profit and follow Regina and Gavin to eat the ready-made ones. Gavin said enthusiastically: "If you are interested, our cooperation can not only be limited to this batch of black wine. In the future, the wine produced by our Vizeme Manor can adopt this cooperation model, and the share will remain unchanged." This approach seems to be a loss, giving away most of your own interests to others for nothing, but Gavin, who has had successful experience in the rock land, knows that the potential benefits are endless. For the sake of profit, they will treat this business as their own business. This is only one reason. The second reason is that the interest network and power network behind them will be borrowed by themselves. Regina is needless to say. Not to mention her influence in the Battle Valley, just her talent in advertising and marketing is worth this price. The Hammer of Justice Monastery represented by Ganel is a symbol of fairness and justice. If they support it, they will be labeled as fair and just. This label attribute has a natural advantage in attracting refugees. When cooperating with such a Paladin organization, as long as you don't run wildly on the irredeemable evil path, they will not easily plot against you behind your back. The most important thing is that the distance between the two is close enough, and there are still many places to borrow power in the future. "Then it's settled." Regina naturally did not hesitate. Even if it is a just cause, it needs financial support. If she has this stable income, she will be more confident and more persuasive when persuading more elves, half-elves and kind people to join her cause. Daniel was not so shameless, and said a little embarrassedly: "We didn't do anything, but we just gave you one-third of the profit. Isn't this inappropriate?" "Whether it is suitable or not is not up to you, but I. We will need to rely on you in many places in the future." Gavin said with a smile, "There is one thing we agreed in advance. I don't care whether the black wine given to you is sold or used by yourself, but I hope that both families will pay the principal with grain, whether it is old grain or new grain."
Anyway, Gavin is ready to carry out his grain hoarding business to the end. Even if there is no war this year, there will be many more places where he needs food in the future. Even if he works hard to reclaim wasteland, the gap will be huge. This is another point that he values the Hammer of Justice Monastery. He will first arrange a stable food supply base for himself.
