"How much wine did you make in a month before?" Du Lin pointed outside the factory and walked out first. He was now full of alcohol, and alcohol was floating in the air. He could feel his cheeks getting hot. He was not particularly able to drink, so he was not very interested in drinking. He didn't like things that could not control his behavior.

Rhodes drank the pulp from the cup in one mouthful and placed the cup on the wooden barrels beside it. These wooden barrels are made of dragon blood wood. After the pulp is released, it will be poured into these wooden barrels. According to the required degrees, it can be bottled after being taken out in installments. The barrels made of dragon blood wood can absorb impurities and moisture. Generally, fruit wine will be stored for about three days, and higher ones will last for a week. After more than a week, the effect will be extremely limited. Therefore, the brewing method of high-altitude wine is to turn dragon blood wood into wood residue, put it into the container with the raw materials, and directly absorb impurities and moisture in this process.

He followed Dulin for a few steps and whispered: "At that time, we could produce up to 20,000 bottles a month, and we supplied about 70 to 80% of local demand."

In this way, it is just Ilian that consumes almost a thousand bottles of wine every day. What about the entire empire? Of course, there are no other places like Ilian, but 100 bottles can always be sold every day. There are 16 states and regions in the entire empire and more than 200 cities. If calculated based on this data, the empire will consume at least 20,000 bottles of wine every day.

But this number is far lower than the real number. In some bustling cities, more alcohol-containing beverages may be consumed every day than Ilian. Excluding those relatively backward and economically underdeveloped areas, occupying a quarter of the market share, it takes about 10,000 to 20,000 bottles of wine every day. This is a very low conservative number. The specific number needs to be found until the next batch of orders arrive, but Dulin is very clear that this number is very low.

"Continue to expand the factory and strive to get 500,000 bottles of wine every month." Dulin took out a cigarette and handed it to Rhodes. Rhodes even forgot to pick up the cigarette from Dulin's hand!

Five hundred thousand bottles of wine a month? They used to brew nearly ten thousand bottles of wine a year, but now the volume of one month is three or four times the output of the previous year. Rhodes has a doubt. Can he really sell all these wines every month? You should know that brewing is different from other businesses. Once the specific number is determined, it will be purchased on the market at a designated location, which requires a contract to be signed.

Once a part of the wine may be accumulated in one month, it means that a capital backlog will soon occur. Because of the contract, those suppliers will continue to deliver the raw materials for producing 500,000 bottles of wine on time and in quantity. The food is very difficult to preserve, and Ilian is still at the beach, the air is humid and cannot be stored for a long time. This means that even if their wine cannot be sold, they have to continue to produce wine unless they are compensated for breach of contract.

When his eyes moved, he realized that Dulin handed him a cigarette. He immediately bent over and said thank you, put the cigarette in his mouth, took out a box of matches and lit it for Dulin first, then lit it for himself. He shook his arms, put the matches out, and threw them on the ground and stepped on them again. Rhodes asked carefully, "Mr. Dulin, is this amount... going to be too much?"

He then said: "And if we want to expand the factory, we need more land, at least four times that now. We need warehouses to stack raw materials and various things. If the place is small, it will not work at all. Besides, expanding the production requires recruiting more people..."

Dulin understood what Rhodes meant, one was that he was afraid that he would not sell alcohol and entered a vicious cycle, and the other was that he needed money to put it bluntly.

Looking back at the little land around the winery, Dulin frowned. Whether it is the first area, the fifth area, or the middle area, the vacant land is already very tight. With the start of the construction of the Eighth District of Ilian and more and more people who are optimistic about the city joining here, many vacant land have built houses, and it is basically impossible to buy a large area of ​​vacant land.

If the factory is separated and built in several places, it would be OK, but it would be a lot of trouble. Dulin thought about it and asked Rhodes to go back and prepare first. He would go to the town hall to see if there is a more suitable place.

He didn't say hello when he went to the city hall. Scott was not here. That guy is now watching in District 8 every day. One is to supervise the construction progress, and the other is to coordinate some contradictions. There will definitely be some contradictions or conflicts in District 8, such as if your garbage is dumped on my house, and his project blocks the sewage pipes of someone's house. In short, he needs to do many things.

These things seem to be very small, but they can easily cause big trouble if they are not handled well. In addition, the workers' union people are wandering around the construction site, so there must be a person with a certain degree of strength to sit on the construction site to coordinate all this. The mayor cannot go, so only his confidant Scott went.

When he arrived at the town hall, Dulin informed him of his name, and the mayor immediately met him. As he considered, Dulin has now become the largest funder of the Ilian Town Hall in silence, no doubt about it.

Whether it is his jewelry store, the 20 million project under construction, or his winery, he can provide a large amount of funds to the managers in the Ilian area to support his governance philosophy. At the same time, Dulin can also provide tens of thousands of jobs, making outstanding contributions to the public security and stability of the Ilian area.

The mayors in many places are unknown. It is not because they have no ability or they are unwilling to do something, but because they have no money. For example, building roads seems to be very simple. A phrase can be written on paper with more than a dozen letters, but it requires a lot of money to truly implement it.

For example, Ilian, the mayor will build roads if he wants to build a road, and if he wants to build a park, what should he do if he wants to do the poor and underdeveloped cities?

Just stare at me!

So when he heard that Du Lin had come in person, the mayor also greeted him in person. Du Lin did not receive such good treatment last time. As his industrial layout increased, his status was also rapidly improving.

"I know you're busy, so I'll just tell you a long story." Du Lin did not give further greetings and directly told the purpose of his trip. "I want to buy some land to expand the winery."

The mayor asked in confusion: "Didn't I hear you bought a large piece of land?" Du Lin shook his head and said that it was not enough. The mayor was even more surprised, "How many bottled and barreled wine do you plan to produce every month?"

Du Lin stretched out a hand, and he didn't ask the mayor to guess that it was a move that only idiots would do. "If there are 500,000 bottles of wine and bottles of wine, there is no plan yet."

The mayor raised his eyebrows and smiled a little more on his face. According to the principle of special tax payment currently implemented in the Ilian area, he can make the decision to withdraw a little less tax. Just calculate it at 50% if a bottle of wine earns ten yuan, Dulin must pay a tax of five yuan. Five hundred thousand bottles is two million and five million a month. Dulin pays a month of more than 50% of the total tax revenue in the Ilian area. How could he be unhappy?

He immediately stood up, walked to the sofa group for reception, opened a curtain on the wall, revealing the planning map of the entire Ilian area. He pointed to the map on the wall to Dulin, and said with a smile: "Come on, you can draw any place you want."

Du Lin was not polite, and stood up and walked over. He looked at the planning map carefully. There was no vacant land in the first area, and there was a little bit of vacant land in the second area, but they were all very scattered. The third area was the same as the second area, and there seemed to be a lot of idle land, but it was impossible to effectively connect and utilize it one by one in the east and one by one. There was some land in the fourth area, and there were three vacant lands in the fifth area that seemed to meet his requirements.

Just as Dulin was about to point to the fifth district, he suddenly saw an unexpected open space in the lower half of the map. He asked curiously: "Is this also the jurisdiction of the Ilian area?"

The mayor affirmed Du Lin's question with confidence. Du Lin immediately changed his mind, pointed to the open space and said, "I want this!"

The mayor immediately asked the people from the Land Use Rights Management Office to come, signed an agreement with Dulin, stamped it, and then taught the documents to Dulin, "From today, this land will be your private property. To be honest, I didn't think you would choose this place. Is there any explanation?" He smiled and asked the people from the Land Rights Management Office to leave, and asked this question curiously.

Because Dulin chose not any piece of land on the Ilian land, but chose an island about three kilometers away from the Ilian coastline. The area of ​​the island is too small for development tourism or other projects, and it is a little far from the Ilian coastline. In addition, there is no landscape on the island, just an ordinary island full of vegetation, so it has not been included in the Ilian tourism development agenda.

If Dulin hadn't discovered this place, the mayor would have almost forgotten that he had an island in his hand.

Regarding the mayor's curiosity, Du Lin laughed and praised: "Because it is on the sea!"
