Gossip King - Chapter 1123
Chapter 1123 Su Su Was Ill
Su Su did not think too much. She only raised her wrist and looked at the time before nodding. Behind her were a few wine appraisers.
“How can you purchase it yourself?” Gaoleng found it strange that this winery was internationally famous, and Su Sulai was their winery. Obviously, she did not take their shares, but just came to buy wine.
The boss of the dignified Huantai Group purchased it, which was not in line with her standards, even though this wine company was one of the top in the world. It is a large transit point for a large wine company. It can serve wine like Paris in the first place and is close to the transportation hub. It is convenient for customers to order and export.
It’s just a big staging point.
Paris is a wine-selling city with its own regional dining areas: several areas around it have wine-growing areas, and established wine companies have branches in the suburbs.
“It’s a long story.” Su Su sighed, “Huantai Group has set up a company to purchase all the imported liquor that Huantai Group needs, and also to sell it for an intermediate fee. This company is run by an uncle of mine, but he has lost money on projects that are easily profitable, so I’ll see what the problem is.”
Huan Tai Group is a small company that specializes in purchasing wine around the world, and French wine is one of the most important. This company purchases 80% of its liquor for Huantai and sells 20% to others. This should be a firm that can make a profit without losing money, but it actually loses money.
“Your big family …” Gaoleng shook his head helplessly.
There were more than twenty people in the Su Manor family, including three aunts and six uncles. After the death of Old Su, they all jumped out to earn more money. Human nature was greedy, and Huantai was not a small sum. Taking a little more was a few tens of millions.
Although Su Su didn’t even have the time to bury her parents and immediately returned to Huantai to stabilize the situation, these relatives all had shares in their hands. Some had shares in Huantai Group, while some had shares in branches. Without the management of Old President Su, their wings would have hardened instantly.
Over the past few years, several companies had run their own businesses. Almost all of them had suffered losses. No wonder they had no intention of becoming a company at all. Instead, they just wanted to get more money. Therefore, Su Su made a ruthless move. Some relatives who did not have too many shares in their hands were dismissed by her, and some enterprises under the control of relatives with a little more shares were also sent in by Su Su to control the situation.
All in all, Su Su had cleaned up the mess of the company they controlled, and she should get a good share of the dividend.
“Let’s go.” Su Su pointed at one of the buildings.
The fermentation area was on the ground and underground. They were all packed in oak barrels. As soon as the fermentation area entered, there was a strong smell of oak mixed with the smell of wine. To tell the truth, it was not very pleasant to smell.
“I heard that if you come at night, you can still hear the sound of wine bubbling.” Jian Xiaodan said excitedly. She stretched out her hand to receive the wine handed over by a staff member. She drank a small glass and nodded repeatedly, “It’s delicious.”
“This is white wine. It has just been fermented, so it has an astringent taste.” The wine experts also took the wine and sipped it. Unlike Jian Xiaodan, they only sipped it and nodded. “This wine is not bad. The sunshine must have been very good back then.”
One down and another.
Jian Xiaodan took it. She stretched out her hand and touched the oak barrel that was taller than her. This large barrel was much larger than she had imagined. She looked around and could not see the head. There were oak barrels placed all around.
“You can look on the ladder.” A staff member pointed to the wooden staircase beside her, and she hurriedly drank her wine and climbed up.
After climbing up the wooden staircase, Jian Xiaodan couldn’t help but sigh. A large area of oak barrels almost couldn’t see its head. The big factory really had the demeanor of a big factory. The reserves were truly astonishing.
“This is wine from the Paris Basin. Please try it.” As soon as Jian Xiaodan got off the wooden stairs, the staff handed over a small glass of wine.
“They want to taste dozens of different kinds of wine along the way. Don’t get drunk.” Su Su saw that Jian Xiaoxiao was drinking one cup after another, so she reminded him.
“It’s fine.” Jian Xiaodan didn’t think so. The quilt in her hand was extremely small. At most, it was only one, two, one glass. How drunk could the wine be?
“Wine that hasn’t woken up yet in the fermentation area should not be drunk too much.” Wine appraisal experts also warned, but Jian Xiaodan had already walked forward excitedly. She reached out her hand to touch the oak barrel and took out her phone to take a selfie.
“It doesn’t matter.” It was rare for Gaoleng to see her so relaxed. He laughed and said, “At worst, Xiaodan should have a good rest.”
Su Su didn’t even pick up the wine glass, her hands crossed in front of her chest. She had inspected a similar winery, and she had long since lost the excitement of Jian Xiaodan.
“Aren’t you going to drink some?” Gaoleng took a glass and said, “This is finished wine, not from the fermentation area. Drink some cosmetics.”
“No.” Su Su shook her head decisively. “I have to go to Germany later. I’m tired and tired now. I can’t afford to delay things.” As she spoke, she quickly walked a few steps to follow behind the wine appraisers. As she walked, she began to communicate with them, and her expression was very serious.
Su Su’s devotion to her work state was charming, but it was also worrying.
“Ah.” Old Butler sighed, “I can’t be free. What should I do if I’m exhausted?”
As soon as she finished speaking, Su Su suddenly stopped and supported herself. Without warning, she fell straight to the ground. Gaoleng suddenly strode forward and immediately hugged her. Her face was pale. Her body, which was lying in Gaoleng’s embrace, was trembling slightly. Her legs had no strength to soften at all.
“Susu!” Old Butler ran over anxiously. The other executives were stunned by the sudden scene and surrounded him.
Gaoleng picked up Su Su and hurriedly left. There was a hotel in the winery that entertained VIPs. Just as they arrived at the entrance of the hotel, they saw a group of doctors waiting there. The preliminary diagnosis was that their bodies were too tired. Hypoglycemia caused them to faint and they needed to rest.
“This is only the result of an initial diagnosis. When your body recovers, I suggest you go to the hospital for a detailed examination.” Said the doctor.
“President Gao, please take care of President Su. I will go with them to place an order. This batch will need to import tens of thousands of bottles of good wine. I can’t be careless.” Old Butler looked at Su Su, who was hugged by Gaoleng, and couldn’t help but feel sad. He took off his presbyopia glasses and wiped them and said softly, “Susu, I have to see them place an order. You have a good rest.”
Su Su had been raised by Old Butler since childhood, just like her own granddaughter.
“Old Su, if you knew that you were fainting from exhaustion, and that you had fainted from exhaustion more than once, you would feel heartache.” Old Butler took a deep breath after swallowing for a few seconds. He still had to do his business. Even if Su Su fainted, he still had to order the goods. The huge Huantai had too many things to deal with.
It was precisely because there were too many of them that Su Su had enough strength to spin like a top.
“Su Zheng can’t even order a good item. If it weren’t for this trip specifically for him, President Su could have slept more today.” Su Su’s assistant said angrily. Su Zheng was the boss of the Huantai Group Import Wine Company, Su Su’s uncle.
“The room is on the fifth floor, please.” Said a French attendant, extending his hand to guide the way.
“Please.” Old Butler grabbed the assistant who was about to follow him and looked at Gaoleng with confidence, “We won’t go up. If she wakes up, please let her rest a little longer.”
Jane Xiaodan wanted to follow her. Old Butler grabbed her and winked at her. “Let them stay. We outsiders won’t disturb us anymore,” he whispered.
Outsiders?
After a moment of embarrassment, Jian Xiaodan understood. She smiled appropriately and nodded, “Alright, I’ll go with you to help book the bar. It’s good that I’ll learn it too.”
