I have a paradise

Chapter 687 Taoyuan Winery (2)

There are hundreds of wineries in Napa Valley. Every year when the grapes are ripe, many grape pickers are temporarily hired here. After all, dozens of acres of grapes are only exhausted by the workers of the winery and they cannot finish picking them in the prescribed time. .

Wang Yi’s Taoyuan Winery is close to the outskirts of Napa Valley. The location is not the best, but the area is the largest, covering a full 110 acres.This time, in order to pick grapes and make wine in time, Old John hired fifty pickers at a price of twenty dollars an hour.

This price is already high here in Napa Valley, after all, the hourly salary in Los Angeles is only $15.Because of the violent enforcement of the law by the police in the Lighthouse Country, political correctness in the Lighthouse Country spread to various industries during this period.

For example, every Hollywood movie must have black people in it, and the image of black people should be positive. Before the 1970s, the image of black people in Hollywood movies were generally gangsters, villains, thugs and the like, but now this During the period, roles such as gangsters, addicts, villains and thugs became Chinese.

Some people say that you want to win the best film award in Hollywood. It’s very simple, as long as your movie includes black people, peers, the poor, children, the white class, and white people’s understanding of black people. , Then the chance of winning this film is as high as 90%.

The superhero series of movies are very popular in Beacon, but you can't think that as one of the super British movies, "Black Panther" actually won the Oscar nomination for Best Picture.

In terms of commercial films alone, Black Panther is not the best, it is just barely qualified. The plot is flawed and the world view is unreasonable. In other words, the best film of the year, the only thing that can be called this is The Black Panther is the black star, and the Black Panther is the first super-British star of the black protagonist. The others have no advantage.

But it was just such a popcorn movie that was nominated for Best Picture at the Academy Awards.Hollywood is increasingly emphasizing political correctness.The most ironic thing in this movie is Wakanda, this magical African country, if in terms of science and technology, a country can be called the strongest on earth, if there really is such a country, comic It is estimated that the lighthouse country does not exist in the Wei movie.

What’s more interesting is that just in 18 years, the lighthouse country had trade with this African Wakanda. The Corruption’s "Daily Mail" reported on December 19 that the lighthouse country’s Ministry of Agriculture exposed Wakanda. It is real. On the website of the Ministry of Agriculture, the Lighthouse Country announced their trading partners this year.

Among them is the name Wakanda, and there is also a tariff code. The goods used as trade are dairy products, tobacco and alcohol.

There is also a list of trades that Wakanda has only seen with the lighthouse country.Later, these things were deleted by the Ministry of Agriculture. This should be due to trade differences between them.

Wang Yi sent people to understand the salary standard here in Napa Valley Manor. The highest salary here is white people. Most of these people are in technical positions and pay social security. Of course, some of them are engaged in manual labor, such as pruning vines. Catch insects, conservation and so on.

But even for the same job, the salary standard is different. The highest is naturally white, and the lowest is Chinese and those illegal immigrants.The Chinese do the most work here but the wages are indeed the lowest, and most of them do not have social security.

In comparison, blacks are much more comfortable. There is even an unspoken rule here. Every winery must hire blacks, and the proportion of blacks cannot be the lowest.

Wang Yi has only one requirement for the recruitment of temporary workers at the winery, and that is to treat them equally.He didn't intend to get used to it whether it was white or black.

"Hold the bottom, and then cut here... Don't cut it crookedly, then put the cut out and put it in this box... Do you understand?" Standing under the vines in the vineyard, Old John looked serious. Standing by Wang Yi's side, he told him the precautions.

When he came to the winery, Wang Yi specially came to experience picking grapes personally. He planned to use the grapes he picked to make a barrel of wine.As time passed by September, more than 90% of the grapes in the estate had matured.

Now the winery originally had a dozen employees, plus temporary workers and several winemakers that Wang Yi had previously hired from the system, all preparing for winemaking.

"Cut here, root here, not vines, damn, do you want to let it grow grapes next year? You can't cut it here, cut this!" Old John pointed at a somewhat clumsy temporary worker Shouted.

After mentoring the newcomer, Old John continued to patrol the surroundings.

"Everyone has been busy all morning. Let's get tired. Take a break." Wang Yi put a bunch of full-grained Cabernet Sauvignon grapes in a basket beside him.

"Sir, it's not time to rest yet..." Old John said with some embarrassment as he walked past, "We still have so many grapes to pick, which will make us miss the best time to make wine."

"It's okay." Wang Yi smiled and patted Old John's arm. This somewhat stubborn old white man has a obsession with brewing a classic wine. "Everyone is tired and it is not efficient to continue working. It is better to rest. Continue again. As for the time, don’t worry, I will let my bodyguards help.”

Seeing Wang Yi's insistence, Old John could only agree. Soon these grape pickers happily ran to the nearby cold drink cart and picked up the iced drink and drank it.

Although it has entered September, the weather in California is still very hot, and outdoor work in this weather is still very hard.Old John deliberately prepared a lot of iced drinks. Wang Yi picked up a double cup of iced coffee from the coffee machine, handed it to Nie Wei, and took a sip.

"Sir, our grape harvest this year is the largest in the past few years, and the quality is also good." Old John said happily with a glass of iced coffee.

Wang Yi nodded looking at the bunches of gem-like grapes on the vines in the manor, and handed the quilt to Nie Wei. Wang Yi picked one from the bunch of grapes and put it in his mouth.

Compared with ordinary grapes, this kind of grape gives Wang Yi the feeling that it is much sweeter than ordinary grapes and has a strong fragrance.The only problem is that the thick skin of this grape is pitiful and the flesh is small, and when chewing hard, it feels sour.

Unlike what is said on the Internet, the grapes used for making wine taste bad and are totally inedible.On the contrary, the taste of these grapes is more delicious than ordinary grapes. In fact, this is also normal. You must know that delicious and healthy grapes are the prerequisite for making good wine.
