Chapter 11 Sales Channels
Jon thought to himself, are there really these five major families in the United States in this world? Or maybe he was reborn in the world of the movie "The Godfather".
George wanted to understand this immediately. He spoke directly to Pombo: "Uncle Eisen, you just mentioned the Corleone family. Do you know that besides the Corleone family, there are other families?"
Pang Bo glanced at Jon and thought it was a child's curiosity about that kind of society, so he replied: "Yes, there are several other families, but I haven't learned about them because I'm not interested."
During the subsequent conversation between Pombo and Ryan, George did not join in, but was thinking about his own affairs.
First of all, it is not completely certain that this is the world of the movie "The Godfather". But what is certain is that this world also belongs to Italian families.
And are there many Italians in the United States? After watching that movie in his previous life, George went out of his way to learn that only after 1870, the wave of immigrants to the United States began. Between 1880 and 1914, more than 4 million Italians immigrated to the United States.
The United States. Most of the immigrants at this time came from southern Italy and Sicily, and most of them were poor farmers.
About 50% of the Italians who immigrated to the United States on a large scale are employed as workers. In addition, many are engaged in technical jobs such as sailors, tailors, masons, shoemakers and barbers, which shows that there is a large population at the bottom.
Moreover, Italians attach great importance to family and family ties, which can be seen from the movie.
When George thought of this, he immediately thought of the business that he had always wanted to do, but had no sales network and could not do it, smuggling alcohol.
In fact, it is not important whether it is the world of "The Godfather", what is important is that there is a group of people like this. Even if the current Corleone is not the Corleone in the movie, George believes that he will become more prosperous than that Corleone.
family.
So after dinner, Pombo took them back to the hotel. When he was about to leave, George stopped him and said, "Uncle Aisen, can I meet your cousin?"
This question made Pangbo unable to react for a moment. He thought for a while before returning to: "George, can I know what it is?"
Then the three of them returned to the car. George looked at Ryan and Pangbo before saying: "I have stable shipping channels and can safely transport foreign wine to the country. However, I need sales channels."
After listening, Ryan looked at George and said nothing.
Pangbo glanced at Ryan, and when he saw that he didn't speak, he asked George directly: "George, do you know what you are talking about?"
"Of course I know." George said affirmatively.
Pang Bo was silent for a while and said: "Let me think about it."
"Okay, if you're in trouble, you can just give me the Corleone family's contact information."
"I understand. I will bring them back after I consider returning the money."
After the three said goodbye to each other, Pang Bo drove away from the hotel.
Without making George and the others wait any longer, Pombo invited George and Ryan to his home the next night.
That night, George chose two red wines and went to Pombo's house with Ryan.
Seeing the red wine that George brought, Pangbo's eyes lit up slightly and he invited them into the house.
George also saw three other people in the living room. After Pangbo introduced him, one was his cousin who also had the surname Corleone, and the other was the leader of the Corleone family here and the elder brother of his cousin's family.
, named Maury Corleone. There was another one whom Pangbo didn’t introduce. George estimated that he should be the gunman, so he didn’t ask.
When the two Corleone family members saw the red wine that George brought, their eyes lit up.
After Pang Bo opened the wine, he invited everyone to dine. The wine they drank was another white wine. During the meal, everyone only talked about gossip and did not talk about wine-related topics.
However, George still asked Morrie during the meal if there was anyone named Sunni in their family. Because it would be impolite to directly ask the name of the patriarch of their family. If he asked if there was anyone named Vito Corleone,
It's not a bad thing. If it is the name of "The Godfather", it is tantamount to provocation.
Therefore, it is very appropriate for George to use Sonny Corleone to test. Sure enough, there is this person, and he is the son of the "Godfather".
After listening to Mori's words, George secretly thought that indeed, there were five major families here. However, he was even more fortunate that he had found a reliable partner.
George, who has watched the movie, knows that the Corleone family is a very united family and is also very powerful. When the old lady was not revealed in "The Godfather", it can be said that the Corleone family is the head of the five major families. And "
Although "The Godfather" is engaged in illegal business, he also protects the poor people, and more importantly, he never touches white bread.
In the movie, it is precisely because the "godfather" is old, showing signs of fatigue, and unwilling to help other families sell money that he causes other families to besiege him.
After dinner, several people came to the living room and sat on the sofa. Pangbo brought some red wine glasses and poured a little of the sobered red wine into several glasses. After sharing it with several people, no one spoke.
After slowly shaking the red wine in the glass and tasting a glass of red wine, Pang Bo's cousin poured it for everyone again.
This time Pang Bo spoke first: "George, I have told Morrie about your idea, and Morrie and the others are very interested."
George looked at Morrie and said, "Morrie, what do you mean?"
"Of course I'm also very interested in your business, but I don't know how much wine you can provide?" Morrie chuckled.
"Haha, Morrie, I am actually interested in your entire Corleone family. However, this is the first time we have met, in order to build mutual trust. Let's just say a quantity."
"What do you mean?"
"You name a certain quantity, and I won't charge you any deposit for the time being. After ten days, I'll let you see the wine. You'll pay when you're satisfied." George said, shaking his wine glass.
When George said this, everyone in the room, including Ryan, looked at him.
At this time, Pangbo seemed to be afraid that George was talking too much, so he wanted to say something, but was stopped by Ryan, who was sitting opposite, shaking his head.
"Really? Are you kidding?" Morrie said seriously.
"Haha, what are you afraid of? I told you, you tell me the quantity and you will pay after you see the wine."
"Hahaha, awesome, courageous, okay, then I want five thousand bottles, any wine will do." Mori looked at Pang Bo and said.
George understood that these 5,000 bottles were not their monthly sales volume at all, it was enough for a week. As for why there was such a small amount, it was simply because of Pang Bo's face that he came up with such a number.
George looked at Pombo, smiled, and then looked at Mori and laughed: "Okay, let's go with the number you said."
The two raised their wine glasses, clinked them, drank the wine in one gulp, and laughed at the same time.
Others also raised their glasses and finished the wine together.
In fact, this game had already started when they entered the door. Originally, Morry and the others were able to come tonight because of Pangbo's favor, and the two bottles of red wine that George chose were also a sign of his strength. Because Morry would definitely
Ask Pombo about George's background and find out that George is just a student and has just arrived in Washington. It is not an easy thing for them to buy two bottles of good red wine here.
So George first used two bottles of red wine to dispel their contempt, and then further showed his strength with an order that was useless to take any risks. George did not go too far and directly said that he wanted to see the "godfather". Such ridiculous words could not be tolerated by George.
It’s shameless to say that a student boy who can’t even deal with the little boss can’t get in front of the “godfather”.
Morrie had the Corleone family as his backer. After seeing George's intentions, he still took a step back and only asked for five thousand bottles of wine. This meant that as long as it was wine, quality was not required. In this case, no matter the quantity,
They still left enough room for George in terms of quality. Of course, if George really only produced 5,000 bottles of low-quality wine, then they would only regard George as a regional supplier. Meet the "Godfather" haha,
Does not exist.
Both parties understood what the other party meant and reached a preliminary consensus, so they drank the glass of wine happily. Next came the chat session. George and the two sat for a while, and then the person who did not introduce his name
They were sent back to the hotel.
After returning to the hotel, Ryan followed George into the room and said, "Do you need me to do anything?"
When George entered, I took out a bottle of bourbon from it. After two glasses, I handed one glass to Ryan, and then said: "No need for the time being, but I plan to ask the teacher to build a winery in Canada, and wait for the teacher's arrangements.
After this is done, I would like to ask you to go over and look at it for me. The profit in this area is too great, and I don’t trust other people."
Ryan looked at the wine bottles on the table and nodded: "No problem, let me know after you make arrangements."
After saying that, he directly picked up the entire bottle of bourbon on the table, turned around and left George's room.
George looked at the bourbon in his hand, smiled and said nothing.
After closing the doors and windows, George divided into ten avatars to practice the bone armor formation of corpse veins. Many things in the hotel are not convenient to make too much noise.
George discovered that bloodline was different from skills. As soon as the skill was introduced into his consciousness, George learned it directly. After a little practice on both sides, he could completely master it. But bloodline was different. The bone armor formed at first was ugly and irregular.
If you want to make a detailed analogy, for example, it is very slow to form the golden version of the Holy Cloth. It cannot be formed at all at the beginning. After practicing, it is gradually possible, but the speed is very slow and impractical in actual combat. It was formed after a little practice.
The speed has become faster, and even the wings that can only be used as shields can be unfolded.
So this may be a development process, so George would summon multiple shadow clones and practice every night. Unfortunately, the room was still too small and he could only summon ten.
As for George's real body, after washing up, he sat in front of the window and thought about his plans.
George still has about $450,000 in his account. There are still three months left before the economic crisis in the summer. He will soon go to Canada to buy a winery. There is no news about the patent there, and he also wants to transfer the patent.
It takes a lot of money to get it in hand. Therefore, it is necessary to start selling wine as soon as possible.
After thinking for a while, he turned around and asked a shadow clone to start using the transformation technique. Of course, it was not to become a woman, George was not that perverted.
The owl he transformed into a clone was an owl. Thanks to the owl last time, he now knew the structure of the owl very well. So George planned to turn himself into an owl and fly to Canada. In order to make money, George was also crazy.
As for whether the transformation technique can be changed, of course it can. In the anime, Naruto turns himself into a shuriken and throws it out, and Itachi's crow clone. It's not about whether it can be done, the key is to see the proficiency.
George's skill proficiency is at full level, so let the shadow clone change first to see if it is ugly or not. You know, being handsome lasts a lifetime.
George found that after the shadow clone turned into an owl, he could not see any difference in appearance, so he made the clone fly twice in the room before disbanding it and pouring all his experience into it.
Then he changed his clothes and dispersed the other clones, leaving only one in the room to deal with the others instead of the main body. However, he did not let this clone idle, he let this clone continue to "create" new novels.
In this way, there is a good reason to lock oneself in the room all day long. Anyway, the consciousness is the same and any emergency can be dealt with in time. Unfortunately, it would be perfect if the clones could also share the chaotic space. Everything
Everything can be done separately.
He shook his head, people, don't push yourself too far. Then he used the transformation technique to turn into an owl and flew out of the window.
George first flew to a high place, identified the direction, and then flew directly to the north. After leaving Washington, it didn't take long for George to see a very large forest in front of him. George landed, directly summoned eleven clones, and arranged ten
The clone was practicing corpse bone pulse in the forest, and another one was arranged to catch a sparrow.
After getting familiar with the structure of the sparrow, the main body turned the clone into an owl and the main body into a sparrow. Haha, don’t you already have this mount and fly to Canada by yourself? It doesn’t exist!
Chapter completed!
