After leaving the banquet hall, Baguda and Huogui hurried to Fengzhi Manor and excitedly reported to Lu Feng, "Your Excellency, the Dream Wine this time is amazing! You didn't see how those wealthy people lost their composure, and the bosses of the wine distribution companies were extremely anxious. I kept them in suspense as you instructed, and then I came back to report to you."
"Well, try this wine." Lu Feng naturally knew how those people would react after drinking Huimeng wine. After all, he was the first to know the effect of this wine.
Hadona, who was following nearby, immediately translated Lu Feng's words to Baguda.
Baguda and Huo Gui immediately looked at the wine in front of Lu Feng.
"Governor, is this also Dream-Returning Wine?"
"Yeah!" Lu Feng nodded.
It is indeed Huimeng wine.
However, these are all ordinary Huimeng wine after being diluted with other alcohols.
One to two, one bottle becomes two bottles.
Huimeng wine is a good wine, and there are only two levels of brewing. One is made by soaking ordinary materials and the finished product can be produced in three days, and the other is a fine product that is carefully brewed and takes a long time.
This would be too monotonous to sell, and it would be difficult to set a price.
The price is too high, most people can’t afford it and are reluctant to buy it.
The price is too low, and when the fine wine is not brewed, it seems to be of low quality.
Therefore, the price is difficult to control.
Only then did he think of continuing to add wine. The note was that after continuing to add wine, the effect of Dream-Returning Wine would still exist, but the dispersion of special elements would be reduced, and the effect would be even smaller.
This way, low-grade Huimeng wine can be produced, and ordinary wine will become high-grade. In the future, fine wine will be brewed as a collector's edition.
Baguda and Huogui didn't ask any more questions. They picked up the Huimeng wine in the two cups and started drinking.
After a moment, the two of them fell into the mood of returning to their dreams.
When the two men recovered, Baguda said, "Governor, this wine is much weaker than the one given to those at the banquet."
Lu Feng nodded and said, "This is a blended wine. From now on, this wine will be sold as ordinary wine. The normal wine will be sold as high-end wine, supplied to wealthy people or nightclubs like bars!"
"As for the other fine brew, it will be considered a collector's item after it's brewed. The quantity will be limited and sold only to the wealthy. And then those wealthy people will be crazy about it."
This strategy is also the simplest hunger marketing, and it is also a way to increase your status.
Baguda, having been president before, naturally understood this principle. He then continued, "Your Excellency, the materials procured from various places have gradually arrived, and employees have been gradually recruited, so Xuanfeng Winery can now begin production."
"The other issue is the price of purchasing alcohol and employee wages. This time, the Dream Wine is so amazing, it will definitely sell well and we should be able to make money."
"So, should we raise the price we pay for alcoholic beverages? That way, more people will be making wine, and we can buy more."
"There's also the issue of employee wages. If their wages increase, they'll work harder, which is beneficial."
He obviously wants to gain benefits for the people, no matter how much he can gain, as long as he can gain some.
Lu Feng naturally understood that if you want a horse to run, you must let it eat grass, so he asked: "How much is the current purchase price per kilogram of wine, and how much is the monthly salary of the employees?"
Baguda immediately replied: "The alcohol is 100 yuan per catty, and the employee salary is yuan per month."
"So low?" Lu Feng asked in astonishment, "Tell me about your plan. How much do you plan to increase the purchase price of alcoholic beverages and the salary of employees?"
What Baguda was talking about was naturally the Xuanfeng Coin.
The exchange rate with Longguo is 10:1, so 100 yuan is equal to 10 Longguo currency, and 100 yuan is equal to 1,000 Longguo currency.
At this price in the country, we can only say that the wine is cheap and the labor is also cheap.
You should know that the strong liquor used to make Huimeng wine is already the best liquor in the Xuanfeng Alliance. In Longguo, the cheapest strong liquor costs 30 yuan per catty, which is equivalent to 300 Xuanfeng coins per catty. The slightly better ones cost 100 yuan per catty, which is equivalent to 1,000 Xuanfeng coins.
Moreover, the salary at the winery was only 1,000 Dragon Country coins a month.
This is simply too cheap to be cheap.
In China, even dogs wouldn't do a job with this kind of salary. Winery employees should get at least 5,000 yuan. If it's lower, young people won't do it because it's too hot and tiring.
Better wineries pay higher wages.
The salary of employees in a winery of a company like Moutai is basically around . Naturally, this kind of company is also an exception and cannot be used as a reference.
This is enough to illustrate the poverty of the people in the Xuanfeng Alliance.
Baguda immediately said, "Your Excellency, Governor, I intend to increase the price of wine by 50 Xuanfeng coins and the employees' wages by 5,000 Xuanfeng coins."
"So little?" Lu Feng was stunned.
In China, doesn’t this mean adding 5 yuan to the alcohol bill and 500 yuan to the salary, which is 1,500 yuan a month?
This price is still extremely low.
This made Baguda stunned: "Little?"
He was sure that with such a big price increase, the winemakers and factory employees would be excited.
Then, Baguda asked, "Governor, how much should we increase the fee specifically?"
Lu Feng thought for a moment and said, "The price of this wine will be raised to 500 Xuanfeng coins per kilogram! The winery employees' wages will be raised to 50,000 Xuanfeng coins per month."
This is equivalent to 50 yuan per pound of strong liquor in China, or 5,000 yuan a month's salary.
in the country, this is still just a normal price and a relatively low salary.
But when Baguda heard this, his jaw dropped. He said in shock, "Governor, such a huge increase? Can the winery afford it? We also need to purchase materials, which costs money."
