Rise of Australia

Chapter 30 Holiday Manor
Butler Hunter's intention was simple. Anyway, the red wine estate only costs about [-] pounds a year, which is a drop in the bucket for Arthur, who is already worth hundreds of millions.

Even if the red wine produced by the winery cannot occupy the European market in recent years, it can barely survive on the Australian market.

Especially when the current situation in Europe is very chaotic, once a war breaks out among European countries, or any unexpected situation occurs, which leads to a decrease in the production of European wineries, it is time for Arthur's winery to seize the market.

No matter how bad it is, by selling low-end red wine, it can also occupy the markets of Australia and even Southeast Asia and East Asia to achieve the purpose of profit.

After all, Europe is now the brightest pearl in the world, and Westernized things are very popular with people from other regions, not to mention wines that are widely sought after by European nobles.

This is the comparison psychology of ordinary people, thinking that foreign things are always better than domestic ones.

"Yes." Arthur nodded, agreeing with Butler Hunter's point of view.

"Your Highness, our winery consists of squares, exhibition halls, wineries, vineyards, storage areas, and underground wine cellars. It is estimated that the maximum output can reach more than 9000 tons per year. According to the capacity of barrels , we can produce a maximum of more than 600 barrels of wine per year. If it is packaged in wine bottles, it can produce more than [-] million bottles." Hunter Butler explained to Arthur with a smile.

Barrel wine barrels are the most common wine barrel packaging in the UK.In the UK, even for relatively low-end wines, the price of a barrel is as high as several pounds, and the slightly more expensive ones are already more than ten pounds.

Even if a barrel of red wine produced by Arthur's winery only sells for five pounds, it can basically maintain a balance of payments.

If you look at it in terms of bottled sales, the profits are even greater.Most of the bottled wines will have high-end names, so the price is more expensive than the barrel wine of the same weight.

Generally speaking, a barrel of wine can sell for ten pounds, but if it is divided into hundreds of 750ml bottles, each bottle can sell for more than three shillings, and the price of wine of the same capacity will directly double more than double.

As far as the current situation is concerned, the maximum production capacity of the winery can fully meet the consumption of Australia. At least before Australia's per capita annual income does not usher in a relatively high growth, Arthur's winery can hoard a large amount of red wine every year.

"Uncle Hunter, when can we drink wine?" Patricia asked impatiently.

Butler Hunter looked at Patricia and Margaery looking forward to it, and said with a smile: "The grapes have to wait until August, plus the winemaking time, I'm afraid the two little highnesses will have to wait until the end of September at least." Only then can we drink the red wine produced by our new winery."

After hearing Butler Hunter's words, Patricia and Margaery couldn't help being disappointed and dissatisfied with the waiting time.

"Okay, isn't there still a lot of red wine brought from England? Those red wines are enough for you to last until October." Princess Louise looked at her two daughters angrily, and said with a smile.

In fact, Patricia and Margaret didn't want to drink new wines, they were just curious about new wines.

The red wine that Arthur brought back from England was all high-end red wine produced in Duke Arthur's winery before, and the total quantity was about [-] bottles.

In addition, besides Arthur, there are only Princess Louise and two younger sisters in the royal family, so the consumption of wine is actually very little, and there are still more than 900 bottles after drinking for several months.

"Oh!" Margaret and Patricia quickly hid behind Arthur when their mother began to teach them a lesson, and replied reluctantly.

"Let's go, let's visit the winery." Arthur rescued the two sisters in time and said with a smile.

Hearing what Arthur said, Margaery and Patricia hurried back to their mother and began to tour the entire manor.

It has to be said that the geographical environment of the entire winery is very advantageous. Sitting on the mountain and looking at the water, the back of the winery is a hill, with plenty of sunlight, which is more suitable for the growth of vines.

There is a clear river in front of the winery, passing through the square in front of the winery.The river is so clear that you can occasionally see groups of fish swimming by.

Such a superior geographical environment is very suitable for building a winery, even a holiday estate.

Although it was already summer, the cool wind blowing and the sound of the stream in his ears made Arthur feel a little lingering.

"Your Highness, I purposely built a small manor in the winery. It is close to our fruit tree planting area, and there is a creek in front of it. It seems that it is already summer, and although the government affairs building is very spacious, it is very hot. In my opinion, Your Highness, please temporarily You can come to live in the manor, first to avoid the summer heat, and second, to make the two little highnesses not so boring." Butler Hunter suggested.

When selecting the site for the winery, Butler Hunter noticed this very superior geographical environment.

Backed by mountains and water, and behind it is a small piece of basin bottom, surrounded by mountains on three sides and water on one side, it looks like a perfect address for a holiday estate.

Therefore, Butler Hunter decided on his own initiative, planned the best piece of land inside the winery, and built a small estate for Arthur and the royal family.

Although the area of ​​the manor is small, its geographical location and natural environment are absolutely excellent, and it is a good place to escape the heat in summer.

Seeing the excitement in the eyes of the two younger sisters, Arthur smiled and said, "Has the manor been successfully built?"

"Of course, Your Highness." Butler Hunter nodded, and said, "The manor was built together with the winery. The manor has been built so far. You only need to move the furniture in and you can move in."

"Let's go and have a look." Arthur also became interested and said with a smile.

In the major European monarchy countries, the royal family has its own private estate.Even some royal families with relatively large rights often own multiple or even more than ten private manors.

The role of these manors is to provide temporary residence, travel and rest for the royal family when the palace is not comfortable.

Take the British royal family as an example. Queen Victoria has countless manors, among which the more famous ones include Balmoral Castle, Buckingham Palace, Windsor Castle, Holyrood Palace, Clarence Palace, Kensington Palace, St. Luxury manors such as James Palace, Hampton Palace, Sandringham Manor, and even the annual vacation destination are difficult to choose.

But so far, the Australian royal family has only one residence, the National Government Building, which is very shabby and leaky. This is why Hunter, who is the royal housekeeper, wants to build a manor here.
