Collection of Gods

Chapter 798 Two choices
Tang Yuan looked at the Thai king's heartfelt smile and suddenly felt more confident that he could take away the copy of Zen Master Biancai.

It is obvious that the King of Thailand is very satisfied with the effect of the Royal Wine and has an extremely strong demand for it. Although the King of Thailand did not show it, the fact that the other party sent someone to invite him here and come to negotiate with him in person is enough to explain many problems.

Next, Tang Yuan only needs to bargain with the King of Thailand step by step. As long as the King of Thailand’s demands are not too excessive, Tang Yuan can choose to accept them. After all, this price is not worth mentioning compared to the reward after completing the five-star mission.

"King of Thailand, you should have heard of Moonlight Wine, right?"

Tang Yuan spoke again and asked the King of Thailand.

"Of course I have heard of it."

The King of Thailand nodded slightly and glanced at Xie Chengrun: "The father of the Xie family boy once gave me two bottles of Yuehua wine."

"Since you know Yuehua Wine, you should know that there are three types of wines in Yuehua Wine, namely the regular version of Yuehua Fine Wine, the collection version of Yuehua Aged Wine, and the collection version of Yuehua Treasure Wine. The Royal Wine I gave you yesterday is not among them."

"Because this wine was just brewed by our winery last month. Its status in the Yuehua wine series is far higher than the collector's edition Yuehua rare wine. Currently, no bottle of the Royal Wine has been released to the market. The jar of Royal Wine I gave you yesterday is the world's first jar of Royal Wine."

Tang Yuan smiled and briefly introduced the origin and status of this royal wine to the King of Thailand. Then he asked another question: "King of Thailand, do you know why the royal wine is so precious?"

"Why?"

The King of Thailand probably guessed some of the reasons.

"Because the materials for brewing royal wine are too rare."

"Yuehua Niang is a medicinal wine. To brew Yuehua Niang, a large number of precious Chinese herbs are needed as materials. From the beginning of Yuehua Niang, there are requirements for the age of these precious Chinese herbs. Yuehua Niang requires that all Chinese herbs be aged for more than ten years, and Yuehua Zhenniang requires more than twenty years."

"As for the ingredients for the Royal Wine, the minimum requirement for all Chinese herbs is that they are more than 40 years old. And the Chinese herbs we need to brew Yuehua Wine number in the dozens. You can imagine how difficult it is to collect all the ingredients for the Royal Wine."

"Since the beginning of this year, I sent people to travel across most of China. It took me nearly a year to barely collect all the materials. Then we used up all of them and finally brewed more than 200 kilograms of Wangjiu."

Tang Yuan's previous words were all factual, but he exaggerated a little bit in the last statement. It did take a lot of effort to collect all the materials for brewing Wangjiu, but Chinese medicine, as China's national medicine, has a long history of thousands of years, and the cultivation of Chinese herbal medicines has never been interrupted since ancient times.

There are certainly some Chinese herbal medicines that are very old, but most of them are in the hands of traditional Chinese medicine families with a long tradition, or in the hands of large medical research institutions. If you want to buy the materials back from these people, the resistance is quite great.

"King of Thailand, I have brewed more than 200 kilograms of royal wine in total."

"To show my sincerity, I will directly offer you 200 kilograms of Royal Wine. This can be said to be the limit of my ability. If I auction these 200 kilograms of Royal Wine to the whole world in the form of an auction, I think it should be easy to sell it for 200 million RMB."

"And if the copy of Master Biancai in your hand were to be auctioned at an auction house, its final transaction price would most likely be around 200 million RMB, so I think the price I offered is already very sincere."

"Besides, even if you want more, I don't have any extra Royal Wine to give you. Two hundred kilograms of Royal Wine is my all-in offer."

At the end, Tang Yuan shrugged, indicating that he really was powerless.

The reasons Tang Yuan gave were very sufficient. The King of Thailand was silent for a moment. He knew that what Tang Yuan said was most likely true. If something like Wang Jiu could be mass-produced, relying on the magical effects of Wang Jiu, the other party could establish an extremely large business empire on a global scale in a matter of minutes, and even surpassing China's Moutai Group would not be a dream.

However, although it was clear, the two sides were now in business, and the King of Thailand definitely wanted to gain more benefits for himself. However, the attitude shown by Tang Yuan was indeed very sincere, and for a moment he didn't know how to start the conversation.

When the living room suddenly became quiet, Xie Chengrun and Lin Xingwan subconsciously held their breath, feeling that the atmosphere had become somewhat depressing. Only Tang Yuan still maintained a natural expression and drank his tea by himself.

The originally boiling hot tea had become lukewarm due to the conversation. Tang Yuan drank the expensive tea in just two sips. He then took the initiative to speak and broke the silence by asking the King of Thailand, "King of Thailand, excuse me, you want to stockpile so much royal wine. Do you want to use it yourself or keep it for collection?" "Of course, for my own use."

The King of Thailand answered very frankly.

"Ok."

"King of Thailand, if your reason for hoarding the royal wine is for your own use."

Tang Yuan nodded slightly and smiled, "Then I have another trading plan. How about you listen to it?"

"Another deal?"

The Thai king's expression changed slightly, and he showed some interest: "Tell me about it."

Upon hearing this, Tang Yuan did not keep the audience in suspense and directly said, "Another transaction plan is that I will reduce the 200 kilograms of royal wine I originally offered you to 100 kilograms of royal wine. This 100 kilograms of royal wine will be delivered in one go, and I will airfreight it to you from China."

"and then?"

The King of Thailand remained calm and expressionless. He knew that Tang Yuan must have other plans after saying this.

"Then I will directly contract your royal wine for the next 18 years. I will supply you with 20 kilograms of it for free every year. However, the prerequisite is that you have to provide the materials yourself. We are only responsible for brewing it for you."

Tang Yuan smiled brightly and answered readily.

"Twenty pounds per year?"

“I bring my own materials?”

After the King of Thailand heard the whole story of Tang Yuan's transaction plan, he narrowed his eyes slightly and began to calculate quickly in his mind.

It sounds like this transaction plan is indeed better than the previous one. Although the amount of Wangjiu delivered in the first time is exactly half less, 20 kilograms of Wangjiu can be obtained for free every year in the future.

The total amount accumulated over these eighteen years is a total of 360 kilograms of royal wine!

Together with the 100 kilograms of royal wine delivered for the first time, the total is 460 kilograms of royal wine, which is more than double the previous transaction plan.

It sounds very tempting indeed, as it would allow the King of Thailand to live without any worries until he is 85 years old. However, the King of Thailand has not forgotten that the prerequisite for obtaining this long-term wine ticket is that he can provide the materials himself.

In other words, if he cannot find the necessary materials for brewing Wang Liquor in the future, then this long-term wine ticket will be at risk of running out of supply at any time. And Tang Yuan has just made it very clear that it is extremely difficult to collect all the materials for brewing Wang Liquor.

On one side is two hundred kilograms of Wangjiu, and on the other side is a long-term wine ticket.

The former has low returns and small risks, while the latter has high returns and high risks.

Faced with the choice question given by Tang Yuan, the King of Thailand was a little undecided...
