Chapter 2559: Buddha’s Belly wineTranslator: 549690339
Just like that day when he was running under the setting sun, Secretary Xu’s mouth was wide open, and he could definitely swallow a goose egg. He couldn’t help but be too surprised.
Although Secretary Xu didn’t seem to have a strong presence, his personal strength couldn’t be underestimated. Although his main job was to help President Yan with all kinds of miscellaneous matters, his most important role was to help President Yan brew wine.
He was basically President Yan’s assistant. In recent years, he had helped President Yan with many things. He was definitely a master winemaker and had a good reputation in the wine-making industry.
Secretary Xu had always been proud of himself for being able to achieve such an achievement in his forties, which was better than the skills of President Yan’s serious disciples.
However, just when Secretary Xu had suffered the strongest blow in his life and couldn’t be proud of himself, someone younger than him with greater achievements appeared like a tornado. The key was that he still thought that he wasn’t good enough. Just tell me, if this wasn’t a blow, what else could be considered a blow?
Life was so difficult, and for the first time, Secretary Xu was beaten by reality.
President Yan’s expression didn’t change much. Before he came here, he had learned about Yuan Zhou’s character and knew that he was a young man with both talent and hard work. He was definitely a role model for the younger generation to learn from.
He wasn’t very surprised when he heard Yuan Zhou say that. On the contrary, he felt it was within his expectations. He looked at Yuan Zhou’s sincere manner and thought for a while,””Since you think so, I’ll keep this position for you. Don’t reject it when you think you can do it.”
Anyway, President Yan’s ultimate goal was to hope that this young man, who had both talent and hard work, could bring new vitality to the wine-making industry. As for whether it would happen sooner or later, with Yuan Zhou’s speed, he indicated that he was still quite strong and should be able to see it.
“Alright, President Yan.” Yuan Zhou thought for a while and then agreed....
It was still the same saying that it was not wise to work behind closed doors. He could only improve by communicating with the top people in the same industry. Even if he was already standing on the shoulders of a giant, he still needed to remain humble.
Hearing Yuan Zhou’s agreement, President Yan’s face broke out into a big smile like a blooming chrysanthemum.
At this time, Secretary Xu came back to his senses and said,”no wonder boss Yuan has such high achievements in cooking, wine-making, and carving. It seems that I have to learn more. I shouldn’t be complacent and complacent.”
When Secretary Xu took over the position of President Yan and led China’s winemaking industry to a new height, he still had a fresh memory of what Yuan Zhou said and did at that moment. That was also what he had been asking himself to do.
The refreshing taste of the plum blossom wine, along with the elegant fragrance of the plum, conquered everyone present. Perhaps some people didn’t like the wine brewed with flowers and felt that only wine with a high degree of alcohol had a taste. However, they had to admit that this plum blossom wine was indeed an unprecedented innovative wine, and it was worthy of being the first to appear in the exchange meeting.
After the plum blossom wine, the Buddha Belly wine was served next.
As the name suggested, the Buddha Belly wine was naturally related to the Buddha Belly bamboo. The wine pots that were brought up were all carved from Old olive-yellow Buddha Belly bamboo.
Naturally, they were carved by Yuan Zhou himself. Buddha’s Belly bamboo was already very beautiful. With the addition of Yuan Zhou’s carpentry, each of them looked like a real Maitreya Buddha, looking at the human world with a smile.
“This is a kind of wine with health care function that I developed by myself according to the brewing method of the bamboo leaf green wine. I hope that everyone can taste it and raise any opinions.” Yuan Zhou introduced.
Unlike the monkey wine, which only had one type of wine, Yuan Zhou would introduce each of the five types of wine served today. Although he wouldn’t introduce them in detail, he could still introduce their names and their approximate ages. Therefore, he was still quite busy.
The Buddha Belly wine was a trial product that Yuan Zhou wanted to brew a different kind of green bamboo leaf wine when he was brewing the monkey wine.
It was brewed with the tender leaves of Buddha’s Belly bamboo as the main ingredient and more than a dozen precious Chinese medicinal herbs. It had the effect of clearing one’s heart and relieving one’s troubles. So far, this was the first batch of Buddha’s Belly wine to be ready. Therefore, it had not been on the wine list of the small taverns. It was just nice to be used as a new wine to exchange.
Upon hearing that it was a wine that they had never heard of before, everyone subconsciously stretched their necks to see if there was any difference between this wine and the famous green bamboo leaf.
All of a sudden, the meeting place became exceptionally lively. Of course, Wu Hai’s place was even livelier. The reason was that after Diaz had finished the plum blossom wine, he felt a little hungry and planned to eat something to fill his stomach before drinking other wine.
As Spaniards, Diaz’s favorite wine was naturally the Spanish National Wine, Sherry.
His favorite was 100% Pedro-jimenes, a sweet-type Shellie made from dried Pedro-jimenes grapes. It was the best wine for dessert and toasting. It would be perfect if there was a piece of cheese.
After drinking the fragrant plum wine, Diaz was used to looking for snacks to eat. He had seen the table full of snacks earlier. Although he had only taken a quick glance, he had noticed the exquisite and beautiful appearance.
But now, looking at the empty plates on the table and the few colorful pastries piled on the middle plate, Dyas really raised his hand to rub his forehead. He wondered if he was drunk and hallucinating because he had never drunk Chinese wine before. The table was full ten minutes ago, but how did it become so small?
This scene was really too surprising. Of course, it was also because Diaz wasn’t calm enough. If it wasn’t for the sake of Yuan Zhou’s face, Wu Hai indicated that the table could be cleared completely and there was no need to worry about him still having his heart on the table.
Dyas’s slightly exaggerated actions attracted the attention of the people at his table. Although they were standing in twos and threes not far from the long table, because each table was separated, they naturally stood with their own table as the axis. Thus, it was easy to see and hear Dyas’s words and expressions.
Then, all the 10 people at the table became silent except for Wu Hai and Mao Xiong. They were just having a drink. How did the table become like this?
Moreover, there were no signs of being ransacked. The plates were clean, the table was neat, and even the remaining desserts were arranged neatly as if they had not been touched. If it were not for the color and shape of the desserts, they would have thought that there was only one plate.
Wu Hai and Mao Xiong stood together hand in hand and looked at the fresh Buddha Belly wine. They didn’t notice the complicated and heated gazes of the other people at the same table at all. In the dictionary of the Black Beast, as long as it could eat something into its stomach, it depended on its own ability. Wu Hai had never been afraid of snatching food from others. Therefore, he was not embarrassed at all.
Very soon, a waiter came over to clear the empty plates and carried new desserts to them. As someone who had held many exchange meetings, Yuan Zhou indicated that he had already made sufficient preparations. Three desserts were prepared at each table. He was afraid that it would be embarrassing if he didn’t finish the wine after eating the desserts, especially since Wu Hai was also here today.
