Chapter 100: The Little City of Budon

Li Han opened the wooden door of the beer hut and brought out a dozen oak barrels, large and small, and stacked them together. Liu Ming, who came over with him, knocked on the wooden barrel and said. "These are oak barrels, isn't it a waste to use them for beer? ”

"Of course, this is a local white oak in the United States, which was previously ordered to hold beer, and it tastes better than glass bottles, oak barrels can keep fresh, keep the original taste of the beer, and make the beer more colorful, and the price is acceptable, move over first, pour beer. Li Han carried two small oak barrels and handed them to Xiao Dudu, Dudu carried one in one hand, Liu Ming weighed it, it was not light, two trips back and forth, the oak barrels were moved to the small building, filled with beer, and the oak barrels were filled and transported back to the beer hut.

Cooked beer and freshly poured draft beer, each moved two barrels, thirty liters of small kegs, placed in the car, Li Han clapped his hands. "If you don't try it first, this batch of draft beer is the best batch of beer ever brewed. Li Han opened the beer valve, poured two large glasses of beer, handed Liu Ming a glass, worked for a while, really a little thirsty, cold beer, really delicious, the two of them drank a big cup after a while, and the ice cream just ate a little bit.

Liu Ming wiped the beer foam from the corner of his mouth and said. "It tastes good, isn't it good to live on the farm?" "Hehe, the main work on the farm is now in charge of Jem and Hughton, otherwise, there won't be so much time to drink with you, Philip will drive for a while, the police in the small town of Briton regard issuing tickets as a hobby." "No problem, it's just that I'm going to go back to China to participate in the Oktoberfest in the past two days, and I'm going to fly directly to Los Angeles, maybe I'll have to stay in China for a few days, if you need my help, I still have some energy in China." ”

"It's a bit of a problem. My little niece wants to come to the United States to study, and my mother plans to accompany her. The visa process is too slow, and I am afraid that I will not be able to start school in time. Li Han said. Two days ago, I called, my mother retired and planned to come to the United States to live for a while, who thought that the baby was yelling to come, the little girl stayed in the United States for a month, I like American schools, there are a lot of fun people who want to come to the United States to go to school, my brother-in-law and my sister discussed and decided to send the baby over, my brother-in-law and my sister are very busy with work. In addition, during the winter and summer vacations, my brother-in-law and sister can come to the United States to accompany the baby.

Liu Ming nodded and said. "No problem, trivial, I'll do it for you in three days. "Thank you. Li Han put away the cup and prepared to go, at the intersection, he met Dolores and David, who were carrying a small bag and holding Michelle. "Hi Han. David gave Li Han a hug. patted Li Han on the shoulder.

"What, no, no, David. Dolores was still a child, and I didn't think it would work. Li Han didn't expect Dolores to plan to go to Bridon with him, and not only that. and Michelle turned out to be abducted by Doloris. "It's okay, Han. I told my dad. ”

Li Han was a little incredulous and looked at David. David nodded. "Yes, Han, Andrei agreed. "David, even if Andre had agreed, I don't think Mr. Anderson would have agreed. Li Han glanced at the blonde little Lori Michelle who was carrying a small bag and holding a little teddy bear, Michelle blinked her eyes wide, and waved her hands cutely and Dudu.

"No, Anderson agreed, Han. Dolores said with a grin, shaking her phone, and Anderson's voice came from the phone. "Han, I'm sorry for you. "Han, it's okay if it's just two more people, I'll pay for the room and meals, and Philip will help add a child seat." ”

Li Han was helpless, forget it, just take the two children to play, plus the child seat, Dudu and Michelle, the two little guys, sit close together, and share all kinds of snacks. Doloris leaned on Li Han's side to pestering Li Han to tell stories, along the way Li Han's mouth skin was worn out, drank two or three bottles of water, got out of the car twice, and galloped all the way, the sky was getting late, the sunset shrouded the sky, the black clouds were like cows, gathering, the wind blew the grass waves, reflecting the golden light, the cowboys made the desolate grassland a little more vibrant, driving away the cattle, and the shepherd dog barked through the empty grassland, scattered in the sky.

Came to the small town of Butun, came to the street not far from the beer street to find a good hotel to live in, the innkeeper is an Indian, very polite, especially to see the necklace around the neck of Dudu, learned that Dudu fed a white wild buffalo, very surprised, a lot of enthusiasm, free fruit plate and some small souvenirs, this is a good person.

The small town of Briton is close to Yellowstone, with more than 20,000 people and a surrounding population of about 30,000, which is a relatively large city in Montana, with 90 percent white, 5 percent Latino, and the rest Indigenous and Asian.

Li Han arranged everyone's room and returned to the living room, where Dudu and Michelle were tasting Sheel's zuò feta cheese and ice cream, and Liu Ming and Hill were talking. "Oh, Han, have a cup of coffee. "Thanks, Hill. ”

Li Han took the coffee and thanked him and sat on the side. "It tastes really good, it's hand-grounded, it's really good craftsmanship. "Thanks, Han, you have to know that the coffee beans are hand-picked, the best Brazilian coffee beans, and the coffee machine is handed down by my grandfather. Hill was very happy and said.

"No wonder it's so delicious, Hill, don't build yì I'll have another drink. Li Han said with a smile. "Of course, Ming, would you like another drink?" "Thank you, I can." Liu Ming's eyelids jumped slightly, it was too bitter. "What a pity, Han, your coffee. ”

Li Han took it and thanked him and said. "Ciel, there's a lot of people on the streets. "Han, don't you know that tomorrow is the annual Oktoberfest, and the residents from all over the world will come to participate. Hill said.

Li Han really participated in the beer festival for the first time, took a sip of coffee, and said. "It was our first time at the Oktoberfest and we just didn't expect so many people. "Han, you're so lucky. Hill said. "You know, Master Ottoman hasn't been to the Oktoberfest for three years, and the delicious beer is really evocative. ”

Liu Ming glanced at Li Han, and Li Han put the coffee cup. "Yes, thank you to the gods of luck for your favor, and I can speak of Mr. Ottoman, I think this must be a respectable gentleman. ”

Hill added some coffee to Han and said. "I'm glad that Mr. Ottoman is Montana, no, one of the best brewers in the western United States, and the authentic German beer is evocative, but unfortunately, Mr. Ottoman only brews a thousand barrels of beer a year, and I want to get one more barrel, maybe tomorrow you should taste Mr. Ottoman's beer, it must be a wonderful experience. ”

Hill looked intoxicated, this Mr. Ottoman is really not a simple person, Li Han couldn't help but glance at the car outside, which contained four barrels of beer. "I think I'll be over, Ciel, could you please help me prepare dinner?"

"Oh, I'm so sorry, you see I've forgotten about it, sir, ma'am, wait a minute. Hill left to prepare dinner, and Liu Ming sat down beside Li Han. "Han, it seems that Ottoman has a good reputation, no problem. "I hope that a few beer appraisers, the taste is not too biased. ”

Liu Ming showed a different smile and said. "I don't think so, Han, aren't you worried at all?" "Hehe, it's useless to worry, why bother, it's better to have a good taste of our dinner." ”

"That's a good idea, so do you want some beer?" Liu Ming pointed to the large wooden barrel placed behind Hill's counter. "Of course, beer tastes wonderful, isn't it?" Li Han looked a little underwhelmed, and Liu Ming pursed his lips, really.

Dinner was delicious, with tender lamb chops, mushroom soup, vegetable salad, plus a small dessert, a glass of draft beer, and the little ones loved to eat a little dessert full of Indian style. "Thank you, Ciel, it's delicious. ”

"You're welcome, Han, would you like another cup of coffee?" Hill packed up his knives, forks, dishes, and came over with a pot of coffee. "Thank you. Li Han and Hill chatted for a while about Ottoman, this is a respectable but stubborn and conservative German old man, brewing beer technology is indisputable in Montana, Li Han smiled bitterly and shook his head, the time and place are favorable, Ottoman is completely occupied, maybe only rely on two barrels of space malt and hops, space spring water to brew beer.

Early in the morning, Li Han drove with Hill to the Oktoberfest Carnival Street, which is an old street with a history of more than 50 years, Oktoberfest decorations can be seen everywhere, many stores are placed in front of large wooden barrels and cups, you can drink beer for free at any time, and there are miniature small beer barrel pendants in the boxes around you, you will get a copy when you come, and even Dudu and Michelle have them, Hill introduced, this is a gift for you who thinks the best beer brewer.

Li Han looked at the shops around him, and asked as he pointed to the beer barrels placed in front of a third of the shops. "If you've ever drunk a beer and think it's good, you can cast this little thing. "Yes, it's just that maybe only one person will get the beer badge this year. ”

Hill said, pointing to a high platform not far away. "Oh, I really owe it to that stupid Asian who was finally able to taste the Ottoman master again. Hill didn't notice that Li Han's eyelids jumped next to him, and Liu Ming squeezed his eyes at Li Han with a smile. "Yes, thanks to that stupid Asian, Ciel, I hope you have a great day, thanks, that's all it takes to get here. ”

"Well, Han, Ming, goodbye, have fun, be sure to taste Mr. Ottoman's beer, it will be the best moment of your life. Hill and Li Han said goodbye and left, and Liu Ming patted Li Han on the shoulder. "Our stupid Mr. Li Han, are you ready?" "Of course, it's really nice weather, I think it's going to be a good day, let's go." ”

When he came to the high platform, Li Han negotiated with the staff, and brought four barrels of beer to the backstage in a board car. It was still early, and there were not many pedestrians on the street, Li Han was going to take a break, but he didn't think about Power, Kaidi, Bill and others drove over. "It just so happens that I have something to do too, I'll see you later, Han, good luck. "Thank you, see you in a moment. Li Han took Dudu, Dolores, and Michelle for a while and came to the entrance of the street.

Weili and Kaidi came over in a pickup truck and hugged Li Han greatly. "Han, on behalf of Ke Mixing, we support you, and we must defeat the old German man. "Thanks, I think it will. Li Han said with a smile. (To be continued......)
