Chapter 815: Red Wine
Tang Xiaolin looked at Luo Yun, and said with a smile on the corner of his mouth: "Section Chief Luo, I usually see that you don't drink much, so you still know this?"
Chen Qingdong also set his eyes on Luo Yun, Luo Yun is delicate and delicate, with fair skin, and a pair of glasses with metal rimmes on his face, he looks like a standard intellectual, and he really doesn't look like a person who drinks a lot. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Without waiting for Luo Yun to speak, Song Yu said: "Minister Tang, you are judging people by their appearance! Section Chief Luo is indeed not very good at drinking, but Section Chief Luo is absolutely erudite and has a wide range of knowledge! A little knowledge of red wine will definitely not be difficult for Section Chief Luo!"
Tang Xiaolin also said: "Yes, I also know that Section Chief Luo has a wide range of knowledge! Section Chief Luo, then please explain this to us?"
Luo Yun stroked the glasses on the bridge of his nose, smiled lightly, and said quite gently: "In front of you well-informed big brothers, I can't talk about a wide range of knowledge! However, I also know a little about the knowledge of red wine, because when I was in college, I took a second degree, and I chose to major in bioengineering, so I learned about this." ā
Luo Yun continued: "The so-called 'decanting' actually refers to the process of pouring red wine from a bottle into a decanter, leaving it for a period of time, and then tasting it. There are many theories about the habit of 'decanting' red wine, one of the more accepted is that red wine will produce tannic acid and some unnecessary mercaptans during the brewing process, and in the process of decanting red wine, tannic acid and these mercaptans will oxidize with the oxygen in the air, so that the originally rough wine becomes smooth and soft, and the taste is better. ā
There is also an opinion that decanting red wine is actually a process of making red wine breathe. Because in Europe and the United States, there are many people who believe that red wine is a 'living liquid' that can be breathed, and through decanting, it can make the wine energetic. ā
In fact, there is a counter-argument, which is also a more pragmatic view, that a few minutes or even hours of decanting will not have any effect on the tannins, and in most cases, the softening of the tannins should be in the red wine, and the whole process will take a few days or even weeks. Some large foreign wineries, after making red wine, do have a process of leaving it in the air for a few days before bottling. ā
"Hehe, because of the long history of red wine culture and a wide range of wine lovers around the world, some discussions about red wine have never stopped. In fact, for those of us who are not professionals, whether or not to sober up before drinking red wine really has little impact, because few of us really taste red wine with our hearts, but most people take red wine as beer and gulp it as much as beer! Let's just say that Mr. Song just poured a bar, and everyone was full of a big glass, which in our country, there is naturally a reason of 'wine full of sincerity', but if some people in Europe and the United States see such a practice of pouring wine, it is estimated that they will be shocked! In fact, it is also related to sobering. As a general rule, it is best to pour red wine one-third of the way into the glass, which is actually to leave enough space for the red chrysanthemum to come into full contact with the air. ā
Song Yu said with a smile: "It turns out that there are so many ways to pour red wine, fortunately, the people sitting here today are all Chinese, if there is a foreigner here, I will lose my face to a foreign country!"
Tang Xiaolin joked: "Mr. Song, you have been developing well for a few years, and in the future, you will go out of the door and do business all over the world! So you must first learn and learn Western etiquette! Otherwise, when you go to discuss business with the Yankees, people will invite you to dinner, and you will neither eat Western food nor drink red wine, then it will seem that our Chinese people are too uneducated!"
Song Yu said: "Minister Tang taught me a lesson! Looking back, I must study and learn this hard! It's okay to lose my own face, but if I lose the face of our country, then I won't become a sinner!"
Everyone laughed.
After laughing, Chen Qingdong said: "Section Chief Luo, I really benefited a lot from listening to you just now talk about these views on sobering wine! So, Section Chief Luo, which point of view do you agree with?"
Luo Yun smiled and said: "Actually, I personally think that there is no need to be more serious about these points discussed by experts, which is right and which is wrong, so I think it is enough to do one thing, that is, the next time you invite others to drink red wine, you must prepare a wine decanter and wake up the red wine first, so that it not only shows the hospitality of the host, but also shows that you know something about red wine." ā
After finishing speaking, Luo Yun looked at Tang Xudong and smiled.
Everyone could hear that Luo Yun was ridiculing Tang Xudong, so they all laughed.
Of course, Tang Xudong could hear it, but he was not angry at all, and said with a smile: "Xiaoyun, I accept your criticism, those who don't know are not guilty, next time, before I invite everyone to drink red wine, I must prepare a wine decanter and wake up the wine!"
Luo Yun hurriedly smiled and said: "Just kidding! Just kidding! I can drink the red wine that Brother Xu and Mr. Song pulled back from Yantai all the way, and I have already taken it orally, how dare I find fault with this detail?"
After listening to Luo Yun's conversation, Chen Qingdong learned more about Luo Yun, he thought that Luo Yun was very good, and he was very brainy, he spoke very humanely, and he also had a literati and scholar-like temperament, and he was indeed a character!
Cheng Xuehong can take a fancy to Luo Yun, there is indeed a reason!
In addition, from Luo Yun's last ridicule of Tang Xudong, and then he relieved him, as well as the titles of "Xiao Yun" and "Brother Xu" between them, Chen Qingdong can also see that the relationship between Tang Xudong and Luo Yun is indeed not ordinary!
Tang Xudong said that he and Luo Yun are world friends, and the two families have always had a good relationship, which seems to be true.
At this time, Tang Xudong picked up a full glass of red wine and said with a smile: "Today, we don't care about these rules for drinking red wine, just like Xiao Yun just said, let's drink red wine as beer and toast together!"
Tang Xiaolin didn't hold the cup and said: "Mr. Tang, our first cup can be drunk as beer, but we can't drink it like this later, otherwise, within an hour, we will all have to drink and lie down!"
Tang Xudong said with a smile: "Okay, then do what Minister Tang said, we have dried up the first glass of wine, starting from the second glass, let's all communicate with each other, how to drink, and we will discuss!"
Tang Xiaolin picked up the cup and said with a smile: "Okay, then have a drink!"
Although the degree of red wine is not as high as that of white wine, but the stamina is not small, at the beginning, everyone drank red wine is fine, but after three rounds of wine, three or four bottles of red wine are drunk, under the stimulation of alcohol, everyone's mood is obviously more high-pitched.
Chen Qingdong and Luo Yun's positions are next to each other, so there is more communication between the two of them.
At first, the two of them were more polite because of their differences, but after a few glasses of wine, they became more and more familiar, and then they became brothers. After comparison, they found that the two of them were born in the same year, but Chen Qingdong was born a few months earlier than Luo Yun, so Luo Yun called Chen Qingdong "Brother Dong".
Luo Yun's amount of wine is average, after drinking a lot of red wine today, his face has turned red, and he has spoken more, he approached Chen Qingdong and said: "Brother Dong, to be honest, I really admire you! When we first went to the youth training class together, we were all section members, look at now, you are already the party secretary of the ruling party, it is really enviable!"
Although Chen Qingdong also felt a little, his mind was still very clear, he patted Luo Yun's shoulder and said: "Xiaoyun, you are now the secretary of the county magistrate and the deputy chief of the comprehensive section, what is there to envy me? You are now the hottest figure in our county! I won't talk about anything else, just say that we, the secretaries and mayors of townships and towns, and the top leaders of those county-level units, who want to report to the county magistrate must not pass you first? Everyone has to be polite when they see you? Besides, you are so young now, you have served as the county magistrate for two or three years, once the county magistrate Ying releases you, you will be a big party!"
Luo Yun smiled bitterly and said: "Brother Dong is laughing, I know very well, everyone gives me face, it is all for the sake of the face of the county magistrate, I am actually nothing! If I compare with others, my progress is quite fast, but compared with you, I am really far behind." ā
Chen Qingdong heard Luo Yun say this, and knew that Luo Yun definitely drank too much, it seems that wine is really ecstasy, and no matter how stable a person is, once he drinks too much wine, he will become involuntary!
Chen Qingdong saw that Luo Yun seemed to want to say something more, but Chen Qingdong didn't want to listen to it anymore, because Luo Yun's drunken words were already a bit out of line, and listening to too much of it would only be harmful, not beneficial.
So, Chen Qingdong brought the water cup to Luo Yun, blocked Luo Yun's mouth, and said, "Xiao Yun, you have drunk a lot today, drink some water to relieve hangover first." ā
Luo Yun was quite obedient, took the water cup that Chen Qingdong brought to his mouth, and drank it with a clatter.
Chen Qingdong whispered to Tang Xudong next to him: "Mr. Tang, I see that Xiao Yun has drunk a little too much, how do you let him rest and wake up?"
Tang Xudong was still very sober, he also heard what Luo Yun said just now, and knew that Luo Yun had indeed drunk too much, if Luo Yun said something that should not be said, then not only would he be embarrassed after he woke up, but the people who listened would also be embarrassed, so he smiled bitterly and said to Chen Qingdong: "Xiao Yun's amount of alcohol is not very good, and he does drink too much." In this way, there is a foot bath city next door, I am very familiar with their boss, I will send Xiaoyun over to rest and rest first, and we will also go over to rest and rest in a while, wash our feet, do a massage, and sober up. ā
Tang Xudong seemed to be afraid of Chen Qingdong's refusal, and said: "Secretary Chen, rest assured, they are all very formal massages, and there are no messy projects." ā
Chen Qingdong said: "Okay, then let's send Xiao Yun over to rest first." ā
