Chapter 18: Red

"My lovely whiskey."

Belmodo teased Du Kang while driving, looking amorous.

Both whisky and whiskey refer to whiskey. Of course, there is a difference. Whisky generally refers to Scotch and Canadian whiskies. whiskey, on the other hand, refers to Irish and American whiskey. Jonnie Walker, on the other hand, is an authentic Scotch, Scotch whisky.

However, when ordinary people say something, they can't tell which one they say just by their pronunciation.

However, when reading whiskey, Belmodo generally pronounces whiskey as usual, while whisky is a bit like an Australian sound, and deliberately pronounces the last sky of whisky as the sky of the sky.

So, even Du Kang, who has such a good hearing, can tell which whisky Belmodo is talking about.

"Speaking of whiskey, why my code name is Johnnie Walker. Shouldn't it be Jack Daniel's or something? I've never been to Canada. ”

Du Kang is a serious child who studied in the United States. If you have to choose a brand of wine, it stands to reason that you should not choose a down-to-earth brand in the United States, such as choosing a model from Jack Daniels.

However, Du Kang's code name was chosen from Johnnie Walker's model, which couldn't help but make Du Kang wonder. You know, Johnnie Walker is an authentic Scotch whisky.

"Isn't Johnnie a good match for John? Actually, what I proposed at the time was to replace the number from Johnnie Walker, and I took Red Label. RL，red line，The Thin Red Line。 Belmodo said some anecdotes about the time when he arranged a code for Du Kang, "What's the matter, my sister values you very much." ”

The Thin Red Line, a relatively common idiom nowadays. It was widely circulated because of the report of a war correspondent in the Crimean War. At that time, the British 93rd Highland Infantry Regiment blocked and routed the Russian cavalry, which was several times its size, in two rows.

Judging from this word, Belmodo is indeed very much of the Dukang. It's just that Du Kang thought that in Burma, the Japanese devils were chasing the British army several times their size on bicycles, and Du Kang couldn't be serious.

"Well, it looks like BL is better, at least it's not a bargain." Listening to Belmodo's words, Du Kang felt a little balanced in his heart.

After all, people always have vanity. Du Kang is no exception. The Red Label is just the entry point for Johnnie Walker, and if you buy it on a treasure, you may not even need to use three digits. Of course, it's not clear if it's genuine. The Blue Label, on the other hand, is undoubtedly Johnnie Walker's high-end product, and the price has to be increased by a 0 behind the red square in front.

"Then you should thank GIN. Both I and little Shirley are very fond of RED. ”

"Hey, when I talk about my background, I think of red as a person." Du Kang said speechlessly.

"Irish whiskey can also be used as whiskey." Belmodo said.

"Ireland's words. I have the impression of being a cuckold. A tradition that has been passed down from the line of King Arthur. Du Kang thought for a moment and said.

Ireland's logo is also green. Originally, Du Kang thought it was those people from the Middle East.

"So, Chinese culture is really interesting." Belmodo clearly understands what green hats mean in Chinese culture. Maybe it's because of Du Kang that he specifically investigated.

"No matter how you look at it, whether it's Red Label or Blue Label. It's all authentic Scotch. ”

"Then why does Irish whiskey use whiskey?" Belmodo asked rhetorically.

"The extra e. Is it excellent? ”

“bingo。” Hearing Du Kang say the answer to his question, Belmodo was extremely happy, "Sister, I am very optimistic about you." ”

"Red label. Actually, it's quite in line with mine. You can only do low-end work, such as raising guinea pigs. Du Kang felt sorry for himself.

Although because of his membership in the organization, the money is not less than that of senior researchers in ordinary laboratories. However, whether it is technical ability or creativity, Du Kang can only raise guinea pigs in the laboratory.

In fact, Du Kang always thought that if the organization sent him so much money, he would definitely let himself do something else. But things happened exactly beyond Du Kang's expectations.

If you let yourself raise guinea pigs in the first month or two, it can still be regarded as an internship period, and by the way, talk about your own bottom. But I've been doing this job for a year, and I haven't been transferred, and I feel like I'm sitting on the ceiling, and I can't move anymore.

However, Du Kang is also happy to be idle, anyway, there is a lot of money to give, and the time is not so crowded. What's more, Shiho Miyano is also there. Du Kang has always had the intention of tricking Miyano Shiho into going home to be his daughter-in-law. Why? Of course, it's because she's young and beautiful.

"I didn't say that the code name that Little Shirley gave you was Red Label." Belmodo said mysteriously.

"Ha, red, black, green, gold, blue. Enga double black and white gold, what else is there at Johnnie Walker? Du Kang asked incomprehensibly, "Is there a double red?" ”

Although he occasionally drinks alcohol, Du Kang is clearly not an addict. The knowledge of whisky is also mainly based on a few common brands. And the common brands of Johnnie Walker, Du Kang also knows the five sides and a few special models similar to those used for excess.

"Little Shirley gave you the code name Red Rye."

"What, that's what. I know Rye, I know Red wheat. I've never heard of Red Rye." Du Kang said.

Rye, meaning rye. Red Wheat, on the other hand, is talking about red wheat.

Then he remembered something and said, "However, I have achieved the right result of cultivation." Speaking of which, according to the rules of my hometown, I should call Rye my brother. ”

Rye, not only means rye, rye whiskey, the code name of Shuichi Akai when he was undercover. At that time, when Gin pulled himself into the gang, Rye was still working diligently in the organization. As a result, in just one year, the world was turned upside down.

Shiho Miyano's sister's object is called Rye, and Shiho Miyano nominated himself with the code name Red Rye. This made Du Kang inexplicably have one of the three major illusions in life - she likes me.

"A new product from Johnnie Walker. A new concoction by Dr Jim Beveridge. A fusion of bourbon and rye flavors. ”

"Never drank bourbon, never drank rye whiskey. When I was in the United States, I was a poor one. If it weren't for Shiho helping me find a pro bono to brush up on my credits, I guess I would have gotten out in the first year. Even if I drink, I drink cheap things like the red side. ”

"What about you now. Whether it's a salary or a bonus, it's enough for your expenses. Belmodo asked slyly, "It's all given to the country." ”

It's obviously tempting, sort of. It's like asking Du Kang if he used the money given to you by the organization to support other organizations. An atmosphere of white learning was enveloped in the car for a moment.

"Only those who have experienced the lack of money know how wonderful it is to have money. There's nothing wrong with paying your family's salary. Du Kang knew what Belmodo was trying, but Du Kang chose to ignore their associations at all. This kind of thing is, the more you explain, the more they get into it.

When Du Kang was in high school, the school had a school rule called "It is strictly forbidden to contradict the teacher". In Du Kang's view, this kind of school rule is equivalent to "unnecessary". You said you didn't contradict the teacher, okay, this sentence just now is considered to be contradicting the teacher.

A bunch of cultured stinky hooligans.

"I'm basically green and blue right now. I don't drink any other whiskey. Du Kang is in the posture of an upstart.

"So little Shirley's Rye, do you want to have a Manhattan cup with your sister?" Belmodo had a provocative tone.

"Holy, you're crazy. You dare to play with that thing. As if he didn't understand, Du Kang said in surprise.

"Don't be so serious. You're completely obsessed with my sister. "Belmodo is playing drifting on mountain roads, which is a very hormonal stimulation.

"No, I still want to give it to Shiho for the first time." Du Kang laid out his file bag.

Regarding Aoyin, it is not common for ordinary people to take listening tests. The fourth and sixth levels of the university are basically nothing more than Ying's and American. IELTS has an Australian tone, and the proportion is not small, accounting for (15%-20%).

The more classic is to pronounce [ei] as [ai]. Then put Where are you going today? Pronounced Where are you going to die? ）

Everyone should know about the Manhattan Project. And Manhattan is still a cocktail. Here Sister Bei said this, similar to the X hint of "toasting Martini" to Gin.

Regarding Red Rye, the leader looked for some information on the Internet, but could not find the Chinese one for the time being:

Johnnie Walker has launched the first release from the limited edition experimental Blenders’ Batch series， Johnnie Walker Blenders’ Batch Red Rye Finish.

Led by master blender Dr Jim Beveridge， the blending team set about studying flavour experiments， focussing on developing and understanding alternative flavours including wine， coffee and chocolate.

Inspired by Dr Beveridge’s time blending bourbons and ryes in Kentucky in the 1990s， Johnnie Walker Blenders’ Batch Red Rye Finish is the result of experiments into the influence of bourbon and rye whiskey flavours on Scotch. The blend was created from a small number of malt and grain whiskies drawn from first fill ex-bourbon casks， including whisky from the now closed Port Dundas distillery and Cardhu distillery. The blend is finished in ex-rye casks for up to six months， which gives the whisky a balance of intense sweetness， layered fresh fruit and spice.
