Chapter 178: Cheap Rum (Part I)
"Sister Ling, you have to try this cocktail!" Xiao Xue walked in happily and said excitedly.
"It's Brother Huang's, right?" Huang Ling smiled and said, "I'll give it a try." ”
"Yes!" Xiaoxue put the wine glass on the table and looked at Huang Ling expectantly.
Huang Ling picked up the wine glass and couldn't help but smile, although she knew that this Huang Zetian's bartending skills were very good, but she knew that the glass of wine she wanted to drink was definitely not this glass.
Taking a sip, Huang Ling closed her eyes and felt it.
Xiao Xue held her breath and didn't dare to speak, she knew that Huang Ling was judging.
A few seconds later, Huang Ling opened her eyes and said, "Xiaoxue, this glass of wine is so well blended, Brother Huang's skills are getting better and better!" ”
"Yes, didn't you see that when Brother Huang was bartending just now, many people were praising it!" Xiaoxue said proudly.
"You little girl, it's unfair to the other contestants to say this." Huang Ling said.
"Originally, the bartender who came here now can't even compare to me, let alone Brother Huang!" Xiaoxue said quite arbitrarily.
In fact, after this news came out, many bartenders came to the bars west of the old city, especially those from the imperial capital, and there were also some foreign bartenders who heard the news, and there was absolutely no problem with their bartending skills, but it was not the glass of wine that Huang Ling wanted to drink.
"Okay Xiaoxue, help me go out and thank Brother Huang, but this is not what I want to drink." Huang Ling said.
Xiaoxue couldn't help but pout, although she didn't know why Huang Ling suddenly held such an event on a whim, but she could feel that Huang Ling seemed to want to wait for someone to appear because of what she had experienced before, which was like recruiting relatives, and the dowry was the whole bar!
Whenever I think of this, Xiaoxue is very careful to deal with all kinds of bartenders, and when she encounters the kind of bartenders with bad conduct and mediocre appearance, her attitude is like an ice cube.
"Sister Huang Ling, are you sure you won't taste it again?" Xiaoxue asked through gritted teeth.
"Xiaoxue!"
At this time, a woman beside Huang Ling couldn't help but say that her name was Qin Lan, she was Huang Ling's good friend, and she was also a mysterious person.
Huang Ling shook her head with a smile and said, "Okay, please adjust the bar next, Ningcheng, right?" ”
"Good!" Although Xiaoxue was a little unwilling, she still did not disobey Huang Ling's intentions and walked out with a cocktail.
"Look, it's out! Boss Huang, it looks like this bar is already in your pocket! Not only that, but also hugged the beauty! Someone immediately lifted up.
"Yes, I've seen all the bartenders recently, and the wine that Boss Huang concocted is definitely the first!"
"Everybody's up!" Although Huang Zetian said this, he still had a confident smile on his face, but he spent a lot of effort to make this glass of wine, I believe Huang Ling will definitely be amazed!
"Why is this guy so shameless? Is there a shady scene? Xiaodong couldn't help but ask softly.
"I don't know, after all, this is the No. 1 bar in the imperial capital, maybe it's just a gimmick, in order to stimulate consumption." Bei Xiaofang said calmly.
Ning Cheng, who was sitting on the side, propped up the table with his hands, quietly watched Xiaoxue come over, and didn't say a word.
"Xiaoxue, what's wrong?" Huang Zetian asked gently.
Xiao Xue's face was a little tangled, she wished she could say that the person Huang Ling was looking for was him, but she couldn't, if Huang Ling knew, then the end would be very miserable!
"I'm sorry Brother Huang, Sister Ling said that your wine is very delicious, and it can be said that it is the most flavorful glass of wine in this assessment, but the person she is looking for ......" Xiaoxue said softly.
"Oh, I understand, there's no way, fate is such a thing as only God can say, and I'm satisfied to be able to participate in a competition!" Huang Zetian smiled, not taking this matter seriously at all.
However, Ning Cheng saw a hint of gloom in his eyes, although it was hidden deeply.
"Well, I believe that Brother Huang will be able to move Sister Ling one day!" Xiaoxue said seriously.
"Hehe, it's okay, I'll still come to Xiaoling's shop often in the future to help you research new cocktails together!"
"Okay, I'll definitely tell Sister Ling!" Xiaoxue looked at Huang Zetian, there seemed to be several lights shining on him at this moment, maybe only a man with such a bearing could be worthy of Sister Ling.
"Sir, will you let you go? I'm going to start bartending. ”
Just as everyone was immersed in Huang Zetian's gentle words, a lukewarm voice sounded.
Ning Cheng had already arrived at the bar at some point, holding a rag in his hand and carefully wiping his hands.
"I'm sorry to trouble you, I wish you success." Although Huang Zetian felt uncomfortable in his heart, he still held back his anger and walked out of the bar, but he did not leave immediately, but found a chair and sat down.
"I guess I haven't called you yet, have I?" Xiao Xue's attitude became cold again, and she seemed to look at Ning Cheng with a sharp look in her eyes.
The reason is very simple, because Ning Cheng is too ordinary, dressed in ordinary and casual clothes, he looks like a stall all over the place, and his appearance is not very handsome, at most, he can see it, his emaciated face and body, he always feels that a gust of wind can blow it down, and such a man is simply a heaven and an underground compared to Huang Zetian!
"I remember it, let's get ready first." Ning Cheng put down the rag and said.
"Hmph, I'd like to see how you make a fool of yourself, delusional toad!" Xiaoxue couldn't help but sneer.
Ning Cheng finally looked at Xiao Xue, and at this moment Xiao Xue suddenly trembled, because Ning Cheng's momentum changed, and in an instant, the people around seemed to be able to feel an inexplicable feeling emanating from this man.
It seems that people can't help but want to retreat and dare not approach.
"Look, the boss's eyes have changed!" Bei Xiaofang said on the side.
Xiaodong nodded, and then sneered and said, "Just let these guys who look down on people see what the former god of wine in country M is!" ”
Bei Xiaofang smacked his tongue secretly, he didn't expect Ningcheng to have such a glorious history.
"Sometime, you want to talk to me about the Boss!" Bei Xiaofang said.
"Okay, the boss is starting to mix drinks, and I'll talk about it when I'm free." Xiaodong doesn't have time to pay attention to Bei Xiaofang now, because he wants to devote himself to this moment, and he seems to remember the warm picture from before.
"No matter how the world changes, the boss is still the boss he used to be." Xiaodong couldn't help but say.
On the bar, Ning Cheng stopped talking, picked up the cocktail shaker in his hand, carefully checked the caliber, and after confirming, Ning Cheng turned around and went to the counter to pick up the bottle of rum that he and Xiaodong saw just now.
"What kind of wine is this guy holding in his hand? How come I haven't seen it? ”
"I don't know, it's probably a rum bar, but it doesn't seem to be the famous kind."
Xiaoxue regained her composure, she was almost frightened by Ning Cheng's momentum just now, but when she saw Ning Cheng actually take out this bottle of rum, she couldn't help but sneer and said, "There are so many expensive wines that are not used, you have to use this kind of brand that can't be on the table, there is really nothing to look forward to!" ”
She defined that moment as an illusion.
And Ning Cheng didn't care about the people around him at all, he still mixed his wine with peace of mind, immersed in his own world......
