Chapter 208 [Artist's Aura]

"Hahahaha......" Serena's laughter suddenly came from Li Jun's consciousness. (Hand-typed novel)

"What's the matter, beauty, don't you suddenly come out like this and be scary." Li Jun said angrily.

"Li Jun, you kid is really a talent," Serena said angrily and funny, "You asked me what to do before, I think you are sick or what, with the 'artist potion', so that you become aware of everything, plus your kid's own flickering energy, it is simply deceived this little beauty, and I am embarrassed to ask me what to do, if this continues, the beauties in the world will be fooled by you." ”

"Hehe, where, where," Li Jun said modestly, "The key is that the 'artist potion' is really too effective, just like what you said, it is definitely a big weapon to pretend to be a bubble girl, if I don't have this thing, I can fool again, and I can't fool it." ”

"Well," Serena nodded in agreement, "then go ahead." ”

"Hehe, okay." Li Jun said that, and cut off the consciousness communication with Serena.

……

Immediately, Li Jun's expression was straight, and he said to Liu Yunmeng: "How can I be considered powerful, I often drink red wine when I look like you, you should know more than me, right?" ”

"Where, where do I know more about you, I'm just a half-ass," Liu Yunmeng said modestly, but she really felt that Li Jun knew more than her, "Actually, I really like to drink Platus, but I don't know much about its story, what else do you know, let me hear it?" ”

Hooked so quickly, Li Jun smiled secretly in his heart, but on the surface, he nodded quietly, and said: "Petus means 'Peter' in Latin, it is named after St. Peter, a disciple of Jesus, and you should be able to see St. Peter holding the key to heaven on the label of Chateau Petrus." Chateau is not as old as the Romanee Conti winery, and even in 1945 it was a small and unknown winery. His success in recent years is all due to his hard work. The name Chateau Petus appeared in 1837, when he was in the 4th or 5th place in the Pomerol region. In 1893, the location of Chateau Portus was raised to the second place of Pomerol, and the price was roughly between the second and third classes in the Medoc district. It was not until 1925 that a hotelier, Madame Loubet, bought the Chateau and changed his fortunes radically, thanks to her merchandising skills. Mrs. Loubet owns 2 wineries and a local restaurant in the area, is a well-known entrepreneur, and her brother is the mayor. Madame Loubet began to work on the acquisition of the winery. The first was to raise the price, and secondly, she introduced Potus to her wealthy friends, and from then on Potus became popular in the French high-class social circles. From then on, Potus was no longer synonymous with the country gentleman, but gradually became the drink of high society. Subsequently, Mrs. Loubet decided to enter the British royal family, because he even got the British market in order to have an international reputation. When Queen Elizabeth II got engaged, Potus became the cup of the nobility, and since then he has become a famous product in English high society. Madame Loubet became a guest of honour of the royal family at the Queen's official wedding ceremony in 1947. Loubet was very good at using the upper class to sell, and after her death in 1961, Potus was divided into three shares owned by the Lacoste, Loubet and Moeuix families. The Moeuix family, on the other hand, inherited Mrs. Loubet's style of business and occupied the White House in the United States in the 60s, which was appreciated by the Kennedy family. ”

Liu Yunmeng nodded and said, "No wonder, the owner of Potus is very good at operating and hyping it." ”

"And that's not all," Li continued, "but there is also something that makes Potus in terms of quality, and the brewing method is entirely based on an idealistic approach regardless of the cost. The soil of Potus is clay on the surface, with a terracotta layer underneath and a deeper layer of limestone with a high iron content, which has excellent drainage properties. The density of 6,000 vines per hectare is planted on the estate, and the plants are relatively old, combined with strict pruning, resulting in very low yields. To ensure quality, the grapes are harvested when they are fully ripe and not overripe, and are harvested in the afternoon, so that the morning sun can dry the dew on the grapes. The 180 workers spent two to three half-days picking the grapes to avoid affecting the flavor due to the different ripeness of the grapes. After harvesting, each grape is carefully selected by hand. Once fermentation is complete, it is aged for about 22 months in different new oak barrels, allowing the wine to absorb the aromas of the different oaks. The barrel needs to be changed every 3 months. After the maturation, the Potus is very rich and condensed, with a strong black cherry color, aromas of spices and plums, and a characteristic earthy flavor with a high-quality truffle aroma. On the palate it is smooth with hints of high-grade ripe tannins. 1945、1947、1949、1950、1953、1961、1967、1982、1985。 1989, 1994 and the 70s as a whole were top vintages. The Potus wines are very rich and condensed, expressing the Merlot character of the deep clayey soils, thanks to the long growth of the vines and the controlled production of the grapes. The wines produced by Château Bertus in 1945, 1947, 1949, 1950, 1953, 1961, 1967 and the controversial 1971 vintage are extraordinary, and the successes of the '70s are a success. The older the vine, the more monumental the wine, but easy to pick up and slow to ripen. The years 1982 and 1985 were brilliant and are now well drunk; The 1986 one is still quite sour, so don't touch it for 20 years; The 1989 was quite flattering, and its richness was close to California; And the 1994 vintage was probably the best in Bordeaux Right Bank that year. ”

"Hearing you say that, my choice of taste is really right." Liu Yunmeng heard that Li Jun described Potus so perfectly, and she was also pleased with her own vision.

Li Jun nodded and said: "The only pity that Potus is such a good wine is that the production is very small, so that the price has risen again and again, and now a bottle of wine is generally sold for about 1,000 US dollars, and it is still a broken iron shoe and nowhere to be found, it seems that it is not easy for this restaurant to have stock." ”

"Well," Liu Yunmeng nodded, pouting and smiling, "You have to be a regular customer." ”

"Oh, then I'm not as good as you, you have to drink if you want to, that's called awesome, haha." Li Jun joked with a laugh.

At this time, Liu Yunmeng was attracted by Li Jun, a super sports master, and played an excellent piano, although his appearance was very ordinary, but when he talked eloquently, the whole person couldn't help revealing an indescribable elegant temperament, and this kind of thing, for Liu Yunmeng, is the most attractive place for her.

In general, in Liu Yunmeng's eyes, Li Jun is like a piece of gold hidden in the desert, as long as someone finds him, he will shine with inexplicable brilliance.

Liu Yunmeng felt that she was becoming more and more interested in Li Jun, and when a woman became more and more interested in a man, what happened next was completely predictable.

When the waiter put a bottle of 47-year-old Potus in front of Li Jun after waking up, Li Jun smiled politely at the waiter, and then took out two clean goblets, slowly poured a small semi-dark red liquid into one of the goblets, held the cup holder in one hand, and gently shook it clockwise, and then, suddenly grabbed Liu Yunmeng's hand, and put the cup of Platus 1947 in Liu Yunmeng's small palm, and said with a smile: "Taste it, don't touch the wall of the cup with your fingers, otherwise, the small temperature difference, may affect its taste. ”

Liu Yunmeng often drinks red wine, so she naturally knows these truths, but now that she is grabbed by Li Jun, she is a little slow to act.

Liu Yunmeng's eyes were attracted by the red wine in the goblet, and the more she looked at it, the more pleased she became, and she couldn't help but take a sip gently.

"It's delicious" Feeling the fragrant taste coming from her mouth, Liu Yunmeng couldn't help but say in surprise, like discovering a new world, if in normal times, who dared to do anything to her, she would have slapped it a long time ago, but now, holding this small glass of red wine, she even rarely said something delicious to Li Jun, and even a little cheered, if this made those animals who like her see it, she would definitely collapse.

Seeing Liu Yunmeng's expression, Li Jun knew that his plan had succeeded, and he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief for a while, he had even made plans for the two of them to be embarrassed and cold for a night just now.

And Li Jun can still feel that Liu Yunmeng at this time, in her inner world, is very happy and happy about her entry.

"Liu Yunmeng, do you like to listen to piano music?" At this moment, Li Jun suddenly looked at Liu Yunmeng, stirring the coffee on the corner of the table, looking at the delicate stripes on the wall of the cup, and pretending to ask casually.

"Well, I like it, I was shocked by your performance at the closing ceremony of the Games that day." Hearing Li Jun's words, Liu Yunmeng's quiet action of drinking coffee couldn't help but be in vain, she suddenly seemed to think of something, raised her head slightly, and couldn't help but bring a trace of loose coffee on the silver-white coffee cup.

Liu Yunmeng saw Li Jun at this time, and what she had on her face was an indescribable confidence, a confident man is undoubtedly the most mysterious, even Liu Yunmeng is no exception, and this self-confidence is by no means pretended, but comes from self-confidence in himself.

This makes Li Jun can't help but be shrouded in a layer of fog, and a man like him who is both civil and military is definitely the prince charming in the hearts of many girls.

Maybe Li Jun, such a wonderful man, shouldn't belong to himself, right?

Thinking of this, Liu Yunmeng felt a little faintly sour in her heart, this strange feeling, even Liu Yunmeng herself did not notice it.

"Excuse me, can you lend me one of your pianos?" At this time, Li Jun couldn't help but invite the waiter who had just picked up Liu Yunmeng in, and then pointed to a piano in the corner, and said with a smile.

Seeing that it was the man who accompanied Liu Yunmeng in, the waiter didn't hesitate at all, so he ran to ask the manager, and when he left, he couldn't help but look at Li Jun a few more times.

"This gentleman? Are you going to borrow that piano?" Not long after, a short and fat middle-aged man came out of the shadows, glanced at Li Jun, and couldn't help but say politely.

"Yes, don't worry, I can pay." Hearing the manager's words, Li Jun couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, if there was no piano, I am afraid that the next step would be greatly reduced with the expected effect.

"No, no, don't get me wrong, sir, it's just that the piano hasn't been used for too long, I'm afraid ......" Hearing Li Jun's words, the manager couldn't help but shake his head, and his face couldn't help but have a trace of apology.

And all this is also the reason for Liu Yunmeng, otherwise, for Li Jun, a guy he has never seen, the manager would definitely not be so polite.

"It's okay, you can still use it." After dropping this sentence, Li Jun didn't care about the manager's expression, so he uncovered the piano cloth and sat down in front of him.

Touching the keys, Li Jun couldn't help but feel ethereal, he knew that this was the "artist's potion" that was really working.

"Today, I'm going to give this self-composed track to someone present, thank you," Li Jun said into the microphone not far away, and the words just happened to be heard clearly by the entire restaurant.

With the effect of artistic mastery, Li Jun does not have to play other people's tunes at all, and can even play some tunes that exist in his mind but do not exist in the real world, and Li Jun certainly calls them self-composed repertoire.

For a while, everyone's eyes in the restaurant fell on Li Jun, and even the American country song that had been playing was stilled, it seemed that this was the manager's idea.

And Liu Yunmeng was speechless, just staring at all this blankly, especially Li Jun's so-called self-composed track for someone, and his mind was even more blank.

As soon as his hand touched the keys, Li Jun entered a very wonderful state, his hand swam naturally on the piano, and the feeling, the surrounding environment, was completely isolated from himself.

When Liu Yunmeng's head was still blank, all of a sudden, the beautiful and fluttering sound of the piano suddenly poured into her eardrums like a breeze.
