Chapter 239: Kill Me

Is there a deadline for completing such an impossible task?

Gao Yuxing couldn't help but be stunned, and was about to ask Xia Yan how long it would take, when he saw her bow her head and think about it seriously, and said with a smile: "One year, I'll give you a year." ”

Gao Yuxing's question that was about to blurt out suddenly stuck in his throat, and he couldn't make a sound anymore.

It's not a dream, yes, it must be, otherwise how could you hear such earth-shattering news.

He reached out and slapped himself in the face a few times.

Hurt......

That proves that you are not in a dream, so to speak......

Everything he just heard was true!

God! What kind of sin have you done to deserve this kind of punishment!

It took a year to brew the wine that swept China, or use that recipe written out randomly, and he didn't have the ability to kill him!

If it's just to brew ordinary wine, it's a big deal to take out those semi-finished products by her will, but Xia Yan wants a wine that can be popular in China!

Who doesn't know that the more wine is hidden, the more fragrant it is, ordinary wine needs to be stored for three or five years before it can be entered, what can you do in this year?

Just when Gao Yuxing was about to snor, he heard Xia Yan add: "I could have given you more time, but my goal is to win the first place in the wine fighting conference in a year, so ...... I've worked hard for you this year. ”

As soon as these words came out, it was like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, which made Gao Yuxing stunned in place.

His whole brain was so stunned that he almost lost the ability to think.

At this point, he didn't know how to react.

Brewing a wine in a year that can participate in a wine fight? Does this wine still have to come out on top?

Gao Yuxing really wanted to find a knife and cut himself off directly, he regretted it very much, he shouldn't have been, he shouldn't have been in a hurry, and he took it over before he figured out what Xia Yan was entrusting.

Isn't that shooting yourself in the foot? Didn't you dig a pit with your own hands and bury yourself alive?

Attending a wine fight?

He can go, with the face of the eldest young master of the Gao family, he still knows a few friends who can speak at the wine fighting conference, and it is a big deal to go cheekily, even if it costs more silver to exchange for a past ranking that can be seen.

Although this is a bit insulting to the wine-making industry, he will definitely suffer from the ridicule and scolding of others, but these don't matter to him, he is not interested in winemaking, and he has no credibility to say in this industry, how can he care about that little reputation, not to mention that this is Xia Yan's wish, even if he fights his entire net worth and face, he is willing.

But what does it mean to come out on top?

Do you mean to get the name of "King of Wine"?

Isn't that a joke?

If the "Wine King" is so good, his father will not have to work hard to protect the reputation of the Gao family's "Wine King Wine", and his mother will not be tired to death because of such a name.

Yes, although the wine fighting conference is held every three years, the winners of this "wine king" have been their masters in recent decades.

Although he didn't like the Gao family's wine, he couldn't admit that his wine was indeed the best wine produced in Qin County.

In particular, the sorghum wine, which can win the crown at every wine fighting conference, can be called the best wine, even if you have silver, you may not be able to buy it.

The brewing process is extremely complex, and it takes a lot of effort from the selection of ingredients to the production of the wine.

Ordinary wine is good as long as the raw materials are not insects and mildew, but this kind of wine of the Gao family not only has to ensure the quality, but also has requirements for the appearance.

The sorghum used to make this wine is specially sifted, first sieved with a special sieve, probably to remove those dry and small sorghum, and then sorted by manpower, only the large and full grains are left, and finally the master of winemaking comes to select one grain by one, their goal is only one, that is, to make these sorghum the same size, although there is no guarantee that the score is exactly the same, but there is really no difference from the naked eye.

As soon as this selection of materials is passed, there are many door cards, which requires a lot of manpower and material resources, not to mention the winemaking behind.

Helplessly, this wine is unique to the Gao family, his father has never revealed a word to him, and he is more like a thief to guard against everyone, he just wants to steal and has no chance to learn, so he doesn't know how this wine is made.

In Gao Yuxing's memory, the brewing method of this wine seems to be known only to his father and his biological mother, as well as the two brewing masters who have been in the Gao family for decades. During the winemaking season, his father would leave everything on his hand and go to the brewery to make his own wine, which was a few months.

In the days when Gao Yuxing's biological mother was still there, it was okay for the husband and wife to cooperate with each other, although they were tired, they could still resist.

Can ...... now Gao Yuxing only felt that his father's face looked more and more haggard year by year.

In this situation of very little manpower, the Gao family can only produce more than 100 jars of this wine every year, so it has long reached the point where the supply exceeds demand outside.

If you want to buy this kind of wine, you can't only have money, but you also have a noble status, but if there are not 1,000 people with noble status in China, there are 500, and more than 100 jars of wine are not enough for them to share.

Later, it doesn't work to be noble alone, you have to be powerful and powerful, anyway, there is only so much wine, and whoever can get it can only fight for it by ability, to see whose official title can overpower whom.

It's not that no one wants to grab it with the power in their hands, but they can only think about it in their hearts, don't you see that even the royal procurement office is obediently queuing up to buy, and even people can only buy a few jars a year for the emperor to try. They're thankful they can get an altar, but what more do they want to hope for? With the support of the royal family, how dare these people use such crooked brains? Against the emperor, they are really full.

Today, this kind of wine produced by the Gao family is almost exclusively for the powerful, if ordinary people can drink a sip, it is happier than the New Year, and it is not a problem to show off in front of people for a year and a half.

It is precisely because for decades that this wine has won the championship in the wine fighting conference, and has won the title of "King of Wine" more than a dozen times, and over time people have called this wine "King of Wine" wine, but few people remember the name of its own name, and even Gao Yuxing does not know what the original name of this wine is.

Therefore, if you want to win the championship in the wine fighting conference, you must make a wine that can surpass the "wine king" of the Gao family.

Even the kind of 100-year-old wine that is almost invisible is not guaranteed to win the "wine king", and how can they win the new wine that they want to make in a year like they have no origin.

Gao Yuxing never even thought about this, how could Xia Yan say it so easily.

Anyway, if you give Gao Yu another hundred guts, he won't dare to let out such words.

If he was given a choice, he would rather choose the kind of wine that would be brewed in the country.

Fighting with the "Wine King"? Isn't this brain water?

Gao Yuxing really believes that Xia Yan is a complete layman, and she is really a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers, and dares to think about anything.

"Well, it's easy." Seeing that Gao Yuxing was just stunned and didn't give a reaction for a long time, Xia Yan smiled and patted him lightly on the shoulder, "If you don't answer, I'll take you as a default, Lao Gao, I'll leave everything to you, I'm optimistic about you." ”

Being slapped by Xia Yan like this, Gao Yuxing finally came to his senses, knelt on the ground, and howled loudly: "Big sister!" Kill me! ”

"Why?" Xia Yan tilted his head, looking unclear, "Old Gao, so dignified, why are you looking for death?" Didn't we say okay, you're going to help me make wine? If I kill you, who will make wine for me? ”

"Big sister, are you serious?" Gao Yuxing only hoped that he had been deceived by her, and looked at her with hope, only hoping to hear a different answer from just now, "Are you really going to participate in the wine fight?" ”

"That's right." Xia Yan nodded firmly, "I have a reason to participate." ”

"But ......" President Gao Yu breathed a sigh of relief, trying to relax himself, "Do you know how high the threshold for participating in the wine fighting conference is, and how rare the name of 'Wine King' is?" ”

"I ......" Xia Yan lowered his head and didn't answer for a long time, as if he was thinking about something carefully.

Great, there's a play!

Xia Yan's thoughtful appearance made Gao Yuxing suddenly feel that there was still a way out of this matter, and he finally didn't have to go to the wine fighting conference, let alone face the mountain that the "wine king" could never climb!

Gao Yuxing really felt that he had picked up a small life, and he couldn't help but be happy, but he felt that he was in a better mood at the moment.

But his good mood didn't last long after all, and after a few breaths, he heard Xia Yan say slowly: "Of course I know, knowing yourself and knowing your opponent can survive a hundred battles, since you want to go to the wine fighting conference to fight, of course, you have to inquire in advance what is going on." ”

"You know? You know! Gao Yuxing's eyes were round, as if he was on the verge of collapse, and he would burst out at any time, "You know something!" ”

"The wine fighting conference is held every three years, and it has a history of 100 years." Xia Yan didn't seem to see Gao Yuxing's exaggerated expression, and said to himself, "Although this conference was held in Qin County, it was not only the wine produced in Qin County that came to participate in the competition. On the eve of the competition, dozens or even hundreds of wines will gather here, although most of them are wineries from China, but there will also be wineries from other countries to fight here. At that time, wine lovers from all over the world will come to watch the wine fight on the one hand, but they are also here to drink, so many miles to come so far to be able to taste different delicacies in the same place. I heard my brother say that at the last wine fight, he saw a lot of wild people. You must know that the wilderness has been at war with our Huaguo for many years, and it has long reached the point where water and fire are incompatible, and it is even more evident that we can see people from the west at this juncture, which proves that our Qinxian wine fighting conference is infinitely charming. ”
