Chapter 391 [Opening the Champagne]
After Yang Nianzhong took Paul George to visit the main building of Swan Castle, Yang Nianzhong took Paul George to his underground wine cellar, and Westerners are very concerned about the variety and quantity of wine in their own wine cellar.
It can be seen from the wine storage in the cellar that the owner's taste and economic strength are the best proof, so when Westerners have friends to visit the house, the host will bring friends to the underground wine cellar to take a look at their collections, and choosing a bottle of table wine Yang Nianzhong is no exception.
Paul George was very impressed when he saw these famous wines collected by Yang Nianzhong, but he didn't expect to be taken by Yang Nianzhong to the edge of an electronic wine cabinet, and when he looked inside, Paul George gasped.
Pointing to the dozen or so bottles stored in the wine cabinet without trademarks and dirty on the outside, those wine bottles looked at Yang Nianzhong in surprise and asked with a star. "David, don't tell me, those dozen bottles of champagne are all Tsar's champagne."
Seeing the other party's surprised expression, Yang Nianzhong smiled, and said happily when he smiled. "I didn't expect Paul, you also have such a study of top wines, yes, these dozen bottles of champagne are Tsar Champagne, let's open a bottle when you come today and celebrate it."
Paul George stared at Yang Nianzhong and said, "David, what you said is true?" You're not kidding me. ”
Yang Nianzhong laughed, laughing so much that tears were about to come out, patted Paul George on the shoulder and said, "Why am I lying to you?" Isn't wine for drinking? What's more, drinking with good friends can reflect the preciousness of Tsar Champagne, and only you can be worthy of Tsar Champagne. ”
Paul George wants to say that it is fake if he is not moved, nodded and looked at Yang Nianzhong and said in admiration. "David, I understand your affection, but I still don't want Tsar Champagne, he is too precious, in the past 78 years, our Sotheby's auction house has only auctioned about 120 bottles of Tsar Champagne in all continents."
"It's the world's largest auction of 120 bottles of Tsar Champagne in 78 years, and each bottle is an extremely precious piece of liquid art, which is meant to be collected, not drunk."
Can Yang Nianzhong not know the preciousness of Tsar Champagne? Only such a precious champagne can express his cherishment of Paul George's friend, and to be honest, it is also to please Paul George.
Yang Nianzhong wants to become friends with the president of Sotheby's Asia, and when the time comes, the treasures he finds can be sent to Sotheby's auction house for auction to get more benefits.
Although both sides take what they need, do they make friends without putting in the output? Therefore, Yang Nianzhong cares about practical interests, not those so-called precious champagnes.
I opened the wine cabinet of Tsar Champagne and took out a bottle of champagne from inside, and threw it to Paul George next to him, who held the bottle of champagne as if he were holding a peerless treasure.
While laughing with Yang Nianzhong, chatting about what this champagne tastes like? To be honest, Paul George has never drunk it, and Yang Nianzhong has never drunk it, and he doesn't know what it tastes like.
While walking in the direction of the restaurant, at this time, all the restaurants of the Yang family's Swan Castle were arranged according to the highest specifications, and all the flowers and candles came.
Exquisite porcelain is placed on the edge of the dining table, and today Yang Nianzhong's family hired a Chinese chef, and all the eighteen martial arts have died for me, making more than 28 dishes.
In order to take care of Paul George's eating habits, these 28 Chinese dishes are all served in the way of Western food, one by one in order, when Yang Nianzhong took Paul George to the restaurant, the people of the Yang family were already standing on the side to greet him.
Everyone sat down, Yang Nianzhong took the bottle of Tsar Champagne, opened the metal film on it and gently shook the bottle, opened the fixture of the champagne head, and pulled out the champagne lid little by little.
Then with a flick of his finger, the champagne lid slammed onto the ceiling, and some of the foam of the champagne liquid poured out of the bottle, and as soon as the foam came out, everyone present smelled a sweet smell.
The smell seems to be not only sweet, but also has a cooling effect, and when you close your eyes, you feel it, like you are standing on the Arctic ice field and smelling the cool air. There was a sweet smell in the air, which made people's minds feel refreshed, and their consciousness began to slowly become clear.
Tsar's Champagne has been sleeping on the cold bottom of the Baltic Sea for so many years, and the champagne in the bottle has long been different, and the taste is very unique and refreshing.
After opening the champagne, I poured it into the champagne goblet one by one, but I didn't expect the color of the Tsar's champagne to be golden yellow, and compared with other champagnes, it was slightly viscous
The bubbles were evenly distributed and very densely distributed, everyone was holding half a glass of champagne, everyone stood up from their chairs, and Yang Nianzhong said a toast. On behalf of the Yang family, he welcomed Paul George as a guest, he has become good friends with Paul George, and his home will be Paul George's home in the future, and I hope he will often come back to gather with the people of the Yang family.
Anyway, what is good to hear, a few simple words, so that Paul George's heart warms, Paul George is the president of Sotheby's Asia and has been in contact with Asians for a long time, and knows how much Oriental people value the concept of friends, and sometimes treat friends as their own family and their own brothers.
The reason why he knows the habit of making friends in the East is that Paul George is so moved, and Yang Nianzhong, a friend who is very worthy of contact, can not only bring profits to their company, but also bring benefits to himself. With such a strong foreign aid, even at the headquarters of Sotheby's, his right to speak will be respected.
So Paul George was very moved and climbed up the pole, took over the topic and thanked the Yang family for their warm hospitality, and thanked Yang Nianzhong for the sincere treatment of this good friend. didn't say that the two sides will be brothers in the future, George's age is more than ten years older than Yang Nianzhong, and he is considered a big brother, so he treats his brother quite well.
Hello everyone, hello everyone, the atmosphere was pushed to the climax, and the meal was so enjoyable, especially the cool and sweet taste of Tsar Champagne was fascinating.
And the alcohol content is still relatively low, and the taste is so strong that people can't stop it, a glass of left and a glass of right, to be honest, not to mention the precious tsar, even if it is an ordinary champagne, his capacity is much higher than that of red wine.
Although there are a lot of people sitting at the table eating, it is a bit difficult to kill all the champagnes, and you can drink about 3/4 of the time. The remaining 1/4 is covered and stored in the wine cabinet for a few days, but the remaining half of the bottle must be drunk within a few days, otherwise the champagne will run out of flavor.
After eating and drinking, the ladies in the house could rest, Yang Nianzhong took John and Paul George to the exhibition hall on the first floor that had been cleaned up and arranged, and saw those ivory carving artworks.
To Paul George's eyes, the president of Sotheby's auction house in Asia, this batch of organic gemstone carvings is not only exquisite workmanship, exquisite raw materials, but also extremely large, the largest carvings can weigh more than ten kilograms.
The smallest carvings are only a few tens of grams, and there are about 5,000 works of art, of course, 5,000 pieces of art cannot be displayed in this exhibition hall. Many of them are in boxes, and the exhibits are all top-notch ivory artworks, which can be regarded as samples, and even then Paul George feels very satisfied.
Set a small goal first, such as remembering in 1 second: book guest residence
