Chapter 142: I want your imperial wine
"Wait!"
At this moment, Su Bingchang suddenly shouted: "Young man, you and I are like this, it's not interesting, why don't you add some more colors?" β
"What a lottery. Do you want money? Takaki asked back.
"Hahaha, it's not that I'm boasting, I don't care about your little money from performing arts."
Su Bingchang touched his chin, and his eyes fell on Ning Yingran's second daughter: "The bet I want is these two beauties." β
"Both, if I win, how about having a meal together? I can take you to my winery and see the best wine cellars in Xiajiang City! In addition, in my wine cellar, there is also a bottle of Emperor Yanguangwu's imperial wine from a hundred years ago! β
"Imperial wine?" Ning Yingran and Han Yuanyuan exclaimed at the same time.
Lin Chen, who has always held the attitude of watching the show, also brightened his eyes.
"Hehe, my bottle of imperial wine, but when Emperor Yanguangwu drove the imperial expedition in person, when he was crowned in the palace of Izumo Kingdom, he rewarded the imperial wine to the heroes on the scene! I dare to pack a ticket for this wine, and it will be difficult to find a second bottle in the entire Yan country! What a rarity! If you are interested, I can take you to see it, of course, it is impossible to taste it, but it is not impossible to open your eyes......"
Han Yuanyuan's eyes rolled and said, "Okay! If we lose, I'll go with you. But what if you lose? β
"I lost? How could I lose? Su Bingchang's face was full of confidence.
"Not necessarily."
"Okay." Su Bingchang loosened the watch on his wrist and said, "I'm going to lose, what do you two want, just say." As long as I Su Bingchang can give it, the two of you can mention it. β
"Okay." Han Yuanyuan raised her neck and shouted to Gao Shu: "Gao Shu, come on!" Gotta win him!
"Hmm...... Well! Gao Shu reluctantly laughed, cheered up, and said, "Okay, it's better than that!" β
"Okay, now that everyone agrees, let's get started." Su Bingchang smiled and walked over to the ten waitresses.
"Will you come first, lad, or will I come first?"
"I'll go first!"
Takaki walked up to a maid and picked up a glass of red wine from the other's hand.
First I smelled the fragrance carefully, and then tasted it again.
Immediately, I was a little overwhelmed.
In terms of the red wine he has drunk, since he became famous, Gao Shu has also drunk a lot, and has participated in many high-class drinking parties, and learned a lot about red wine from others.
So before that, he thought he knew a lot about wine.
But after taking a sip just now, Gao Shu found that he still thought about red wine too simply.
It turned out that in his mouth, these red wines were simply a taste.
With just a sip of red wine and no hints, he couldn't tell what brand of wine it was, let alone the wine fight, which asked the participants to name the year of each red wine.
Depend on!
How could this be guessed?
Seeing that Gao Shu was slow to speak, Su Bingchang sneered: "Young man, how is it?" Have you guessed what kind of wine it is? β
"I ...... I ......"
"I don't think you can guess, so let me do it."
After that, without waiting for Gao Shu to agree, Su Bingchang picked up a glass of red wine and tasted it.
"Boy, wine tasting is a science, and you have to use your tongue to discern the taste in every drop of wine. My cup is green and feels like Latour? Well, as for the vintage, I guess, it should be '68, and in '68, ChΓ’teau Latour suffered heavy rain, which affected the taste of Latour produced that year, making it slightly more sour than other vintages. β
"Well, I confirmed, this glass of red wine, it's 68 years old, Latour!"
Su Bingchang's words, the people in the lounge were stunned, and when he finished speaking, half a ring, someone came back to his senses and asked the waiter on the side: "Is what Mr. Su said right?" β
The waitress immediately stepped forward and took out a note from the waitress who served the wine in front of him.
This note was shared by every waitress, and it clearly stated the origin of the red wine they were holding.
"Everyone! Mr. So Bingchang's answer is correct! This cup is indeed Latour of 68 years! β
When everyone heard this, they all clapped their hands and applauded: "Amazing! Sure enough, he is the boss of Bordeaux style! That's amazing! This tongue should be similar to that of a professional taster, right? β
"Is there really anyone who can recognize wine just by their mouth? This tongue is too good, isn't it? β
"Awesome! That's amazing! β
Su Bingchang listened to the praise of the people around him, with a proud face, then looked at Gao Shu and asked, "Young man, do you recognize that glass of wine?" β
"I ......"
Gao Shu's face turned pale, and he didn't know what to do at all?
In the end, he could only bite the bullet and say: "This, this cup is Rafal, 87 vintage!" β
When the male host in charge of the abbot heard this, he didn't even make a move to confirm it, so he sneered: "This gentleman, you can't guess, right?" β
When the people around heard this, they immediately burst into boos.
Gao Shu's face changed, and he said, "What is there to coax!" I've been drinking for years, and I've never heard of anyone who can tell the vintage of a red wine by their tongue! In my opinion, these two people are in collusion at all! This fat man must have known what they were going to do with it! β
"Collusion?" Su Bingchang looked disdainful and pointed to the wine racks around him: "Then why don't you, young man, go find a bottle on the wall yourself and see if I can tell it?" β
"Good! You wait! β
Takaki immediately went to the bar, picked a random bottle, and poured it into the cup.
He deliberately did not choose those famous wines, but directly found a bottle of domestic red wine, just to expose the true face of the other party.
Unexpectedly, Su Bingchang just tasted it, spit it back into the cup directly, and sneered: "Young man, this restaurant uses the best imported wine to fight wine, you take a bottle of domestic wine and put it on the table?" β
This time, there was no need to ask for verification, as soon as the people around looked at the embarrassment written on Gao Shu's face, they knew that Su Bingchang was right again.
The sound of praise suddenly stopped again.
Gao Shu's face was also completely difficult to look at.
"Two beauties, in my opinion, there is no need to continue the next competition, right? Let's save some face for this one, and the two of them just need to fulfill the gambling contract. β
Su Bingchang looked at Ning Yingran and them with a pair of eyes.
He was sure that as long as he tricked the two of them into the winery, under the wine offensive, tonight would be very exciting.
Han Yuanyuan and Ning Yingran didn't expect that Gao Shu was just a strong mouth, what he said at the wine table just now was so loud, and when it was really time to perform, he shrank directly.
"What bet?" Han Yuanyuan shook her head.
"Beauty, you don't want to dump you, do you?" Su Bingchang sneered.
"No, it won't. If we lose, they should do it. β
At this moment, Lin Chen, who had not made much noise, suddenly spoke.
Hearing this, Ning Yingran immediately stomped her foot and kicked him under the table: "Lin Chen! What nonsense are you talking about? β
"May the gamble be lost, the things of the world should be like this." Lin Chen said lightly.
When Han Yuanyuan heard this, she looked at Lin Chen with disdain, she thought that Lin Chen must be timid and afraid to say such a thing!
This man!
Sure enough, as rumored, a waste one!
Is Ning Xinran blind? Would you say good things about him?
But at this moment, Lin Chen stood up, changed his words, and said, "But Mr. Su, this wine fight shouldn't be over yet, right?" β
"Lin Chen, what do you want to do?" Ning Yingran grabbed the corner of Lin Chen's clothes and asked in a low voice.
"The wine fight just now was just a round of competition. There are nine more glasses of wine to come, so let's replace them. β
As soon as Lin Chen's words came out, the scene was in an uproar.
"This kid still wants to continue fighting? Didn't he see the result just now? β
"Boss Su is the owner of the winery, and he has drunk more wine than he has drunk, and this kid also wants to compare with Boss Su?"
"Today's young people like to brag and pretend to be tough in front of beautiful women, and they don't have any real skills."
Lin Chen smiled, ignoring the cynicism of the others.
In fact, he didn't want to meddle in this matter at all, but something in Su Bingchang's hand aroused his interest.
"Boss Su, since you can bet with him that you can bet on Ning Yingran and them, then I, who are at the same table, should also be able to fight for him."
"Absolutely." Su Bingchang smiled, not thinking that he would lose at all.
"By the way, Boss Su, if I win, I want your bottle of imperial wine."
Smiling, Lin Chen said what he was willing to do, the real purpose.
