Chapter 30: The Aroma of Wine
Lin Tao walked alone on the bustling streets of Kailsa City, surrounded by bustling crowds of people coming and going
Three days ago, Lin Tao left the underground Black Boxing City. And as a relaxation, Luo Tian gave Lin Tao a few days off.
When Lin Tao appeared in front of his classmates again after two months, the classmates were speechless at the incomprehensible guy in front of them. Even Veses and Tanzan couldn't help but smile wryly.
After leaving the noisy underground black boxing market full of bloody violence, Lin Tao couldn't help but be a lot more lively, and the smile on his face was much more than before.
There is no doubt that Xiao Budian is undoubtedly the most excited about Lin Tao's return. Although it looked very good in the past two months, when he saw Lin Tao, he immediately cried aggrievedly, and Lin Tao felt distressed for a while.
When Lin Tao came to the Ministry of Security with a jar of self-brewed wine, Huang Hua laughed, and after hearing that this wine was brewed by Lin Tao himself, he looked at Lin Tao with a look of surprise: "Boy, you can, I didn't expect you to make soju?" ”
Lin Tao nodded with a smile, raised his eyebrows, and made a suggestion: "Aren't you going to find a place to try my craft?"
Huang Hua took the jar of wine from Lin Tao's arms, put his nose on the altar and sniffed it, and then said with an intoxicated face: "What does this smell like? ”
It was noon, and Huang Hua and others also happened to get off work.
So, without saying a word, everyone immediately packed up their belongings and ran towards the tavern they frequented.
Along the way, the soldiers smelled the good aroma that leaked out because of the poor sealing, and couldn't help but swallow their saliva, and their faces were anxious. Although I haven't tasted the wine made by Lin Tao yet, just by virtue of this fragrance, I know that this must not be wrong.
Finally arrived at the tavern, Huang Hua finally couldn't hold back his temperament and snatched the jar held by his subordinates, pressed the mouth of the altar with one hand, and shouted at the shopkeeper: "Jim, bring me all your delicious things, we don't have to be on duty in the afternoon, we don't have to get drunk and don't go home." ”
The shopkeeper smiled and nodded, "Then how many bottles of soju do you want?" ”
Huang Hua smiled and glanced at the shopkeeper Jim, stretched out his hand and patted the jar in his hand, and said, "There is no need for wine, we brought it ourselves today!"
When the ordered dishes finally came up, a group of people finally couldn't hold back......
Lin Tao was funny watching from the sidelines, these people are really a group of drunkards, so it is not surprising that there is such a reaction. Indeed, in all fairness, although the production process of this sake is much rougher, the taste and aroma of the sake are not comparable to those of Izumo Continent. It's normal for people to have such a reaction.
When Huang Hua tore open the seal at the mouth of the altar, a rich aroma instantly swarmed into everyone's nostrils.
For a while, everyone couldn't help but smell the aroma that wrapped them with an intoxicated face, and they couldn't wait to smell enough.
Huang Hua took a deep breath, and only when his lungs were already filled with this pleasant aroma that he could no longer tolerate a slight, did he slowly exhale the air in his lungs. looked at Lin Tao with a lingering look on his face, and asked, "Brother, is this really brewed by you?"
Lin Tao nodded and said, "Yes, Brother Huang, what's wrong?"
Huang Hua shook his head with a smile and said, "It's nothing, I just think it's incredible." I haven't tasted it yet, but the fun aroma alone makes me want to stop. I really didn't expect you to have this hand, and you can make such a fragrant wine, but the taste of this wine is not good, but the aroma is already attractive enough. The last time I drank here, you said that you would make wine, I didn't believe it yet, but now I think about it, I'm really ashamed, I didn't expect you to be so powerful, brother, haha!"
Lin Tao smiled, his face was not red and his heart was not beating, he was not moved to blush by his appreciation of Huanghua, nor was he moved to be ashamed because he plagiarized other people's achievements and put them on his own head. In Lin Tao's opinion, in any case, in the Izumo Continent, this wine was the first to be brewed by himself, and he was not embarrassed.
Looking at the impatient appearance of a group of subordinates, Huang Hua couldn't help but feel a burst of amusement, and suddenly shouted: "Come, come, hurry up and pour wine for the brothers to taste the craftsmanship of Brother Lin Tao." ”
When the glass in front of me was filled with wine, the rich aroma seemed to be even more fragrant. Even those tavern guests sitting at other tables couldn't help but swallow their saliva when they smelled this fragrant question, and looked at the wine in front of Lin Tao with a puzzled, surprised, and envious expression, and when they smelled the wine provided by the tavern in front of them, they suddenly lost interest.
It's not better than not knowing, it's more frightening. There is no comparison between the two, in terms of the aroma of the wine. One in the sky and one on the earth.
At this time, a dissatisfied guest shouted, called the hotel owner Jim, and asked, "Boss, why is their wine different from ours? Didn't I tell you just now? I want you to bring me your best wine, but what are you serving here, is it pig urine? It is so different from other people's wine!"
In all fairness, he was exaggerating. In fact, the wine in this tavern is excellent even in the whole city of Kelsa, and it tastes pretty good. It's just that compared with the wine made by Lin Tao, it is too different.
If you want to blame, you can only blame the winemaking technology of the two worlds, and the winemaking technology is too poor.
Jim, the owner of the hotel, looked at the wine on Lin Tao's table helplessly, and then looked at the wine sold by his family, and indeed felt the previous gap, and suddenly had a sad expression on his face, and explained: "Sir, I'm really embarrassed." This wine is indeed the best wine in our shop. The wine of the guests at that table was not sold by us, but they brought it themselves. ”
The guests shook their heads helplessly.
Everyone had an anxious expression on their faces, smelling the fragrant kiss in the cup, and they couldn't bear it anymore at this time. Pick up the cup and drink it all, just like an old cow drinking water, where there is a fine taste.
After drinking, a soldier said with an intoxicated face: "This wine is not just fragrant, it is spicy in the mouth, and then sweet, and there is a hint of sweetness, it is really a good wine!"
The others nodded their heads and agreed with him.
Huang Hua was the last of the group to drink it all, and the soldier couldn't help but ask Huang Hua with a curious expression, "Captain, isn't this wine delicious? Why are you drinking so slowly?" ”
Huang Hua suddenly glanced at the soldier angrily, and said, "Needless to say, of course it's delicious, I drink it so slowly, it's called wine tasting." Do you know that the two ways of tasting wine taste are different. ”
When the soldiers heard this, they felt that it made sense. At this time, someone put forward the idea of asking for another cup, but he didn't want to be opposed by Huanghua, "It's no problem to drink, but my brother Lin Tao only brewed one jar, which is not enough for us to drink for a few rounds." What are you going to do when you're done drinking later?"
Thinking of this, everyone couldn't help but feel bitter. Indeed, after drinking such a delicious wine, I am afraid that I will not have an appetite at all if I go to drink other wine.
Lin Tao smiled and said, "This is not a problem, everyone can drink good wine, it's a big deal that I will brew more next time." ”
Speaking of this, Huang Hua shook his head with a wry smile, "Brother, how will you let us live in the future." You said why didn't you brew more last time, just a little, it's not enough for us to drink. If we are brewing this time, we will have to wait for a long time, what will you let us do during this time. Every day, the wine worm in this stomach must not be sad to death. ”
Huang Hua and the others are all soldiers, so they naturally speak with a loud voice. Just now, the other guests in the tavern were already seduced by the aroma of the wine on this table, and they couldn't hold back any longer when they heard their conversation again. If it weren't for the identity of Huang Hua and the others as non-commissioned officers of the Ministry of Public Security, they would have come up to drink a long time ago.
Just when everyone was eating and drinking, Jim, the owner of the hotel, walked to everyone's side with a sad face, looking at the laughter of the people at this table, he couldn't help but stop talking.
Huang Hua saw Jim's expression and asked puzzledly, "Jim, what do you have to say?"
Jim nodded and said, "I said, Lord Huang, you can be regarded as making me miserable now."
Huang Hua asked inexplicably, "What's wrong?"
"Needless to ask, when you didn't bring this wine, the other guests ate and drank happily, but when they smelled the wine you drank, they couldn't drink it anymore. I'll admit that your wine tastes good, but ...... Can ......"
"What do they want?"
"At first they asked me for this wine, but you brought it with you, and I sold it somewhere, and they did not give up on asking me to ask you for some to drink. After speaking, Jim looked at Huanghua with an embarrassed face, and his heart was slightly worried. After many years of friendship, he naturally knows Huang Hua's fiery temper.
Sure enough, as soon as Huang Hua heard this, the anger came up all of a sudden, and after drinking again, he slapped the table with a "bang", and suddenly the tableware on the table rang out.
I saw Huang Hua look around the tavern for a week, and then snorted angrily: "This wine is not much, we don't have enough to drink ourselves, we don't sell it or give it, don't be embarrassed for Jim." ”
When the guests saw Huang Hua getting angry, they didn't dare to be angry because of Huang Hua's identity, so they only broke off their thoughts about drinking and ate food. However, the more they ate and drank, the more uncomfortable they felt, and the wonderful questions kept coming into their noses, which made them want to take a sip of their own bar. I don't know why, I used to think this wine was good, but now it tastes like water.
As soon as they thought of this, this group of guests could no longer stand this kind of torment that they could smell but could not drink, so they hurriedly finished their meal, checked out and left.
Jim, the hotel owner on the side, was simply crying when he saw such a situation, but he was helpless. He didn't dare to complain to Huang Hua and the others anymore......
