"What a strong aroma of wine."

The strong man walked out of the dark room, took a deep breath, and said with an intoxicated expression.

The sky in the Dionysus Gorge presents a clear state rarely seen in other gullies, with white clouds floating on the azure sky.

Under the sky, there are huge warehouses lined up in a row. The tall chimneys of the warehouses spurt out pale white steam. The billowing steam melts in the air, and the rich aroma of wine floats everywhere.

Su Wu looked at the scene in front of him and read many painted words on the walls of the tall warehouses.

‘East Saint Winery’.

‘Grain storage plant’.

‘cellar pool’.

‘Distillery’.



All the warehouse buildings in the entire Dionysus Valley are owned by the Dongsheng Winery and are the production workshops of the Dongsheng Winery.

"Is there only one winery in Dionysian Valley, Dongsheng Winery?" Su Wu looked at the rows of warehouse buildings in front of him and asked the strong man next to him.

"Among the thousands of ravines, only the Dionysus Valley produces wine. There is only one Dongsheng Winery in the Dionysus Valley, so there is only one Dongsheng Winery in the whole world that makes and sells wine." The strong man sucked hard.

He rubbed his nose a few times and answered Su Wu with a smile.

Su Wu nodded.

Stepping towards the large wine jars that surrounded many tall warehouses.

Those wine jars are stacked one on top of another around the Dongsheng Winery, which has become the outer wall of the entire Dongsheng Winery. Many ropes and wooden ladders are lowered from the wine jars piled high.

, many figures used those rope ladders to go up and down the ropes. These people are all employees of Dongsheng Winery.

Their residence is the wine jars.

"Dongsheng Winery is equivalent to owning the entire Dionysian Valley, so who is in charge of this winery?

Are you also from a 'wall man' background?" Su Wu walked towards the stacked wine jars while talking to the strong man behind him.

"Dongsheng Winery has the 'Jijiu Master' and 'Jiaochi Master' who were born from the wall, and there are also the 'Bartender' and 'Jiu Tasting Master' who were born from local people, but who is in charge of the entire Dongsheng Winery...

...but this is impossible to say.

Most of the time, the three great masters, who have higher status than the "Jijiu Master", "Jiaochi Master", and "Bartending Master", take turns in charge of the entire Dongsheng Winery.

These three great masters are not fixed either.

They were elected by "self-determination" from among the employees of Dongsheng Winery. When each Grand Master takes charge of Dongsheng Winery, the body of the wine produced by Dongsheng Winery will change significantly, and the "smell" of the wine will change significantly.

, there will be various differences in 'front notes', 'taste', and 'aftertaste'. It can be said that the Dongsheng Liquor of this period and the Dongsheng Liquor of the previous period are just like two different wines.

!" As the strong man spoke, he changed the topic to drinks.

Su Wu approached the rows of wine jars - the residence of workers in the factory.

Among the many wine jars, the smallest one is only as big as a fist, and there are people living in it.

The largest one is as big as a hut.

Su Wu came here mainly to look for 'Zhang Shuangguo'.

In his reply to Su Wu, Zhang Shuangguo clearly informed Su Wu of his residence.

‘East Shengqi District, Blue and White Jade Porcelain District, Room 127 on the third floor’.

Su Wu was currently in the 'East Shengqi Area'. A wooden sign was erected in front of the room with layers of wine jars. Su Wu stood in front of these many wine jars. At a glance, he could see various wine jars made of different materials.

The vessels were lined up in several rows, and the place where he stood belonged to the 'pottery area'.

He identified the location of the higher-grade blue and white jade porcelain and walked towards it.

There were many people coming and going along the way, all wearing the work uniforms of Dongsheng Winery. Su Wu walked past them and could smell the various aromas, sour smells and odors of fermented grains emitted from them.

“Each of the three Grand Masters is ‘self-elected’ by the employees of Dongsheng Winery.

As a result, Dongsheng Winery continues to this day, and there must be hundreds of great masters, right?" Su Wu asked.

"There are still three of them." The strong man said while looking at the many vessels with different craftsmanship and materials around him.

Su Wu frowned: "Why are there only three?

Could it be that since the establishment of Dongshengjiu, these three great masters have not finished taking turns?"

The 'grandpas' and 'grandpas' in this world are very different from ordinary people. They can live 'outside' the boundaries and can go in and out 'inside and out' at will - Su Wu speculated that in this dream world

, after all, ordinary people are just a 'part' of an unknown existence's dream. They have no way to escape from the dream. Once they escape from the dream, they will 'die from the light' and 'turn' on the spot.

The existence of the 'grandfather' and 'grandfather' generation is different.

They may have the ability to walk on the edge of dreams and reality, so they can leave the boundary and contact the outside world.

Even, they can truly enter reality and become real 'people' in the eyes of others!

The three great masters of Dongsheng Winery have reached such a level, and each has been in charge of the winery for hundreds of thousands of years. The rotation of the three people has not yet been completed, which seems reasonable to Su Wu.

However, the strong man shook his head when he heard this: "How come the rotation has not been completed?

Dongsheng Winery has had more than 100 great masters in rotation.

Basically, one has to be replaced every year, and every three years a new set of Grand Masters has to be selected."

"Then how come there are only three great masters?

Is the new Supreme Master who has been replaced no longer the Supreme Master?" Su Wu asked again.

In Su Wu's opinion, this strong man from Mantou Mountain was not an ordinary person. He could always give answers to any questions he asked, which showed that he was extraordinary.

Su Wu guessed that he might be the person sent by the 'existence in the dark' to guide him.

"Every master of Dongsheng Winery needs to step into the cellar during the year of 'duty', so that he can complement the aroma accumulated in the cellar to brew wine.

Wait until their shift is completed.

Naturally, they completely melted and dissipated.

Where would anything be left?

If this happens from generation to generation, naturally there will always be only three great masters." The strong man replied nonchalantly.

Su Wu paused after hearing this and said: "The so-called Dongsheng Distillery employees self-determined to elect three great masters, in fact, they finally chose three people to die?!"

"That's right." The strong man said matter-of-factly, "Everyone will die.

No one can live forever.

After those "people on the wall" became cellar workers, their strong emotions would also infiltrate into the koji during the process of brewing the koji. When the blenders prepared the wine, the wine slurry would also infiltrate them - all brewing

Every step in the process consumes the life of the worker.

In my opinion, instead of being a brewer, living hard for more than ten years, and finally being completely transformed into wine, it is better to be selected to be the Supreme Master and use oneself to brew unique wine.

Dominate the direction of the entire Dongsheng Winery for a year!"

Su Wu was silent for a while.

He glanced at the strong man and said, "Because you are not a winery worker, you will naturally say this."

The strong man opened his mouth, but was speechless by Su Wu's words.

He is indeed not a winery worker.

If he were a winery worker, he would definitely not want to live for only one year before dying.

Round, square, long-necked, short-necked, and round-bellied blue and white porcelain vases were stacked up into a mountain. Many people walked in and out of the mouths of the blue and white porcelain vases along the rope ladder.

The strong man looked at the many porcelain bottles in the blue and white jade porcelain area and sighed: "Grandpa Tian, ​​your friend should also be a well-established worker in the Dongsheng Winery... It is very good to be able to get a residence in the blue and white jade porcelain area.

Already."

"They all live in bottles and jars, so what's the difference between them?" Su Wu shook his head.

The strong man disagreed: "If you want to put it this way, people either live in stacked squares or in bottles and jars. What are the bottles and jars doing after pursuing these blocks?

It's always because these things are assigned various different values.

So people always look at these things with a veil.

People are always affected by other people's opinions."

"You're right." Su Wu nodded.

His eyes searched among the mountains of blue and white porcelain vases, and he soon found the 'Room 127 on the third floor' - a round-bellied general vase stood there, with a rope ladder extending from the mouth of the vase.

However, even though he had found Zhang Shuangguo's residence, he could not rashly crawl into someone else's house now.

——The main entrance of every 'residential complex' is guarded by someone.

Just when Su Wu was considering whether to send another letter to Zhang Shuangguo, someone suddenly tapped him on the shoulder. He turned around and saw 'Zhang Shuangguo' standing behind him wearing work clothes, with a strong aroma of wine coming from him.

spread out.

Zhang Shuangguo's face was full of exhaustion. While his body exuded a strong aroma of wine, his figure also became a little unreal.

——Brewing will consume the lifespan of brewing workers!

He must have just gotten off work. When he saw Su Wu, a smile appeared on his tired face: "Benefactor, I thought it would take a few days for you to arrive, but I didn't expect you to come so early.

Come on, come home with me first."

"You can actually recognize me right away?" Su Wu said with some surprise after hearing Zhang Shuangguo's words.

He had never had any interaction with Zhang Shuangguo before. In this dream world, he only sent Zhang Shuangguo's memories, but to his surprise, the other party seemed to recognize him directly.

"You have the aroma of my secret wine.

Of course I know him." Zhang Shuangguo replied with a smile. He glanced at the smiling strong man next to Su Wu and said, "I brought some wine back from the factory, and I'll make some dishes later.

Let’s talk over a drink.”

"Okay." Su Wu nodded.

The strong man next to him was overjoyed when he heard that he could have a drink today. He also nodded quickly and thanked Zhang Shuangguo repeatedly.

With Zhang Shuangguo leading the way, the guard at the door naturally did not stop Su and Wu.

The three of them climbed up to the third floor of the Blue and White Porcelain Vase Mountain and entered Zhang Shuangguo's residence.
