The most traditional one, and also the most widely spread, is pasta. The hollow noodles with excellent taste are delicious no matter what sauce they are paired with.
And there's tiramisu.
If Evelina hadn't ordered this dessert and introduced it to Han Qi, he wouldn't have known it was something from Italy.
Dinner was pasta with red wine, and tiramisu for dessert.
Han Qi took the red wine handed over by the waiter, looked at it, and asked: "Is this the kind of red wine you are talking about?"
Ronin made a humming sound that was obviously disdainful, because he was still eating something in his mouth. After swallowing the pasta in his mouth, he hurriedly said: "How is this possible? This is just a bottle of pasta."
It’s just ordinary red wine, the red wine from Chateau Cantao, that kind of fragrance..."
He fell into a memory.
The tall, 1.9 meter tall man actually had an expression on his face that was only seen in food shows. Evelina was not surprised and continued to eat the steak, while Han Qi was surprised and wondered how the red wine tasted.
For one hundred euros a bottle...
That's not expensive either.
In the first half of the year when Han Qi came into contact with the travel system, he ate a lot of good food in order to increase his travel points. The most expensive red wine was not to mention the 100-euro one, and he tasted the 1,000-euro red wine once, but he didn't think it tasted very good.
.
He can be considered a person who likes wine. He didn't like it when he was studying, but he started to like it after drinking good wine.
Wine is a drink with very different tastes, cheap and expensive, and the difference is not just in price. There are too many differences in taste, aroma, etc., but so far, Han Qi only likes wine, such as Irish wine.
Whiskey, Norwegian beer, etc.
But there’s nothing I particularly like.
People like Ronien are more than just likes... Han Qi thinks it's a bit morbid.
It took a long time before Ronien came back to his senses, and immediately called the waiter and asked: "Do you still have Contao red wine here?"
"No, how can we get Cantao's wine in a small place like ours? If you want to eat, you can go to a hotel in Rome."
This is just a set of industrial streets that rely on wineries. It has no actual interest relationship with Kangtao Winery. Of course, when the winery’s own production capacity is not saturated enough, it is certainly not possible to get wine. It is estimated that the boss can only drink if he wants.
I can buy it tomorrow just like individual customers.
Han Qi became very interested in this red wine.
Not only Ronyon's reaction, but also his curiosity about this winery.
A brand of red wine that has never been heard of in the world actually has such a large audience in Rome. Moreover, Han Qi looked at the outside of the winery from a distance and could imagine that it is quite large inside. Such a large-scale wine estate actually still has a large audience.
There are times when production capacity is insufficient.
How many orders do you have to get to fund such a large winery?
It seems that this car is not in vain. Otherwise, if we stay in the city, we will never know that there will be a wine party here tomorrow.
Even if he knew, he probably wouldn't be able to catch up. Han Qi still knew him very well. He would get up very late when there was nothing to do, and he wouldn't get up until ten or eleven. Even if he took the fastest car by then, he wouldn't see much excitement.
When Ronien heard the waiter say no, he looked a little regretful and said to Han Qi: "It would be great if there was. It is definitely the best wine to entertain guests like you. Although this Super Tuscan
It’s also very good, but it’s still a bit inferior to Kangtao.”
"This is pretty good." Han Qi picked up the wine glass, closed his eyes and took a sip.
He had wanted to say it before.
This meal only cost a few dollars, including two pastas, two steaks, and several desserts... I actually ordered Super Tuscan.
This wine made this meal instantly extraordinary.
Super Tuscany does not simply refer to the name of the wine, but a region in Italy that produces red wine. It is the emerald green in the mouth of the poet Xu Zhimo, and it is also the Florence that people are familiar with now. This is a very romantic name, Han Qidi
As soon as I heard the name Florence, I wanted to go there.
But it is also where the world's top red wines are produced.
The silky red wine lingered in Han Qi's mouth, with a fruity aroma. It was a kind of strawberry mixed with cherry aroma. You could also feel the earthy fragrance, and it was slightly sour... But this kind of acidity is not found in most red wines.
Some kind of taste.
If you drink red wine that is not sour at all, congratulations, it is fake wine.
Ronien smiled and said: "As long as you like it, this meal is a treat for Evelina, a rich man. Our meal now may only be her hour's income."
Evelina frowned: "What kind of rich man? How ugly."
"Oh, I said it wrong, not an hour, but half an hour."
Evelina rolled her eyes, ignored the two people chatting, and continued to eat the steak elegantly, occasionally taking a sip of wine.
Han Qi also laughed in agreement and did not inquire about their work.
The two new friends we met are very interesting. Ronin seems to have little money and relies on buses to travel. But he is confident and optimistic. This kind of person will either be rich in the future or has been rich in the past.
Probably an entrepreneur whose investment failed.
Evelina looks elegant, dignified and generous in appearance, but sometimes her personality makes Han Qi feel a bit like a big girl from Yanjing.
I don’t know what work is, but from what Ronien said, it should be about the same.
The red wine had to be tasted slowly. The three of them chatted and drank wine. Two hours passed quickly.
Evelina's work was also mentioned by Ronyon.
She is actually the assistant to the editor-in-chief of an Italian fashion magazine. She is here to attend tomorrow's event on behalf of her boss.
You can stay in this manor tonight.
Han Qi and Luo Nien could only find a place to live on the street outside.
Fortunately, although the hotel here doesn't look like much from the outside, it is still very clean inside, the air is very clear, and there is no smell in the bed or quilt.
After charging up her mobile phone, Han Qi lay on the hotel bed and looked through the photos taken today one by one.
Houses with strong Western-style architecture, sculptures, beauties dressed coolly and walking on the street... Han Qi seemed to have stopped these beauties and asked to give them the photos, but he had never done this before and was a little timid in his actions.
If you wait a little, the opportunity will be missed.
There are quite a lot of photos like this in SLR cameras. After all, it’s summer now, and beauties with good figures who wear a little less clothing are the best models in the eyes of photographers.
The next batch of photos were taken after arriving at the winery.
There are photos of the front of the manor, photos of daily life in this small street, and photos of myself, Ronyon and Evelina.
Since he didn't bring his computer with him, Han Qi solemnly selected and deleted most of the unimportant photos to make room for tomorrow's content, and then charged the camera.
At night when there is no mobile phone or computer, even Han Qi, who often considers himself a night owl, falls asleep quickly.
The next day, Han Qi was awakened by a knock on the door.
Boom, boom, boom!
"Hello? Han, are you still there?"
He barked several times in succession.
Han Qi closed his eyes tightly, but the sour feeling was still strong, but he replied: "I am here."
His voice was a little low, and he was covering his face with the quilt.
"Oh, you're awake. Evelina called me just now and said that we can enter the manor through her in advance. Do you want to go?"
Han Qi woke up a little.
He opened the quilt and sat up, rubbed his hair in confusion, and said, "I'll come down right away after I change my clothes."
"Okay, there's a cafe opposite. I'll order something first and wait for you."
The sound of footsteps gradually became less audible. He must have gone downstairs. Han Qi took out his phone and checked the time... Well, eight o'clock was almost there.
He went to bed early yesterday and probably woke up around this time.
But getting up by yourself and being woken up by others are two different concepts.
There's something about being woken up that feels wrong, but I don't know how to describe it.
Get up and wash up, take the charged mobile phone camera, pack up the cords and walk out of the hotel. The name of this place is a hotel, and it also shows on the phone that it is a hotel, but in real terms it is just a hotel or a B&B.
It only has 30% of the building and 12 rooms.
Han Qi walked down the corridor, and the boss at the door raised one hand and said hello: "Good morning, I hope you have a good time today."
"You too." Han Qi said with a smile.
This hotel is actually quite good, both in terms of hygiene and service.
There is a coffee shop next to it. I didn’t notice it when I came here at night yesterday. During the day, they would put the tables on the road outside the shop, which makes it easy to tell that it is a coffee shop. Anyway, in a place like Italy, it is arranged like this
The tables and chairs are either in restaurants or cafes.
It's not yet sunny or raining, so the store clerk didn't put umbrellas on the tables and chairs outside, and Ronyon sat on one of the chairs.
Han Qi went up and sat opposite him.
"What did Evelina say that really allowed us to go in early?"
Ronien pointed to the burgers and milk on the table and said, "Eat something first, and I'll call her later. She said she came in through a side door and just said her name. I don't know the specific situation."
"
"What magazine does she work at? I was too embarrassed to ask yesterday."
"It's called Panorama, have you heard of it?"
Han Qi felt something familiar, recalling it in his mind...
"I seem to have some impression." But I can't remember clearly.
"It is a company that focuses on impurities in luxury goods, high-end clothing, leather bags, glasses and jewelry. It is pretty good in Europe. Kangtao has never dealt with this kind of impurities before. I think there will definitely be big news today."
"Maybe."
Han Qi said something perfunctory about eating this food.
Ronien was a fan of Contao red wine, but Han Qi had never tasted Contao red wine, so he naturally didn't expect any big news to come out in the next few days.
Anyway, just watching the excitement and experiencing Italian life is enough.
The main body of the Norwegian Chinese Pavilion will be almost completed in the second half of the month. Han Qi feels that he must arrive before the main body is completed no matter what. Otherwise, the construction period of hundreds of people will be delayed. Han Qi will not do such troublesome things.
.
So he only had about twenty days in Italy.
It's best to be able to participate in activities like today, otherwise Han Qi would have to walk around and enjoy the scenery like before.
Or visit Florence and see the Leaning Tower and so on.
Being in a bit of a hurry, they both ate very quickly. Ronien came down before Han Qi. After eating, he went to call Evelina. When he came back a few minutes later, Han Qi was finishing the last piece of sandwich.
"Have you finished eating?"
"kindness."
Han Qi wiped his mouth with a tissue.
"Then let's go. She's fine now. She's waiting for us at the gate of the manor."
The two of them walked along the street. This street was originally outside the manor, so it was equivalent to walking along the side wall of the manor.
This manor looks to be quite old. Ivys from different years are wrapped around the walls. Many of the walls have fallen off, revealing the old face of the building.
Ronien introduced to Han Qi:
"If you see such a place in Italy, it is probably the manor of ancient nobles. It is difficult for others to obtain such a good land, and it is so big. This Contao winery was once owned by Count Crichouan.
The vineyard was bought by old Kang Tao more than a hundred years ago..."
After walking for a long time, I was still on the edge of the manor.
Han Qi was very envious.
He really wanted a place like this to build the house in his mind.
People in ancient times were able to build places like the Old Summer Palace, and Han Qi inherited the efforts of several of the best ancient architects during the Republic of China. If he really wanted to build a large garden, he would definitely be able to do it. It just depends on whether he wants to do it or not.
Don't want to do it.
He has always been obsessed with houses, and making money is actually to buy a better house.
After walking for a few minutes, the roadside was no longer a flower garden. There was a gravel road that could accommodate three people walking together, leading to the inside of the manor. An iron gate also appeared under the wall, and an old man holding a pipe sat on a chair.
Enjoy the soft morning sunshine.
Evelina was waiting inside. When she saw Han Qi and the others coming over, she said something to the old man and opened the door.
Han Qi took a photo of her before walking in and praised:
"You are amazing today, Evelina."
Today she is wearing a thin white windbreaker, with a high-waisted belt that perfectly shows off her figure, and a beret on her head, which makes her look formal and fashionable... She is indeed someone from a fashion magazine, no matter what her personality is,
But every move he made on his hands looked very elegant.
She proudly brushed her brown hair with her hand and said sweetly: "Really? I'm starting to like you."
Han Qi held the SLR in his right hand, spread his hands, and shrugged: "Then you can get a number plate first and choose a six-digit number you like... maybe a seven-digit number?"
"Haha, you mean there are more than a million girls who like you?"
"Who knows, maybe there will be more."
"Okay, I admit that you are a handsome young man, but I don't like you now. Let your little girlfriend with more than one million rob you and break her head."
"Ha ha."
The three of them joked for a while and slowly walked to the center of the manor.
As they were approaching, Evelina said: "Han, I need a little help from you today."
"Tell me, I think we are friends, and friends should help each other."
Evelina smiled, very satisfied with Han Qi's answer, and continued: "Our photographer is hungry and will probably have to spend the whole day in the room, so I need you to take some photos for me occasionally.
, I will tell you the details later."
Han Qi shared the photos he took with them yesterday, so Evelina also knows Han Qi's photography skills.
"It's a great honor." Han Qi said.
After two years, Han Qi is now very proficient in photography.
"I won't let your help go in vain. Later you can choose some photos that you thought were good and send them to me, but they must be related to luxury goods or fashion."
Han Qi understood instantly
Yesterday Han Qi said that he was a traveler and photographer. It seems that Evelina also took it to heart and gave herself a chance.
