Chapter 1,724: Catch the ducks and put them on the shelves
Chu Heng chatted with Malkin and the others for a while, and then other guests came over.
"Sorry, everyone, I need to excuse myself for a moment to greet other guests. I hope you understand."
"It's okay, Chu, go and do your work, we'll talk later."
After Chu Heng left them with an apologetic look, he turned into a social butterfly and continued to entertain others.
In this way, the time soon came to five o'clock, and it was also the start time of the wine tasting.
There were more guests than previously determined, more than sixty in total. Fortunately, Chu Heng and the others had prepared a lot of blank name tags, and there was nothing rude about them.
At this time, Chu Heng was standing at the door waiting for time. Seeing that it was already five o'clock and there were no guests showing up, he ordered the waiter at the door: "You two are troubled, please close the door."
After saying that, he stepped into the noisy banquet hall, and the door slowly closed behind him.
Everyone in the room had rehearsed the process countless times. Qian Ding and others immediately received the signal and took action.
"Bah bang bang!"
The lights on the ceiling were turned off one by one, leaving only a few for illumination. The light in the room dimmed instantly, and then the lights on the rostrum were turned on, bright and dazzling.
"Tap tap tap."
As the host, Li Jiangqi appeared wearing red high-heeled shoes, with a delicate and picturesque face lightly painted with pink and white, and a graceful figure. With her cold temperament, she looked extremely cool against the background of her black dress, making her
The eyes of many men in the field lit up and they wanted to conquer.
She walked slowly to the center of the rostrum, with a faint perfunctory smile on her face, and her voice was as beautiful as beads falling on a jade plate: "Ladies and gentlemen, good evening, everyone, this is the first session of the 49th City.
At the reception, on behalf of the organizer, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, I would like to extend my most sincere welcome to all distinguished guests..."
She gave a useless opening speech, and then introduced the format of the wine tasting, such as everyone being able to vote for their favorite wine, etc.
Then he said at the end: "In order to make this wine tasting less dull and more interesting, our leader Comrade Chu Heng has specially prepared a small game for everyone. We will set up a prize pool. Guests can give their own ideas for what they think."
Bet on the best wine. Each bet costs ten yuan. There is no upper limit on the quantity. The guests who win the championship wine will share the funds in the prize pool equally according to the amount you bet. This is a test of tasting ability.
The game, I hope everyone will like it.”
"Wow!"
"Haha, as expected of Chu, I think this wine tasting is much more interesting now."
"This game seems to have been set up just for me. Look, I will definitely win!"
"Come on, can you taste wine with that mouth of yours that often drinks foot-washing water?"
Many guests in the venue suddenly lit up when they heard this, and they were all eager to give it a try.
Because of this small game, this wine tasting has become a bit of a competition. If you choose the champion wine, you will not only win money, but also get the title of an expert, which can be said to be both fame and fortune.
How can these flamboyant foreign devils not be tempted by this?
Ever since, when Li Jiangqi got off the podium, all the guests rushed to the wine area and actively tasted every kind of wine.
The most serious among them was an official from the Gallic Agency named Keitaan Little.
As a purebred Gaulish, what he is most proud of is his ability to appreciate wine. Some people even call him a master of wine tasting, so he must participate in this game today and he must win.
Because it's about his reputation.
Therefore, Lee Teuk was in a very bad mood at this time.
In fact, this game is of no benefit to him at all. If he wins, he will just get some pitiful bonuses, but if he loses, he will be questioned a lot, and his reputation will even be shaken.
It’s almost like I went to my grandma’s house!
If he had known that this wine tasting party would have such a bad game, he would not have come even to death!
"Thanks."
Liteuk, who was driven away from the store, picked up a goblet from the table. There was a little red wine in it, not much, almost two or three ounces.
A wine tasting party is a party where people taste wine, not drink it, so the amount of each wine is very small.
After Lite picked up the wine glass, he faced it against the white wall, carefully observed the color of the wine for a while, put it in front of his nose and smelled it, then took a small sip to feel the taste, then spit it out, and finally
Just rinse your mouth with water.
Immediately, he took out his pen and a phone book, carefully wrote down his evaluation of this wine, and then tasted the next one.
The operation looks professional at first glance.
And with his comparison, some other guests in the venue performed much better, especially Malkin. He picked up the cup and drank it, then smashed it, and a few popped out, such as good, delicious, and so-so.
I waited for a few simple reviews, then went to try the next one, and soon I was drunk.
that's all.
An hour passed quickly, and the guests finally finished tasting the eighteen kinds of wine in the venue.
After Li Teuk tasted the last drink, he confidently took out his wallet and prepared to place a bet.
An acquaintance named Crewe came over immediately when he saw this.
"Mr. Leeteuk, can you tell me which wine you like?"
"No. 16!" Lite said confidently: "This wine is an outstanding one among all the wines I have come into contact with. I think it will definitely become the champion!"
As he said that, he took out all the cash from his wallet, which amounted to almost two thousand dollars, and quickly came to the rostrum and handed his name tag and money to Ren Yiping, who was in charge of registration.
"I'll press number 16."
"Wait a moment." Ren Yiping was slightly surprised at the amount of the bet, then he counted the money, registered it, wrote a note and handed it to him.
After Lee Teuk left with the note, Crewe also ran over and pressed the only 500 knife he had on him, also No. 16.
He is quite confident in Li Teuk's appreciation ability.
After a while, most of the guests had finished placing their bets, and the remaining ones, perhaps due to lack of confidence or other reasons, had no intention of stepping forward.
When Chu Heng saw this, he didn't wait any longer and hurriedly counted the votes.
soon.
The lights in the field dimmed again, and Chu Heng, who looked like a dog, walked up to the podium carrying a microphone connected to a long wire.
He tried the sound check first, and then said in fluent English: "Dear guests, please be quiet. The most exciting moment of this cocktail party has arrived."
The guests immediately stopped talking and turned their attention to him, nervously waiting for the final result.
"Now I am going to announce the ranking of the participating red wines. Please listen carefully and see who is the final winner." Chu Heng shook the list in his hand and said, "Let's start with the eighteenth place."
As he said that, he pretended to look at the list in his hand seriously as he already knew the result. Then his expression stiffened and he said with a wry smile: "Okay, let's start from the sixteenth place. Damn it, seventeen and ten."
Eight didn’t even get a single vote!”
Chu Heng shrugged, funny and witty: "I'm curious about how bad they taste, but they are not as good as Mr. Alter's footwash! At least some people still like to drink Mr. Alter's footwash!"
"Hahaha!"
The whole crowd burst into laughter.
Ault's foot-washing water is a popular joke in the embassy district of Forty-Nine City.
The origin is a pervert named Bulgan. This grandson is very obsessed with a beautiful colleague named Jennifer, and then he does not dare to confess his feelings, so he often secretly drinks the other person's foot washing water to comfort him.
Later, this matter was discovered by another foot-picking man named Oult, who secretly replaced the foot-washing water with his own and let Bulgan drink it for three days. If he didn't get athlete's foot later, he might have to drink it.
