"Okay, let's have cocktails today? You've never had one, right?" Han Peacock asked.
Liu Xu raised her eyebrows and said, "Have you ever drank?"
"I haven't drunk it either. I don't want you to try it!" Han Kongque said.
Liu Xu said: "Then let's make a drink with low-alcohol wine or red wine."
Han Peacock also raised his eyebrows and said, "It seems you have done your homework too!"
"Of course, otherwise it would be so embarrassing not to know anything!" Liu Xu used his spear to attack his shield.
Han Peacock looked at Liu Xu's childlike appearance and felt that she was really interesting. Such a beautiful girl was also so straightforward. Such beauties were really rare.
"I haven't done enough in my homework, why don't you give me a detailed introduction?" Han Kongque asked with a smile.
"Just watch. We've already talked about everything. What did he do?" Liu Xu said, watching the bartender's movements.
Han Peacock smiled and didn't say anything else. There were times when Liu Catkin was confused.
She didn't know that an ordinary cocktail costs about 30-50 yuan a cup.
If it is a special cocktail, such as one with many varieties, or with a large amount of alcohol and novel style, it may be around 60-100, which is much more expensive than the Baileys they drank before.
"Look at the bottle of wine over there. It's Chivas Regal. It's very expensive. A bottle costs thousands of dollars. And last time we came here, the rich uncle treated him to Johnnie Walker, which is also a blue label.
I want more than a thousand bottles." Liu Xu pointed at the wine cabinet behind the bar and introduced to Han Peacock.
It seems that Liuxu only inquired about the prices of these famous wines, but did not know the prices of the cocktails made.
Of course Han Kongque also knows the price of the wine here. As long as he sees or listens to these things once, he can memorize them repeatedly, so now he has a good understanding of the alcohol in this bar.
At this time, the bartender got Liu Xu's instructions and started to mix drinks. He used wine as the base wine, and added other auxiliary materials such as juice, coffee, grenadine syrup, and stirred or shook to make a cocktail.
"It's just a summer style, I hope you two like it." The bartender elegantly brought two glasses of wine to the two of them at the same time.
Han Peacock looked at the red and green wine and knew that it was called summer style because of this color.
"Cocktails can beautify the skin. Chilled to quench thirst, try it." Although Han Kongque has not been in contact with catkins for a long time, he also knows that she seems to like sweet things, like the Bailey catkins last time. If it weren't for the price
Question. She will definitely order Baileys to drink.
Now this cup has a summer style. The alcohol content is not high and it has a sweet taste. I think it will suit Liu Xing's taste.
Liuxu took a sip. Her eyes immediately narrowed. Such movements and expressions made Liuxu more adorable. Of course, Han Peacock beside her could see it most clearly.
"Don't just watch me drink it, you also have a taste, it's very good." Liu Xu said.
Han Peacock lowered his head and took a sip. It was good. It felt sweet and cool, and the taste of the wine was not too strong. It was very suitable for people who don’t drink alcohol often.
"It's very good. This foreign wine is very suitable for drinking like this. Our domestic spirits are impossible to drink if there are no dishes to accompany the wine." Han Kongque said with a smile.
"What I'm talking about is, it seems that you envy foreigners? The eating habits of foreigners are hard to compliment. If you don't see foreigners, all of them are potbellied in middle age? That's because they eat too much sweet food.
Fast food, cheese, sweet wine, eating too much of these things will make you fat," Liu Xu said.
"Hey, there is no research on this. It seems that doctors are good and know what to eat and what not to eat. Then Dr. Liu will tell you why yellow lip fish is so expensive and what are the benefits of eating that thing." Han Peacock asked.
.
Liu Xu glanced at Han Peacock and said, "Isn't this what you men are after? If you didn't hype it, how could it be worth so much?"
"Are men and women divided? I know that the swim bladder of this yellow-lipped fish is specially designed to treat postpartum hemorrhage." Han Peacock said.
"Yes, the swim bladder of the yellow-lipped fish can be used as medicine. It has miraculous effects on postpartum hemorrhage. However, the swim bladder of the yellow-lipped fish also has the medicinal effect of strengthening the body, nourishing the liver and kidneys, replenishing the essence, and strengthening the body. It can treat the liver and kidneys.
Yin deficiency, dizziness, soreness and weakness in waist and knees, spermatorrhea, and thirst.
In addition to these main functions, modern medicine has also found that yellow-lipped fish bladder can be used to treat tuberculosis, rheumatic heart disease, aplastic anemia, vasculitis, neurasthenia, women's menstrual deficiency, etc., and is also useful in the prevention and treatment of allergic hemorrhagic purpura
, kidney deficiency, low back pain, and esophageal cancer also have certain curative effects.
Among the diseases treated, which one do you think is most commonly used? You wouldn’t think that women eat more yellow-lipped fish bladders, right? Could it be that men eating yellow-lipped fish bladders can also treat postpartum hemorrhage?
Therefore, things that are sought after by men are good things. It is for this reason that the price of yellow-lipped fish maw has been rising steadily, reaching the amazing price now."
Han Peacock broke into sweat after hearing this. Who knew that this thing could actually nourish the kidneys? If you knew it had this function, Han Peacock stopped asking Liu Catkin.
Now the way Liu Xu looks at Han Peacock is a bit wrong, which makes Han Peacock a little embarrassed.
"I only heard that the yellow-lipped fish bladder can treat postpartum hemorrhage, and it was not used by our family, but by one of my brothers' mothers. She suffered from postpartum hemorrhage, which caused her body to be weak." Han Peacock explained weakly.
"The special function of yellow-lipped fish maw is to nourish liver and kidney function. Its medicinal effect is comparable to that of ginseng. It can effectively treat postpartum hemorrhage, but its ability to stop bleeding is very strong. Since the postpartum body is weak, using yellow-lipped fish maw to supplement it is too wasteful.
LiuXu shook her head and said.
"It's not a waste if it can cure a disease." Han Kongque said.
"Yellow-lipped fish fat is a valuable traditional Chinese medicine supplement. Currently, 500 grams of dry fat, also known as white fish maw, is sold for more than 120,000 yuan on the market," Liu Xu said.
"Twenty thousand? So cheap?" Han Peacock said in surprise. In the past few days, he had heard every day how expensive the isinglass made from the swim bladder of the yellow-lipped fish was. Why was it worthless when it came to Liuxu's mouth?
"Two hundred thousand dollars is still cheap?" Liu Xu was also surprised. What kind of head does this Korean peacock have? How come his thoughts are so different from those of normal people!
"No. I heard that yellow-lipped fish is very expensive!" Han Peacock said.
"Everything is expensive and cheap, and the yellow-lipped fish is no exception. Although the yellow-lipped fish looks like a yellow croaker, its swim bladder has a special shape. It is cylindrical, with a wide and flat front end, and a slender handful extending from each side, about
The lateral tube, which is as long as the swim bladder, is commonly known as the beard, and goes deep into the muscle layer of the body wall backwards.
The upper part of its swim bladder is covered with thick collagen. It is golden yellow, bright and shiny and has drum-like ripples.
The larger the fish, the longer it takes to grow, the larger the swim bladder will be when dried, and the higher the price.
If it is a golden-yellow fish maw, it cannot be compared with ordinary fish maw. The price of yellow-lipped fish maw varies even more depending on the quality.
So if you want to buy something like this, you need to seek professional help, otherwise you will be easily deceived," Liu Xu explained.
"So complicated? Fortunately, I don't have to buy it. I caught one in the shallow water this time when I went to sea. I am planning to deal with it. Once it is processed, I will give it to my big brother." Han Kongque said.
"When I was in college, I majored in Chinese medicine. Although I got a certificate of completion, I was not a professional after all. If you really want to deal with yellow-lipped fish bladders, let me introduce you to an old Chinese medicine doctor!" Liu Xu said.
Han Kongque said happily: "Okay, I'd really like to learn something about traditional Chinese medicine from him."
LiuXu asked in surprise: "Why do you want to learn this?"
"I got an ancient prescription. The introduction on it is somewhat useful, but the method of preparing the medicinal materials is very troublesome, so I want to learn it and try to prepare a few Chinese medicines to see if the properties of the medicine are really as described in the formula.
Okay." Han Peacock said truthfully.
Liu Xu glanced at him and said, "Don't take medicines casually. Western medicine still has to undergo clinical trials for several years. How dare you let people take the Chinese medicine you just prepared?"
"Of course, we need to test the potency of the medicine first to make sure it won't cause any harm to the human body before giving it to others," Han Kongque said.
Liu Xu said: "Just be careful. It's very difficult to deal with medical disputes now."
"Well? Have you finished your drink? Want another drink?" Han Peacock said, looking at Liu Xing's empty wine glass.
"Forget it, the cost here is too high, just have a drink and it will be fine." Liu Xu refused.
Han Kongque said: "As promised, I'll treat you, so don't worry about my wallet."
"You know you have to suffer for losing face. The last time I invited you, I ate steamed buns, pickles and sticks in the hospital cafeteria for more than a week." Liu Xu said with a smile.
"As for what? Your home is not far from the hospital, why don't you go home to eat?" Han Kongque said while motioning to the bartender not far away to make them two more drinks.
"One is that it is inconvenient to go home to eat, and patients will look for a doctor at any time. The other is that it is too annoying to go home, you know." Liu Xu said.
"Don't you have me as a shield now? Am I being suspected for not being competent enough?" Han Kongque said.
Liuxu said helplessly: "What do you think! If you don't see her once a week, my sister suspects it's normal."
Liuxu was very helpless. She couldn't say that her sisters looked down on him, right?
Liuxu's parents are both teachers. They were busy teaching classes outside during the summer vacation, so they didn't pay attention to Liuxu. Now that all the students have started school, Liuxu has become the focus of their monitoring again.
Moreover, the views of her three sisters are definitely recognized by her parents.
They all wanted Liuxu to find a young man with good conditions, which is what modern people call a young man with three things: a house, a car and a deposit.
It seems that these conditions are not enough for Han Peacock. Although he is not too familiar with Han Peacock, Liuxu is so smart! He knows everything he needs to know.
The house Han Kongque rented was in a basement. Her third sister found out about this.
The company Han Kongque works for is a very small consulting company, and the company's name is Bagua. It's hard to say whether such a company will be able to open tomorrow. Liu Xu's eldest brother-in-law helped to find out.
As for whether Han Kongque has any savings, it is easier to understand. He rents a house and works in a small company. How can he have savings without a good job?
This is all the information that the family got through some relationships after the two people went on a blind date. However, although Liu Xu didn't say anything, she always felt that Han Peacock was not simple.
Although men always pretend to be rich in front of women, Han Peacock gave Liu Xu a different feeling. He really didn't seem to care about money. Just like the sign in this bar, Han Peacock actually dared to peek at it.
"This is a blue moon. I hope you two like it." At this time, the bartender interrupted Liuxu's thoughts.
"It's so beautiful, how did you make this?" Liuxu looked at the beautiful color in the wine glass, which was rendered like a purple gemstone, and immediately exclaimed.
"Made with dry gin, vanilla violet liqueur, and lemon juice. I hope you like it. The wine language of this wine is very romantic: a romantic blue moon shining in the night sky. I hope you have a wonderful night."
The bartender said.
Han Peacock looked at this cocktail. It was bright lavender in color and had a great visual impact.
Vanilla violet liqueur is refined by extracting the purple color and aroma of sweet violet petals with liquor and adding sweetness.
The aroma and color of the "Blue Moon" cocktail create a breathtaking and coquettish beauty. When you enter the mouth, the sweet violet floral aroma and lemon sour taste make your mouth fragrant.
Blue Moon means "to be viewed from a distance but not to be played with", and it also brings out the enchanting beauty of women. It is best to drink at night when you are looking at the mysterious moon in the distance and thinking about it.
Looking at Liuxu's bright and radiant cheeks, Han Peacock felt that everything he had done was worth it.
He really did his homework. He searched the Internet for a long time to find this Blue Moon cocktail. This drink is not only delicious, but also very beautiful.
He believed that Liuxu liked her, and sure enough, Liuxu's performance satisfied Han Peacock.
Next, the two people slowly tasted wine and talked about their work and life from time to time. Maybe it was because neither of them wanted anything from the other person, so the two of them felt relaxed every time they were together, which also made their relationship always better.
It's very harmonious.
There is no pretentiousness or defensiveness. This allows two people to open up and talk about things that they would normally not see but cannot tell others.
After venting in this way, the two of them felt more relaxed and the atmosphere of getting along was better.
"Look, those kids over there are so old that they come to a place like this." After getting to know each other, Liu Xu and Han Peacock began to whisper and bite each other's ears, and the movements they made were not awkward at all, they were very natural.
Han Peacock tilted his head slightly and turned his face to Liuxu. He realized that he was looking in the direction Liuxu was pointing.
Perhaps they had just finished strenuous exercise, and several teenagers came over from a distance covered in sweat.
"Come to dance!" Han Peacock guessed that they had just come up from the underground dance hall, otherwise they wouldn't be so sweaty.
Liu Xu said: "Their families are not worried either."
"It's not as chaotic as you think. You haven't been down there once, have you? How about we go down and play for a while?" Han Peacock and Liu Xu came twice, but never entered the underground dance hall once. Han Peacock was really curious, why?
So many men and women want to go to bars and dance clubs.
"No, it's too noisy. Let's just talk here!" Liu Xu shook her head and refused. Although she has never been there, it doesn't mean she doesn't know what's going on in the ballroom.
As soon as she rejected Han Kongque's invitation, Liu Xu immediately realized her wisdom.
The few teenagers who walked into the bar just now seemed very tired. After sitting down, they ordered a lot of drinks. Everyone drank a lot, especially the men, who almost drank beer as water.
After drinking, the young man's movements became a bit irregular. A young man started to move his hands up and down towards a girl next to him.
Finally, the girl next to me couldn't help it anymore: "What are you doing?"
The girl's loud shout caused the people around her who were talking in low voices to focus their attention there.
Seeing so many people staring at him, while one of his hands was still on the important part of the girl, the boy who felt embarrassed suddenly became angry: "Are you sick? What is your name?"
"What are you doing? Take your hand off." A girl on the other side slapped the boy's hand off.
A boy next to the boy was unwilling: "If you can't afford it, don't come out to play. Why are you pretending to be aloof? If you are pretending to be aloof, don't come out with us."
"If you don't want to play, don't play. You know how virtuous you are, I won't even come to lift you up for you." Although the girl has long, silky hair, she has a very tough personality.
"Okay! Since you don't play with us, then we are sorry. Waiter, pay here." A boy stood up, took out a few bills and put them in the hands of a waiter who was standing next to him.
"Sir, this money is not enough." There was an argument, and the waiter came over immediately because he was afraid that others would take advantage of the situation and not pay the bill.
The boy sneered: "What we consume is beer, and what they drink is drinks. Since they don't want to play with us, we don't have to waste money."
After saying that, the three boys left the three girls and ran away.
Seeing this situation, Liuxu scolded him directly: "It's really rubbish."
And Han Peacock was also dumbfounded. Is this okay?
The three girls who were still there were all wearing cool clothes. They didn't look like they had brought money with them, because they didn't have bags, and all three of them just held a mobile phone in their hands.
Sure enough, Han Peacock's guess was correct, and he was dumbfounded by the three girls who were still here. They originally came out to play with the boys, and they didn't have to spend money at all. They didn't expect that they were left here to hang out.
"Miss, there are six bottles of drinks, totaling three hundred yuan." The waiter handed the bill directly to one of the girls.
The girl screamed in fright, and the bill fell directly to the ground. Another girl picked up the bill: "What drink is so expensive? Do you want to rip people off?"
Liu Xu also looked at the waiter and wanted to go up and kick him. She whispered: "That waiter is too disgusting. What kind of drink is that? Isn't it all mineral water? What kind of mineral water costs fifty yuan a day?"
bottle."
Han Kongque's eyesight was very good, and he saw the two small words on the bottle: Evian.
Ever since Han Kongque came up with an active water, he has become interested in some high-priced natural waters, and this Evian is one of them.
Although this kind of water is not the most expensive, the price is definitely not cheap. (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!
