The clear wine scattered on the ground is like a clear spring in the mountains, how can it be half turbid?
"liquor?"
Pedestrians nearby couldn't help but wonder, they had never seen such clear wine these days. But if it wasn't wine, where did this aroma of wine that spread for ten miles come from?
Looking for the aroma of wine, everyone around him gathered around and looked at the broken jar on the ground.
"Woooo..."
The little girl's cry drew everyone's attention back, and it turned out that there was a little girl lying on the ground next to her. She was wearing a yellow gauze lining, a pink and white gown over her shoulders, two pigtails hanging on her shoulders, and bangs on her forehead.
A bit messy.
What a pretty girl, her milky white skin is as red as rouge, even if she doesn't apply makeup, it is better than makeup. Two lines of clear tears hang on the side of her face leisurely and pitifully.
"Whose maid is she?"
"Little girl, don't cry."
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu
The little girl looked pitiful, but at a glance she knew that she had stumbled while delivering the wine, broke the wine jar, and violated her master's instructions.
"Little girl, I'll give you some money and go to the winery to buy another bottle of wine and go back to work."
Xiaoyue Chuchu rubbed the corners of her eyes pitifully and sniffed: "Thank you, kindhearted person, but... but how can other people's drinks compare with this? My young master spent a lot of money to buy it, and this time... this time
I really got into trouble."
"What kind of wine is this? Why haven't you seen it before?"
"The young master said this is Wuliangye. It is the best wine and is hard to find. Even the jade liquor in the palace cannot compare with it."
"Ouch!" Someone shouted, "Is this wine comparable to tribute wine?"
Everyone looked at the wine on the ground. Apart from being as clear as water, the wine had a very strong aroma. However, everyone knew that the more fragrant and clear the wine, the lighter the taste, and the taste would naturally be three points worse.
"Is it good or not? I'll know after I drink it."
A bearer walked out of the crowd, carrying a sack of heavy objects on his shoulders. His arms were shiny, and his muscular body seemed to have endless strength.
I don't know who this person is, but I saw him grabbing the broken porcelain tiles on the ground without hesitation. There was still half a bowl of wine in it. He put it to the tip of his nose and took a sniff. A stronger mellow aroma rushed straight to his forehead, and in an instant he felt like it.
Made him blush.
“What a great wine!”
He shouted so boldly and raised his head to drink it.
Xiaoyue hurriedly shouted: "I can't do it!"
The man paused: "How can I prevent it?"
"My young master said, this wine is very strong, don't drink it in a hurry, you will get drunk."
"Haha!" The man laughed loudly, "You idiot, I drink ten bottles at a time, but I can't do as well as the wind. It's just half a bottle, you want to get me drunk? Girl, don't underestimate the idiot!"
After that, he raised his head and drank, pouring half a cup of wine into his throat...
"Oh! What a fool!"
Xiaoyue let out a cry in her heart, knowing that this person was going crazy.
I still remember the first pot of wine that came out of the cellar two days ago. The little girl was curious for a moment and secretly drank a sip as small as her pinky finger. Who knew that she was so drunk that night that she talked crazy and nonsense.
"Master! Master! When will you ask me to be your maid?"
"Master! Can you touch Xiaoyue here? Has she grown up?"
"Master! Don't run away, just touch... just touch me!"
The scene was still vivid in my mind, and I was so ashamed when I thought about it. I was tied up in the room by my wife and beaten so hard that my buttocks still hurt to this day!
Xiaoyue knew that this wine was very strong. How could this pustule man be happy after drinking it?
Just then I was thinking about the man who was drinking. He had just entered his stomach and suddenly realized something was wrong. A pungent smell of alcohol rushed straight from his throat to his seven orifices. He suddenly started coughing, his eyes were red, tears were streaming down his face, and he was hunched over and beating his chest and feet.
, I felt like I was losing my temper.
The man was so startled that the people around him took two steps back. It took him a long time to stop coughing. When he raised his head, his face was red and his eyes were blurred, and his whole body felt like a bone.
One step crooked, every step twisted, he turned sideways and twisted step by step, and hit a tree trunk directly.
"Ha ha ha ha……"
Everyone in the audience burst into laughter, saying that they drank ten jars at a time, and the general became so drunk after just one sip.
"Laughing...why are you laughing? I...I, I, I...I'm not drunk...haha..."
The man leaned against the tree and waved his hands, letting out a wine burp. His breath was filled with the aroma of wine. Before anyone could react, he fell to the ground and was drunk and unconscious.
Seeing this situation, everyone who was laughing could not help but be stunned.
Isn’t this a bit exaggerated?
"Little girl, has your young master ever said what kind of wine this is? Where does it come from?"
"This is Wuliangye."
Cuicui's few words ignited the curiosity of the visitors.
"Wuliangye?"
"What kind of wine is coming? I've never heard of it!"
"It seems that a new wine merchant opened today, and the wine they sell seems to be called Wuliangye."
…
Wuliangye arrived quietly, and shops in ten counties in Yangzhou opened at the same time, but there was no fanfare. Only the red silk covering the plaque was removed, revealing the four characters "Wulin Essence".
On that day, this sign only attracted some curious eyes, and the first day of business started in a deserted atmosphere.
But at this critical moment, the owner of the shop was drinking and chatting with the charming Madam Liu among the pleasant scenery.
At the end of June, Liuzhuang is full of scenery again. The lakes and mountains are printed with the green of weeping willows, which makes the Moon Lake deep...
After the tea-picking season, there are no tea girls in the mountains, only the scorching sun and a few dragonflies on the water. Instead, there is a sea of jade lotus flowers by the lake, which are delicate, pink and white, and beautiful.
Xia Shang came today not just to enjoy the scenery. He left the winery to open, just to build up the relationship with Liuzhuang, hoping to quickly open up the business road from Yangzhou to Suzhou.
For more than a month, although life had been calm and his family was prosperous, Xia Shang still couldn't help but think about going to Shangguanchan.
Wuliangye was the thread that led him to where he wanted to go, so he came here to seek cooperation.
Seeing the clear wine in the cup, Mrs. Liu looked curious.
"What is the name of this wine? Why is it so clear? Isn't the aroma of this wine too pure?"
"This is Wuliangye, which is produced from the essence of five grains. Drinking it is as smooth as spring breeze, and its taste is as strong as summer. Even if there are thousands of jars of fine wine, it will not be as good as one cup of grains."
“Mr.
Xia Shang smiled: "Please taste it carefully."
Seeing Xia Shang's confidence, Mrs. Liu became more curious. She raised her glass and drank it all in one gulp.
"Cough cough cough..."
Mrs. Liu was just like the man. It was the first time she came into contact with such hot wine, and she choked and blushed.
"Ma'am, are you okay?"
Fortunately, the glass of wine was short. Mrs. Liu held her trembling chest and exhaled a few breaths. Her cheeks were like cinnabar, and the redness penetrated into the tender meat, so moist that it almost made bleeding.
Seeing Mrs. Liu like this, Xia Shang smiled even more: "Madam, how about Wuliangye?"
Mrs. Liu was silent for a long time. After experiencing the strong and hot taste, the only thing left in her heart was the fragrance of grains.
This kind of fragrance penetrates into the bone marrow, as if the essence of grains is hidden in the heart, and the sweetness lingers...
How to describe it?
Mrs. Liu held back four words: "Unparalleled in the world!" (To be continued)
