Logically speaking, a marinated dish shouldn’t be that crunchy and should have a more tender and tough texture. However, this golden marinade did not have such a problem. It was very refreshing and even had a slight popping feeling to it. It was extremely delicious.

It went especially well with the liquor. It felt like he could drink a whole bottle of liquor after eating a plate. Wu Hai had already eaten half a plate and still couldn’t help taking up the cup and drinking a mouthful of the plum blossom liquor. The liquor slid down his throat smoothly and slowly.

As the fragrance spread out, it felt as if it was coming out of his body. His entire body was bathed in the fragrance of flowers. It was not an extremely strong smell, but it carried the noble and elegant scent of plum blossoms. It was as if various flowers in different shapes and sizes had appeared in front of him. He could smell the fragrance of plum blossoms with a light sniff.

After the light fragrance, there was a hint of ripeness. It seemed to be the smell of fruit, and the fragrance of plum lingered on the tip of the tongue.

Even Wu Hai couldn’t stand it anymore. He drank another mouthful of it and then immersed himself in the other snacks.

“The ancient records are true. The ancients were not as exaggerated as they were in literature. There is indeed such a special wine. I wonder how boss Yuan came up with it.” Old Huang was excited.

If he wasn’t so old and clumsy, he would directly go to Yuan Zhou and chat with him about 10 RMB. There were so many people in the hall, and 10 RMB was the limit.

He was old and couldn’t win over the young ones. He could only secretly think that he wouldn’t go back to Beijing this time. Anyway, Chengdu was also very good. He would stay here for a while first. Well, it was another master who planned to stay in Chengdu.

“The monkey wine is definitely better.” Elder Vulture savored the taste of the plum blossom wine.

In his heart, he couldn’t help but think of the wonderful taste of the monkey wine recorded in the history books. The last time, he didn’t have time to attend the monkey wine tasting conference. He also participated in activities abroad and received little news.

...

When he received the news, it had already been a while. To be honest, there were too many truths and lies. He was busy and didn’t plan to make a special trip. In addition, his old friends had been staying in Rong city and hadn’t returned. Of course, they didn’t invite him to taste it. Thus, this was old Huang’s first time coming to Rong city.

After drinking the plum blossom wine, old Huang finally realized that the real reason his old friends hadn’t returned to Jing was because the wine here was good, not some bullsh * t like they were researching a new wine together.

The point was that he was so innocent that he believed it. Thinking of this, old Huang couldn’t help but glare at his old friends at the table next to him. They had made a bad friend by mistake. They didn’t even invite him for such a good thing. It was a waste of their decades of friendship.

Old Wang and the others noticed old Huang’s murderous gaze and turned around to continue drinking. There was no choice. There were only so many drinking spots, and they couldn’t drink all the time. If they called old Huang along, wouldn’t it be even more difficult to drink?

In front of Yuan Zhou’s wine, no matter how many friendships they had, they were all useless. And there were so many delicious dishes that went with the wine. They were determined not to add more people, otherwise, there wouldn’t be enough to share. But now that old Huang had discovered it, there would probably be more people to fight for it in the future.

At the thought of this, elder Wang and the others quickly held the wine glasses and wine jugs in their hands tightly and quickly filled their glasses and drank. Their speed was very skillful and fast. They were definitely repeat offenders.

It was also Wang Laosi’s good luck that a pot of wine happened to be near them, so the four of them occupied a pot of wine, which was quite a great advantage.

When elder Huang saw elder Wang and the others turn around, he thought that they were too embarrassed to face him, so he decided to forgive them generously. He had no idea what his old friends were thinking. Should he cut ties with them and understand?

As President Wan and President Zhu had more people, they grabbed two bottles of liquor. Besides pouring a glass for old Huang and his assistant, the others exchanged glances with each other. As they were comrades-in-arms who had fought for the quota together, they immediately understood each other’s thoughts. Therefore, they kept drinking one glass after another in a graceful and fast way.

Master Wan and the others had already learned how to elegantly and quickly drink the wine that they liked to be safe.

By the time old Huang and old Huang came back to their senses, the plum blossom wine was already in their stomachs. This made them feel depressed. Fortunately, the next type of wine was served at that time. Otherwise, old Huang would have performed the lion’s roar for everyone to see.

These were all things to be discussed later. Now, Yuan Zhou had encountered a little trouble.

Originally, after Yuan Zhou finished his speech, he was supposed to come down and join the table of master Wan brew and chat with the Masters to check and fill in the gaps. After all, his wine-making skills had only reached the intermediate level. He thought that he had just entered the beginner level and needed to learn with an open mind.

Unexpectedly, Yuan Zhou was stopped before he could go there. It was an old man with white hair and wrinkled skin. He was really old, but his face was ruddy. At first glance, Yuan Zhou could tell that he was in a good mental state and should be in good health as well, because he stopped him very quickly just now.

Yuan Zhou was a person who respected the old and loved the young. Therefore, when he looked at the old man in front of him, he said very courteously,””President Yan, is there something wrong?”

He recognized the old man in front of him. They had met before. He was the current Honorary President of the China winemaking Association and also the inheritor of Lu wine. The “Yan-style sesame wine” was well-known throughout the country. His hand-to-hand Brewing technique was extremely exquisite. Even at the age of 80, he would still insist on brewing it. However, most of the time, he brewed it at home. The brewery had long since retired from the frontlines. After all, their physical strength was indeed not comparable to young people.

Yuan Zhou didn’t know why he came to see him. He was a little curious. Anyway, it was okay to have an exchange with President Yan first.

“Nice to meet you, chief Yuan. I just wanted to ask if you’d be interested in joining our Association. You don’t have to do too much, and the honorary Vice President only needs to hold a meeting once a year. If you have time, you can also give a lecture or something. Of course, as the Vice President, you’ll be given the highest access to all kinds of ancient wine-making books and recipes in the Association. What do you think?” President Yan’s smile was like that of Maitreya Buddha.

At first glance, he looked very friendly, even more so than the aunties from the housing Committee. Of course, this was president Yan’s own opinion.

In Yuan Zhou’s opinion, President Yan’s smile was especially like the Big Bad Wolf who had kidnapped Little Red Riding Hood. No matter how he looked at it, he didn’t seem to have any good intentions. He felt that his fine hair was about to stand up in protest.

“Ahem,” Yuan Zhou coughed embarrassedly and got rid of the image-like thoughts in his mind. He then said seriously,””My wine-making skills aren’t very good yet, so I’m not qualified to be the Vice President. President Yan, why don’t we talk about this after my skills have improved?”

What Yuan Zhou was thinking was that after he became an Advanced Master winemaker, he would basically be able to match the position of the honorary Vice President.

He had always believed that if he was in a position to scheme for government affairs, he would be like those people who were in a dead position and didn’t eat their own food if he couldn’t answer some of the questions asked by others. This was something that Yuan Zhou would never allow to happen and also the pride of his future master chef.

He was very sincere and serious when he said this. However, Secretary Xu, who had come with President Yan, felt like there were hundreds of thousands of alpacas running in his heart.
