Chapter 2184 The 4 Big Drinking Kings

"Hahaha, Chef Yuan is too polite. Seniority is very important, but it is also important to be a master." Zhu Dakang said: "I have been making wine for more than thirty years. I was hired by Jiannanchun in the past few years. I listened to Zhou Hui Tell me, Chef Yuan still insists on keeping his own shop?"

"My personal abilities are limited, and the store cannot be expanded." Yuan Zhou replied.

"There are really not many young people who can do this if they have their own persistence and implement their own persistence." Zhu Dakang sighed when he said this, and he said: "When I was young, I just didn't insist on myself, so I was very Respect people who practice what they insist on.”

The four chief winemakers of Jiannanchun, Wuliangye, Xifeng Wine and Luzhou Laojiao are known as the four wine kings of China.

The reason why there is no Moutai is because other factories do not have the position of chief brewer. They have multiple supervisions. Fenjiu, Daqu, and Gujing Gong are all brewing teams.

So Zhu Dakang is quite famous, and Yuan Zhou also knows that the three chief brewers of Wuliangye, Jiannanchun, and Xifeng Liquor were all trained by the same master. Zhu Dakang came out without learning everything, so he couldn't insist on himself. , should be referring to this matter.

"It's better than some old chefs who can't even shake a pot." Zhu Dakang's words were obviously hurting Zhou Shijie.

"Hey, Mr. Zhu, I haven't seen you for half a month. Do you think I can't even lift a knife?" Zhou Shijie's eyes were dangerous.

"President Zhou can't be so irritable, he can take it, he can take it." Zhu Dakang waved his hands repeatedly.

Of course, everyone could clearly see the perfunctory expression on his face, which made Zhou Shijie jump for a beat.

Speaking of which, these two are also very familiar with each other, so there is always a certain familiarity between you and me, and it is okay to make some harmless jokes.

The time passed quietly as the two old men came and went, and soon there were many more people in the venue. Three of the four major wine kings came, and the remaining one was abroad and couldn't make it back.

In addition to the chefs who had nothing to do to join in the fun before, it is not an exaggeration to say that there was a crowd.

"If I had known, I would have had to drive those people away no matter what, my wine." Zhou Shijie felt heartbroken as he saw more and more people.

Before he could do anything else, Yuanzhou told him to take the remaining monkey wine back to him. Zhou Shijie was looking forward to it at first.

But now I see that there are no less than 30 or 40 people in the venue, and I feel uncomfortable no matter what.

Strictly speaking, he only hired the famous chief brewer from the beginning.

As well as a few inheritors of ancient wine, there are only a dozen in total, but those who can't help but be quick to hear the news and are better informed have spent a lot of effort to get a spot, just to see the legendary wine. Famous wines.

There were more people coming and going. Fortunately, there were not many chefs left. Otherwise, Zhou Shijie would have had to pass by so many judges just now.

If Zhou Shijie is given another chance, he will definitely control the number of people to less than twenty. This is the inner reflection of Zhou Shijie now.

Of course, he himself has no chance to be sad now. Three o'clock is here. This is an important moment, not a time for thoughts to be anchored.

Zhou Shijie spotted the right moment and stopped at the rostrum over there, saying "cough cough cough" and coughing a few times. The chaotic noise in the scene became quiet.

"Today is the Monkey Wine Tasting Conference held by Chef Yuan of Yuanzhou. I know everyone is in a hurry, so I won't say much and just get started." Zhou Shijie has never been used to speaking in official language, so he will be as concise as possible. .

"Pah, pah, pah, pah"

The people below didn't think it was simple. They thought that they would see the true face of Houerjiu soon, and they immediately became excited.

The legendary wine is now about to appear in real life. Most people wouldn't believe it except for Zhou Shijie's reputation and Yuan Zhou's magic.

How can legendary things be so good? Is this a joke?

Just when everyone was waiting eagerly, Zhong Lili appeared with a group of girls, each holding a tray with a jasper wine flask on it. The wine flask was very beautiful. Looking from a distance, it looked like a piece of jade. It's like jade, warm and transparent.

"The aroma of this wine is indeed different from others." Zhu Dakang's nose is really good. Although it only leaked a hint of the aroma of wine when packaging, he smelled it immediately.

As an old wine tank, he knew immediately that he had never encountered this kind of wine.

"It's indeed good." An old man with a smile on his face next to Zhu Dakang nodded in agreement.

This is Wan Zongniang from Wuliangye General Factory. Strictly speaking, he and Zhu Dakang are brothers, so they are on the same side.

"Look, I just said that you are right to come this time. Junior Brother Wan, you were not willing at first. Let's see if you lose money. Hahaha, Lao Diao really lost money this time. You have to say it properly in front of him when you go back. Said." Zhu Dakang looked proud.

When Zhou Shijie first invited him, most people said they wanted to come. Some gave face to Yuan Zhou and some gave face to Zhou Shijie. However, there were also a few who did not agree to come. They always felt unreliable. They felt that Yuan Zhou was not allowed to come. Even if the state develops a luminous dish, it will be more convincing than developing monkey wine.

Lao Diao is the most stubborn one among them. He really didn't come.

"It's not a loss, but isn't Chef Yuan a top chef? Why don't you even make monkey wine now? Why don't you develop in the wine industry? What a loss it is for us." Mr. Wan Nian Yi changed his smiling look just now and looked rather sad.

Although Zhu Dakang was also murmuring in his heart, he whispered: "Junior brother, you can ask Chef Yuan later to see if you can drag him to our cocktail party."

"Okay." Mr. Wan nodded.

"By the way, don't let President Zhou see you when we are talking." Zhu Dakang warned.

"Huh? Why?" After Mr. Wan said this, he understood that this matter was poaching and should indeed be kept low-key.

While Mr. Wan was talking to Zhu Dakang, the ladies had already started pouring wine.

Zhu Dakang stood first on the left, so as soon as the jasper pot was poured, a rich aroma of wine and fruit came out. The rich aroma made people feel relaxed and happy.

"Be careful, don't spill it." Zhu Dakang stared closely at the hand of the lady pouring the wine, fearing that her hands would shake and spill, thus spoiling such a delicious wine.

The professional quality of the young lady is very good. Even though Zhu Dakang was so urgently watching people, his hands were very steady. He slowly poured the emerald-colored wine into the green cup. For a moment, it was hard to tell which wine was greener. , or the cup is greener.

As the wine came out little by little, the aroma began to permeate the entire venue. Many people began to lick their lips, and the aroma of wine overflowed.

When the glasses were eight-tenths full, the ladies all stopped. Everyone, including the chefs who stayed behind, such as Song Ming and Ding Yuanshan, couldn't wait to pick up the glasses.

Although the speed is very fast, the movement is very gentle. He holds the green cup in his hand and brings it close to the tip of his nose. The smell of the wine mixed with various fruity aromas is instantly strong to the extreme. It is as if he is in an orchard, surrounded by the sweet fruity aroma. Surrounded by it, the whole person seems very comfortable.

Zhou Shijie also brought a glass, but Yuan Zhou didn't bring any wine. He drank another three-ounce pot of monkey wine after the tavern's business hours last night, so he won't drink any more today.
