Chapter 806 Asma Is Not Short of Money
Yang Ming's shop, inside the tavern.
After Yang Ming and Asma introduced each other, they took out a bottle of wine.
When Yang Ming opened the sealed oil paper, a strong fragrance rose into the sky in an instant. Taking a deep breath, Yang Ming nodded with satisfaction.
Red-haired Shanks and Eagle-eyed Mihawk were drinking happily when they suddenly smelled a strange fragrance. They couldn't help but sniffed in surprise, "What kind of wine aroma is this? Oh my god, it smells so good!"
Not only him, but also Asuma in the store and some employees working could not help but twitch their noses, greedily inhaling the sudden aroma of wine.
The red-haired Shanks was the master of wine. When he smelled the aroma of wine, he looked straight in the direction of the aroma and saw Yang Ming coming over with a jug of wine. , suddenly the mouth was so greedy, the mouth was watering, and the eyes were straight!
"Boss Yang Ming, what kind of wine is this? Why does it smell so good?"
"This is blue and white wine!" Yang Ming said lightly.
Drinking wine has very high requirements on drinking utensils, and Yang Ming's shop is certainly more so. Yang Ming came to Asma's table and placed a painted pottery gilt duckbill wine pot and a gilt silver bowl with golden flowers. Asma couldn't help but admire: "Boss Yang Ming is indeed Boss Yang Ming. This wine set is so elegant." Breathtaking.”
It is worth mentioning that the aroma of this wine is very fragrant and full of penetration. The moment Yang Ming took out the wine, the rich aroma of wine began to float away. The air around Yang Ming's shop and even in the entire street was filled with the faint aroma of wine. The aroma of this wine is strong but not ordinary, especially fresh and has the fragrance of blue and white flowers. It makes people deeply intoxicated after smelling it, and it has a refreshing effect on the spirit.
The so-called fragrant fragrance is nothing more than that.
Pedestrians passing by twitched their nostrils and looked left and right curiously, wondering where this intoxicating aroma came from. The drinkers in Yang Ming's shop immediately got into trouble, because boss Yang Ming would not be willing to take it unless he hid the good wine.
Looking at the red-haired Shanks' expression that said "Why didn't you take it out earlier?" Yang Ming said lightly: "You didn't ask me for it just now."
Red-haired Shanks: "..."
What you said makes so much sense, I am speechless!
For a moment, he felt extremely torn, should he have another bottle of wine?
Damn it, don’t you even think about it, of course it’s another bottle of wine!
Red-haired Shanks put down the cup in his hand, licked his face and asked, "Boss Yang Ming, I also want a pot of blue and white wine."
In response, Yang Ming just said lightly: "Sorry, this pot of wine is not easy to make, so it is limited in supply and only one pot is sold a day."
puff!
Hearing the news, red-haired Shanks was so stunned that he couldn't hold back his breath!
For an alcoholic, being unable to drink the wine before him is even more uncomfortable than killing him!
So, red-haired Shanks changed his target, pointed at Asuma, licked his face and said:
"Brother, I'll give you one million, please give me this pot of blue and white wine."
Asma raised an eyebrow: "Sorry, I won't let you!"
"Did I hear you right? That's one million! You don't want it?" Red-haired Shanks had the urge to strangle Asuma to death at this moment.
Ordinary people say that blocking someone's way of making money is equivalent to killing one's parents. For an alcoholic, if Asma refuses to let him have a good drink, it can be said to be killing him!
"Is one million a lot?" In response, Asma looked indifferent and kept saying, "I'm really sorry, I'm actually not short of money."
puff!
You don’t play like this!
Red-haired Shanks almost fainted in the toilet from crying!
There was a reason why Asma asked Yang Ming to bring out wine with a lower alcohol content.
The reason why the alcohol content of Konoha Village's wine is not high is because there is no distillation technology yet. Brewing can only produce wine with an alcohol content of 10% to 18%. Yang Ming remembered reading in an ancient book in the world of Naruto that there were ancient people in the ninja world who wanted to use wine instead of water to make wine in the hope of getting a higher concentration, but it didn't work. Because alcohol is a product of yeast (distillery yeast) sugar metabolism, it has a certain inhibitory effect on yeast fermentation. When the alcohol content reaches about 10%, yeast stops multiplying and the fermentation process slows down. Even yeasts with strong alcohol tolerance can't tolerate more than 18% alcohol, so even if wine is used instead of water for secondary fermentation, you won't be able to get higher alcohol wine.
It is not enough to just have a high alcohol content, but also to "go hand in hand" in many aspects such as taste, aroma, concentration of liquor, etc. Only then can Yang Ming's shop become a hit in this era and compete with the Yuanyue Restaurant opposite.
Asma took a small sip and was delighted. The taste was good and it met her expectations. Furthermore, the wine has a slightly bitter taste, which greatly adds to the long aftertaste of the wine. It's because of the hop flower. The hop flower itself has a light bitter taste, so the brewed wine is refreshing and bitter.
For an alcoholic, the taste of wine should be varied, not the unchanging taste of cola drinks.
Asma smiled. The slightly bitter and refreshing taste must be one of the important characteristics of the wine brewed by boss Yang Ming. Some of the wines drank by the villagers in Konoha Village also have a bitter taste, but they are made by adding seasonings and soaking them during drinking. How can they be compared to boss Yang Ming’s pure natural tea, which can be savored for a long time like Kuding tea? Comparable to suffering?
Asma filled the cup and took a sip. The refreshing fragrance in her mouth penetrated straight into her heart. And due to the slight increase in alcohol content after the second drink, it seemed as if there was a ball of fire rushing into her esophagus after the aroma entered her throat. Even better, the fire has a cool bitterness, just like ice and snow can calm the burning sensation of moderate intensity.
Seeing Asuma drinking with gusto, red-haired Shanks was really greedy, but he was anxious to know what it tasted like, like a monkey scratching his itch, and said anxiously:
"Brother, how's it going? Is this wine okay?"
Asuma glanced at the red-haired Shanks and saw that he was also a wine drinker and had the same taste in wine, so he said eloquently:
"This wine is very good. It is light red in color and pure, and the wine is clear and bright. The first one is that the wine has a rich and just right aroma, which does not cover up the original fragrance of the blue and white flowers. It is just the finishing touch. The second one is that the wine is of excellent quality and is not easy to retain. It will inevitably go rancid over time. This is the wine that was freshly brewed today, that’s why it’s so unique, and that’s the third reason.”
"besides……"
Asuma originally wanted to praise him, but was stopped by red-haired Shanks.
"Please, stop talking!" Red-haired Shanks looked like he was about to cry. "If I had known, I would have asked for this bottle of wine first! It's a pity that there is no regret medicine to buy."
