Chapter 2185: The four great wine Kings

Translator: 549690339

“Hahaha, head chef Yuan, you are too polite. Seniority is important, but it is also important for the accomplished to be the teacher.” Zhu Dakang said,”I’ve been brewing wine for more than 30 years. I was only hired by Jian nanchun a few years ago. I heard from Chairman Zhou that head chef Yuan is still insisting on protecting his restaurant. Is that true?”

“My personal ability is limited. I can’t expand the shop.” Yuan Zhou answered.

“There aren’t many young people who can stick to their own principles and carry out their own principles.” Zhu Dakang sighed and said,”When I was young, I didn’t stick to my own principles, so I respect those who stick to their principles.”

The four chief Breezers of the main factories, Jiannan Chun, Wuliangye, Xifeng liquor, and Luzhou Laojiao, were known as the four wine Kings of China.

The reason why there was no Maotai was that he did not have a chief brew position in his factory. He had more supervisors, including Fenjiu, daqu, and gujinggong, who were all in the form of a wine brewing team.

Therefore, Zhu Dakang was quite famous. Yuan Zhou also knew that the three chief brewmasters of Wuliangye, Jiannan Chun, and Xifeng liquor were all taught by the same master. Zhu Dakang could be considered as having not learned everything. Therefore, when he said that he could not maintain his sense of self, he should be referring to this matter.

“It’s better than some old chefs who can’t even shake the pot. ” Zhu Dakang was obviously mocking Zhou Shijie.

“Hey, chief Zhu, I haven’t seen you for half a month. Do you think I can’t even hold a saber?” Zhou Shijie’s gaze was dangerous.

“Chairman Zhou, you can’t be so irascible. I can move it, I can move it.” Zhu Dakang waved his hands.

Of course, the perfunctory expression on his face was clearly seen by everyone. Zhou Shijie was hopping mad.

Speaking of which, these two were also very familiar with each other, so there was always a bit of familiarity between them. It was not a problem to make some harmless jokes.

Time passed quietly as the two old men exchanged blows. Soon, the venue was filled with many people. Three of the four wine Kings were here, and the last one was overseas and couldn’t make it back in time.

In addition to the chefs who had come to join in the fun, it was not an exaggeration to say that they were all gathered together.

......

“If I had known earlier, I would have chased those people away no matter what. My wine.” Seeing more and more people gathering around, Zhou Shijie felt so distressed that he kept twitching.

Zhou Shijie had no choice. Previously, Yuan Zhou had told him to bring back the rest of the monkey wine. At first, Zhou Shijie had been looking forward to it.

But now, there were no less than thirty to forty people in the venue, so it didn’t feel good.

Strictly speaking, he had only invited a famous chief winemaker and a few ancient wine inheritors from the beginning. In total, there were only a dozen of them. However, they had the characteristic of being able to act as soon as they heard the news. Those who were well-informed had all spent a lot of effort to get a slot, just to see the legendary famous wine.

After a while, more and more people came. Fortunately, not many chefs stayed behind. Otherwise, with so many judges, Zhou Shijie would have probably fainted.

If Zhou Shijie was given another chance, he would definitely keep the number of people within 20. This was what Zhou Shijie was thinking now.

Of course, he didn’t have the chance to be sad now. It was threeo’ clock. This was an important moment, not the time for his thoughts to break down.

Zhou Shijie looked at the time and stood on the rostrum.”Cough, cough, cough.” He coughed a few times and the slightly chaotic scene became quiet.

“Today is the monkey wine tasting conference organized by head chef Yuan Zhou. I know that everyone is very anxious, so I won’t say much. Let’s start directly.” Zhou Shijie had never been used to speaking in the official language. He would try to be as concise as possible.

“Pa pa pa pa”

The people below didn’t feel that it was simple. Thinking that they would soon be able to see the true face of the monkey wine, they immediately became excited.

The legendary wine was really about to appear now. If it wasn’t for Zhou Shijie’s reputation and Yuan Zhou’s miracles, most people wouldn’t have believed it.

How could legendary things be so easy to obtain? was this a joke?

Just when everyone was waiting with their heads held high, Zhong Lili appeared with a group of girls. Each of them was holding a tray with a green jade wine pot on it. The wine pot was very beautiful. From a distance, it looked like a piece of green jade, warm and transparent.

“The fragrance of this wine is indeed different from the others.” Zhu Dakang’s nose was really sharp. Although only a trace of the wine fragrance leaked out when it was served, he immediately smelled it.

As an old jug of wine, he knew that he had never seen this kind of wine before.

“It’s indeed not bad. ” An old man beside Zhu Dakang nodded in agreement with a smile.

This was the Wuliangye main factory’s wanzong brew. Strictly speaking, he was Zhu Dakang’s senior and junior Brother, so they stood together.

“See, I told you that coming here this time would be the right choice. Junior Brother Wan, you were unwilling at first, let’s see if you’ve lost. Hahaha, old Diao has really lost this time. I’ll have to talk to him when I get back.” Zhu Dakang had a smug look on his face.

When Zhou Shijie first invited them, most of them agreed to come. Some agreed to Yuan Zhou, some agreed to Zhou Shijie. However, there were also a few who didn’t agree to come. They felt that it was unreliable. They felt that Yuan Zhou’s research of a dish that could emit light was more convincing than his research of the monkey wine.

Old Diao was one of the most stubborn ones. He really didn’t come.

“It’s not a loss, but didn’t head chef Yuan say that he’s a Top Chef? how did he manage to make monkey wine? why didn’t he develop in the wine industry? that’s a huge loss for us.” Master Wan’s smiling face was replaced by a bitter expression.

Zhu Dakang muttered in his heart,””Junior Brother, you can ask head chef Yuan later and see if you can invite him to our reception.”

“Alright,” he said. Master Wan nodded.

“By the way, don’t let Chairman Zhou see you when you talk.” Zhu Dakang warned.

“Eh? Why?” After President Wan finished speaking, he understood that this matter was considered poaching and should indeed be low-key.

While master Wan and Zhu Dakang were talking, the young ladies had already started to pour the wine.

Zhu Dakang stood in the first position on the left, so as soon as the green jade pot was poured out, the rich wine fragrance along with the fruit fragrance gushed out. The strong fragrance 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, afraid that her hand would shake and Spill the Wine, ruining such a nice-smelling wine.

The young lady’s professional quality was very good. Even though Zhu Dakang was staring at her so closely, her hands were very steady. The wine with a hint of green color was slowly poured into the green cup. For a moment, it was hard to tell whether the wine was greener or the cup was greener.

As the wine trickled out, the aroma began to fill the entire venue. Many people began to lick their lips, and the aroma of the wine spread everywhere.

When the glass was 80% 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 their glasses.

Although he was fast, his movements were very gentle. He took the green cup and brought it to his nose. The wine’s fragrance, mixed with various fruit fragrances, instantly reached its peak. It was as if he was in a fruit orchard, surrounded by the sweet fruit fragrance, and his entire person felt very comfortable.

Zhou Shijie also carried a cup. Only Yuan Zhou didn’t carry the liquor. Last night, after the opening hours of the pub ended, he had drunk a pot of monkey’s wine which was about 1.5 kg. Today, he wouldn’t touch liquor.
