Lin Xuan picked up the wine bottle and helped them pour the wine.
With their previous experience, they were already prepared this time. They picked up the wine glasses and drank a little slowly.
"What a strong wine. This kind of wine is what men drink. Now I realize that the wine I drank before was just like water." Cheng Yaojin praised loudly.
Yuchi Gong and Niu Jinda agreed: "Yes, this wine is really enjoyable."
"Although this wine is strong, it is very smooth in the mouth. It is indeed a rare wine." Li Jing nodded and said.
Lin Xuan saw that their food hadn't come yet, so he kept drinking wine, a little worried that they were drunk.
Although they all have a good capacity for drinking, and they claim to be able to drink a thousand cups without getting drunk, that only means low-alcohol wine. They may not be able to drink much of this kind of spirits with dozens of degrees of alcohol content.
Xin Hao only served a few of them in the restaurant today, and it didn't take long for the food to arrive.
Lin Xuan quickly greeted: "Uncles, come and have some food, don't just drink."
"Come on, come on, eat the food. The food here is really delicious. It's your first time here, pharmacist, so you have to try it." Cheng Yaojin, as the initiator and half the owner, said with a smile after hearing Lin Xuan's words.
"I want to see what the dish you praise as a flower actually tastes." Li Jing said with a smile.
Regardless of status or seniority here, he is the highest. If he doesn't take action first, it will be difficult for others to take action.
Li Jing picked up a piece of braised pork with chopsticks and put it in his mouth to eat.
"It's fat but not greasy, it melts in your mouth, it's really delicious." Li Jing nodded and said.
The others saw Li Jing starting to eat, and they also picked up their chopsticks and started eating. This was not their first time eating, so they all picked their favorite dishes to eat.
"What are you doing standing there? Sit down and eat together." Cheng Yaojin said when he saw Lin Xuan standing there.
"The uncles are having a meal, there is no place for me to sit. I can just pour you wine." Lin Xuan said.
He has a very clear positioning of himself, what is his identity with others, and what is his own identity?
Don't take yourself seriously just because you call someone "uncle" a few times.
"I asked you, what are you doing to your mother-in-law? If you are told to sit down, just sit down and sit down and have a few drinks with us." Yu Chigong said dissatisfied.
These people all rose from humble beginnings. Except for Li Jing who served as a steward during the Sui Dynasty, the others had not had high status before.
Cheng Yaojin was a bandit, Yuchi Gong was a forger, and Niu Jinda was also born in Wagang.
They don't value status that much, as long as it suits their tastes.
Lin Xuan entertained them with such good wine. If Lin Xuan stood while they were drinking, how could they have the nerve to drink?
Seeing this, Lin Xuan had no choice but to say: "Then let me drink some with some uncles."
After sitting down, Lin Xuan poured himself some wine, stood up and said, "I would like to propose a toast to the four uncles."
"I think you just want to drink." Yuchi Gong said with a smile.
After having a drink with Cheng Yaojin and the other four, Lin Xuan poured them more wine before sitting down.
"My dear nephew, the wine is almost gone. Do you have any more? Get some out." Cheng Yaojin looked at the bottomed wine bottle and said to Lin Xuan.
"Uncles, this wine was left behind by my master. I only have this bottle, and it will be gone after drinking it." Lin Xuan said.
When Li Jing and the others heard that it was just this bottle, they felt a little regretful and said, "Such a good wine is indeed rare. If I had known better, I would have saved more."
Yuchi Gong rolled his eyes, grabbed the few remaining wines in his hand, and said, "This is mine, don't grab it from me."
Normally, Cheng Yaojin would have gone to grab it, but today he didn't. Instead, he stared at Lin Xuan and said, "I remember you told me last time that you wanted to make wine. Could it be this kind of wine?"
"What! Can you make this wine?" Yu Chigong and the others looked at Lin Xuan in surprise.
Lin Xuan coughed dryly and said: "You can brew it, but the taste is not as good as this bottle. My craftsmanship is still inferior to that of my master."
Although he didn't understand winemaking, he remembered that after distillation, the alcohol content would become higher. As long as he built a simple distiller and distilled the Tang Dynasty's wine, wouldn't he be able to get strong liquor?
But he didn't dare to say too much. He drank a little of the wine rewarded by the system. It was indeed a fine wine. The taste of wine made by distillation alone would definitely not be comparable.
"It's okay, it doesn't matter if it tastes a little bit different than this. Anyway, it's better than what we drank before." Cheng Yaojin waved his hand and said.
Yu Chigong said, "I just don't know how the output is? Is it enough for us to drink?"
Yes, such fine wine should be very precious, and if the production is too low, it will not be of much use.
After they have drunk high-strength liquor now, if they are allowed to drink the previous wine, it will probably be difficult to swallow. The yield is too low, and they will be starved to death.
"Uncles, don't worry, the output is huge. It doesn't matter if you drink it or sell it," Lin Xuan said with a smile.
Hearing Lin Xuan say this, several people felt relieved.
Cheng Yaojin asked: "When can you get this wine out? Now I can't drink any other wine, so I'm just waiting for you to get it out."
Lin Xuan thought for a while, and needed time to experiment with the distillation equipment, so he said: "It will be done very quickly, it will take about a few days."
"So fast?"
Cheng Yaojin and the others knew that brewing wine would take a long time, and they were already mentally prepared. Unexpectedly, Lin Xuan actually said that it would be ready in just a few days, and they couldn't believe it.
"Really, you will know in a few days." Lin Xuan didn't know how to explain it at all, so he could only say this.
Although it was still unbelievable, they didn't know how this kind of wine was made, so they could only wait a few days to find out.
Yu Chigong laughed and said: "We will have it in a few days, so there is no need to keep this wine. Let him drink it all today."
He poured a little of the remaining wine into each person, diluted it directly, and then quietly put away the bottle.
"Yuchi Dasha, what are you doing? How dare you steal such a precious glass vase?" Cheng Yaojin noticed Yuchi Gong's little move.
Li Jing and others looked over and found that Yuchi Gong had put away the wine bottles, and couldn't help but feel speechless.
"Uh! I like this bottle and want to take it back and keep it." Yuchi smiled politely.
He knew how precious this bottle was. He didn't put it away just to sell it for money, and he couldn't afford to lose that person. He really liked it.
"No, this bottle belongs to Lin Xuan. How can you have the nerve to take such a precious thing?" Cheng Yaojin said dissatisfied.
Although he and Yu Chigong had a good relationship, it was him who decided to treat guests here. How could he face Lin Xuan if Yu Chigong took the bottle away.
"It's okay, it's just a bottle. Since Uncle Yuchi likes it, just take it." Lin Xuan said nonchalantly.
He really didn't care. It was just a wine bottle. No one would pick it up if it was thrown on the street.
