sleep forever

Chen Xiansong could smell the wine before he got close to the "wine-making street" that Sigel said. The closer he got, the stronger the smell became. When he reached the street, the smell was so strong that he I feel like my nose has lost its sense of smell.But Sigear closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and said comfortably: "It really makes people feel refreshed, Your Excellency Chen Xiansong, what do you think?"

Chen Xiansong originally wanted to cover his nose, but he had no choice but to give up when he heard the words. He smiled a little forcedly: "It really smells good."

Sigear didn't seem to notice Chen Xiansong's reluctance, but Claude did. He shrugged unnoticed behind him and smiled lightly. There were noisy pedestrians around him. His smile The sound was instantly drowned out by the noise, and no one could hear it.

Because it is a street and a wine making place, it is a bit messy here.The ground was full of water stains, mixed with the broken peel and flesh. As soon as the four of them entered the street, the surroundings slowly quieted down. There was no way, the robes of the soul thinker were too conspicuous, and their status was quite high. Ordinary people don't dare to 'make mistakes' in front of them.

However, the street soon became lively again, and many people greeted Sigear loudly. It seemed that she was an acquaintance here.Along the way, similar situations have been repeated.When the merchants on the street saw the four of them, they were quiet first, and then quickly greeted Sigyl, as if seeing this girl could make them feel at ease.

"It seems that you are very prestigious here!" Chen Xiansong was behind, half admiring, half asking.

Sigear turned her head back, smiling with an extremely relaxed joy: "Because I grew up here since I was a child." She waved her hand to respond to the wine merchants who greeted her, and continued: "My family is In the fruit wine business, I specialize in this area of ​​knowledge, although Teacher Suoxi was not very happy, but in the end he still acquiesced to my waywardness."

Claude answered from the side: "The fruit wine of Sigir's family is the most famous and delicious in the city, and she is the biggest contributor. I remember that when I was a child, Sigir hadn't become a soul-thinking wine. Or, at that time, the business of her family's hotel was a little... idle. After she became a soul thinker, her family's business gradually improved, and then became the number one in the city within a few years. The people here, privately gave her Nicknamed, Fruit Wine's Daughter."

Sigil smiled a little embarrassedly, but also a little proud. A girl supporting the prosperity of a family is indeed enough to make people feel quite fulfilled.

She took Chen Xiansong's hand and kept running fast, and soon people thought that Chen Xiansong was the man she had found, and she whistled or shouted loudly from time to time, but she didn't have much reaction.After running for a while, she brought Chen Xiansong to a building with a huge storefront, and walked in.

There was a middle-aged man in the store who was negotiating business with someone. When he saw someone coming in from outside, he thought it was a customer. He turned around and saw that it was his own daughter. What are you doing running home?"

"Bring a few friends over to have a look." Sigear let go of Chen Xiansong's hand, and ran to his father to be good: "Can't I come back and help?"

"All right."

The middle-aged man smiled lovingly.He saw his daughter holding hands with the boy standing outside just now, and he had some strange associations in his mind.I couldn't help looking at Chen Xiansong, and after a while, I nodded with satisfaction.In his opinion, Chen Xiansong has a good temperament, both are "soul thinkers", and both sides have a common language.Most importantly, Chen Xiansong gave him a rather 'clean' feeling.This kind of cleanliness does not refer to personal hygiene, but a cleanliness of temperament.He originally thought that his daughter and Claude were more suitable, but now it seems that this boy's conditions are better, but soon, he saw Bai Min, and he was a little bit unsure after being surprised, after all, Bai Min stood The location is very close to Chen Xiansong, almost shoulder to shoulder, obviously the relationship between the two is quite close.

He was a little puzzled, since the other party had such a beautiful woman, why did he still hold hands with his daughter!He suppressed the doubts in his heart, smiled at his daughter and asked, "Daughter, who are the two over there?"

"Oh, he's a colleague from Heitu City, Your Excellency Chen Xiansong." Sigear pointed to the boy and introduced, "Another beautiful girl seems to be his maid. I don't know the name too, no Too dare to ask."

"Hi sir, it's our first time meeting." Chen Xiansong nodded, and then introduced the girl beside him: "This is my housekeeper, Bai Min, who is also my fiancée."

Bai Min blinked his eyes, and moved his hands crossed in front of his abdomen lightly.

'It turned out to be Bai Min. 'Claude secretly wrote down the name.

fiancée!The middle-aged man felt a little disappointed and a little annoyed, since you already have a fiancee, why are you so affectionate with my daughter.At that moment, his face paled a little, although there was still a smile on his face: "Your Excellency, please sit down, and Your Excellency Claude, it's been a long time since you came to my place."

Claude said with a smile: "It's only about ten days, Uncle Ximei, you are too exaggerated."

The wine merchant who had been negotiating business with Ximei just now had his throat dry when he saw the three soul thinkers. Taking this opportunity, he hurriedly said goodbye and left the wine shop almost like a trot.Xi Mei went to the inner hall to move some chairs out.Taking advantage of this opportunity, Sigil opened her hands and turned around cutely, her robe fluttering lightly. She asked with a smile, "What do you think of this shop?"

Chen Xiansong looked at it for a while, and said: "It's quite neat. The design of the shelves is different from other stores, focusing on order. In front of the jars of each fruit wine, there is a wooden sign with the name and taste of the wine. I paid attention to it along the way. After a while, other hotels don’t seem to have this kind of convenience for customers to buy goods, it seems that it is unique to your family?”

"Hee hee, you observe very carefully." Sigear smiled proudly: "This is the design I thought of, not bad. I think this is much more convenient than other shops."

The floor of this wine store is quite tidy, which is quite different from other wine stores that are a little messy. There are also simple product descriptions. It is no wonder that there are more customers here than other places.While they were talking, several guests came in from outside, but when they saw three soul thinkers staying inside, they immediately turned around and left.

At this time, Ximei and the clerk moved chairs and tables, while Sigel went to the shelf to get several jars of fruit wine with different flavors, placed a few exquisite small bowls, pulled off the cork of the wine jars, poured He gave Chen Xiansong a glass of fragrant fruit wine, and invited him to taste it with full expectation.

The alcohol content of fruit wine is generally not high. Chen Xiansong drank it in one gulp, and Sigear asked expectantly: "How does it taste?"

"Not bad, it tastes better than what I used to drink." Chen Xiansong said honestly.

"Hey, then try this one again." Sigear changed the jar, poured him a glass, and then poured a glass for Claude next to him: "You come and taste it too."

In this way, the two drank several glasses in a row.Alcohol is a good thing, but for the less alcoholic, that's about it.Due to etiquette, after a few drinks, Chen Xiansong felt that his stomach was bloated. Seeing that Sigyl seemed to want to continue pouring wine, he shook his head hurriedly: "I don't usually drink much, and if I drink any more, I will get drunk. gone."

Claude said with a smile on the side: "Sigel, you invited Mr. Chen to come to your house, not just to let him drink your wine, just tell me if you have anything, I can tell, Chen Xiansong Your Excellency is quite eloquent."

Sigear stuck out his tongue, and said playfully, "Claude, don't keep tearing down my platform...well, I invite His Excellency Chen Xiansong to come here for something. You should know, Our Kate Kingdom is rich in fruit wine, and our Qingxi City is the best among them. However, I heard that the wine in the Kingdom of Zhendan is a kind of rice wine. It is said that it is made from rice. Different varieties of crops have different tastes. , I have tried the method of making rice wine with fruit wine, although it is true that the wine is produced, but the taste always seems to be a bit strange. Your Excellency Chen should be a citizen of Zhendan before, do you know the correct method of making various rice wines?"

Chen Xiansong shook his head: "I'm sorry, I'm not very interested in wine, and I don't have any knowledge about it."

Sigear's eyes lit up, and she sensitively caught the loophole in Chen Xiansong's sentence. The latter said 'not in contact with', not 'unobtainable or inaccessible', which shows that the other party has the ability to learn these things Knowledge.

"Your Excellency, as the daughter of a liquor store, I hope to learn various methods of brewing." Sigel said softly: "If you have a way to get the rice brewing technology of the Kingdom of Cathay, I would like to A considerable price was paid for it.”

Sigear's father Ximei was sitting aside, and when he heard this, his eyes rolled.

Chen Xiansong didn't know how to make wine, but he felt that Bai Min should know, so he looked at the girl standing next to him as a matter of course.

"How do you plan to pay?" Bai Min asked a step forward.

Sigil looked at the girl with some strangeness. Of course, she felt a little envy and jealousy about Bai Min's appearance, but she also took it easy and didn't take the gap between the two sides to heart. After all, she is rare. Female soul thinkers, and their looks are not bad, but most men are chasing marriage targets.

"It depends on the winemaking method you master and what kind of quality wine." When it comes to business, Sigyl's cheerful face suddenly becomes serious: "But even the lowest Yellow turbid rice wine, I am also willing to spend three hundred gold coins to buy its formula."

"How much is distilled liquor worth?" Bai Min stared at the other party. As a qualified housekeeper, it is quite necessary to conduct business negotiations for Xiao Song and strive for the best interests for him. The established character in the chip.

Just this moment, Sigear was stunned for a moment: "Distilled liquor, does the Kingdom of Cathay have this kind of liquor?"

Bai Min thought for a while with the brain chip, and asked, "Do you have any other alcohol from the Cathay Kingdom? Can you let me see it?"

"Of course." Sigear smiled and asked the clerk to bring out a few wine jars from the back shop.She herself likes the wine-making process quite a lot, so she has a collection of most of the wines in the world, one for tasting, and the other for "deciphering". However, the production process of the rice wine in the Kingdom of Cathay seems to be better than that of her. It's even more difficult, she can use rice to make wine, but the taste is always wrong and it's quite unpalatable.

Several wine jars were opened, and the unique slightly sour smell of rice wine came out. Bai Min went to look at each one, and then she asked Sigel, "How do you distinguish the grades of these wines here?"

"This one is the highest! One gold coin per jar." Sigear pointed to a wine jar, which had 'Tianshi rice brewing' written in Chinese characters.

"This one is the worst. Nine copper coins per jar." The jar she pointed to second had 'yellow wine' written on it.

Sigil sat down, pointed to the other wine jars and said, "The others are almost the same, and the price is between three silver coins and five silver coins."

Chen Xiansong also went to the various rice wine jars to look, and found that they were all turbid wine, and the taste was not mellow enough.However, he didn't have much research on wine, so he didn't express any opinion, and went back to his chair directly.Claude's eyes kept wandering around the two girls, but most of the time, his eyes were still stuck on Bai Min's body.

"Distilled baijiu is completely different from them." Bai Min thought for a moment and said, "Its color is as clear as spring water. It has a very strong aroma and a high alcohol content. It has twelve different flavors."

"Wine as clear as spring water?" Sigear was a little skeptical: "Does it still smell like wine?"

"Not only is there, but it's also very strong. If you don't believe me, there's nothing I can do about it." Bai Min looked straight at the other party, and her serious gaze made Sigear a little stressed.

At this time, Xi Mei, who had been listening for a long time, interjected, his expression a little excited: "I heard that the emperor of the Kingdom of Zhendan had a kind of tribute wine. The name seems to be Heluo Daqu. It is said that a thousand catties of grain About ten catties of wine can be brewed from rice. It is said that its color is as clean and beautiful as stream water, especially when it is placed in a magic crystal bottle and placed under the moonlight, it can appear in the same color as a small rainbow.”

"I've heard the name Heluo Daqu before. It is said that it is a great nobleman inherited by Heluo for more than 2000 years. It is the secret of the Heluo Chen family..." Sigear only remembered this kind of thing after hearing what his father said. Almost a legendary wine.She suddenly widened her eyes, and she pointed at Chen Xiansong vigorously: "Heluo Chen's family, the wine is as clean and mellow as spring water... Could it be you!"

Claude's eyebrows seemed to tremble, and then eased back, as if he hadn't heard anything.

The two father and daughter looked at each other, and after a short period of stupefaction, Sigear took a breath: "Heluo... No, it's the formula for distilling liquor. I want it, and I believe it. What kind of price do you need?"

"Twelve flavors, five thousand gold coins for each flavor." Bai Min said.

"It's too expensive. If it's one or two kinds, we can afford it, but twelve...we have a small family business, so we can't pay so much money." Sigear turned his head to look at Chen Xiansong, his tone somewhat Begging: "His Excellency Chen Xiansong, everyone is a soul thinker, can it be cheaper."

Bai Min interjected, "It can't be cheap."

Chen Xiansong originally wanted to agree, but since Bai Min spoke first, he had no choice but to keep his mouth shut. "Natural Men's Necessary Self-cultivation and World View" clearly pointed out: After a man gets married, the trivial matters at home, such as making money and managing money, should be taken care of by the woman.As for the man, he only needs to focus on the big things.

Chen Xiansong deeply believed that Bai Min would be his 'housekeeper' in the future, and of course she should be in charge of these matters.But he has a question in his mind, what is the big deal?In other words, what is the definition of a big event?

Hearing Bai Min directly interrupting the conversation between himself and Chen Xiansong, Sigel was slightly displeased: "Even if you are His Excellency Chen Xiansong's fiancée, you should not be able to make a decision on such an important matter."

"I'm Xiao Song's housekeeper." Bai Min said as a matter of course: "I have the right to handle the family's financial income and expenditure."

If other housekeepers said something like 'can make decisions for the master', they would probably be regarded as violating their duty, but Bai Min's temperament is like an orchid in the empty valley, beautiful and noble, but when she says it, it will only give people A feeling of convincing.The same thing, said in the mouth of different people, the effect may be completely different, this is the role of temperament and aura.

Sigil was also convinced, her lovely face became sad, she looked at it with some complaints: "But our family's working capital can only buy one flavor... Ms. Bai Min, why did you tell me about distilling liquor? There are twelve flavors!"

"You can buy one type first, and buy the second type after saving enough money." Bai Min said flatly: "We are waiting for you in Black Earth City, and we promise not to tell others about the other formulas within five years. "

"It would be great if there were two flavors!" Sigear said a little greedily: "It's easy to get a name like that. If there are two flavors, I am confident that I can rule the entire wine industry in Qingxi City within half a year. The market, within five years, let the nobles in the entire Kate Kingdom know our brand..."

Hearing this, Claude's eyes flickered, as if his heart was moved.

Ximei suddenly came over and whispered a few words in Sigear's ear.The latter was a little bit embarrassed at first, but finally she nodded lightly, and then she said to Bai Min: "Ma'am, my father once picked up a strange object from the ancient magic era, it is our family's treasure, even Teacher Suoxi I haven't seen it before... I want to change it into five thousand gold coins and change it to another flavor, is it possible?"

Ancient relics, that's something from the 22nd century.Hearing this, Bai Min turned to look at Chen Xiansong, as if asking for his opinion.

"What kind of ancient relic?" Chen Xiansong was curious.

"A round plate-shaped thing, silver. The texture is very hard, no matter how you chop it with a knife, it will not leave a trace. On the contrary, the knife will be damaged." Sigear said slowly: "And in its In the middle, there is a green dot, which is a bit like an eye. It is usually green. If it is placed in a dark place for a long time, it will turn reddish. If it is left for a long time, the red spot will disappear, but take it out again Put it in the sun, and it will slowly turn green again."

Hearing Sigel's description, Bai Min's body moved slightly.

Xi Mei interjected: "It's very light, but also very hard. I think it might be a special round shield from the ancient magic era."

Chen Xiansong nodded, of course he is very interested in things of his own era: "Can you let me see?"
