Chapter 2137 Although I don’t understand, I have a good wife
The winery was small, but the wine cellar was huge, at least hundreds of square meters, and it obviously encroached on the land of the surrounding neighbors - but Qi Xinghuai dug very deep, so no one noticed.
The wine cellar was filled with jars, some of which were empty and some of which were sealed with mud.
The most eye-catching one is a cylindrical barrel with a metallic luster.
If I read it correctly...
That's a beer barrel, right?
There are several empty glass bottles placed next to the draft beer barrel. They are not exactly the same as the bottles containing the Immortal Drunk, but they are almost the same.
Smelling the faint aroma of Immortal Drunk in the wine cellar, Ling Tian felt as if he had discovered some incredible secret.
He walked over and opened the draft beer barrel, and a stronger aroma escaped.
"Hey, stop stirring it, the smell will be gone soon!"
Qi Xinghuai slammed the lid back on and sternly warned Ling Tian, "If the taste is weak, it will affect the reputation of Xianrenzui!"
Ling Tian's mouth twitched, and he pointed at the draft beer barrel and asked, "Is this how Immortal Drunk is produced... and poured out?"
There is no distillation equipment and no dedicated production workshop.
Purely hand-filled?
Qi Xinghuai rolled his eyes at him, "Nonsense, I don't know how to brew wine. Even if I could... I don't have the recipe, how would I know how to brew Immortal Drunk?"
"…So the Immortal Drunk is actually a blended wine?"
"Blended wine?"
This was the first time Qi Xinghuai heard this statement.
He thought about it and nodded, "You can say that, but the original version of Immortal Drunk is not like that. I just can't help it..."
As he spoke, he walked to the innermost part and picked up a small jar of wine.
The jar is not much bigger than a basketball.
There was a lot of dust on the cover.
He dusted himself off and said to Ling Tian mysteriously, "Do you want to see the real Immortal Drunk?"
The real immortal drunk?
Ling Tian's heart moved, and he nodded and said, "Is it inside?"
"almost."
Qi Xinghuai opened the lid.
no taste.
Ling Tian leaned over to take a look and saw something similar to lard inside.
Qi Xinghuai casually took out an... earpick?
He gently took a little white paste from the jar and handed it to Ling Tian, "Try it?"
Ling Tian looked at the wine cream which was smaller than a grain of rice with a speechless look, and he really had no appetite to taste it.
"It's not poisonous."
Qi Xinghuai thought he was worried that he would poison him.
Put the wine paste in your mouth.
He took out a new ear spoon, rubbed it in the jar, and handed it to Ling Tian again.
Ling Tian didn't know what to say anymore.
He hesitated.
He still took it.
The moment you put it in your mouth, the rich aroma of wine suddenly explodes.
It was several times stronger than the Immortal Drunk he had drunk not long ago.
An indescribable feeling followed, as if he had used the crystal to practice for the first time, and all the pores in his body opened up.
It's so comfortable that you can't wait to indulge in it.
It lasted for several minutes before the feeling slowly faded away.
Looking at the wine jar again, Ling Tian's eyes became fiery, "Is this the real immortal drunkenness?"
"Uh... almost."
Qi Xinghuai gave the same answer as before. He carefully sealed the wine jar again, held it in his arms like a treasure and said, "This is the wine paste of the Immortal Drunk. Its effect is a little worse than the real Immortal Drunk."
"But even wine paste is hard to get. I went to great lengths to steal... ahem, bring it out."
steal?
Ling Tian caught that word.
But seeing the embarrassment on Qi Xinghuai's face, he swallowed back the words that were about to come out of his mouth.
Turning his head to look at the wine jars around him, thinking about the half-filled wine cream, he asked, "If it is blended, why is the output so small?"
"Scarcity makes things valuable!"
Qi Xinghuai shook his head in disdain, "You don't even understand this principle. It's a good thing you don't do business, otherwise you would lose everything."
Ling Tian said calmly: "Although I don't understand, I have a good wife."
"..."
I poke!
Qi Xinghuai felt very hurt.
We were just chatting, why did you stuff me with dog food for no reason?
"I won't talk to you anymore. I have to hurry and run away."
Looking at the other wine jars with heartache, Qi Xinghuai gritted his teeth and prepared to go up.
As a result, he was held down by Ling Tian.
Ling Tian pulled the wine jar containing the wine paste out of his arms, held it in the air, and said calmly: "I am very interested in the Qi family."
"..."
Your uncle's!
You think I'm powerless now because I'm bullying you?
Qi Xinghuai was so angry that he gritted his teeth, but he had no way to deal with Ling Tian.
He stared at the wine jar nervously and said, "Whatever you want to know, I'll tell you. Put down the wine paste first..."
Although it can be used even if it is dirty, it is somewhat inhumane.
"You said before that Yongzhou City is just a small city under the jurisdiction of the Qi family. What about Langyue City?"
"Langyue City..."
Qi Xinghuai thought of a suitable metaphor, "Do you know how to raise a dog?"
Ling Tian shook his head.
Qi Xinghuai said: "You can't just raise one dog, you have to raise at least two. Reward the obedient ones and beat the disobedient ones."
"Wait till the end and keep the obedient one."
"Those who don't obey will be killed directly."
Ling Tian frowned thoughtfully, "Langyue City is another dog raised by your Qi family?"
"Not on the surface."
Qi Xinghuai suddenly lowered his voice and said, "If the two dogs you raised knew your thoughts, they would definitely unite to plot against you."
"Sometimes this one obeys, sometimes the other one obeys."
"How do you choose?"
"So you can't have them know each other's identities."
"It becomes a domestic dog and an 'outsider dog' fighting each other, and each one is trying their best."
Ling Tian understood.
To put it bluntly, it means secretly supporting Langyue City and letting it fight against Yongzhou City.
But whether it is the people from Langyue City or Yongzhou City, they don’t know that they are actually dogs of the Qi family.
In this way, both sides will fight to the death.
Although it was not very humane to do so, Ling Tian had to admit it.
It's not an ordinary person who can come up with this idea.
"What is your purpose for doing this?"
he asked again.
Qi Xinghuai waved his hands hurriedly, "What do you mean by you? I am not on the same side as them! Don't talk nonsense!"
"As for the purpose...what purpose could it be?"
"You get a dog, either to guard the house or to provide emotional value to yourself, what else can you do?"
He made it sound simple, but Ling Tian always felt that it was not that simple.
If there is no other benefit.
Why should the Qi family go to so much trouble... Maybe it can't be said to be a lot of trouble, but to control Yongzhou City and secretly cultivate a Langyue City, it did take some thought.
You can't just keep it for fun?
But looking at Qi Xinghuai's expression, he seemed to really think so.
He skipped the topic, drew two circles on the ground, and asked: "The inner circle is the cage, and the outer ones are Yongzhou City and Langyue City..."
After thinking about it, he drew another line in the middle.
"This line is the Abyss. This half is what I said. What about the other half?"
"Where is the Qi family?"
