There are many familiar things in France, such as the Eiffel Tower, the Louvre, Napoleon, and wine.

Speaking of wine, of course, Bordeaux has to be mentioned.

Bordeaux is a port city in the southwestern part of France. It is the largest wine town in the world, and the wine produced here is the most famous.

Bordeaux's grape planting area ranks first among the three major wine-producing regions in France. In the Bordeaux region alone, there are more than 9000 wine gardens and wine castles.

In Bordeaux, stretches of grape plantations can be seen everywhere.

It was midsummer at this time, and it was the season when grapes were ready to be harvested. Bunches of dark purple grapes hung heavily on the vines, looking very attractive.

Today is the annual wine tasting conference in the Bordeaux region. Every winery will show some good wines to the people. Many wine lovers and wine dealers from all over the world will come here on this day just to taste good wines. .

Liu Xing and Bai Shuangshuang also came here, among a large number of wine lovers.

According to the informant, traces of a man suspected of Zhang Changlin were found here, and he frequently appeared in a winery called Bell.

Chateau Bell is a very inconspicuous winery among more than 9000 wineries in Bordeaux. It is not easy to find Chateau Bell in the wine tasting conference.

Each winery has its own wine stand, where they will distribute the wines produced by their own winery to guests from all over the world.

Liu Xing and Bai Shuangshuang were looking for the wine stand of Bell Winery among countless wineries. Suddenly, the booth in the center of the conference became lively, and many people gathered around there.

Bai Shuangshuang asked curiously, "What are they going to do?"

Liu Xing raised his ears and said with a smile: "It seems that the wine tasting competition that every wine tasting meeting has started."

Bai Shuangshuang became interested when he heard it: "Let's go and have a look too."

Liu Xing thought for a while, anyway, he couldn't find the wine counter of Bell Winery for a while, so why not go and have a look first, he was also very curious, what is going on with this wine tasting competition.

The two followed the flow of people to the central booth, which was already crowded with many people.

A host stood on the stage and was announcing the rules of the wine tasting contest. The general idea was that ten bottles of wine would be selected from the top five wineries. The contestants would taste the ten bottles of wine. If they could accurately judge the ten bottles of wine Which winery is it from, what is the name of the wine, and which year it was produced, you can win these bottles of wine and a grand prize of [-] francs.

The so-called five wineries are the five first-level wineries in the Bordeaux area.

In Bordeaux, wineries are classified according to the quality of the wine they produce. Apart from Chateau Yquem, the best super-first-growth winery, the five first-level wineries are the best wineries in Bordeaux.

They are: Chateau Lafite, Chateau Latour, Chateau Margaux, Chateau Hongyanrong and Chateau Mouton.

The wines selected for today's wine tasting competition come from these five wineries.

After the host read out the rules, the service staff carefully took out the sober wine. There were ten bottles in total, and each winery provided two bottles.

The wine tasting competition is a must-have event for every wine tasting conference, but due to the difficulty, no one has ever won the competition or received rewards. Even the most experienced wine taster, it is difficult to continue Judge correctly ten wines.

As soon as the game started, someone volunteered to go on stage to taste wine. Under the gaze of everyone, he picked up the first glass of wine and slowly swung the glass clockwise. After observing for a while, he put the glass on his nose, closed his eyes and sniffed hard. He took a sniff, then took a sip, and slowly savored it in his mouth, showing an expression of contentment and enjoyment.

Seeing his appearance, Liu Xing thought of a poem: Grape Wine Luminous Cup, if you want to drink the pipa, immediately urge it.

Wine is not unique to the West. In ancient China, the ancients began to drink wine very early, so there are such wonderful poems.

After tasting the wine, the man on the stage pondered for a moment, then wrote down his answer with the pen and paper prepared by the meeting.

The referee in charge of judging took a look at the answer he wrote and said, "The answer is wrong."

Woo... There was a burst of boos from the audience, and the man on the stage walked down depressed amidst the boos.

The host asked loudly: "Is there anyone else who is willing to come up and challenge?"

The field was quiet, everyone looked at me, I looked at you, no one wanted to go up.

Everyone knows that this is a very difficult challenge. Since the beginning of this challenge, no one has succeeded in the past ten years. If there is no absolute certainty and strength, it will only be the result of embarrassment.

When this challenge first appeared, there was an endless stream of people who came to participate, and many self-righteous wine tasting masters were eager to try it. However, it turned out that this is a very difficult challenge. Over the past ten years, no one has ever been able to Complete this challenge.

So as time goes by, fewer and fewer people are willing to participate, and even those very famous wine tasting masters don't want to go up and lose face.

After waiting for a long time, an old man in his fifties finally walked up.

"Master Edmund, do you want to challenge again this year?" The host was not surprised when he saw the old man on stage.

This old man named Edmond is a senior member of the French Wine Association, one of the best wine tasters in France, and he also owns a winery. He has participated in the challenge for five consecutive years, but he failed every time.

Unconvinced, he stepped onto the challenge stage again this year.

"Stop talking nonsense, let's start directly." Edmund looked confident, as if he would definitely be able to complete the challenge this year.

What he was interested in was not the few bottles of wine and the reward of [-] francs, but to prove that he was the best wine taster in the world.

Edmund is worthy of being one of the best wine tasters in France. From his calm and unrestrained posture and meticulous every step, you can see the gap between him and the man just now.

He put down the wine he had finished tasting, thought for a while, then wrote down his answer, and handed it to the referee confidently.

The referee glanced at it and announced loudly: "The answer to the first glass of wine is correct."

Immediately there were loud applause, whistles, and cheers from the field.

"Wow, that's amazing. You can know the winery's wine and the year of production with just one sip. I'm afraid not many people can do this." Bai Shuangshuang was amazed at Edmund's performance.

Although Liu Xing also thinks that this person is very powerful, if he is allowed to come, it is guaranteed to be completely correct, who let himself have such a heaven-defying skill in identification.

Edmund proudly came to the second glass of wine amidst the applause, then the third glass, and the fourth glass. It didn't take long for him to get seven glasses of wine right in a row, and after three more glasses of wine, he would Be the first to succeed in this challenge in over a decade.

The applause from the audience became more and more enthusiastic, encouraging him non-stop.

However, when it came to the eighth glass, Edmund's expression became more serious. He had already tasted this glass of wine several times, but he still frowned tightly and did not give an answer for a long time.

At this time, the host said at the right time: "It seems that our Master Edmund is stumped by this glass of wine. I wonder if Master Edmund can give the correct answer?"

After 5 minutes of thinking, Edmund solemnly wrote down his answer.

After seeing it, the referee shook his head regretfully: "I'm sorry, Master Edmund, your answer is wrong."

Hey, there was a lot of regret from the audience, and the spectators were all regretting Edmund's loss.

Edmon's face was ashen, and his face was full of disappointment. He had prepared for this wine tasting conference for a full year. He thought he could make a blockbuster, but he still did not cross this hurdle, and poured the eighth bottle of wine. superior.

"Can I know the correct answer?" Edmund was still a little unwilling.

The referee took out the correct answer. After Edmund read it, he thought about it carefully, and then showed his original expression, and had no choice but to walk off the stage desolately.

Bai Shuangshuang looked at Edmund's lonely figure when he left the stage, and said, "This challenge is too difficult, there is no way anyone can do it."

After hearing this, Liu Xing said casually: "What's so difficult about it, I can tell it easily."

As soon as he finished speaking, he immediately closed his mouth angrily.

Sure enough, Bai Shuangshuang immediately grabbed his hand and said in surprise: "Really, then go up and try it, it's worth a hundred thousand francs."

"No." Liu Xing flatly refused.

"Go, go, if you succeed, you'll be proud of us Chinese." Bai Shuangshuang continued to persuade.

"If you don't want to go, you won't go." Liu Xing's attitude was very firm.

Bai Shuangshuang's eyes rolled, and she thought about it, and she said: "If you succeed, just say on stage that you want to find people from Bell Winery, I think they will appear in front of you immediately. It takes so much hard work to find it.”

Hearing what Bai Shuangshuang said, Liu Xing thought for a while, and it seemed very reasonable. It is indeed very difficult to find a little-known Bell Winery among thousands of wineries. If you use this method It must have an immediate effect.

He happened to be able to sneak into Bell Winery as a master wine taster without being suspected by Zhang Changlin.

"Okay, then I'll try it." Liu Xing smiled at Bai Shuangshuang, then squeezed through the crowd and walked onto the stage.

"Here comes another brave challenger, where are you from?" the host asked loudly.

Liu Xing said, "I'm from China."

"It turned out to be a friend from China. Are you confident to complete this challenge?"

Of course Liu Xing has [-]% confidence, but if he shows it like this, he will appear too arrogant. He said modestly: "Just try it, in case you guess right."

The host made a gesture, "Please begin."

Liu Xing nodded to the host, and then came to the first glass of wine refilled.
