Dragon's Origin

The remaining option was naturally beer. The taste of beer is completely different from that of white liquor, and it's not very popular in this world. Many people dislike that flavor.

Especially since that kind of alcohol really isn't presentable. According to the records collected by Yu Baozhai, it was originally gathered from farmhouses near a mine. Usually, only uncouth miners drink it, and even the small landlords in the town don't want to touch it. If Yu Baozhai hadn't ordered them to collect any and all kinds of alcohol, those in charge of collecting wouldn't have even glanced at those beers.

Another point is that those light beers are yellowish and easily foam when poured, looking just like a bowl of urine. If Wang Sheng and Lu Wenhou hadn't both drunk it, Ling'er wouldn't have touched such a lowly thing.

Just because she sampled wine with Wang Sheng and drank that light beer, Ling'er went back and made Lu Wenhou rinse his mouth several times before allowing him to go to bed, otherwise she simply wouldn't acknowledge him.

Wang Sheng wouldn't bother arguing with the young mistress Ling'er. Beer is something best enjoyed at a barbecue stall, devouring food and chugging half a case straight from the bottle. How could a delicate young lady enjoy such a pleasure?

Fortunately, Yu Baozhai was searching all over the world for various fine wines, and this primitive beer was found, otherwise Wang Sheng wouldn't have had the chance to drink it. Wang Sheng knew the brewing method, but where could he find hops? Luckily, Yu Baozhai found them.

This also shows that it's really difficult for a person to fight alone. As long as you have money and power, finding anything is just a matter of a word. Wang Sheng initially offered two Creation Pills as a reward for a year, but later in the capital, he ate over a hundred. Didn't that mean that with just a word, others would deliver them to his door?

Holding the freshly tapped beer, Wang Sheng took a sip, tasting the flavor as if no one else was around. Hmm, it has a bit of the taste of Earth. The only thing lacking is probably insufficient carbonation. Also, it's not cold enough, missing that feeling of icy coolness that goes straight to the heart.

"Are there any experts who cultivate ice attributes? Help me chill it." Wang Sheng wasn't polite at all with Lu Wenhou, asking directly.

With Yu Baozhai's vast resources, of course there were experts who cultivated ice attributes. There was one among the guards present. Under Wang Sheng's guidance, the expert chilled the freshly brewed beer to around four or five degrees.

"Get some grilled meat skewers, brought here to grill on the spot." Now that he had ice-cold beer, wouldn't he quickly enjoy the taste of ice-cold beer with grilled meat skewers? After ordering, Wang Sheng thought for a moment and added, "Also, bring a hot pot, with meat as well."

Being able to find all kinds of fine wines from all over the world, how difficult could it be to get some simple grilled meat skewers and a hot pot? It didn't take long for the grilled meat and hot pot to be delivered to the winery.

Ling'er looked at Wang Sheng, gleefully starting to grill the meat skewers himself, with a face full of disgust, unable to understand why anyone would like to drink this horse urine-like stuff.

Although Lu Wenhou always maintained the demeanor of an elegant gentleman, it didn't stop him from watching Wang Sheng start cooking with eyes full of anticipation. Could the taste that Wang Sheng was so eagerly awaiting, not even waiting for others to grill, not be worth him trying?

As for drinking this beer being unseemly, that was just Ling'er's idea. Even Wang Sheng, esteemed as the Ever Victorious Marquis, could drink it, so what was stopping Lu Wenhou?

Wang Sheng grilled a row of thirty-plus meat skewers, using the spices from Worry-Free City, especially that small chili powder, which he sprinkled all over, making the meat skewers almost completely red.

Sitting at the table, Wang Sheng held a dozen skewers in one hand and a beer bowl in the other. Taking a bite of the skewer and a large gulp of ice-cold beer, that atmosphere instantly brought Wang Sheng back to a midsummer night on Earth. The familiar feeling almost brought tears to Wang Sheng's eyes.

Looking at Wang Sheng's hearty eating, Lu Wenhou looked at the dozen skewers that Wang Sheng had stuffed into his hand, and then looked at the yellow beer with small bubbles beside him. He gritted his teeth, and, imitating Wang Sheng, abandoned his previous restraint and etiquette, and began to devour the skewers.

If it was just eating skewers, it wouldn't have been enough for Lu Wenhou to feel any pleasure, but when the first mouthful of ice-cold beer entered his mouth, mixed with the aroma of grilled meat, and instantly solidified the grease of the grilled meat, that icy coolness was simply exhilarating.

Ling'er stared blankly at her own young master acting as unrestrained as Wang Sheng, completely unable to imagine that the always gentle and refined young master would actually make such movements like those uncouth commoners. Eating crude food and drinking crude beer, how could there actually be an expression of enjoyment?

"The hot pot is also good, try it!" Seeing Lu Wenhou finishing off a dozen skewers at a speed not slower than his, Wang Sheng was too lazy to continue grilling and immediately turned to the hot pot.

The steaming cooked meat was taken out of the pot, dipped in seasoning and sent into the mouth. Taking advantage of the heat, he chewed with a hissing sound, and a mouthful of ice-cold beer simply brought out all the aroma of the meat. Eating a steaming hot pot in the steaming brewery, what could be more refreshing than a mouthful of ice-cold beer?

"That's it." Wang Sheng pointed to the beer and said, "Find a way to add some gas to it, otherwise it's about ready to be sold. This stuff is different from white liquor, it might not be good if it's left for too long."

"Good stuff!" Lu Wenhou was still scooping things out of the hot pot to eat. At this moment, the dignified owner of Yu Baozhai was like a starving ghost who had never eaten or drunk anything before, making Ling'er feel ashamed just watching him.

"As for how to sell it, figure it out yourselves." Wang Sheng's task today was almost complete, and he didn't need to put in any more effort for the following matters. "Figure out how to keep this method secret yourselves. If there's nothing else, I'll go back first. Oh right, send more beer to the Marquis's residence."

Lu Wenhou was just taking a mouthful of beer with the hot pot, and waved his hand at Wang Sheng without raising his head when he heard the words, gobbling it up on his own.

After Wang Sheng and the guards were out of sight, Lu Wenhou resumed his previous noble demeanor and smiled at his subordinates: "Try it, it's a very interesting taste. In the future, you can think of opening a restaurant to sell alcohol."

Turning his head, Lu Wenhou saw Ling'er with a face full of disgust, and couldn't help but persuade her: "Ling'er, do you want to try it? It's a very good taste!"

Ling'er looked at the guards who were now learning from Wang Sheng and Lu Wenhou, eating and drinking, and couldn't help shaking her head. Ling'er would never drink this kind of thing even if she was beaten to death.

However, looking at the intoxicated expressions on several people's faces, and the subordinates' unhesitating scrambling actions, Ling'er also understood that something that even her own young master thought was good would definitely sell well.

That guy really has some ability. This time, Yu Baozhai will probably have another profitable business.
