Chapter 361 What's so good about red wine?



Soon, the group arrived at Chen Dong's villa.

Ou Yongen led Jian Aowei into the wine cellar where red wine was stored.

The wine shelves are filled with a dazzling array of high-end red wines, including Domaine de la Romanée-Conti's Medusa, Domaine de la Décor's white wines, and Massandra's fortified wines, among others.

Each type of red wine was worth tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of US dollars, leaving Jian Aowei dumbfounded.

"My God, you guys are so extravagant!" Jian Aowei exclaimed.

Ou Yongen laughed and said, "Xin Xin, Qiu Ti, and I all like to drink red wine, so Shen Dong asked someone to buy us all kinds of high-end red wines."

"He really dotes on you all," Jian Aowei said.

Au Wing-yan nodded and said, "Indeed. Besides the red wine, Brother Tung also gave each of us more than ten pieces of jewelry, all worth over 100 million Hong Kong dollars."

Jian Aowei laughed and said, "This guy is quite generous to spend so much money on you. Seeing you so happy, I'm relieved."

Ou Yongen said, "Godfather, don't worry, he's very, very good to me. Xin Xin and Qiu Ti are also very kind, and we hardly feel any distance between us."

Jian Aowei said, "That's good. It's just that there are so many good wines, I don't know which one to choose."

Ou Yongen chuckled and said, "Since you've come all this way, of course you should drink the best. That bottle of Musini Grand Cru red wine is only produced in fifty cases a year, and it costs thirty thousand US dollars a bottle. We'll drink that tonight."

Jian Aowei hesitated and asked, "Won't Adong blame you?"

Ou Yongen said, "He has no interest in red wine at all, so how could he blame me? As for Xin Xin and Qiu Ti, they would be even less likely to.

Jane Aowei nodded and said, "That's good. Hehe, I'm really lucky to be able to drink the world's best red wine today because of you. To be honest, I've only ever heard of wines of this caliber; I've never even seen one before."

Ou Yongen said, "Then get a few more bottles that you haven't tried before."

The two selected four bottles of top-quality red wine before leaving the wine cellar and heading to the living room.

Jian Aowei still felt it was somewhat inappropriate, so he said to Shen Dong, "A Dong, aren't we being too greedy? We've brought out four bottles of top-quality red wine all at once."

Shen Dong shrugged and said, "That wine cellar has nothing to do with me. Even if you drink it all, I won't mind. This rubbish is ridiculously expensive, but tastes awful. I really don't understand why you people like it so much?"

Jane Aowei said helplessly, "You really should learn how to appreciate red wine."

Shen Dong pointed to the Moutai on the table and said, "This is my favorite. It tastes better than any red wine in the world."

Li Xinxin laughed and said, "Uncle Jian, talking to my husband about red wine is like casting pearls before swine. In his mind, a bottle of red wine worth 100,000 US dollars might not taste as good as that kind of diluted wine drink that costs 12 Hong Kong dollars."

"Pfft"

"Hahaha"

Upon hearing Li Xinxin's words, everyone couldn't help but burst into laughter.

Shen Dong said irritably, "Li Xinxin, you're getting bolder and bolder. Once they're gone, I'll show you how terrible the price you pay for saying the wrong thing."

Li Xinxin understood Shen Dong's meaning perfectly well. Her face instantly flushed red, and she murmured, "I'm not afraid of you at all."

Qiu Ti said, "Alright, let's cook. Does anyone want to show off their skills?"

Jane Aowei raised her hand and shouted, "I'll make the steak."

Ou Yongen laughed and said, "Everyone is in for a treat today. My godfather's steak is even better than that of a Michelin-starred chef."

Jian Aowei quickly said, "Yong'en, don't brag to me. If it doesn't taste good, I'll be incredibly embarrassed."

Shen Dong joked, "It's alright. Even if your cooking isn't very good, we'll still say it's delicious. We know how to respect our elders."

Jian Aowei glared at him and said, "Adong, explain yourself clearly, who is the old man? Have you ever seen such a young old man?"

"Ha ha ha ha"

Laughter erupted again from the living room.

Soon, everyone used their skills to prepare a delicious dinner.

Shen Dong poured himself a glass of Moutai. Seeing everyone else drinking red wine, he frowned and said, "Mr. Peng, never mind, I'll just call you Brother Peng. It's no fun drinking baijiu alone. Why don't you have a drink with me?"

Peng Yixing shook his head and said, "You can drink baijiu anytime, but such good wine is really rare. I'll drink red wine instead."

Jane Aowei asked, "Then I'll test you. What kind of red wine are you drinking?"

Peng Yixing said, "I see the bottle. It's a Le Havre Moussigny Grand Cru red wine. Le Havre owns nine Grand Cru vineyards in France, among which Moussigny, Chambertin, and Richebourg are the most expensive, and their annual production is extremely limited, so ordinary people can't even get their hands on one. This bottle is worth at least 30,000 US dollars, and it's priceless."

"Clap clap clap clap"

Everyone applauded Peng Yixing's introduction.

Jian Aowei gave a thumbs up and said, "Mr. Peng, it seems you know a lot about red wine."

Peng Yixing laughed and said, "I only know a little bit about it."

Jian Aowei said, "Adong, why don't you just switch to red wine too?"

Shen Dong raised an eyebrow and said, "That won't do. Truth is usually held by a minority, and I am one of those few. Come on, let's stop with the nonsense and raise a glass together to congratulate Brother Peng on winning the championship and to congratulate Yong En on achieving his best result in history and making it into the top five."

"cheers."

The crowd shouted in unison.
