Chapter 39 The Longest Cellared Wine

Fang You walked around the entire room from top to bottom, and found some ladder-like objects, but now they were all tightly blocked by soil. Judging from the density of the soil, these stairs were already the same as the soil.

The layers were tightly connected together. If it weren't for his escape technique that could penetrate the soil layers, these stairs would not have been discovered at all.

This may be a wine cellar left over from the Qing Dynasty, which was completely blocked due to some unexpected incident. As he thought about it, Fang You's eyes suddenly widened, and he seemed to be stupid. Wine cellars in the early Qing Dynasty, not to mention

These dozens of large wine vats are so valuable. The yellow liquid in them alone can make the whole world crazy.

It is a shocking thing to have wine that has been stored for nearly five hundred years. As a senior wine lover, Fang You once knew what the longest stored wine in the world is.

He once saw a ridiculous advertisement for Wuliangye on TV. It was claimed that Wuliangye had a history of a thousand years and the longest storage period was 643 years. However, some senior people scolded it for being a hype.

According to the records of the History Museum, the oldest liquor in the cellar is a liquor called Lingchuan Gongjiu. Experts believe that it was buried underground in the 25th year of Daoguang, that is, 1845 AD, and was discovered in Lingchuan in 1996.

The ruins of the old winery workshop were excavated. There are only 4 tons left in the world. What was excavated at that time was a wooden box, which is commonly known as the wooden wine box commonly used for cellaring wine. It was wrapped in layers of rice paper and had many words written on it.

, Chinese characters.

According to testing by the national authoritative department, the 25-year-old Daoguang wine stored in the wooden wine sea has an alcohol content of 53%, a slightly yellow color, and a rich aroma. It can still be drank directly even after 151 years.

The quality is more mellow, and it is also the only liquid cultural relic in the world that can be drank directly.

In 1998, the tribute wine was listed as a national key protected cultural relic by the State Administration of Cultural Heritage. Now part of the original wine is collected by the National Museum. It is the last cultural relic collection of the National Museum in the 20th century.

In October 1999, with special approval from the national cultural relics department, China Guardian International Auction Co., Ltd. held a special auction, and 86 kilograms of Daoguang 25-year-old liquor sold for 3.5 million yuan.

Then these 4 tons of Lingchuan tribute wine will be worth more than 160 million yuan, which can be said to be the most valuable liquid in the world.

Although it is not ruled out that these wines were not put in when these large wine vats were made, but based on the sealing density of this soil layer, it is absolutely certain that these wines are more than a hundred years old. However, Fang You can't do anything about it when it comes to hundreds of years.

Already.

If he could learn the Water Escape Technique again, he might be able to tell what color of spiritual energy is contained in these wines and judge the year from it. But now, he was looking at the wine and sighed. Such an attractive cultural relic was here, but he didn't know it.

Not being able to identify its year and name is really an unbearable blow.

Fang You vaguely remembered that when he was walking around the room just now, he had seen a dozen small wine jars with red light. Maybe he could find something from these small wine jars that were different from the big wine jars.

He glanced up a few times and soon found the dozen or so distinctive red shapes. Fang You quickly swam closer and took a closer look, and found that the density of the red aura inside them was denser than those of those large wine vats.

Much more.

Through the red aura, he saw that the liquid inside was exactly the same as that in the vat. It was all orange and bright original wine. This might be the wine that had not yet been packaged and shipped.

We could only see if there were any clues on the shells of these wine jars. Fang You controlled his escape technique to reveal the shells of several wine jars.

He was immediately attracted by the exquisite shape of the wine jars and the exquisite pictures on them. Some of these wine jars were engraved with dragons and phoenixes, some were with flowers, plants, fish and birds, and various figures.

The jar is painted with various colors, colorful and colorful, setting off the beautiful patterns on the jar, which is exquisite.

Suddenly, Fang You saw several engraved fonts on the altar cover. After looking carefully, he vaguely recognized the ancient seal fonts on it, Shaoxing Huadiao.

This is the legendary Huadiao wine. Fang You's eyes widened in disbelief. He had seen Huadiao wine several times in the game before. Some tasks required him to buy Huadiao wine for alcoholics.

NPC, but in reality, he has never seen it a few times.

Apart from Erguotou, Wuliangye, and Zhijiang Daqu, the wines he often drinks, he has never seen Huadiao among the gifts sent between friends.

Although I have sometimes heard others talk about Huadiao wine, I have always been fascinated by its spirit but never seen its form.

He really didn't expect that he would see Huadiao wine in real life today, and there were so many of them. Fang You was completely shocked.

Suddenly, Fang You, who had only seen NPCs drinking Huadiao wine in games, couldn't help it. Seeing that there was still a lot of rice wine left in the broken vat, he rushed up and emerged from the ground.

.

Suddenly his vision went dark, which made Fang You feel helpless. He stretched out his hands and groped in the darkness. Finally, his fingers came into contact with the presence of water. He took a handful with both hands and put it to his mouth. He hesitated a little.

Although the Lingchuan tribute wine stored in the National Museum for more than 100 years is called a drinkable cultural relic, it does not mean that these Huadiao wines are also drinkable.

Smelling the rich aroma of Huadiao wine in his hand, Fang You, who was also addicted to alcohol, could no longer bear it. As the ancients said, a man cannot go without alcohol for a day.

He suddenly raised his hand and took the fragrant wine in his hand into his mouth. His whole body suddenly trembled. The original wine, which had been stored in underground cellars for countless years, was bone-chilling. He drank it until his stomach was full.

I feel like I'm about to turn into ice.

Just when Fang You felt a little regretful, a warm current suddenly emitted from his stomach, filling his whole body from top to bottom. Fang You felt so comfortable that his whole body let out a moan involuntarily.

"Come on, have another drink." Fang You shouted with a flushed face, then picked up a handful of wine from the broken vat with both hands, raised his head, and poured it into his mouth.

Without the unpalatable spiciness of low-quality liquor, Huadiao liquor exudes a strong sweet aroma in the mouth, and the viscous liquid allows Fang You to enjoy a different taste from liquor.

This is the real wine. Fang You couldn't help but sigh, can the wine he usually drinks be called wine? I'm afraid it's just a bottle of tap water mixed with chili pepper. When the Huadiao wine liquid goes down into the stomach, it's like being in a cold winter.

Being next to the stove makes me feel warm all over my body, but when I drink the white wine, I feel like vomiting.

White wine harms the body, while rice wine nourishes the stomach. Only then did Fang You truly understand Li Bai's cormorant spoon and parrot cup. For a hundred years and thirty-six thousand days, one must pour three hundred cups a day. Cooking sheep and slaughtering cattle is a pleasure.

How does the pride of drinking three hundred cups come from?

He must drink three hundred cups a day. This is only what the rice wine can do to nourish the stomach without harming the body. Otherwise, what awaits Li Bai will be the pain of broken liver, intestines and stomach.

Only with this rich and fragrant Huadiao wine that I still want to drink after drinking it, can I drink three hundred cups without getting bored.

In this extremely cold wine cellar, Fang You didn't feel the slightest bit of coldness. His whole body seemed to be radiating heat, allowing him to stretch out comfortably.

PS: Thank you for the miscanthus in Lengshuikeng and the two bosses of 716253 for the reward... Basically, Salty Pig's anus has been completely exploded. He wants to catch up and explode mine. I'm afraid it is a luxury. Brother's anus is not that good.
