As the name suggests, monkey wine is a kind of wine.
But real monkey wine is really brewed by monkeys.
Monkeys collect high-quality fruits from the mountains and store them as food for the monkeys.
Although monkeys are smart, they cannot protect fruits in boxes like humans do. Therefore, over time, the part of the fruit that is piled up and pressed on the bottom layer will inevitably be squeezed by the upper layer of fruit, causing it to burst.
The cracked fruit will produce pulp. At the same time, because the upper layer of the fruit completely blocks the air, mainly cutting off the oxygen in the air, this will cause the pulp to react with the wild yeast attached to the skin of the general fruit, thus Brewing by chance.
Note that it must be fermentation by chance, not rot!
This opportunity can even be said to be rare in a century, so it is not an exaggeration to call this kind of wild brew a rare product!
Xu Bo'an once heard an old gourmet say at a wine bureau: The real monkey wine is worth a thousand pieces of gold.
Although Xu Bo'an is now worth tens of millions, no one thinks he has too much money!
What's more, one of the characteristics of middle-aged men is that they like to collect rare gadgets. Monkey wine is simply too high-end, hundreds of times rarer than any top-notch red wine or white wine.
Not only Xu Boan was interested in this thing, but the villagers in the backing village were even more happy.
"Oh my god, it's really monkey wine, we are so blessed."
"Who just said that monkeys don't know how to repay kindness? Isn't this what happened? The kindness of a drop of water is repaid by a spring of water!"
"Don't show off your bad culture after attending a private school for a year. I just said it casually."
"Okay, stop making noise and let the monkeys see the joke."
"With these monkey wines, will my migraine be cured?"
"Yes, this monkey wine is very good for the body, especially for various brain problems. It is miraculous. When I was a child, I was bald. Did you know? I was born with a bald head. Later, I got lucky when I went hunting in the mountains. I found a bald head in a cave. Shitouwowo accidentally got a little bit of monkey wine, and after drinking it, his hair grew in three days."
The villagers were chatting lively, and Xu Boan's heart was filled with excitement.
Boy, what a joy.
When people reach middle age, they worry about old waist and hair loss.
Although Xu Bo'an's hairstyle has not yet reached the Mediterranean level, he has obviously felt that his hairline has moved back in recent years.
With this monkey wine, wouldn’t it be possible to be radiant again and have black hair again?
But Xu Bo'an also knew that he couldn't just listen to other people's opinions about this matter. He didn't know it until he tried it himself.
However, these monkey wines were given to the villagers by the monkeys, and Xu Boan was embarrassed to ask for them.
Not only is he thin-skinned, but he is also good-looking.
You must know that he is an otherworldly mountain god in the eyes of the villagers. How could he be so shameless as to ask for things from the villagers!
Xu Boan didn't speak, but the villagers were very sensible.
Li Laosan watched the villagers gather around Houerjiu, pursed his lips, and clapped his hands twice.
"Everyone, be quiet and listen to what I, Li Laosan, have to say."
Kaoshan villages are basically villages composed of a group of relatives, and almost every household has relatives.
Li Laosan is the oldest person among the group of people who came, so the villagers still listen to his words.
The scene became quiet at that time.
"Third Master, please speak, we are listening."
"Uncle San, do you want to know how to share these monkey wines with everyone? Come on, tell me. I'm so greedy that I can't help it anymore."
"That's right, hey, I'm still waiting to drink some snake meat at night. I haven't drank for a long time."
Li Laosan said with a solemn expression: "Maybe people don't like what I, an old man, say, but I hope you won't interrupt me. After I finish speaking, we can raise our hands and make a decision."
"Tell me, Third Master, we are all listening carefully!" Li Qingshi nodded in agreement.
"Young and old men from the mountain village! This wine was brought by the monkeys to thank us for giving them food. This is true. However, I think the person they really want to thank is actually Grandpa Mountain God!"
As he spoke, Li Laosan pointed to the mountain temple halfway up the mountain and continued: "Grandpa Mountain God asked us to give food and drink to the monkeys, and the food and drink were originally given to us by Grandpa Mountain God, so , I suggest that we supply this monkey wine to Grandpa Mountain God!"
After Li Laosan finished speaking, Li Qingshi was the first to agree: "I agree! Dear uncles, aunts, and aunts, I think what the third master said is very right. If it weren't for the mountain god grandpa, we would be short of food and drink, and we wouldn't be able to survive for a few days. Not necessarily!”
"Okay, little Shitou, don't make the big guys so sad, let's just show our hands and vote." Li Laosan said.
As soon as he finished speaking, the villagers all raised their hands.
"I agree! Little Shitou is right. If Grandpa Mountain God hadn't given me food and drink, I wouldn't have wanted to live. It's too uncomfortable to be hungry."
"I agree."
…
Soon, all the villagers knelt on the ground, bowed in the direction of the mountain temple, and prayed in unison.
"Grandpa Mountain God, you have been so kind to us and we have nothing to repay. Please accept the monkey wine sent by these monkeys."
Seeing the simple and kind actions of the villagers, Xu Bo'an was quite pleased.
After all, I didn’t pay in vain. When getting along with others, the most fearful thing is paying by mistake.
Especially when people reach middle age, they pay more attention to a person's inner qualities.
If these villagers are all a bunch of white-eyed wolves, Xu Boan will naturally not want to help them anymore.
As you grow older, you may look away from some things, become relieved, and no longer care.
But when it comes to getting along with others, we always need to be sincere.
As the saying goes, a person's heart can be exchanged for a person's heart, and eight taels can be exchanged for half a catty. If you put two good things aside, everything will be prosperous for your family!
Only if both of us are conscientious people can we maintain a good relationship with each other.
People are afraid of being sad, and trees are afraid of hurting their roots!
Fortunately, my luck is pretty good. These little guys did not disappoint me!
"I heard everything you said. Since you are so thoughtful, I will accept this monkey wine." Xu Bo'an said slowly.
"It should be so!" the villagers responded happily.
Xu Boan then used the knowledge he just found on the Internet to popularize: "In addition, although this monkey wine does have many benefits, monkey wine is naturally aged fruit pulp, and it is very likely to contain toxic substances. . Your current abilities are not able to bear these risks. I can give you some really good wine for you to try."
Xu Bo'an was naturally thinking of the pure grain wine produced by high technology in today's society. This is a completely different concept from the monkey wine that relies entirely on playing with probability.
After hearing what Grandpa Mountain God said, the villagers reacted strongly.
"Grandpa Mountain God is so polite. We originally planned to offer this monkey wine to you, so how can we ask for it from you again?"
"Yes, Grandpa Mountain God, you have helped us so much. We finally have the opportunity to repay you. How dare we ask for your gifts again."
"That's right, Grandpa Mountain God, and since monkey wine is so dangerous, we definitely can't control it. You can be regarded as helping us to eliminate the disaster."
"Yes, and we believe that if we encounter any disaster, Grandpa Mountain God will definitely protect us."
The villagers had different opinions, but their meanings were exactly the same.
Xu Bo'an added: "Let's talk about monkey wine first. Li Qingshi, listen carefully. You have to divide the monkey wine into two parts. You are responsible for keeping one part. If you really need to treat migraines and hair loss, remember You should drink less and record the changes in your body to avoid unexpected events."
Firstly, Xu Bo'an considered providing emergency services to the villagers, and secondly, he was not sure whether there was any toxin in something like monkey wine that could be eaten or drank into the stomach.
Besides, if this thing is in the bonsai world, will there be any unexpected changes when it is taken out and placed in the real world?
All things considered, Xu Bo'an had to think more carefully and make a backup in the bonsai world for comparison in the future.
After hearing Xu Boan's words, the villagers began to plead again.
"No way, Grandpa Mountain God, this makes our conscience uneasy!"
"Grandpa Mountain God, this monkey's alcohol is extremely pure. We can't drink much. At most, nine of you and one of us will be enough."
The villagers offered their suggestions and suggestions.
Xu Bo'an sighed, helplessly aggravated his tone, and said: "Okay, don't talk anymore, this matter is settled. Li Qingshi, help me divide this monkey wine into two parts." .”
Li Qingshi didn't dare to say anything more when he saw Xu Boan's determination.
Now he found another wooden barrel and split the monkey wine into two parts.
Xu Bo'an casually took out one of the wooden barrels. As soon as the wooden barrel came out of the bonsai, it gradually grew larger in Xu Bo'an's longing thoughts. Soon, it turned into a wooden barrel as big as a large pure water bucket.
Fully half a barrel of monkey wine exuded a refreshing fruity aroma in the barrel.
Good guy, the taste alone makes people intoxicated, as if they were immersed in an orchard of dozens of ripe fruits.
Xu Boan buried his head and looked at it. The transparent main color of Hou'er wine showed a light reddish purple, as if a few drops of dry red wine had been added to the white wine.
I carefully took out a spoonful with the small coffee spoon I used to drink coffee in the office and tasted it. It was soft and refreshing in the mouth, and a refreshing sweetness rushed straight into my throat. The smell of alcohol mixed with it instantly made my mouth feel wet!
After Monkey drank the wine, a warmth spread through his internal organs, and he felt indescribably comfortable, as if a clear spring was pouring on the arid desert.
It even seems to have a very obvious effect of nourishing yin and nourishing the kidneys.
Excellent! Really excellent!
The refreshing point of Monkey Wine is not the alcohol content, but the mysterious feeling that makes the whole body feel comfortable from the inside out.
Xu Bo'an smacked his lips and looked at the monkey wine in the barrel with some unfinished content, marveling at it.
He went to the cabinet under the bookshelf in his office and took out a bottle of Wuliangye. He also took out a small bottle cap and poured half the cap. Slowly put it into the bonsai.
"These are some drinks from my collection. You can also taste them."
The villagers came over happily.
"Grandpa Mountain God's things must be good things."
"I can already smell the aroma of wine. I have been drinking wine for most of my life, but I have never encountered such a mellow wine."
"Oh my God, it's so clear... This is really wine, not water."
"What do you know? You can't smell such an obvious aroma of wine?"
"Just have a taste. Come, let's all have a taste. Thanks to the mercy of the mountain god and the kindness of the monkeys, let's have a drink today!"
Seeing that the villagers were in high spirits, Xu Boan didn't mention releasing the wolves held in the ashtray for the time being.
So as not to spoil everyone's fun.
Soon, the villagers were drinking, and some of the drunken people even invited the monkeys to drink together.
Seeing how interested the villagers were, Xu Boan glanced around and saw a piece of king of kings placed on the fruit plate on the coffee table in the reception area of the office.
Immediately, he took out the King of Kings ham sausage, carefully scraped out a thin strip with a toothpick, then picked it up and put it into the bonsai.
"These are some cooked foods that can be eaten directly. You can try them." This can be regarded as having fun with the people.
The villagers had already developed a kind of trust in Xu Boan. When they heard Xu Boan's words, some villagers came up and took a bite.
"Wow, it smells really good! It's definitely good for drinking."
"It's so happy to follow the mountain god grandpa, just like dreaming"
…
Amid the praise, Xu Boan's bad mood improved a lot due to the change in work.
Just when Xu Bo'an was about to take another sip of monkey wine, suddenly, there was a rapid knock on the door.
"Mr. Xu! Mr. Xu, are you okay? Mr. Xu, please don't let your mind wander!"
