City's Best Divine Doctor-Chapter 1403 - 1402: Inferior Red Wine
Song Ying discovered that upon arriving here and getting ready to take a bath, everything was new, like the bathrobe and towels. Even the shampoo and body wash were all brand new and produced in France, and much better than the ones she brought over.
No wonder Ye Qiu said she only needed to bring a few sets of clothes for the move.
Besides, Paris is the fashion capital of the world. She can buy new clothes in Paris without needing to bring so many with her.
Now, Song Ying started to regret that Ye Qiu hadn’t made this clear to her.
Ye Qiu went to take a shower and, after finishing, went downstairs to wait for Zhou Wenting and Song Ying to come down.
This time was almost dinner time.
After the two women finished their baths and came down, indeed, much of the fatigue from the flight had dissipated.
When they sat down for dinner, it was only Ye Qiu, Louise, Zhou Wenting, and Song Ying dining together — even Housekeeper Eugene didn’t join them.
Song Ying almost couldn’t believe it — there was really a division of social classes.
After all, back home, the nanny would dine together with them, but here, meals were completely segregated.
"Young Master Ye, we’ve asked the chef to prepare a sumptuous Chinese meal. Shall we bring it in now?"
"Bring it in."
Ye Qiu knew that it was that couple who prepared the meal. Sure enough, dish after dish was brought in, and Zhou Wenting and Louise could smell the enticing aroma.
On the plane, although there was a buffet, it was mainly Western food. Now being able to enjoy Chinese food was quite a treat.
While eating, Ye Qiu asked Housekeeper Eugene to bring over two bottles of red wine.
"Viscount Red Wine?"
Song Ying asked.
"What did you think?"
There are a few hundred cases in the underground wine cellar, and these are not for sale. Now they are likely even more expensive.
Of course, when a new batch is released next year, these will become even more valuable.
Last time, Ye Qiu only brought one box back due to customs taxes, so he didn’t bring much.
As Housekeeper Eugene instructed the maid to bring two bottles of wine, after opening them and pouring into glasses, Song Ying sniffed and realized it was indeed the wine Ye Qiu had given her before.
"So how much is left now?"
"Not really sure, you’ll know when you go down to the wine cellar later,"
Ye Qiu said.
Tasting the wine and enjoying the delicious Chinese meal, living in the castle, it was initially something Song Ying wasn’t quite accustomed to.
Europe is full of castles, and she had seen many in England before, but this was her first time staying in one like this.
After Ye Qiu and the three women had their fill, the maids and servants came to clean up. As Ye Qiu prepared to take a stroll outside, the three women followed along.
Heading towards the seashore, Song Ying asked, "Is that the English Channel over there?"
"Yes, it’s the English Channel."
If so, isn’t it possible to see England from here?
However, as Ye Qiu and Song Ying arrived, Song Ying looked into the distance and saw only the endless sea, with occasional lights from distant vessels.
Hearing the sound of waves crashing from afar, Song Ying became more excited.
If Zhou Wenting and Louise weren’t watching, she would have shouted out loud.
While Song Ying was looking around, Ye Qiu and Louise walked further away.
The two were very close together, and eventually, Ye Qiu directly wrapped his arm around Louise’s waist, smelling her hair fragrance. Initially, she knew Louise approached him with a purpose.
So, back then, Ye Qiu would resist her.
But now it’s different; he could see that Louise’s heart was with him.
"Qiu, how long do you plan to stay here this time?"
"I don’t know yet; tomorrow, I’ll first check on the perfumes."
The main purpose of this visit is to check on the perfumes and then take a look at the fashion company.
Of course, this trip is also a bit of a getaway.
Zhou Wenting and Song Ying followed behind; they didn’t know what Ye Qiu and Louise were discussing, but seeing them so close indicated their complicated relationship.
For some reason, Zhou Wenting felt a pang of jealousy, and Song Ying felt a bit uncomfortable as well.
She thought Ye Qiu only had Liu Lingxiu as his girlfriend at Jin University, not expecting that there would be such a blonde beauty here in distant France.
So Song Ying couldn’t believe that Ye Qiu would only like one person.
As the sky darkened, Ye Qiu prepared to return to the Eastern Castle.
On their way back, Song Ying wanted to see the underground wine cellar. As she entered the winery with Song Ying, she was greeted by the rich aroma of wine.
Upon reaching the cellar, seeing the barrels and rows of red wine, Song Ying was even more shocked and asked, "Are all these Viscount Red Wine?"
"Yes, although some might be of lesser quality."
Those wines made from grapes that didn’t meet the standard were produced separately, and even though the brewing recipe was the same, the quality certainly differed.
However, Ye Qiu hadn’t tasted these wines, so he didn’t know how they were.
Substandard? 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎
Song Ying didn’t understand.
Ye Qiu grabbed two bottles to taste later.
If the quality was slightly lower, they couldn’t be sold, as it would affect the brand reputation of the Viscount Red Wine. However, if they were great, that would be another story.
On their way out of the cellar, Song Ying realized Ye Qiu was indeed very wealthy, with so much Viscount Red Wine stored there. How much money was that!
Furthermore, it seemed impossible to buy them even with money in the domestic market.
Unexpectedly, there was such a vast amount here now.
Back in their room upstairs in the castle, Ye Qiu asked Song Ying to take a bottle with her. He took one to his room, and a maid brought a wine glass.
And a bottle opener, but Ye Qiu didn’t need it; holding the cork, the maid couldn’t even tell how he did it, as the cork was opened, releasing a more fragrant aroma than the previous batch.
Wasn’t this supposed to be substandard?
Could his senses be mistaken?
Ye Qiu thought it was unlikely, as he poured a glass and sampled it, finding it quite excellent, barely different from the first batch of genuine products.
If that’s indeed the case, it proves that as long as the same brewing recipe is followed, the taste of wine made from those grapes wouldn’t differ much.
If so, wouldn’t he be in for a fortune?
"Miss Zhou, Miss Louise, Ye Qiu said this is substandard wine. Why don’t you taste it and see how it is?"
Song Ying asked a maid to open the bottle, and after pouring a glass each, they found it even tastier than the wine they had with dinner!
This couldn’t possibly be substandard wine!
