Because this was the first time he met a lady from a noble family, Liu Xinyue couldn't help but look at Wen Tai Rou twice. He didn't expect that he would catch sight of her, so he immediately pulled Wen Tai Rou behind him, and glared at him at the same time.
Liu Xinyue was startled at first, but then reacted, and his expression immediately changed. This Mrs. Wen couldn't possibly think that he was eyeing Wen TaiRou, right?
Please, they're all women, okay?
Furthermore, even if he was a man, he wouldn't like a type like Wen TaiRou because it was too gentle, and it didn't fit her style.
"I didn't expect Divine Doctor Huo to actually know who durian is. This one is truly impressed."
The shopkeeper thought that Liu Xinyue being able to tell him the raw materials for the first two dishes was already pretty good, but because the third dish was made using a durian that didn't exist in the Blue Moon Kingdom, he thought Liu Xinyue was definitely not able to say it.
Only, he did not expect that Liu Xinyue would surprise him once again, and at the same time, refresh his opponent's ability in his heart.
"As expected of someone the boss has his eyes on."
At this moment, the shopkeeper was truly impressed by the shopkeeper. He could not believe that a prophet could have such high standards!
Actually, the analysis on the ingredients for these three dishes was not a coincidence. Furthermore, it was not because he wanted to know how the three dishes were made, but because the shopkeeper had purposely done so.
The purpose of this study was to examine the medical knowledge of these doctors present.
That's right. Actually, the medical appraisal meeting that he had told these nobles and officials about before the banquet had already begun the moment the banquet had begun.
And the three dishes just now were the first round of the test.
In fact, this medical appraisal was also something his boss had suddenly thought of. As for the arrangement for the three dishes, it was naturally his idea as well.
The shopkeeper had thought that even if not all doctors could identify these three dishes, at least half of the doctors would be able to do so.
But what he did not expect was that there were only a few doctors who stood up to analyze the ingredients, and Liu Xinyue was the only one who analyzed the entire set of three dishes, which was completely correct.
"However, this is only the first round of the trial. There will be a few more trials. When these doctors come to understand the situation, there shouldn't be just these few people. They will be fighting over them."
The shopkeeper couldn't help thinking about it.
Speaking of which, it could also be said that Liu Xinyue was just too lucky, and accidentally passed the first round of the test, and it was even with perfect results. As for the two from Huo Ran and Mountain Sect, they were also passable, but Dr. He Tan's personality was a little too impatient.
"I wonder if Divine Doctor Huo could tell me where you found out about this durian?"
Because the Blue Moon Kingdom didn't have a durian, the shopkeeper really wanted to know where Liu Xinyue found out about this durian.
"Actually, this was when I was travelling outside. I happened to see an old man eating a durian. Because this thing smelled bad, the other person ate very well. So, I went over to ask out of curiosity."
Liu Xinyue couldn't possibly say that he had eaten it in the modern world, right? Thus, he casually made up a reason.
"It was also this old man who told me that this stinky yet fragrant thing is called durian."
"So that's the case. In that case, where might this old man be right now?" Hearing this, the shopkeeper asked casually.
"I only met this old man when I was travelling. After asking him about it, I left. I don't know where he is right now."
Liu Xinyue shook his head and said.
In fact, the shopkeeper didn't really want to know where the old man was, but just asked casually. Hearing Liu Xinyue's reply, he didn't say anything.
"Everyone, since everyone has already tasted the three dishes, let's begin!"
The first round of the exam was already about to end. The shopkeeper was going to lead everyone to the second round of the exam.
As soon as the shopkeeper finished speaking, the main doors of the banquet hall opened. One by one, the maidservants carrying trays in their hands quickly entered the hall and began to place several dishes onto the tables.
Liu Xinyue looked at the noodles on the table, and realized that the dishes that were placed on the table this time were finally the usual dishes that everyone had seen before.
Furthermore, the dishes that came up later could be said to have a plentiful variety. There were chicken, duck, fish, vegetables and fruits that matched well to each other.
"Everyone, let us raise our glasses and toast!"
The shopkeeper raised his wine cup and said loudly.
Because she drank the wine in front of Liu Xinyue earlier, a servant came up to pour the wine. After that, she raised the wine and drank the wine along with the rest.
"Shopkeeper, what wine is this?" It's even better than Fragrant Sky Tower's osmanthus wine! "
After Chong De finished his wine, he asked the servant girl to continue filling his cup, and then drank three cups in a row before he stopped and asked loudly.
"This is a wine our wan chun tang brewed. Its name is Hundred Steps Intoxicated."
The shopkeeper smiled at Chong De and answered.
"Hundred stages drunk?" Hearing that, Chong De became interested, and could not help but ask, "Why did you give me that name?"
"That's because those who drank hundreds of steps like us were basically drunk to the point that they were unconscious."
The shopkeeper explained with a smile.
He was not bragging, but it was true. This wine was not originally named that, and was later called the Hundred Steps Drunken Wine because of this.
"Hahaha, is that true? You can get drunk within a hundred steps? "
Chong De did not think that he would receive such an answer, and immediately laughed out loud. One must know that he was a person who was reputed to not get drunk even after drinking a thousand cups, he did not believe that these hundred steps of drunkenness would cause him to fall drunk within a hundred steps!
"If Old Master Chong doesn't believe me, you can give it a try. Don't worry about the wine, you definitely won't have enough!"
After the shopkeeper heard this, he smiled and said.
In the past, there were people like Chong De, but in the end, not only did they not walk a hundred steps, there were even people who did not even walk ten steps and became drunk.
"Haha, alright. I'd like to see how I get drunk."
Hearing that, Chong De drank all the wine beside him in one gulp, and continued to get more wine from the servant girl.
"Everyone, it's exactly as the saying goes, 'good food and good wine should be paired with beautiful beauties'."
The shopkeeper saw that Chong De did not speak anymore, and turned to the rest and said: "Come, play!"
"I was wondering why it seems like there's something missing, so it's a beauty!"
"Haha, shopkeeper, what beauty did you prepare for us?"
When the men heard that there were even beauties who could admire it, they immediately became interested. All of them stared at the door, curious to see what kind of beauty it was.
However, for those madams and misses, they didn't really want to see a beauty and were even afraid that their husbands would be captivated by these little imps.
