impure

Chapter 111

Yue Renge found a half-used baijiu from behind the bar, and happily waved it in front of Li Mu, like a kitten showing off to his companions.He took off his coat, and there was a light blue sweater inside, which made him even more elegant and refined.Li Mu had never seen Yue Renge bartending - he knew that the other party was a senior bartender who had also won awards in competitions, but it was the first time to witness Yue Renge's performance.

A Fen-flavored Fenjiu and a gin, this is the source of the charm of Jasmine.Yue Renge stood in front of the console, with a relaxed and elegant posture. The wine measurer seemed to have a soul in his hand, his wrist shook slightly, and the wine splashed. This pair of fine wines, which were produced tens of millions of miles away, met at this moment.

I wonder what Yue Renge or Liang Chuan were thinking when designing this wine?Cocktails with double base wine are rare, let alone such a large span.Li Mu remembered the question he once asked when he was in Burgundy: how to promote baijiu, or the classic national wine of China, to the public?

Yue Renge is doing it.

And it's far better than he imagined.

There is no fresh jasmine at this time, but fortunately there are still dried jasmine flowers.After soaking, there is already a faint floral aroma in the wine.Yue Renge pushed the wine glass to Li Mu, inviting him to taste it, "It might be better if it's summer."

"No." Li Mu took the wine glass and looked down for a while, "It's already very good now."

Fen-flavored baijiu has a long aftertaste, which well neutralizes the tonality of the finished product and adds a lot of flavor.The floral aroma of jasmine and the floral and fruity aroma of white wine are intertwined. After careful tasting, it is like the front and rear notes of perfume, with distinct layers and a sense of freshness.

"How is it?" Yue Renge watched Li Mu's reaction expectantly.Li Mu took another sip, "It's delicious. You also know that I'm not very good at drinking. After this drink, I won't have to work today."

Yue Renge laughed, "Yeah, you're also a different kind! You can't drink, but you want to be a bartender. Do you think you're weird?"

This is not surprising, it is inevitable.

Li Mu's words came to his lips, but he suppressed them and only looked at Yue Renge seriously.Yue Renge had laughed enough, felt the other party's eyes were hot, and couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed, so he waved his hand, "Forget it, let's seal ten cans of jasmine first. This is the signboard of Thyme. After sealing it, I'll ask if there is anyone else If you want, let everyone taste it first, and if it feels good, we will mass-produce it.”

Li Mu nodded and agreed.

Yue Renge picked up Li Mu's wine glass and took a sip, "Well, the effect of dried flowers is indeed a bit worse, but it's always better than the commercial pre-mixed wine outside."

Li Mu looked at the two overlapping lip prints on the cup and nodded, "Of course, everyone will like it."

As the saying goes, everything is difficult at the beginning, difficult in the middle, and difficult in the end.Molly Tini was adjusted, but it never expected that the car overturned during packaging.No matter how professional Li Mu was, this was the first time he had operated this machine. The two of them wasted two or three cans, tens of milliliters of wine, before they finally managed to seal a small can of wine.

Yue Renge carefully held the tin wine in the palm of his hand, as if he was holding a treasure, his eyes almost overflowed with joy. "The first drink!" He excitedly held the small can in front of Li Mu, as if he was afraid that Li Mu wouldn't see it, "Look!"

Li Mu took a serious look at it seriously, "Well, the packaging is very good, it's just like a master."

Yue Renge turned around and found the side waist seal of the bar that he had prepared before, and carefully pasted it along the edge of the can.Two slender fingers pinched the can, and finally held it in the palm of the hand, until it reached the tip of Li Mu's nose.

"Hold it! Hold it for me!" Yue Renge said.

Li Mu didn't know why, seeing Yue Renge took out his phone and took a picture.I don't know how the effect will be. Li Mu wants to go over to have a look, but he is a little afraid.

Yue Renge put the phone in front of him.

Really well shot.

The focus was on the small jar of wine, which was safely placed in Li Mu's palm.Together with Li Mu's black sweater, it became the background of the wine, and the small plain white and copper-yellow cans instantly became dignified and elegant against the pure black background.

I have to say that the aesthetics of Yue Renge is still very good.

"I'll send it to Moments." Yue Renge took the phone back, "I'll ask if anyone is willing to try it."

Li Mu smiled and put the canned food on the table, and continued to help Yue Renge seal other canned food.

With the first successful case, the subsequent operation will be much faster.Yue Renge made a total of two wines, one is jasmine and the other is whiskey sour.Not too much, counting the small part that was wasted in previous attempts, finally sealed eight small cans.Even if no one wants it, you can consume it yourself.

Even so, Li Mu couldn't help asking Yue Renge, "Does anyone want it?"

Yue Renge put down the phone, smiled at him and shook his head, "At this time, everyone is probably still sleeping."

That is nobody cares.Also normal.Although the sun outside the window was good, it was not as good as usual at the moment.In such an environment, who has the thought to drink?

Maybe he was too optimistic, Li Mu scratched his head, thinking.The market of pre-mixed cocktails has been occupied by major well-known manufacturers. They are reckless outsiders, wondering if they can get a piece of the action?

Perhaps Yue Renge was right, after all his experience was so much richer than his own.The complexity of the market is far beyond one's imagination. People have countless innovations and ideas every day, but there are only a few that can really be realized.

Is it people's lack of mobility?No, it is not.

Those fleeting ideas failed silently before they saw them.

Feeling heavy, Li Mu lowered his head and neatly stacked the cans that had just been sealed.It could be seen that Li Mu's mood became heavy, Yue Renge put down the phone, and went around to him, Li Mu raised his head, and looked straight into Yue Renge's smiling eyes.

"What's the matter? Are you so unhappy?"

"...No." Li Mu smiled, "Is there no one yet?"

It turned out to be for this matter.Yue Renge smiled, stretched out his hand, wanted to pat Li Mu's head, changed direction halfway, and finally landed on Li Mu's shoulder, "We have succeeded."

Li Mu raised his head and looked at the other party with some puzzlement.

Yue Renge smiled and retracted his hand, "You see, this machine was also useless, and these things would be thrown away. It is your persistence that makes their life and value continue. Compared with before, we have made more A little change, isn't that a success?"

Li Mu smiled reluctantly.

He originally thought that with Yue Renge's influence and appeal, this premixed cocktail would definitely be sought after and liked by others.As a result, it was so deserted.

As if he knew what Li Mu was thinking, Yue Renge said, "Basically, I haven't added any customers to my WeChat. They are all bar owners, business partners, or former classmates—so the reaction will be smaller. Just now I chatted with a few friends privately, but none of them replied, at this point in time, everyone is resting, so don't worry too much."

Li Mu nodded, "I was too anxious..."

"It doesn't matter," Yue Renge helped Li Mu clean up the bar, and said, "Since we have already started doing this, we are not regressing."

"The bar sells pre-mixed cocktails in cans. As far as I know, there is no such precedent before. So we are doing something that has never been done before." Yue Renge said, "Before we rush to find a large number of customers, We have to polish our products first.”

He picked up a can and weighed it, "How long can a cocktail in this form last? Will it affect the flavor of the wine? How should we adjust it? It's difficult for us to fully grasp it by ourselves. So for this kind of thing, it’s normal to spend a little more time in front. We’re already very fast.”

Li Muyou was comforted, and he nodded, "Then pack so much today. We will adjust the plan after we find someone who is willing to taste it. I hope it won't be too long."

"Of course it won't be too long." Yue Renge said with a smile, "All these guys are alcoholics. If they can have free drinks, will they still miss this opportunity?"

Li Mu looked at him suspiciously.

The phone rang suddenly, startling both of them.Yue Renge looked at the caller ID and shook Li Mu, "Say Cao Cao, Cao Cao is here, look, someone will come looking for him right away."

As soon as the call was connected, the other party immediately said, "Who is the person holding the can in the photo?!"

Yue Renge played it, and this straightforward question stunned the two of them.Afterwards, Li Mu's face quickly turned red at a speed visible to the naked eye, and Yue Renge smiled and said, "Old Zhao, there is something wrong with your focus. How about it, our Dionysian new product, pre-mixed cocktail, now has two You can choose between jasmine and whiskey sour, which one do you want?"

Zhao Shengyan's voice sounded full of anger, "Okay! Boss Yue! I have found a new love in such a short time! Thanks to my Xiao Li's deep love for you, I called him a few days ago, and he still can't forget you !"

As soon as Li Mu heard Zhao Shengyan mention him, he wished he could jump over the radio waves and cover Zhao Shengyan's mouth.It's a pity that Yue Renge smiled and put his hand to his lips, telling Li Mu to keep quiet.Li Mu blushed with shame, and simply ran to the corner to draw circles.

Yue Renge stopped molesting the children, turned off the speaker, and returned to the topic in a few words.

"Let's talk about business. I don't know how long this flu will last. Is it possible that you are really waiting at home all day to resume business? I don't believe that your house really has a golden mountain. I just bought this canned pre-mixed cocktail. If you are free, help me find out, maybe we can recover some losses. No matter what, we still have employees under us, and we can't just starve to death like this."

Zhao Shengyan said: "I'm also telling you something serious, how many cans do you have on hand now? What? How dare you sell them when you only have eight? Send them here first, you kid will come up with some new tricks. I'll try it, maybe you can return it Kind of a surprise."

Yue Renge looked at Li Mu who was hiding aside, and said with a smile, "There will definitely be surprises, and it's not just this one."
