Compared to Bai Yunming, this Qu Hong was obviously much smarter. Moreover, he was more familiar with his own talent and understood the significance of his talent to him.
Therefore, his goal in entering the Cheng family was to obtain the support of the Cheng family's resources. However, Bai Yunming didn't understand his own talent at all.
If Bai Yunming could be like Qu Hong, then the delicacies he made would definitely not be inferior to Qu Hong's wine.
Seeing the current Qu Hong, Xinhai and the others also had more expectations for Bai Yunming.
They now truly believed what Cheng Yu said. If Qu Hong was able to brew better wine than now, then it was very likely that Bai Yunming would be able to make such delicacies in the future.
This time, they were even more looking forward to the future of the Cheng family. If Qu Hong was able to brew better wine, then their future life would be too tasty.
In addition, I hope that you can agree to a request of mine Cheng Yu continued.
Patriarch, please speak!
At present, you are the only person in the Cheng family who can brew spirit wine, so I hope that you can train some apprentices to brew spirit wine Cheng Yu said.
"This … Patriarch, you also said that if I don't have this talent, it is almost impossible to brew a spirit wine like mine. Patriarch, aren't you making things difficult for me?" Qu Hong couldn't help but feel a bit awkward when he heard this.
You don't have to worry about that. As long as you agree to my condition, do you agree? Cheng Yu asked.
If I don't agree, can I still stay in the Cheng family? Qu Hong asked.
"Of course. Our Cheng Family will never neglect any talent. However, my Cheng family's demand for spirit wine is very large. I know that you can only brew this jar of wine in three days.
At that time, I'm afraid that you will be too busy just to meet the needs of my Cheng family, let alone researching better wine.
But if you are willing to train a few apprentices, then wouldn't it be much easier for you? You can completely research new wine by yourself, and your apprentices can help you brew spirit wine for the Cheng family Cheng Yu said with a smile.
This... Qu Hong hesitated.
This was his secret technique. If word of this got out, wouldn't everyone be able to brew spirit wine?
In this way, his position in the Cheng family was naturally not as important.
However, if he didn't agree to Cheng Yu's request, he was afraid that Cheng Yu would make him brew spiritual wine every day and would never give him the chance to research new wine.
Furthermore, even though Cheng Yu had said that he would not have any thoughts about him, he was definitely unhappy in his heart. Perhaps, he might even harbor a grudge. In the future, his days in the Cheng Family would not be as good as he had imagined.
"Alright! I promised the Patriarch that I could nurture some winemaking apprentices. It's just that it's not that easy to brew spiritual wine. If they don't have the talent, I can't guarantee that they can brew spiritual wine. So when the time comes, I hope Patriarch won't blame me! "Qu Hong finally chose to compromise.
After all, Cheng Yu was the Cheng Family Patriarch. Now that the Cheng Family Patriarch had asked him for help for the first time, he was rejected. He was afraid that in the future, he would make things difficult for the Cheng Family.
In any case, this wasn't something that anyone could learn just because they wanted to. Hence, even if he taught this to an acolyte, it wouldn't necessarily threaten his position.
This was the same as cultivating a cultivation technique. The same cultivation technique had different achievements for different people.
In the same sect, they all had the same cultivation technique. However, some people could constantly improve their realm, while some people were unable to break through. In the end, it was still a matter of talent.
The same logic was applied to brewing spiritual wine. If one didn't have talent, even if one knew the method, they wouldn't be able to brew it.
Moreover, he had spent a lot of effort to brew the current spiritual wine, let alone these people without talent.
Thinking of this, he felt a lot more at ease. Moreover, this was equivalent to giving face to the Patriarch. Presumably, the Patriarch wouldn't hate him in his heart
Moreover, he could also get the support of the Cheng Family to research new wine. In this way, the Patriarch wouldn't find an excuse to make things difficult for him
"I naturally know this. I'm very happy that you can agree to it. As long as your contribution to the Cheng Family is big enough, I believe that I can satisfy any wine brewing ingredients you want Cheng Yu said with a smile.
Thank you, Patriarch. I will definitely nurture a new winemaker for the Cheng Family Qu Hong cupped his fist and said.
He was a smart person. The Patriarch's words were obviously reminding him that if he wanted to get better wine brewing ingredients, he had to nurture talents for the Cheng Family.
If he couldn't nurture talents, his contribution to the Cheng Family would be very limited.
It had to be said that Cheng Yu was also very smart. However, he had no choice but to agree to Cheng Yu's request.
Because these years, he had worked too hard to collect these wine brewing ingredients. Sometimes, in order to brew wine, he even exchanged all his resources for wine brewing ingredients.
This kind of life was very difficult. When he knew that the Cheng Family had issued a mission outside the clan in the secular world, he found a good way to get the ingredients he wanted.
However, this way of obtaining wine brewing ingredients was obviously too slow. After all, he had spent too much time on the mission. He didn't have any more time to research new wine.
Moreover, although he could obtain some wine brewing ingredients through the mission, the resources needed to brew this spirit wine were also a lot.
Sometimes, after doing the mission for half a year, it wasn't even enough for him to brew a few spirit wine.
This time, he participated in the Cheng Family's evaluation meeting to join in the fun. The Cheng Family was big and rich. Not only did he hear from others, but he also saw the rewards that the Cheng Family gave to those who joined the Cheng Family during the evaluation meeting. It could be seen that the Cheng Family was indeed rich.
At this moment, he had the idea to join the Cheng Family. If he could get the support of the Cheng Family, then he wouldn't have to work so hard to find wine brewing ingredients.
However, it wasn't that easy to join the Cheng Family. Especially in the second challenge stage, he didn't go because he didn't even have the ingredients to brew wine. How could he spend 10 high-grade spirit stones to challenge?
More importantly, he knew that his strength wasn't enough. Even if he challenged, he would definitely not succeed.
So, when he heard Elder Han announce that the third stage was to look for special talents, he wanted to give it a try. However, he knew that his talent was too different, too small. Many people didn't take it seriously. It couldn't be compared to the talent in alchemy or refining.
It was just that at that time, someone had asked if his ability to drink could be considered a talent. Elder Han had said that if he could brew wine that could increase his cultivation, then it could be considered a talent. That was why he had been so excited and hurriedly told Elder Han about his talent.
