Chapter 2087 Twin Gold Awards!
Translator: Henyee TranslationsEditor: Henyee Translations
It was first Titan Liquor, and then Maotai Liquor followed. The appearance of these two legendary kinds of liquor had pushed this liquor-tasting event to its climax, and rendered all the other liquor types mere
supporting roles.
After reviewing all 60 groups, all the scores were given.
What made everyone curious was one question: whom would the Wine and Liquor Association give the gold award to. Both Titan Liquor and Maotai Liquor got full marks.
The five judges on stage had a discussion with the other five reserved judges before tasting both liquors again. They reached a final agreement.
Fergus walked onto the platform again, and gestured for everyone to quiet down.
The crowd quickly quieted down, and everyone was looking at the highly respected president. He was going to declare the winners of this year’s liquor-tasting event.
Fergus looked at the crowd, and said in a booming voice, “This year’s liquor-tasting event has given us a huge surprise. There are many great liquor types this year. The brewers’ hard work and breakthroughs in the
past year were all beyond our expectations, but the excellent liquor also made our judging jobs much more complicated and harder.
“For example, the Titan Liquor which has aged for 30 years in the cellar and Maotai which has bowled everyone over on its debut. Asking us to choose which of them to award with the gold award is equivalent to asking
us to choose who is more important between our mothers and our wives. It’s making things impossible for all the judges.”
Everyone smiled. The president was still as funny and humorous as ever.
“So, after our serious consideration, we have come to a unanimous decision. This year’s liquor-tasting event will make an exception by adding another gold award. Titan Liquor and Maotai will both receive the gold
award!” Fergus said in an even louder voice.
It was silent, the crowd erupted into an uproar all of a sudden.
Double gold award!
This had never happened at the liquor-tasting event before!
The taverns’ owners looked at Mag and Eiffie enviously. This was equivalent to taking down a guarantee for the next year’s sales.
Titan Tavern would return to its former glory, while the newly opened Saipan Tavern would become one of the most popular taverns in Rodu very soon.
“Congratulations to both Titan Tavern and Saipan Tavern. Could the owners please come up to the stage to receive your gold award’s trophy,” the emcee announced.
“Marvelous! They actually added another gold award!” Eiffie also jumped up in joy and surprise.
“They are really quite flexible.” Mag also nodded with a smile.
Mag and Eiffie got up and walked onto the stage.
The two 30-year-olds seemed to be in their prime, making everyone in the audience envy them.
Fergus and Kurt each held a big golden wine glass which had the words “The Wine and Liquor Association’s Gold Award” engraved on it.
urt gave one trophy to Eiffie, and encouraged, “I hope you can carry on Marcus’ work and pass on the legacy of Titan Liquor.”
Eiffie accepted the trophy with both her hands and gravely nodded. “Thank you. I will work hard.”
“Young and promising. You will be a force to be reckoned with in the future.” Fergus passed the other trophy to Mag and chuckled. “I have taken next year’s trophy to settle this emergency. I hope to see you bring back
an even better Maotai next year.”
Laughter broke out in the crowd instantly.
“No, thanks. Maotai is already the best.” Mag shook his head.
Everyone stared at Mag with shock. Were the youngsters so arrogant nowadays?
Fergus was also looking at Mag.
“However, I’m still coming next year. I will be bringing other liquor. You may have to prepare another trophy as well then.” Mag raised the trophy in his hand and looked at it against the light. “I guess my girls at home
will love it.”
Fergus and the audience laughed.
“Young man, you are funny. I like you.” Fergus slapped Mag’s shoulder. “Then, I will look forward to the surprise that you will bring to us next year.”
Mag and Eiffie came down from the stage, and went back to their seats.
It was the silver awards after gold awards. The Explosive Liquor from Reese Tavern and other four brands of liquor received the silver awards this year.
No one had expected Explosive Liquor, which had been deemed the most likely to receive the gold award, to be overtaken by Titan Liquor and Maotai. Even its high score of 48 points paled in comparison.
After announcing the 10 bronze awards, the highlight of this year’s liquor-tasting event had a perfect ending.
“Congratulations.”
“Same to you.”
Mag and Eiffie left the chapel and smiled.
Mag was very gratified. The titan Liquor regaining its gold award would be a great boost in his property investments, and it would make sure his investments continued to boom.
Eiffie looked at Mag with even more admiration and gratitude in her eyes.
If Mag hadn’t torn off the seal on the cellars and let her use the Titan Liquor in the cellar to take part in the competition, she wouldn’t have been standing on the stage today and taking back this trophy that belonged to
her father.
Meanwhile, Mag calmly accepted his gold award trophy, as if he had anticipated it.
Mag saw Amy, who was holding a ton of goodies, and Annie sitting on the swing in front of the chapel as soon as he walked out. Irina was standing close by, while Mala was guarding the children at the side.
“Miss! Did w-we get the gold award?!” Mala saw the trophy in Eiffie’s hands, and ran over with glowing eyes and shock.
“Yes. Our Titan Liquor got the gold award.” Eiffie nodded smilingly.
“That’s great. That’s great.” Mala caressed the gold award’s trophy carefully as her tears flowed.
Mag went to the swing with the trophy.
Amy put her plate on the swing and leaped off it. Staring at the trophy in Mag’s hands with glowing eyes, she exclaimed, “Wow. Father, is it made of gold?”
“I guess so.” Mag passed the trophy to Amy, who had already wiped her cleans clean.
“T’ll know once I tasted it.” Amy bit the trophy, leaving two neat rows of little teeth marks on the edge of it.
“Mm-hm. It’s soft. It’s real.” Amy nodded with experience.
“Seems like joining this competition was quite worth it.” Irina took the trophy, and flicked it with her finger. The trophy made a crisp sound.
“It’s a twin gold award. Our neighbor got the gold award too. Seems like the properties I invested in are going to increase in value.” Mag chuckled.
“She’s really very popular,” Irina said smilingly.
Mag turned back, and saw Eiffie chatting with a middle-aged man in golden robes.
He had an impression of that man. He was the boss of Reese Tavern. If it weren’t for Titan Liquor and Maotai, this year’s gold award would have gone to his Explosive Liquor.
The lean and smart-looking Boris looked very charming. He was a typical diamond bachelor. However, he didn’t seem like he was flirting with Eiffie; instead, he looked like he was having a discussion with her.
Mag didn’t want to interfere in Eiffie’s life. He turned back, and smilingly told Irina, “The highlight of the liquor-tasting event is already over. There’s a banquet afterwards. Should we go for our meals or return home for
our meals?”
“What do the children think?” Irina looked at Amy and Annie.
“We went to the kitchen earlier, and a kind fat uncle already let us eat all their best food.” Amy popped one little fried ball in her mouth and shook her head. “So, we can go home for our meals?”.
