Yan Hua and the others all doubted whether their ears had heard correctly, never expecting to hear them all praising this drink as delicious.

Sha Lan was the same, even doubting whether she had tasted it incorrectly, and drank another mouthful, only to find it still tasted just as unpleasant.

Yu Ying also performed this action, receiving the same answer, her eyes were so taken by the bitterness she could not open them.

“Shaman, is there a lot of this?” Yan Jiao asked.

He really liked wine. Although this was his first time drinking it, he fell in love with it on the first taste.

“There’s plenty. When people from other Tribes come, we can take it to trade with them for goods. They should really like it.” Su Bai said.

Seeing that the Chieftain and others gave positive reactions put him at ease.

“This will definitely be very popular. I guarantee it. It’s on par with ceramics.” Cang Shi said excitedly.

He really loves wine now. Having just finished the cup in his hands, his eyes were still looking at that jar on the table. He even kept squinting his eyes, inhaling the fragrance, feeling this scent was on par with the aroma of meat.

If it were not for maintaining propriety, he might have poured himself another cup and started drinking on his own.

“It smells wonderful, but I never expected it to taste even better when drunk. It’s better than drinking water,” Qing Yan said with satisfaction.

Even now, he was still savouring the taste of wheat wine in his mouth, never expecting it could leave such a lasting fragrance.

This was different from the fruit juices they usually drank. This wine’s flavour was more enticing, making one unable to resist wanting to try it again.

“If you want to drink, wait a moment. There are several other types of wine to taste as well.” Su Bai indicated the other types of wine on the table.

Seeing their expressions clearly explained everything. Their gazes were all fixed on those wines.

He could even hear swallowing sounds from some of them. It seemed these wines held considerable appeal.

“Yes.” Yan Jiao nodded, his expression becoming excited, but he did not excessively display it. After all, as the Chieftain, he still needed to maintain some dignity.

He could not lose his composure just because he saw these delicious drinks. After all, so many people were present.

“Shaman, are these different varieties of wine?” Cang Shi became excited upon hearing this.

He was not originally someone who particularly cared about his image. Although he was the Hunting Team Leader, he did not want to put on airs. So, upon hearing there were other wines, he could not care about so much else! Drink first, talk later!

“Xiao Yu, pour out the remaining three types, You girls should also try them.” Su Bai instructed.

“Yes.” Yu Ying poured out the remaining grape wine, Sour Fruit wine, and corn wine.

The grapes and corn wine were from crops grown in the greenhouses, directly picking fresh grapes and corn to brew wine.

As for the Sour Fruit, this was gathered from the forest before the snow season arrived.

This fruit was particularly sour. If eaten alone, it would be completely inedible because it was too tooth-achingly sour.

Su Bai had thought at the time of using this Sour Fruit to brew wine. The wine produced would definitely be sweet and sour.

When these wines were opened, they all had a faint sweet aroma. Before even starting to drink, one could sense a hint of sweetness.

This sweetness could be detected from the smell alone. Just smelling the aroma made one’s throat feel slightly sour.

“Shaman, this wine’s flavour is different from the wine we just drank,.” Yan Jiao said, setting down his cup.

What he had just drunk was grape wine. Grape wine was not as astringent. Instead, it had a faint sweetness within, and this sweetness was not strong. The alcohol content was not very high either.

“When comparing these two wines, I prefer the wine we just drank.” Cang Shi said. It was not that he disliked this other wine. He just felt that if he had to choose between the two, he would definitely choose the first one he drank.

“What about you? How do you find the grape wine?” Su Bai looked towards the girls and asked.

He could actually predict this answer. People who liked wheat wine definitely would not accept grape wine as readily. However, this did not mean grape wine was not delicious. It was just that in comparison, wheat wine was superior.

“I like the grape wine. It feels slightly sweet and very delicious.” Yu Ying immediately said.

After Yu Ying finished one mouthful, she drank a second, her fox tail swaying along with her movements.

“Me too. I also prefer the grape wine.” Yan Hua said without hesitation.

After drinking the grape wine, the bitter astringent sensation in her mouth began to fade, replaced by a hint of sweetness.

“Comparing the two, I also think grape wine is better.” Sha Lan chimed in.

Sha Lan also preferred the taste of grape wine. Drinking it felt like actually drinking something, rather than drinking bitter water like with wheat wine.

“Hahaha, I knew it,” Su Bai laughed, continuing, “Then you should continue tasting the next type of wine.”

There was still corn wine and Sour Fruit wine remaining. These two wines’ flavours were also similar to grape wine.

After everyone finished tasting, they gave similar evaluations as before, though they had different opinions about the Sour Fruit wine.

They felt the Sour Fruit wine was sweet and spicy, quite delicious, with a flavour and feeling unlike any of the other wines.

“After drinking all the wines, which type do you prefer most?” Su Bai asked.

He wanted to know which of these four wines was the most popular, so he could also determine their value.

“I prefer wheat wine most, followed by Sour Fruit wine,” Yan Jiao said without hesitation.

After tasting these wines, what remained in his mind was still wheat wine. He felt the wheat wine’s colour and the foam floating on top were the most delicious.

“I’m the same. I also choose wheat wine. Drinking wine while eating meat would definitely be great.” Cang Shi began fantasising about his future meat-eating life.

“I also agree with them. Since that meat is so greasy, drinking some wine would be great.” Qing Yan nodded repeatedly.

This thought had also occurred to him. He felt these wines and meat were a perfect match.

“We all prefer drinking grape wine, and corn wine is also good,” Yan Hua and the others said.

The girls liked sweeter wines, naturally rejecting those with spicy or bitter astringent tastes.

“I understand. These different wines have comprehensive appeal then.” Su Bai smiled.

He naturally understood that no single thing would be liked by everyone, but having several things that could complement each other was also great.
