I Carry a Game World With Me
Chapter 254 - 235: The Magical Dream-Returning WineChapter 254: Chapter 235: The Magical Dream-Returning Wine
[This is a glass of special, blended Dream-Returning Wine. It was developed by the Lin Family, one of the world’s most famous vintner families, over a period of 6 years after the invention of the special element analysis device. They used the device to find and match materials containing special elements.]
The special elements contained in Dream-Returning Wine can stimulate the OH12 region of the hippocampus. Not only is it completely harmless to the human body, but it also allows a person to recall past emotions while in a tipsy state.
Be it sweetness, happiness, pain, or regret... all determined by the drinker’s state of mind!]
When Lu Feng saw the description for this Dream-Returning Wine, he felt like it was something straight out of a fantasy game.
Or maybe a fantasy TV series.
Like the wine Bai Suzhen offers in *My Date with a Vampire*.
Otherwise, what kind of wine could possibly make people recall memories, let alone stir up the accompanying emotions?
But now, this Dream-Returning Wine actually had such an effect. The name was certainly fitting.
Besides, the hippocampus is the part of the human body that governs memory, and the OH12 region specifically controls the emotions tied to those memories. It’s just that these emotions, like the memories themselves, usually lie dormant and fade over time.
And now, this Dream-Returning Wine could actually stimulate this region and bring back those memories.
’This is absolutely incredible.’
Just imagine how insane it would be if this wine appeared in the real world.
Why do so many people drink?
It’s really for that feeling of being tipsy.
That feeling lets them experience a different set of emotions.
For example, someone who is normally cool and aloof might become uninhibited and quite endearing after getting a little tipsy.
A timid person might become very bold, getting to experience what it’s like to be completely unrestrained.
Then there are those who drink to drown their sorrows.
These people are looking for a certain feeling in alcohol, or they use it to numb themselves and fall into a state of emptiness.
What would happen if such a person drank this Dream-Returning Wine? The memories they long for would likely come rushing back, and all the old emotions would erupt at once.
For people like that, it would be hopelessly addicting, something they would become deeply obsessed with.
And that’s not even mentioning ordinary people. The atmosphere of a night out at the bar is already full of various emotions, and people get drawn in precisely because they are pulled along by those feelings.
If they drank this wine, those feelings would become even more intense, and they would become even more captivated.
Who could possibly resist a wine like this?
The bar-hoppers would party even harder.
Because the happiness would be doubled. Of course, the sadness would be doubled too.
But sometimes, people can become addicted to sadness as well.
Therefore, if this wine appeared in the real world, it would absolutely explode in popularity and quickly become a global sensation.
No alcopop, no beer, no foreign liquor... nothing could compare.
Moreover, the Xuanfeng Alliance happened to have the main ingredient, dried tubers, and the two special materials needed to produce this wine. Once a factory was built in the Xuanfeng Alliance, they could start producing Dream-Returning Wine.
They could also leverage Xuanfeng Bank to invite international merchants and promote the wine. Without a doubt, a great many people would be interested in it.
Then, Dream-Returning Wine would spread across the globe at an incredible speed. This way, the people of the Xuanfeng Alliance could make money by cultivating large quantities of dried tubers and the other two materials.
Building the factory would also create jobs, further increasing the income of many people.
When the Dragon Country infrastructure projects begin, they would also need to hire workers from within the Xuanfeng Alliance, which would also boost the income of its people.
When income rises, consumption naturally follows. With a consumer market, many other things could be developed, and it would gradually become prosperous.
After that, as long as he brought out more technology from the game world, the economy of the Xuanfeng Alliance would surely develop rapidly.
One day, he would develop the Xuanfeng Alliance into the most prosperous and developed economic region in the world.
And it would be a place completely under his control, where he had the final say.
Here, he wouldn’t have to be concerned about anyone else, nor would he need to worry about being constrained by some system, holding him back and making him second-guess every move.
As Lu Feng thought about this, he downed the glass of Dream-Returning Wine in his hand.
He planned to experience the magic of this wine for himself.
The alcohol content was similar to popular foreign liquors in bars, but it went down very smoothly, without any harshness.
At the very least, the taste was absolutely superb, definitely better than the famous liquors of the real world.
And just as that glass of Dream-Returning Wine went down, Lu Feng felt a peculiar sensation wash over his thoughts and emotions.
It was a strange feeling. Perhaps because he was in a good mood, the emotion stimulated in the OH12 region of his hippocampus was happiness.
He recalled the first time he met Yang Qingxue—that stunning moment, how he was struck by her beauty as if she were a goddess.
He also remembered being too shy to ask for her WeChat, and the feeling of success when he finally got it after asking around.
He remembered the silly grin he couldn’t wipe off his face while chatting with her on WeChat, the excitement of making their relationship official, and the thrill of the first time they made love...
All these wonderful memories surged forth at once, accompanied by heightened emotions that were simply beyond description.
A smile crept onto Lu Feng’s lips, and he became completely lost in the feeling.
After a long moment, he finally came back to his senses, even subconsciously tilting the empty glass to his lips again.
The wine was gone.
The action left him feeling a bit awkward, but it also proved just how incredible this Dream-Returning Wine was.
In the real world, this wine would take the world by storm.
"This wine of yours is excellent," Lu Feng said, not stingy with his praise for Lin Song.
"Thank you, Boss," Lin Song replied excitedly.
Lu Feng then asked, "Besides this, can you make other types of alcohol?"
Lin Song nodded immediately. "I can. Before the apocalypse, my family also made all sorts of cocktails and medicinal wines... If I take my time and experiment, I can make them."
"From now on, you’ll join the research and development department and focus on creating alcoholic beverages!" Lu Feng said, then commanded, "Now, give me the recipe for this Dream-Returning Wine."
"???" Lin Song froze when Lu Feng said the name "Dream-Returning Wine." ’But I never told him the name, did I?’
Still, he didn’t dare hesitate and immediately handed the Dream-Returning Wine recipe to Lu Feng.
Lu Feng took the recipe and saw the detailed information:
[This is the recipe for the special Dream-Returning Wine. There are two methods of production: 1. Blending by soaking materials in existing alcohol (Advantage: short production cycle, wine can be made quickly. Disadvantage: weaker effect). 2. Careful fermentation and brewing with the main ingredients (Advantage: stronger effect. Disadvantage: long production time!)
Upon use, you will obtain the specific recipe information. Use now?]
In other words, there were two ways to make this wine. He now understood what was meant by the "special, blended Dream-Returning Wine" he had just drunk.
This meant the wine came in two grades: a regular one and a premium one.
The blended version was just the regular, weaker one, while the premium version required special brewing.
Once everything was set up, the regular version could be sold normally, while the premium one could be marketed as a collector’s edition.
Besides, if the regular version already made him feel like this, how magical would the premium one be?
Lu Feng didn’t hesitate and immediately chose to use it.
In an instant, the recipe dissolved into motes of starlight and vanished before the astonished eyes of Lin Song and the guards.
At the same time, a flood of related information poured into his mind.
Then, with a thought, he vanished from the spot and logged out of the game.
This scene left Lin Song and the guards staring at each other in bewilderment.
’This man is truly formidable.’
’He comes and goes without a trace, vanishing into thin air.’
Back in reality, Lu Feng carefully reviewed the recipe for Dream-Returning Wine, familiarizing himself with it. He then wrote down the required ingredients. Tomorrow, he would have his cousin buy some materials so he could make a batch and test it out.
After all, with so many entertainment venues under his name, he had the perfect places to experiment.
However, to be on the safe side, he also added decoy ingredients, increasing the list’s length by half.
The next day, he called his cousin, Yang Ming, early in the morning and asked to meet him at Qingfeng Tea City.
"Xiaofeng, calling me out to the Tea City this early for tea? What’s on your mind?" Yang Ming knew his cousin well, asking as he sat down and began to brew the tea.
Lu Feng nodded and handed the list of materials he had written yesterday to Yang Ming. "Cousin, help me buy these ingredients. And also get me some foreign liquor."
Yang Ming took the list, a little puzzled. ’Why is my cousin suddenly so interested in alcohol? Based on past experience, he’s not about to create some other kind of special liquor, is he?’
"Mm!" Yang Ming nodded. Although he was curious, he didn’t ask any more questions.
As the two were brewing tea, Xiaoyao came to report that Mr. Chu and Mr. Lin had arrived.
’It must be about the 30 billion USD infrastructure contract.’
As expected, as soon as the two men sat down, they both spoke at once:
"President Lu, sorry to bother you again."
"President Lu, there’s something we must discuss with you."
"Please, both of you, sit and we can talk," Lu Feng invited with a smile.
After they were seated, Mr. Chu immediately said, "President Lu, this 30 billion USD infrastructure contract you’ve brought is simply too large. The Tianzhou City authorities can’t handle it alone, so it’s been reported to the higher-ups."
"Therefore, departments from the central government will be getting involved. Moreover, the higher-ups have already organized for major infrastructure companies to come to Tianzhou City tomorrow. At that time, President Lu, you can meet with their representatives."
"Mm, I understand," Lu Feng said with a smile.
He had actually anticipated this. It was to be expected. For a 30 billion USD project involving the Xuanfeng Alliance, it would be strange if the higher-ups *didn’t* react.
It was just that having controllable people like Mr. Chu and Mr. Lin handle it would save him a lot of trouble.
Then, he remembered something and said, "I’ll meet with the people from the infrastructure companies, but please extend a special invitation to one company: Zhonghe Infrastructure. The owner’s surname is Cheng."
He had a good chat with that Brother Cheng on the plane, and he had sounded the man out. He felt he was a decent person and wouldn’t mind collaborating.
"Of course," Mr. Chu nodded at once.
This was a small matter for him.
To be honest, after he reported this matter, he had gained a lot of prestige. A significant portion of the credit had definitely been attributed to him.
This credit was a gift that President Lu had practically thrown in his lap. At this point, whatever this President Lu said, went. He would arrange it without a second thought.
Soon, the two men left.
After Mr. Chu returned, he immediately looked up Zhonghe Infrastructure and sent an invitation.
At Zhonghe Infrastructure, Cheng Jian had also been closely following the news about the 30 billion USD Xuanfeng Alliance infrastructure project. In fact, it was already a hot topic of discussion in their industry.
Well-informed sources said that a major figure in Tianzhou City had arranged the project.
Everyone was curious about who this powerful person was. They all wanted to meet him and were even hoping to get connected.
Unfortunately, although many had submitted applications, none had heard back. Under these circumstances, it was likely that even giants like China Construction would get involved, meaning most of the smaller infrastructure companies’ applications stood no chance of being approved.
Just as Cheng Jian was thinking this, his secretary rushed in and reported, "President Cheng, our application was approved! We just received an official notification to go to the banquet hall of the Shenglong Grand Hotel in Tianzhou City tomorrow to discuss the specifics of the Xuanfeng Alliance infrastructure project."
"Fantastic!" Hearing this news, Cheng Jian shot up from his executive chair.
This meant he had a chance to get a piece of the pie. More importantly, he would have the opportunity to see just what kind of titan had managed to bring this project into the country.
