Chapter 564: Moon Tower Executives
Tian Yuan World has over a thousand continents, but Wangyue Restaurant only has nearly a hundred vintners, so each of them is responsible for brewing the spiritual wine needed by Wangyue Restaurant branches in ten continents.
The vintners' skill levels vary, and the disparity between continents is like the difference between clouds and mud.
Prosperous continents have abundant Spiritual Qi, rich resources, and many Opportunities.
Impoverished continents lack everything.
Given this disparity, everyone wants to go to a prosperous continent, not only for more benefits but also to aid their own Cultivation, and no one wants to be assigned to an impoverished place.
Just like Cang Continent in the past, it was not only barren but also remote, to the extent that Wangyue Restaurant didn't even build branches there.
Therefore, Wangyue Restaurant implemented a vintner assessment every fifty years, with the aim of comprehensively evaluating the skill levels of all vintners.
Simply put, the capable ones reside there.
Those with high wine-making skills can remain in prosperous continents, while those with lower skills must diligently go to impoverished areas to hone themselves and improve their levels.
This distribution method was recognized by everyone and has been passed down ever since.
Before the magnificent palace, streams of divine light occasionally flew in from afar.
Most were in pairs, one manager leading one vintner.
Shopkeeper Qiu took Xu Chu to meet his good friends.
He also instructed Xu Chu to talk more with other managers, saying that they might be assigned together sometime in the future, and being familiar would make cooperation more efficient and harmonious.
There was still some time before the assessment began, and some people, having nothing to do, directly took out spiritual wine and started drinking and chatting.
"Did you hear about what happened between Seven Kings City and Azure Firmament Merchant Guild recently?"
"Nonsense, it was such a big commotion, who wouldn't know?"
"It's a pity that the Emperor Realm experts from both sides didn't participate, otherwise it would have been an all-out war."
Clearly, there were many people on Wangyue Restaurant's side who enjoyed watching the excitement; after all, they had always been suppressed by the Azure Firmament Merchant Guild and naturally wanted the Azure Firmament Merchant Guild to fall so they could rise.
"This is good enough; if it were a full-scale war, many forces would be affected."
After all, these two forces are too powerful and have existed for a long time, having intricate relationships with other forces.
For example, Cang Lu, one of the Seven Kings, has always had deep conflicts with the Jade Abyss Imperial Court; if Seven Kings City and the Azure Firmament Merchant Guild were to fight, it would be difficult to guarantee whether the Jade Abyss Imperial Court would intervene.
And the hostile forces of the Jade Abyss Imperial Court would naturally not stand idly by.
This is like pulling one hair and moving the whole body; once a full-scale war breaks out, few forces can truly remain uninvolved.
At this moment, Xu Chu asked, "How serious were the losses on both sides?"
These two families were also enemies of the Xu Family, so he naturally wanted to understand.
"The losses were quite severe; at least for a long time in the future, both families will lie low and focus on recovering."
Upon hearing this, Xu Chu was naturally overjoyed and secretly delighted.
About an hour later, more and more people gathered in front of the palace.
"Dong…."
A clear, melodious chime suddenly rang out, echoing among the mountains and attracting the attention of everyone present.
Shopkeeper Qiu whispered, "Let's go, enter the palace. The assessment will officially begin soon."
The managers and vintners in front of the palace successively entered the palace.
Inside the magnificent palace, it was equally simple and grand, with many exquisitely crafted and profound decorations, showcasing Wangyue Restaurant's profound heritage.
Inside the palace, there was a high platform, and on the high platform were several experts with terrifying auras. They looked smiling and amiable, but in reality, their strength was more astonishing than the last.
Below the high platform, there were individual stone tables, each with some Materials and brewing tools, which should be what the vintners would need later.
Shopkeeper Qiu introduced, "There are three people at the very front. The white-haired, vigorous old man standing on the left is Elder Li, the current chief vintner of Wangyue Restaurant."
"The old woman in a gray palace dress on the right is Elder Qian, the general manager of Wangyue Restaurant, and the one in the middle is Yan Jiang, the Lord of Wangyue Restaurant."
"And the other few are experts from major forces that have good relations with our Wangyue Restaurant. These eleven people are the examiners for the assessment."
Xu Chu nodded secretly, not expecting that the helmsman of Wangyue Restaurant would also appear for this vintner assessment.
"What is the content of the assessment?"
Although he knew it was related to brewing, Xu Chu didn't know the specifics.
Shopkeeper Qiu replied, "Our Wangyue Restaurant's assessment for vintners aims to select those with stronger business capabilities and allocate better resources to them. Therefore, the content of the assessment is naturally the vintners' basic business capabilities."
"The Lord and Elder Li will each select a signature spiritual wine from our Wangyue Restaurant and have the vintners brew it on the spot. The two scores will be added together, and the ranking will be based on the final score."
After speaking, Shopkeeper Qiu did not forget to add:
"Some experienced vintners have been with our Wangyue Restaurant for several centuries, and they are extremely familiar with all the signature spiritual wines, brewing them flawlessly."
"You've only been a vintner for Wangyue Restaurant for a few years, making you the one with the least time and fewest attempts at brewing signature spiritual wines among the vintners present. So, don't feel any pressure; just perform normally."
"With your Genius and skill, you might achieve good results next time and go to a better place than Qing Province."
Although Shopkeeper Qiu had seen many Genius vintners, he still had great faith in Xu Chu's brewing skill and Genius.
Xu Chu calmly replied, "Understood."
As for pressure, Xu Chu felt none; this was the confidence brought by his strength.
After all, Xu Chu might not be skilled in combat and killing, but if you talk about alchemy, artifacts, formations, talismans, brewing, tea cultivation, beast mastery, or Puppets, Xu Chu had never submitted to anyone.
