1642 Popovich's cellar

While the two were talking, they looked at the mansion in front of them and saw that it looked like a forest.

It is surrounded by tall pine trees.

The entire mansion, together with the surrounding lawns and golf course, covers an area of ​​more than 20,000 square meters.

There are 5 bathrooms and 4 bedrooms in the mansion.

There are also entertainment facilities such as a billiards room.

Although it is not as luxurious as James's mansion, for ordinary people, it is already impossible to achieve in this life.

The most important thing is that there is a wine cellar of about 50 square meters, which contains more than 3,000 bottles of precious red wine.

Before 2018, Mr. Bo once listed this house for sale for US$4.15 million.

But after two years, no one bought it.

In the end, he had to lower the price again and again, and finally sold the house at a low price of US$3 million in 2020.

But it was bought back two years ago for $4.15 million.

Because he found that the wine cellar here was more suitable for collecting red wine.

After selling and buying, Lao Bobo lost US$1.15 million.

But for him, money is a trivial matter, and red wine is the most important thing.

At this time, Mr. Bo heard the sound of the car and knew that these two people had arrived.

He has already come out.

The silver-haired and silver-bearded Mr. Bo's nose was not so red at the moment, and he seemed quite happy to see these two people.

He first hugged James: "You said you would give me those two bottles of red wine. It has been many years and you haven't fulfilled it yet, and now you come to my place to drink it?"

James laughed loudly: "I have already told you that the two bottles given to you are the last two bottles."

Popovich shook his head: "You are just too slippery. I don't believe it unless I go to your wine cellar to see it."

James shook his head: "No, you will never be allowed to enter my wine cellar. I'm afraid that you will empty my wine cellar after you enter."

The two of them laughed while talking.

Wang Yi looked at these two people and laughed.

There is another story about the two bottles of red wine that Mr. Bo and James talked about.

As we all know, Mr. Bo loves red wine and has collected more than 3,000 bottles of precious wine.

Among them are the 1990 red wine produced by France's top winery Yquem, which is the world's top red wine.

There is also red wine known as "Golden Drop", which is much more expensive than Lafite and the like.

Mr. Bo's status in the red wine circle is no worse than his status in the basketball circle.

That's an absolute winner.

After the team won the championship, others tasted champagne, but he dragged his assistant coach to his wine cellar to drink red wine.

Many players or people who have a good relationship with him are willing to send red wine to Mr. Bo.

James once gave Mr. Bo two bottles of red wine.

At that time, Mr. Bo dismissed the red wine James sent.

He even said half-jokingly in the interview: "LeBron doesn't understand red wine at all."

However, after he took the two bottles of red wine back and tasted them, he drank them all in the next two weeks.

You should know that Mr. Bo usually likes to taste red wine slowly. He thinks it is the greatest enjoyment in life.

So under normal circumstances, if he tastes a bottle of red wine slowly by himself, it will take him at least a month to finish it.

Now I have drank two bottles of red wine in two weeks.

It shows how much he recognizes the taste of this red wine.

That night after the second week, he drank the last drop of red wine.

He was so greedy that he wanted to continue drinking.

So he called James directly in the middle of the night regardless of the night.

"Get me two more bottles of red wine."

James, who was sleeping in a daze, yawned when he heard this: "I'm sorry, Bobo, those are the last two bottles of red wine."

Hearing this, Bobo joked and scolded: "You idiot, can you bear to see a poor old man in his 70s unable to sleep due to red wine at 3 o'clock in the middle of the night?" qδ

James said: "Bobo, even if you want red wine, I don't have anywhere to find it for you in the middle of the night.

And I said those are the last two bottles. But I promise you, if I have a chance to get that kind of red wine in the future, I will definitely get you two more bottles."

Since then, James has never fulfilled his promise.

After all, those were really the last two bottles he could get his hands on.

Mr. Bo didn't say much to the two of them at this time. He waved and said directly: "Follow me."

As he spoke, he led Wang Yi and James through the living room as big as a stadium and to the back door.

After going out the back door, he arrived in his backyard. There was a small room in the backyard.

Entering along the small room, there is a basement.

Open the basement door, and you will find Mr. Bo's wine cellar below.

Wang Yi once saw James’ wine cellar.

The scale is much larger than Mr. Bo's wine cellar.

But if you look carefully, you will find that the precious red wine inside is less than what Mr. Bo has here.

What's Lafite here, what's the super white wine from Chateau Dikin, the 1990 vintage Bordeaux red wine...

In short, you can find almost all the red wines from the most famous wineries and the best vintages here.

Mr. Bo turned back to Wang Yi and said: "I guess you must have been to LeBron's wine cellar, but the ones he sells are all garbage. Look at my place, they are all fine products."

James smiled bitterly: "Old man, I admit that the quality of what I have here is not as high as what you have here, but there is no need to say it is garbage, right?"

The old man's silver beard reflected the burgundy light under the burgundy light in the wine cellar: "My status in the red wine world is like Jordan's status in the basketball world. If I say yours is rubbish, it is rubbish."

James shrugged helplessly and spread his hands to Wang Yi: "Okay."

Mr. Bo said to Wang Yi: "Pick whatever you want, and the three of us will drink three bottles of red wine tonight."

James said: "So generous? You have never been so generous to me before."

Mr. Bo glared at James: "Whenever you get me those two bottles of wine again, I will be generous to you again."

In fact, Wang Yi doesn’t know much about red wine.

He randomly picked up a bottle of red wine with a nice-looking bottle: "Take this bottle first."

Mr. Bo shook his head: "I'm sorry, this is a gift from my wife. It has a deep commemorative meaning for me."

Wang Yi nodded, of course you can't just drink what your wife gave you.

So he walked back a few steps and got a bottle, which seemed to be quite substantial: "Then this is the bottle."

Mr. Bo shook his head: "This is a gift from Michael, the god of basketball."

Wang Yi nodded and took two more steps inside.

Seeing a bottle of ordinary red wine: "Let's take this."

Such an ordinary bottle can't be given by someone else.

Bobo shook his head again: "This is what I plan to bury with you after I die."

Wang Yi was speechless when he heard this.
