Legend has it that a long time ago, there was a well in a street in Zhenjiang, Jiangsu Province, and it was not water but wine that came out. The wine in this well is full of fragrance, 10 miles away, and can be smelled all day long. Therefore, there are many hotels in this street. Those who come for wine don't have to spend money on wine, just buy some side dishes. So more people come here to drink every day, and this street is famous. During the Three Kingdoms period, Zhang Fei, a general of Shu, passed by Zhenjiang. When he got off the dock, he smelled the wine and made his throat itch. When asked, he said that there was a wine well here, but he ignored the military order that "soldiers are not allowed to drink outside". He came, drank a bowl and shouted, "Good wine! Good wine! " I don't know how many bowls I drank in one breath, and people collapsed unconscious. After knowing this, Guan Yu angrily ran to the restaurant and asked him why he gave his brother so much wine. The restaurant said, "Our wine comes from the well and it's free. Whoever comes to the door can drink as much as he wants. " Does Guan Gong believe that there will be drinking wells and free wine in the world? Ask the shop to show him around. He looked down at the well, and a stream of alcohol rushed up from the well. He took a deep breath, and the strong smell of alcohol made him cough and his face flushed. Guan Gong's big red face was thus formed. Guan Gong thought: If this wine costs nothing, people will be greedy, and I don't know how many important things they will miss. So he waved the dragon crescent moon blade and split the well in half at once. The wine in the well flows across the street and becomes an ocean of wine. Later, some people said that this street was called "Jiuhai Street". The wine dripped from the wine well flows along the canal to Danyang, and every household in Danyang uses jars to seal the wine. On holidays, weddings and auspicious days, or when children drink "three dynasties wine", they pour it out to entertain relatives and friends, which is later the famous altar wine in Danyang.
