Gao Dewei grinned.
"Yun Xing and I have known each other for ten years. At that time, he had not graduated from college. I thought this kid would definitely have a future, so I went to play with him. Hey, I guessed right.
Now he is also responsible for his own role in Shenguang Group, and it is not impossible that he will eventually become the chairman."
Xue Chen thought in his mind that it would not be easy for Jing Yunxing to become the chairman. Even the proposal of joint mining of jade mines was not passed, which shows that he does not have a great say in Shenguang Group.
When we arrived at Tan's Private Kitchen, in a large private room, more than a dozen people sat around a large round table. All kinds of exquisite and attractive dishes were laid out in a smooth flow, and everyone who tasted them nodded in praise.
"The food from Tan's Private Kitchen is really good. I have eaten in at least four to five hundred restaurants, large and small, including big hotels and century-old restaurants in alleys, but the food from Tan's Private Kitchen is at least in the top five."
Gao Dewei said in a gourmet tone.
Of course, he is not bragging. The only thing he does every day is eat, drink and have fun. It can be said that he has no problem being a semi-gourmet.
A male assistant sitting next to Gao Dechao spoke up and said with a smile: "Tan's food is indeed good, but I have eaten in a restaurant that is several times better than Tan's food."
Gao Dewei raised his eyebrows: "How many times? Assistant Qin, you are going too far. There are indeed dishes that are more delicious than Tan's cuisine, but if you say it is several times more delicious, it is simply impossible, even if it has three Michelin stars.
I've eaten at seven or eight of them, but in my opinion it's nothing more than that, and it may not be as good as Tan's cuisine to my taste."
"How many times better?" Xiong Linlin was putting a small piece of braised Australian abalone into her mouth. Well, it tasted really good and made her feel happy. She didn't believe there was anything better than Tan's food.
Several times as many restaurants.
Gao Dechao also looked at his assistant with some surprise: "Xiao Qin, which restaurant are you talking about? If it is really so delicious, wouldn't we know?"
"It's a long story. The restaurant I'm talking about is not in Beijing, but in Baoshi, Inner Mongolia. About three or four months ago, I went to Baoshi on a business trip and an old local friend invited me there. He ordered it.
Of the five dishes, four of them were mediocre and could only be regarded as average, but the plate of scrambled eggs with tomatoes was extremely delicious. I have not forgotten the taste even after a few months."
Looking at Assistant Qin's appearance, he almost drooled. Gao Dewei chuckled: "Tomato scrambled eggs? Isn't that just tomato scrambled eggs? No matter how delicious a tomato scrambled egg is, how much can it eat, and how can it be made into flowers?
?”
Assistant Qin smiled bitterly and said: "But it is true. I heard from my friend that some of the special dishes in that restaurant are indeed very delicious and very popular, and they are in limited supply. When I went there that day, I also saw a
The driver of the deputy mayor went to pack it up and bring it to the deputy mayor to taste."
What Assistant Qin said was so conclusive that many people here were a little doubtful.
"Assistant Qin, what's the name of that restaurant? I'll take a flight to try it some other day. I want to see if it's really that evil." Gao Dewei said.
"The name of that restaurant is...hey, what's it called..." Assistant Qin rubbed his forehead.
“Sihai Hotel.”
Suddenly someone reminded him, and Assistant Qin suddenly said: "Yes, it's called Sihai Hotel."
"Huh?" Gao Dewei turned his head and looked at Xue Chen, who was sitting aside, with a surprised look on his face, "Brother Xue, how do you know this restaurant? Have you ever tasted it? Then tell us quickly, is it really like that?
tasty?"
For a moment everyone looked at Xue Chen. If Assistant Qin's words were not enough to convince everyone, if Xue Chen was also sure, then there would be nothing wrong.
Xue Chen put down the chopsticks in his hands and said with a faint smile: "Of course I have eaten at Sihai Restaurant before, because it was originally opened by my college classmate's home."
When he heard Assistant Qin talking about Baoshi and scrambled eggs with tomatoes, he guessed that he was talking about Sihai Hotel. He was also surprised that the name of Sihai Hotel could be heard in the capital. It seemed to be developing very well.
.
"Oh? It's served at your college classmate's house. Is it really that delicious?" Gao Dechao asked hurriedly.
"Well, that's true." Xue Chen nodded. The vegetables watered with water that had the ability to rejuvenate were extremely delicious, and the dishes they made were fragrant. They were indeed beyond the scope of normal cooking skills.
Gao Dechao immediately became interested, because Century Longteng has recently had a project, which is to build a boutique restaurant similar to Tan's private kitchen, focusing on high-end customers. He is planning what cuisine to choose, Chinese food or Western food? If it is Chinese food, Sichuan food
, Guangdong, Shandong...how to choose among the major cuisines?
Now when he heard that there was a restaurant that cooked dishes that were several times more delicious than Tan's private kitchen, he felt that this was an opportunity. If he could hire the chef of that restaurant, he would get twice the result with half the effort.
Now that I heard that Xue Chen also admitted that some of the dishes made by the famous Sihai Restaurant were indeed extremely delicious, everyone present had the urge to take a plane and try them for themselves.
After dinner, Gao Dewei drove Xue Chen away, and Xiong Linlin also sent Li Jiayi back to her residence.
Li Jiayi is not from Beijing, but she is considered a drifter from Beijing. She rented a one-bedroom, one-living house in an ordinary community in the Fifth Ring Road. Although she had some savings after working as a stewardess for two or three years, the housing prices in Beijing were also rising.
Sorry.
Watching Li Jiayi get out of the car and looking at the old community in front of her, Xiong Linlin said half-jokingly: "Jiayi, I think Xue Chen is really good. He should be very rich. If you can really be with him,
I don’t think I need to rent a house anymore.”
Li Jiayi shook her head gently: "Linlin, I have told you several times that he and I are really not familiar with each other. Stop making such jokes, otherwise I will be angry."
"Okay, okay, I'm just saying, it doesn't matter if we're not familiar with each other. If we communicate more, we'll naturally become familiar with each other. With our Jiayi's external conditions, as long as we hook our fingers, we're afraid that he won't bow down before him.
Under the pomegranate skirt?" Xiong Linlin finished speaking with a smile and drove away in a hurry.
Li Jiayi turned around, glanced at the dimly lit neighborhood, tightened her clothes, and walked over in a hurry.
Xiong Linlin drove back home. Her family lived in a high-end community outside the Third Ring Road, with an area of ​​more than 140 square meters, and the decoration cost nearly 20 million.
She used to feel that her home should be regarded as a luxury home, but now she feels that it is nothing more than that. Xue Chen discovered that a painting is worth 20 million, and it can be exchanged for a piece of paper less than one square meter.
Her family's house.
Moreover, Xue Chen personally said that he collected a jade pillow worth 40 million yuan, which could be exchanged for two of their houses, and it was not the best?
After opening the door and returning home, Xiong Linlin said hello to her father who was sitting in the living room watching the news and the newspaper.
"Linlin, why are you back so late?" Xiong Jidong asked unhappily when he saw his daughter coming back through the door, "How many times have I told you that a girl should go home early at night and not hang out outside.
Don’t even make some random friends.”
If it were the past, she must have muttered something dissatisfied and gone back to her room, but today she didn't. Instead, she walked over and said confidently: "Dad, I didn't hang around. I went to eat with someone. Others
Can you guess who it is that invited me? Huh, you won’t be able to guess it.”
"Who else could it be, just your children?" Xiong Jidong said nonchalantly, continuing to read the newspaper in his hand.
"You guessed wrong, my friends won't invite me to the Tan family's private kitchen." Xiong Linlin said with a smile.
"Tan's private kitchen? Who is so generous?" Xiong Jidong asked in surprise.
"You may not believe it, but it's Gao Dechao." Xiong Linlin blinked.
"Gao Dechao?" Xiong Jidong felt why this name was so familiar. It took him more than ten seconds to suddenly remember it. He put down the newspaper and said in surprise, "Who are you talking about? Gao Dechao? Gao Dechao, the chairman of Century Longteng?"
Xiong Linlin knew that her father would react like this, so she nodded her head and said with raised lips, "Yes, that's him, but he didn't invite me. Jiayi and I were just invited by the way."
Xiong Jidong then asked: "Linlin, tell your father what happened and how did you meet Gao Dechao?"
Xiong Linlin also wanted to share the incredible story she saw with her own eyes at the Tianli Hotel today. She immediately told her father everything about her accidental encounter with Xue Chen and then to the Tianli Hotel.
Everything was described to Xiong Jidong in detail. While talking, he couldn't help but get excited and his face turned red.
Xiong Jidong was also stunned for a while. He occasionally played with antiques, but he didn't really like it, just to socialize.
Gold in troubled times, antiques in prosperous times. Now, from department leaders and big bosses to small white-collar workers and vendors, more and more people are exposed to and understand antiques.
On weekdays, some bosses meet for parties and drinks, and they all talk about literature, play calligraphy and painting, and look elegant. If he doesn't know anything about these, then he won't fit into that circle, so he can only follow the trend, do some things, and get to know him better.
But the story he heard from his daughter was beyond the scope of his imagination. There was such a thing as a hidden painting within a painting. Uncovering a famous painting by Tang Bohu worth 20 million in one fell swoop sounded amazing.
"That's what happened. Gao Dechao invited Xue Chen, and by the way, he also invited Jiayi and me."
Xiong Jidong was silent after listening to his daughter's experience for most of the day. His eyes were flashing and he clenched his fists subconsciously. He felt that he had encountered a good opportunity!
He opened this interior decoration company, and recently, Century Longteng Group is planning a high-end restaurant. It wants to outsource the interior decoration. After passing through layers of screening, there are still five companies left competing, including his company!
