Looking at Li Mingtang beside him who was caught up in an extremely exciting fantasy, Xu Heng chuckled, with an unknown light flashing in his eyes.
…
In Shanghai, a private restaurant that barely opens to the public.
Li Jin, Li Jianshe and Zhang Jiang were drinking and talking.
On this trip, Li Jin came here specially to handle the loan procedures.
Although such a large amount of loan was personally handled by Li Jianshe, the powerful first vice president, it still required many confirmations of identity and signature procedures, which Li Jin himself had to do.
"It's rare for the three of us to meet. This time, we won't come home until we get drunk."
Zhang Jiang was holding a bottle of Moutai, and he shouted with a red face as he was already tipsy.
The private room is not big, but it can fit three people comfortably, and the table is full of real game that is rarely seen on the market.
Not to mention anything else, just six butter crabs worth thousands of gold are the best that even money can hardly buy.
"Come on, Ah Jin, let's eat a butter crab. I asked an old friend to get this thing. Only one butter crab can be found out of two thousand crabs, and only one butter crab can be found out of ten butter crabs."
Excellent Butter Crab.”
Li Jianshe took a butter crab and placed it in front of Li Jin and said.
Li Jinzheng clinked glasses with Zhang Jiang. Hearing this, he smiled and said, "Then this is really good food. You should try it."
Thanks to his poor background, Li Jin is not very picky about food. All he wants is that he can eat it.
It's 2001 now, and food safety issues are far less serious than in later generations, so most things are still considered healthy.
It's just that delicacies like butter crab are delicacies that are beyond the reach of ordinary people no matter what era they are in.
"Hey, this butter crab is second best. The real good stuff is at the back."
As the host, Li Jianshe lowered his voice and pretended to be mysterious.
Zhang Jiang looked at Li Jianshe and said dissatisfiedly: "Come on, Jianshe, I know that you are the best in the banking industry and the best banker in the food industry, so don't show off."
Li Jianshe laughed and said: "The chef of this private restaurant is one of the best in Shanghai, but what really wows people is a specialty dish, puffer fish!"
Zhang Jiang was stunned when he heard this. Although he was not as professional about food as Li Jianshe, he still knew common sense. He frowned and said, "Isn't this thing poisonous?"
"The most poisonous thing in the world is also the most delicious thing in the world, and I'm talking about pufferfish."
Li Jianshe said with a look of amazement: "Things like pufferfish are full of toxins from the internal organs to the blood. The toxins in one pufferfish can kill tens of thousands of people. It is extremely powerful."
"Although it is highly poisonous, there is always a way to prepare it. In the hands of a chef who knows how to make this dish, it is one of the best delicacies in the world."
"Don't worry, the chef here has been famous for this dish for more than ten years and has never had any problems. On the contrary, everyone who has eaten it will never forget the delicious taste."
"Now this chef makes five portions of puffer fish every week, and some dignitaries fly in from the north to make reservations. Today, I managed to get an order through some connections, and it will be served shortly."
Listening to Li Jianshe's rhetoric, Li Jin and Zhang Jiang looked at each other and smiled at the same time.
Li Jianshe's only hobby is food, which they have all learned before. Li Jin also has some interest and expectation in the puffer fish meat that he admires so much.
While they were drinking and chatting, the door of the box was knocked open.
