A table of Tongquelou has a standard of eighteen flavors, priced at one million. Drinks are not included. This kind of luxury consumption is not cheap, no matter whether it is Beijing, Baicheng or New York and Paris. It is even expensive. As a result, this guy said he wanted less when he walked in.
The two tastes are not easy to accept in the eyes of anyone, including Aunt Fang who entertained everyone.
Her movement of drinking tea paused slightly, her spiritual eyes that seemed to be able to speak slightly raised, and she said slowly: "Which two flavors?"
"Delicate meat." The middle-aged man added. "Pearl meatballs."
The delicacy meat is a mixture of the most precious and tender parts of animals that can be legally eaten. It is one of Tongquelou's signatures. The same goes for the pearl balls. They are definitely not the tofu balls or lotus root balls in ordinary small restaurants -
Of course, the reason why these two dishes are so precious is that a certain emperor in the Qing Dynasty regarded them as appetizers, so they became famous. The old chef knew the essence of them, and because the workmanship was complicated and long, they were by no means everyone in Tongquelou.
Everyone can eat it. The middle-aged man opened his mouth with these two flavors. A faint strange color flashed across Aunt Fang's beautiful eyes and said: "Let anyone who wants to eat come to me and ask for it."
The middle-aged man looked slightly startled and opened his lips, but in the end he did not dare to answer. He bent down and left Chunfeng Pavilion.
As soon as he left, the originally lively and harmonious atmosphere suddenly became awkward. Chu He was okay, but Xia He was a little at a loss and wondered whether he should persuade Aunt Fang.
She was not stupid, and she also heard the subtext of Aunt Fang's conversation. The middle-aged man was probably instigated by someone to take food from Aunt Fang's table. Unexpectedly, Aunt Fang ignored her at all, and who else was she talking about?
If you want to eat, ask someone to come over and ask for it. This is putting the conflict on the table. I guess if the other party gets a little harder, it will be difficult to finish the meal peacefully tonight.
As soon as the man left, Aunt Fang smiled at Xia He and said: "This delicacy is considered the signature dish of Tongque Tower. Although the taste may not be as good as the hype, if you enter Tongque Tower, you can't taste it."
This is such a treasure. It is indeed a pity."
Xia He pursed her lips with a stiff smile and said softly: "Aunt Fang, actually I can eat anything."
"Having said that, I have already paid and the people are on the table." Aunt Fang still smiled gently and virtuously, but there was a faint power in her body that even Chu He had never seen before.
Little Lolita has never been afraid of big things since she was a child. She clapped her hands and said, "Aunt Fang is so courageous. I admire you so much."
"Don't talk nonsense." Xia He frowned slightly and said angrily.
The little Loli stuck out her tongue, drew back her neck and took a sip of tea. She turned around and smiled at the beauty next to her: "Pretty sister, can you serve us something else first? I'm so hungry."
The gauze beauty nodded softly and said with a smile, "I'll go to the kitchen right now."
…
The middle-aged man in a neat suit is called Fei Yuxuan, with an elegant and pleasant name. He is also the person in charge of the Tongque Tower table. Since the customers who come here are not rich or expensive, it is difficult for him, the so-called person in charge, to be condescending.
Feelings. Apart from the group of young girls and basic employees, he doesn't have many subordinates he can control. Even the kitchen - he doesn't dare to point at it casually. If he really puts his skills and abilities together, the big boss behind the scenes will definitely
He could cut himself into pieces for the sake of the old cook.
These days, talent is still number one.
Fei Wenxuan walked quickly to another courtyard, and until he pushed the door in, his face was filled with a warm smile, and he said to a table of luxuriously dressed men and women: "I have just greeted the guests of Chunfeng Pavilion.
Already."
There were eight men and women at this table. The men were handsome and the women were pretty. They happened to be four men and four women, and they were well matched. When Fei Wenxuan spoke, the young man in a white suit at the head put down his cup, his expression slightly relaxed.
He asked: "What did the other party say?"
"Say over there -" Fei Wenxuan tried hard in his heart to express Aunt Fang's lines tactfully, but Aunt Fang didn't leave any room at all. He racked his brains but couldn't do it without hurting his face, so he said cautiously, "I'll let you go there in person.
"
"Oh?" The man in white raised his eyebrows and joked. "You want me to serve the food in person?"
Snap!
A man beside him slammed the table and shouted: "Don't you have a serving girl in Tongque Tower? Do you want the guests to serve the dishes themselves?"
Fei Wenxuan's heart skipped a beat and he said bitterly: "It's not easy for me to forcefully take the other person's food——"
"Then you can force us to starve??" The man with an obviously hot temper suddenly poured two plates of food into the trash can and said in a deep voice. "Now we are missing one plate of food. It's up to you!"
Fei Wenxuan's eyes twitched. He thought to himself: Prodigal, so fucking prodigal!
The material cost of this dish alone was tens of thousands. It was just thrown into the trash can. You really don’t regard money as money!
He dodged his gaze, then looked at the leading man in white as if asking for help, and said in a suppressed tone: "Young Master Hu, our Tongque Tower has indeed never set a precedent like this -"
"Master Hu, it's my birthday today, so what if you make an exception?"
The man in white also lit a cigarette elegantly, pursed his lips and smiled: "I don't care. But you have to convince these brothers. They have wanted to try the old chef's cooking for a long time."
He made it clear that he did not intend to let Fei Wenxuan step down.
Fei Wenxuan couldn't help but sweat broke out on his forehead, he rubbed his palms and said, "Then I'll go talk to them over there."
"Who is eating over there?" the man in white asked when Fei Wenxuan turned around to go out.
Based on the confidentiality of the guests, Tongque Tower rarely reveals the identity of the guests. Normally, Fei Wenxuan would never violate the rules easily. But at this moment, the situation has changed, and Fei Wenxuan can only hope that he will reveal the identity of the other party.
This will make the commander no longer forcefully seize food.
After a moment of concentration, Fei Wenxuan said slowly: "Boss Rui."
Boss Rui?
Except for the man in white, the other three people were stunned. The man with a hot temper before raised his eyebrows and said: "What boss Rui? Is there such a person in Yanjing?"
Fei Wenxuan didn't know how to explain it, but the man in white joked: "It's not surprising that you don't know him. Boss Nari is not from Yanjing."
Being at the feet of the emperor, many people will have an inexplicable sense of superiority. This is especially true for a group of young people from well-off families who grew up shouting about golden keys. It is as if the people of Baicheng feel that except for them, everyone in the country is inferior.
They are from the north. Just like the people in Huangpu think that except for them, all other provinces and cities are rural. They have a deep-rooted sense of superiority.
"Oh?" The hot-tempered young man saw the obvious magnanimity in the white-clothed man's eyebrows and understood that this was not a tough one, at least his brother could chew it. He said casually, "What kind of person is he? What do you do at home?"
"It's interesting to say. This boss Rui is very low-key and rarely shows up. But I know that her ancestral home is Xishan." The man in white said step by step.
"Xishan?" The fiery young man joked with a mocking smile on his face. "The one who digs coal at home?"
As soon as he said this, everyone burst into laughter. Especially those beautiful women, who were all smiles, and the tender flesh on their chests trembled violently. It was really eye-catching.
Men are always like this, no matter how high or low they are, they all like to express themselves in front of women. It’s just that everyone behaves in a different way. Some act cool and cool, while others act like a monkey. It’s purely a personal preference.
The man in white took a puff of cigarette and said with a smile: "At least I've dug it before."
Big hotels look down on small restaurants. Small restaurants look down on roadside stalls. The same goes for these young Yanjing princes who live a comfortable life and enjoy a much higher level of material and spiritual enjoyment than ordinary people. Boss Futingnarui is actually a nouveau riche coal boss.
, couldn't help but feel contemptuous, and even refused to obey the previous temptation. He directly ordered Fei Wenxuan to deliver the dishes they wanted. Otherwise——
Those who can enter Tongque Tower must be rich or noble. And the men at this table are the best among them. Either someone in the family is an official or has a fortune, how can a nouveau riche who digs coal take it seriously?
This is no longer simply suppression of status, but also of style and quality. In their opinion, the so-called Rui boss is not even qualified to eat these delicacies. It is like giving caviar to poor people who have no food to eat.
.Give Ferrari Lamborghinis to poor people who can’t afford bicycles. It’s a waste of money.
Fei Wenxuan saw that these people were probably not going to let go of the old chef's two plates of delicacies, and felt hesitant and helpless. He went to Boss Rui to ask for it?
But if Boss Rui refuses to give it, what should I do? Is it possible that he really wants to offend Boss Rui?
That decision is definitely not what he is willing to do, nor does he dare to do it. No matter whether Boss Rui in Chunfeng Pavilion is looked down upon by a group of people here, at least it is not something he can offend.
But if you don't ask for it - it's obvious that the people in front of you won't give up.
I was caught in contradictions and entanglements for a while.
"Tell her that tonight's expenses are mine." Master Hu said lazily. "Besides, if she still refuses, just tell me her name."
As soon as these words came out, Fei Wenxuan suddenly felt a little more relaxed. He said "Hu Yuan". Maybe the Rui boss would give up those two dishes because of Hu Yuan's status?
In this way, this crisis has come to a successful end.
He nodded lightly and said with relief: "I'll go find Boss Rui to discuss it right now."

After that, he slowly left the courtyard.
