Liu Chaoyan's exaggerated reaction made other diners swallow their saliva. Liu Meiyan took out a spoon and scooped a piece of it into her mouth. Liu Chaoyan was so angry that she slapped it with her palm.
Liu Miyan's pupils widened when she ate the tofu: "It's really delicious, so delicious, it's worth two thousand taels!"
Liu Chaoyan was still annoyed that the price was too expensive, but his mood felt a little better because of Liu Meiyan's words.
She was afraid that others would grab it again, so she finished the tofu quickly.
After eating, she was still unsatisfied, her teeth and cheeks were fragrant, and she had endless aftertaste.
She also had to admit that apart from being expensive, there was nothing wrong with this bowl of tofu.
Wu Tong quickly served the second dish, this time a snack - secret rose peanut cheese.
I saw a piece of milky white peanut butter the size of a bowl trembling slightly in front of me.
Wu Tong walked around in front of everyone with the peanut cheese. Everyone came forward to watch, and smelled the faint fragrance of roses. Looking at their color, smelling the smell made people ecstasy.
"This is the palace's secret rose cake. It is made through twenty-six processes. It melts in your mouth and is the best in the world. The starting price is one hundred taels!" Wu Tong signaled everyone to start shooting.
When everyone heard this, they sighed inwardly that snacks worth one hundred taels are really not that expensive.
But it’s really not cost-effective to pay the admission fee and go all the way in vain.
There were also some wealthy diners among them. After a moment of pain, they still raised their signs and shouted the price: "One hundred and ten taels!"
This may be the only time in my life that I grit my teeth and fight hard.
Some people saw that the price increase was not as exaggerated as before, so they also followed suit.
Xi Yan did not interfere in this review and wanted to see the real bidding process.
She served the first dish to heighten the atmosphere, and the Liu sisters cooperated perfectly with her to stir up the atmosphere.
With the previous dish priced at 2,100 taels, the dish priced at 100 taels seemed not expensive. She wanted to create such a psychological illusion.
The final transaction price of the second course of peanut cheese was two hundred and thirty taels.
When diners got this snack, they ate it religiously.
After entering his mouth, the man closed his eyes with satisfaction: "Wonderful, absolutely amazing!!"
It melted in the mouth, and the fragrance overflowed. He felt that his whole five senses were opened by the aroma of the food. He had never eaten such delicious food in his life.
"Is it really so delicious?" The diners watching nearby swallowed their saliva.
This is a snack worth two hundred taels. Could it be that you spent a lot of money to think it was worth it?
"This is the first time in my life that I have eaten such delicious food. No wonder it is a secret recipe from the palace. I will never eat it again in this life." The male diner said, tasting the peanut cheese dish more reverently.
Gu Xiyan felt relieved when she saw this scene.
She wanted to get money quickly, but only the diners at Jixiang House were rich, so it was most realistic to steal money from them. Although these diners were either rich or noble, they could not easily take out the money from their pockets.
Therefore, quality assurance must be achieved, and it must be unique.
So far, it's quite successful.
With the first of its kind, there is no need for Gu Xiyan to worry about the third and fourth dishes.
By the time the auction of the 20 delicacies at noon was completed, except for the one that Liu Chaoyan bought for 2,000 taels, the remaining ones sold for a maximum of 330 taels, making about 7,000 taels.
After the auction ended at noon, Wu Tong began to clear the place.
Other diners who did not take pictures of the delicious food did not receive free admission tickets. Everyone received a small box of snacks from Wu Tong.
This time someone couldn't hold back, opened it, tasted a piece, and praised it profusely.
So much so that when Wu Tong cleared the scene, no one had any resentment.
Afterwards, Wu Tong announced in front of Jixiang Building that admission tickets starting from Shen Shi will also be auctioned, and the person with the highest price can participate in the evening gourmet feast.
The diners who did not come in at noon were in an uproar, but the diners who came in at noon were not so hard to accept. After all, the food at this food festival was really worth it. Everyone who tasted it had endless aftertaste, and felt that the big money spent on this trip was well worth it.
The lunch dish was just the first dish, and it was already so amazing. I can’t imagine how delicious the food in the evening would be.
At three quarters in the afternoon, when it was time to leave the official office, Zhou Mu and Xu Yanqing went to Jixiang Tower.
But none of them expected that the front of Jixiang Tower would be overcrowded at this hour.
"What happened?" Xu Yanqing looked around curiously.
At this time, a man in black attire replied: "Jixiang Tower is bidding for tickets. There are only sixty people on the list, and many people are competing for these sixty places."
It’s only to blame that the group of diners who entered Jixiang House at noon spread the word, saying that the dishes served at Jixiang House this time were simply divine delicacies, and that not being able to enter would be a lifelong regret.
Under the vigorous praise of these diners, many officials who had just been on duty also came to join in the fun. These powerful people were not short of money. The admission tickets alone were sold for fifty taels a piece. This is Jixiang House.
He robbed money on the street and was willing to be robbed.
Xu Yanqing became interested when he heard this.
He is now alone. The woman he loves is with Zhou Mu, and he is in urgent need of comfort from delicious food. How come he is missing out on such an occasion?
He took Zhou Mu with him, forced his way into the crowd, and shouted: "Three hundred taels, the two of us!"
When Wu Tong heard the sound and saw that it was Xu Yanqing, he sealed the deal on the spot, "My lords, please!"
Everyone was peeking at Zhou Mu, only thinking that the man in crimson official robes had an amazing appearance. They had never seen such a person before, and Xu Yanqing's face was also very attractive.
Two stunning men stood forward and attracted everyone's attention.
The wealthy Xu Yanqing took away two tickets at once, making the place even more popular.
In addition, there were already twenty diners who had entered the venue before, and there were only about thirty tickets left, making the atmosphere even more tense.
Gu Xiyan stood at the window on the second floor and watched the lively scene. When she saw Zhou Mu and Xu Yanqing also joining in the fun, she couldn't laugh or cry for a moment.
"Sister is engaged!" Liu Junyan's voice sounded beside Gu Xiyan.
Gu Xiyan looked back at Liu Junyan, not wanting to have any communication with Liu Junyan.
"Mr. Zhou has a good appearance and character. Sister, you must hurry up and don't let others take away your fiancée like before." Liu Junyan continued to sarcastically.
Gu Xiyan smiled lightly and replied: "Don't worry, third sister, I will definitely invite you to the wedding banquet when Mr. Zhou and I get married. But I also want to remind third sister that she is not young. If we don't hurry up, the marriage may change."
It will be difficult. As for Mr. Xu, Mr. Xu will definitely look down on the third sister who is so harsh and mean. Third sister should stop having unrealistic dreams."
Liu Junyan was so angry at what she said that her face was livid, but Xu Yanqing and Zhou Mu had already gone to the second floor at this time, so she couldn't get angry in front of Xu Yanqing.
She quickly raised her smile, stepped forward and said to Xu Yanqing, "Mr. Xu, it's a pleasure to meet you."
