Chapter 244 Happiness Is Really Relative

He came to Jingzhou because he had some personal matters to deal with, but he happened to see on Zhang Zuting's Weibo that there was a good private kitchen restaurant here, so he planned to come and try it.

As a result, this situation is a little uncomfortable.

"Then, can I make an appointment tonight?" The young man tried to maintain his demeanor.

The waiter said apologetically: "I'm sorry sir, someone has already booked the room tonight. Considering the time to deliver the ingredients, you can make an appointment for tomorrow night or the day after tomorrow."

The young man was completely speechless. He looked at the waiter and the menu. Resisting the urge to complain, he ordered two dishes and one soup at random.

"Let's do this first." The young man handed back the menu.

"Okay sir, please wait a moment." The waiter placed the order and left with the menu.

The young man took out his mobile phone and tried to search the store on the review website, but he couldn't find it. There isn't even a location for the store on the phone map.

Not only that, the small sign with the table number on the table also reads a line of warm reminder: "In order to better feel the deliciousness of the ingredients, please do not take pictures!"

Then I think that there are so many good dishes written on the menu of this restaurant, but all of them require reservations. The ones that do not require reservations are some regular home-cooked dishes, and the prices are still expensive...

"...Is it possible that I met a black shop?"

The more the young man thinks about it, the more wrong, and he always feels that this store is a little weird.

His name is Xue Zhebin, the only son of the coal boss Xue Yuanqing. He is a high-profile person, and like his father, he never hesitates to show the image of a nouveau riche in front of everyone.

Xue Zhebin is very rich, and naturally he has eaten a lot of private chefs. He also knows that most high-end private chefs inevitably have some strange rules.

But with so many rules like this one, it's really uncommon.

What bothered him even more was the attitude of the waiter. He always said a few words of useless nonsense in a polite manner, so he might as well not say anything.

If it weren't for the decoration of this restaurant really looking very high-end, and it was highly recommended by Zhang Zuting, he might have wanted to take a table and leave now.

Speaking of which, it was mainly because his father Xue Yuanqing was a fan of Zhang Zuting and invited Zhang Zuting to eat several times, so Xue Zhebin followed Zhang Zuting's Weibo and happened to see the information of this private chef.

Otherwise, he would not be able to come to the door himself.

"Wait a minute, if the food doesn't taste good after a while, I will definitely post on Weibo to expose this place!"

Based on the principle of killing a good person, Xue Zhebin decided to wait and see.

If the order of these two dishes is passable, then make a reservation for tomorrow night or the day after tomorrow.

After more than half an hour, the two dishes ordered by Xue Zhebin arrived.

A Longjing shrimp, a pagoda meat, and a soup, chrysanthemum tofu.

The portions are small, but the prices are not cheap at all.

"It's not slow to serve food."

Xue Zhebin knew that pagoda meat was a time-consuming dish. It not only had to be cut, but also steamed. More than half an hour was already fast.

And while waiting for the food, he also ate some snacks and side dishes.

"Whether it is a black shop or not, it will be revealed immediately."

Xue Zhebin looked at the two dishes brought by the waiter.

He deliberately ordered a pagoda meat and a chrysanthemum tofu, because he knew very well that these two dishes are very test of the chef's knife skills and skills.

"Huh? It's not bad?"

Just seeing the appearance of these two dishes for the first time makes people feel a bright spot!

The pagoda meat requires the chef to cut a whole piece of meat layer by layer from the outside to the inside. Pagoda state.

For chrysanthemum tofu, it is necessary to cut a piece of soft tofu like creamy fat one hundred and eight knives horizontally and vertically, cut it into a ball of filaments, the thickness is uniform, and there should be no breakage. Put it in a bowl of clear water like a chrysanthemum blooming.

Xue Zhebin ordered this dish and one soup, mainly to see if this store was not worthy of its name and whether it was a scam.

As for the Longjing Shrimp, I was mainly worried that the pagoda meat and chrysanthemum tofu would not be delicious, so I ordered a home-cooked dish to guarantee the bottom line.

However, to his surprise, the pagoda meat and chrysanthemum tofu exceeded his expectations!

These two dishes are mainly to test knife skills, and it takes decades of hard work by first-line chefs to achieve perfection.

And there is no limit to these two dishes. Like pagoda meat, the thinner the cut, the more layers. Generally, it is considered qualified pagoda meat when it is cut to nine layers, and the ones served here are already cut. On the seventeenth floor, the common pagoda meat has been crushed from the appearance.

Xue Zhebin couldn't help but picked up his chopsticks and tasted the shrimp first.

The shrimps were tender and smooth, and had the aroma of Longjing. Although this dish cost nearly 300 yuan, Xue Zhebin felt it was worth it.

Because he once had this dish in a great Chinese restaurant in Hangcheng and it tasted very similar to here!

He tried the pagoda meat and chrysanthemum tofu again, and the taste did not disappoint him, all were just right!

Coupled with the warm and comfortable dining environment, Xue Zhebin felt as if he had really misunderstood this restaurant.

To make these dishes, you must have traveled all the way to invite a gold medal chef who is good at Hangzhou cuisine, and this kind of person cannot be invited locally in Jingzhou.

More importantly, there are not only Hangbang dishes on this menu, but also many other dishes!

It's definitely not enough to just hire a chef.

Such a chef will definitely not be invited if he has less money. After all, people can make a lot of money in local high-end restaurants, and they are still close to home. Who wants to come all the way to Jingzhou?

With so many chefs, this is a huge expense.

Can you earn it back?

Previously, Xue Zhebin thought that the dishes on this menu were all too expensive, but after trying two bites, he felt that it was not really expensive, but it was a bit cheaper.

Can it really pay for itself?

The main reason is that this restaurant is too obscure, not to mention publicity and advertising, there is not even a sign at the door, and even Xue Zhebin still doesn't know what the restaurant is called.

It was the standard time for lunch, and as a result, Xue Zhebin was the only customer in such a large restaurant.

Isn't this just losing money?

Xue Zhebin looked at the dishes, looked at the waiter who was smiling and waited next to him, looked at the elegant dining environment of this place, and looked at the high-end and exquisite table and chairs...

"Is it possible... what kind of illegal and criminal activities are there?"

Xue Zhebin was instantly alert.

But when you think about it, it doesn't seem right.

The key point is that this restaurant is not an empty shell. Although there are no customers, the things it sells are genuine and the prices are a bit high, but it is still within a reasonable range.

Judging from various signs, this store is simply not well-known, and there is no other doubt.

"Come back tomorrow to see how the dishes here need to be reserved."

"If you can maintain this level... that's really a treasure!"

...

The back kitchen of Mingyun Private Kitchen.

Lin Canrong asked the waiter nervously, "How is it, are the guests still satisfied with our dishes?"

The waiter nodded: "Well, it still looks very satisfied."

Lin Canrong let out a long breath.

That's good!

During this period of time, there have been no customers. Since the day before yesterday, seven or eight customers have come one after another.

But some of them were scared away after looking at the menu. Some asked for a long time and found that many good dishes needed to be reserved, so they left.

There are only two or three people who really stay and eat, but they all order very home-made dishes. Although it can be seen that they are satisfied with the taste of the dishes, most of them will not come back in the short term.

Because the price is too expensive, it is obviously beyond their means.

It can be seen from the dishes they ordered that some of the cheapest green vegetables here cost fifty or sixty yuan. Even if they all order home-cooked dishes, the per capita consumption would have to run more than one hundred.

In Jingzhou, you can already eat a lot of good things at this price.

Therefore, even if the chef's level is high and the ingredients are better, making these dishes much better than the restaurants outside is still beyond the ability of most ordinary people.

But today, as soon as Xue Zhebin came in, Lin Canrong stared at him.

It can be seen that this person is a good money lord.

Xue Zhebin also verified this when he ordered dishes. He ordered more than 300 Longjing Shrimp and more than 260 Gold Pagoda Pork. This meal cost easily 600 to 700 yuan.

If this well-heeled customer can be satisfied with these dishes, it means that Mingyun Private Kitchen has hope!

After all, Mingyun Private Kitchen is not dealing with ordinary people, but local tyrants, and the feedback of local tyrants is the most important.

After hearing that the customer was satisfied with the dishes, Lin Canrong also let out a sigh of relief.

He is now the store manager and no longer cooks in person, but now he interviewed, selected, and dug a lot of money for several chefs in the back kitchen (of course it cost President Pei's money), and now the dishes are available Of course, Lin Canrong would also feel a little proud.

"Manager, the customer has already checked out, and has made an appointment for dinner tomorrow night!" A waiter came excitedly to announce the good news.

"very good!"

Lin Canrong's hanging heart finally let go.

President Pei said before that he should not worry too much about publicity, but Lin Canrong was still a little worried.

But recently I have seen people coming one after another, and there are such rich local tyrants coming to eat, which shows that the publicity work has been going on in an orderly manner!

Sure enough, everything was in President Pei's plan.

Next, as long as you follow Mr. Pei's instructions and carefully prepare every meal and service, Mingyun's private kitchen is just around the corner!

The chefs and waiters of Mingyun Private Kitchen were also instantly full of energy.

...

...

"Ah!"

Pei Qian sneezed, rubbed his nose and put down the handle.

Looking at the time, it was almost five o'clock in the afternoon.

Tonight, I am going to take care of Qiao Liang at Mingyun's private kitchen to soothe his wounded heart.

After being abused for a day, Pei Qian now wants to see how Qiao Laoshi is doing.

Come to Moyu Internet Cafe.

Pei Qian walked up to the second floor quietly and observed Qiao Liang sitting in the corner.

I saw Qiao Liang's face ashen, staring at the screen with all his attention, holding the handle tightly with both hands, and his body tipped aside from time to time, as if he was playing a somatosensory game.

Suddenly, his body shuddered violently, and the whole person froze.

The screen has turned grey.

Qiao Liang's expression changed from stunned to annoyed, from annoyed to despair, and finally from despair to dazed.

He put the handle on the table and looked up at the ceiling slightly, as if he was doubting the meaning of life and his existence.

Seeing Qiao Liang's expression, Pei Qian felt much more comfortable, and there was a smile on the corners of his mouth.

No money spent!

It was indeed the right choice to invite Qiao Laoshi to Jingzhou!

Pei Qian was originally worried because he was not a shaker player, and he didn't know if he could persevere in "Back to the Shore".

If you don't clear the level at the end of the game, you can only reduce the difficulty or postpone the release. Wouldn't that delay the big event?

But now, Pei Qian has found the motivation to persevere, and that is Qiao Laoshi!

No matter how hard it is, as long as he can see that Qiao Laoshi is more difficult than himself, Pei Qian will be instantly full of motivation again!

After all, Pei Qian still had a "Purdue" when he was playing games, and Qiao Laoshi could only dance on the tip of the knife with an ordinary weapon.

Therefore, the sense of happiness is mainly compared!

Pei Qian felt that he was happier than ever.
