Metropolis: My Rising Life

Chapter 110 Considerate Chen Dashao

On the fifty-third floor of the Ritz-Carlton, walking across the soft red carpet and stepping over the magnificent arches, the entire horizon suddenly became clear.

The luxurious decoration of the combination of Chinese and Western styles reveals a sense of extravagance. A large area of ​​artistic relief is exposed, surrounded by huge floor-to-ceiling windows. Sitting in the dining room, you can overlook the entire city of Shanghai.

Led by the waiter, Chen Yi walked into the private room. As the general manager of the Ritz-Carlton, Xu Feng could naturally book the best private room view. Outside the French windows next to the table is the Shili Yangchang on the Bund. Skyline tower with shining purple and blue colors.

“This is a one-Michelin-star restaurant, which focuses on Cantonese cuisine. The entire restaurant design is based on the scenery, so let alone other things, the scenery is good.”

Yu Jinyu and Qi Yuxuan were ignorant, but followed Chen Yi and Xu Feng into the dining room, sitting on the red satin-filled sofa with the dining table in front of them.

To be honest, Chen Yi thinks this restaurant is quite vulgar. The color used is either brilliant red or golden. It looks brilliant, but it’s too tacky.

“Mr. Chen hasn’t patronized my business for a while, and you are even more of a rare customer, Manager Xu.”

A middle-aged man dressed as a chef walked into the box and greeted Chen Yi and Xu Feng.

Chen Yi had been living in the Ritz-Carlton before, and had not left the hotel for several days. Naturally, he ate in several restaurants of this hotel every day. He was also a guest of the presidential suite, so he mixed with the chef of the restaurant. Very familiar.

“I have been going to school for a while. Where can I find free time? Master Huang will come to patronize your business as soon as I have time. How about it. What good things have you prepared for us today?”

Chen Yi has no sense of strangeness at all, and no sense of separation between young people, and joking with the chef who is very cheerful.

“Knowing that Mr. Chen is coming, I have prepared this specially…”

Master Huang stepped aside and asked Chen Yi to take a look at what the apprentice behind him was holding. “…The Sultan River Fish King weighing 8 pounds, how about it, isn’t it a good thing?”

Chen Yi’s eyes lit up and explained to the ignorant Yu Jinyu and Qi Yuxuan: “…This Sultan River Fish Emperor is also called the Emperor Fish. Just listen to this name and you will know how precious it is. It was supplied to the Sudanese royal family, 8 catties. It’s not a small amount.”

Yu Jinyu and Qi Yuxuan didn’t know the king of fish. They just listened to this name and looked at Chen Yi’s gluttonous expression. They knew that the quality of the fish was absolutely delicious and the price was not low.

Qi Yuxuan was embarrassed to ask, but Yu Jinyu was not as embarrassed, and whispered in Chen Yi’s ear: “…Papa, how much does this fish cost?”

She spoke very quietly, and knew that asking for the price on this occasion was not well heard.

On the other side, Qi Yuxuan also pricked her ears and listened secretly.

“The average 6 catties of Sudanese fish is about 20,000 yuan, which is mainly the price that Chef Huang personally cooks. This 8 catties, let alone 40,000.”(Read more @ wuxiax.com)

Chen Yi said to the bitch without changing his face.

Yu Jinyu and Qi Yuxuan made a noise, Mom, can you taste 40 thousand fish today? It seems that the hundreds of thousands of meals on the Internet are not blown out.

Qi Yuxuan’s complexion is also complicated, is it right for her to follow along? Forty thousand fish, to be honest, it’s normal, she might not eat it once in her life.

“Okay, Lao Huang, seeing Shao Chen coming, he also brought out good things.”

Over there Xu Feng was still making fun with Master Huang, and his words compliment Chen Yi either intentionally or unintentionally.

Even if he is the general manager of Ritz-Carlton, he has an annual salary of more than one million, and he is an absolute elite in society, but this kind of fish that can easily be 40,000 pieces can not be eaten casually.

Master Huang and Xu Feng over there sang and slapped Chen Yi flattery to make Chen Yi feel comfortable, and then Master Huang asked: “…Mr. Chen, how does this fish do today?”

“Come and steam it with chicken oil and huadiao!”

After a pause, Chen Yi said again: “…I will put the pots for 30 years of Huadiao and 98 years of Feitian Maotai.”

The Feitian Moutai that was given to Li Tianwang was more than 2,000 bottles, and the price of a bottle in 1998 was tens of thousands.

Master Huang responded with a smile and went to prepare.

Chen Yi ordered a few more dishes according to the menu. Today’s main dish is the Sudanese fish, and the other items are used to fill the stomach, so just order anything.

“For a while you two leave us alone, eat your food, don’t waste more than 40,000 fish, as many as you can in your stomach.”

Chen Yi took advantage of the gap to talk to Yu Jinyu and Qi Yuxuan in a low voice.

He knew that the two girls were not used to this kind of entertainment, and the two students and Chen Yi and Xu Feng really had nothing to talk about. In order to fear that the two would be embarrassed and overwhelmed, Chen Yi asked them to ignore this and just concentrate on eating.

The identity of Chen Yi, a mysterious young man, is naturally much higher than that of Xu Feng’s general manager of the Ritz-Carlton Hotel. You can see that this middle-aged man in his forties has been accommodating Chen Yi, so there is no need to let himself. Accompanied by his female companion.

Both Yu Jinyu and Qi Yuxuan have a heartwarming heart. Chen Yi, the young master, can still take into account the feelings of the two at this time, which is really caring.

Yu Jinyu’s eyes were charming and soft, and she was already thinking about the eighteen martial arts at night, while Qi Yuxuan lowered her head, her expression a bit complicated.

After a while, the wine and a few dishes came up first, Xu Feng stood up and opened the wine, poured a glass for himself and Chen Yi, and said boldly: “…As a guest of our Ritz-Carlton, I will respect Chen Shao first. For a cup, I also entrust Chen Shao’s blessing to have a good meal.”

Chen Yi smiled and touched the glasses with Xu Feng. Yu Jinyu and Qi Yuxuan also stood up and tried to pour the wine. Chen Yi raised their hands to stop them and said: “…The white wine is too spicy, so don’t drink it.”

To be honest, Chen Yi doesn’t like baijiu, but the wine table culture is a must.

Xu Feng said over there too: “…Ms. Don’t drink, just for the two elders, Shao Chen and I.”

If Chen Yi’s status is lower than him, Xu Feng will inevitably persuade Yu Jinyu and Qi Yuxuan to drink, but now they naturally follow Chen Yi.

The leaders of those companies and government officials may not really like drinking. What they want is the obedience of others who drink and drink. Otherwise, how can they show their authority. And Chen Yi does not allow people to drink, but it is actually a way of letting people drink. The obedience of others.

Steamed Taihu hairy crabs, crispy wheat lobster balls, ginger and razor clams, bamboo shoots, grilled duck in Jinxuan oven, fried river prawns with truffles, several dishes are served one by one, until the king of fish arrives, everyone is ready to move their chopsticks.

Seeing Yu Jinyu and Qi Yuxuan wanting to take pictures with their phones but not daring to take pictures, Chen Yi just smiled and said, “…hurry up and take pictures, what are you doing in a daze!”

Seeing that Chen Yi was so considerate, the two girls took out their phones in embarrassment and quickly took a few pictures.

Eating a fish worth 40,000 yuan, who doesn’t want to take a picture and pretend to be vanity in the circle of friends, this is human nature.

When the filming was over, everyone began to put their chopsticks down. This Sudanese fish was rich in fat, tender and rich in fish flavor. It was also cooked by a Michelin-starred chef personally. Several people were very satisfied with it.

Chen Yi and Xu Feng chatted while drinking, and they talked about what they didn’t. After hearing Xu Feng talk about some interesting facts about the hotel industry, after the third wine tour, Chen Yi just opened his mouth to say what he came for today.
