“Yes, feel free to order anything.” Although Lee Wei was quite surprised when he saw someone in the crowd who he wasn’t familiar with asking him a question, he still replied frankly.
“Today, Young Master Lee will pay the bill, so you can eat as much as you want. Chu Yang, I guess you haven’t tried much good food, well today you can broaden your view and gain some insight on good food. Or you’ll just be called a country bumpkin.”
When Shi Ming who was standing beside Lee Wei saw that it was Chu Yang who had asked the question, he said with a smile on his face. However, the smile was obviously hypocritical.
“Young Master Lee, it’s obvious that this guy is a pauper. He most probably hasn’t had any good food before. Perhaps he doesn’t even know how to order the dishes here.”
“Yeah, yeah. This guy is too embarrassing. To raise such a question at a gathering like this, it’s obvious that he’s just a naive country bumpkin.”
After hearing Shi Ming’s words, the lackeys around the other silver-spooned kids followed suit and ridiculed Chu Yang.
“That’s right. Just like Shi Ming said, you can eat as much as you want here today. No matter what you want, I’ll definitely let you have it to your heart’s content,” Hearing Shi Ming’s words, Lee Wei was quite willing to ridicule Chu Yang as well, thus he smiled as he said these words to him.
Chu Yang could not help but curl his lips when he saw the smug faces of these silver-spooned kids. It seemed that they were the ones who were naive, having been so sheltered all their lives.
Since they had made such a request, Chu Yang would definitely have to satisfy them well.
“Waiter, I’d like to make an order,” Chu Yang beckoned a waiter over to his side.
“I want some Shark’s Fin, Herbal Drunken Prawn, Bitter Bamboo with Stewed Meat, Roasted Chicken with Gingko, and Flying Dragon Soup. You do know these five dishes, right?”
“Country bumpkin, you don’t even know how to order. I can tell that whatever you’re ordering is cheap just by their names. Do you want me to teach you what to order? Besides, it seems that Clearwater Manor doesn’t have these dishes, why are you ordering dishes that are not on their menu?”
When Shi Ming heard the dishes Chu Yang ordered, he immediately showed a trace of disdain on his face. He had been to Clearwater Manor a few times and had never seen these dishes on the menu. Even if these dishes did exist, how much could they cost? Chu Yang was really a country bumpkin.
“Sir, are you sure these are the dishes you wish to order?” The initially calm waiter had a look of surprise in his eyes when he heard Chu Yang order these five dishes.
“Chu Yang, why haven’t I heard of the five dishes you mentioned before?” Xu Qian, who was standing near Chu Yang, asked him.
When Chu Yang was talking just now, Xu Qian had slowly walked to Chu Yang’s side, afraid that he would be at a disadvantage.
“Haha, you’ll know in a while. Oh right, I’m not the only one who wants these five dishes. Two more sets for my friends. That big boss over there is treating today anyway.”
After hearing Xu Qian’s question, Chu Yang didn’t answer and kept him in suspense. He then pointed at Xu Qian and Qin Feng and said to the waiter.
“Excuse me, sir, may I confirm that you are serious in ordering three sets of the five dishes mentioned just now for these three guests?” After hearing Chu Yang’s words, the waiter immediately walked to the front of Lee Wei and the other silver-spooned kids and asked them.
“Is there anything wrong with the dishes he ordered just now?” Lee Wei, who was standing at the side, noticed that the waiter’s expression seemed to be a little strange, so he asked the waiter.
“The five dishes that this gentleman ordered just now are the five dishes that we don’t serve to the public. However if someone can name the dishes, we will serve them. The shark fins used are all of the best quality, and they must be stored and aged for five years before they can be used for the dish. The living conditions of the prawns used in the Herbal Drunken Prawn are extremely harsh. Most of them are extinct in the world. Only the Clearwater Manor has a special channel to obtain them. As for the Bitter Bamboo with Stewed Meat, I believe that no one has heard of the Bitter Bamboo. This ingredient takes three years to plant, and another three years to mature. Moreover, its harvest is extremely scarce. When it is used to stew meat, it can make the meat taste extremely delicious. Compared to the previous three dishes, the Roasted Chicken with Gingko is a little ordinary, but it uses more than 30 different kinds of ingredients. Among these 30 ingredients, there are four to five kinds of ingredients that only the Clearwater Manor has a way of getting. As for the last dish, the Flying Dragon Soup, I believe that everyone has heard of the saying ‘Dragon meat in the sky and donkey meat on the ground’. The dragon meat in this saying refers to the main ingredient in the Flying Dragon Soup. All these five dishes can only be prepared by the head chef of the Clearwater Manor. As for the price, each dish is between 500,000 and 1,000,000 yuan. The Flying Dragon Soup itself costs 2,000,000 yuan. May I ask, sir, do you really want to order a serving each for the three of them?”
After hearing Lee Wei’s question, the waiter explained to him the mystery behind the five dishes that Chu Yang ordered.
After hearing the waiter’s explanation, the faces of Shi Ming and the other silver-spooned kids immediately turned ashen.
“What’s the hell? Why are the five dishes this fellow ordered so expensive? That Flying Dragon Soup costs two million!”
“Doesn’t that mean that this fellow’s order just now was close to ten million for one person? He ordered for three, so he wants to spend 30 million for a meal?”
“How does this loser know about these dishes?”
The price of each dish that Chu Yang ordered was close to a million. After Lee Wei heard Chu Yang’s words, his expression turned ugly. To eat a meal that cost 10 million, even he was not worth that much.
“You’re just an ungrateful poor bastard. Young Master Lee kindly invited you to dinner, yet you didn’t appreciate it and ordered these strange dishes. I don’t know where you got to know these dishes from, but did you think you could even get a taste of these dishes in your whole life? A guy like you, who even got dumped by his girlfriend, doesn’t deserve to eat these dishes.”
When Shi Ming saw Lee Wei’s ugly expression, he was very angry as well. He held Li Wei’s shoulder and shouted at Chu Yang.
“Young Master Shi is right. This fellow is just here to cause trouble. He doesn’t deserve to eat these dishes.”
“I know him. Isn’t his name Chu Yang? He was dumped by Li Wei a few days ago. He must be unhappy, so he came here to cause trouble for Young Master Shi.”
“It’s fine if he just caused trouble for Young Master Shi, but to think he’s displeasing Young Master Lee at this party. He might be kicked out later.”
After hearing his words, the rest of the people also sneered at Chu Yang.
“Chu Yang, how do you know about these dishes?” Xu Qian, who was standing next to Chu Yang, did not pay attention to the others. Instead, he asked Chu Yang a question out of curiosity.
Xu Qian did not stay away from Chu Yang just because he had offended these silver-spooned kids. Instead, he stood next to Chu Yang with Qin Feng to show his support.
“Haha, I’ll tell you later. So, Lee Wei, Shi Ming, you guys can’t afford these dishes?” Chu Yang didn’t care about the ridicule. Instead, he said to them with a smile.
“Don’t tell me you dare to eat these dishes? You’re not even worth a dish even if we sell you here on the spot seeing those dishes are one million yuan per dish,” Upon hearing Chu Yang’s words, Shi Ming tossed the question back to him.
“We will not be paying for these dishes. If he wants to have them, he’ll pay for them himself,” Lee Wei said to the waiter.
“Well waiter, you can continue serving those dishes, I’ll pay for them. By the way, get a private room for me while you’re at it. Sigh, these people are poor, yet they still come out to treat people. It’s embarrassing. If you can’t afford it, then don’t offer to treat,” After hearing Shi Ming’s words, Chu Yang ignored him and directly said to the waiter.
When Lee Wei, Shi Ming, and the others heard Chu Yang’s sarcasm, their expressions became even more unsightly.
“What? Did I hear wrong? You, a pauper, still want to be served these dishes? I’m afraid you’ll have to work in Clearwater Manor till your death.”
“That’s right. How could he possibly be able to pay for these dishes?”
“I think this fellow is just trying to act cool. He’ll probably tell the waiter later in secret that he’s joking.” The onlookers at the side all thought that Chu Yang was bragging.
“Sir, are you sure you want to order these dishes?” The waiter standing at the side had understood the situation such that these seemingly rich silver-spooned kids would not pay for the person who ordered the dishes just now, so he could only turn around and confirm with Chu Yang.
“Please proceed with the order of the five dishes I ordered just now, and get a private room for me,” Chu Yang affirmed his order once more, then took out a card and handed it to the waiter.
“Yes, sir.” The waiter who was initially hesitant nodded immediately the instant he saw the card..
