The Emperor's Mansion, fifteenth floor, Dragon View Pavilion.

The VIP room was warm and cozy, filled with a pleasant aroma.

A top-level Chinese chef, dressed in a white uniform and wearing a white hat, is standing respectfully beside the table, explaining the cooking details and health benefits of each dish in a professional tone.

"Aged male shad belly stewed with snow lotus from the snow-capped mountains: Selected from 20-year-old deep-sea male shad belly, which has an extremely high collagen content, it is stewed for four hours with highland snow lotus, old ginseng from Changbai Mountain, and five-year-aged Shaoxing wine..."

"It has the effects of nourishing the skin, replenishing blood and qi, repairing skin collagen, regulating menstruation and strengthening the body, and is especially nourishing for women."

The rich aroma wafted into Chen Fangyuan's nostrils, and as he listened to the chef's detailed explanation, his taste buds were awakened, and his Adam's apple bobbed involuntarily.

I really want to eat it...

No, I don't want to.

Chen Fangyuan forcibly suppressed this thought; he knew the price of this dish: 18888.

There were eight more dishes on the table, each priced at around 20,000 yuan, bringing the total cost of the meal to nearly 200,000 yuan.

This one meal was enough to eat up half a year's income for him.

What alarmed him even more was the open bottle of brandy on the table.

The rich aroma of the wine tickled his heart, but he dared not look at it a second time, for fear that he would lose control of his facial expression.

Chen Fangyuan could only keep reminding himself: Don't think about it, that's two years' salary for you.

On the other side, Qin Jianjun, who had just finished drinking brandy, clicked his tongue twice, his face as red as a monkey's bottom.

This thing is powerful!

Suddenly, he noticed Qin Zheng's gaze, paused for a moment, then subconsciously tilted his head, looking at his father with a blank expression, as if asking, "Huh?"

Qin Jianjun was very happy. Today he bought a luxury car and a manor. Before he knew it, he was drunk and didn't pay any attention to his appearance.

Looking at his eldest brother's silly appearance, Qin Zheng was both angry and amused, and shook his head helplessly.

What else can you do but spoil your own child?

He looked at Qin Zhaolin and said gently, "Eldest daughter-in-law, this snow lotus is good for beauty and health, eat more of it."

Zhao Lin nodded quickly, smiling as she gestured to the waiter beside her to put a few more pieces on her plate, her tone respectful and gentle: "Thank you for your concern, Dad."

"We're family, no need for such formalities."

Qin Zheng waved his hand, picked up his glass and took a small sip. The brandy was smooth and refreshing on the palate, and the aftertaste was intense, with a kick that went straight to his head.

No wonder the eldest brother blushed and looked confused.

He was starting to feel the strain.

Qin Jianjun, watching his father and Zhao Lin's conversation, finally realized what was going on, "Oh, right, wife, eat more."

He looked at the waiter next to Zhao Lin and said urgently, "Quickly, fill my wife's bowl big!"

After saying that, he picked up his small wine glass and clinked it against Qin Mao's flushed face again.

The two of them finished it in one gulp, smacking their lips and exhaling, "Wow, that's powerful!"

The waiter asked softly, and after receiving Zhao Lin's approval, immediately served her a full bowl of aged mackerel belly stewed with snow lotus, as instructed by Qin Jianjun.

Seeing that the time was right, the chef continued his introduction.

"The Supreme Double-Whip Cordyceps and Fish Maw Soup uses 30-year-old wild golden coin turtle whip as the main ingredient, paired with adult yak whip cultivated in a simulated wild environment, and supplemented with first-harvest cordyceps from Yushu, Qinghai..."

Qin Zheng paused, his hand holding the food in his chopsticks froze. Bullwhip?

This dish, it can't be...

Before he could think it through, the chef's voice continued.

"Consuming this can warm the kidneys and strengthen yang, replenish essence and marrow..."

Aphrodisiac!

Sure enough.

Qin Zheng glanced at Qin Jianjun and Qin Mao, pointed at them, and said with a wicked smile, "Fill this dish to the brim for them, and don't leave a single drop of soup."

Qin Zheng glanced at Qin Zihao, who was trying hard to suppress his laughter, and laughed heartily, "And my eldest grandson, give him a bowl of soup too, to nourish his body."

Qin Zihao was dumbfounded.

He hasn't even fired a single magazine yet... Will eating this cause him to be too weak to handle the nutrients?

Before Qin Jianjun and Qin Mao could react, the bowl in front of them was already filled with a small mountain of bullwhips.

The two were not paying attention and had no idea what was so special about the dish.

Hearing Qin Zheng personally instruct people to serve them food, the two were somewhat flattered, thinking it was Qin Zheng's way of showing them care.

"Hey, thank you, Dad!"

Qin Jianjun took a bite, and the taste was alright.

Noticing Zhao Lin's shy request, he made another "Hmm?" expression, leaned closer, and whispered, "Honey, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"

Zhao Lin gave her husband a reproachful look, then picked up her bowl and spoon and sipped her beauty and health soup.

She couldn't very well tell Qin Jianjun, "Dad served you this dish; it's an aphrodisiac."

She cares about her reputation.

At the same time, eight men in suits arrived outside Lung King Heen.

The leader was named Tian Dagui, who was in the trade business in Jiangnan Province and ran a medium-sized enterprise with a net worth of over 500 million yuan.

A business deal we discussed last week with a major client came to their company today for further discussions. The negotiations are almost complete, and barring any unforeseen circumstances, the contract should be signed and stamped tonight.

As the host, Tian Dagui felt he should treat them well. So, after discussing the contract details, he took the other party's team and his own company's manager to the most luxurious commercial venue in Jiangnan Province, the Emperor's Palace, for dinner.

"Welcome to Emperor Dragon View Pavilion, please come in." Manager Li Wei personally greeted them and led them to a private room.

Tian Dagui glanced at the private room's decor, then beckoned Li Wei to him. "The VIP room? Are you looking down on me? Take me to the Supreme Room 1."

Li Wei smiled respectfully and explained in a low voice, "Mr. Tian, ​​I'm so sorry, but we have guests at the Supreme No. 1 restaurant who are still eating, and we don't know when they'll finish."

After he finished speaking, he advised Tian Dagui again: "President Tian, ​​the dishes in the Tianzi private room and the Supreme No. 1 private room are the same, so they are pretty much the same. Besides, opening the Supreme No. 1 private room requires a fee of 200,000 yuan, which is enough for your expenses in the Tianzi private room."

Upon hearing this, Tian Dagui glared at Li Wei and said, "Do you think I'm short of 200,000? Every time I come here, I sit in the VIP room. Haven't I spent enough at your place? Go, tell them to leave now. Tell them I'll cover their expenses."

Li Wei was immediately embarrassed. Tian Dagui had always been a regular at their Longjingxuan restaurant, and he always insisted on sitting in the VIP No. 1 seat. But now there was someone in the room, and Chen Fangyuan was personally entertaining him, so he must be a distinguished guest.

Both of them were members who could access the fifteenth floor, and he didn't want to see Tian Dagui and the other party get into a conflict.

Li Wei forced a smile and bowed, saying, "Why don't you sit down for a while, Mr. Tian? I'll get the Supreme No. 1 ready for you as soon as we finish eating over there."

The client and his team overheard the conversation between Tian Dagui and Li Wei, and stood aside quietly awaiting the host Tian Dagui's final decision.

Should we sit in the top-tier private room, or go to the VIP room number one?

"Pull up the bill over there and take a look." Tian Dagui didn't want to stand there like a customer for so long, and he was also worried about offending important people. He wanted to see the bill to assess the other party's identity.

Helpless, Li Wei could only take out his phone and show Tian Dagui the charges for that private room.

"Five people, eight dishes, a bottle of brandy, 1.52 million."

With this amount of money, his net worth is probably only around 100 million, Tian Dagui scoffed.

"Go tell them that I've booked Longjingxuan until evening, and that they should leave now."
