He transformed from a fierce tiger pillar into a martial saint.

Furong gazed at Chuyang, her eyes sparkling with beauty.

"That Miss Yunting is truly fortunate to have won Young Master Chu's favor."

Chu Yang listened to Meng De and Feng Zixian's words with a clear understanding.

These two probably thought that after inviting Wang Yunting over, they would still be the ones getting ripped off, and they would deliberately try to impress Wang Yunting, only to end up paying the bill themselves.

What a pity! That was in the past!

Chu Yang pointed to the gold-embossed menu and said, "My two senior brothers, you've gone to such lengths for me; I'm truly humbled!"

Feng Zixian shook his head: "Junior Brother Chu, your Senior Brother Meng just said that Miss Yunting will also be coming. We can't let her be left out!"

"It's our business as your senior brothers spending money, why do you have to worry about it so much!"

"Miss Furong, could you please give our Junior Brother Chu a proper introduction to those signature dishes so he can choose..."

Before Furong could respond, Chu Yang placed the gold-embossed menu on the table: "Since my two senior brothers are so hospitable and have invited Miss Yunting to come, then we won't make any selections. Bring all six of their signature dishes!"

A look of joy appeared on Furong's face: "It's truly enviable that Young Master Chu is so generous for that Miss Yunting."

"Please wait a moment. In half an hour at most, our six signature dishes will be served to you."

Next.

Chu Yang chatted with Feng Zixian and Meng De for a while.

Soon, the six signature dishes of Yanyulou were served one after another.

Each signature dish is covered with a lid; once the lid is lifted, a fragrant aroma immediately fills the entire room and hits you right in the face.

Furong introduced, "Gentlemen, the first dish is our Misty Rain Pavilion's signature dish, called Nine-Turned Jade Marrow Spirit Fish Soup."

"The broth is made by simmering the bone marrow of the spirit fish, then pan-frying the fish belly meat over a low flame, and adding eight kinds of medicinal herbs that promote blood circulation and relax muscles."

Upon hearing that this was made by the spirit fish, Chu Yang couldn't help but take a closer look.

This dish has an irresistible aroma and a golden broth, making it incredibly tempting to the taste buds.

Then, Fu Rong introduced the next three signature dishes.

After saying that, Furong said, "The remaining two signature dishes need to be kept at a certain temperature to have the best taste."

"I just heard that Young Master Chu is going to entertain someone he admires. Do you think we should warm up those two signature dishes before serving them?"

Chu Yang saw the four signature dishes already on the table, none of which he had ever tasted before. Moreover, they were all ingredients with effects no less than spirit fish meat. If he consumed them, he could have a good time cultivating when he returned home tonight, and probably improve his progress by four or five points.

If we ate a couple more of their signature dishes, the effect would probably be even better.

At this moment, Meng De smiled and said, "Miss Furong is right..."

Chu Yang waved his hand and said, "Alright. Let's bring out the other two signature dishes as well!"

"If we wait for Miss Yunting to come again, we might as well order more! What do you two senior brothers think?"

Feng Zixian and Meng De laughed and said, "Junior Brother Chu, you're the main character today, so you get to call the shots!"

"Furong, just as our Junior Brother Chu said, bring the remaining two signature dishes to the table immediately!"

These two men were fond of good food and had accumulated a lot of gambling debts, so they hadn't had the chance to taste such delicacies in a long time and were eager to try them as soon as possible.

Moreover, Chu Yang's current magnanimity is just like how he acted like a big shot in front of Wang Yunting back then. In this way, although they are nominally hosting this time, they will definitely find various ways to make Chu Yang pay the bill in the end!

Furong immediately arranged for the remaining two signature dishes to be delivered to Chu Yang's room, and then she left.

The last two dishes were called Eight Treasures Bodhi Stew and Braised Black Bear Paw.

This Eight Treasures Bodhi Stew is not a meat dish, but rather a stew made with eight kinds of edible medicinal herbs. It has a colorful appearance and a refreshing aroma.

The braised black bear paw is made with the paw of a wild black bear. Black bears have extremely rich blood and energy, making them a top-quality food for replenishing blood and energy.

These six signature dishes are priced at around one hundred taels of silver.

In the Great Liang Dynasty, which was plagued by natural disasters and internal and external troubles, one hundred taels of silver was enough for countless ordinary families at the bottom of society to live on for three years!

Feng Zixian also ordered the finest wine here—Peach Blossom Wine.

Chu Yang said, "My two senior brothers, you know I can't hold my liquor. Tomorrow, Master will personally teach me Tiger Roar Fist, and it wouldn't be appropriate if I reeked of alcohol. I'll drink tea instead!"

Meng De smiled and nodded, saying, "Junior Brother Chu, I'll go along with you this time. However, as your senior brother, I still have to remind you that you need to work on your drinking capacity. After all, times have changed!"

"You are now a Ming Jin martial artist, and you can take up temporary posts in other places. When you are on temporary posts, you will inevitably come into contact with some powerful and influential families. It is unavoidable to socialize and drink with them. If you maintain good relationships, you will naturally be able to obtain more resources."

Chu Yang did not refute: "Senior Brother Meng is absolutely right. I will gradually increase my alcohol tolerance in the future."

Feng Zixian and Meng De were quite satisfied with the table full of fine wine and delicacies.

The three of them then began to toast each other.

Chu Yang himself doesn't drink alcohol, but he quietly savors the delicious food.

"These meats and dishes are indeed very nutritious."

As the tender and succulent meat entered his mouth, its aroma filled the air, and a warm current surged through his limbs and bones. Chu Yang immediately felt his blood and energy replenished, his whole body relaxed, as if filled with indescribable strength, and he couldn't wait to immediately unleash a set of boxing techniques to express it.

After a few rounds of drinks...

Feng Zixian said with a smile, "Junior Brother Chu, I'll go and invite Wang Yunting over now. However, it's not quite right for us to have only leftovers. How about we order some more dishes?"

Chu Yang nodded: "Of course. I'll go find Miss Furong to add more dishes for us."

Upon hearing Chu Yang's words, both Feng Zixian and Meng De beamed with joy.

In their view, Chu Yang was starting to get carried away. He would definitely secretly pay the bill, and might even thank them extra by hiring a singer for each of them.

After saying that, Chu Yang went outside and headed towards the accounting desk of Yanyu Tower.

"Miss Furong, could you please go find my two senior brothers? We might need to order more dishes."

"As for other matters at home that require my return, please inform Miss Furong as well."

Looking at Chu Yang's handsome face, Fu Rong naturally had no suspicions. She nodded and said, "Please rest assured, Young Master Chu, I will definitely convey your message."

Then, Chu Yang walked out of the Misty Rain Pavilion.

"If these two give up now, that's fine. But if not..."

Chu Yang pondered to himself.

As soon as I stepped outside, I saw several people exchanging greetings and saying goodbye.

A middle-aged man, with a slight smell of alcohol on his face, was being supported by two alluring women.

This man was Zhang Yuping, the coroner of the county government.

The person who hosted the banquet was Wei Yixiao, one of the three hall masters under the Flying Eagle Gang, along with his two trusted confidants.
