How much per tael?
"188, 2 taels, minimum order 2 taels!"
Although Ling Yi was somewhat prepared, the price still seemed a bit outrageous to him.
He seemed to sense Ling Yi's shock.
Li Shuang explained, "Two liang (approximately 100 grams), that's two crab meat dumplings."
Although Ling Yi looks like a nouveau riche, he was definitely an ordinary person before.
They're clearly new to these high-end establishments.
But Li Shuang didn't feel disgusted or look down on Ling Yi; on the contrary, she felt very comfortable being with him.
One is that Ling Yi speaks without pretense and is very genuine.
She had met quite a few nouveau riche, and they were all pretty good at putting on airs.
They clearly know nothing, yet they insist on pretending to know everything and Jiang Shan.
That's what truly makes people disgusted and contemptible.
How big can Chiaotzu weighing one ounce be?
Ling Yi was genuinely curious.
He accepted the high price of this huge king crab, after all, it wasn't easy to get his hands on it.
They dare to sell just two crab Chiaotzu for 188 yuan!
"No, we have to try it ourselves to see what's going on."
Give me 20!
Twenty dumplings is the standard number for one Chiaotzu.
In northern China, 20 dumplings are generally enough to make you feel full.
Here, 20 dumplings cost nearly four thousand.
It's expensive, definitely a tax on people's intelligence, but I don't know how much of a tax it is.
"What about crab meat porridge?" Ling Yi asked again.
Li Shuang coughed lightly and said in a low voice, "Sir, please don't order the crab congee today."
As she spoke, she winked at Ling Yi.
Ling Yi instantly understood: crab porridge, not quite the proper thing to do.
Can you tell me?
Li Shuang glanced at the door to the private room, then moved closer to Ling Yi and whispered, "Crab meat dumplings, please. The crab meat is indeed carefully selected."
"Although it's expensive, at least it's clean and I feel safe with it."
"As for the crab congee, you know crab sticks, right?"
Ling Yi nodded, but dared not make any large movements.
Li Shuang was standing so close that Ling Yi could even smell the sweet fragrance emanating from her, which resembled some kind of camellia.
It smells wonderful.
"You mean those crab sticks you get at hot pot or barbecue stalls?"
"Yes, the kind that costs ten yuan for a big bag."
"I don't know who discovered it, but crab porridge made with this stuff is almost indistinguishable from crab porridge made with real crab meat."
"Then, starting last year, crab meat congee was no longer served."
Ling Yi swallowed hard and asked curiously, "So, how much is this bowl of crab porridge?"
"88!"
How big is the bowl?
Li Shuang pointed to the small bowl of dipping sauce next to Ling Yi.
Ugh, what the hell!
That's incredibly lucrative!
A bowl of porridge that costs less than 1 yuan to make, and they're selling it for 88 yuan?!
This profit margin is higher than selling laundry detergent!
Ironically, this 88 yuan is one of the cheaper main dishes on the menu.
"Okay, thank you."
Open your phone's payment QR code.
"Huh?" Li Shuang was taken aback. Why would she need to open a QR code for receiving payments?
"A tip!"
"You really gave it to me."
I find you pleasing to the eye, and I also find you to be honest.
Li Shuang chuckled at these words.
Without any pretense, he took out his phone and opened the payment QR code.
Ding! 10,000 yuan has been deposited into your account Bubble Chat.
"So many?" Li Shuang exclaimed in surprise.
Customers don't usually tip much, even wealthy people rarely do.
Even if they gave it to me, it would only be three or Wu Bai.
The fact that he was given 10,000 yuan made Li Shuang feel like her phone was burning hot.
"It's nothing, I just find you pleasing to the eye."
Since the money came so easily, Ling Yi didn't feel bad about spending it.
With Fanbao around, if Ling Yi were still living a poor life in this world, he might as well just slit his own throat.
As for whether 10,000 yuan is a lot or not.
Is this your first time becoming a nouveau riche? You have no experience.
That's understandable.
"Alright, order crab dumplings."
"Okay!"
Ling Yi initially thought crab meat dumplings were a rip-off, but to her surprise, they tasted unexpectedly good.
Li Shuang explained, "These crab meat dumplings are made with a family recipe that the boss bought from a Gao Clan chef. It's said that the recipe alone cost about this much."
Li Shuang held up one finger.
"One hundred thousand?"
"Too low!"
As Li Shuang spoke, she picked up the teapot beside her and went to pour tea into Ling Yi's empty teacup.
One million?
"It's ten million," Li Shuang said.
"Hiss!" Ling Yi was somewhat surprised. A Chiaotzu recipe cost ten million?
This is outrageous.
Just then, Fanbao's window suddenly popped up.
[Please exit, host!]
A dialog box popped up with the text "Red Cesium".
This is a unique indicator that appears when Combat Mode is activated.
Ling Yi instantly recalled the prediction prompt that Fanbao had given him when he activated Combat Mode earlier.
However, Ling Yi did not back down.
Li Shuang was still feeling a bit lightheaded because of the 10,000 yuan tip.
As a result, he lost his balance and stumbled two steps.
Just then, Ling Yi quickly stood up, supporting the teapot with one hand and catching Li Shuang's falling body with the other.
[This works?]
Fanbao was astonished.
Ling Yi found it amusing. Why not?
It's not like we're going to fight someone, so we have to dodge.
"Sorry, brother!" Li Shuang's face instantly turned red.
He quickly stood up straight and said apologetically.
"Your ten thousand yuan tip really made me feel a little giddy," Li Shuang joked.
Ling Yi couldn't help but chuckle.
This Li Shuang certainly has a very pleasing way of speaking.
If I could keep him by my side, as a secretary or something...
Hmm? Why can't they stay by my side?
We're rich now, and we'll be extremely rich in the future.
Having such a beautiful, sensible, and sweet-talking assistant by your side, wouldn't that be wonderful?
However, there's no rush for this.
After all, they've only just met, and now he's already asking her to come with him.
It might scare people.
Let's talk about it next time.
But at that moment, the door to the private room was pushed open Dali.
A pot-bellied, bald, middle-aged man walked in.
After entering, he went straight to Li Shuang.
As he walked, he pointed at Li Shuang and angrily said, "You, Li Shuang, didn't you tell Laozi your hand was injured and you needed to rest?"
"So, she came here to serve that Little White!"
Li Shuang Shuang's face immediately turned ugly, and he involuntarily took two steps back.
But he still stood in front of Ling Yi.
"Mr. Zhou, I think I've made my meaning very clear: I simply don't want to serve you."
Upon hearing this, Mr. Zhou became even more furious. "What did you say? Do you know the consequences of offending me, Zhou Dahai?"
Li Shuang said angrily, "Fine, I'll quit and go home to farm. What are you going to do about it?"
" Zhou Dahai, do you think I can't see through your little scheme?"
You want me to be your Xiao San? Keep dreaming.
"What, you want to hit me? Let's see if I can scratch you! If I can out-scratch you, I've won; if I can't, I'll extort you to death!"
Ling Yi never expected that Li Shuang had this side to her.
However, Fei Fan did not make Ling Yi dislike him; on the contrary, he appreciated him even more.
" Bao'er, check out this bald guy's information, preferably find some dirt on him. And while you're at it, switch to Combat Mode."
