This unique way of setting up a stall is practically a speed bump for pedestrians.
Passersby who were drawn to Lin Zhou's appearance took a step back when they got closer and saw the prices written on the blackboard, as if they had received a huge shock.
"Holy crap, how much? Boss, did you add an extra zero?"
"The king of steaks in Shanghai is only 2300 yuan a piece, and you're selling a steak and a glass of red wine for 3000 yuan?"
Lin Zhou didn't expect to attract passersby so quickly.
He was busy setting up his stall and didn't ask Huang Zhenghao about the specific cost of the ingredients. He just searched online for the approximate price of top-grade steak and randomly picked a number.
When Lin Zhou had a certain amount of money, he found that he became less sensitive to prices.
To be honest, he doesn't know how to do business, and he doesn't know how to calculate costs or anything like that.
As long as I don't work for free and don't lose money, that's fine.
Is this price expensive?
Lin Zhou originally wanted to set a higher price, but he was afraid that no one would buy it, and he would be the only one embarrassed by being surrounded by onlookers.
"Look at the quality of this steak, top-quality ingredients flown in from the air, 1999 Lafite."
Lin Zhou took a whole aged steak out of the box, showing off the superior cut of the ingredient. He wanted to introduce it further, but then realized he had forgotten the brand that Huang Zhenghao had mentioned during his introduction.
I can only give a brief introduction.
Without the long description of the brand, he suddenly felt that the ingredients weren't so high-end anymore.
But most people can tell the difference between a good and bad steak.
The texture of this meat is indeed different from that of regular steak; the difference is quite obvious.
Upon hearing this explanation, the expressions on the passersby's faces became even more indescribable.
A roadside stall, and you're air-freighting ingredients, like 1999 Lafite?
Who would believe it's true?
Three thousand yuan is almost a month's salary for some people.
A single meal can cost a month's salary?
Fortunately, it's too expensive for the average person, and the owner still has some conscience and doesn't rip off the poor.
The passersby stopped talking and simply turned around and left.
The other passersby who had been drawn in stopped and watched.
This price deterred everyone.
Looking at the time, it was already lunchtime, and no customers had come in, so Lin Zhou decided to make himself a steak to try first.
Take a whole piece of aged steak, cut a slice about 2 centimeters thick, and remove the brown crust around the edges.
When a steak is properly aged, the inside is red, while the brown parts on the outside are inedible.
What remains is the edible essence.
Although it was raw steak, there was no trace of blood in it; instead, it had a subtle aroma.
The better the ingredients, the less seasoning they need. Just sprinkle some salt on them, heat the baking pan until it smokes, spray some olive oil on them, and start frying.
The high temperature stimulated the steak, causing it to sizzle.
Two minutes of searing on one side is enough. Flip it over and you'll see that the charred surface of the steak is beautifully done.
Then add a piece of butter to melt and enhance the flavor. The aroma of the beef and the aroma of the butter blend together, creating a rich and savory flavor.
Passersby who were deterred by the high prices naturally couldn't resist the novelty of the stall.
I picked up my phone and started filming. I saw Lin Zhou grilling steak, so I recorded the process to share with my friends.
I immediately sent the recorded video to my friend.
"Hey sis, I saw a handsome guy in a suit and tie selling steak and wine at a street stall in Times Square. Guess how much it cost? Three thousand dollars a serving!!!"
"The key point is, watching him make steak actually made my mouth water; it smelled so good!"
The friend who received the shared video immediately sent three exclamation marks after watching it.
"!!!"
"Whose young master is this, out dabbling in this?"
"That suit is GUCCI, probably a custom-made one, the watch is Patek Philippe, and the brooch is Chanel."
The fashion-challenged young woman, just looking at the brand her friend sent her, felt it was very expensive. When she looked up at Lin Zhou again, her eyes were filled with shock.
Holy crap!
What kind of novel plot is this? Rich people setting up stalls?
As the city's most famous luxury commercial district, Mingzhu Times Square has many discerning customers.
Lin Zhou was able to attract a crowd so quickly not only because of his unique way of setting up his stall, but also because of his expensive outfit.
With clothes and accessories worth tens of millions of yuan, how could he be out selling goods on the street?
Are they still selling steaks that cost 3,000 yuan a serving?
Anyone with a discerning eye would think this is a wealthy person doing charity.
But even though I know good stuff, I still can't bring myself to spend that much money on a steak.
Until a rich second-generation heir drove by in a sports car saw a group of people surrounding a roadside stall, thought there was something interesting to see, parked his car and followed them over.
Then I saw Lin Zhou standing behind the stall, eating steak with disposable plastic utensils.
His first thought wasn't that the boss was crazy, dressed so formally in a suit to set up a stall.
What kind of disposable cutlery is so useful that it can even cut steak?
A wobbly plastic wine glass?
This combination really piqued his curiosity.
They immediately walked up to Lin Zhou's stall.
Now I can look at it much more carefully.
I also saw the prices marked on the small blackboard on the table.
"No, bro, what are you thinking? I may have money, but I'm not stupid. You wouldn't dare charge this much for a roadside stall, would you?"
When Lin Zhou saw a guest arrive, he elegantly took out a tissue, wiped his mouth, and then spoke.
"Absolutely great value for money, money back guarantee if you don't like it, culinary masterclass, world-class music, you deserve it."
Rich second generation: ......
Then he saw a line of small print below the price: a complimentary musical instrument performance is included with the meal.
Goodness, if it weren't for the wrong location, he would have thought he was in that upscale Western restaurant.
"You said it's free if it doesn't taste good?"
To be honest, the rich kid was indeed intrigued. Three thousand isn't much, so he figured he might as well give it a try and satisfy his curiosity.
"Give me one."
Seeing that a customer had come in, Lin Zhou stopped pretending and directly gave him the remaining half of the steak, which he forked and ate in two bites, and also downed the red wine in the plastic wine glass in one gulp.
Once their stomachs were full, they started working.
The onlookers, seeing that a real scoundrel was ordering food, became even more engrossed in watching.
Not only did he watch it himself, but he also invited his friends to watch it together.
Lin Zhou threw the used disposable tableware into the trash can, took out the whole aged steak, and cut off a slice.
When the rich kid saw Lin Zhou bring out a whole steak, he nodded. If the portion was large, three thousand a piece wasn't expensive.
Then I saw the boss cut off only one slice and put the rest of the beef back up!
It's such a big piece, and you only give me one slice?
It's not even thick-cut!
The rich kid's eyes widened as he watched Lin Zhou cut around the edges, making the steak even smaller.
Then I started frying it.
"Three thousand yuan, and you only give me one piece?"
"No, there's also a glass of red wine."
......
