Li Qian, like her two colleagues, also works in a design firm.
The three of them were talking about the big things that happened in Kingsoft after Tencent Film Group moved its headquarters to Kingsoft.
The funds spent on the construction of the headquarters alone exceeded 60 billion yuan, which shows that Tencent Pictures is extremely wealthy.
There weren't many people at noon, so Chen Pingsheng didn't have to rush to cook.
He still liked to smoke a Lao Baisha when he had nothing to do, exhaling a little light white smoke, just like most people living here.
Every day I am busy working for some small change.
"Dad, Sister Qian wants to buy you a drink!"
"She invited me to drink, what's the need?"
"It was you who helped her chase that scoundrel away two days ago."
It would be difficult to pursue a stylish urban white-collar worker like Li Qian without some confidence.
But there are those ghost-like young men who like to find a sense of existence in them.
Those who think they are handsome keep pestering each other.
It would be easy for that kind of guy to chase a blonde girl with tattoos, but he would have to be blind to chase a high-ranking white-collar worker in the city.
Chen Pingsheng also didn't like the ghost fire young man who kept hanging around him, so he drove him away.
He wasn't very familiar with Li Qian; she was just an old customer of the store.
Chen Anan likes to chat with her, and the little brat likes to stay next to her and listen openly.
"Master Chen, thank you so much for last time!"
"You're welcome. It's just a small favor."
"Sister Qian, my dad is not just an ordinary chef. He's very capable. If you have anything you can't handle, you can always come to him!"
"You're the only one who likes to brag."
Chen Pingsheng patted her and said that she was so restless even though she was the chief waiter.
Chen Anan wasn't afraid of him. "I'm not bragging. Dad, you're not really thinking you're a chef just because you've been cooking for a few days, are you?"
The conversation between father and daughter was incomprehensible.
This restaurant is also weird. Each table can only have three stir-fried dishes at most.
No connection will be made after exceeding the limit.
Listen, is this the rhythm of trying to run the restaurant well?
I’m afraid of making too much money.
Li Qian didn't understand what they were saying and just felt confused.
It seems that this father is not just a chef, and his daughter is just out for training.
The little kid next to him laughs at everyone he sees.
"Alright, alright, there will be more customers coming soon, clean the table next to you!"
"Isn't that Aunt Pei Yao's job?"
"Don't think I didn't see it. She mopped the floor for you today, so it's your turn to wipe the table."
Chen Anan snorted twice. Her father was really terrible. There were so many people here who needed help, but he didn't help anyone.
There is also a worry-free dream for the destined person.
Are you trying to fool someone?
"Sister Qian, wait a moment, I'll give you some of the tea my dad often drinks."
Chen Anan took out half a pound of her father's Wuyishan Dahongpao, which looked ordinary.
Even if you have money, you can’t drink it.
It is impossible for Li Qian, who is at this level, to know him. If she knew that he had drunk tens of millions of dollars in just a few sips, she would be wrong.
Do you think she will regret it to the core?
The big brat is doing something bad with good intentions again.
Chen Pingsheng was too lazy to care about her. Some things could only be appreciated at their level, and it would be a shame to put them in the hands of strangers.
There is no difference between tea that costs millions of yuan per pound and tea that costs tens of yuan per pound.
Moreover, she also used a red plastic bag to pack them in bulk.
What a waste of resources! Doesn't she know that the annual production of this kind of tea is extremely limited?
Even though he is so rich, he can't buy as much as he wants.
Many of them are used as offerings.
So casual.
Every time Li Qian comes here to eat, she often receives some inexplicable gifts.
Last time it was red wine, this time it was small tea leaves packed in plastic bags.
Regardless of whether it is cheap or not, she still has to thank the person for his kindness.
After she finished eating, she said thank you three times in a row before leaving.
Chen Pingsheng stood at the door, looking at Big Brat expressionlessly. "Chen Anan, what if she accidentally left these tea leaves to mold, or if one day she suddenly opened the red wine you gave her and drank a little and found out it was worth a million, how would she feel?"
"What else could I be feeling? Of course I'm excited."
"Childish." Chen Pingsheng said, "People will just feel like they've lost millions and feel so heartbroken that they can't breathe."
"Um...will it?"
Chen Anan looked confused, "Shouldn't she be happy?"
"Naive! If you gave her something worth a few hundred or a thousand dollars, she would definitely be happy. But if she drank something worth millions without knowing it, she would probably cry for three days and three nights."
Chen Anan turned to look at Aunt Pei Yao. Could it really be like that?
Jiang Peiyao nodded affirmatively. If it were her in the past, she would definitely cry for a month.
This is enough to buy a small villa in my hometown.
When giving something as a gift, the more expensive it is, the better it is not necessarily.
A bottle of Romanee-Conti and an iPhone are placed in the same place, and it is obvious that the iPhone is more exciting.
At least that's the case in this place.
Chen Anan snorted twice and she didn't believe it.
Good intentions can also lead to bad consequences.
Li Qian's home here is quite decent, a one-bedroom, one-living room, one kitchen and one bathroom in an area of over 50 square meters.
The decoration is quite exquisite, and clothes are dried on the small balcony.
If you want a house like this in the center of Shanghai, don't even think about it unless you pay 4,000 or 5,000 yuan a month.
It’s only fifteen hundred here.
In order to save a few thousand in rent, she would rather run a few more hours a day.
One of her two colleagues was her senior, and the person who introduced her to the firm.
One is her junior sister, who just graduated.
The junior sister was so envious of her living conditions that she wanted to move in with her.
Or you can rent a similar small house here.
Who lives in a village in the city if it's not to save money?
For 1,500 yuan in the city, not to mention a separate kitchen, bathroom and balcony, it’s considered good if it can be properly ventilated.
She has nothing good to offer.
There are also some fruit drinks in the small refrigerator, as well as the iced watermelon that is indispensable in summer.
Li Qian used it all to entertain them.
She also took out the bottle of red wine that she had casually placed under the table.
Her senior is different from her. She is a real city girl.
I have been working in a large company for some years, so how could I not know some luxury brands?
"Hey... where did you get that fake bottle of Conti? It's quite exquisitely made."
It is easy to recognize the wine of Conti, as the outer bottles are almost all of the same packaging.
Different years mean different prices.
Romanee-Conti became popular in recent years because of the line "Please drink Romanee-Conti" in Stephen Chow's movie The Mermaid.
It was from that time that it became well-known.
Li Qian didn't recognize it, mainly because she rarely drank red wine and had only heard about it a few times from her colleagues.
"It was either bought by me or given to me by that little girl just now."
"If it's a gift from her, it probably won't be a good one."
There is no way that the free gifts from a restaurant can be good stuff. Most normal people would think so.
Since she was bored, Li Qian opened it. The process was quite complicated.
Some professional tools are required.
She doesn't have professional wine glasses, but she has a few glass cups.
The senior sister shook the glass. This time, not only the outer packaging looked exquisite, but the wine inside also looked exquisite.
She still likes to drink this stuff, mainly because her mother likes it.
A retired old lady.
That doesn't matter. Do you think she can enter a big company just by graduating and become a manager in less than two years?
She is average, but her brother is the one who is given the most attention in the family.
Entered the judicial unit.
The salary is not high but the status is high. If you work hard for more than ten years, it would be very impressive if you can be promoted to the department level before the age of 40.
Even a deputy director is impressive.
If a deputy director of the Magic City is transferred to another place, he will also start at the director level.
What does it mean to be at the deputy director level? The head of a county.
The county secretary is here.
With her background, she is willing to support Li Qian, which shows that she has good character.
Most people look down on outsiders like Li Qian.
"Why does this wine look a bit like the real thing? Is our country's counterfeiting technology so advanced?"
The senior student frowned slightly, and Li Qian couldn't taste anything.
Besides being unpalatable, it's still unpalatable.
"How much is a bottle of real Conti?" Li Qian asked.
"The cheapest is 40,000 or 50,000 yuan, and the highest is several million yuan. That one is from 1990."
The senior student replied, "This bottle of yours definitely doesn't look fake. Let's put the cap back on first. I'll ask someone and we'll know."
The senior student took a picture of her and sent it to her friend who specializes in selling red wine.
Let me also talk about the taste issue.
Someone like her who drinks red wine regularly can definitely taste it.
Only people like Li Qian who don't drink it would find it unpalatable.
This is what happens when good things don't fall into the hands of the people they should be in. Antiques can also be used as chamber pots.
Her friend left a message saying wait a minute, he will be there soon.
After a while, someone arrived.
"This is... a genuine 1990 Romanée-Conti. This is the king of red wines. Would you be willing to drink this kind of wine?"
The visitor was also confused. Aren’t wines that cost millions per bottle meant to be collected as treasures?
How could they bear to drink it?
“Are you sure this is 1990 Conti?”
"I'm absolutely sure. With this bottle, this purity, and this taste, how can any other wine replace it?"
"Okay, let me take it easy."
Although the drink was not hers, she was still heartbroken and couldn't breathe.
I always feel like I can drink half a Ferrari with just two sips.
This is too fucking outrageous.
If she knew this was 1990 Chateau-Conti, she would never drink it.
There are no such conditions.
Li Qian asked silently, "Is this expensive?"
"That depends on who they are. People like Xu Daibei, Teacher Ma, and the big boss of Tengying Group can drink them like water. For us, even a sip would be a waste of the gift of heaven."
What a pity! Once opened, the bottle of Conti is worthless.
It is impossible to resell it. Who can afford to drink this kind of wine and buy a bottle that is left over from someone else?
If someone can't afford it, he still won't be able to buy it even if you praise it as the Queen Mother's nectar.
"Looking at the way you look, it's impossible that you bought this. Where did you get it from? Can you take me to get a bottle?"
"First, tell me how much this is worth?"
Li Qian still insisted on asking for the actual price.
"If you don't open the bottle, I'll definitely be willing to take it back for 1.2 million yuan a bottle."
One million and two hundred thousand???
Li Qian simply collapsed on the sofa, and this time the word "heartache" could not be used to describe her feelings.
Instead, he wanted to slap himself twice.
Tears suddenly came out.
"You haven't told me where you picked it up from?"
He would have turned the garbage dump upside down to find a bottle of wine like 1990 Conti.
Looking at the expressions of these three women, it was obvious that they had no idea that the wine they drank would be so valuable.
If they were given a chance, they would definitely take it and exchange it for money.
Wouldn’t it be nice to have more than one million in your hand?
What are you drinking? There's nothing in your stomach.
The senior student said, "I said a little girl gave it to me during dinner. Do you believe me?"
"I don't quite believe it." I guess only a fool would believe it.
The senior student herself didn't quite believe it. "Then look at this tea. The little girl said this is what her father often drinks."
tea?
It was just packed in a red plastic bag.
There is quite a lot in there, probably weighing several taels.
Dahongpao is not expensive.
The tea produced by the mother tree of Dahongpao is the most expensive among the most expensive ones.
During the Ming Dynasty, a scholar who went to Beijing to take the imperial examination accidentally drank a cup of Dahongpao tea. He felt refreshed and his ideas burst forth.
As a result, he went to Beijing to take the exam and was successfully admitted.
The scholar returned to Wuyi Mountain and personally hung the imperially bestowed Dahongpao on this tea tree.
The tea tree was named "Da Hong Pao" and the tea produced from this tree became a tribute to the imperial court.
Since the Ming and Qing Dynasties, tea from Wuyi Mountain has been extremely expensive. Its wonderful taste of rocky bones and floral fragrance is unmatched by tea from other regions.
Dahongpao tea can be brewed nine times and still have a rich tea aroma, while ordinary tea can only be brewed three times at most.
Tea is precious and tea trees are scarce.
Therefore, these trees have become national key protected plants.
As early as the Republic of China period, the government sent soldiers to protect these Dahongpao mother trees day and night.
Since then, Wuyishan mother tree Dahongpao has become extremely rare on the market.
It generally does not flow into the market, and even if it does, it will be priced at an extremely high price.
"Fuck, this is actually the Red Robe mother tree tea..."
The young wine shop owner was completely shocked, and his hands holding the red plastic bag were filled with shock.
"Red Robe Mother Tree Tea, this is impossible, right?"
"What's impossible? This is 100% authentic mother tree tea!"
The wine shop owner is quite knowledgeable, as he himself is in the luxury goods recycling business.
How can you not recognize these things?
"I'm really curious now. What kind of restaurant did you go to for dinner that people gave you these things?"
The senior student said, "There's a new Wuyou restaurant that just opened in this village in the city. The management is weird. It's a large restaurant with only three people working. Furthermore, they only serve three tables at most. You can't order more than that."
"That little girl kept talking about her dad. Did he really think he was a chef? He acted like he was someone important."
"This isn't just a big deal, it's definitely a huge deal."
The wine shop owner said, "He can let his daughter give away 1990 Conti so easily, and can even give away the mother tree Red Robe tea so easily. Her father still drinks this tea. He must be a billionaire with a net worth of at least tens of billions."
The senior student was puzzled. "That's impossible. How could a boss of this status become a chef?"
"Don't use our thinking to think about people of this level."
The wine shop owner shook his head and said, "Besides, he's probably not just an ordinary billionaire, he's most likely a top business tycoon in Shanghai. It's summer vacation now, maybe he's just doing this to educate his own children."
"It's not impossible."
How could someone who can give away Conti so easily and drink mother tree Hongpao on a daily basis be an ordinary chef?
"That's not the case. We just went there for a meal, and we ran into a boss like this?"
“Who can tell clearly what’s going on in this world?”
The young boss of the red wine shop said, “I don’t know if you’ve heard about what happened in Shacheng. The grandmother of the big boss of Tengying Group was attacked by a black-hearted doctor. Not only did she lose her money, but she also lost her life.
"After the news reached Shanghai, the stock market was extremely volatile. To stabilize the market, Tencent Film announced on the spot that they would allocate tens of billions of yuan in funds and buy back as much as others sold.
"The Tengying Group's boss hasn't participated in any public events since returning to Shanghai. He only disappeared after spending over 10 billion yuan to buy thousands of acres of commercial and residential land in Jinshan.
"A lot of people were wondering where he was, and there was a little gossip from his wife.
"To put it in the words of ordinary people like us, this big boss took his daughter down to gain experience.
"And his daughter happens to be called An An."
"You don't think it's such a coincidence, do you?"
The senior student was stunned, her eyes blinked unconsciously twice, and the corners of her mouth trembled wildly.
Is it such a coincidence?
The big boss of Tengying personally serves as her chef, and she can brag about it from her early thirties to her seventies and eighties.
He can even brag in front of his grandson.
As for Li Qian standing aside, she thought about it carefully and suddenly felt that it was very likely.
There is a trace of everything.
Summer vacation is here, and a worry-free restaurant suddenly opens in the urban village.
There was no preparation and no publicity.
It didn't hire anyone, so it let its daughter work as a waitress in the store.
Moreover, the female store manager is a little too pretty.
Call Master Chen brother-in-law.
With such good looks, she would be the best in the entertainment industry. How could she be willing to be a waiter in a small restaurant?
Every day I either serve food or clean.
Once he said that, everything became clear.
The three women looked at each other, wondering if it was such a coincidence.
They happened to meet on the way the boss came down to the mortal world.
What kind of luck is this? (End of this chapter)
