24 Truffle Safari

The ever-changing capital market is thrown aside, and Lin Yilong needs to go to eat roast duck with the Yeon sisters who have just finished visiting the Forbidden City.

There is such an interesting fact that eating roast duck in Yanjing is that tourists go to the famous Quanjude, while most people in Beijing go to eat cheap houses.

Lin Yilong is not a foodie, he can't say what is the difference between the two restaurants, and after weighing it, he didn't go to either of them, and went to a Liqun roast duck restaurant that has been recommended by old classmates to experience roast duck and Hutong culture.

The Yeon sisters are not very comfortable with the alleys of the LC district, the streets that are too close to each other, the low streets, and the stinking sewer pipes due to the low air pressure, all of which make them feel like they are back in the West End of London, where Vera once lived.

Although there were a lot of Westerners who came here to eat, and the three of them ordered two or three dishes, perhaps the previous expectations were too high, and the contrast with the environment on the road overshadowed the quality of the dinner, the Yeon sisters did not feel any good evaluation, and just wanted to finish the meal quickly and leave the place.

Seeing that the Yeang sisters were eating like chewing wax, Lin Yilong hastily ended the dinner and led them back to the hotel. In the hotel restaurant, went to eat the buffet dinner of this hotel.

Now the sisters can have a good dinner.

"Yilong, why are you taking me to eat that roast duck?" asked Nadia angrily as she sipped the soup.

"Don't you want to know about Yanjing's hutong culture?" Lin Yilong said in a euphemistic tone, "That's it." ”

"What kind of hutong culture is that, it's obviously the culture of the slums. "It's the kind of place that doesn't have much culture like the East End of London and the southeast of Moscow." ”

"I admit yes. Lin Yilong thought about it, it was really difficult for him to explain to Nadia and Vera what Hutong culture was, if he thought about it carefully, it seemed that Nadia had such a point.

It has indeed experienced a lot of twists and turns from the chaos to the present, but in general, most of the Hutong population in Yanjing has migrated to residential buildings. However, more than a decade later, when the price of land here has skyrocketed, the residents of Hutong, who had been eager to relocate, are not so anxious. If today's Yanjing people miss the hutong culture, it is better to say that they miss the past of living here, if they do not consider the housing prices, let them give up the apartment of more than ten square meters per capita and move into the Hutong board house of more than ten square meters for a family of three, of course, it is unwilling.

"Then are you willing to eat hot pot?" Lin Yilong asked, he couldn't think of the Beijing system that could interest the Yeang sisters for a while, as the capital, the special dishes that Lin Yilong could think of were localized roast duck and mutton shabu, at most a water belly, not that there were no other delicacies, but desserts and the like could not replace the main meal.

"No, wouldn't it be better for me to make you boiled meat?" Nadia shook her head.

Now I find that there are too few Chinese foods that can make Nadia and Vera adapt, maybe they may like Huaiyang cuisine or Zhejiang cuisine, and Lu cuisine can also be satisfied, but after all, it is not their daily meal, and it is a little difficult to adapt.

If this continues, in the entire mainland, except for hotel restaurants and some Russian restaurants, the Yeon sisters will have to eat McDonald's and KFC to survive.

Just when Lin Yilong felt helpless about the Yeang sisters' catering in Beijing, someone interrupted his thinking.

"Mr. Lin!" a middle-aged man in business clothes appeared in front of Lin Yilong, although he couldn't call his name exactly, Lin Yilong remembered that this face appeared in a private room of a restaurant in Leicester Square.

"Hello, forgive me for my poor memory and forgetting what to call you, but I know we met in London. Lin Yilong said politely.

"Please call me Liang Wenge. The people who came didn't expect Lin Yilong to say his name accurately, and introduced himself.

"It's Mr. Liang, it's a pleasure. Lin Yilong felt a little enchanted, his journey tried to avoid possible people, according to the relatively highest standard to arrange the trip from Heathrow to Yanjing, he could still meet these people, "What can I do for you?"

"Can I talk to you alone?" Liang Wenge looked at Sister Yeang, who was staring at him with curious eyes, and said to Lin Yilong.

"I'm sorry, I'm on a tight schedule, so if there's anything you want to talk about, let's talk here. Lin Yilong refused to chat privately, there were very few people in the restaurant, and there was nothing wrong with chatting here.

"Okay, I'll just get to the point. When Ms. Tao introduced your background, I knew that you were running a forest farm in Wales. "I wonder if we can cooperate in other areas?"

"My price was already clear when I said it that day, nothing changed. "Liang Wenge is just a truffle middleman, Lin Yilong doesn't need to be polite to him at all, after all, it's just impossible business dealings.

"In addition to the white truffle sale, I just want to arrange a slightly more advanced truffle safari, which is attended by dignitaries and dignitaries, and each guest brings about 500 pounds of ticket revenue to the forest farm. "I'm now in Witshire, and I'm doing a similar truffle-themed trip. ”

Maybe the farmers of Witshire can make extra money from such a tertiary industry, or rather, Liang Wenge is used to dealing with these farmers who don't have much money, and feels that Lin Yilong must miss such an opportunity.

Although Lin Yilong likes money, it does not mean that he wants to turn his home into a public hunting ground. If he really wants to make money from the Bracken Forest Farm, he can make the entire forest farm into a high-level forest conservation area, and the annual tax-free subsidy alone can reach 2 million pounds in an instant, where is there any need for this Mr. Liang in front of him to make noise here.

Another example of a failed negotiation that confidently starts without doing your homework.

"In other words, I can get a guaranteed income of 2,000 pounds a week at home from August to November without doing anything, right?" In order to let the Yeon sisters understand this example of failure, Lin Yilong specially switched to English, "That is, 32,000 pounds?"

"Yes, if there are many guests on the treasure hunt, we can turn that number into £50,000. Seeing that Lin Yilong began to speak English, Liang Wenge, who didn't know why, also said stupidly in a proficient Courtney accent.

"Then what should I do if my forest farm is affected by the disaster because of your guests?" Lin Yilong asked absentmindedly.

"We will provide full forestry insurance. "Liang Wenge didn't know that he had entered the set," and would provide special personnel to clean it. ”

"Very good, I'm very happy. Lin Yilong said happily, "Please pay 40,000 pounds of forestry insurance and 16,000 pounds of floating insurance in advance." ”
