Chapter 23: The Foodie Club
Midday.
Liu Ming and the others appeared on time, and Wei Ran said hello a little, and then came to the kitchen to get busy.
Ling Lin settled the guests, took a small notebook, and stood behind Wei Ran to carefully record the steps of his cooking, etc.
After a few days, Wei Ran had already become accustomed to Ling Lin standing behind him, and sometimes he would turn his head and tell her what she needed to pay attention to when cooking this dish.
Half an hour later, today's lunch was all ready.
After bringing the food out, Wei Ran went home, and he was going to go out with Liu Ming and them later, and it was not clear where he went, but Wei Ran had just finished cooking, and his whole body was full of the smell of oil smoke, so it would definitely not work to go out like this, so he had to go back to take a shower and change into clean clothes.
After all, Liu Ming is a person with a relatively high status, if Wei Ran is dressed like a dirt bun, it doesn't matter if he is embarrassed, don't hurt others and lose face, so you still need to pay attention to your dress.
After taking a shower, Wei Ran opened the wardrobe and saw that most of them were casual clothes, and they were all old, so he was not very satisfied.
Just go out and get some clothes.
Wei Ran thought about it for a while, put on his clothes casually, went downstairs to hail a taxi, and went straight to the pedestrian street, where there are many clothing stores.
I visited several brand stores, to be honest, the price of brand clothing made Wei Ran a little smacked, it was not that he couldn't afford it, he just felt that the quality of the clothes was not worth the price, and the cost performance was too low.
There is no way, what people sell is the brand, and it is natural that the price is expensive.
In the end, Wei Ran found a domestic brand clothing store and tried on a black casual suit, which looked pretty good.
Buddha relies on gold, people rely on clothes, Wei Ran, who wears a suit, seems to have a slight change in temperament, this is a set of clothes with charm bonus, Wei Ran commented.
After paying, the store helped take the suit to dry cleaning, and after such a toss, an hour passed, and Wei Ran came directly to the five-star hotel in his new clothes.
Liu Ming and the others had already finished eating, and they were chatting about today's food, and the first person to find Wei Ran was Liu Bailu, who was sitting in a position facing the door of the restaurant.
"Wei Ran, you are so handsome today!" Liu Bailu was very surprised.
"Hey, don't really say it, Wei Ran, after changing your clothes, I almost can't recognize you." Liu Ming turned his head to look at Wei Ran, and said in surprise.
"Not bad!" Chen Jianfeng held his glasses and nodded.
"Sample, have a fight with me." Su Chengyu stood up, came to Wei Ran's side, and patted him on the shoulder.
"Do you want to exaggerate like that? Isn't it just a piece of clothing? Wei Ran said helplessly.
At this time, Ling Lin also walked out of the kitchen when she heard the voice, and couldn't help but be stunned when she saw Wei Ran, and then said with a smile: "Wei Ran, you can obviously eat with your face, why do you have to rely on your strength?" ”
"Sister Ling Lin, even you laugh at me?" Wei Ran said even more helplessly.
"Haha" everyone couldn't help but laugh.
The time was almost up, Liu Ming took the lead in getting up and said, "It's not too early, let's go, right?" ”
Everyone didn't have any objections, and after waiting for Liu Ming's car, Wei Ran wondered: "Where are you going to play today?" Can you tell me now? ”
Hearing this, Liu Ming glanced at his sister, and Liu Bailu understood, explaining, "We are going to a club now. ”
"Club? What type of club is it? Wei Ran continued to ask.
"Well, a club that has something to do with your profession." Liu Bailu turned his head and glanced at Wei Ran in the back seat, and said mischievously.
Cook? Saying this, Wei Ran was a little looking forward to it, and he had never heard of a chef-related club.
The car went around and around for more than ten minutes, and finally drove into an underground parking lot.
"It's here, let's get out of the car."
Wei Ran got out of the car and found that there were less than ten cars in the huge parking lot, this is the capital, parking spaces are hard to find, is this a private parking lot?
Liu Ming seemed to see the confusion in Wei Ran's eyes, and said with a smile: "The club is private in nature and is not open to the public. ”
"I see!" Wei Ran understood.
At this time, Su Chengyu and Chen Jianfeng's cars also stopped behind, and when everyone arrived, Liu Ming took the lead to come to the elevator, which needed to enter a password to start.
It's really a private place, and the confidentiality measures are in place, Wei Ran thought to himself.
When I took the elevator to the 6th floor, as soon as the elevator door opened, there were 4 people standing on the left and right of the door, dressed in gorgeous clothes.
"Welcome to the Foodie Club."
It was the first time Wei Ran had received such a warm welcome, but his face remained calm.
"Mr. Liu Ming, Miss Liu Bailu, Mr. Chen Jianfeng, Mr. Su Chengyu, you are here." Within a few steps, a man who looked like a manager appeared.
After greeting Liu Ming and the others, the male manager turned his gaze to Wei Ran, although it was a fresh face, but this was a guest brought by Liu Ming, and it was definitely not an ordinary person, he still asked politely: "I don't know what to call this gentleman?" ”
"Wei Ran." Wei Ran smiled back.
"Mr. Wei Ran, welcome to the Gourmets Club, if you need anything, please feel free to contact me, I am the lobby manager here, Yao Fei." Yao Fei said respectfully.
"Yes, thank you!" This service attitude, I don't have to say.
Subsequently, under the leadership of the male manager, Wei Ran and the others came to Liu Ming's exclusive private room, which was very large in area and had everything to play with.
"You guys rest here first, and I'll let you know when it's time." After speaking, Yao Fei retreated and gently closed the door.
"So, do you want to tell me what this gourmand club is all about?" Wei Ran didn't know why, since he was called a gourmet, it should be related to food, right?
Liu Ming no longer sells Guanzi and explained: "The Gourmet Club is a gourmet restaurant with a VIP system, and there are no more than 100 people in the whole capital who have VIP qualifications. ”
No more than a hundred? Wei Ran couldn't help but be stunned, the first thing he thought of was the five-star hotel, the current business model of the five-star hotel is also limited, but it is completely incomparable with other clubs, after all, the object of people's service is a person like Liu Ming with assets of more than 10 million.
As for the VIP qualifications, it is not that there are less than 100 multimillionaires in the capital, which is absolutely impossible, because not every rich person likes to enjoy food.
"Tonight is the third anniversary of the establishment of the Gourmet Club, we are here early, I want to give you some time to get to know this place first, and later, there will be more people." Liu Ming continued.
Wei Ran nodded, Liu Ming's arrangement took care of himself, not bad.
Thinking that he might see a lot of multimillionaire-level characters tonight, Wei Ran didn't feel nervous or anything, he believed that with the help of the game, sooner or later, he would be able to reach their level, and more than that!
