Chapter 19: Lunch
Chen Chen didn't linger too much on the issue of red wine, let them think about it more, and talked happily with the nobles, and soon Victor prepared lunch.
"Gentlemen, I am glad that you are here at my estate, and now come and taste the vegetables that are special to my estate, and you are the one who knows its fame." Chen Chen walked in the first place and nodded to the nobles behind him.
Everyone followed Chen Chen to the courtyard of the castle, and many nobles were looking forward to the banquet in the manor, because they had long heard of the fame of the vegetables in Chen Chen's manor, and some even tasted it, but since Chen Chen gave the agency to Wei Lun and Wei Lun adopted a limited sale, they haven't tasted it for a long time, because there are too many people robbing it.
"Sit down, everyone, I'm glad you to be here today, as the owner of this place, I have a responsibility to entertain you, please don't be polite, it's all vegetables grown in the manor and there are freshly brewed red wine and whiskey, everyone is free to take it." After finishing speaking, Chen Chen made it at the front of the long large dining table.
And the Grand Duke of Wales sat on his right, because he was the most honorable person on the scene, if it wasn't for Chen Chen's home field, he should have sat on the main seat, of course, he didn't care about these today, he only cared about one thing, that is, red wine called life essence.
Just after taking his seat, Viscount Sean spoke: "Thank you, Lord for your hospitality, your dishes must be the best, but the only thing I want now is the red wine, I don't know if I have the honor to visit the place where the wine is made." ”
Chen Chen smiled after taking a bite of the dish and said, "Viscount Sean is really anxious, but I can understand your mood, don't worry if any of you are interested after eating." I'll let Victor show you around. As for the red wine you are talking about. I'll give you a small bottle when you're gone, but don't underestimate it, it's worth a lot of money. ”
Sean was excited when he heard that he would give him a small bottle, he didn't expect Viscount Chen Chen to be so generous, it seemed that he had good luck, he stood up and raised his glass to Chen Chen and said: "May you stay young forever, and there will be no more sorrow from now on, I will be your best friend." After saying that, he drank it all.
Chen Chen also raised his glass in response. Of course, the other nobles were even more remorseful after seeing such a result, why didn't they greet Chen Chen and say that they wanted that kind of wine, you must know that the price of the life essence outside now is the same volume of diamonds, even if it is so, no one will sell it.
Didn't you see that Bart and Connor turned people away even if someone else came to the door with money, Connor even locked the wine in the bank's vault, and even his son couldn't get it unless he went to get it himself.
A slightly chubby nobleman was obviously unwilling to give up the opportunity to get benefits, he also stood up, toasted to Chen Chen and said, "Hello Viscount Chen Chen." You can call me Robert, I'm a count, of course only by name. It's not as good as your realm nobles, but I'm a big business, I'm a food and drinker, and I hope to have the opportunity to cooperate. ”
"Food? Do you know how to cook? Chen Chen heard him ask about eating.
"Oh, of course, if I hadn't inherited the family business, I think I would have been a foodie and chef by now." Robert saw that his words really aroused Chen Chen's interest, and he was immediately full of energy.
"Well, good ambitions, and to be honest, I fantasized about being a foodie and being able to taste delicious food from all over the world. Cheers to our shared ambitions. Chen Chen has a good impression of this fat man who is full of joy, I don't know who said it? There must be a fat man among your friends, Chen Chen agrees with this sentence.
For Chen Chen's toast to himself, Robert hurriedly got up and saluted back, there was no way, but he wanted to do business with Chen Chen, he asked for people now, and he would ask for people in the future, who let him eat Chen Chen's dishes and feel that he had a lot to do.
"By the way, you just said the opportunity to cooperate? How do you want to work together? Chen Chen fully expressed his goodwill, saying that he was willing to cooperate with these nobles, of course, they had to bring it up first.
"Ahh That's right, because I own a restaurant, but you know that in England you hardly produce your own vegetables, and even if you do, it's hard to eat, but your estate is different, and the food produced is absolutely superb, so I want to be able to buy this vegetable with you for a long time, and of course your wine, superb. He raised the red wine in his hand to show that he liked it.
"If you like it, of course I'm willing to cooperate like this, but I may not be able to provide you too much, because I have to leave some of it for the next opening of the academy, which is intended to be used to replenish the students' bodies." Chen Chen shook his wine glass and said leisurely.
Many aristocrats are puzzled, replenish the body? Is there anything special about it?
"I wonder what's so special about this dish?" Robert asked the nobles what they thought, and he was really an understanding fat man.
"Because this dish is from the same source as the sake brewing, but the effect is weakened a lot, but if you eat it often, you can avoid all diseases, so I plan to use this as a reward for the academy." Chen Chen released a bombshell.
All diseases are not born, very beautiful words, human beings' pursuit of health is endless, just like the pursuit of life, now an opportunity is in front of everyone, how can people not be crazy.
"So, I wonder if Viscount Chen Chen's dishes can be sold to us now?" A nobleman couldn't help but stand up and say.
Chen Chen raised his eyebrows and glanced at him and said: "A large number of them are not good, but if it is just for everyone's family to eat, I can give you some for free, in fact, this is a benefit for students, raising eyebrows and studying in the academy as long as the table is good, you can get points, and this point can be exchanged for a large number of vegetables, I don't send money here, only vegetables." ”
Everyone whispered in their hearts, "You are not making money, if you are known by people outside, you will not be crazy, as long as your students are willing to sell, it is not a big banknote, you are not a dish, you are making them rich." ”
Of course, I already have the idea of letting my children come here to study, and it is worth it if not for anything else.
"Then, may I ask Viscount Chen Chen if that kind of life essence can also be exchanged for the academy's points?" A nobleman sitting at the end spoke, looking at the position he was sitting in, he knew that his status would not be very high, but Chen Chen did not mean to despise others.
"Of course, this is my manor, my academy, as long as the things in it can be exchanged for points, but it requires a lot of points, and there may be points that some people can't earn in their lifetime." Chen Chen said meaningfully that he had already guessed what this nobleman was thinking, but this was exactly what he hoped for.
"I understand, thank you, Viscount Chen Chen, for giving us such an opportunity." He toasted Chen Chenyao at the end of the table.
Some of the nobles have already understood, this is Chen Chen wants them to send their children here to study, in exchange for what they want, while other nobles who are inflexible or already drunk listen to the clouds, it depends on their creation.
Soon the lunch was over, except for a few nobles who were drunk, everyone else was very happy, and Chen Chen was even more happy, because just now he had already made a business, and when Robert knew that he couldn't buy vegetables in large quantities, he wanted Chen Chen to inquire about what could be sold.
Chen Chen told him that he could sell a large amount of fine flour, and at the same time, if Robert needed him, he could sell him some wine, of course it wouldn't be too much, even this made Robert call lucky, just now he had tasted Chen Chen's whiskey and wine, which were very attractive, and more importantly, for the same effective fruit as life, but the effect was weak, and it needed to be drunk for a long time.
After Robert hurriedly thanked Chen Chen, he said that he was leaving, and he was going to prepare for cooperation with Chen Chen, which made the Grand Duke very unhappy, because he didn't get anything, but his subordinates took the lead, but he couldn't attack in front of Chen Chen, so he could only agree with a cold face.
Of course, Chen Chen saw that the face of the Grand Duke of Wales was wrong, but he didn't care about it.
At this time, when people were enjoying the dessert after the meal, a little girl chased the little white wolf out, Lilian didn't hold it steady when she dressed the little white wolf and let it run out, and then when the little white wolf saw Chen Chen, it was immediately like seeing a protector, running behind Chen Chen, and couldn't live or die under Lilian's threat.
"Okay Lillian, what are you pretending to be a little wolf again? Look how scared it is of you. As if to cooperate with Chen Chen, the little wolf immediately let out a whining wail at Chen Chen's feet, which made many onlookers laugh, but they didn't expect Viscount Chen Chen to have such a cute pet.
"What, people just want to dress it up beautifully, you see Lillian is very beautiful, so Lillian's pet should also be beautiful." The little girl's world is completely unknown to adults, stubbornly thinking that she is right, and then chasing after her like a little wolf.
The little wolf looked at it, it seemed that his master couldn't protect himself, so let's run, run to the forest first, where is the place where Lillian didn't dare to go, wait until Lillian forgot about herself and then come back, looking at the little wolf who ran away, Lillian could only call helplessly in the back, but unfortunately the little wolf didn't even look back.
After watching a chase scene, the nobles seemed to relax a lot, I have to say that cute pets and children are the medicine that makes many people put down their hearts and masks, and the nobles began to exchange what they saw in the manor, whether it was people or things, especially Chen Chen's magical vegetables and red wine, it was the focus of their discussion, not that no one thought about buying and selling, but you have to have that strength, people have already shown their own strength in the canonization ceremony, as well as their own power, what can you do with others, It's not honest yet.
