Chapter 88: Enemy Luzhai Breaks Out)
Baiyan Restaurant has three floors in total, and the decoration is quaint. The top is small. x. The first floor is an open restaurant with more than 200 dining tables in it; the second floor is a private room, with a total of 108 private rooms, spacious and bright, and a comfortable environment; the third floor is a VIP area, and there are only a handful of guests who are qualified to climb to the third floor.
With Tang Xiu's arrival, the restaurant manager had already received a notice and warmly greeted him and said, "You are Mr. Tang, right? I am Chu Hanqing, the manager of our Baiyan Restaurant. The boss has just notified me that the VIP room on the third floor is ready, and you and your friends can go to the third floor to have a meal. All your needs here are free."
"lead the way!"
Tang Xiu nodded calmly.
Jia Ruidao was a little excited on his face, followed Tang Xiu, and said with a smile: "Brother Tang, we have benefited from you today. You know, when countless officials and nobles wanted to climb to the third floor, they were stopped by the security staff here. Unexpectedly, I would be able to climb to the third floor of Baiyan Restaurant one day in my life."
Tang Xiu shook his head and said, "It's just for enjoying external things, it's meaningless."
Jia Ruidao smiled bitterly and said, "Everyone pursues different things. You can keep a normal mind when facing external objects, but people like you are rare!"
Tang Xiu thought about it and thought that what Jia Ruidao said was quite reasonable. Everyone has their own pursuits. Some people pursue fame and fortune, some people pursue power and sex, some people pursue material enjoyment, and some people pursue spiritual sustenance. Just like themselves, they only pursue two things: their strengths and their mothers day and night, and their practice.
There are 18 living rooms on the third floor, each with nearly 200 square meters. Although the interior decoration is also antique, the decoration is extremely luxurious. Even if Tang Xiu did not study much of antiques and antiques, he could see that there were many old objects in it.
"The Remaining the River During the Qingming Festival?"
As soon as Jia Ruidao walked into the hall, he found calligraphy and paintings on one wall. After he observed for a while, he immediately exclaimed in a burst of voice.
The restaurant manager laughed and said, "Our boss once attended an auction in the port area. This calligraphy and painting was bought at that auction. I heard that it took a full nine figure to get it."
Tang Xiu's expression moved and asked, "Have you met your boss? I'm not talking about your boss."
The restaurant manager nodded and said, "Of course I have seen it. I lost all my money because of gambling, and even lost my position in a listed company Ceo. At that time, my wife and children were separated and I was not full for three meals. It can be said that I was extremely down and out. Fortunately, I met my boss, who paid off my debts for me, taught me kung fu, and asked me to come to this Baiyan Restaurant to help her. In this flash, it seems that more than twenty years have passed."
Tang Xiu asked: "What is your boss' name? How old is it?"
The restaurant manager said: "We cannot easily spread the name of our boss. But she is old! I have only seen her four times in the past ten years. When I met her, she looked about twenty years old, but the last time I saw her ten years ago, it seemed that she was twenty years old. In fact, I also found it strange, as if time would not leave any traces on her."
Twenty years old?
It looks similar to that Gu Xiaoxue?
Tang Xiu frowned, and the little girl he looked at was growing up in his mind. When he first left him, he seemed to be only eighteen years old.
Tang Xiu suddenly said, "Let me find a pen and a piece of paper."
"You wait!"
The restaurant manager immediately informed Tang Xiu's request through the intercom, and then placed the recipe in front of Tang Xiu and others. When Tang Xiu and his friends finished ordering the dishes, the paper and pen had been handed over to Tang Xiu. While waiting for the dishes, Tang Xiu "brushed" and drew a portrait on the paper.
What he painted was the appearance of his apprentice when he was in the fairy world. She was eighteen years old, as she was like a flower. With Tang Xiu's paintings, a vivid portrait of a girl was born alive. There was a beautiful woman in the north, who smiled and laughed at the city and the country. The girl in the painting paper had a sweet smile, as if she came back to life.
"What a nice view!"
Jia Ruidao’s master and apprentice in the hall room, as well as the restaurant manager, were deeply attracted by the girl outlined by Tang Xiu. In a trance, they seemed to really see a beautiful girl standing in front of them and smiling at them.
"Look, is it her?"
Tang Xiu looked at the restaurant manager and asked in a deep voice.
The restaurant manager was awake from the intoxication, looked away from the painting reluctantly, shook his head and said, "You are painting a fairy. Although our boss is also very beautiful, it looks completely different from her."
"no?"
Tang Xiu felt a little loss and a little relief. He wanted to meet his disciples who had been raised and taught, but he was afraid of having a karma with those who betrayed him.
"Forget it, go and do it!"
"good!"
The restaurant manager agreed and left the hall.
Delicious dishes were delivered continuously, and the wine in the jar was also placed on the dining table. Two young and beautiful waiters did not leave the hall room, but filled the wine for Tang Xiu, Jia Ruidao and others. Then they sat down in front of the sofa on the other side of the hall room, waiting for the greetings of Tang Xiu and others.
“The wine is OK!”
This is the first time Tang Xiu has returned to modern times. He tasted it carefully and nodded and praised it. He has drunk countless fine wines and has a very high talent in making wine. But the fine wines from Baiyan Restaurant are also quite good.
Well enough?
Just OK?
Jia Ruidao drank a glass of wine and showed an unfulfilled look. When he heard Tang Xiu's words, he was stunned. It was the first time he had lived for a long time to drink such delicious wine. Why did he give Tang Xiu a "okay" evaluation?
His three disciples couldn't help but shake their heads at Tang Xiu's words. They were all wine lovers, and it was the first time they had drunk this level of fine wine. Therefore, they secretly mocked Tang Xiu's evaluation.
"Brother Tang, this is not an ordinary fine wine. I dare say that if we ordered wine in the second floor private room, it would definitely not be this kind of wine. Although the wine provided in the second floor private room is also good, it is far inferior to this one." Jia Ruidao said with a smile.
Tang Xiu raised his glass and said, "If you drink more if you drink it."
Late at night.
Tang Xiu and Jia Ruidao's master and apprentice were full of food and food, and left the restaurant directly. Because they didn't have to pay, they saved Jia Ruidao's master and apprentice a lot of money. You know, in the second floor private room, the cheapest meal would probably start with a hundred thousand yuan in cash. They had a lot of food tonight. Jia Ruidao secretly estimated that if they had to pay, they would probably not be able to leave without a million yuan.
In the night.
The five people walked along the shady forest path, and occasionally there were little flying insects lingering around the dim lights on the side of the road. Just as they were about to reach the parking lot, the road ahead was blocked, and the laughter even came into their ears.
"Oh, isn't this Master Jia Ruidao? He lost his virtue during the day. Why are he still in the mood to go to Baiyan Restaurant to drink at night? Could it be that he wants to drink to relieve his sorrow?"
There were twelve people in front of him. The one who spoke was one of the three young men in front of him. Tang Xiu did not know him, but Jia Ruidao and his three disciples knew him, and they were their enemies: Chen Kai, the famous playboy from Jingmen Island.
Jia Ruidao took a step and said coldly: "Chen Kai, don't be arrogant. We will return the humiliation you used to treat me a hundred times in the future."
Chen Kai laughed out loud and said, "I heard it right? Do you still have a chance to turn over? Tomorrow! Tomorrow I will let you understand why the flowers are so red! Hahaha..."
"you……"
Jia Ruidao was furious.
"Chen Kai, is he Jia Ruidao? A very famous professional gambler?" asked a young man lightly.
Chen Kai glared at Jia Rui as if provocatively, and then said with a bit of flattery: "Brother Chu, he is Jia Ruidao, the guy who almost lost his pants to me. The three guys behind him are all his apprentices. By the way, the youngest one is his son, a shiny loser."
The young man looked at Jia Rui and nodded lightly, "Chen Kai, remember to stay at the forefront of life. I want to see you in the future. If they bow their heads, let's forget about this matter! That jade pendant is pretty good, I like it very much. It will be mine in the future."
"Okay, okay, just treat it as my gift to Brother Chu." Chen Kai said happily.
Jia Ruidao was stunned. He looked at Chen Kai and then at the young man. He was furious and shouted: "Chen Kai, you are so fucking fart! That jade pendant is the relics of the old couple, and I will definitely try every means to win it back. If you dare to give it to someone else, don't blame me for fighting you."
Chen Kai said disdainfully: "What I win is mine. What I want to deal with is nothing to do with you? If you have the ability, just let the horse come over, I'm not afraid."
"Chen Kai!"
The young man who had just spoken shouted softly.
Chen Kai shrank his neck and said dryly: "Brother Chu, it's this old guy who is looking for trouble."
Jia Ruidao's eyes turned bloody and blue veins swelled up on his forehead. His eyes seemed to be able to eat people. He stared at Chen Kai and said, "What I lost will naturally win back. Tomorrow, tomorrow I will make you look good."
The young man named Chu looked at Jia Rui and said lightly: "I usually won't return the things I have. If you want a jade pendant, come to me. Forgot to introduce myself, my name is Chu Yi, and I am from the imperial capital."
Tang Xiu took a step and looked at Chu Yi and said, "You just said that you can stay in the front line of your life and meet again in the future. Since the jade pendant is the relics of Jia Ruidao's deceased wife, I think you should give him a chance. If he can win it tomorrow, he will be treated as a return of the jade pendant. If he loses tomorrow, we will never mention the jade pendant again, and the bet will be completely over. How about it?"
Chu Yi narrowed his eyes, looked at Tang Xiu a few times, and asked with a smile: "Who are you?"
