Chapter 296 Qiuju Crab Banquet
The taxi keeps heading north.

After arriving at Chen Chen's single-family villa, Bai Yuanshan paid the taxi fare and got off.

Bai Xiaobai got off the car with his uncle.

It is worthy of being the vacation villa of the king of dried seafood in Canton.

Bai Xiaobai was stunned for a moment.

A luxurious villa, hidden in the mountains and forests, built completely against the mountains, backed by verdant green hills, with a trickling stream in front, it is really an excellent place surrounded by green mountains and green waters.

There is a cobbled gravel road in front of the stream.

The gravel road is very wide, and there are several private cars parked on both sides, which should be the cars of the VIPs attending this banquet.

Bai Xiaobai followed his uncle through the gravel road to the villa.

Along the way, the scenery is picturesque.

Green pines and cypresses are planted on both sides of the gravel road, and there is a stone bench made of marble every other section.

There are bonsai of various shapes on the stone bench.It can be described as colorful and full of flowers.

It can be seen that these flower and tree potted plants have been carefully selected, without any residual flowers and leaves, which is very pleasing to the eye.

Stepping on the stone path all the way, in less than 2 minutes, you will come to the end of the stone road. This is a big hollow iron gate.

Through the hollow iron gate, you can see that there is an independent large courtyard on the outermost side of the villa.

In the courtyard, potted chrysanthemums are placed all over the marble floor.

The chrysanthemum potted plants competing for beauty and beauty are competing to open, and there are many varieties.

Looking around, it is like a sea of ​​chrysanthemums, full of colorful flowers, red like fire, pink like clouds, white like snow...

Smelling the tangy fragrance of chrysanthemums from a distance immediately made Bai Xiaobai feel refreshed, and couldn't help closing his eyes and sniffing carefully.

According to my uncle, this banquet is called "Qiuju Crab Banquet". As expected, there are chrysanthemums everywhere, and the fragrance of flowers is pleasant, which is really worthy of the name.

When Bai Xiaobai sighed, he saw a small group of people gathered around in the courtyard, chatting enthusiastically.

They should all be the guests invited to the banquet this time.

When Bai Yuanshan walked to the edge of the big iron gate, a guard had already stepped forward to stop him.

"Hello, please show me your invitation card."

The invitations are all electronic. Bai Yuanshan took out his mobile phone, opened the picture, and showed the electronic invitation.

The guard bowed slightly and said, "Hi, welcome."

Bai Xiaobai and Bai Yuanshan were able to enter the big iron gate.

Wu suppressed a small group of people and saw the iron gate open.

One of them, a thin old man with silver hair, recognized Bai Yuanshan at a glance, he immediately greeted him, stretched out his right hand and said, "Brother Bai, here we come."

"Old Chen, thanks for your invitation." Bai Yuanshan said politely.

Bai Xiaobai was sweating all over his face listening to it, and my uncle was quite a funny person in private, and the words that came out of his mouth always felt that they didn't fit well.

"Old Chen, this is the nephew I mentioned on the phone." After Bai Yuanshan greeted each other, he introduced Bai Xiaobai to Chen Chen.

"Brother Bai, your nephew looks very energetic and has a very good temperament. Is he engaged in the film and television industry?"

The implication of this sentence is to praise people for their good looks.

But Bai Xiaobai won't be complacent, he knows that people in the mall generally speak more pleasantly.

Ugly can be said to be good, and it is not uncommon to refer to a deer as a horse.

Bai Yuanshan replied on behalf of Bai Xiaobai, "My nephew owns a restaurant in Jianghai. I'll bring him here today to see him. He's not very talkative."

After Bai Yuanshan finished speaking, he gave Bai Xiaobai a look.

Bai Xiaobai is not an idiot either, so he naturally understood and introduced himself, "Old Chen, hello, my name is Bai Xiaobai, and I open a restaurant on Chaotianmen Street. I came to the dinner party with my uncle today, please give me your advice. "

After listening to Bai Xiaobai's short self-introduction, Chen Chen froze for a moment, and suddenly asked, "Are you Bai Xiaobai, the owner of Jianghai Xiaobai Restaurant?"

After these words came out of Chen Chen's mouth, Bai Yuanshan who was beside him was completely stupefied.

This is the first time I brought my nephew here, how could Mr. Chen know him?I also know that my eldest nephew's restaurant is called Xiaobai Restaurant, did he patronize it?

Doubts filled Bai Yuanshan's mind.

Although Bai Xiaobai felt a little strange, he still answered calmly, "I am Bai Xiaobai, the owner of Xiaobai Restaurant."

Bai Xiaobai's affirmative answer immediately sparked heated discussions among the guests.

In fact, before Bai Xiaobai's arrival, the topic of discussion between these guests and Chen Chen revolved around Bai Xiaobai and Xiaobai's restaurant.

Although Bai Xiaobai is not famous all over China, but now the network information is very developed. Some of Bai Xiaobai's glorious deeds in Jianghai have been spread by word of mouth through foodies, and posted photos on WeChat Moments. Jianghai City spread to Canton City.

Many top gourmets in Canton City already know a little bit about the name Bai Xiaobai and Xiaobai Restaurant through WeChat Moments.

Especially the sky-high prices of food in Xiaobai Restaurant, some of which have exceeded the Michelin three-star price, and they are out-and-out restaurants with sky-high prices.

At present, all the guests who can attend the dinner held by Chen Chen are old foodies. They heard that the young man in front of them is Bai Xiaobai, and all of them showed surprised expressions.

Because the guests came from all over the country, not limited to Guangdong Province, the whispered conversations were also mixed with Mandarin and Cantonese, and the pronunciation and intonation were not exactly the same.

"Which one is Bai Xiaobai?"

"The one who is almost forty is Chen's old friend. I have met him a few times. Bai Xiaobai should be the young one."

"No way, that's Jiang Hai's Bai Xiaobai, who looks too young, in his early 20s."

"This is Sai Lei, the little white monkey. A big friend of mine in Jianghai posted photos and said that a tea egg in his store sells for 1888, and the roast duck that was launched two days ago sells for [-]."

"Crazy. It's so expensive, and people still go to his restaurant to eat? It should have closed down long ago."

"I can't figure it out either, but his store has not closed down. Looking at the photos of friends in Moments, his store is full of ostentation every morning and noon. Even if a rice in the store sells for 888 yuan, there are still people patronizing."

"These people who go in to patronize are brain cramps, how much does a piece of rice cost? This is too weird."

"Anyway, the people who patronize his restaurant are basically not short of money. After those people eat, they all feel that it is delicious, worth the money, and worth the money, so there are many repeat customers."

"It's acceptable if it's delicious and expensive, but there are a lot of weird rules in his shop..."

Omit the five hundred words of my dear friend.

……

The male and female guests who came to the dinner party were talking a lot, and their voices varied from high to low. The main reason was that the female guests talked a lot, while the male guests mostly listened and talked less.

The content of the speech, in summary, mainly revolves around the following key words.

Bai Xiaobai, Xiaobai restaurant, the food in his restaurant is expensive, and there are many rules.

No matter how quiet the voices of the guests were, Bai Xiaobai still heard a sentence or two.

In fact, today I planned to come here with my uncle for a dinner, and after eating and drinking, I immediately slipped away.

Bai Xiaobai did not expect that the fame of the small shop he opened in a remote street had already rushed out of Jianghai City, arrived in Canton City, and spread to the ears of many friends of Cantonese Dried Seafood King.

I don't know if it's glory or sorrow...

In short, tonight's Qiuju Crab Banquet did not seem to be as easy as expected.

Bai Xiaobai thought to himself.
