The leisurely life of the rich start

Otis smiled and said, "Old man, I am extremely envious of your living conditions."

"Thank you." Ximang said, "But, haven't you considered retiring and enjoying life?"

"I don't have wealth like yours." Otis shook his head. "Speaking of which, how much did you spend to buy that dragon head?"

Ximeng said quite complacently: "5000 million euros, buddy."

Otis said pointedly: "That's almost three times the price of the snake head, which is crazy."

Ximang immediately understood the meaning behind his words: "I think the dragon head is worth the money...why? Do you have an idea about the snake head?"

"I really can't hide anything from you." Otis took a sip of coffee, "If you want, I hope to buy the snake's head from you."

Ximang said with a half-smile: "Used to make a deal with that Chinese shareholder?"

"That's right." A gleam flashed in Otis' eyes, "Since you've heard about it, I won't hide it from you."

"The shareholder Mr. asked us to buy a Premier League team for him. My rival, Crocker & Co., is now moving forward with this."

"However, I would rather take out a beast head as a bargaining chip than to spend time and effort to acquire a team."

"Beast head, to you and me is just a collection, but to them, to Huaguo, it means a lot."

"I believe that Mr. Zhang will not refuse such a bargaining chip."

"You're really shrewd." Ximang said with a half-smile, "However, I like that snake head very much."

"Get off it, man, put down the rhetoric that neither you nor I will believe."

Otis laughed.

"Don't worry, I have prepared chips that you cannot refuse."

Simon sat up straight, waiting earnestly for Otis to speak.

...

"Peach Blossom Pan, this is a court dish, and it also has a special name called Bombing Tokyo."

On the dining table, Qi Kuan pointed to a pot dripping with red soup, and said with great interest,

"Peach Blossom Fan, it's actually similar to Sichuan Province's Three Fresh Rice Crust."

"During the Anti-Japanese War, Little Japan bombed the mountain city, so everyone changed the name of this dish to Bombing Tokyo to vent their anger."

Chef Hou added: "Now, we don't need to vent our anger, but the name of the dish is still preserved. I think this can be regarded as a record of history."

"That's true." Zhang Da nodded and said, "Speaking of which, the day after tomorrow is the public memorial day."

"That's right." Chef Hou said, "I'm afraid this year..."

Just as he was talking, Zhang Da's cell phone rang.

The caller is Tang Haitao.

He got up quickly: "Excuse me, I have a call."

Sitting on the sofa in the corner of the private room, he heard Tang Haitao say:

"Mr. Zhang, Kroc just invited me for an urgent meeting. I think there may be new progress today, so I'm calling to report to you."

"Okay, the detailed results of the meeting, you can send them to my mailbox by email later."

Zhang Da said, "Also, is there any movement in the Black Rock Group?"

"Okay, Mr. Zhang, I'll send you an email after the end." Tang Haitao said, "The Black Rock Group is also keeping in touch with us, and they have put forward a higher cash offer."

"Okay, I see." Zhang Da said, "Our primary goal is to win a Premier League team."

"I understand, Mr. Zhang."

...

Sitting at the dining table, Zhang Da said apologetically, "I'm sorry, there is something wrong with the company."

"Hey, it's normal." Qi Kuan smiled, "It's not easy to make money."

Zhang Da nodded with "deep sympathy".

After a full meal, several people chatted in the private room until late at night.

"Brother, why don't we go to Sanlitun tomorrow."

After sitting back in the phantom again, Shao Yu said, "I'm a little sleepy."

Tonight, her harvest is the biggest.

In addition to Qi Kuan and Chef Hou who have been communicating with each other, Mr. Wang Xifu also came to the private room and chatted with everyone for a while.

With these three "big shots" in the food industry sitting in charge, the materials she took today are enough to be edited into two videos.

And this kind of video full of dry goods is definitely a rare existence in station b.

Chapter 248 A Condition That I Can't Refuse

The next morning.

Zhang Da put his head on his head, rubbed his old waist, left the bedroom, sat in the living room of the suite and turned on his laptop.

Tang Haitao's email has already been sent to his mailbox.

Crocker & Co. has a new proposal.

They are willing to find a way to complete the acquisition of the Premier League team Watford for Zhang Da.

Seeing this, Zhang Da couldn't help frowning.

The current situation of Watford is not good.

This is a team that is in the relegation zone.

If he doesn't improve in the second half of the season, Watford is definitely at risk of relegation.

Such a team is not worth the stock he paid for.

In the email, Tang Haitao also mentioned this.

He believes that the acquisition of Watford now is to take a relatively large risk.

Zhang Dashen nodded in agreement, and dialed Tang Haitao's cell phone after calculating the time difference.

"Mr. Zhang, good morning!" Tang Haitao answered the phone in seconds, "Have you read the email?"

"I've read it, and I agree with your point of view."

Zhang Da said, "Such a relegation team, or even a potential relegation team, does not meet my requirements."

Tang Haitao said: "I understand, so shall I veto their proposal?"

Zhang Da said: "Okay, veto it."

Tang Haitao said, "Understood, Mr. Zhang."

"Yes." Zhang Da nodded and asked, "Have you had dinner yet?"

Tang Haitao said gratefully: "We have eaten, thank you Mr. Zhang for your concern."

Zhang Da reminded again: "Okay, then you guys go to bed early."

Although Zhang Da couldn't see, Tang Haitao got up and said, "Thank you, Mr. Zhang, for your concern."

After the call, he conveyed Zhang Da's concern to Zhang Zhi and Zhang Zhi.

In the living room, Zhang Daruo turned his head with a feeling.

Cheng Mingming pushed open the bedroom door at some point and was looking at him with a smile.

Zhang Da got up with a smile, stepped forward and scraped her nose: "Would you like to go to the gym for a run?"

"Not going today." Cheng Mingming leaned lazily on him, "Have you finished your business?"

"No."

Zhang Da shook his head firmly, and immediately hugged his girlfriend.

...

In the afternoon, when the three of them had afternoon tea together, Shao Yu kept looking at Zhang Da with a half-smile.

Zhang Da stretched out his hand and shook it in front of her eyes: "No, what are you looking at?"

Shao Yu sneered and said, "Haha, brother, it's nothing."

"You girl, be careful that I beat you."

"Sister Mingming, help!"

Cheng Mingming, who was so busy blushing, had no time to talk to the siblings.

In the evening three days later, the three of them attended the White Pearl appraisal meeting as guests.

Zhang Da met an "acquaintance" unexpectedly.

"Zhang...Zhang Da?"

"Uh, Xu Chao?"

Two "tractor" riders unexpectedly reunited in Yanjing.

"Oh, we haven't seen each other for more than a year!" Xu Chao said with emotion, "I went to Jinling to play with Brother Shen before, but unfortunately you were not in Jinling at that time."

Zhang Da nodded and said, "That's right, I didn't get the chance to go to Zhejiang Province to run with you this year."

"Haha, this is fate." Xu Chao smiled, looked at the second daughter behind Zhang Da and asked, "Who are these two?"

Zhang Da said with a guilty conscience: "Oh, my cousin and my girlfriend..."

Fortunately, Xu Chao didn't mention anything about last year's auto show.

Now that they met, the four simply sat at a table.

Seeing Shao Yu fiddling with the shooting equipment, Xu Chao asked curiously, "Well, are you an up master?"

Shao Yu nodded and said, "Yes, I posted the video on Station B."

"Okay, I didn't expect that we are still in the same industry." Xu Chao said with a smile, "I have set up a channel at Station B, which is dedicated to the content of sports cars."

Shao Yu said: "I take more pictures of daily life and gourmet shop visits."

Xu Chao nodded clearly.

Zhang Da interjected and asked, "Xu Chao, did you come alone?"

"Actually, my dad and I came here. He has invested in a restaurant called White Pearl, and the organizer invited us to come here as guests."

Xu Chao said, "It's just that my dad got sick when he came to Yanjing, so he had no choice but to not attend tonight."

"This..."

"Haha, I'm speechless too."

Xu Chao said, "If I had known my dad would be sick, I wouldn't have followed him to Beijing. To be honest, I don't think this selection would be interesting."

As he spoke, he lowered his voice and complained to Zhang Da:

"Look, some restaurant owners can also serve as selection committee members, referees and athletes, can they still maintain fairness?"

"Not to mention that there are some restaurants that spend money to buy titles, you know everything."

"Actually, I also hope that the white pearl can surpass the Michelin rating, but at present, it seems that there is no hope at all."

After listening to Xu Chao's words, Cheng Mingming and the others couldn't help looking at Zhang Da.

"Having said that...but this selection, I think it is still meaningful."

After hesitating for a moment, Zhang Da said,

"In my opinion, whether Michelin or White Pearl is a platform to promote Chinese food, the more platforms like this, the better."

"Besides, there may be some problems in the selection of white pearls, but it is also a process of exploration. Only by constantly trying, will there be a chance to surpass Michelin."

Xu Chao was stunned: "It seems...it also makes sense."

"Don't be so serious." Zhang Da said with a smile, "Just treat it as if you're here for dinner today."
