"A rich family?" Master Rong was stunned. "There are so many rich people in the capital. How much is considered rich? Is it considered rich to ride a bicycle to work and live alone in a Western courtyard when you go home? Is it considered rich to just pull out something from home? They are all antiques. Even the cat feeding bowls are made of Yuan blue and white. Is it considered a luxury? I opened a ranch and raised [-] sheep just to make my pet shepherd dog happy. Is it considered a luxury? ?”

"Hao!" Xiao Yang gave a thumbs up, "I don't know what kind of food these rich people eat. Do they have to eat thousands or eight thousand for every meal?"

Master Rong said: "Rich people are also human beings. If you eat half a catty of meat, you will vomit after eating three catties of meat. You can eat so much in one meal. What do you think the Empress Dowager Cixi is? But I have seen real rich people. In this life, except for the emperor, In all the years, I’ve never heard of anyone more wealthy than them.”

"Master, please don't be so pretentious. What kind of arrogance is this? Did you eat bear bile or fall into the paw of a tiger?"

"Oh, that's nothing!" Master Rong curled his lips, "Back then, the Li family in the capital hosted a banquet for a distinguished guest and set up a table. That's called a wealthy family! If you want to talk about a wealthy family, then it's a truly wealthy family!"

Li Muchen's spirit was shaken and he pricked up his ears to listen.

"Oh, Master, please don't whet our appetite." Xiao Yang urged.

"Other people have a banquet that is as big as the sky. Even a Man-Han banquet only has [-] dishes. It would take at least five chefs to prepare it. If it's more elaborate, it would take more than a dozen chefs to make it."

Master Rong's face glowed with glory when he talked about this, like a general recalling past battlefields.

"But the Li family actually invited all the chefs from thirty-six well-known restaurants in the capital to come to their home. With the help of apprentices, there were more than a hundred chefs alone, cooking all the famous dishes from the eight major cuisines. Tell me, have any of you seen this scene before?"

Xiao Yang was dumbfounded.

Even Sister Mei listened with gusto.

Only Boss Wang, always smiling, was lying behind the bar.

"How much does it cost?" Xiao Yang sighed.

"How much?" Master Rong said, "Not to mention the eight hundred dishes, from the ingredients to the expenses of more than a hundred people, just for this matter, thirty-six large hotels closed down for a day, how much do you think they will lose? money?"

"Hiss!" Xiao Yang took a breath of cold air, "Can those hotels agree?"

"Hey, this is called a wealthy family! Some things can't be done with money. You ask those richest people now to spend money and try to see if those restaurants are willing to close their business for him for a day. You know, then Thirty-six grand hotels are not ordinary restaurants. Behind them are big groups and big forces. How many celebrities in the capital go to these restaurants to eat every day."

"Master Rong, why haven't I heard of this?" Sister Mei asked.

"Back then, information was not as developed as it is now. If the media didn't report it, people outside would naturally not know about it."

"Why doesn't the media report such a big thing?"

"The Li family doesn't allow reporting, so who dares to report it?"

"Master Rong, how come you know so well?"

"Me? Hehe," Master Rong said with a proud face, "Back then, my master was one of the chefs of those thirty-six restaurants. I was lucky enough to follow him and cook. Those eight hundred dishes, I have witnessed the craftsmanship of thirty-six chefs with my own eyes.”

"Wow, Master, you are so awesome!" Xiao Yang flattered Master Rong.

Li Muchen asked: "Master Rong, do you know who the guests at the Li family's banquet were?"

"Where do I know where to go?" Master Rong spread his hands, "We cooks, who cares who eats. But I do know that this guest is a woman, because the housekeeper of the Li family came here to explain it. Let’s consider the specificity of women’s tastes when we cook.”

female?

Li Muchen unconsciously began to think.

Must be a very important person.

If we can find this person, we may be able to find some clues.

"Master Rong, how much do you know about the Li family?" Li Muchen asked.

"Hey, I'm just a cook. After finishing my work with my master, I cleaned up and left. How could I know about his family's affairs? And let me tell you, the wealthy families in the capital are very low-key. It was only that time that I found out about such a thing. A Li family."

As soon as Master Rong finished speaking, Boss Wang behind the bar suddenly interrupted: "Master Rong, you finally went to a wealthy family, but you didn't get anything?"

Master Rong's face changed and he said angrily: "Hey, you idiot, what are you talking about? Do you know what is the most important thing for a cook? Reputation! Do you understand? If you keep talking nonsense, I will chop you with a knife!"

Boss Wang was not angry when he was called Wang Laowu. He still said with a smile: "If you didn't take it, you didn't take it. Why are you so anxious? If you are so angry, it's like you took it."

"Hey, you idiot, you're in high spirits, aren't you!" Master Rong puffed his beard and stood up with eyes wide open, "Believe it or not, I'm really going to kill you?"

"Come on, let's chop it down." Boss Wang still smiled.

Master Rong was about to rush into the kitchen to get the knife, but Xiao Yang hugged him, "Master, calm down! Calm down!"

Li Muchen always felt that these two people were a bit strange.

Sister Mei smiled and winked at him: "Ignore them, they two are like this all the time."

Li Muchen seemed to understand something.

Unable to find out anything from Master Rong, Li Muchen asked Sister Mei for leave because he had to go to the Lin family.

Lin Shangyi has been discharged from the hospital.

Now that we already know that it is the Zhao family who is behind the scenes, there is no need to continue to pretend to be sick in the hospital.

After Lin Shangyi was discharged from the hospital, he called Li Muchen and asked him to go there before five o'clock in the afternoon.

Li Muchen wanted to help Lin Shangyi get an injection to save his life, so he naturally agreed.

When they arrived at Beixi Villa, Li Muchen saw Mrs. Lin Yan Huimin and Lin Manqing standing at the gate from a distance.

As soon as Li Muchen appeared, Yan Huimin pointed at him and said, "Come on, come on!"

Suddenly, he picked up a broom from the side and swept the ground outside the gate.

Li Muchen was stunned. What kind of operation was this?

He walked over and said hello: "Mrs. Lin, Manqing..."

"Mu Chen is here!"

Mrs. Lin responded with a smile, but she continued sweeping the floor with her hands, until she reached Li Muchen's feet.

Li Muchen quickly stepped aside and took two steps to the side.

But he didn't expect that when he moved, Mrs. Lin would follow suit.

Wherever he goes, Mrs. Lin sweeps his eyes.

While sweeping, he said: "Mu Chen, come here, follow me."

As he spoke, he swept all the way and retreated, actually helping Li Muchen clear the road ahead.

"Madam, who are you?" Li Muchen asked curiously.

"What's your name, madam? Auntie!" Yan Huimin smiled and waved the broom.

Looking at her unfamiliar movements, you can tell that she doesn't usually sweep the floor.

Li Muchen looked at Lin Manqing.

Lin Manqing couldn't help but want to laugh and said, "Have you forgotten, didn't you make a bet with my mother before you treated my grandfather?"

Li Muchen suddenly realized, then looked at the smiling Yan Huimin, and whispered: "Looking at your mother's happy face, why do I feel like I lost?"

Lin Manqing rolled her eyes at him: "You've got an advantage and you still act like a good boy!"

Li Muchen chuckled.

Under Mrs. Lin's cleaning, Li Muchen walked into the Lin Mansion on a particularly clean road.

This scene left the security guard at the door dumbfounded.

Not only did Mrs. Lin go out to welcome people in person, but she also swept all the way and welcomed people in like a doorman greeting guests.

Seeing her look like that, she was quite happy, as if she had won the first-class lottery.
