Chapter 406: Chapter 200: The Chance to Play and Sing "Blue and White Porcelain" with Chairman Zhou (Part 2)

Tan Hongkai: "Alright, let me suggest some dishes that suit Young Master Song’s status, and you can decide if you want them. How about it?"

Song Siming nodded and said, "Alright! Go ahead!"

Tan Hongkai: "How about some French foie gras, imported from France, for 1,280 yuan per serving."

Song Siming: "Imported from France, and only 1,280 per serving? That’s too cheap. I’ll take it!"

Tan Hongkai: "And some Italian black truffle, 10,000 yuan per pound, divided into three servings. How about that?"

Song Siming: "Haha... sure! Italian imported black truffle at 10,000 yuan per pound; I think that’s very reasonable. Let me tell you, black truffles have extremely high nutritional value, and I eat them often."

Yang Chen: "Wow, 10,000 yuan per pound, that’s way too expensive. I, as a ride-hailing driver, can’t even imagine it."

Song Siming: "Haha... today, I’ll broaden your horizons."

Tan Hongkai: "Also, a tin of caviar from sturgeon, 50,000 yuan each, 500 grams per tin, which the three of you can share."

Yang Chen: "No way! No way! That’s too expensive, let’s switch to a cheaper dish. What do you think, Miss Xiaxia?"

Before Xiaxia could speak, Song Siming immediately said: "Expensive? Sturgeon caviar is meant to be expensive; this price is already very cheap. Xiaxia, let’s have one." 𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦

Xiaxia: "I really don’t want you to treat!"

Song Siming: "Why be so polite with me? Manager Tan, we’ll take it!"

...

With the cooperation of Tan Hongkai and Yang Chen, unknowingly, Song Siming ordered dishes worth as much as 650,000 yuan.

Western cuisine is meticulous, with individual servings.

Each dish doesn’t seem very expensive, all within Song Siming’s acceptable range.

But as long as Song Siming said to take them, it meant he had to pay three times the price.

Individually not expensive, but the total price added up.

Soon, all the dishes were served.

Yang Chen deliberately said, "These dishes are so expensive, it feels like one bite is enough for me to work for months. This isn’t eating; it’s like eating money."

Song Siming: "Haha... it’s a rare opportunity, just enjoy your meal."

Yang Chen nodded and started eating.

Soon, the three of them finished their meal.

Xiaxia called over the waiter, then took out her card to pay.

Song Siming quickly said: "Hold on! What are you doing? I said I’m treating, so why are you paying? If others find out that I, Song Siming, let a girl pay while dining out, how would I continue socializing?"

Xiaxia: "This meal is on me for Brother Yang, it has nothing to do with you!"

Song Siming quickly took Xiaxia’s card and placed it back in front of her, then handed his own card to the waiter, saying: "How much is it? Swipe the card!"

Waiter: "Hello, the total is 658,000 yuan."

The smile on Song Siming’s face immediately froze, "How much?"

The waiter handed the receipt to Song Siming, saying: "You can check it over. The total is 658,000 yuan."

Song Siming quickly verified the bill, and indeed the total was that much.

Initially, he thought around 200,000 would be enough, as it was worth spending the money to make an impression in front of Xiaxia.

After all, if he could win over Xiaxia, he could gain more benefits from her family in the future.

But he didn’t expect the total expense would be multiplied by three, which truly pained him.

"Let me handle it," Xiaxia said.

Yang Chen quickly said: "Young Master Song, quickly pay the bill. If you let Miss Xiaxia pay, your reputation will take a dive!"

Song Siming immediately snapped back to reality, then laughed loudly and said: "I thought it would be much more expensive, but it’s only this amount. Here, swipe the card!"

Xiaxia: "Really, no need! Use mine!"

Song Siming hurriedly handed his card to the waiter, then went with her to pay the bill.

Though it hurt, he had to endure it.

As Yang Chen said, if he really let Xiaxia pay this time, it would confirm he had no chances left.

"Haha... I really enjoyed today’s meal. Spending so little money and having such a great time, I think it’s worth it," Song Siming boasted.

Yang Chen: "As long as Young Master Song is satisfied."

At this moment, Tan Hongkai came over and said: "Mr. Yang, since you’re here, I’ll show you today’s sales figures. So far, the total sales for today amount to 3,856,800 yuan. On regular days, it’s roughly around this number too, mainly thanks to Young Master Song supporting us today, and with over four hours to closing time, the total has already reached our usual day’s level."

Yang Chen nodded, took a look at the sales sheet, and then praised: "Manager Tan did a great job."

The people nearby were all confused, unsure what was going on with this plot.

Song Siming hurriedly asked: "What do you mean? Manager Tan, why are you showing him the sales sheet?"

Tan Hongkai: "Oh, Young Master Song might not know. We’ve changed owners at Tang Pavilion, and the new owner is Mr. Yang."

Song Siming was shocked, his eyes widened like saucers.

Xiaxia was also stunned, her small mouth slightly open, looking very cute.

Song Siming asked: "You are the new owner of Tang Pavilion?"

Yang Chen: "Ah, yes, just acquired it, today is my second time here. I originally didn’t want to accept Miss Xiaxia’s invitation, but I wanted to check out the restaurant’s operations, so I accepted her invitation. Just now, hearing that Young Master Song enjoyed the meal made me very happy. It’s our principle at Tang Pavilion to make all customers satisfied."

The diners nearby all laughed.

"Wow, a ride-hailing driver acquired Tang Pavilion?"

"Haha... that’s hilarious, that guy actually invited the owner of Tang Pavilion for a meal here, and deliberately picked the expensive items."

"This plot is so wild; to make an impression in front of a girl, he splurged 650,000 to treat the owner of Tang Pavilion at Tang Pavilion."
