234 Why Donât I Give Him My Daughter To Pay Off My Debt?
âHow⦠How much is it? 2,000 yuan per kilogram? Isnât this robbery?â
Cao Lan was dumbfounded.
2,000 yuan for half a kilogram of beef.
This was the first time she had heard of it.
If it had to be put this wayâ¦
The few mouthfuls she had just eaten had already cost her a few hundred yuan, right?
Chen Xuan laughed when she heard that. âWhat I just said, itâs only the price at the place itâs produced.â
âIf itâs really imported into our country, because of the tariffs and so on, there are also businesses that want to make profitsâ¦â
âThe final land price is estimated to be more than 10,000 yuan per kilogram.â
âWhat the f*ck? Tens of thousands per kilogram?â Many of Ye Baoguoâs neighbors at the banquet started eating when they heard how expensive the beef was.
The plates of beef on each table were instantly divided up.
âThis is beef that is worth tens of thousands of yuan per kilogram? I donât think itâs any different from what we usually eat.â
âWho says thereâs no difference? Itâs much stronger in texture and melts as soon as it enters the mouth.â
âBut itâs not worth tens of thousands of yuan. How much of our beef can you buy with that much money?â
âWhy else would you be poor? Itâs because you donât know how to enjoy it that the rich people pursue this kind of taste.â
âSigh, poverty has limited my imagination!â
She watched them eat with relish.
Those who had previously âdefectedâ to the Tan family were drooling.
Compared to the delicacies at Ye Fengâs side, the food here was as difficult to swallow as pig feed.
Cao Lan recovered from her shock and looked at Ye Feng and the rest with embarrassment.
âIâm really sorry. I didnât know that the beef was so expensive. Iâve already eaten half a plate.â
Ye Feng smiled without minding it. âIf you like it, eat more.â
Cao Lan quickly waved her hand. âYou guys eat. Iâll just eat this plate of mushrooms.â
As she spoke, she picked up a few pieces of mushroom-shaped food from another plate and put them in her mouth.
âYes, these mushrooms are also very delicious. You guys try them.â
She chewed two mouthfuls and was immediately drooling.
She hurriedly recommended it to everyone.
At this moment, Qiao Sixi, who was at the side, introduced, âThis is not a mushroom. This is white truffle that was air flown over from Italy.â
Cao Lan looked at him in confusion. âWhat is white truffle? Isnât this a mushroom? Do you need to air transport it from Italy?â
Qiao Sixi had a headache, but he still explained patiently.
âThis white truffle is also known as the âwhite diamondâ. It canât be cultivated by man, only found in the wild. You need to use a search dog to slowly search for it, so the price is also very expensive.â
Cao Lan looked at him in a daze. âVery expensive? How expensive is it? Can it be more expensive than Wagyu beef?â
Qiao Sixi scratched his head. âThe white truffle weâre purchasing this time probably costs 10,000 yuan per kilogram just in terms of raw material cost.â
âIf you include transportation, labor, and taxesâ¦â
âIndeed, itâs still far above the price of Wagyu beef.â
âPfftâ¦â
Cao Lan almost spat out the white truffle in her mouth.
She hurriedly caught it with her hands.
Then, she stuffed it back into her mouth.
10,000 Yuan per kilogram, and that was only the cost of raw materials?
This was really asking for her life!
One kilogram of white truffle was enough for her to earn for half a year.
Wasnât this too extravagant?
The people at the other tables heard this and started to fight for the white truffle again.
The people from the Tan family swallowed their saliva as they watched.
At the same time, they were also shocked by Ye Fengâs boldness.
A single dish from the other side was enough to cover the price of a table of dishes on their side.
This was the difference!
After the first two lessons, Cao Lan did not dare to move her chopsticks anymore.
She looked at the others with eager eyes.
Ye Feng wanted to laugh when he saw her current state.
He immediately pushed the plate in front of him over.
âAuntie, try this.â
âIs this dish expensive?â Cao Lan probed.
...
Ye Feng shook his head. âNot expensive.â
Cao Lan was relieved. She lowered her head and looked at the dish.
In the small plate, there was a pea-sized grain of food.
The grains were all a faint golden color.
It looked delicious.
She immediately picked up a small spoon, scooped a spoonful from the plate, and put it into her mouth.
The grains melted in her mouth and were extremely delicious!
Ye Feng smiled evilly. âAuntie, is it good?â
Cao Lan quickly nodded. âItâs delicious.â
Ye Feng placed the entire plate in front of her. âIf itâs delicious, eat more.â
Cao Lan was quite polite. âDonât just let me eat. You guys eat together.â
...
Ye Feng shook his head. âWe canât afford it.â
Cao Lan was stunned. âWhat do you mean?â
Ye Feng turned to look at Qiao Sixi. âHow much is this caviar?â
Qiao Sixi immediately replied respectfully, âThis Alma caviar is collected from an endangered animal, the albino sturgeon. Itâs very rare. Itâs about 200,000 yuan per kilogram.â
Cao Lan almost fell to the ground after hearing that.
âHow⦠How much is it? 2⦠200,000? Youâre not joking, right?â
Qiao Sixi immediately explained, âIâm not joking. Since we bought this urgently, we paid an extra 50,000 yuan per kilogram. In total, itâs 250,000 yuan per kilogram.â
Cao Lan felt as if she was struck by lightning.
Her mind went blank.
250,000 yuan per kilogram?
She estimated that the spoonful she had just now was at least one tael.
In that case, she had eaten tens of thousands of yuan in one bite?
Cao Lan felt that her heart could not take it anymore.
At this time, Ye Feng said slowly, âAnyway, we didnât touch a single bite of the food on this table. Whoever eats it will pay.â
Cao Lan almost fainted when she heard this.
Not counting the Wagyu beef and white truffle just now, just this whatever caviar alone would make her go bankrupt.
How could she afford it?
Or else⦠give him her daughter to pay off her debt?
Zhou Shuyao glared at Ye Feng. âDonât scare my mom. Canât you see that sheâs scared?â
Ye Feng also knew that he had gone too far with his joke, so he hurriedly waved his hand at Cao Lan.
âAuntie, Iâm just joking with you. Iâve already paid for it, so feel free to eat.â
Cao Lan was relieved.
However, after these lessons, she would never dare to use her chopsticks again.
Everyone at the scene was so shocked that they couldnât speak.
According to their calculations, the cost of raw materials for such a banquet was estimated to be at least 500,000 yuan.
A banquet that cost 500,000 yuan per table.
This was simply a bold and overbearing batch!
