As the owner of Xihe Restaurant, of course Tang Ping will come to tonight's event.
He asked Lu Yi to arrange a place for him on the fourth floor. When he came up, no one else knew him, and he didn't know anyone else either. He just discovered Cui Zhongqing who was following Cui Yingbo.
"Mr. Tang, long time no see. Your Xihe Restaurant is really good. You had to tell me earlier that you have this ability. It would be great to open a restaurant with my brother and me!"
Someone had already seen Cui Zhongqing, the second son of the Cui family, but the status of the businessman was not that high at this time.
So no one dared to come up to say hello. Now after listening to Cui Zhongqing's words, I realized that this young and outrageous young man who came here was actually the owner of this restaurant.
You must know that everyone who came to this restaurant today, like Arash and the others, was shocked over and over again, and everyone was a little numb.
But what they didn't expect was that all of this was actually done by the young man in front of them.
"Hey, do you think I think so? If possible, I would rather sit in my little shabby yard and drink tea!"
Cui Zhongqing knew that what Tang Ping said was true. Seeing that there was a young girl following behind him, he couldn't help but jokingly asked: "Brother Tang, why don't you introduce the person behind you?"
"This is Miss Wang from Dongyue, the largest shareholder of our hotel!"
This place was really not suitable for private chats, so the two of them just exchanged pleasantries before Tang Ping sat in his seat at the back.
As soon as he sat down, he saw shopkeeper Wang, who was on the opposite side of the road, walking up with a frivolous young man, who happened to be next to him.
Of course, the two of them haven't broken up yet. Shopkeeper Wang turned out to be a guest, so Tang Ping still said hello.
"Shopkeeper Wang, aren't you busy at Wangshulou today? You actually have time to come and sit with me at Xihelou." However, the irony in these words could not be stopped no matter what.
Shopkeeper Wang came today with the fifth young master of the Wang family, so he didn't say anything back. He just glared at Tang Ping fiercely, and then helped the fifth young master sit down first.
The fifth young master looked at Tang Ping and Wang Qingluan beside him, his eyes lit up, he clasped his fists and said, "A certain person comes from the Wang family in Taiyuan. He is the fifth in the family. Are you Tang Ping, the owner of this store?"
He deliberately only mentioned Tang Ping's identity as the owner of the restaurant, but did not mention Tang Ping's other identities. This was just because in his opinion, doing business was a lowly profession, and it was even worse when compared with his identity as the fifth son of the Wang family. Different places, the sense of superiority he needs arises spontaneously.
Especially Wang Qingluan dressed up carefully to go out with Tang Ping today, looking dazzling.
It stands to reason that the fifth young master Wang has seen many beauties, but Wang Qingluan's temperament is completely different from those he has seen in the past, so he originally wanted to keep a low profile and show off his peacock tail feathers.
Tang Ping didn't expect the fifth child of the Wang family to arrive. This man came with Shopkeeper Wang today, and he might cause trouble here.
Fortunately, Tang Ping also came prepared today, and he would just meet him and reveal his tactics.
At two o'clock in the morning, almost everyone had arrived, and the dinner party officially started.
Girls in uniforms were holding a tray with two towels and a glass of water in their hands.
Shopkeeper Wang was the first to attack and said: "Shopkeeper Tang, you have charged a lot of money into your diamond card, why don't you just send us away with a glass of water?"
Tang Ping ignored him at all. Under the gaze of others, he first picked up the steaming towel in the tray, wiped his temples and hands, and then picked up the steaming towel.
Others followed suit and realized the beauty of these two towels.
It's midsummer now. Even though everyone came in a carriage, they sweated a lot along the way. Once the hot towel wiped the sweat away, people felt a lot more comfortable.
Then apply this ice towel on your face. Not to mention how refreshing it feels.
Then Tang Ping picked up the glass of water in the tray and said, "Thank you all for coming. Tang Ping is stupid, so he replaced the wine with water and toasted to everyone."
The others naturally picked up the glass of water in a dignified manner, only to find that the water was also cold and pleasant. After drinking it, there was a light sour taste of lemon and a salty taste of salt.
The whole person felt extremely comfortable.
"Mr. Tang, this water is extraordinary!" Cui Zhongqing said with a smile from the opposite side.
"Haha, Second Young Master Cui has won the prize. This sea salt lemonade is a special offer for diamond members. You can have it anytime you come here."
With just one sentence, others felt bright in their faces.
Only the Fifth Young Master Wang saw Cui Zhongqing and couldn't help but frown.
If the dishes during the day all use ingredients that are available in this era, and at most use some modern seasonings, many of the ingredients tonight are brought by Tang Ping from modern times.
A glass of sea salt lemonade was followed by dessert.
Because the weather was too hot, Tang Ping chose ice cake.
While everyone was carefully studying the ice cake in front of them with silver stainless steel forks, Tang Ping whispered to Wang Qingluan: "How is it? It's interesting. I know you like to eat this the most, so I specially arranged this for today."
Wang Qingluan lightly kicked him under the table, but his heart was filled with joy.
Later, dishes that the wealthy businessmen from Chang'an had never seen were served one after another, paired with several kinds of fine wines, so that everyone could only focus on feasting.
Even the shopkeeper Wang felt that the dishes in front of him were extremely delicious and wanted to take a few more bites. However, seeing the gloomy face of Mr. Wang next to him, he could only hold back.
He jumped out just now to disrupt the situation, but unexpectedly he became Tang Ping's favorite, so now he doesn't dare to talk nonsense.
When Tang Ping invited people over, it was naturally not as simple as just having a meal. Considering that many people in this era were exposed to spirits for the first time, the wine served was not too much. After the banquet was removed and the hangover soup was served, tonight The activity officially begins.
The first person to come up was a singer from one of the most famous music studios in Chang'an.
The Fifth Young Master Wang had to admit that if the banquet tonight was just about drinks and dishes, their Wangshu Tower would be the loser. At this time, he could no longer hold back his anger and said: "Shopkeeper Tang is going to lose today." The drinks at night were good, but the show was a bit off-kilter.”
When he said these words, he didn't know that he offended all the other guests around him.
Because the banquets he usually attended were all about drinking wine and reciting poems, no matter whether they were arty or not, he naturally looked down on people who just sat down and watched the showgirls perform.
But he forgot, who are these people around him now? They are all businessmen of the Tang Dynasty. Although they are rich, few scholars can appreciate them. What they usually like most after banquets is similar song and dance performances, but now they have become the worst style in the mouth of King E's fifth son.
Tang Ping did not speak, and the performances of the singers on the stage were not interrupted. After dancing to the opening number of the orchestra's number one song, with two sounds of silk and bamboo, she was heard singing tactfully: "When will the bright moon shine?" Yes, ask the blue sky for wine..."
