Chapter 144: Chapter 144: Are you Mr. Lin, the owner of Qingyun Restaurant?



"Boss, Secretary Zhu and several directors and bureau heads agree that this wine is excellent, I think our restaurant should stock this wine..." Zhou's Waiter Leader, oblivious to his boss's reaction, didn't forget to continue currying favor, he fawned.

On hearing the waiter leader's words, the corner of Boss Wang's mouth couldn't help but twitch a few times.

This was a bottle of Qingyun Supreme, worth more than ten million.

He himself didn't dare buy a bottle.

If they allowed Wangxian Tower to stock this wine, wouldn't that be a joke?

Even if he did stock it, how many people in Immortal Origin County could afford it?

Beyond that, he had a vague feeling that Secretary Zhu and his entourage was about to fall into a trap.

If this wine was real, the price would be double, meaning the wine would cost twenty million, which wasn't much of a surcharge considering the price.

"Qingyun Supreme?"

"What kind of wine is this?"

"I seem not to have heard of this brand before..."

"Why is Boss Wang looking so surprised? Could it be that this wine is famous?"

Seeing how surprised Boss Wang looked, many people were also astonished.

Certain members of Secretary Zhu's convoy frowned, what did Boss Wang mean by this reaction?

At that moment, Boss Wang had turned his gaze to Lin Yun.

According to the waiter leader, the owner of this bottle of Qingyun Supreme was this young man.

"Hmm?"

The moment he saw Lin Yun, Boss Wang's heart skipped a beat. He seemed to recognize the young man—he was someone important... The owner of the Qingyun Supreme must be wealthy… Wait, he remembered now!

"Are you Boss Lin from Qingyun Restaurant?"

Boss Wang's face changed and he quickly walked towards Lin Yun, and asked very politely.

"Um—"

"What is happening?"

Seeing this, everyone was dumbfounded.

Was this not the boss of Wangxian Tower?

Wasn't it said that the boss of Wangxian Tower was a big shot?

Wasn't it said that even Secretary Zhu wanted to appease the boss of Wangxian Tower?

Why… Why was the boss of Wangxian Tower, of all people, being so polite to this young man?

Just who was this young man...?

Qingyun Restaurant? No one in Immortal Origin County has heard of that restaurant before?

"I am the boss of Qingyun Restaurant, and who are you?" Lin Yun glanced at Boss Wang and responded.

He hadn't expected that in his hometown thousands of miles away, someone would recognize him as the boss of Qingyun Restaurant.

"Some time ago, I went to Shen City and had dinner with friends at Qingyun Restaurant, where I was fortunate enough to meet Boss Lin..." Boss Wang said in a very humble manner.

He had to act humbly.

Although he was also wealthy, compared to the boss of Qingyun Restaurant, he was nothing.

As far as he knew, Qingyun Restaurant had raked in over a billion in prepaid membership fees in just two or three days.

The daily turnover was even more astounding, reaching tens of millions.

What did that mean?

The annual profit was probably tens of billions at least.

Many large companies couldn't reach that profit margin.

And this was from Qingyun Restaurant, just a single restaurant.

Not to mention, a top-tier restaurant in Shen City symbolized a lot.

Many people speculated that the owner of Qingyun Restaurant had a big background.

Regardless of whether Qingyun Restaurant belonged solely to Lin Yun or he was part of a partnership, Lin Yun's power could not be underestimated.

Whatever his feelings, Boss Wang had no choice but to humble himself before such a person.

"Boss Wang, what is the meaning of this...?"

Watching this unfold, Secretary Zhu frowned slightly and asked in a deep voice.

The young man had been very rude to them earlier, even attempting to extort them.

Now, this Boss Wang was being extraordinarily polite to the same young man, which felt like a slap in their faces.

"Boss Wang, aren't you in cahoots with this guy, planning some sort of scam?" The chief who held handcuffs, his eyes flashing with sharp glimmers, questioned coldly.

First, a waiter named Zhao had insisted they try the wine.

Then the same waiter Zhao had voluntarily offered to pay them double the cost of the wine.

Next, the young man had mentioned a sky-high price of twenty million.

Now, Boss Wang had appeared and was treating this young man with great deference.

How he saw it, it all added up to an old fashioned scam, a con trick.

With these thoughts in mind, his gaze on waiter Zhao began to take on a scrutinizing edge.

Hearing the chief's words, Boss Wang also started to get angry.

While a bottle of Qingyun Supreme was precious, it wasn't valuable enough for him to stoop to the level of setting up a scam.

He had a net worth of several hundred million, after all. Was he such a low-class person?

"Secretary Zhu, forgive me for being blunt, but Boss Lin really did not scam you. The bottle of Qingyun Supreme, even at double the cost, is indeed worth twenty million, or even more, since the standard price for a bottle of Qingyun Supreme is eleven million eight hundred and eighty thousand, and in general, it's hard to buy," Boss Wang turned to Secretary Zhu and said curtly.

"Eleven million eight hundred and eighty thousand? For a bottle of wine?"

"What is this Qingyun Supreme, it costs eleven million eight hundred and eighty thousand a bottle? And it's usually hard for customers to buy?"

"Is there such expensive wine?"

"How can that be?"

Many people were stunned and they exclaimed in shock.

Zhao Gang and Liu Ming were also flabbergasted.

They had both taken a sip from that bottle of wine before and though they confirmed it tasted very good, they had never thought it would cost eleven million eight hundred and eighty thousand.

Eleven million eight hundred and eighty thousand...what did that even mean...

They blushed, their hearts pounding. At that moment, they had very mixed feelings.

Some were incredulous, some regretful.

Eleven million eight hundred and eighty thousand per bottle, and they drank less than half a liter and more than a quarter liter per cup. Didn't that mean they'd just swallowed several hundred thousand worth assets just now?

Especially Zhao Gang, he didn't even know what to say at that moment.

When he thought about how he'd just taken three cups in one gulp, possibly worth nearly a million, he felt like he wanted to spit it all back out and capture it again.

Nearly a million worth of assets...

Especially in Immortal Origin County, many people would never earn that much—even after a lifetime of hard work.

If he had had a million assets, perhaps, his girlfriend wouldn't have broken up with him.

And just then, he had swallowed such a large sum of money in three gulps of wine.

"Boss Wang, are you joking? This wine, priced at eleven million eight hundred and eighty thousand per bottle?" An official beside Secretary Zhu asked coldly.

"Qingyun Supreme is the signature wine of the top-notch Qingyun Restaurant in Shen City, priced at eleven million eight hundred and eighty thousand per bottle, and is generally hard to buy. Many people in Shen City know this. You can look it up on the internet if you don't believe it," Boss Wang replied casually.

Then, Boss Wang turned to Lin Yun and said, "If the wine didn't belong to Boss Lin, I'd also suspect it's a fake. However, since it's owned by Boss Lin, there should be no question about it as Boss Lin is the owner of Qingyun Restaurant."

"Qingyun Supreme! I found it! It really costs eleven million eight hundred and eighty thousand per bottle!"

"There really is such expensive wine!"

"Hiss——"

"Now the fun begins!"

At that moment, some people who looked up Qingyun Supreme on their phones were taken aback and they all exclaimed in surprise.

"This young man is actually the owner of the top-notch Qingyun Restaurant in Shen City? Judging from his accent, it seems like he's from our Immortal Origin County. Our Immortal Origin County actually has such incredible people!"

"This is just unbelievable...

Some were looking at Lin Yun, all sighing in awe.

"This time, Secretary Zhu and his team have really met their match..."

"Tsk tsk, twenty million..."

"They deserve it, always grandstanding when there's no necessity. Now they've really shown themselves off!"

"Hehe, exactly, they've really outdone themselves. I heard they were the ones who initiated paying double. Otherwise, maybe they only needed to pay ten million. That doubling has increased it by ten million..."

Some were looking at Secretary Zhu and his party, all delighting in their misfortune.
