Chapter 4824: Anxious
After hearing what Lin Feng said, everyone looked strange. This guy is really so confident in his restaurant. He was actually afraid that they would feel uncomfortable after eating so much that they even prepared digesting soup. It’s a joke, they haven’t eaten anything, how could they be here to eat to their heart’s content today? This is so shameless!
Many guests did not believe it. Especially President Bush, I absolutely don’t believe that.
"It's ridiculous. Lin Feng is such a braggart. Do you really think that we are people who have never seen the world? Are we so full of bragging? It's a joke!" Bush said disdainfully.
"Yes, Mr. President, I think Lin Feng is exaggerating a bit. No matter how delicious the food is, it won't keep us full." Rice naturally praised Bush. But Mrs. Bush and two women beside her curled their lips. They already sensed that there seemed to be something wrong with the relationship between Rice and Bush. However, these two people also strictly abide by their duties to each other, without any intimate behavior, and there has never been any gossip between the two. This makes Mrs. Bush and her two daughters think that Rice is a flatterer of Bush.
However, President Bush is about to leave office, and he is still flattering like this. It is really disgusting! Bush's daughter Barbara pouted.
At this moment, on the other side.
"Lin, is this really as delicious as you say?" Chief Harmandan flew over from Dubai in person to support Lin Feng, which shows the strong relationship. After all, in Dubai, there are delicacies from all over the world, but Sheikh Harmandan has never eaten anything. He even traveled thousands of kilometers here just to cheer up Lin Feng.
"Haha, Harmandan. Trust me. After eating, you will regret it in the future. Regret. You can't be late for this delicious food every day in the future. But I have agreed, you are not allowed to poach my chef. I am Although the salary is high, it is still incomparable to the salary given by you chiefs!" Lin Feng scolded with a smile, "If that happens, don't blame me for falling out with you!"
"It's really so delicious! Lin, if it's really so delicious, then I promise not to poach you. I will call on other Arab sheikhs and crown princes to come and support me. For them, life has really lost its meaning. This money is not enough." , Life is always the same, and there is really nothing that can impress them now. So, if you have really delicious food, I believe they will come to support it," Harmandan said, patting his chest.
Lin Feng chuckled. As long as there are Arab sheikhs and crown princes coming to support them, then this store will not suffer losses. after all. Lin Feng's place here is both environmental and artificial. And the ingredients are top notch. The daily consumption of various ingredients and labor costs will not be less than 300,000 US dollars! Do the math, if it’s not full every day, you’ll be in trouble!
As for why the ingredients are so expensive, it's very simple. They are all airlifted from the deep mountains and forests of China, and they are all transported by dedicated planes, and they are the fastest passenger planes, specially designed for air transport. It’s weird that it’s not expensive! As for labor, the chef's salary is calculated based on annual salary, which will not be less than one million US dollars! There is no way, those who can make these dishes and make them in the shortest time are all special chefs. The salary is naturally high. Of course, it’s not that much, it’s a million dollars. However, Lin Feng was never willing to deduct wages from others.
In fact, if your salary is high, people will naturally be motivated to do things. The reason is simple. If you fail and get fired, you won't be able to get such a high salary elsewhere. As for the cooks, every dish can be regarded as their hard work. If you're in a bad mood, this dish will be ruined. If a cook is not in the mood to cook, the taste will definitely be in heaven or on earth. Therefore, Lin Feng offered high wages.
These cooks are highly paid;
Other staff are also well paid. The wages are twice as high as those in the same industry and field. Yes, it's doubled. For example, a waiter's annual salary in the United States is about $20,000. This depends on working hours and working environment. In A Bite of China, the basic salary of a waiter is more than 40,000 yuan per year. When you reach the foreman level, it costs at least US$50,000. As for the next higher level, it doesn't matter.
In addition to level, Lin Feng also advocates self-learning among employees. Every month, there will be an exam on ancient Chinese culture. The questions in each exam have different levels of difficulty depending on the level. Everyone comes in and is at level one. And every month you take the exam, and every time you pass a level, your salary will increase by one level. Of course, if you fail the exam, your salary will drop by one level. Lin Feng is using high salaries to stimulate his employees to learn ancient Chinese culture.
What are the benefits of learning this? It's very simple. The more knowledgeable you are about ancient culture, the better your overall temperament will be. This will have a completely different performance in terms of conversation, outlook, and how to deal with others. And this is also an element of "A Bite of China" to attract distinguished guests.
Therefore, the sum of these factors is also the reason why the price of the "A Bite of China" luxury store is a thousand times that of the home-style food. A large part of the price is the environment and services purchased.
Soon, the dishes arrived. Before coming up, everyone once again enjoyed a visual feast. All the waiters are young and beautiful girls, but they are not wearing modern clothes, but extremely gorgeous Tang Dynasty court dresses. The long clothes are flowing, the orchids are quaint, and the scenery is magnificent.
I'm already drunk before I even eat.
Immediately after the dishes were served, the dishes were opened and all the guests looked intoxicated at the red, green, and yellow dishes. When the hot mist hits your face and you take a strong sniff, the aroma that penetrates the heart is not to mention how tempting it is. The saliva flowed down directly. It's not a shame, because it smells so good.
This plate of delicious food is crystal clear, like a work of art, but it is not as unbearable as Western food, but the food here makes people have the urge to eat it immediately. Because if you don’t eat, you will feel like you will starve to death.
"Everyone, 'A Bite of China' is divided into three levels, 'homely', 'exquisite', and luxury. As for the price of dishes, exquisite is ten times the price of homemade, and luxury is a hundred times the price of exquisite. Why is there such a big gap? ? In addition to the classical and gorgeous environment, the quaint orchid palace maid, and the absolutely fresh and natural top ingredients from the deep mountains and forests, there is another most important reason why it is so expensive. I, Lin Feng, personally brewed the top-quality liquor! And every bottle is truly aged. This is absolutely unavailable on the market!" Lin Feng said with a smile, "So, I won't disturb everyone's eating now. Today, everyone can eat freely, I have prepared the digestion soup!”
While everyone was waiting for Lin Feng to finish speaking, they began to enjoy the delicious food and wine.
wonderful! This wine is wonderful. After drinking a cup, you will feel like you are floating. After two cups, your soul will drift away. Even if you drink three cups, even a god would not do it.
Gulu! This dish is so delicious. After taking one bite, you want to take a second bite. After taking a second bite, you want to take a third bite. One mouthful after another, non-stop.
The guests here today are all people who have seen the world. In terms of food and drink, that can be said. They have eaten everything the world can eat. When it comes to eating and drinking, they believe that there is nothing they haven't tasted before, and there shouldn't be anything that can make them lose their composure. But here today, they lost their composure. They swore that they had never tasted anything so delicious. Absolutely not. Every bite of this is heart-wrenchingly delicious. They could no longer use words to express how they felt about this delicious food at this moment. Words were too scarce to express. They can only express it through actions.
I drank one glass after another of wine. I also ate bowl after bowl of this rice.
Everyone ate so heartily that they really wanted to shout "Shuang" loudly.
"Lin, I broke my promise!" Chief Harmandan came to Lin Feng, with a round belly and a flushed face, and grabbed Lin Feng's shoulders, "Lin, I don't care, I would rather be a villain, you can If you want to give this cook to me, you must give it to me! This is so delicious. If you eat it, the simple food at my house can't be swallowed or swallowed!"
Chief Harmandan was about to cry. This is so delicious. Although he has never eaten Chinese food, Chinese food is just so-so. There are indeed hundreds of different flavors, but the feeling is just that. Not exactly delicious. Only today did he realize that the food he ate before was Chinese food, and it was obviously junk. This is the real Chinese food.
Delicious, so delicious!
"Haha, Harmandan, although we are friends and brothers, I can't promise you this. At worst, you can just come and eat more in the future. Don't even think about wanting to be my cook!" Lin Feng refused directly. .
There's nothing I can do about it, it's not that Lin Feng doesn't have enough friends. But this really cannot be given. These cooks are hard to find. These dishes are all Kung Fu tea, and each dish requires a lot of effort. If one cook is gone, where can Lin Feng find another one to replace him? Although Lin Feng is also training new chefs, it still takes time. Moreover, even if Lin Feng gave Harmandan a cook, Harmandan's cook would not be able to make it taste like this.
The reason is simple, ingredients! These ingredients are found in the deep mountains and old forests of China. They are all purely wild. This is hard to find. This is Lin Feng, so it is possible to find him. Another person can't be found. This is why the number of luxury-level restaurants cannot be too large. This is too much, and the ingredients are really not enough.
Of course, Lin Feng is also cultivating wild ingredients now. But that also takes time. Now, Lin Feng has surrounded large areas of remote mountains and old forests in China to grow various food ingredients.
Of course, Lin Feng could sell all these ingredients to Harmandan, but he still couldn't make it. The environment is different, and the chef’s mentality is different. This Harmandan can create such an environment, but it is still difficult for the cook to make such delicious food. Because here, what they cook is not Chinese food, but Chinese food culture. It is with such a mood in mind when cooking that I can achieve such delicious food. This is also the reason why Lin Feng offers such a high salary.
In Dubai, chefs don’t have this state of mind. This state of mind is not enough, how can we achieve it!
"Really?" Harmandan looked depressed.
"No, it really can't be done. Let's do this. We are all brothers and friends. I will leave this seat to you. No matter when you come here from now on, this seat will be yours. These seats and screens are all yours. Exclusively. Of course, if you are not here, I will let someone else sit. But I will change the seats and the screen alone." Lin Feng smiled slightly, "What do you think?"
"Okay, so be it. But, Lin, I have decided to stay here for a week before I leave. I want to eat all your delicious food before I leave!" Harmandan gritted his teeth and said.
"Haha, Hamdan, thank you for your patronage. But I'm afraid you can't eat all the food here, because China has been handed down for 5,000 years, and there are countless delicacies. If you want to eat all of them, you can't do it every three to five years. Besides, according to the season, the dishes we provide every day are different." Lin Feng smiled, "Okay, I won't treat you. I see that you have eaten a little too much. Here, a bowl of digestive soup!"
"Ah, wait a minute. I want another bowl of rice. This is so delicious, I want to eat more!" Hamdan burped.
Lin Feng smiled. Then he came to Ellison. He was the same, his face was red and his belly was round. Seeing Lin Feng, he didn't say anything after that, and just gave a thumbs up. Then, he lowered his head and continued to eat. This is so delicious, there is no time to talk.
Later, Donald's side was the same. He and Hillary Clinton ate enthusiastically, it was so delicious!
Basically, all the seats were the same scene, eating! There was no way, no one had eaten such top-notch delicacies. Luxury, this is not luxury, this is super luxury!
Finally, Lin Feng came to Bush.
"President Bush, how is the food, how does it taste?" Lin Feng smiled.
"This, that, it's just so-so. I think it's better than the Chinese food in Chinatown. But if you want to say luxury, top-notch, this is still a little lacking!" Bush blushed, maintaining the reserve of the US president, and shook his head slightly.
"Well, yes, just so-so. It's not delicious!" Secretary of State Rice also agreed.
Lin Feng smiled. He knew that these two people were stubborn. Just look at the empty plates and dishes on the table, and you will know how much they have eaten. But it doesn't matter if they are stubborn. Lin Feng doesn't care.
"Ah, in that case, I think I'll forget about the digestive soup. After all, it's not easy to make. After drinking it, the intestines will immediately secrete gastric acid quickly, turning the bloated food into nutrients and absorbing them into the body, and the rest of the dregs will be excreted through the bladder. Okay, Xiao Zhao, come and take these bowls of digestive soup away!" Lin Feng ordered.
This time, Bush was anxious! (To be continued...)
