Chapter 29: The Truffle Feast
Long, I'm glad you accepted my invitation to come to my home, it's an honor. Messer took over the conversation, winked at Chen Feng slightly, and introduced, "This is my wife Agrice and daughter Jenny. ”
"It is a pleasure to meet you, Mrs. Maisel, and this lovely young lady. Chen Feng bowed slightly to Messer's wife and daughter in a very gentlemanly manner.
"We are also very happy to meet you. Grece smiled gently, "I heard my husband say that he invited you to be a guest tonight, and my daughter and I thought he was joking, but I didn't expect it to be true. YOU KNOW, OUR WHOLE FAMILY IS YOUR FANSS, ESPECIALLY MY DAUGHTER, SO PLEASE FORGIVE HER FOR HER RUDE BEHAVIOR. ”
Chen Feng smiled: "Miss Jenny was completely happy from the bottom of her heart just now, it is not rude, I can get a hug from her, I am deeply honored to this." ”
All four of them laughed together.
Subsequently, Chen Feng bought three gifts, took them from the hands of his entourage one by one, and handed them to the Messer family, and all three of them expressed their gratitude one by one. Because it was purchased by Cao Yunfang, what kind of gift is this, in fact, Chen Feng doesn't know, but when Chen Feng asked her to buy it, he had already explained the situation, and regardless of the price, she was reimbursed later, so she must be okay.
"Okay, it's a very rude thing to have a distinguished guest standing at the door, longg, please, please!"
Messer stretched out his hand to please.
Along the way, Messer, the owner, told Chen Feng about the structure and layout of his manor, and for others, Messer would certainly not reveal the situation of his house so unreservedly, but Chen Feng, the boss, was an exception. Through Guò Messer's introduction, Chen Feng knew that Messer had really put a lot of effort here, and almost built this place into a military base, and the number of bodyguards alone reached more than 200 people, and they were all heavily armed and had heavy weapons, if the army came over, it was impossible to capture this place.
After walking for about ten minutes, a few people arrived at the restaurant on the first floor of their residential building, the layout here does not look like anything resplendent on the surface, but some of the decorations and furniture in the hall, even if Chen Feng is a layman, can see that they are some valuable things.
On the side of the earth is the restaurant. At this time, a table was already on the table with all kinds of delicacies.
Messer led Chen Feng to the table and sat down. Laughing: "Loongg." We haven't eaten it until now to have dinner with you. Peacetime. We had dinner at six o'clock. According to the rules of the Chinese. You'll have to pay three drinks. ”
"I'm sorry guys. Today our family went to Disneyland. Before I knew it, I was a little late to play. There was another delay on the way. I was late for the first visit. I'm really sorry. ”
"Longg relationship. My husband laughed. Agrice said politely. She didn't know about the relationship between Messer and Chen Feng. I secretly feel that my husband is like this. Obviously a bit of a faux pas.
And I didn't mean to be late. All right. Let's start eating. Jenny was also dissatisfied with her father's hospitality. Said and diverted the topic. "Dad. Did you buy that truffle for the chef to make? I can't wait. ”
Jenny said with a look of greed. Xiang Chen Feng explained: "Longg. Truffles know. Five or six days ago. My dad bought an 800g ground white truffle in Italy. It is said that it is to be used to entertain distinguished guests. I haven't eaten it all the time. Today he was finally willing to take it out. I've touched your light this time. ”
"Truffles?" Chen Feng was slightly startled in his heart, and information about truffles came to his mind: there are about 30 kinds of truffles, among which white truffles and black truffles are the most delicious. Truffle is a natural fungal plant that grows mostly under pine trees, trees, and oak trees. Because it is very picky about the environment in which it grows, it cannot grow as long as there is a slight change in sunlight, water or the pH of the soil, which is why truffles are so rare. It is known as the "white 'diamond' that can be eaten", especially the white truffle, which is one of the most expensive foods in the world. If the price of a black truffle is similar to that of gold of the same weight, then the only one that can compete with the price of a white truffle is a diamond. Truffles with caviar, champagne, oysters~, foie gras all mark the most expensive luxuries in food. The price of truffles is just as much as the taste, which is one of the reasons why they attract many diners. For the truffle, its legendary aphrodisiac effect also adds to the magic of the white truffle......
Among Chen Feng's memories, there is a Macau gambling king He Hong who bought a piece of the fungus king known as the "white truffle fungus of the century" and weighing more than 1.5 kilograms at a sky-high price of US$330,000 (about HK$2.57 million) in 2007.
"Mr. Messer, you are really willing to spend money!" Chen Feng couldn't help but sigh.
"Hehe, long, money is for earning and spending, not to mention, the reason why I bought this white truffle is purely to entertain a distinguished guest like you. Messer winked at Chen Feng.
Chen Feng was slightly moved in his heart when he heard this, this money is secondary, and the main thing is Messer's heart.
"Thank you then, to be honest, I also really tasted this human delicacy with the reputation of 'diamond'. Chen Feng said happily.
"When you came
I've already asked the chef to prepare, and it shouldn't take long to be served. said.
Jenny added as if to take credit: "Longg, my dad has specially invited a two-star Italian celebrity chef from Macau for this truffle this time, and I believe he will definitely not let us down." ”
"Come, let's have an aperitif first. Messer personally poured wine for Chen Feng. Chen Feng didn't have much to say about it, but Agrice and Jenny were a little surprised. In my memory, since Messer became the "richest man in the world", he has never been so kind to outsiders, and he actually poured wine for people himself. However, although the two are surprised, they are also happy that Longg is the idol of their mother and daughter, and they are certainly happy to see that their husband (father) values Longg.
Chen Feng raised his glass to the Messer family and said, "This first cup, I wish your whole family happiness and health." ”
Flattery Chinese and foreigners love to listen to it alike, and the three of them said thank you at the same time and drank a glass of wine with Chen Feng.
"Let's try the 'orange French foie gras' first, which is made by our French chefs, and everyone usually likes it. Messer invited.
Chen Feng sighed in his heart for the enjoyment of the Messer family, and at the same time began to taste it unceremoniously, the taste was really good, much more authentic than the taste that Chen Feng had eaten at the Four Seasons Hotel.
"Uh-huh, that's wrong!" Chen Fengtou expressed his appreciation, and the three members of the Messer family were very happy to hear it.
Messer courteously invited Chen Feng to taste the dishes he was sitting on. Basically, he tasted several famous dishes in Western food one by one, and Chen Feng was addicted. You know, Messer's meal tasted much more authentic than what he had eaten in those hotels before.
"Dad, I see you've known each other since you longg, right?" asked Jenny suddenly.
Mel and Chen Feng were stunned when they heard this, and asked quietly, "Oh, where did you see that we knew each other before?"
"Do you still see that?" said Jenny, "and the way you talked and got along seemed to be like old friends who had known each other for many years, and it seemed very natural and harmonious. ”
"Yes, Messer just looked at the expressions of the two of you, like old friends who have known each other for a long time. Agrice chimed in.
"Oh, that's probably our fate. Messer disguised, "I watched the LON press conference with all of you at that time, and I admired him very much. Therefore, I have this invitation, and I believe that he and I will be good friends in the future. ”
"Yes, we met late, and I feel that I have a very speculative conversation with Mr. Messer, and I think I am friends with Mr. Messer now. Chen Feng also followed and echoed, "Messer, am I right?"
"Oh, yes, of course. Messer was stunned for a moment, then squeezed his eyes at Chen Feng with a smile, raised his glass and said, "For our friendship, cheers!"
"Cheers!"
Chen Feng picked up the 82-year-old Lafite and drank it all. Messer is also very face-saving.
"It seems that this friend of yours has made up his mind. Egrice said happily.
Jenny applauded: "Great, Dad, long has become friends with you, and I can get longg's signed CD as soon as possible, right, in the future, every time you release an album, you must send me your signed CD as soon as possible." ”
Chen Feng smiled and nodded.
"Great, Longg, I'll toast you too. I'll do it first!" Jenny said, raising her glass and taking a sip of it, so that Agris, who had tried to stop it, couldn't stop it.
Seeing this, Chen Feng had no choice but to pour himself a third of the cup and drink it all.
At this time, the first truffle dish that several people had been waiting for for a long time was finally served, which is a traditional method of cutting the truffles into very thin slices with a special slicer, and then sprinkled with butter, Italian dry milk + on top of Italian hollow flour.
From a long distance, Chen Feng smelled the special fragrance emanating from this plate of white truffles, which was really different.
"Come, long, if you're going to eat white truffles, we'd better use this bottle of Rysling, so that we can better complement its deliciousness. Messer opened another bottle of wine from the table and filled it for Chen Feng personally.
Under his demonstration, Chen Feng also made it along, and then began to taste this white truffle worth at least hundreds of thousands of Hong Kong dollars.
After the first bite, I feel that the taste is just average, but then the taste buds on the tongue are mixed with the intoxicating aroma of the nose and lungs, perhaps because of the psychological effect, and I suddenly feel like I have ascended to heaven. Sure enough, it is known as "the delicacy of heaven".
"How, how does it feel?" Messer looked at Chen Feng with a smile.
"verygood!!" Chen Feng couldn't help but praise sincerely, after saying that, he was not polite to Messer and his family, and immediately put several thin slices into his mouth, chewed slowly, closed his eyes slightly, and enjoyed the delicious taste of this world. At the same time, he also sighed in his heart: It is good to have money! Speaking of which, he has more money than Messer, but the way he enjoys life, or the quality of life, is like the difference between an emperor and a beggar. No matter how much money you save, it's useless to take it out like Messer and buy planes, cruise ships, and islands...... There is also buying
Lu come and enjoy.
This first white truffle dish was quickly eaten by the four of them.
Jenny wiped her mouth with a napkin in satisfaction, and looked at Messer with some anticipation and said, "Dad, I'm addicted to eating delicious things, and in the future, I will eat it often." ”
Messer smiled dotingly and nodded at Jenny: "My baby, since you like it, I will have people buy it for you often in the future." I didn't expect it to taste so delicious. ”
Jenny nodded with satisfaction.
Soon, the second white dew dish also came up, which was made of Vandina+ milk, eggs, and milk with white truffles.
Messer again demonstrated: "Longg is a bread to eat together, and it will taste wonderful when I hear it." ”
Chen Feng did so...... It's so fucking delicious......
After that, two dishes of white truffles were served, and the four of them were very addicted.
After eating the fourth course, Chen Feng took a bite of Reisling and sighed: "Messer, just like Jenny said, I am addicted to eating this truffle this time." ”
Mel smiled: "If you want to eat in the future, you can come to my house at any time, and you can ask the prophet to know that good white truffles are not always available." ”
Chen Feng couldn't help but laugh happily: "Messer, after you are really a friend, if I come to Hong Kong, I will come to your house as a guest and eat this white truffle." ”
"Okay, yes, then I can follow Longg in the future. Jenny applauded happily.
Everyone laughed together again, and the banquet was filled with a cheerful atmosphere.
After eating a few more French dishes, Chen Feng stopped his knife and fork and gestured to Messer. Messer said in understanding: "Well, everyone has eaten almost this meal, let's leave, longg, if you don't mind, can you come with me out of my study to see my collection?"
"It's an honor!" Chen Feng nodded with a smile.
"Okay, then you come with me!" Messer stood up. Chen Feng then stood up and said goodbye to Agrice and Jenny.
Messer's study is on the second floor, the space is very large, at least 100 square meters, there is a long row of bookcases on the wall, which is full of books, it seems that there are at least 1,000 books, Chen Feng can't help but smack his tongue secretly, I don't know if Messer is furnishing so many books, or really take it to see; on the other wall is a huge flat monitor, at least 100 inches in length and width, and there are a lot of high-tech machines at the bottom, Chen Feng can't help but guess that this display screen is used for network video conferencing, and next to the huge display screen is hung a whiteboard, and a delicate world map is pasted next to the whiteboard, with a lot of colored markings on it.
After the two entered, Messer locked the door of the study, then walked to the desk and took a remote control, and pressed it a few times on the big screen, and the big screen showed a picture, which was a three-dimensional map of the world.
Messer said to Chen Feng excitedly: "Boss, at present, our FENGSAII's total assets are close to 500 billion US dollars, controlling about 82% of the world's total economy, it can be said that our FENGSAI is currently the largest consortium and economic entity known in the world! We can even buy an entire country." Please see, at present, our FENGSAI industries, branches and some of its holding subsidiaries around the world, etc., spread all over the five continents, especially in Europe and the United States, we have immeasurable economic influence. ”
The screen on the display shows a series of images, starting with Asia, then Europe, the Americas, Oceania, Africa, ...... Looking at Messer's appearance, he was obviously prepared, and this time can be regarded as his official work report in the past few years.
Messer gave a detailed explanation to Chen Feng while demonstrating, and it took more than an hour for Messer to explain, and Chen Feng finally knew the economic strength that FENGSAII currently mastered, and in his mind, he also wrote down all the economic resources currently mastered by Fengsai. Although he had already estimated this, he only knew that he was probable, and now he was so clearly explained by Messer that he could be regarded as fully understood, and it was really enough to praise and horror, and in just a few years, Messer had grown Fengsai to such a point, and the speed of development was inevitably too fast.
"MESSER, I REALLY DIDN'T EXPECT THAT OUR FENGSAI HAS GROWN TO SUCH A POINT NOW, IT SEEMS THAT I STILL UNDERESTIMATED THE DEVELOPMENT SPEED OF OUR FENGSAII BEFORE! AT THIS TIME, CHEN FENG'S EXPRESSION WAS ALSO A LITTLE EXCITED, THIS KIND OF STRENGTH OF FENGSAI IS ALREADY AN ECONOMIC EMPIRE, AND ITS ECONOMIC STRENGTH SHOULD NOT BE IGNORED EVEN BY A SUPERPOWER LIKE THE UNITED STATES.
Messer said with a straight face: "Boss, the real credit is still yours, if it weren't for the fact that under your wise command, we quickly accumulated hundreds of billions of dollars of wealth and laid a solid foundation, then there would be no FENGSAI today, and there would be no Holman Messer who is now infinitely beautiful." ”
