Chapter 481 Make friends and make friends

As one of the newly promoted high-end restaurants in Nanzhou, Shibao Pavilion is undoubtedly the newcomer. When the restaurant was just opened, many people thought that if it was not that easy to build this restaurant.

Anyone who knows the existence of the owner of Shibao Pavilion knows that the owner of the store is only the owner of a seafood restaurant from a small town under Nanzhou. Now he is coming to Nanzhou to build a high-end seafood restaurant, how can it be so easy to be recognized by diners?

But no one expected that since its opening, the Shibao Pavilion business has been in short supply. If at the beginning, many diners were looking for the shareholder Zhao Penglin, then now, others have to curry favor with Zhao Penglin if they want to have a meal.

The reason is very simple. Nowadays, Shibao Pavilion is basically booked online in advance. If you go directly on that day, there is a high probability that you will not be able to book a private room. If you really want to make a reservation, you can only wait until the reservation diners finish eating and go over the table and have a meal.

Even so, the restaurant's private rooms are still in short supply. At 9 o'clock in the evening, other restaurants are basically in the stage of fighting. You can drive to the diners' hall, and Zhuang Haiyang and his party found that the restaurant is still full of guests.

Seeing this scene, Zhuang Haiyang also smiled and said, "It seems that the business in the store is really more prosperous than I thought!"

"That's natural! With the ingredients we provide, how can the business in the store be bad?"

Before he got off the car and entered the restaurant, he looked at Chen Chong who was jogging out, and said with a depressed look on his face: "You guy, are you willing to come and have a look? I think you really shouldn't work with you. Now you let my father and son work for you!"

"Fatty, you're wrong! As far as I know, Xiao Chen of Shibao Pavilion is now very popular in Nanzhou! I'm afraid there are many young second generations who come to you through the back door every day? Don't behave like a cheap one!"

"Damn, you know all these things?"

"What do you think! OK, where is your dad?"

"It's upstairs! By the way, what good ingredients did you bring this time?"

Although he complained that Zhuang Haiyang was not in charge of the matter, the father and son knew in his heart that the most fundamental reason why Shibao Pavilion could have such a prosperous business now is not because of their business, but because of the ingredients provided by Zhuang Haiyang.

As the second shareholder of the store, they have earned back the capital they invested since their opening. Now the net profit of the restaurant every month, and the income they can only share, is more than the seafood restaurant they run in the town.

At present, Chen Xingwang handed over the seafood restaurant in the town directly to his trusted subordinates to manage it. Although the income is a little worse than his time, the monthly income is still quite large. With the dividends from Shibao Pavilion, their family's income has also increased sharply.

The most important thing is that with management or as shareholders of the restaurant, the Chen family and his son have also established many connections in Nanzhou. In the past, they had to curry favor with the powerful and wealthy people, but now they sometimes have to curry favor with them.

The reason is that the father and son have the best ingredients that both rich and powerful like?

As soon as he walked into the restaurant and looked at Chen Xingwang walking downstairs, Zhuang Haiyang also smiled and said hello: "Uncle Chen, thank you for your hard work."

"You guy is willing to come back! Tell me, what ingredients did you send me this time?"

"Are you so anxious?"

"Of course! By the way, there should be steak this time? There was a table of guests at night, and I was an old friend. They booked several times before, but they couldn't book a steak. If there were, I'd like to arrange it for them later."

"Yes! This time I returned to China, I slaughtered six commercial cows in one go. Except for the ones I left and gave to Uncle Zhao and others, I pulled all the rest over. Now, steaks, beef offals and so on should be moved to the cold storage."

When Chen Xingwang heard this, he said excitedly, "Okay! With these steaks, the restaurant will probably not worry about business in the past two months. Since the restaurant sells the steak you provide, no one wants to eat other beef!"

"It's okay! Anyway, our restaurant focuses on seafood. This time I pulled hundreds of top-quality king crabs. A little later, you can contact the high-end hotel restaurant you have made, ask them if they need it, and you can sell some for them!"

"Ah! King crabs are also quite popular. If the supply is sufficient, it would be a problem to sell one or two hundred a day in the restaurant!"

Just as Chen Xingwang said these words, Zhuang Haiyang quickly said: "These king crabs are alive and probably won't last long. There are still a batch of them on my fishing boat. At this moment, the Antarctic Sea can no longer catch king crabs."

"Okay! Then I will arrange this for you tomorrow. Let's go and see a friend with me? The abalone you got was also bought by someone at a high price. I originally wanted to introduce you to you, but I have never found a suitable opportunity."

"Who is it that you value it so much?"

Facing Zhuang Haiyang's inquiry, Chen Xingwang said without hiding it: "The chairman of Hainiu Group has also supported me in his early years. Speaking of which, he and Lao Zhao are also among the same group of rising local wealthy people, and they have a wide connection here."

"Okay! Since I am Uncle Chen's friend, I should really get to know each other. Instruct the kitchen, each guest to give him a steak, make a few beef dishes, cut a plate of yellowfin tuna fillets, and treat me as a treat. Don't you mind?"

As the major shareholder, Chen Xingwang naturally had no objection to Zhuang Haiyang's decision. After all, the ingredients are all from Zhuang Haiyang. The dividends are also the ones that Zhuang Haiyang takes the big head. He is so generous, which is also a big deal for Chen Xingwang!

After laughing, Chen Xingwang asked his son to inform the kitchen to prepare dishes, and he took Zhuang Haiyang to the large private room on the third floor. As Chen Xingwang stepped into the private room, the middle-aged man in the lead also smiled and said, "Old Chen, is this?"

"Brother Niu, this is Xiaozhuang. Haiyang, this is Dong Niu!"

"Hello, Duke Niu! I am Zhuang Haiyang. I have been hearing Uncle Chen say that you are the friend he admires the most. I originally wanted to visit you with Uncle Chen, but I was always busy. It is rare to have a chance, so I took the liberty to bother you, don't you mind?"

Listening to Zhuang Haiyang's words, Niu Zhenyu also felt very proud and said: "Mr. Zhuang, you are too polite. Speaking of which, we have considered dealing with each other, but we have never had the chance to meet. It seems that you are really busy!"

"It's a rare opportunity today. I asked the kitchen to add some food. I hope you can wait and see you!"

"We never refuse something delicious!"

After some courtesy, Zhuang Haiyang was also invited to sit in the seat. This time he came to the restaurant, but he did not bring Virgin Li and the others. At this time, they and their children were staying in the resort, so it would be okay for Zhuang Haiyang to go back later.

As the first dish was served, Zhuang Haiyang also smiled and said, "This is the tuna sashimi I shipped back from China. Although it was frozen, the taste may not be as good as fresh, but everyone can try it."

"You should try the sashimi cut from tuna. This sashimi looks quite fresh!"

"Well! The yellowfin tuna caught from the Antarctic Sea is quick to freeze and refrigerate to keep fresh."

As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned for a moment and said, "Yellowfin tuna? You really need to try it!"

Tuna is also divided into different levels. Among them, the sashimi cut from yellowfin tuna is undoubtedly the most expensive. If you have to pay for a plate of sashimi, it will probably cost tens of thousands or even more expensive.

After tasting the taste of sashimi, a plate of steak was soon sent by the waiter. Seeing these steaks, Niu Zhenyu also smiled and said, "Ocean, this steak should be raised by your ranch, right?"

"It seems that Uncle Niu is really worthy of being a gourmet! That's right, this time I returned to China, I slaughtered a few heads, cut them all into commercial steaks, and other beef offals and beef. Because the quantity is not large, I can only adopt a strategy of restricting sales."

As Zhuang Haiyang said this, a guest sitting in the same seat smiled and said, "Old Niu, it seems that you have really benefited from you today. I have eaten this steak here three or four times, but I haven't encountered it once. This time, I can finally taste the steak."

What surprised everyone was that Niu Zhenyu also smiled and said, "It seems like I've eaten it secretly! I've been greedy for a long time! Lao Zhao, then I'll bring people here for dinner two days tomorrow. Can this steak be booked in advance?"

"Okay! It was really out of stock before. You can make reservations in advance now, so I will definitely keep it for you."

As everyone started to cut the steak, the beef that he could eat was indeed eaten. He first cut it open and looked at the patterns, and finally swallowed it into his mouth and chewed it. He felt the delicious taste of beef exploded in his mouth, and he also showed an extremely enjoyable expression.

"Okay! No wonder those guys would say that after eating the steak from Shibaoge, they could not eat the steak from other Western restaurants. The taste of this steak is really amazing. It is a bit more delicious than the Wagyu beef I have eaten before!"

Listening to everyone's praise, Zhuang Haiyang smiled and didn't say much. For him, he had been tired of eating this steak. Now the only seafood that he really missed was the Dinghaizhu space.

If these people had the opportunity to taste the seafood raised in Dinghaizhu space, they would probably think that other seafood tasted badly. Fortunately, Zhuang Haiyang never thought of selling such a rare seafood.

When the last few dishes were brought over, everyone found that each dish made them unable to stop chopsticks. At the end, Niu Zhenyu and others couldn't help but smile bitterly: "For the first time I found out that our combat effectiveness is still very good!"

"Well! Just eating this meal will probably grow two pounds of meat!"

Even if it was the first time we met, Zhuang Haiyang and Niu Zhenyu had a happy chat when they first met. When they learned that the other party was engaged in shipping and sea trade, Zhuang Haiyang also knew that the other party knew Haiyang very well.

However, in the short term, there is really nothing to cooperate with both sides. However, as a well-known entrepreneur in Nanzhou, making such connections is not harmful to Zhuang Haiyang.

Even in terms of current value and status, Zhuang Haiyang is not bad for Niu Zhenyu. Even from the enthusiasm shown by these guests, it can be seen that making contacts with these guests has more important opinions.

The restaurant’s gold card members and the salvage company’s gold card customers are all the circles that these people hope to integrate into. When the banquet ended and Niu Zhenyu left, Zhuang Haiyang also prepared a gift package.

Seeing these things given, Niu Zhenyu said happily: "Although I feel a little embarrassed, you are all what I hope for, so I won't be polite to you."

"See what you said! I heard Uncle Chen say that you have taken care of his business a lot in the past! These things seem to be very valuable to outsiders. For me, they are the only ones that can be given to others, so don't mind."

"Okay! Although this is our first time meeting, if you have time in the future, let Lao Zhao bring you to my house. Also, if there is really something delicious in the future, I must think about ordering me. I am still very passionate about eating this part!"

In the eyes of others, as the chairman of a listed company, Niu Zhenyu has never eaten anything delicious? But when he arrived at Shibao Pavilion, many things may not be able to buy with money. Niu Zhenyu could only entrust Zhao Xingwang to provide them with local chickens alone.

As a rare good thing like steak, it is hard to find in China. Now that Zhuang Haiyang is so generous, he still feels very satisfied with giving him a gift box. Naturally, his feelings and evaluation of Zhuang Haiyang are much better.

After seeing off these guests and looking at the time, Zhuang Haiyang also said at the right time: "Uncle, it's not too early, so I'll say goodbye first. I'll stay on the island these days. However, I may not have time to come to the restaurant and plan to accompany my concubine and my sister."

"Okay! The things in the store are on track now, and you don't have to watch them every day. With the ingredients you sent, I will arrange the rest. I guess our restaurant will be busy again during this period!"

"The business is good, you don't like it yet! I'll go see my aunt and the others next time I have time!"

"Okay, you can come anytime. Just so happen that I bought a house here some time ago, so I don't have to invite anything in the restaurant. I'll contact you tomorrow. I'll call you again."

After talking about these things, Zhuang Haiyang took Hong Wei and others to drive to the booked resort hotel. That night, Chen Xingwang, Zhao Penglin and others seemed to have become busy again.

There are those who booked private rooms and rare dishes, and those who made an appointment to participate in private auctions. There are also news that a batch of shipwreck treasures were sent to the warehouse, but they still couldn't hide too many interested people.

The result is obvious that many buyers who love collecting hope to ask for a private auction. For them, there are never too many good things. Antiques in prosperous times, gold in troubled times, and having extra money to collect antiques has also become the choice of many rich people.

Compared to participating in so-called auctions, sometimes you may also auction fakes. If you participate in private auctions of treasure salvage companies, you can get relatively cheap and there are no good collections of fakes. Who would like to miss this opportunity?

As before, I stayed in the hotel for one night the next day and started to relax and entertain in Zhuang Haiyang, where I did not go to the salvage company. And the elderly in the capital, like the previous few times, flew to Nanzhou Island.

After watching salvage videos and salvaged things, many elderly people are more interested in it. They even planned to purchase a batch of the salvaged gold on behalf of the country. Zhuang Haiyang, Zhao Penglin and others did not refuse this request.
