Chapter 788 The North Flag Mansion
Today is July 7th, an ordinary Saturday, but for Beiqi Mansion, today is the big boss of a distinguished customer. The mining industry has spread rapidly throughout Asia in recent years, and it has almost squeezed into the top three mining tycoons. It's the birthday of Su Huaquan's beloved wife.

The private kitchen of the Beiqi mansion is the most famous private kitchen in the coastal city, known as the tongue harvester for the rich.The mansion’s foreign-style houses and gardens are well-respected throughout the country, and the history of the mansion can be traced back to the period of the Republic of China.

A hundred years ago, this was the private residence of Feng Guozhang, the leader of the direct lineage of the Beiyang warlords. The pro-British and American style of the old landlords made the overall architectural style of the mansion a combination of European and American styles. The rent is as high as more than 500 million.

So it is not known whether it is the flashy private dishes or the high-profile and sought-after "upper class" environment of the mansion itself that actually harvests the rich.

Times have changed, and this place has become the most famous private kitchen in the entire coastal city. The owner of the mansion is very clever, perfectly combining private kitchen and top-notch, and actively creating a gimmick for high-class gatherings in private places to attract wealthy gentry.

Most people probably will never know this place exists in their whole life. It is said that there is no way to make reservations on the Internet or on the phone in the store. If you want to make a reservation, you must know the owner or manager of the mansion in private. Even so, the list of reservations often goes down. Three to four months later, it is difficult for ordinary wealthy people to book a seat at the right time.

But today, the Beiqi Mansion was booked out.

At the entrance of the mansion in Beiqi Mansion, at the end of the cobblestone path, in the center of the bronze lamp beads on both sides, Boss Chen paced back and forth a little restlessly, rolling up the sleeves of his brown suit from time to time, checking the diving watch on his wrist to confirm the time— —It is already 07 o'clock in the evening. According to the plan, the dinner party in the mansion will start at 30:[-], but now the back kitchen has not even lit the stove, and all the people who should be too busy to stay are in the mansion They waited anxiously for Boss Chen to issue orders. But they never imagined that Boss Chen was waiting just like them now, for a guest who should have arrived half an hour ago.

Tonight's dinner is very important. It is almost the most stressful event for Boss Chen this whole year. He has never been so nervous when his wife went to the hospital for a pregnancy test.This is only because the distinguished guests in the mansion are so important, so important that they can almost affect the trajectory of his future life.

Su Huaquan, known as Mr. Su, the boss of the Su Mining Group, has become a top tycoon in the mining industry in the entire Asia-Pacific region in just one or two years. It is no longer enough to describe this boss simply because he has a mine at home. What really makes Boss Chen pay attention to is the other party's The terrifying bottomless business circle almost connects the plutocratic groups in the entire European region. Every big man that Boss Chen can only look up to all his life has a good business chat with Mr. Su.

It is rumored that even the "Syndicate" in Europe has had business dealings with Su's Mining. This concept is far beyond the imagination of normal people. Most people may have never even heard of "Syndicate", let alone understand the meaning of it. .

In fact, if Mr. Su was just an ordinary rich tycoon, Boss Chen would probably not attach so much importance to this dinner, but the reason why he was nervous and excited tonight was that there were rumors that the mining boss had been thinking about his family. The industry is diversified, ready to enter the catering industry!

This news is said to be very reliable. Mr. Su is no longer satisfied with only being a leader in mining and exporting because of his huge network of connections. He is going to go all the way to real estate, catering and even some gray industrial chains. Boss Chen It is extremely suspicious that the other party came to their private kitchen this time to investigate the market under the pretense of their birthday—otherwise, why did President Su repeatedly emphasize that they should present the highest specifications for tonight's dinner and no mistakes are allowed?No such stern warning is needed for a normal birthday dinner.

Boss Chen has almost seen that if he plays perfectly tonight and shows his strength, once he can get on the bus of President Su, the entire industrial communication circle that radiates all over Asia only needs to separate a little bit of the nail shell, It is enough for his private kitchen business to grow bigger and stronger, no longer a petty play, and really go to the top step by step.

Therefore, for President Su's attention, he himself flew back from other places to receive him, and even brought a whole family to congratulate President Su's beloved wife on his birthday. The dishes that the leaders of the Zhili faction are full of praise, are served according to the highest standard.

All the waiters and servants of the mansion rehearsed today's dinner three days in advance. From the reception of the guests, no matter what the guests are interested in, they asked about any piece of art in the mansion, from the history of the mansion to the private kitchen. Everyone who is asked must know everything and talk endlessly, and if he gets stuck, he will pack up and leave tomorrow.

The chefs in the back kitchen also made preparations, typed up the introduction and background drafts of each dish dozens of times, and even prepared more than a dozen private recipes that have never been revealed, so as not to let Mr. I am interested in which dish and want to go home and practice it, but I don't know where to start.

Even Boss Chen's daughter has already sat in front of the piano in the hall to play a soundtrack. In order to understand Mr. Su's love shopping interest, Mrs. Chen studied the other party's clothing and jewelry styles overnight, just to be able to enjoy it while waiting for the reception. There is chat capital.

Everything was so well prepared, so perfect that there was nothing wrong with it, but when all the steps were about to be staged slowly, Mr. Su's sudden words stopped everything directly:

"There's still one person missing, just wait."

This sentence almost caused Boss Chen's head to crash. He even counted the number of Boss Su's family in a daze. Boss Su, Boss Su's beloved wife, and Boss Su's daughter are all present. Isn't tonight a private family dinner for President Su's wife's birthday?Could it be, Mr. Su, you still have a wife?

He certainly didn't know what to say. After arranging President Su's family to rest in the side hall, the enthusiasm of the entire mansion was extinguished, and everyone fell into the current state of waiting dryly. As for what to wait for ?Who are you waiting for?If President Su doesn't say anything, Boss Chen doesn't dare to ask!
In this way, the time passed to eight o'clock, and Boss Chen, who had been blowing the night wind outside the door for half an hour, was about to explode when his bladder was about to explode, when he suddenly heard the sound of an engine whistling on the road outside the mansion. , the light from the headlights also shone from a distance and was cut by Jing Yuan's fallen leaves and sprinkled on the cobblestone road.

He stood up straight for a moment, and his intuition told him that the person who was waiting in the entire Beiqi mansion tonight finally came.

—

The red Porsche 911 parked on the street of the Beiqi mansion in the coastal city. After the roaring engine was turned off, the evening tranquility enveloped the whole block in an instant. The gentle light from the garden penetrates through the green plants and illuminates Lin Nian's cheek in the window of the red sports car.

After the GPS navigation ended, Lin Nian mentioned the cake on the right co-pilot, and a figure came out from the mansion in the distance. After walking into the light, he could see clearly that it was the mansion receptionist wearing a black suit with the logo, and came quickly Helping Lin Nian gently opened the door and asked politely, "Good evening, sir, this is the private kitchen of the Beiqi Mansion. Did you make an appointment?"

"The location has been fixed." Lin Nian looked at the bungalow and garden with warm red lights behind the attendant. If there is no GPS navigation error, then he should have come to the right place.

"What is the reserved name?"

"Su Xiaoqiang." Lin Nian remembered that Su Xiaoqiang told her to give her name when he arrived.

"Boss Su has been waiting inside for a long time." The attendant's eyes lit up, and he immediately gave way to the open door to ask Lin Nian to get out of the car.

"Boss Su?" Lin Nian subconsciously didn't realize this name, and he gradually realized it under the strange gaze of the other party's blinking eyes. In the eyes of the owner of the mansion's private kitchen, today's protagonist is definitely not "Su." "Miss", but the real powerful father behind "Miss Su" in the eyes of outsiders.

"I will park the car for you. There are other people inside who will guide you to the mansion." The attendant took the car keys and led Lin Nian to the path in the garden in a very professional manner. There was indeed a security guard and attendant with a flashlight in front of him. step to come.

Lin Nian carried the birthday cake and walked along the beautifully decorated garden path. Along the way, the attendants around him followed him with flashlights to illuminate the cobblestone road under his feet, highlighting a thoughtful service.

When he walked to the entrance of the mansion, he noticed a middle-aged man in a brown formal suit and a slim waistcoat had been waiting there for a long time. He looked at his watch from time to time, and when he saw Lin Hou, he immediately walked up to him.

"Good evening sir, you are finally here." The man took a deep breath and walked quickly, and waved his hand to signal the waiter with the flashlight to leave, and looked up and down Lin Nian without leaving a trace, "Excuse me. What's your name?"

"Lin Nian." This was the third attendant who had changed on the road less than [-] meters away. Lin Nian didn't know why he paid so much attention here, but he still had the patience to strike up a conversation.

"Let me introduce myself, the owner of Beiqi Mansion, just call me Boss Chen." The man who claimed to be the owner of this luxury mansion squinted and observed Lin Nian, from his appearance to his clothes to his temperament (a white T-shirt and jeans) , "Ah Chen", "Xiao Chen", "Big Brother Chen" and other titles flashed through my mind, and finally I locked on the name of Boss Chen.

Calling Ah Chen is too close, and Lin Nian's age can even be his son, which is somewhat inappropriate; the name Xiao Chen is also the same, it is only suitable for the high-ranking people to call the low-ranking people casually, for example, he called himself Xiao Chen in front of President Su. Chen: Brother Chen is not a problem under normal circumstances. A group of people outside would like to call him "Big Brother" but now the problem lies in the fact that this young man's identity is very subtle. The other party said that his surname is Lin, not Su. , then the countless possibilities of his identity are extremely reduced in an instant.

——This is a lucky son-in-law who is very likely to be able to call himself "A Chen" or "Xiao Chen" after going to bed tonight!
Although judging from the current situation and his performance, at least Boss Chen felt that this kid might not be old anymore, but who could say for sure what happened next?So now he still chooses to keep a little relationship.

For a person like Boss Chen who has been in the society for many years and has already become a master, a single address can make his mind ups and downs. Thousands of thoughts flashed in an instant, and he kept pulling himself to understand the world. Looking at the cake in his hand and the log clock hanging outside the mansion.

Seeing him like this, Boss Chen didn't know how to be funny, so he immediately opened the door and led him into the aisle and corridor that was brightly lit and filled with porcelain murals, "Boss Su has been waiting inside and waiting for a long time. , you didn’t arrive, and the back kitchen didn’t turn on the stove.”

Lin Nian stepped on the marble floor of the corridor, with an artistic chandelier on his head, and walked through the astonishingly large white stone statue in the hall and the spiral staircase. Boss Chen was quietly observing this beauty online, but it was only The guy with online looks.

Chenglong Kuai’s identity as son-in-law can’t be shaken off anymore. From his debut in a “Nightclub 911” with at most a million dollars, to this outrageously casual attire, Boss Chen, relying on his many years of experience, basically bites Si Linnian was a boy who fell in love with Mr. Su's daughter by some kind of luck.

This made him both surprised and jealous.

The surprise is that this kind of kid who just relies on his face to eat and open nightclub artifacts 911 to come to the mansion can actually get Mr. Su's daughter, and the jealousy is because his wife gave birth to a daughter. Now it seems that even "Ji Hui" is gone. .
Walking all the way into the mansion, Boss Chen also found that this kid was not interested in the luxurious interior decoration of the mansion at all, he just kept his head on his way, and a lot of introductions he had prepared were useless. Is it because he treats money like dirt or simply knows himself Scared out of being half an hour late?
Boss Chen took a look at the box that the unlucky kid was holding. At first glance, it should be a cake. He couldn't have bought it at Thumbs on the way, right?

"How long have Su Xiaoqiang and the others been here?" Lin Nian asked as he walked up the stone stairs of the mansion.

"Boss Su and his wife arrived half an hour ago. Before that, Ms. Su came earlier, about an hour ago." Boss Chen followed Lin Nian and looked down at the diving watch on his wrist. Regretfully, "You're about four and ten minutes late."

After he finished speaking, he looked at Lin Nian with a sympathetic expression, as if he was a bit regretful when he saw the examiner of a student who was late for the college entrance examination.

"Something is delayed." Lin Nian explained.

What can make you let Mr. Su's family dove for half an hour?It's still in this situation of mother-in-law's birthday. Hey, I don't think there will be a chance to call this mother-in-law in the future.

Boss Chen remained expressionless, and when he was climbing the stairs behind Lin Nian, he gave winks and gestures to the waiters along the road, indicating that the back kitchen could start the fire, and hoped that the dinner could go on normally after being half an hour late.After all, according to Boss Chen's temper, if his future son-in-law can let him go for half an hour in this situation and wants to marry his daughter, he has to let this bastard eat the empty plate and kick him out!
Along the way to the second floor, Boss Chen also walked quickly to Lin Nian to lead the way, and stopped when he came to a double wooden door in a side hall. Behind the door, there was a graceful piano sound, not like an audio playback but a live performance. Turning to look at Lin Nian, he moistened his lips and said, "President Su's family has been waiting inside for a long time (he bit the word hard), does Mr. Lin need to prepare?"

"Preparing for what?" Lin Nian asked subconsciously.

Boss Chen sighed inwardly, you deserved to be humiliated by President Su for a while, if there was a quarrel, would he still have to come forward and be a peacemaker?But wouldn't this ruin his cooperation plan with Mr. Su all at once?
Young man, it's unreliable!

He hated so much that he could only push open the door swallowing his anger. In the glamorous hall behind the door, the three pairs of eyes on the sofa seat that were originally focused on the beautiful player in front of the grand piano instantly focused on the door. boy with cake.
