Chapter 504: Chapter 414: 200,000 RMB for one (please subscribe!)_1 Li Jianguo didn’t explain, only gave Tang Qing a resentful look. Last time the crabs were a hundred thousand each, and this time he suspects they might be two hundred thousand each considering the size. Upon seeing this look, Tang Qing seemed to understand something and couldn’t help but chuckle. "Uncle Li, if you’re craving for it, just cook one up. If you eat it slowly, it will satisfy your craving." It appears that the price of a hundred thousand each from last time has scared off Li Jianguo. He didn’t dare to eat it. Upon hearing this, Li Jianguo gave Tang Qing a displeased look, and said, "Those things are so expensive, how dare I eat them alone without you guys here." Then he glanced at Tang Qing’s Second Uncle and his family behind him, quickly moved forward, and said with a smile, "This must be your Second Uncle, hello there." "Hello," Tang Kai smiled. Li Jianguo shook hands with Tang Kai. Seeing this scene, he couldn’t help inwardly exclaiming, this is truly a big boss. Tang Qing also immediately introduced Li Jianguo. After exchanging pleasantries for a while, they went upstairs. At this time, The hall of the Seafood Restaurant was full of people, bustling with activity. Ever since its opening, thanks to various promotions and advertisements, business has been booming. Most people got discount coupons from elsewhere and then came here to try the seafood. There are many sources of the discount coupons, such as the Sheng Tang Group, along with the jewelry stores of both the Lin family and Tang family, and other companies supervised by Sky Eye. The Seafood Restaurant’s discount coupons are available at all major outlets of the Tian Gan Group and Dream Melody Group in Qingyan City. Because Tang Qing has shares in the restaurant, Dou Jiao is also using her power for personal gain, forming a promotional alliance of mutual interest with everyone else. For example, when you shop at Sheng Tang, You can choose discount coupons from various industries of Tian Gan Group, or the Seafood Restaurant and other industries. Helping each other out. Supporting each other. This strategy benefits everyone. When the customers see that buying one thing can reap so many benefits, the word of mouth will greatly boost the businesses of all the companies. It can indeed be considered a pleasant surprise. If there were no other channels to bring in customers, the Seafood Restaurant would not have half the business it has now. On the other side, Tang Qing’s parents, uncles, and the others were waiting in the private room. The jewelry stores of both the Tang and Lin families had closed early, and each had dressed up before coming here. They weren’t psychologically prepared the last time they met Tang Kai, so they couldn’t be careless this time when meeting the younger sister and her family. Even Mother Tang, who is usually humble, wore a few pieces of jewelry. However, Tang Qing knew that she would put these back in the store to sell after returning. Though it might seem a bit odd, Mother Tang, who was always conservative, would feel heartbroken for occupying such expensive jewelry. Li Jianguo led the way. Upon arriving at the entrance of the private room, Tang Qing moved forward a few steps and played the role of a doorman. When Tang Qing walked in, everyone’s eyes were on the entrance. They saw Tang Kai and Youman and Tang Nian’er, who they had never seen before. One by one, they stood up. With so many people staring at her, Tang Nian’er felt a bit shy and curiously looked at these relatives of hers. "Brother," Tang Kai called out happily. "Hmm, it’s great that you’re back, it’s great. This must be your younger sister and niece, right? You’ve finally come back," Tang Qing’s father said excitedly. His late father always missed his younger brother’s family; now that they’re back, he can finally fulfill his father’s wish. "Brother, let everyone sit down for now. I’ll introduce everyone properly later." Seeing everyone standing up, Tang Kai quickly said. "Good, good, come take a seat." Tang Qing’s father also felt inappropriate to introduce everyone at the doorway. After everyone had seated, They introduced themselves. Of course, There were also quite a few gifts. After many polite rejections and insistences, Tang Qing was starting to break a sweat from the commotion. The adults sat together to chat about recent events. Tang Qing sat next to Lin Jiaxue, holding her little hand, and peeling seeds for her. He fed her one by one, clearly delighted. Mother Tang and the others were entertaining Youman, and Tang Nian’er was pulled aside by the chatty Qin Shiqi. "Sister Nian’er, what grade are you in?" "Sister Nian’er, you’re really pretty, just like my sister." "Sister Nian’er, do you have any hobbies? Let me tell you, my sister likes gardening. I don’t understand what’s so interesting about it since they are only green plants. I like all kinds of flowers, but they’re hard to care for and easily wilt. When I have time, I’ll take you to see them, I..." "..." Tang Nian’er was surrounded by Qin Shiqi’s questions. Because of her quiet personality, and having few friends due to being in a foreign country with transportation provided for her to and from school, she hardly ever had the chance to go out and play. Moreover, because of safety concerns in Thailand, her parents would not allow her to go out alone. In the past, she always played alone, played the piano alone, learned guzheng alone. Maybe it was her natural talent, but she was proficient in more than a dozen musical instruments, but had never showed her skills in front of others. Only her parents and the family’s music teacher knew, of course, along with the bodyguards and servants. Qin Shiqi was admittedly chatty, but it allowed Tang Nian’er to feel a strong sense of family. She quickly became familiar with Qin Sihqi’s two sisters. Lin Jiaxue was occupied by Tang Qing, so they didn’t communicate that much, but there was still plenty of time ahead, they were family after all, they would not keep their distance. The dishes slowly filled the table. "Tangtang, why are these crabs so much larger than last time?" Tang Qing’s father asked, looking at the massive crabs on the table. He wondered if they were injected with hormones, considering the substantial increase in size. Can green crabs really grow this big? Tang’s father felt a bit out of the loop. "Dad, this batch is a premium one," Tang Qing hastily explained, thinking to himself that he should have gotten ’small’ crabs like he did before. There were simply too huge to explain away. Father Tang was not suspicious, just eager to eat. He said, "Then let’s eat quickly. Little brother, have a taste. This was given by a friend of Tang Qing. The flavour is absolutely authentic. I guarantee you couldn’t find it anywhere else." As he spoke. Despite his own desire to eat, Father Tang picked up a crab for Tang Kai. Mother Tang also quickly offered one to Youman. Following their lead, Qin Shiqi wasn’t one to be left out. "Nian’er, come on, this crab is indescribably delicious. I can’t stand it, I’m going to start eating first." With that, Qin Shiqi grabbed one for herself, swiftly peeled off the shell, and started to eat. Her face was full of enjoyment. The Kai family wasn’t in such a hurry to indulge themselves and looked quite surprised to see them eating their crabs in such a hurry. 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚 Is it really that delicious? It’s extraordinary. Tang Kai and others were skeptical but gave it a try. Then. ...they simply couldn’t stop. Of course. Tang Qing was an exception. If outsiders saw this, they might think these families had never had crab before. Li Jianguo, who had just finished serving the dishes, quickly joined the force of eaters. To make sure nothing went to waste, he even brought a little knife with him, scraping off every bit of shell to consume. After the meal. "Tang Tang, is this friend of yours the friend?" Tang Kai questioned. He had truly felt the strength of Tang Qing’s friend. And now, with these delicious seafood coming in, he was just a bit surprised. "Yes, these are wild seafood grown in his sea area. Due to the unique geographical conditions there, the magnetic field is quite chaotic, which makes the seafood taste even better. Plus, it has other uses too, like health preservation and curing minor colds. However, these are not for sale, they are gifts for friends. They’re extremely valuable, and money can’t buy them." Tang Qing admitted. Hearing this, Tang Kai was somewhat disappointed. The seafood was incredibly delicious, and even if it was expensive, he didn’t mind. "What a pity. If they were on the market, they would undoubtedly sell like hot cakes," Tang Kai said, shaking his head. If they were only given as gifts and not sold, what would he do if he wanted to eat them again? It was the first time he had felt so attracted to food, as if he were a starving man. The desire was odd, but he knew that Tang Qing wouldn’t do anything to harm them. "Indeed. But my friend is already rich. While we might not be able to keep up with the production if we were to eat these every day, once a week is manageable." Tang Qing promised. At this, the first person to be stunned was Li Jianguo. Once a week? Several million RMB just gone like that? How rich was this friend? It seemed wasteful, even if he was rich. However, everyone else was delighted to hear that. Once a week, they could accept. "Tang Tang, we can’t just take these for free, at least let us offer some money, how much do you think is suitable?" Tang Kai brought up again. "Um... Uncle, better not. He doesn’t need the money," Tang Qing said with a wry smile. "No, we can’t just freely take things from him." Mother Tang interjected. Tang Qing saw that he couldn’t avoid the issue anymore. To stop them from randomly sending these as gifts later, he simply said, "Mom, these items are intrinsically valuable, in fact priceless. For example, when someone offered RMB 200,000 for a single crab, he refused to sell. He gave them to me because we are friends, regardless of the profits involved. So it’s best not to bring money into this." Everyone present was shocked! Except for Li Jianguo, who had already been ’informed’ of the truth. "What? He wouldn’t sell even for 200,000 per piece? Is this crab made of gold?"" Mother Tang exclaimed. Her hand shook and the beverage in her hand almost spilled onto the table. "Yes, Tang Tang, so you’re saying that I just consumed over a million in a while?" Tang’s father felt dizzy. My goodness, this meal, although delicious, was certainly a pain in my wallet. Everyone else felt the same way. It was unbelievable! Tang Qing immediately waved his hands and explained, "No, no, you’ve got it wrong. It’s not actually 200,000 per piece, they simply didn’t want to buy it, it’s not the market price. These are priceless items. So, treat it like fruit you eat usually." If he mentioned a few thousand, his wealthy uncle might buy a lot and send them out as gifts everywhere. If the secret got out, it would be a problem. The others were left speechless. Eating fruit. Where could you find such expensive fruit? No wonder it was so delicious. It was so valuable. Looking at the shells scattered across the table, all they could see was money. Finally, the uncle spoke up: "Alright, it seems these things indeed are not ordinary. They do seem to have some use. I usually have a bit of an upset stomach but it feels like it’s gradually disappearing right now. It even feels warm inside. Initially, I intended to buy some to give away as gifts but now it seems that I might not be able to afford it. Seeing how precious it is, let’s save it for our family." PS: The first Chapter.
