Lady Lin's First-ever Journey to Immortality

Chapter 461 Dear, How About Restaurant Chains?

“Have you ever tasted the barbecue on the Jennifer Avenue?”

A fat middle-aged man is talking about barbecue. His expression is so obscene that people who don’t know it may think he is talking about a new brothel on the Jennifer Avenue. But his tone totally provokes his friends’ interest. When these good friends get off work, they go to No. 281 on the Jennifer Avenue, bending their arms round each other’s shoulders. In laughter, this has become a new fashion among lower middle classes in the Maple Leaf City.

“Master, the barbecue you just ordered is here.”

After waiting ages in long lines, polite butler hands the barbecue to the nobleman sitting in a carriage. It feels like Maffia doing business—the man inside is definitely a proud noble who is curious about the legendary barbecue on the Jennifer Avenue. He finally figures out a way to satisfy his appetite without losing his face.

Such kind of things happens in many places in the Maple Leaf City. “Hot Girl” has become a new fashion which the young and the old both love in just a few days.

The technological civilization of the Nami Alliance has reached a bottleneck. It’s not as dark or decaying as Windsor said. However, this place lacks passion. It’s true that most Nami people only follow orders steps by steps and then their lives come to an end in this way… they hope something different will happen to their life. Therefore, a small barbecue restaurant goes viral when it brings them a real “spicy feeling”. It is normal for Nami people but it is beyond Lin Luoran and others’ expectations.

On the sixth day after they began their barbecue restaurant business, Lin Luoran’s wish to sell chilies has almost fulfilled. Seven or eight famous merchants have come to visit, hoping to buy this new type of spices called “chilies”.

Of course, most of them feel it is the best if they can be the monopoly.

After all, they are not a bunch of fools. They all know that only monopoly can maximize the benefits!

This is contrary to Lin Luoran’s original intention to promote chilies.

If big merchants really control chilies, it means that ordinary civilians can’t reach this taste for a long time until merchants breed more chilies with chilies seed. Only then will the price drop and can civilians also afford it.

Lin Luoran doesn’t want this to happen at all.

She doesn’t mind making a lot of money with chilies or doing the monopoly business. However, she doesn’t want to be a fool who sends the chance of benefits to Nami businessmen for free—people are the most stupid when they get the chance to make money but give up.

At this stage of the negotiation, they can only reach a deadlock if both sides do not give in. At this moment, every businessman who comes to “Hot Girl” for business receives an invitation.

“Dear sir, ‘Hot Girl’ invites you to discuss the issue of the dealership at 7 pm tomorrow. You can bring your partners if you want.”

What the hell? 7 P.M. is everyone’s dinner time in the Maple Leaf City. Do they want to hold a dinner party in the shabby backyard of the “Hot Girl”?

Bring partners? All businessmen are so confused.

One of the merchants’ sons serves the royal family and he is the personal waiter of the third prince. He feels that this is a good chance to please the prince. After discussing with his father, the ordinary invitation has been handed to the obese third prince.

Thinking of the kebab wrapped in red oil, the third prince’s mouth waters.

What? He can bring a partner? Who?

He feels it very difficult. In the eyes of a foodie, delicious food is the ultimate goal of his life. Perhaps in the eyes of other nobles, this invitation letter from a civilian barbecue restaurant is totally beneath them. However, the third prince who is such a foodie feels that this is much more valuable than the invitation letter of the Royal Jockey Club or a noble wine party.

Bringing a partner is such a big problem for him until he runs into a woman in a pink tutu.

This beautiful woman does not wear any makeup and only her lips are coated with a light lipstick. Her hair is loosely tied up and it’s bud-like hairstyle. A small crown of diamonds is on her head and it makes this woman’s gorgeous face looks dignified.

“Brother, do you need to learn etiquette class again?”

The woman smiles gently without showing her teeth with an impeccable gentle expression. However, it makes the third prince twist. The foodie immediately gets an idea. He raises the invitation letter in his hand, “Beautiful princess, your younger brother is just about to invite you to attend a dinner party which may not be very luxurious but will absolutely be very delicious.”

“Dinner party?” The princess takes over the invitation letter. Her side face looks extremely gentle when she is thinking.

The third prince feels that if the princess keeps smiling so “gently” like this, his stomach will also twitch.

Why does he have a feeling of vomiting? Is it because he had two extra chicken legs at lunch?

…

No silver plates, no candlesticks, no candles, no red dining table cloth? However about flowers or fruit? Are you dreaming? Definitely not!

Damn it! There’s not even a crystal chandelier here.

Businessmen come here with their female companions who are all dressed up and walk through the former shop which is still not closed. They feel so embarrassed but they have to bear it for making money. However, when they come to the backyard, they feel restless again.

Well, there is a big oak tree in the yard and the space under the tree is enough for two large round tables. There are no chandeliers but there are some red lanterns on the trees which look a little warmer than dancing candlelight. This may be the only reason why businessmen and their female companions don’t leave immediately? They all agree that it has an exotic atmosphere.

Colin Weir smiles like a pimp. He is very attentive and tries to guide everyone to sit around the table. It is a pity that one of the eight invitations receivers doesn’t come yet and Colin has already served food.

Two beautiful young girls with rare black hair and black eyes among Nami people are holding big white plates on which red chilies are stuffed with small pieces of meat.

“This is spicy chicken. Enjoy! ”

Spicy chicken? A new dish? Merchants feel it interesting and they can count on Hot Girl which may be showing them what dishes can chilies match.

However, it is strange that they don’t provide smaller plates… these guests are not close friends and this is very rare according to the dining etiquette of Nami people.

Since they have been here, they can only try it. Many people struggle for a while and still taste the chicken nuggets with spoons.

It’s so spicy! Their throats are smoking! The merchants who try the dish burst into tears, not knowing whether to swallow or vomit.

Etiquette… Nami is an aristocratic planet of ceremonies. They have to show this restaurant their manner… After comforting themselves, they swallow the chicken nuggets like poison.

In order to do business with foreign nations, we have to bear! We have to bear it!

Other businessmen are unwilling to fall behind. They all eat spicy chicken nuggets with fake smiles.

It’s so spicy that they can feel their smoking throat. After drinking a lot of water, they still keep eating when they look at the chicken nuggets hidden in the dry chilies.

In the end, they scramble for the last piece of spicy chicken.

Colin Weir shows a contented smile.

The second dish is still served on a big white dish.

“This is shredded red pepper. Enjoy!”

Red chilies are much thicker than the chilies they have ever seen. Even though they are thicker, they are still chilies, right?

Everyone uses the way how they eat spicy chicken. With spoons and forks, they sweep the shredded meat. Oh, the taste of this dish is moderate. It is not as spicy as the previous one. It is mild and delicious. That’s really nice.

However, why does the representative of the restaurant Colin Weir who they have kind of being familiar with chooses to taste chilies abnormally?

A female partner of one merchant tries to taste a little. It’s not spicy at all! This outwardly strong but inwardly weak thing is sweet and crunchy!

Okay, another type of chilies is shown.

After the taste of the red pepper, the merchants feel that this can fully enrich Maple Leaf City’s vegetable market. It seems that they have too little information about chilies.

The businessmen’s impetuous feelings finally disappear.

At this time, the black-haired and black-eyed young girl brings the third dish.

“This is Tiger Skin Pepper. Enjoy!”

Both sides of the large green chilies are fried into a browned color. It tastes a little spicy and sour, like fruit vinegar. What about the salty taste? It doesn’t like salt… is it a new seasoning? A green light called “credit points” is shining in these merchants’ eyes. Poor Nami merchants do not know that this soy sauce is harder to get than chilies. Lin Luoran brews it so hard and she doesn’t want to sell it at all.

“This is Mapo doufu. Enjoy!”

What? What is Mapo! Another new seasoning? Gods, please just kill me with a thunder!

“This is boiled fish. Enjoy!”

Boohoo… damn Hot Girl! They invite them here for selling spices or for building restaurant chains?

They have never known any dishes and all of them can be sold as main dishes, which means plenty of credit points. If they give up the chance of making money, even gods will disdain them!

The merchants now all get their own plans. The really enjoy such kind of domineering taste. Compared to chilies, they feel that making these dishes popular in Nami Alliance may be more beneficial.

Everyone is thinking about how to talk about the business while eating. Several big white plates on the table quickly become clean. They are still thinking about it. Why do the two beautiful girls who served before stop bringing more dishes?

They communicate their regretful emotion silently. Colin Weir sees everything in his eyes and feels that it’s time to stop tantalizing them.

The wind chimes in the backyard ring and someone comes in.

A fat man is holding an invitation in his hand. His eyes glance at the two tables with only leftovers and he asks quiveringly, “Is this the wrong place?”

Ah, I will never accept the answer that you guys have finished all food! I hate you guys!

Behind the fat man, a woman who comes slowly but dignified finally make Colin Weir stands up.

“Why are you guys here?”
