Chapter 69
Days passed by, and soon it was only ten days left before the school reopened .
And one day before the Longxuan Restaurant opened for business .
“Director Wang, the things you wanted are ready!”
When Manager Huang saw the arrival of Wang Xian early in the morning, he was worried sick . He could not help but ask, “Director Wang, almost everyone in the Rivertown knows that the Longxuan Restaurant will be opening soon . Given the market responses, many people will turn up in their restaurant on the first day . How should we deal with this?”
“It’s okay . Make sure the things are ready!”
Wang Xian did not answer his question directly as he looked at the entrance with a smiling face .
These few days, Wang Xian got Manager Huang to prepare a few showcase boxes like those that could be seen in the market .
However, the showcase boxes that came with frozen storage were much more high class and exquisite .
The four showcase boxes were located on both sides of the entrance while a huge aquarium was situated in the center . However, there was no ornamental fish in the aquarium .
“It’s done . Director Wang . Look at all the imported equipment . They neither obstruct the visual nor the passageway,” said Manager Huang, frowning .
“Shuqing, have you printed out all our promotions?” Wang Xian asked with a smile .
“Yes, they are done . We can start our promotions anytime,” said Guan Shuqing with a grin .
“Great, I’ll get the people to move in the stuff in the afternoon!” Wang Xian nodded .
“Xiao Xian, are you confident in winning against the Longxuan Restaurant?” Guan Shuqing asked with some concerns .
“No problem . ” Wang Xian nodded .
Seeing Wang Xian acting so secretively, both Guan Shuqing and Manager Huang did not ask anything further . All they did was wait quietly .
Longxuan Restaurant in the distance had already hung up huge red lanterns with fabulous decorations at the entrance .
Just on advertising and promotions alone, Longxuan Restaurant had spent millions in five days . With such a substantial investment in marketing, the results were visible . Some passers-by even made enquiries in the daytime today .
At three in the afternoon, an old man, together with six young men, walked in . The old man was burly while the rest of the young men exuded fearsome auras .
They were carrying things in their hands .
“Our operating hours start at 5 pm…”
“All of you are here . Move the things over here!” Wang Xian intercepted the receptionist when he saw Mo Qinglong and the Dragonians .
“Wang!” When Mo Qinglong saw Wang Xian, he quickly walked over and addressed him respectfully .
Wang Xian requested him to address him in this way . After all, addressing him as ‘Dragon King’ was way too high-profile .
And ‘Wang’ (aka ‘the King’) seemed like a shorter nickname Wang Xian .
“Bring the things over!” Wang Xian stood up and said .
Guan Shuqing, Manager Huang, and the rest of the chefs did not rest . They all stood up and checked out curiously .
“We’re ready!” Mo Qinglong waved to the rest of the six young men behind him .
“Put it in that showcase box!” said Wang Xian to them .
“Yes, Wang!” the rest of the young men nodded .
Two of the young men moved over a huge foam box with ice in it . They opened the box, revealing a fish in it .
The body size of the fish was about three meters long . It was beefy and sleek, flickering with silvery radiance .
“Atlantic Bluefin Marlin . It’s the Atlantic Bluefin Marlin!”
“Gosh! It’s an Atlantic Bluefin Marlin of at least 400 catties!”
“Such a huge and beautiful Atlantic Bluefin Marlin . This one is worth at least 3 million and above!”
The group of chefs standing around could not help but exclaim as they quickly surrounded the box in astonishment!
This was the best fish in the world – Atlantic Bluefin Marlin!
Yet, another box opposite them was already opened while they exclaimed . It was a yellowish of one meter, weighing around 100 catties .
“Chinese Bahaba fish . It’s the Chinese Bahaba fish!”
“The fish gelatine is just beside the Chinese Bahaba fish . That’s just huge!”
“Gosh, there’s another Chinese Bahaba fish!”
When the Chinese Bahaba fish was out, another round of commotion broke out from the surrounding chefs . Chinese Bahaba fish . It’s the Chinese Bahaba fish .
“Director Wang… Boss, you’re awesome . An Atlantic Bluefin Marlin and a Chinese Bahaba fish . Gosh!” Manager Huang exclaimed dumbfoundedly .
With these two top-graded fish, would the First-grade Restaurant be afraid of the Longxuan Restaurant? They did not seem to exist .
Guan Shuqing parted her lips slightly in astonishment as she looked at the expensive fish .
She had not even have a chance to eat such expensive fish before .
“What a huge abalone! Gosh, the abalones are huge!”
Just as everyone was staring at the Atlantic Bluefin Marlin and the Chinese Bahaba fish, the abalones were unloaded one by one .
Among which, a few of the palm-sized abalones drew surprising cries from the chef .
The chef pointed unbelievably at those abalones that were taken out from the box with eyes agape .
“This… One-headed abalone . One-headed abalone!”
“Gosh, this is incredible . Too incredible!”
When Wang Xian saw their reactions, he smiled . “Put the ornamental fish into the fish tank!”
“Yes, Wang!”
A young Dragonian nodded, opened the foam box, and stored the arowanas in it .
There was a total of nine arowanas, and each of them was about 80 centimeters long .
Precious Chilli Red Arowanas, noble Asian Arowana, Domineering Silver Arowana, Elegant Yellow Arowana, and Radiant Blue Arowana…
Each of the Arowana exuded a faint and imposing aura .
They were the top-graded arowanas . Definitely the ultimate top-graded arowanas .
Manager Huang stared unbelievably at those arowanas with eyes agape .
He was not an expert in arowana, but his ex-boss borrowed several arowanas some time ago . Those arowanas were said to be worth more than a million each .
But he was sure that those arowanas back then were far inferior to these arowanas here .
The nine arowanas were sweeping its body from left to right in the aquarium . Its domineering mightiness was fascinating!
“Just these arowanas would cost more than $10 millions of dollars? Manager Huang was a little stupefied .
Lastly, hundreds of lobsters were taken out, relieving the group of people who were still stunned .
Luckily, the last hundred lobsters were worth hundreds of thousands of dollars which were incomparable to the rest of the fish .
“An Atlantic Bluefin Marlin, Chinese Bahaba fish, two one-headed abalones, ten two-headed abalones… Bring out those Wild Giant Yellow Croaker which I caught some time ago, and put them in the showcase . ”
Wang Xian looked at a chef impassively .
“Yes, Boss . I’ll get it!” That chef quickly rushed to the kitchen .
Soon, the 10 Wild Giant Yellow Croakers were in place .
The Chinese Bahaba fish and Atlantic Bluefin Marlin were situated on both sides of the door while the abalones were put beside the Chinese Bahaba fish . On the other hand, the Wild Giant Yellow Croakers were placed beside the Atlantic Bluefin Marlin .
Finally, the ornamental arowanas that were worth over $10 million were placed at the center position .
The shock on Manager Huang and the chefs’ faces did not subside .
Anyone who just walked into the shop would form an illusion that they were in a museum which housed the world’s best seafood . This was a “fish castle!”
