"This wine…" The next moment, Liu Ming looked at the empty glass in his hand, and was also greatly astonished.

This wine was shockingly delicious. He had never tasted such good wine before.

Wangxian Tower, also had some high-end wines, some of which were even used as the signature wines by their boss. The leftovers or unwanted high-end wines from some customers were occasionally tasted by the waitstaff and chefs of Wangxian Tower. He was certain that even the highest grade wine he had tasted at Wangxian Tower was far inferior to this bottle of wine.

However, the high-end wines at their Wangxian Tower, the most expensive could reach tens of thousands per bottle!

Could this bottle of wine that Lin Yun brought out also cost tens of thousands?

Liu Ming found it hard to believe.

How much was the salary in Immortal Origin County, or even his own salary, drinking a bottle of wine worth tens of thousands with someone else... he dared not think about it!

Thinking about this, he couldn\'t help but become even more nervous.

He knew that his relationship with Lin Yun and Zhao Gang, was not as deep as that between Lin Yun and Zhao Gang. Drinking such good wine from them made him feel quite uneasy.

Although he had introduced Wangxian Tower\'s business to Lin Yun\'s family a while ago, how valuable was that business? Probably, not even worth the price of these few glasses of wine!

No wonder it\'s Brother Lin!

The famous person in school back in the day!

Liu Ming sighed secretly, filled with deep admiration.

He knew Lin Yun didn\'t go to college and had been abroad these years, how much success would he need to be drinking wines that cost tens of thousands per bottle?!

"The food here isn\'t bad!" Lin Yun put down his wine glass, started to serve the dishes, and after swallowing the first mouthful, he expressed surprise.

The food here, in terms of taste, obviously was nowhere near as good as that at Qingyun Restaurant.

However, the dishes at Qingyun Restaurant tasted so good because they used special seasonings.

If those special seasonings were not used, the dishes at Qingyun Restaurant might not necessarily be much better than the ones here.

However, Qingyun Restaurant\'s chef, although not among the top chefs in Shen City, was still considered very impressive.

The food at Wangxian Tower, a small county restaurant, had such culinary standards, which spoke volumes about its exceptionality.

"Our boss at Wangxian Tower is a rich boss from out of town. Our chef at Wangxian Tower was also recruited from out of town with a high salary, his skills are indeed high..." Liu Ming nodded continuously, with an envious tone, said.

The quality of a restaurant\'s food greatly depends on the chef.

The treatment of their chef was the envy of many of the employees of Wangxian Tower.

Even their boss valued that chef very much and was always polite to him, this was also something they were jealous of.

After all, their boss was no ordinary person.

"It does taste great. No wonder the price is so high and the business is so good..." At this point, Zhao Gang also started to eat, then he nodded and sighed slightly.

There is no comparison between people.

Even though they were only ordering six or seven dishes at this dinner, he had seen the prices, and the money spent was probably five to six hundred. The average person really couldn\'t afford this, yet some people could dine here every day.

If only he could also...

He and his girlfriend wouldn\'t have ended up at this point.

Such a pity.

He had never taken his girlfriend to such a nice place for a meal before.

He always wanted to save money... But he only earned so little each month, how much could he save?

If he had known this would be the outcome, he would have treated her better from the start.

Zhao Gang felt a touch of bitterness in his heart.

"Quickly, everyone clean up the table, Secretary Zhu is coming..."

"Secretary Zhu is here again?"

"Why are you so nervous? We\'ve had Secretary Zhu here more than once or twice. Besides, have we ever had a shortage of esteemed guests at Wangxian Tower?"

Just then, the voices of some waiters resonated around.

"Secretary Zhu is here?" Liu Ming was taken aback, then he started to fidget. He looked up at Lin Yun and Zhao Gang, seemingly speechless.

"Who is Secretary Zhu?" Seeing Liu Ming\'s expression, Lin Yun calmly asked.

"He\'s the county\'s... our county\'s highest-ranking official... Recently, he often comes to Wangxian Tower for meals. The seat he likes to sit in is right next to us. Should we change seats?" Liu Ming voiced his query nervously.

Unlike many who loved to curry favor with those in authority, many ordinary people feel nervous when seeing the powerful and prefer to keep their distance, and Liu Ming was just such a person.

Besides, when Secretary Zhu came to eat, there were sure to be some important figures from his entourage who would want to sit with him. Some of them might even ask them to change seats. So, it seemed better for them to switch seats in advance rather than being requested to do so later.

"Our county\'s highest-ranking official..." Lin Yun\'s eyes narrowed slightly.

Prohibiting tricycles throughout the county was no small matter.

Did that highest-ranking official in the county know about it?

Or was it his decision in the first place?

"Why should we change seats? Don\'t we pay for our meals?" With this in mind, Lin Yun calmly said.

"Okay... alright..." Liu Ming replied quietly, his face flushed with shame.

He didn\'t blame Lin Yun at all, instead, he admired him even more.

He thought to himself, \'True to his name, Brother Lin doesn\'t even flinch when faced with our county\'s highest-ranking official.\'

At the same time, he felt a sense of self-reproach.

Compared to Brother Lin, he was just too gutless.

No wonder many people liked to bully him.

If only he had Brother Lin\'s aura and confidence.

"The costs here aren\'t low. That Secretary Zhu often dines here... doesn\'t that seem a little ostentatious?" At that moment, a thought struck Lin Yun, prompting him to ask.

"This... I\'ve heard the reason for this. Apparently, Secretary Zhu hopes to persuade our boss to invest in Immortal Origin County which is why he often dines here. Many important business figures often dine here as well, so he probably wants to see if he can encourage them to invest in Immortal Origin County too..." Liu Ming hurriedly explained.

"I see." Lin Yun nodded slightly.

What Liu Ming was talking about sounded similar to his Qingyun Restaurant in Shen City.

The reputation of Qingyun Restaurant was well-established, attracting many wealthy, influential people to dine there.

Some of them didn\'t come because the food was particularly good, but because they wanted to meet influential people, form connections, or accomplish their own goals.

"Liu Ming, did you have the tricycle brought here? What are you trying to do, demonstrate to Secretary Zhu?" Just then, a shift leader approached with a frigid expression, casting an accusing glare at Liu Ming before launching into his tirade.

"Leader Zhang, I..." Liu Ming stood up, hurriedly beginning to explain.

"Are you looking for trouble? What does us dining here have to do with pulling along a tricycle? Is there a rule that says people with tricycles can\'t dine here?" Zhao Gang smashed his palm down on the table, shouting in anger.

Zhao Gang was feeling dejected, a suppressed rage simmering within him. Being poor and mediocre, his girlfriend was due to marry someone else in a few days. Wangxian Tower had also stopped purchasing vegetables from them. Now, this damned shift leader was berating Liu Ming just because they had brought a tricycle.

Having just downed three glasses of wine, Zhao Gang was a ticking time bomb, the smallest spark igniting him.

"You... you dare... to..." The shift leader also seemed taken aback, stunned by Zhao Gang\'s fierce outburst. He looked at Zhao Gang incredulously, his body slightly trembling.

In Immortal Origin County, Wangxian Tower was considered a top-tier restaurant. Even Secretary Zhu, the county\'s highest-ranking official, often dined here. Being a shift leader at Wangxian Tower, he was often treated respectfully by various section chiefs, business owners, and officers.

Now, a common boy dared to confront him like this?

"You\'re the ones who delivered the vegetables today, right? There\'s something we forgot to tell you. We\'ve already decided not to take your vegetables anymore. They\'re currently in the kitchen. Please, remove them immediately!" The shift leader\'s emotions were in a whirl, but he finally took a deep breath, scoffed, and announced his decision.

As he spoke, his eyes swept over Zhao Gang and Lin Yun, his gaze laden with scorn.

Two vegetable vendors dared to show such defiance to him.

Now, it was time for them to cry.

To make them see the price of offending him.
