Chapter 60 A Scumbag (1/2)
Sensing that Wang Feng truly seemed to have no idea as to which wine it was, Gu Ping then smiled bitterly and said, ”This is an authentic Chateau Lafite Rothschild 1982; only a few of them exist in the world and the price for each bottle was at least more than two hundred thousand dollars.”
”What?” Upon hearing Gu Ping's words, Wang Feng was also so startled that he almost stood up from the chair. As for Lafite, though having heard about it, however, he did not know it.
If Gu Ping had not pointed it out, he even did not know what Bei Yunxue had asked him to bring over was actually a bottle of red wine whose value was at more than two hundred thousand dollars.
Was it still drinking? It was simply money drinking.
Thinking back of the last time when he and Bei Yunxue had finished drinking a bottle of red wine which was exactly like this at home, Wang Feng also could not help being stunned. This bottle of red wine actually was that expensive. No wonder he had been thick with memories while drinking it last time.
”Brother, don't mind it. It's just a bottle of red wine. There should be more at home after we finish drinking this one.” Seeing the astonishment on Gu Ping's face, Wang Feng could not care that much instead. Taking the bottle of red wine directly out, Wang Feng removed the cap.
A burst of wine aroma filled the whole room quickly. It was already an extremely amazing enjoyment to only smell this flavor. After all, it was an item priced at more than two hundred thousand dollars, which ordinary people had no opportunity to drink.
Gu Ping had seen his former boss drinking Lafite before. It never occurred to him that he would also have an opportunity to drink it.
Taking out two bowls, Wang Feng quickly emptied a great half of the red wine and said, ”Brother, since this wine is that valuable, we can not just waste it. We drink it with a bowl at first.” Wang Feng said boldly and forthrightly, which startled Gu Ping so much that he almost fell to the ground.
Wang Feng actually used a bowl for meals, to drink the red wine whose price was at more than two hundred thousand dollars. This was in any case, a pretty peculiar thing.
However, upon smelling the burst of a peculiar wine aroma, Gu Ping also could not help picking up the bowl in front of him in the end, and took a sip together with Wang Feng.
The wine was indeed a good one; people would enjoy it endlessly. However, upon finishing that sip, it felt like several thousand dollars were gone.
”The dish is on its way.” At this time, Aunt Cai had already fried the first dish and went to serve it.
The dishes were ordinary home-made meals. However, while staring at the greasy dishes giving off the fragrance, Wang Feng felt that his appetite improved dramatically. Ever since Wang Feng had lived in the villa, he had been eating almost all table the delicacies from land and sea every day. So as for this kind of home-made meals, he actually quite yearned for them.
As the saying goes, it is a true life to eat meat and drink wine to your heart's content. As for decency and elegance, they were all used to screw around with people.
”Aunt Cai, have a drink of this wine,” Gu Ping said at this time and pulled the middle-aged woman.
”This... is not good, is it?” Actually, Aunt Cai had already smelled the wine fragrance and knew that the wine they were drinking perhaps was not something cheap. Consequently, she was a bit embarrassed to do so.
”There isn't anything not good about it. When I was at the most distressing times, without you, I would have starved to death on the streets. I think my brother won't mind it either,” Gu Ping said.
”Yes, aunt. This wine is just some cheap stuff sold outside whose price is at tens of dollars. You can temporarily consider it as water drinking,” Wang Feng also echoed and smiled at this time.
”Then alright.” Unable to turn them away, Aunt Cai responded, picked the wine bowl and took a sip.
The wine definitely was a good one. So upon finishing a sip, Aunt Cai put the bowl down immediately and laid a peculiar look on Wang Feng.
Because she ran a restaurant, she was knowledgeable about wine. So upon smelling the wine fragrance, she immediately understood that the wine was definitely not as what Wang Feng had described. This was a famous and precious red wine.
”You two enjoy the dish first. I will go and check whether the other dishes are ready or not.” Upon finishing her words, Aunt Cai walked towards the kitchen's direction.
”Brother, you are extremely grateful for her, aren't you?” Wang Feng asked at this time.
”Yes. Not only is this aunt kind, but she also is respectable,” Gu Ping said, with a look of recollection on his face.
”Oh, why do you say that?”
”This aunt's husband died early out of suffering from sickness and left her with two children. As a woman, she brought up this small restaurant on her own. Moreover, she had two children to look after, which is pretty admirable,” Gu Ping said, with an honest admiring look showing up on his face.
”Surprisingly, there is such a tough woman like her in this world,” Wang Feng responded, who was also a bit respectful.
”Old woman, get out now.” Right at the time when Wang Feng's voice just faded, there came suddenly an extremely loud voice from the outside of the restaurant. Judging from this voice, it seemed that the visitor was pretty arrogant.
”Hehe, it turns out it is you, Brother Yellow Hair.” Upon hearing the calling outside, Aunt Cai also ran out of the kitchen immediately, with some apologetic smiles on her face.
”You better not cotton up with me. I am not your brother at all. Did you gather enough money for the protection fee I mentioned a few days ago?” The youth with a full head of yellow hair said, who behaved with unbearable insolence.
Upon hearing his words, the surrounding on-lookers evaded in succession, who seemed to fear this Brother Yellow Hair very much.
”Brother Yellow Hair, the protection fee previously was at one thousand dollars, was it not? Why is it two thousand dollars this time?” Aunt Cai asked, with an awkward look on her face.
To run a restaurant in this place, people needed to turn over the protection fee to this person whose name was Brother Yellow Hair every month. To be polite, it was the protection fee. While not to put too fine a point on it, it was extortion.
However, for fear of this Brother Yellow Hair's ferociousness, people in this place all felt indignant but they dared not to speak it out. This Brother Yellow Hair had been accumulating too deep an influence.
”Better talk less nonsense. If I say it is two thousand dollars, then it will be two thousand dollars. If you can't take this amount of money out today, then you can't run your restaurant here anymore. I, Yellow Hair is someone who keeps his promises,” This Brother Yellow Hair raised his eyebrows and said. Then a rookie at his back also immediately called out loudly, ”After Brother Yellow Hair takes your money, of course, he will guarantee that you can run your restaurant here safe and sound. It's an honor to cherish.”
”You... ” Staring at these several spoiled rogues in front of her, Aunt Cai was so anxious that she almost cried. By running a restaurant in this place, she could only earn a bit over two thousand dollars monthly. For her two children along with her, this amount of money could barely help out with the family expenses. If they took all the money away, how could she go on with her life?
