I just want to enjoy life

Chapter 639 646 Michelin three-star chefs are in place
Not long after Liu Yun left, Lin Haocang saw Zhang Ningjun walking towards the villa, so Lin Haocang leaned on the door and hooked his fingers towards Zhang Ningjun.

Zhang Ningjun shyly said: "What do you want to do, this bad look?"

"Brother Haocang, it's dinner time now, let's go have dinner"

"Hey, brother Haocang, the chefs you invited should be ready for dinner!"

Lin Haocang looked at the time, it was already past seven o'clock, just now with Liu Yun, he consumed a lot of protein, it's time to replenish it.

"Well, try the craft of these chefs"

The Michelin three-star chef Haston Blumenthal and other chefs hired by Mr. Lin Haocang have customized lunches, and Xiquan Villa can provide assistance when necessary.

This time he invited a total of nine chefs, and the remaining thirty chefs.

These people should also have been transported by Lin Haocang's bodyguards to Xiquan Villa by helicopter a few hours ago.

With so many chefs making dinner for him, Lin Haocang was really looking forward to what kind of scene it would be.

Lin Haocang seemed to have smelled the aroma of delicious food, and then Lin Haocang changed a piece of clothes.

After another 15 minutes or so, Liu Yun changed into a looser suit and rushed back.

Seeing that Zhang Ningjun was also there, Liu Yun felt very ashamed, very ashamed.

After all, an hour ago, I was hooking up with Zhang Ningjun's boyfriend.

If Zhang Ningjun, a rich lady, knew about it, I don't know how miserable it would be!

She hurriedly said: "Mr. Lin, Ms. Zhang, it's time for dinner. Let me take you there for dinner!"

"Okay, Miss Liu"

Along the way, although Liu Yun was still calm and steady, Lin Haocang clearly noticed that she was afraid to look at him.

Obviously it was the previous incident, which made her feel ashamed and ashamed in front of Zhang Ningjun,
This woman is really timid, Lin Haocang smiled thinking of this.

After about ten minutes, Liu Yun brought Lin Haocang and Zhang Ningjun to a large auditorium with an area of ​​more than 500 square meters. The exterior of the auditorium is in a very traditional Forbidden City architectural style.

But inside, it's another world.

The dome of the auditorium is more than ten meters high from the ground. There are many wooden boxes on it. Inside each box is an abstract watercolor painting. Even Lin Haocang, who has some insights into abstract art, can’t tell what the painting is .

There are black, white and brown tiles on the ground, but these three colors are combined with a visual masking effect, which makes people feel that the ground seems to be undulating, like walking on the mountains.

The interior of the auditorium is a collision of traditional Chinese aesthetics and abstract postmodernism, and the designer's amazing artistic skills perfectly integrate the two.

Lin Haocang had a similar feeling when he thought of Xiaheyuan Chengyuan Villa.

He asked: "Why do the buildings in your Xiquan Villa seem to be a little different from the outside?"

Lin Haocang's voice echoed in the huge auditorium.

Liu Yun understood what he meant, and replied: "Actually, the villa was in a very traditional palace style five years ago. Later, when our new manager took office, he felt that the original style was too outdated, so he remodeled the interior scenery."

"What you are seeing now is the interior set designed by the Chinese-American designer Lawrence."

Lawrence Xu?

Lin Haocang has heard of this name, and has seen his designs:
The oriental auspicious cloud dragon robe dress worn by a popular international superstar on the red carpet in Cannes was made by him.

Lin Haocang nodded affirmatively: "The transformation was very successful."

If Lawrence Xu can be invited to design an identical dragon robe for Zhang Ningjun now, the final effect will probably be very interesting.

On both sides of the auditorium are mahogany shelves tens of meters long, on which are placed various porcelain artworks.

Lin Haocang took Zhang Ningjun and walked slowly to the wooden shelf to browse these utensils. He was surprised to find that not only were they not cheap, but they were probably worth a lot.

Walking to the middle of the cabinet, Lin Haocang saw five extremely unique small cups. The cups looked like pottery and non-pottery, iron and not iron, with bright blue feather-like markings inside, shining brightly like a vast galaxy under the light.

Lin Haocang felt as if he had seen it in a documentary, thought for a while and asked, "Jianzhan?"

"Yes, Mr. Lin, you have really good eyesight."

Liu Yun introduced: "These are Jianzhan, Youdi Tianmu, and Partridge Spot. They were made by Master Cai Yuanhe, the inheritor of intangible cultural heritage. What you see is a set of tea sets worth more than 20 yuan."

Going forward, Lin Haocang saw many precious porcelains.

Clear description of golden flower and bird general jar;

Qing Xuantong official kiln sky blue glazed three-hole gourd vase;
Filigree Cloisonne Ruyi Ornament;
After seeing many precious porcelains, a very modern bracelet appeared in front of Lin Haocang.

Liu Yun took the initiative to explain: "This is the work of British jewelry designer Ethan Smith who won the championship in the diamond group of the World Jewelry Design Competition. The whole body is made of wavy black porcelain, the surface is embedded in a platinum frame, and 1200 diamonds are inlaid on it."

"Two months ago, the girlfriend of England's Prince William took it out for 16 seconds, so its value skyrocketed. We spent a lot of money to get it back. It is also one of the most expensive of these devices."

Lin Haocang naturally knew Catherine, she was the princess of Prince William's wedding, from Cinderella to a member of the royal family.

It seems that this black porcelain diamond bracelet still has room for appreciation in the future.

"These are all the private collections of the manager's family of our villa. This auditorium will never be opened except for special circumstances. Therefore, Manager Zhao stores them here, which can be regarded as welcoming distinguished guests."

Lin Haocang nodded slightly.

But Zhang Ningjun always maintained a faint smile, and his eyes were very clear.

After looking at the things on this row of mahogany shelves, he already had a rough estimate in his mind, and the total value of these utensils may exceed ten million.

It was extravagant.

It turned out that I actually wanted to dine in this place that looked like a private collection.

Liu Yun led Lin Haocang and Zhang Ningjun to a well-furnished large room at the corner of the auditorium: "Mr. Lin, wait a moment, the time is not up yet, the chef you hired is still preparing, I will invite them out."

Normally, if you go to a relatively high-end restaurant to eat, no matter what, the chefs will not directly meet the diners.

But it's different now, Lin Haocang directly called them to serve him alone, so of course we can see them whenever we want, and it's more convenient to communicate in person.

After a while, ten people came from the back kitchen to the inner room where Lin Haocang was.

Two of them are of Caucasian appearance, and the other eight are chefs of Chinese descent, who are chefs specializing in eight major cuisines.

And one of the two Caucasian chefs is a man over 50 years old, his hair has started to turn gray. Lin Haocang knew that he was the Michelin three-star restaurant Waterside on Blumenthal.

He just nodded to Lin Haocang with a smile, and he didn't deliberately try to please Lin Haocang, and Lin Haocang didn't care at all. The Michelin three-star chef can be regarded as a culinary artist in a sense.

As an artist, after all, you have to have a bit of aloofness to create excellent works.

The other accompanying Caucasian woman was very young, estimated to be in her early 20s. Rather than being Caucasian, Lin Haocang felt that she looked more like a mixed-race Chinese.

As he expected, the woman's mouth turned out to be an authentic Beijing film: "Mr. Lin, I'm AnnaWu, you can call me Wu Lifei, the dessert chef of the Waterside Inn restaurant, a French-Chinese, and this time you translate."

Lin Haocang took the list of dishes she handed over, browsed briefly and asked, "How much is each dish?"

Wu Lifei thought for a while and said, "Generally, three mouthfuls are not enough."

Lin Haocang nodded, exactly as he expected.

Lin Haocang specifically asked about the portion, because the amount of Northeast cuisine, one plate is enough for a person whose belly is bulging as if he is pregnant with Nezha.

However, the more high-end the restaurant, the smaller the portion, like the amount of most Michelin three-star meals, Lin Haocang will be gone in one bite.

So order more.
