Supreme Warrior in the City

Chapter 980: Chapter 979: Really Spent 300,000,000

Everyone looked at each other, that’s an astronomical figure, who would dare to imagine that!

If that’s really the case, then spending a whopping three hundred million is no joke indeed!

At this time, Li Chuan sneered, ”Who are you kidding? You say they are Luminous Pearls, and that’s it? Hmph, I don’t believe it. All these are Luminous Pearls? We don’t recognize them anyway, you can say whatever you want, and if you say these are worth thirteen billion, we won’t have any comment because we don’t recognize them anyway!”

The crowd all nodded, this was indeed true. They didn’t know whether they were Luminous Pearls or not, so they naturally couldn’t tell.

The man in the suit smiled faintly, speaking softly, ”It’s normal that you all don’t recognize them. If everyone could recognize them, Luminous Pearls wouldn’t be valuable anymore, right?”

”Don’t talk about all these things we don’t understand, just tell us something we can understand!” a young man said directly, ”Three hundred million, I just want to know where it was spent, don’t bother with this useless stuff!”

”Alright then.” The man in the suit looked at everyone and smiled, ”I suppose you all know a bit about food and drink, right?”

The crowd all nodded, they might not have been experts, but at least they understood what they saw.

”Then let me take you all to see our buffet for tonight.” The man in the suit then took everyone to the kitchen area.

Upon reaching the kitchen area, everyone smelled the aroma of food. Looking closely, there were twenty to thirty chefs with tall white hats busy at work.

”These chefs were hired in advance by Mr. Su, all the top chefs in the country, the kind that not all the wealthy can hire!” the man in the suit said, ”To hire these chefs, a total of seventeen million was spent!”

”You’re bullshitting, right? Hiring these people can cost that much?” Lin Qian couldn’t help but say, ”Seventeen million, that’s enough to make a lifetime’s worth of food!”

The man in the suit smiled and looked towards the group, speaking softly, ”Isn’t anyone here knowledgeable about culinary arts?”

At this time, two boys walked out from the crowd. Both boys had dazed expressions and were trembling, as if they were shivering.

”Yo, Old Wang, didn’t you say your family runs a culinary school? You guys should know something about this!” one of the youths quickly said, ”Come on, tell us, can these chefs really cost this much?”

One of the boys took a deep breath and said with a shaky voice, ”I... I recognize two of the chefs here, no... it’s not that I recognize them, it’s... I know of them, but they don’t know me. These two... these two are among the top chefs in the country, my... my dad once visited them with the founders of several culinary schools in our province, and... and we didn’t even get to taste their cooking, their standard... their standard is very high...”

”What?” Everyone was astounded, and another youth said, ”Hey, you... you’re not mistaken, are you?”

”I’m not mistaken, my dad had a hard time just getting a photo with the two of them, the photo... the photo is hanging in our living room. My dad has always been proud of it, making me look at it every day, telling me... telling me about their stories, I absolutely can’t be mistaken...” the boy said decisively.

Everyone looked at each other, their faces filled with astonishment. So are these chefs for real then?

”But it still couldn’t have cost that much!” Li Chuan said urgently.

At this moment, the other boy spat, ”What do you know, you bloody idiot?”

”Why are you cursing at people!” Li Chuan flared up.

”What about it!” the boy glared back, ”You don’t know shit! My family has been chefs for generations, I’m the one who knows the situation best. Let me tell you, the chefs in this room are the finest in the country, the type that even the wealthy can’t hire to cook for them. Seventeen million to get these top chefs, that’s definitely a friendly price!”

”What?” Everyone was stunned, they all knew that these two boys came from families of chefs. If they said it, it must be true.

Li Chuan and Lin Qian were also dumbfounded. So, was it true that this venue really cost three hundred million?

If that’s the case, then doesn’t it mean that the Luminous Pearls outside are also real?

Exactly how terrifying would Su Yang’s wealth have to be?

At this moment, the man in the suit spoke again, ”Everyone, these are the ingredients we’ll be using tonight, you can take a look.”

The crowd went over to have a look, and of course, most people didn’t understand, but there were a few who did. After one glance, they began exclaiming, ”Top-grade Wagyu beef, Australian abalone, Australian lobster, tiger fugu gonads, bluefin tuna, oh my, how much did... did all these ingredients cost?”

”Are they expensive?” Li Chuan asked anxiously.

”Are they expensive?” one youth glared, ”Let me put it this way for you, if you’re a big eater, the worth of tonight’s meal could exceed the total value of all the food you’ll eat in your entire life!”

”What?” Li Chuan was baffled, just how valuable were these ingredients?

”Over here is the wine we’ll be using tonight.” The man in the suit spoke again.

Of course, there were those among them who knew about wine, and after a glance, they too began exclaiming in shock. The wines present at the event all cost over a hundred thousand per bottle, causing almost everyone to be nearly driven mad with astonishment.

After the tour of the kitchen, the man in the suit took the crowd to the venue area and smiled, ”Now that you’ve seen the kitchen, you should have some understanding of our situation. Mr. Su has invested roughly sixty million just in the kitchen, just to ensure everyone enjoys their food and drink tonight.”

Everyone was about ready to spit blood; just food and drink alone cost over sixty million, how lavish could Su Yang get?

And there was still so much to set up outside, how much more would that cost?

At this moment, a girl suddenly exclaimed, ”Those celebrities outside... how much would they cost?”

Everyone immediately looked at the man in the suit, now believing that these celebrities were indeed here for tonight’s event. Su Yang had spent so much on other aspects, how much would he have to pay these celebrities?

”Oh, they are here for free.” The man in the suit said, ”They all came voluntarily.”

”What?” Everyone was dumbstruck, they thought the celebrities would be the most expensive of all, yet it cost nothing?

”Are you joking? The appearance fees of these stars can’t be lower than those chefs, can they? And they just came for free?” Li Chuan said with wide eyes.

”They really did come for free, and if Mr. Su did pay for anything, it was just to book them rooms on the upper floors.” The man in the suit smiled and continued, ”Of course, this isn’t considered an expense. After all, before they arrived, Mr. Su had booked the entire hotel, so this cost is still included in tonight’s event!”
