Chapter 386: Chapter 387 Tiger Whip

“Isn’t it illegal to hunt wild boars and provide guns and powerful crossbows?” I was very surprised. But Min Rou’s answer was that the management here told the public that the wild boars and other wild animals were domesticated. Moreover, hunting was only open to VIP members here. The owner of this place had a very powerful background, so there would be no problems.

Undoubtedly, Min Rou was also a member here. But when I asked her what other wild animals did this place have, she ignored me and went to ask Father Shu if he was interested in hunting wild boars. Fortunately, Father Shu declined it timidly.

The nature of hunting wild boars here should be similar to fishing in a fishing park. After killing the boar the customer should be able to buy it. I wondered how much it would cost to buy a whole boar.

Thinking of this, I suddenly remembered a more important thing. Nowadays, normal vegetables were already more expensive than pork, but this place was selling pure natural and pollution-free vegetables. How much would those vegetables cost?

After parking the car, we still had to climb a not-so-steep stone stair for more than two hundred meters before arriving at a rich European-style building that looked like a medieval palace.

This was Min Rou’s so-called farmhouse restaurant? Which country’s farmhouse restaurant would look like this!? On the lawn in front of the building, several guests, either carrying shotguns or armed with crossbows, were riding sturdy tall horses, comparing the game of hunting with each other. Seeing this, I finally realized that Min Rou, this damn woman, was digging a hole for me to jump in!

Anyone would be able to imagine how much it would cost to have a meal here. It definitely would not be cheaper than the French meal I made Liu Xiaosheng pay for.

My hunch was confirmed when I ordered the food. Before I could figure out why there were so many zero after each dish’s name when looking through the menu, the menu was snatched away by Min Rou.

“Grandma Shu, what would you like to eat?”

“I’m fine with anything?” Grandma Shu felt uncomfortable just sitting in this magnificent room. Obviously, she didn’t expect that her simple request of eating something light would turn out to be like this. “You can ask Little Chu to order.”

I anxiously took over the menu and planned to order anything that is cheap on the menu, but then I saw Min Rou smile at me and say, “Let me do it, then.”

Liusu, Shu Tong, and Dong Xiaoye could all see that Min Rou was trying to give me a hard time. It was a pity that when they handed their menus to Min Rou, all of them were ignored by her. Then the three of them looked at me at the same time, showing different expressions. Dong Xiaoye was helpless, Shu Tong was guilty and ashamed, and Liusu could hardly suppress the desire to beat Min Rou.

In terms of me, I was almost in tears.

“Most of the vegetables and fruits here are grown in greenhouses, but because of the environment here, the selection is not much richer than that on the market. It is just much greener.” Min Rou said, seemingly comforting me, and then gave the menu to a middle-aged waiter dressed in a tailcoat. “Manager Tian, can you just serve the dishes that I pre-ordered?”

“Okay, Miss Min.”

‘Hold on a second. This man is not a waiter, but the restaurant manager?’ I was shocked. To be able to become a manager in such a high-end restaurant, no one would believe that he was just an ordinary person. But in front of Min Rou, he never took the initiative to say anything. He didn’t even dare to look directly at her with his eyes from the beginning. His respectful and humble attitude was no different from that of a waiter…

I knew who hired Min Rou, but I didn’t know what Min Rou’s identity was. From the fact that she had pre-ordered the food, it could be seen that even if Grandma Shu didn’t say that she wanted to eat something light, she would find some excuse to drag us here. But what was her purpose for doing this? My mind was full of doubts, but I didn’t reveal it.

No matter what her purpose was, it was definitely not something good. If I didn’t know about Grandma Shu’s condition, I definitely would not continue to play this game with her. Whether it was owing her a favor or being made fun of by her, it was still not worth it. However, looking at the old woman’s pale face that was filled with happiness at the moment, I didn’t have that kind of courage to quit.

“Chu Nan, will… this meal be very expensive?”

Every time a dish was served, the waiter would call out the name of the dish. Fancy restaurants would always have some fancy dish names, this place was no exception. A plate of shredded radish was called ‘Gather of Heroes’; a plate of green pepper and white fungus was called ‘Trace of Immortal in the Green Field’; the ice cream that had heart-shaped tomatoes and strawberries sprinkled on top was called “Love of Absolute Zero”; and so on and so forth…

To be honest, these appetizers were very common in Bei Tian City, it was not that special. Shu Tong was worried about my wallet mainly because she was fooled by the fancy name and the fancy decoration of the restaurant.

“It’s not expensive, you often go to the vegetable market, don’t you know how much this stuff sells for?” Of course, I knew that after these items were simply processed, they would never be sold at the market price. I just said those words to comfort Shu Tong. Before I could finish speaking, an appetizing rich meaty fragrance wafted into the room. Then I saw two waiters carrying an extra-large plate into the room.

“This is our special dish, roasted wild boar.”

Shu Tong’s eyes almost teared up. She whispered to me anxiously, “The vegetable market doesn’t sell wild boar…”

I was also almost in tears. ‘God damn it, this boar is at least 50 kilos. Even if it is calculated at the price of ordinary pork, this thing is still not cheap!’

Min Rou had indeed ordered the dish in advance, and she had also expected that Grandma Shu would not order the food because it was absolutely impossible for this boar to be roasted after we came.

The heavy task of cutting the roast boar fell on me without any suspense. My hand holding the knife was trembling. I was definitely not afraid to kill a dead stupid boar. I was just frightened by the dishes that were served one after another.

Pheasant, wild duck, wild rabbit, and wild deer, although they were not common, it was still very appetizing. The snake soup and stirred-fried mushroom with snake meat sounded very scary, but it was still acceptable. However, the stewed bear paws, and steamed monkey brains, those things were more than just terrifying. It was completely illegal to kill those animals. Where the hell did Min Rou get those animals? Was she trying to set me up?

But that was not everything, there was still one more dish. The dish was served by Manager Tian personally. As if showing off, he told us that the last dish was made of a rare wild Siberian tiger whip. And the rarest thing was that it was still very fresh, because its owner was still alive and kicking in the mountains and streams a week ago…

If Sister Tiger was wearing a police uniform today, I doubt this guy would have the courage to brag like this. This restaurant should absolutely be closed down! They even dared to kill the wild Siberian tiger!

“Elder Brother, what is a tiger whip? Is it the tiger’s tail? But why is the tiger tail so short?” Chu Yuan used her chopsticks to fiddle with it and said in confusion. Before she could even understand what the weird thing was in the big bowl, she already suspected the manager was lying.

Seeing that Chu Yuan was repeatedly poking the embarrassing dish with her chopsticks, Shu Tong, who was sitting on the other side of me, almost wanted to hide behind me with a blushing face. Even Liusu and Dong Xiaoye also couldn’t help but blush. Mother Shu on the other hand was looking at the reactions of all of them with an ambiguous expression.

Although my dear little sister liked taboo literature like Yuri literature, she was still a child who didn’t know a lot of things. However, how could I answer this question without making her feel embarrassed?

“This is a good thing,” Min Rou gave me a meaningful look and smiled, “This thing is very difficult to get. In the past few days, many rich and influential people had come to this restaurant asking the restaurant owner to sell it. But because of your elder brother, the owner of this restaurant declined all the offers.”

There was a hidden message in Min Rou’s words, but it was not convenient for Liusu, Shu Tong, and me to ask. Fortunately, Sister Tiger was very clever. She pretended to be dumb and asked, “The owner here knows Chu… my cousin?”

Min Rou affirmed, “Of course. The owner also owes him a big favor.”

I didn’t know if Chu Yuan realized something or she was just curious, she also asked, “What kind of favor can the owner here owe my elder brother?” The little girl knew very well that this meal might cost one or even several years of my salary.

Min Rou glanced at me and smiled at Chu Yuan, “Your Elder Brother has helped her successfully acquire a company with a market value of tens of billions. So, it is reasonable for her to pay for this meal. Of course, if your Elder Brother can give her the opportunity to pay for it. Anyway, there is no need to restrain yourself, you can eat as much as you like.”

Sure enough, the owner of this place was the Third Lady… Secondly, Min Rou implicitly told me that I didn’t need to pay for this meal, because the Third Lady wanted to return the favor to me…

I said lightly, “Without me, she can still acquire the Long Corporate Group.”

Liusu and Dong Xiaoye were shocked when they heard this, while Chu Yuan and Shu Tong had the same surprised expression. They knew that Min Rou was a fake secretary, so they doubted whether we were acting at the moment.
