Extreme Almightiest Young Master

Chapter 1538 - 1536: Astronomical Bill

As the waiter kept serving dishes, Bai Rong and his two lackeys were completely dumbfounded. Not only were they stunned, but even the waiters were dumbfounded, and the people in the kitchen were going crazy. No one could have imagined that eight beauties could eat so much. They had ordered food for over a hundred people, and there was no sign of them stopping. This made the restaurant manager sweat because he had already received word from the kitchen that the ingredients they had prepared were running low. There was no choice but to contact suppliers immediately to restock as much as possible, or else the entire restaurant might run out of supplies.

Under the astounded gazes of everyone, the eight women were eating happily and didn’t care about the looks they were getting. Nearly an hour passed, not because the women were slowing down, but because the waiters couldn’t serve the food fast enough. They were controlling the pace; otherwise, the restaurant would soon run out of food.

Even with these measures, the restaurant was on the brink. The manager had already stationed people at the door to prevent more guests from entering. In his heart, he was worried that if they couldn’t even handle this table of guests, the restaurant’s reputation might suffer...

On the other side, Lin Feng called over Huang Shi because he had some tasks for him.

"Boss, what’s so urgent that you called me over?" Huang Shi looked at Lin Feng, completely confused about why he was needed.

"If I give you photos, can you find out about the families of these people?" Lin Feng looked at Huang Shi and said flatly.

"It’s a bit tricky, but it can be done." Huang Shi thought for a moment and gave a definite answer, but he was genuinely puzzled about what Lin Feng meant.

"Alright, I’ll send you some photos later. Find out about these people’s family information, and then send ten thousand yuan to each family. Tell them their children are working with you and, due to confidentiality agreements, can’t contact family. Assure them there’s nothing to worry about, and if they need to reach out, they can write to you, and you’ll pass the letters on to me."

Lin Feng looked at Huang Shi and explained his plan. He thought about it; these people were different from Xue Dakun and didn’t want them to stir things up by calling home. By solving it this way, he could reassure their families while also monitoring them to prevent any trouble.

"No problem, Boss." Hearing Lin Feng’s arrangements, Huang Shi instantly understood the reasoning. He also knew who these people were — they must be the ones the Boss had dealt with last time, and since the Boss had set it up this way, that’s how it should be done.

After their conversation, Huang Shi got up and left, while Lin Feng was busy taking photos of those people...

......

"Manager, we’ve run out of our stock; you have to come up with something!"

In the Michelin restaurant’s kitchen, the head chef said urgently to the manager, grabbing his arm. As the head chef, it was his first time encountering such a situation. Usually, to avoid unexpected situations, the restaurant stocked a week’s worth of high-end ingredients. But today, they were completely consumed. Without a solution, the restaurant might not be able to prepare anything for the guests.

"I know, but even our suppliers have limited options right now; they’re sending what they have. I hope we can hold on." The manager was equally distressed. He was truly worried because Michelin restaurants have a rule: if the restaurant doesn’t have the ingredients for an order, the guests don’t have to pay. With so much already eaten, he was anxious. If they continued eating like this and the restaurant ran out of food, what would happen if they didn’t pay?

The head chef knew the manager was also at a loss, so he could only sigh and return to his tasks. Meanwhile, after making another call to confirm when new ingredients would be delivered, the manager calculated the time and his expression grew even more grim.

With no options left, the manager had to brace himself and step out of the kitchen...

At this time, Bai Rong and his two lackeys had turned into wooden figures, staring dumbfounded at the eight beauties in front of them, unable to utter a word. They had, of course, seen how much these beauties had eaten. Conservatively, each woman had consumed over a hundred dishes, not counting wine, having drunk over a hundred bottles just by their count!

Oh my god!

What kind of people are these women!

Could these women be aliens? Eating so much food is simply impossible for humans!

...

The three of them were inwardly astounded, unable to believe this could all be real because humans couldn’t possibly eat such quantities. More crucially, none of these women had even visited the restroom, which was beyond perplexing!

Considering the food these women ate exceeded their body weight, where on earth was it all going? If they hadn’t witnessed it themselves, none of them would have imagined there could be people with such appetites in the world...

Meanwhile, Chu Meng and the group were even happier. Initially, they were there to deal with Bai Rong, and now seeing his dramatic expression brought them undeniable joy as they continued enjoying the dishes and conversing. Honestly, the food here was quite good, mainly because the ingredients were top-notch, so the women were eating with great satisfaction and enjoyment.

Just as the women were about to order more, the manager approached them.

"Ladies, apologies, truly sorry. We’re out of our premium ingredients, which was our mistake. Please forgive us. If you wish to continue dining, there’ll be a five-minute wait as the newly delivered ingredients are on their way. We hope you can understand our shortcoming."

Looking at the women, the manager wiped sweat from his brow and apologized to Chu Meng and the others sincerely. He was at a loss. Even after slowing the service, the ingredients hadn’t arrived, which was a serious blunder. If Chu Meng and her group were to make a fuss over this, it could result in astronomical losses, a responsibility he couldn’t bear.

"It’s okay; we’ve eaten enough. No worries, you don’t need to trouble yourself." Seeing the manager so tense, Ding Wan’er spoke first. This event was meant to target Bai Rong, having nothing to do with the restaurant, and she didn’t want to make things difficult for the manager.

"Thank you, thank you so much!" The manager breathed a huge sigh of relief upon hearing Ding Waner’s words, calming considerably. After saluting Ding Wan’er and the group, he walked straight up to Bai Rong.

"Sir, it’s you who’s paying for what those eight ladies ate, correct?" The manager looked at Bai Rong and asked very politely. He approached Bai Rong because he had learned from the staff that Bai Rong was the one who initially invited the eight women to dine.

"Uh... yes... it’s me..." Bai Rong was still zoning out, gazing at Chu Meng and the others, when he suddenly heard the manager’s voice and snapped back to reality. After hesitating for a moment, he instinctively nodded.

"Good evening, sir. The bill totals 21.35 million. To compensate for the service issues, we’ll round it down, bringing it to 21 million even. Please pay the bill." The manager’s face lit up as he politely informed Bai Rong. This was no small amount, so Bai Rong’s acknowledgment finally set him at ease.

But the manager hadn’t anticipated what happened next, as Bai Rong’s voice erupted in rage.

"How... how is that possible, you ****** swindler! There’s no way they could eat up so much money!"

Facing the manager, Bai Rong truly lost it, even spouting obscenities. He knew the women had spent a hefty sum, but never imagined it would amount to 21 million. This was downright impossible, thinking the manager was scamming him in the most exaggerated way!

"Good evening, sir. We have the itemized bill and video surveillance; nothing is amiss. As for how the sum came to be, I can explain. They drank 24 bottles of Latour wine at 50,000 each, totaling 1.2 million, 24 bottles of Jiahua World at 100,000 each, totaling 2.4 million... The wine alone cost 10 million and 4,000.

In terms of dishes, here’s the breakdown: 80 servings of premium double-headed abalone, 120 servings of premium French foie gras, 80 servings of Northern Europe wild caviar, 80 servings of arctic sturgeon fillet, 80 servings of premium Supreme king snail... The total for the dishes comes to 10.95 million."

The manager started detailing the bill to Bai Rong, reading through it meticulously. The sheer quantity of food the women ate was staggering, enough to make feeding a hundred strong men seem inadequate, which made reading through it time-consuming. However, for Bai Rong to pay, the manager had to make sure he understood where all the money had been spent.

As Bai Rong listened to the manager read the bill, his face gradually turned pale, eventually becoming completely bloodless. He finally understood the enormity of what these women had consumed. It was terrifying; they ate the finest foods and drank the finest wines. Bai Rong had never splurged like this, even when he visited the restaurant himself. This wasn’t eating food; it was akin to dining on gold bricks!

Though he had some wealth, he couldn’t handle this. His family had money, but it was mostly his father’s, and much of it was illiquid assets, unable to cover the over 21 million bill. If he truly had to pay, there was no way he could come up with that amount, given his card only had around two million.
