Chapter 541 The most beautiful person in the world

According to Lu Fei, the one that Lafayette granted the Zhou family the title was not No. 1 Fresh, but First Grade Fresh.

The Magic City is famous for its high-quality private customization. The first fresh whole fish feast turned out to be a pirated copy. This news really shocked the younger generation of the Wang family.

"Brother Fei, what on earth is going on?"

"How come the first fresh food has become the first fresh food?"

"I'm a little confused." Wang Xinlei said.

Lu Fei smiled slightly.

"What Empress Dowager Cixi awarded to the Zhou family is the first-class delicacy. The first-class delicacy does exist. It is not the Zhou family, but the first-class fresh crab roe soup dumplings outside Deshengmen."

"I don't know if that shop still exists now. During the Republic of China, that shop was quite popular. The owner was from Haichang Mansion. It was the number one dish that was personally praised by Empress Dowager Cixi."

Speaking of the first fresh crab roe soup dumpling, Wang Xinyi’s eyes lit up and she said in surprise.

"Lu Fei, the store you mentioned is still there. I also had soup dumplings there. It tasted great."

“It turns out that’s where the real freshness is!”

"But according to what you said, isn't the Zhou family infringing on the naming rights of the soup dumplings?"

"Aren't the Zhou family afraid of suing them for giving them soup dumplings?"

"tell?"

"The Zhou family claims to be No. 1 fresher, but they haven't registered yet. How can we sue?"

"What's more, the title of No. 1 Fresh should belong to the Zhou family."

"The Zhou family is the most aggrieved." Lu Fei said.

"Oh my God!"

"What exactly is going on?"

"Brother Fei, can you please stop whetting your appetite?"

"Hurry up and tell everyone the whole story." Wang Xinlei said.

Lu Fei nodded and said.

"Actually, the Zhou family was also cheated. The culprit in this matter was Cixi Lafayette who went back on his word."

"On the Mid-Autumn Festival in the twenty-sixth year of Guangxu's reign, Empress Dowager Cixi was so idle that her breasts ached.

, organized a competition among the palace chefs. "

"Lafayette himself will be the judge. Whoever comes out on top will be awarded a hundred taels of silver."

"For the reward of one hundred taels of silver, all the royal chefs racked their brains and showed off their magic skills."

"The food cooked by the previous imperial chefs was all the same old routine, and Lafayette was tired of it, so he was very disappointed."

"But the imperial chef Zhou Jian'an went out of his way to prepare an all-fish banquet, with the main dish being Yangtze saury."

"After tasting it, Lafayette was full of praise and praised Zhou Jian'an's whole fish feast as the best in the world."

"As soon as Lafayette opened his mouth, Zhou Jianan immediately knelt down to thank him."

"I thought that the title of being the best in the world would be my own, but unexpectedly something went wrong."

"After tasting the crab roe soup dumplings made by Jiangnan pastry master Shao Ningkang, Lafayette liked it even more, and praised it again in public as the best in the world."

"It would be embarrassing to have two of the best players in the world in one game."

"After Li Lianying's suggestion, Lafayette also realized that he had made a mistake."

"After careful consideration, I decided to award the title of the freshest in the world to my favorite crab roe soup dumplings."

"As for Zhou Jian'an's all-fish feast, he changed it to a fresh one. In order to appease Zhou Jian'an, he was rewarded with three hundred taels of silver."

"I'll wipe it!"

"It's too shameless for this old lady to go back on her word!" the little nanny said with her lips curled up.

"What happened next, Brother Fei?"

"It got more interesting later."

"In the second year of the Republic of China, Zhou Jian'an opened a restaurant outside Deshengmen and named it the Best Fresh Food in the World."

"Shao Ningkang looked unhappy and filed a complaint against Zhou Jian'an at the then Tiandu Supervisory Office."

"The yamen at that time was in name only. It accepted Shao Ningkang's benefits and pronounced Shao Ningkang in favor of the lawsuit that day. Zhou Jian'an's restaurant was not allowed to use the name of the best restaurant in the world."

"Zhou Jian'an had no choice but to change the name "The Best Freshness in the World" to "The Best Freshness in the World."

"It's a pity that after all this trouble, Zhou Jian'an's restaurant has completely become a joke. After persisting in Tiandu City for half a year, he retreated to his hometown in Magic City."

"After Zhou Jian'an left, Shao Ningkang opened a steamed stuffed bun shop at the original location using the brand name "The Best in the World." .??.

"But Shao Ningkang is not doing well either."

"One time General Feng Yuxiang passed by Deshengmen. He frowned when he saw the pretense of being the best in the world and asked his subordinates who dared to claim to be the best in the world."

"My subordinates found out and reported to Feng Yuxiang. Feng Yuxiang was furious when he heard about it."

"What a fool, the Manchu Qing Dynasty has fallen, and you still dare to use the title of Empress Cixi. Aren't you going to rebel?"

"I immediately ordered people to seal up the bun shop and arrest Shao Ningkang, so that I could avoid taking Shao Ningkang's life."

"Later, the Shao family used connections to go through the back door and spent all the family's savings of 400 yuan, and then they fished out Shao Ningkang."

"After that, the No. 1 restaurant in the world ceased to exist, and the bun shop was renamed Shao Ji."

"As for the current No. 1 fresh crab roe soup dumpling shop, it is probably re-registered after re-opening."

After hearing what Lu Fei said, everyone was in awe.

It’s not worth it to fight over and over for a name and end up hurting both sides.

With this interruption, everyone finally stopped teasing Lu Fei and Wang Xinyi and started eating and drinking while talking and laughing.

After lunch, Wang Xinyi's parents said hello to Lu Fei and left.

After drinking tea for a while, Wang Zhenbang took Lu Fei and Wang Xinyi to the basement of his home.

There are more than five hundred in the basement

Square meters, it is exceptionally dry after special treatment.

There are more than a dozen large shelves made of special materials, filled with all kinds of antiques.

Next to the door is a row of pottery, with dozens of pieces of all kinds. The furthest ones can be traced back to the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. Each piece is valuable.

The five shelves below are all porcelain, including official kilns from the Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties. Ru kiln and Yuan blue and white each have two pieces.

Lu Fei did a rough calculation and found that the total value of these five shelves of porcelain easily exceeded one billion.

For a personal collection, this stuff is scary enough.

Um?

Looking along, Lu Fei found a log behind a shelf.

Lu Fei's eyes widened when he saw the log, and he walked around without saying hello to the old man.

This log is two and a half meters long. The thick end is more than fifty centimeters in diameter, and the thin end is more than forty centimeters in diameter.

Ordinarily, logs of this size are not a big deal. There are many more thick logs in the lumber market.

But the key point is that this log is actually made of small-leaf rosewood, which is so awesome.

It takes eight to nine hundred or even thousands of years for red sandalwood to mature.

The largest red sandalwood log in China is in the Dongyang Red Sandalwood Museum. It is 3.8 meters long and 40 centimeters in diameter at its thickest. It has a pretty awesome name, the King of Red Sandalwood in China.

But compared with the red sandalwood log in front of me, the so-called Chinese Red Sandalwood King is like a doll that has not grown and is completely incomparable.

Not to mention, the cross-sections on both sides are very oily and the patina has become gluey.

What makes Lu Fei incredible is that this log is still solid.

Nine out of ten sandalwoods are hollow, and ninety-nine percent of rosewood is hollow.

It's incredible that such a thick Big Mac doesn't have a hollow.
