When you are rich, what's the first thing you'd do? Of course you spend the money, otherwise, what else are you going to save it for? Money saved ain't gonna grow on its own!
That was, of course, Bai Yang's own thoughts.
There was a saying which Bai Yang agreed very much with: "The biggest tragedy in life is that you've earned the wealth but lost the health to enjoy it."
After seeing how fragile life could be, he resolved to embrace every single moment of happiness he could!
Therefore, the first thing that came into his mind was, I'm rich! Over 60 million, I can buy Xiong Da's metal processing plant now!
But in the next second, he thought again, What for I buy the plant? The equipment for the barbarians are already made, I have no need for the metal processing plant anymore, at least for now.
Then if that was the case, why should he buy the plant? Furthermore, Xiong Da just earned a large sum from Bai Yang's order, he probably wouldn't sell the plant now.
Let's wait a little more. Xiong Da's idiocy destines that he will never be able to land any orders on his own. Let his plant operate a little longer and when his funds dry out, I'll buy out his plant then, and him and his crew altogether!
Then, the next question followed was, what should he do now?
He looked at the time and realized that it was already 5pm and he still hadn't taken anything yet.
That's it, I want to have a luxurious meal. Whatever is most expensive is what I will order! I'm now a bratty upstart, so what? Bite me if you can!
He thought in his heart and immediately searched up the most luxurious fine dining restaurants nearby. It had to be at least five-star rated or he wouldn't even bat an eye at it.
However, the moment he opened up the browser, every search result was filled with Actor Wang Bao's news. It was all over the internet!
"Bao Bao don't be sad, Bao Bao don't cry…."
After some reading, Bai Yang finally understood the whole story and he sighed. What a world this was, somehow, all the good men in this world always ended up getting cheated on or betrayed by the women they loved most. Moreover, Actor Wang Bao's wife had been cheating on him for years already!
I initially thought he won some gold medal that's why his news is all over the place but it turns out it was because of Ma Rongyi. Haih…
Although Bai Yang couldn't care less about the entertainment industry, having zero interest in the news of the singers, actors, and actresses, he still felt discomforted to see one of the only few honest and well-behaving actors cheated by his wife.
Without thinking too much, he found the internet water army and employed them for a million RMB. He only wanted them to spam and spoil the wife's reputation all over the internet…
After a dozen minutes, Bai Yang looked at his phone screen and smiled as all the sites were now filled with comments that were scolding Actor Wang Bao's wife. He was incredibly satisfied with his work and thought, I am a rich man now, I can do whatever makes me happy!
As always, he was only responsible for starting troubles, never caring to settle them in the end. Then, he threw everything to the back of his mind and continued searching for his five-star restaurant.
This brat was never matured enough to keep the mess he has made. The internet water army he employed had been spamming the same comments on every website and overloading the servers.
"Bao Bao don't cry, we'll just find another ten more beauties. We don't want the ragged horse anymore."
When one of the internet water army commented on any website, the rest of the few million others would reply the exact same comment with an additional +n on the back…
It was as if Bai Yang had thrown an atomic bomb that erupted the internet. This phenomenon even became its own news that overshadowed the initial incident…
"Imperial Palace Fine Cuisine? A famous five-star restaurant with a hundred years of history? That's some bullshit right. But I'd very much like to try it out!"
Bai Yang's eyes lit up when he found the restaurant online. He had no interest in western cuisine and when he saw the word "Imperial Palace", he immediately decided that this was the restaurant he would go to. An imperial palace kind of fine cuisine, how could he miss it?
He rode on the bike and "vroom", left for the restaurant.
When he arrived at the destination, he praised in his heart the restaurant's choice of location. It was a traditional Chinese garden surrounded by a bamboo forest. A serene pathway led the customers through the bamboo forest into the Chinese garden and most importantly, the waitresses' uniforms were the ancient Qing dynasty's classic qipaos.
The country-bumpkin Bai Yang walked toward the doors while looking around in awe. But he didn't even make it to the doors and was stopped outside.
"Master, may I ask for your dining paiza?" A young man who dressed like a eunuch said coquettishly to Bai Yang.
"What?" Bai Yang couldn't understand what was asked of him.
"It's the membership card…" The doorkeeper was speechless, So this guy came without even knowing what this place was?
Bai Yang scratched his head and pointed at the door, "So… I actually need a membership to eat in your restaurant?"
"Mhmm."
"What the heck. Do you believe that I won't buy this whole place right now?" Bai Yang was angered, How dare you not let me in, I'll buy this restaurant and make myself a bodysuit out of the membership cards…
The 'eunuch' was stunned, he probably never seen someone as idiotic as Bai Yang and didn't know how to react to him all of a sudden.
"Hahaha, what a man with a unique attitude. With what you've just said, I will pay for your meal, how about that?"
A burst of laughter came from behind Bai Yang and said.
Bai Yang turned around and saw a handsome young man exiting a luxurious sports car with a beautiful girl. His hand curled around the beauty's waist with a warm bright smile. The beauty was also smiling shyly on the side.
"Who are you?" Bai Yang raised his brows and asked.
"You are like a cannon, everywhere you go, you couldn't stop blasting people with your venomous mouth." The handsome young man pointed a finger at Bai Yang and said speechlessly.
Bai Yang scratched his head and asked, "Brother, you know me? Don't mind me, I sometimes just lose control over my mouth. I mean no harm."
"I know. Let me introduce myself, this restaurant is my property, my name is Song Yidao." The young man walked forward and raised his hand as he introduced himself.
Instantly, Bai Yang took a few steps backward in shock and said, "What the?
Song Yidao, "...."
"It's not that Song Yidao. Hey, I am being nice here alright, you should return me some goodwill too…"
"I'm Bai Yang. Are you sure you will be paying for the meal?"
Bai Yang looked at the young man with a pair of bright eyes. Although he was not poor, he still wouldn't decline a free meal.
"What a stingy guy. You just scammed a few tens of millions from my grandfather and you are still excited to be able to get a free meal?" Song Yidao said speechlessly.
"Wait a minute. The rich old man who came to buy my wine is your grandfather? Wait, you followed me all the way here? What are you trying to do?" Bai Yang raised his alertness right away.
As he wasn't a true idiot, he was able to deduce the truth easily. The world was not small, Bai Yang wouldn't believe the encounter with Song Yidao here was a mere coincidence, especially when Song Yidao's grandfather just bought the wine from Bai Yang. Tell the others, see if anyone would believe it was just a coincidence?
"Haha, let's go in and we'll talk more." Song Yidao lowered his voice and whispered softly while raising his eyebrows at Bai Yang.
Let's see what game you are trying to play here, Bai Yang was not afraid as well and followed Song Yidao inside.
They walked into the Chinese garden and after taking a few turns, they arrived at a pagoda surrounded by waters and fake mountains. Beautiful waitresses in Chines costumes were all over the place. If it weren't for Song Yidao's presence beside him, Bai Yang probably would've thought he had traveled to another world again…
They walked into the pagoda and settled down in a spacious room. The room had five special waitresses, and each of whom had her own job. There was a specific waitress who only handled the tea, one was sitting on the corner of the room playing the guqin, and there were others that were fanning the customers. All in all, it was a special room with special treatments for special guests.
Then, all kinds of dishes were presented to the table and Bai Yang tucked everything he could into his mouth not giving any attention to what he was actually eating. In the end, he was so full his stomach bulged out like a pregnant lady.
As for giving any special comments on how delicious the food was? Well, forget about it. This country-bumpkin didn't even know what else to say other than the word delicious.
After the table was cleaned and the tea was served, Song Yidao asked the waitresses to leave and thus, began the real talk.
"Brother, I'll be frank. I have a restaurant of my own, which is this place. As you can see, the business here is so good I can be said to be earning a pile of gold every single day. The meal we've just eaten costs at least a hundred thousand. But I want more, I want to further enhance my business." Song Yidao said.
"And? What are you trying to say?" Bai Yang was currently preoccupied with attacking some food stuck in his mouth with a toothpick.
I knew this brat isn't someone ordinary, he really is a loose cannon. No wonder the old man was angry about him, Song Yidao thought in his heart as a smile spread across his face, he continued saying, "So, what I ask is simple. I want to cooperate with you."
Bai Yang immediately understood Song Yidao's intention, he looked at him and said, "You want to do business with me, for the wine?"
Since he was Song Guotao's grandson, it was not a surprise that he would know about the wine. Hence, Bai Yang was not surprised at all.
"Correct, what say you?" Song Yidao nodded.
"Wait a moment, let me make a phone call." Bai Yang interrupted and said.
Song Yidao made a hand gesture to indicate that he wouldn't mind and right in the next second, Bai Yang dialed up to Liu Qingshan.
When the phone was picked up, Bai Yang didn't even care what the old man was saying and he said right away, "Old Man Liu, you've gone back on your words. You'd better come to the Imperial Palace Fine Cuisine right now and beat Song Yidao to death. He is here annoying me for the wine."
Song Yidao, "..."
"Brother, can you not…." At this very moment, Song Yidao nearly burst into tears.
