I am the Holy Poisoner, the Empress advised me to calm down

Having entered here, the fresh aroma of the soup instantly filled Lin Chen's nose...

"It smells so good! What smells so good in this place? Could it be the signature dish you mentioned?"

Lin Chen looked at the prince next to him and said.

"That's exactly what I was telling you about, the restaurant's signature dish. This three-fresh soup is made with a special method. It uses all the most precious ingredients, and then it's simmered over low heat for three or four hours before it's finally cooked to perfection. Of course, the heat must be controlled very well, otherwise it won't taste this good!"

The prince explained carefully to Lin Chen.

"I see. It does sound complicated, but I'm not sure what exactly those precious street food ingredients you mentioned are."

Lin Chen paused and asked.

"Sir, you've asked the right person. I've eaten this dish many times and know it by heart. For example, the most important ingredients in this three-fresh soup include bear paw, sea bass, and pangolin!

They are all very rare ingredients, which are not common even in the largest market in the capital. Well, this store has become famous!"

The prince explained carefully to Lin Chen.

"Well, you explained it very carefully. Come on, let's try the dish you mentioned. I want to see what's so special about it that so many people like it!"

After Lin Chen finished speaking, he walked forward.

At this time, the waiter happened to notice them and rushed to them in a hurry.

"Hello, gentlemen. May I know how many guests there are? How many people are there in total?"

The waiter stood in front of them and asked respectfully.

Lin Chen couldn't help but sigh that the waiter in this restaurant had a very nice attitude!

At least it's better than the last time I took Zhang Xun to that restaurant.

"There are five of us in total. Waiter, please arrange a slightly larger private room for us. It must be good. You don't need to worry about the money. Money is not the problem. The problem is the service!"

The prince stood up and looked at the waiter.

"Okay, no problem. Five people, right? I'll make arrangements for you right away! And please follow me, gentlemen!"

After saying that, the waiter walked forward, and Lin Chen and the others followed closely behind him.

"Dear guests, if you need a better private room, then you have come to the right place. Our restaurant is arguably one of the best in the capital!"

The waiter said enthusiastically.

"Since your restaurant is so famous, but I only heard about it recently, you built it in such a remote place. Why don't you consider changing the location? There are many good locations in the capital with more traffic. If you move this location to the core area of ​​the capital, perhaps your business will be better."

Lin Chen felt a little confused when listening to what the waiter said, and then he expressed his doubts.

"Your Excellency has noticed this. Indeed, the location of our restaurant is a bit remote, but there is a reason for this. Most of the people who come to our restaurant are wealthy nobles and royal relatives, or even some leisurely and elegant scholars. So if we want to accommodate these people, our restaurant is best located in this place. Although this place is a bit remote, it is very quiet and elegant, which is very suitable for hosting these people. And these people also like to come to this place!"

The waiter explained to Lin Chen carefully.

After hearing what the waiter said, Lin Chen had a rough idea in his mind. It turned out that this restaurant was not built to accommodate ordinary people, but to accommodate wealthy aristocrats, royal relatives, and other noble people, or powerful people.

It seems that this restaurant is no different from other restaurants. There is a strict class division in the restaurant, just like the restaurant Lin Chen visited last time. The first floor is used to receive ordinary people, but the second floor is used to receive wealthy nobles. People on the first floor are not allowed to go to the second floor, which forms a strict class division.

In fact, Lin Chen hated this, but he was powerless. It seemed that such rules were tacitly accepted in this world. The strong were superior to the weak, and the weak had no room for resistance at all.

"Well, you explained it very carefully. I roughly understand it. Okay, enough nonsense. Hurry and take us to the private room. I'm a little hungry now!"

Lin Chen came back to his senses and said.

"Alright, alright, gentlemen, follow me. We have a prime private room on the third floor. It used to only accommodate the royal family and nobles, but today it's vacant. Since you're so generous, I'll give it to you today!"

The waiter said with a smile.

Finally, the waiter went upstairs, followed closely by Lin Chen and the prince.

After a while, we arrived at the third floor. The scene on the third floor was completely different from that on the second and first floors. The floors were all covered with red carpets. The most important thing was that all the utensils or things on the third floor looked very valuable. Some tables and chairs were made of golden nanmu, and some tea utensils were made of fine porcelain. Such a large amount of money could not be found even in some restaurants in the most prosperous areas of Beijing. Some places on the third floor felt comparable to the mansions in the imperial palace!

"I didn't expect there was such a hidden gem on the third floor. I really underestimated this place. I haven't seen anything as luxurious as yours anywhere else. There must be a big shot behind this restaurant, right? Or perhaps someone extremely powerful or wealthy!"

Lin Chen looked at the waiter in front of him and asked.

"I'm sorry, sir, I can't answer your question. This concerns the privacy of our owner. The most important thing is that we have an agreement in this restaurant that we cannot pry into anyone's privacy or disclose anyone's privacy. This includes all the members of our restaurant. If any of our staff members casually disclose the privacy of a guest or their own brothers, they will be severely punished. So please forgive me!"

The waiter said.
