Chapter 162 - 162 62 The American Turtle Man Brings Shock to Cheng Daqi

162: Chapter 62: The American Turtle Man Brings Shock to Cheng Daqi 162: Chapter 62: The American Turtle Man Brings Shock to Cheng Daqi Cheng ‘Just 10 percent, Mi’er, I’ll go talk to her, but there’s something else I need to ask for your help.’

Lisa ‘You talk to her first, and if there’s a result, come find me.

Whether she truly plans to invest or is just talking big, I will put in two hundred thousand.’

Besides, I’m willing to help, but I won’t do anything that breaks the law.’

Cheng ‘The party tomorrow is almost ready, we’ve got booze and meat, handsome guys and tough men, we’re just missing a blonde bombshell to perform and showcase her talents.’

Lisa has posted quite a few singing and dancing videos on social media, and this girl truly has talent.

She knows her folk and pop music well, and she’s fluent in both Russian and English.

She hasn’t posted many dance videos, but in the few short clips she has, her form and rhythm are impressive, certainly someone with a background in this field.

Rolling her eyes, Cheng Daqi’s flattery was too blatant, and Lisa felt a bit annoyed.

Yet the uncontrollable curve of her lips betrayed her true feelings inside.

Lisa ‘Alright, you owe me a big meal.

After what she said today, every bite I eat feels scary.’

After talking with Temir, Lisa more or less understood Temir’s thinking, but it still felt a bit over the top for her.

Cheng ‘No problem, I’ll take you to Hua Country for an authentic state banquet if there’s a chance.

Come over at five in the afternoon tomorrow, come a bit early since I’ll be live streaming, so I need to go over the camera positions with you in advance.’

A chance to go to Hua Country, to have a state banquet.

This pie was too brazen, and Lisa found it absurd.

Lisa ‘I know it’s not easy inviting me over for a meal, Chan.

I’m not after a state banquet, something ordinary is fine, even KFC wouldn’t be out of the question.’

Chan, no need to promise me the moon, KFC would be enough for me.

Cheng ‘NO, it’s settled.

Amid the vast sea of people in America, you, Lisa, are the only friend I have like this.’

Add a few more drops of oil to the pie and a sprinkle of salt.

Lisa ‘(The single-hand chin-supporting eyebrow-raising emoji from the Orange phone)’

Cheng Daqi insisted, he wouldn’t even consider asking her to KFC.

If he says state banquet, it’s a state banquet.

You treat me to top-notch French cuisine, and I’ll have to reciprocate with a Hua Country state banquet for you!

Let you witness Hua Country’s crushing dominance over France in the arena of top-tier cuisine!

For the past few centuries, with the economic and national power of Europe being strong, many of their things have been highly praised, like their food.

But stripping away those filters, the reality of European food is far behind when compared to the diverse cuisine of Hua Country.

That’s coming from a long historical period when the quality of life for European nobility was relatively lower than that in Hua Country.

Plainly speaking, their ancestors didn’t leave behind much.

Since the Renaissance, the bloom of thought has led to bigger centralized governments, and Europe gradually moved from lord-based feudalism to a nobility-based feudal system, slowly improving the quality of life for European lords.

Unlike Hua Country, which started unifying under one rule two thousand years ago.

Having established centralized power early, Hua Country also ventured into the realms of gourmet exploits sooner.

Although initially limited by the lack of spices and tools, making progress slow.

But accumulated over time, Hua Country’s advantage in the culinary field is overwhelming.

With the development of modern productivity, those delicacies once reserved for ancient royalty could now be enjoyed by common folk.

(Not mentioning protections for animals here, those are exceptions)

There’s a prevalent internet apologist’s point of view that’s spread far and wide.

They say that foreign top cuisine seeks the true taste of the food, and that Hua Country’s dishes merely involve lots of seasonings and processes.

But as Hua Country’s economy has risen, Hua Country restaurants are becoming more and more recognized abroad, and this view is self-defeating.

The more Cheng Daqi thought about it, the more he felt that making short videos about Hua Country cuisine in America would be a good niche.

Even opening a Hua Country restaurant wouldn’t be bad, operating on a large scale with a chain franchise using capital management strategies.

With his connections with Eli and Li Haiping, he could also bring in a lot of skilled labor from Hua Country.

After all, with the currency exchange rate between China and America being what it is, as long as living expenses are covered, a monthly salary of over four thousand would be fine for Hua Country workers, their skills and abilities are not an issue, and they could definitely bring some delicious surprises to the American people.

He hadn’t expected that chatting with Lisa would not only bring in a talent performance but also spark some creative ideas.

“Chan, we’ve bought fruits, vegetables, meat, alcohol, and drinks, and spent all the money.”

Sani dragged several bags through the door of the large house, her hands full.

“The supermarket had a discount on cakes; we got a huge cream fruit cake for only forty-eight dollars.

Scott said that normally such a cake could cost over two hundred dollars, isn’t that a great deal!”

Having set down the bags, the Black sister wiped the sweat from her face, her smile showing genuine happiness.

She truly felt like she had struck a bargain, saving over a hundred dollars on a cake was like a windfall.

“Okay, you guys take a break first, I’ll put these things in the fridge.

I’ll go find Domo later.”

This big house’s comfort level was due to all sorts of things, like this luxurious double-door fridge that easily accommodated the groceries the friends had bought.

The most impressive part was a separate temperature-controlled chilled section of the fridge.

Pushing the cake in, setting the temperature to 1°, and presto.

Elder Li, you really are my benefactor.

This house is simply too awesome, everything is comfortable.

The only drawback is, I actually have to pay rent!

Only if Li Haiping could hear Cheng Daqi’s words, he surely would’ve transformed into a Berserker and decisively pressed Cheng Daqi to the bottom of the pool.

“I don’t need to rest, Chan.

Is there any other work?”

What does it mean to be the chosen one of the working class, what is the holy body of laborers.
