Chapter 1518 Couldn’t Afford a Bowl of Rice

The Renyi Group’s medicated diet brand officially came into the business operation. It attracted the attention of people across the country. Therefore, the opening date had already spread widely on the Internet.

In the morning, they formally announced the medicated diet brand and held the ribbon-cutting ceremony. News reports about them were quickly spread through the Internet and television.

For a time, a great many netizens searched for the news of the medicated diet brand online.

As a result…

After searching for a while, they soon found General Millet’s food livestream.

Upon closer inspection, they found many people had wildly forwarded the link to this livestream. In addition, they noted that the live streamer was trying all the dishes in the medicated diet restaurant.

Full of curiosity…

These people who found the link clicked on it to watch the livestream.

Soon…

As soon as they opened it…

They saw the streamer right in the medicated diet restaurant!

However, it seemed that the livestream had come to an end. All the dishes had been eaten, and nothing was left to eat.

“I want the record of this livestream. Has anyone recorded the livestream?”

“Anyone powerful has the recorded video? Show it to us.”

“Hasn’t the streamer recorded it herself?”

“Please share the video with us!”

In unison…

Countless people in the livestream were asking for a complete video.

Soon, the livestream video was released.

It rushed to the top of the trending topic list in just about half an hour. More and more people saw it. Everyone who watched the livestream video felt reluctant to press the fast-forward button. They carefully watched the whole video with mouths watering copiously.

In addition…

What could spread such news faster than social software like Weibo, post bars, and forums? Undoubtedly, it should be the popular Tsunami short video app.

Almost at the same time as General Millet did the livestream, many people shot short videos of 15 seconds and posted them.

The title was: Try Dishes in the Renyi Group’s Medicated Diet Restaurant.

Soon…

The editor examining the short videos rated it as a high-quality piece of work.

However, this short video was soon deleted. The videos published by General Millet’s personal Tsunami account took its place.

More than 30 short videos appeared one after another.

They introduced all the 30 main courses in the medicated diet restaurant.

These videos soon attracted millions of fans for General Millet. Then, everyone began to repost, like, and comment them frantically.

In just an hour, the number of likes exceeded five million, and the number of comments even reached more than one million.

“A medicated diet? This is apparently the king’s lunch!”

“What the hell! Even the dishes could appear so luxurious?”

“How terrifying! This price nearly scares me to death!”

“1999 yuan for a cold dish? 2599 yuan for a pot of soup? 4999 yuan for a tray of steamed buns with magic herbs? This is fucking scary!”

“Luxurious and high-end. We can’t afford to eat any of them.”

“I’ve watched the livestream. Millet ate hungrily with huge mouthfuls. My mouth watered.”

“Can I go in and just have a bowl of rice?”

There were all kinds of comments.

They filled the comment area of each short video.

After watching more than 30 short videos, they found almost every short video was very popular. Even the least popular short video had more than three million likes, and the number of likes of other short videos was above five million.

Moreover, as time went by, these figures were rising rapidly.

There was a series of short videos.

They sparked a storm of discussion on the Tsunami app for short videoes.

Of course…

As the short videoes went viral on the Tsunami app…

Many people reposted these short videos on Weibo. Then, more people could see the dishes in the medicated diet restaurant.

Soon after…

A topic named “Medicated Diet Restaurant Menu” appeared on Weibo.

Countless people entered and began to discuss these dishes wildly.

In this topic…

Someone even took many screenshots and recorded each main course of the medicated diet restaurant. Then, the person composed them into a long picture and published it.

This long picture included images of the dishes taken on the spot, pictures of various dishes on the menu, and their prices!

Everyone saw this long map.

They were shocked!

“Cold Purple Leaf Ginseng in Sauce?”

The most eye-catching thing was this cold dish, which was rare among the 30 main dishes. Just a cold dish was sold at a high price of 1999 yuan.

Everyone who saw it was astonished.

However…

Before this, they had never seen the purple leaf ginseng mixed with the sauce. If the ingredients were enough, such a high price was acceptable.

“This dish looks quite exquisite, but it’s overly expensive. I can buy many cold dishes with 1999 yuan. Is the exorbitant price because of the purple leaf ginseng?”

“It’s so expensive.”

“I have to say that every dish looks particularly exquisite and appetizing, but the moment I see the price, I feel bitterly dejected.”

“All those dishes are good-looking. The arrangement of those cooked pieces gives the whole dish an artistic look. They are indeed in line with the Renyi Group’s high-quality requirements toward its products.”

“Sure enough, I can’t afford those high-end products of the Renyi Group!”

“In contrast, I’m more willing to spend my money on its Life-prolonging Earthly Immortal Pill and Trillium Root-Securing Pill.”

“Prohibitive prices.”

“It’s good to watch and appreciate the series of dishes, but don’t think about eating them!”

There was a continuous stream of comments.

After all…

There had never been such a high-end restaurant in the country. The steep price of the dishes proved this restaurant to be top-notch. In addition, all its dishes were eminent above all the other famous ones.

Though in shock…

Many people could understand the Renyi Group. After all, the quality of the Renyi Group’s products was guaranteed.

Besides, when the Renyi Group announced the plan for this medicated diet restaurant, it made it clear that this restaurant would represent a high-end brand.

They just did what they were supposed to do.

No matter how expensive these dishes were, they had nothing to do with those who couldn’t afford them.

But…

Some people were displeased.

How could so many people support such high prices? Then, this group of people couldn’t help criticizing this matter.

“Shame on you! How can a dish be so expensive?”

“They are so black-hearted to set such high prices!”

“The Renyi Group is going to make some black money.”

“Does the Renyi Group plan to cheat the public with its reputation?”

“Making dark money brings bad luck. Aren’t you afraid of that?”

After a few critical remarks, a group of professional trolls released a torrent of abuse and complaints against the Renyi Group and the medicated diet restaurant.

Just then…

Suddenly…

General Millet published a Weibo post.

“I took a lot of effort to shoot these pictures in the medicated diet restaurant. There are the ingredients for each dish and an interview in the kitchen.”

Under this Weibo post…

There was a long picture.

It clearly showed the ingredients of 30 dishes, her impressions of this meal, and how each dish could heal people.

As soon as this Weibo post emerged…

It attracted the attention of countless people.

Everyone clicked to check it out.

There…

The first dish was Lily-Rose Sweet Rice.

Materials: yams, lilies, roses…

The yams could replenish energy, reinforce insufficiency, clear heat and cold, and remove pathogenic factors. Also, it could be used for tonifying the spleen and Qi and building muscles. People could hear and see well if they took it for a long time. The lilies…

After these netizens read it thoroughly…

They couldn’t help but widen their eyes.

“What the fuck. How could it be so complex to make a meal?”

“The medicated diet is worthy of the name. Even a small bowl of rice needs so many ingredients!” The source of this ᴄontent is novelenglish.net . (f)ire.ɴet - novelenglish.net . bin

“These medicinal herbs are not cheap. Customers will not be just content to fill their stomachs. What they care about are these medicinal herbs. Most importantly, these dishes are delicious even with the medicinal herbs.”

“I watched the video of Millet trying this meal. This fellow enjoyed it very much. The medicated diet restaurant didn’t offer a free meal and only gave her a 5% discount. These 30 dishes cost her over a hundred thousand yuan!”

“Is it really that delicious? It’s just a bowl of rice. Everyone eats rice every day. How could it be described as such a dainty dish?”

“I wonder how much this bowl of rice is.”

With doubts…

Everyone looked down.

They found a few words at the bottom of this bowl of rice: Free and Unlimited.

But it also noted that customers must buy at least one dish to get the free rice.

When these netizens saw this line of words…

They felt like crying.

“That is to say, we must spend at least 1999 yuan to eat such a bowl of rice?”

“I thought I could afford a bowl of rice, but now it seems I was overly optimistic!”

The netizens couldn’t help smiling bitterly.

They continued to read.

Below the picture of every dish was the detailed introduction of ingredients.

They would shrink back even at the sight of these materials.

The cost of those Chinese medicinal herbs was prohibitive.

Besides, the prices were clearly marked.

Prices for dishes other than those basic ones ranged from 1999 to 4999 yuan.

For example, the price of Cold Purple Leaf Ginseng in Sauce was 1999 yuan.

A pot of stewed chicken with the tuber of multiflower knotweed would cost 2599 yuan.

Dishes with Desert Cistanche, dendrobe, and Tianshan Snow Lotus were the most treasured ones in the restaurant. The price for each dish was 4999 yuan.

They finished viewing the 30 dishes.

Everyone couldn’t help swallowing their saliva. Even if they just saw the pictures, they were tempted. After all, General Millet’s tasting report was outstandingly well-written, and these dishes looked exceptionally attractive.

“Lastly…

“This is the kitchen!”

General Millet showed the kitchen entrance at the end of the long picture. Under the picture, she wrote, “Taking photos of the kitchen is not allowed. So, I just add a few photos of the Chinese medicinal herbs in the medicated diet restaurant and the photo of the head chef.”

Below these words…

There were photos of many Chinese medicinal herbs.

“These Chinese medicinal herbs are the top herbs in the country. All of them are specially supplied by the Renyi Group. Notably, only the Renyi Group has three unique Chinese medicinal herbs: Desert Cistanche, dendrobe, and Tianshan Snow Lotus. They are professional medicinal herbs for the Trillium Root-Securing Pill, the Life-prolonging Earthly Immortal Pill, and the Holy Flowers Formula.”

When everyone saw this…

They were startled.

“Since the restaurant has top-notch medicinal herbs, its food ingredients must be the best in the world. The ingredients of the medicated diet restaurant are all delivered by air from all over the world. They are very fresh.

“I’ve checked them carefully. Each of their ingredients and herbs is of top-grade quality!”

When everyone looked at General Millet’s introduction…

They immediately understood something.

Why were the dishes in the medicated diet restaurant so expensive?

These dishes were made of these top-class materials. How could they not be expensive?

“Finally, let me warmly welcome the head chef of the medicated diet restaurant.

“He is a descendant of a prestigious family of chefs. His ancestors were chefs cooking medicated diets for emperors in the imperial palaces. Master Li Guangcheng is responsible for cooking all the dishes in the medicated diet restaurant.”

At the end of the long picture, she added a photo of Li Guangcheng.

After all the trolls on the Internet finished seeing it…

They finally shut up.

The descendant of the imperial chefs personally cooked with top-notch Chinese medicinal herbs and ingredients. How could these dishes not be expensive?

At first, they thought the prices were unreasonably high. But after viewing these pictures, they suddenly felt these dishes’ prices were very reasonable and not expensive at all!

The netizens also sighed with emotion.

“Awesome.”

“They are indeed authentic products of the Renyi Group.”

“It’s no longer a matter of money for me. No matter what, I must have a meal there in my life!”

“I had thought that finding a wife was no longer a problem because I had a car and a house. But now there seems to be another requisite: I must treat my future wife to a lavish meal in the medicated diet restaurant!”
