Power of Money

Chapter 251

Looking at Jason eating the mushroom on the plate like a gentleman.

Then he helped Lusa to cut off the root of the mushroom on her plate. Belinda looked at Jason with disbelief. She thought Jason only knew the fried sausages in cheap restaurants, how could he know so well about these high-end dishes? NôvelDrama.Org (C) content.

"The mushroom has a smoked taste, but it's not very strong. Moreover, it has the flavor of the mushroom itself, which tastes surprisingly good."

Jason said, and then separated the mushrooms on Lusa's parents' plates. Then he wiped his hands with a paper towel, picked up the cup and took a sip of water.

Horace was stunned and quickly followed Jason's example. He helped Belinda and her mother to cut the mushrooms, the way he looked at Jason was even more different.

"Sir, how would you like your steaks done?"

After the appetizer, the waiter came to clean up the tableware and asked the next main meal politely.

"Medium please. I'm used to eating some raw. Only in this way can the beef show it's original taste." Belinda said proudly as if she was eager to perform.

"Then I also want medium, just like my daughter." It was the first time for Belinda's mother to eat Western food, and she knew nothing about steak, but she still wanted to show off in front of Lusa's family, so she hurriedly followed her daughter's words.

"What about uncle and aunt?"

Horace didn't say anything, but cast his eyes on Jason. Jason smiled and turned to Lusa's parents.

"Well..." Lusa's mother hesitated for a moment and said, "What is medium? Does that mean 50 percent cooked? Will that be too raw? How about... 80 percent cooked?"

Lusa's father also said, "Well, me too."

"Puff!"

Unexpectedly, as soon as they finished speaking, Belinda laughed out loud.

"Haha, 80 percent cooked? What are you talking about? We don't say that in western food! We only say 'Rare, Medium-Rare, Medium, Medium- well and Well-Done'. It's really funny. This is a Michelin restaurant. It's too embarrassing to say this in such a high-end restaurant!"

Belinda's words made Lusa's parents blush.

They had never eaten Western food.

At most, they've watched people eating Western food in the TV series.

This had nothing to do with their consumption ability. It was because they were old and came from the countryside, they repelled these foreign things in their hearts. But they didn't expect that after considering seriously, they were still laughed at by Belinda.

Belinda's mother also complained, "Yes, if you don't understand, you can ask. Don't pretend that you understand and make people laugh at you. You can order the same way as me. Everyone is eating like this. Why can't you eat like this?"

Lusa's father hesitated for a moment, then turned to look at Jason and said, "What do you think?"

Jason was also surprised. He didn't expect that Lusa's parents would take the initiative to ask him.

"What kind of beef did we order?" Jason asked the waiter.

"Formosan beef, sir. You only have to choose the way to cook your steak." The waiter explained.

Jason nodded and said, "Then we'd like four well-done steaks, thanks."

"Okay, what about this gentleman?" The waiter turned to look at Horace.

"Well, well-done too, please." Horace thought for a while and said.

"Okay, please wait a moment."

After the waiter left, Belinda turned her head in confusion and looked at Horace. She asked, "What's wrong with you? It's okay if they don't understand. But why you act like it's your first time to come here? Well-done steak? Only the people from the countryside who eat steak for the first time will order this okay? Or do you want to follow them in this way, because you don't want them to be embarrassed?"

Although Belinda was talking to Horace, she was talking about Jason and Lusa's family that they were all from countryside and ordered well-done steak in such a high-end restaurant.

Horace did not answer her. Instead, he smiled and asked Jason, "Jason, is there anything special about this Formosan beef?"

He noticed that Jason had deliberately asked about the type of beef. In general, only those who knew very well about western food would ask such questions. Moreover, Jason's explanation and eating method had already surprised him. Now, Jason was not a fake rich second generation who rented a car at all. He was a real rich person who had a good taste.

"Formosan beef is the only steak that is suitable for the Chinese taste. It doesn't pursue the so- called tender and juicy like Sirloin and Tenderloin. Only the well- done beef can make it taste like spiced beef, but it is fresher than spiced beef, keeping the original juice and taste of the steak. It is also a pursuit of the enjoyment for our stomach, not only our tongue..."

Jason explained calmly and did not take the eyes of the people on the opposite side seriously.

Soon, seven different steaks were served on the table by the waiter.

Jason cut the four steaks in front of him, and then put them in front of Lusa and her parents.

At the same time, Horace, who was on the opposite side, had already cut off a piece of steak and put it into his mouth to chew slowly.

"Well...'

A satisfied moan came out of his mouth.

"Brilliant, I really didn't expect that eating a piece of steak should have so many rules. Previously, I had learnt from those big bosses to just order medium or medium-done and I thought that was the standard for steak. This well-done steak is really different. It is not fishy or irritating in the stomach... I really have learned a lot from you..."

Seeing Horace eating and praising regardless of his image, Belinda ate her plate first in disbelief, then she stuck out her fork, took out a piece of Horace's steak, and chewed it in her mouth.

"In fact, steak is not completely suitable for Chinese people. We Chinese people are mainly composed of cooked food, while the half-cooked food that foreigners love to eat, which looks elegant, but it may not suitable our stomach that is used to well-cooked food for many years. After all, when we taste a food, in addition to taking into account the enjoyment of the taste buds, the stomach bearing pressure should not be ignored as well."

As Jason spoke, he was also eating slowly, looking quite gentlemanly.

After eating the steak on Horace's plate, Belinda's face was still cold, even though she praised the taste from the bottom of her heart.

Of course, the most miserable one was Belinda's mother.

It was the first time for her to eat steak.

Medium steak.

Almost with blood in it.

She was so sick that she almost vomited several times.

But looking at the Lusa family who was enjoying themselves on the opposite side, at this moment, she had the same thought as her daughter, no matter when, they could not lose to Lusa's family. Even if they were eating sh*t at this moment, they had to act as if they were particularly enjoying.

After eating steak, Jason ordered a cod fillet alone, which shocked everyone again.

It was just a cod fillet, but the waiter suddenly took out a whole box of knives and asked them to choose.

There were rose-wood, ebony-wood, tie-wood, horn- wood, peach- wood. They were all dazzled.

However, Jason showed them how to eat it again. When it came to dessert, he asked for a bottle of sparkling wine. On his way to the bathroom, he paid the bill.

The total cost was twenty- one thousand yuan.

But when he was about to return to the dining table, he met Horace who hurried over.

"You, you are Master Qin, aren't you?"

Horace had just thought highly of Jason before, but now he was trembling all over. He looked at Jason nervously, his face full of trepidation.

"I'm Jason Qin. Why did you suddenly change your way of addressing me?" Jason asked in confusion.

"No, no... I know your true identity. Although you have been keeping a low profile, I know that you must be Master Qin. I have offended you and Lusa before. Please forgive me!"

Horace said with cold sweat all over his head. Then he bowed respectfully to Jason and said in a low voice, "Please forgive me!"
