Chapter 420 On The Table

Chapter 420 On The Table

Su Jing grabbed the smaller one and it was close to two jin in weight. The surface was covered with mud. It didn’t look like it was dust-covered, but it was like this thing was dragged from the soil and stored without washing it. Su Jing scratched the surface with his hand and found that the surface is rough and hard.

Su Jing took out a piece of cloth and patted off the dust. The light brown color and fine texture were more obvious now. After smelling it, there is a smell that is a bit like garlic, but it is not exactly the same.

“What the hell is this? Why is it so fragrant?” Su Jing was not sure as to what this is. He had never seen such a thing. This thing is packed in such a ragged sack and even thrown away. It is estimated that this is nothing in the “Tomb Of God” Universe.

At this moment, the parrot flew in, Su Jing stepped out of Garbage Station and only listened to the two parrots shouting: “There are guests, there are guests, Manager Li and Wei Xiaoxuan, they said they have something to report to you.”

Su Jing knew the intention of Manager Li and Wei Xiaoxuan, so he prepared to receive them. He looked down at the “lump of mud” in his hand. Finally, he took the “lump of mud” with him and walked out of the first floor.

Opening the courtyard door, he saw a car parked at the door. Wei Xiaoxuan and a middle-aged man in a suit were standing there. This middle-aged man was Manager Li from Juxiang Pavilion, the restaurant that Wang Family had given to Su Jing.

“Hello, Boss.” Manager Li is quite polite. Wang Family paid his salary before so Wang Family was the boss, but now that the restaurant has become Su Jing’s property. Su Jing pays their salary so Su Jing had now become the Boss.

“Manager Li, please come in.” Su Jing also politely invited Manager Li and Wei Xiaoxuan to sit upstairs.

Before going through the yard, Manager Li started to report: “Boss, according to what you said, the Plaque has been made and publicized. Tomorrow, the Plaque will be replaced and Juxiang Pavilion will be changed to ‘Sky of Grass and Fish’.

In fact, Wang Family gave the restaurant to Su Jing and did not ask Su Jing to change its name, but Su Jing did not want to use that name again, because it would be a sign for Wang Family Juxiang Pavilion. Su Jing wants to create his own brand. At first, he thought about getting a good name but then he decided to use the already famous “Sky of Grass and Fish” directly. He will not often cook in restaurants in the future, so Sky of Grass and Fish will definitely be a signature dish, and it will be the best to use it as a sign, and even open a Franchise in the future. Build Sky of Grass and Fish into a big brand.

“Boss, Sky of Grass and Fish has successfully applied for a brand patent, this is the details of the promotion tomorrow.” Wei Xiaoxuan handed a document to Su Jing.

“Very good.” Su Jing nodded, he read the information roughly and said. “Yes, tomorrow’s publicity is also handed over to you. Wait a moment, I will prepare the three treasures(something unique or rare to the restaurant) of the store, and it will be ready soon. You take it to the restaurant. By the way Manager Li, this thing. Do you recognize it?

Su Jing said while handing out the “lump of mud” in his hand, this thing smells so fragrant, it makes people have a big appetite. So Su Jing thought that this could be some kind of food? Manager Li, who is extremely experienced in operating restaurants, may be able to recognize it.

“Let’s see.” Manager Li glanced at the “Lump of mud”, then he was stunned, followed by revealing the unbelievable expression on his face and sniffed it closely before exclaiming, “This is Piedmont White Truffle? Such a big piece?”

“Piedmont White Truffle, what is it?” Su Jing wondered.

“A kind of wild plant fungus, used as a food seasoning, but … the general Piedmont White Truffle isn’t so fragrant, and this piece is too big, where did you get it from? This Piedmont White Truffle, if we take it to the restaurant, it would be more then enough to be considered as the Restaurant Treasure. “Manager Li looked around the Piedmont White Truffle, looking at it from left and right. He was shocked and excited as he couldn’t believe what he was seeing.

“That’s big? And it can still be considered as the Treasure of the Restaurant?” Su Jing smiled as he had taken the smallest one. The others in the sack were bigger than this one. The largest one is atleast several times bigger than this one. Wei Xiaoxuan also stared at the White Truffle curiously and looked at it twice, but it looked as ugly as the lump of mud. What’s so surprising about it? However, it smells really fragrant.

“Boss, you don’t know how rare this thing is. Generally, they are only as big as a golf ball. This is as big as an apple and you can hold it with two hands.” Manager Li was a little speechless as he heard Su Jing. If Su Jing’s words were heard by some Piedmont White Truffle enthusiasts, it is estimated that they would look at Su Jing with murder in their eyes. Manager Li could not help but give some information about this thing to Su Jing and Wei Xiaoxuan.

“Truffles are very picky about the growth environment. As long as there is a slight change in sunlight, water, or soil pH, they cannot grow. People have not yet successfully studied how to cultivate truffles artificially. They can only be dug in nature, so they are very rare. Piedmont White Trufflecan be considered as the king of truffles as it is more rare. It is also called White Diamond. In a good year, the world’s output of this thing is only about three tons.”

“And, the bigger the block, the rarer it was. In 2008, at the Italian Piedmont White Truffle charity auction in Macau, London, Rome and Abu Dhabi, the CEO of Macau Co. bought the largest Piedmont White truffle at the price of 10,000 USD. The Piedmont White Truffle weighted about 1.08 Jin and it was the truffle king of that year. The world’s largest Piedmont White Truffle was discovered in 1954 and it weighed about 2.5 Jin and it is still kept to this day.”

Su Jing and Wei Xiaoxuan both opened their mouths in surprise. So, this piece of Piedmont White Truffle which weighed close to two jins, although it is not as good as those truffle kings but it would be worth more than 10,000 or more than 100,000? Such a humble “lump of mud” is so precious. No wonder Manager Li said that they can use this Piedmont White Truffle as the Treasure in their Restaurant.

“This Piedmont White Truffle is a good seasoning, right?” Su Jing asked.

“Of course, the Piedmont White Truffle itself doesn’t taste much good, but as a seasoning, it’s definitely the best. The taste and smell can be described as unique in the world. I have only heard about it and I also wouldn’t know if it is true or not. It’s more like a spice, it can be cut by a professional knife master into extremely thin slices and every time, you just need to sprinkle some on the ordinary dishes, it will have the effect of turning the taste of dish upside down. “Manager Li said, and quickly added,” But, don’t use this one. If this one is cut with a knife, it’s value will be greatly depreciated. We can take it as the treasure of our Restaurant.”

“Well, I’ll choose another one.” Su Jing looked at the Piedmont White Truffle in his hand and said after thinking about it.

“Choose another one? If you change to a small one, it won’t work as a Treasure as it won’t be considered unique.” Manager Li said, thinking Su Jing was reluctant to take this one out. But it’s no wonder that Su Jing can’t take it out if it’s his.

“No, this one is too small to be sensational enough.” Su Jing said and Manager Li was stunned and then he became petrified on the spot. He couldn’t believe his ears. Such a large piece of Piedmont White Truffle is still too small, that is, Su Jing still has a bigger one?
