Chapter 175: Chapter 175: Medicinal Cuisine Workshop

Upon returning home, Xu Yang’s phone started ringing; it was a call from Xu Zhen.

“Director Xu,” Xu Yang answered the phone.

“President Xu, the opening ceremony for ‘I Am Not the Medicine God’ is the day after tomorrow. Do you have time to come by?” Xu Zhen asked.

“I have time, I’m not doing anything anyway.” Xu Yang had never attended a film’s opening ceremony and had nothing to do, so he decided to go take a look.

“Great, the opening ceremony will be held here in the capital. I’ll send you the specific time and location,” Xu Zhen said.

“Okay,” Xu Yang nodded and hung up the phone.

Before long, Xu Yang received the time and address from Xu Zhen.

It was set for Friday morning at ten o’clock, in a hotel on the outskirts.

After a while, Xu Yang heard the WeChat notification sound.

He opened it and found that Wang Xiaocong had created a group chat.

He added Jiang Yuheng and Su Wenbin to it.

Wang Xiaocong: Did everyone get the call from Xu Zhen, asking us to join the opening ceremony? Are you guys going?

Xu Yang: I promised Xu Zhen I would go. I’m the main investor of the movie, so naturally, I should show my support.

Jiang Yuheng: I asked Xu Zhen if Xu Yang was going, and Xu Zhen said Xu Yang had agreed, so of course, I’m going too.

Su Wenbin: Me too, Xu Yang, Old Jiang, let’s go together when the time comes.

The three of them being from Jiang City, they naturally planned to go together.

Wang Xiaocong: Alright, I’ll wait for you guys here.

There wasn’t much else to talk about, just confirming this matter.

Wang Xiaocong had set up the WeChat group so that it would be convenient to discuss things in the future.

Now, the four of them were a group.

Jiang Yuheng and Su Wenbin had already become shareholders in Xu Yang’s company, and it could be said that they formed a very solid interest community.

Although he and Xu Yang had invested together in ‘I Am Not the Medicine God,’ it was just one film. He still hoped that, like Jiang Yuheng and Su Wenbin, he could become a shareholder in the company.

Even if he couldn’t invest and become a shareholder in the company right away, if Xu Yang was interested in any projects in the future and they invested together, that would be okay too.

The following afternoon,

Xu Yang, along with Jiang Yuheng and Su Wenbin, took a flight to the capital.

This was Xu Yang’s second visit to the capital.

The last time he was here was for the opening ceremony of the capital’s branch of his company.

He didn’t do any sightseeing, just attended the opening ceremony and then left for Guang City to attend another opening ceremony.

This time, Xu Yang wanted to bring Zhao Yuxin along, but she had to work and wasn’t too interested in the opening ceremony, so she didn’t come with him.

Upon arriving in the capital, they went to the hotel where the opening ceremony was being held.

The other three investors, Xu Zhen, Wu Jing, and Xue Zhanhua had already arrived and were waiting for the four at the entrance.

“Director Wu, you’re here too; I thought you’d be busy filming ‘War Panther 2’ and wouldn’t come,” Xu Yang said with a smile.

“President Xu, ‘War Panther 2’ is indeed being filmed, and we’ve already finished some domestic scenes. We’re preparing to head to Africa for shooting soon; for the next few days we’re just preparing, so I have some time and decided to come by,” Wu Jing replied.

“I see,” Xu Yang nodded in understanding.

After some pleasantries, Wang Xiaocong said, “Let’s go, I’ll treat everyone to a meal today. I’ll take you to a private restaurant that will definitely satisfy you, I guarantee you’ve never been there before.”

Jiang Yuheng couldn’t help but say, “Old Wang, that’s quite a claim. It’s understandable to say that Xu Yang, Old Su, and I, being from outside the capital, have never been there, but Director Xu, Director Wu, and President Xue are all locals. How can you be so sure they haven’t been there?”

Wang Xiaocong chuckled and said, “This private restaurant is run by a friend of mine, and it just opened three days ago. I don’t believe the three of them could have been there already.”

Having said that, he looked towards Xue Zhanhua and the others.

“`

All three shook their heads: “Haven’t been there.”

It wasn’t far from here, just half an hour’s drive away.

“Medicinal Cuisine Workshop?”

Getting out of the car and arriving at the entrance, they saw the signboard with the big characters, “Baihui Medicinal Cuisine Workshop.” Everyone couldn’t help but feel a little stunned.

“That’s right, the Medicinal Cuisine Workshop, guaranteed to surprise you all.”

Wang Xiaocong led everyone inside.

As soon as they entered, a young man came to greet them.

“Mr. Wang, you’re here.” The young man greeted them with a beaming smile.

“This is my friend Huang Hao, the owner of this Medicinal Cuisine Workshop,” Wang Xiaocong introduced. “These few people are Xu Zhen and Wu Jing, you must know them, this is Mr. Xue from Hua’an Film and Television, this is Mr. Xu from Jiang Bottom Fishing, and these two are Young Master Jiang and Young Master Su, just like me.”

Huang Hao smiled and said, “Hello everyone, welcome to my Medicinal Cuisine Workshop. I’ve prepared a private room for you all, please follow me.”

Huang Hao led the group to the most prestigious Tianzi private room on the second floor.

This was the most honored private room.

To receive someone of Wang Xiaocong’s status, naturally, the most honored private room was used.

Once everyone was seated and tea was served, Huang Hao began to introduce the concept of medicinal cuisine.

In essence, it meant enjoying delicious food while also benefiting your health.

After Huang Hao finished introducing, Wang Xiaocong chuckled and said, “Huang Hao left out one thing, let me add it. Many medicinal dishes have a function: nourishing the kidneys, which can enhance *that* ability. Everyone, if you have the chance, should eat more medicinal cuisine, I guarantee it will make your wife or girlfriend more satisfied.”

The group exchanged glances and revealed knowing smiles.

Such a function was very attractive to men, after all.

“Then let’s get the dishes out quickly, Old Wang, we don’t know how to order, you arrange it,” Jiang Yuheng said with a laugh.

“Actually, I don’t know either, let’s let Huang Hao arrange it, he’ll take care of it perfectly,” Wang Xiaocong said. “Huang Hao, there are just seven of us, you see fit how to arrange it.”

It was best to leave the arrangements to Huang Hao. If Huang Hao couldn’t even manage that, then he didn’t deserve to be his friend.

Huang Hao nodded: “No problem, I’ll take care of it, you guys just wait.”

…

One hour later.

Under Huang Hao’s escort, everyone walked out of the Medicinal Cuisine Workshop feeling completely satisfied.

“Old Wang, the medicinal cuisine was really beyond words, Jiangcheng should have it too. I’ll definitely visit the Medicinal Cuisine Workshop more often,” Jiang Yuheng said with a smile.

“You’re right, it’s got me feeling a bit impulsive now,” Su Wenbin nodded repeatedly, clearly very content.

Previously, they hadn’t eaten medicinal cuisine.

Unexpectedly, it was quite magical. They had to eat more of it in the future.

“Ha-ha, it’s good to feel impulsive. I’ll take you to a club that will surely satisfy you, how about that?” Wang Xiaocong laughed.

“Er… we don’t need to do that,” Su Wenbin said, a bit speechless.

“What do you mean ‘don’t need to’? Today, I just want to treat you all well,” Wang Xiaocong said.

“Xu Yang, what do you say?” Jiang Yuheng was indifferent and sought Xu Yang’s opinion.

If Xu Yang said they should go, he would also go.

“What can I say? Of course, I’m going back to the hotel to rest. I have a wife, and I can’t be flirting around outside,” Xu Yang said.

“Damn, Xu Yang, do you have to be so serious? It’s okay for a man to have a bit of fun outside, as long as you have your wife in your heart,” Wang Xiaocong said.

“No, it’s a matter of principle. I won’t go and touch that,” Xu Yang shook his head seriously.
