The richest man starts from a street stall

Chapter 313 The first English version is hotly pre-sold
The little fat man stood on a stool, glanced at the guests, saw everyone taking photos, and reminded with a smile on his face:

"Guests, please remind me, everyone must keep a low profile and don't post random media."

His joyful words caused the guests to laugh, and the gift of more than 2 million yuan is even more low-key, how can it be low-key.

Chen Shi chatted with his mother-in-law for a while, and when he saw the little fat man doing this, he was a little speechless, but he was also grateful to him in his heart, knowing that he did it for himself.

"Okay, fat man, move your things up to the second floor, don't show off here, it's embarrassing."

"That's great!" The little fat man winked when he saw Chen Shi's words, and then asked people to start carrying the betrothal gifts.

The process of holding an engagement banquet in a rural or township home is not as complicated as in a hotel, and Yu Ran's parents don't say anything polite and generous, but seeing the heavy gift from Chen Shixia, she was so grateful that she shed tears. As the heroine Yuran, seeing her parents behave like this, was also moved to the point of tears.

Under the witness of the guests, President Wang, as a witness, briefly described Chen Shi:
"As for Xiao Chen, I watched him grow up. Although I am not his relative, I regard him as my own child. He is very kind and studies hard. This child is very hard. When he was in college a few years ago, He didn't have a few dollars left on him, and he almost couldn't survive, but luckily he fought his back, succeeded in his career, and survived step by step."

Dean Wang stumbled to finish his officianship speech. The words expressed were not gorgeous, but the language was sincere.

After speaking, Chen Shi gave Yu Ran the engagement ring and put on a Cartier 8-carat wedding diamond ring. Yu Ran couldn't hide the excitement in her heart and shed tears of happiness.

And this 8-carat Cartier classic pear-shaped blue diamond ring is worth 3500 million yuan.

A diamond ring reaching 5 carats is called a "pigeon egg". Of course, a diamond ring reaching 8 carats is a larger pigeon egg.

How big is that 8 carat diamond ring?
A round 8-carat diamond has a girdle diameter of 12.98mm, while a standard round diamond-cut one-carat diamond has a diameter of 6.5mm, which is equivalent to the cross-section of a pencil.

Maybe a one-carat diamond is about one hundred thousand, but an 8-carat diamond is only twice the diameter of a 1-carat diamond, but its market value is tens or hundreds of times, and the larger the size, the rarer it is.

The price of an eight-carat diamond ring first depends on the 4C grade of the diamond, including weight, clarity, cut, color, etc. Different grades range from a few million to tens of millions.

Time was a little tight, so Chen Shi entrusted the company's personnel to purchase, but he only found this relatively good ring.He is currently still looking for a better ring for the client to prepare for the wedding.

Some guests have never seen such a large size diamond. Generally, families only use diamonds worth thirty or forty cents for weddings. If you have the money to buy a diamond ring worth more than 80 cents with a market price of tens of thousands, you are already a wealthy person.

The wedding ceremony is completed, and the banquet is ready to begin.

The banquets held in rural areas are mainly meaty. This time, there are no expensive dishes such as bird's nest, shark's fin, and abalone, but there is no shortage of lobsters and big crabs.

Chicken, duck and fish meat are all local flavors, but it is rare to have a banquet in the city, only the country people are more picky about these.

Several packs of Ruanhua cigarettes, two bottles of Maotai baijiu and two bottles of high-end wine per table cost thousands of dollars per table.

A table of [-] dishes, six cold dishes, two soups and ten hot dishes, is very particular about auspicious numbers.

There are eight major cuisines in Xiaguo cuisine, and each cuisine has countless famous dishes, each with its own characteristics, making people mouth-watering.

The two chefs also put in a lot of effort. If ordinary people can't handle it, the chefs will have a vain reputation.

Crispy but not mushy, tender but not greasy, the first smell is pungent, and the aroma is attractive when you smell it carefully. This is deep-fried soft tofu.It seems simple, but it is not easy to keep the tofu from breaking.

The skin is white and tender, fat but not greasy, fragrant and delicious. This is salted duck.The duck is a local old duck. It is really not easy to eat authentic old local duck in the city.It is difficult for the hotel to purchase a large number of old-fashioned ducks. Although a small amount can be purchased, it is too labor-intensive and cannot keep up with the supply and demand.

For example, it is called summer flower cold dish, cut tomatoes into slices and place them around as petals.Cut the bananas into circles and place them in a layer inside the tomatoes.Put the orange petals in the middle, remove the longan core, and pinch them into stamens of different lengths.It can be said to be layer upon layer, complete in color and fragrance.

It’s not that the chef can’t make something more complicated and gorgeous, but with limited manpower, he makes something simple but also looks fancy. Such pleasing dishes are extremely rare in towns and villages.

The dishes were served one after another, and the guests came in an endless stream. Every time a dish was served, the guests praised it. It felt that it was the best dish that people had ever eaten in their life.

After the food was served, some guests estimated that the cost of a banquet was as high as 5000 yuan.

The expensive dishes are mainly some seafood, which are huge in size and rarely seen in the market.

Of course, wild game did not.

The villages and towns hold wine and eat wine, and they eat fast, but when they meet some alcoholics, they can drink for several hours. Such beautiful wine cannot be taken home. It is quite a pity not to find an excuse to eat more. In the evening, the last guests who love to drink leave the table.

The next day, Chen Shi also left Yu Ran's house and went back to school with Yu Ran.

Yuran's parents are considering whether to close the supermarket, and Luo Xiaofeng is also considering whether to continue to work, but after thinking about it, it feels that they are still not used to the luxurious life and need a transition.

There are two cars at home, Yuran's father can drive, but her mother can't. She feels that she should learn a driver's license.

The betrothal gift of those engagements used part of the house to build their own house, otherwise, the next time the son-in-law came, he would not be able to live in a better place. Thinking of this, the two elders were willing to spend a lot of money.

The houses in the county town should be visited when I have time. I heard that they are all decorated and furnished. I can’t live in so many. I feel that it’s a waste, so I rent out one.

The two elders were planning a luxurious life in the future. It felt too illusory, but the 8-digit number in the bank card was real.

In the past few days, the director of the farmer's cooperative and the chief of the post office in the town have come to the door in person, just to get some savings from them.

In this way, Yu's family is already a household name in the town, and some villagers even go to see it. The supermarket business is better than before.

There are many valuables in the house, Luo Xiaofeng asked people to strengthen the windows and doors of the house, and changed the locks.

On Chen Shi's side, he returned to the three-point-one-line life of the school, company and family.

The English version of "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone", which was originally planned to be released, has been delayed for a few days.

The sales network is still on the online platforms Tbaodimao and Dangdang. After nearly a month of advertising, pre-sales began on February 2.

This book was originally nearly 23 words, but Chen Shi wrote it himself, and it has 27 words. The hardcover edition is about 48 pages, and the price is [-] yuan in China.

The international English version is priced at US$18, but it is only sold in China at present, and the company is discussing cooperation with some famous international publishers.

Near the end of the month, Chen Shi's loyal fans have reached a terrifying 150 million!
Doupo Junding has broken through 200 million, and the daily sales are several million.

Shenshi Group just announced the pre-sale of Harry Potter and the Mysterious Sorcerer's Stone, and it became popular immediately.
