My Mind Goes Straight To the Sea - Chapter 92
At nine o’clock in the morning, Saurus came to pick up Yuyou to visit the competition venue, and introduced other judges and relevant persons in charge to her.
Century City is located on the island of Seni. The buildings in the coastal city are like a crescent moon, and it can be reached by boat in less than ten minutes. With beautiful environment and pleasant climate, it is a holy place for tourism and vacation.
Among the nine judges of this competition, Yu You is the youngest and the least qualified, and is also the only oriental judge. Yuyou didn’t know his qualifications as a judge, which was earned by Saurus and many aquarists. The circle of fish friends is relatively simple, and everything is based on strength, but when it comes to such large-scale competitions, it is inevitable that some complex elements are mixed.
Yu You can clearly feel the contempt of others. They don’t show this contempt on their faces. On the contrary, they are quite polite when facing her, but when it comes to professional topics, they will subconsciously ignore her, as if they will ignore her. She treats it as a beautiful ornament.
Yuyou also has no interest in integrating into their circle, instead focusing on ornamental fish. In terms of marine ornamental fish, foreign countries are more popular than domestic ones. But when it comes to freshwater ornamental fish, country Z has the longest history. With the increasing number of ornamental fish lovers, raising tropical ornamental fish has become the second largest pet industry in many countries.
In the hall of Century City, there are several huge glass wall columns, which are connected to the underground ocean passage, where all kinds of strange seawater ornamental fish swim in it.
Rare varieties in China can be seen everywhere here, but the grades are uneven.
“K.” Saurus’ voice came from behind, Yuyou turned his head to look, and saw that he was walking with two foreigners, a man and a woman.
“Let me introduce you, this is David and Evely, one of the sponsors of the contest.”
There are 20 or 30 well-known companies in total in the sponsors of this competition, most of which are related to environmental protection, public welfare, aquatic products, transportation and other industries.
The two men and women in front of them are both young men in their twenties. They are bright-looking, well-dressed, and their skin is a healthy wheat color. It seems that they should regularly engage in outdoor sports.
“Saurus, she is K?” Evely looked Yuyou up and down, with a look of disapproval on her face, “Looks like she’s underage, is she really as powerful as you say?”
“Of course.” Saurus complimented, “She is definitely one of the best fish farmers I know.”
“I trust your judgment.” David smiled and stretched out his hand, “Nice to meet you, Miss K.”
Yuyou shook hands with him, then looked at Saurus, wondering why he introduced the two to her.
“K, we are going to have dinner, do you want to join us?”
Yuyou thought for a while, then nodded in agreement. Going out, the necessary communication is also indispensable. Besides, Saurus was kind to her, and she really had no reason to reject his kindness.
Yuyou’s bodyguard received the news and waited at the door.
David and Evely saw the bodyguard and asked strangely, “Who is this?”
“K’s bodyguard.” Saurus replied casually.
David and Evely looked at each other, wondering in their hearts, didn’t Saurus say she was just the owner of a small shop? How come there are bodyguards? You must know that the cost of hiring a bodyguard is not low. Even if they are a rich second-generation, they generally do not hire any bodyguards.
“I’ve already reserved a table at the restaurant. It’s not far from here, just a few minutes’ walk.” Saurus greeted, “K, let’s go, I’ll take you to taste our country Y’s food.”
Food in country Y? Isn’t it the world-recognized dark food?
Yuyou didn’t have any expectations for the food he said.
Several people came to a coastal restaurant called “Kaly”, and as soon as they were seated, they heard many people greeting Saurus, who was obviously a frequent visitor here.
Yuyou glanced at the menu and found that this restaurant mainly serves dishes from country F and very few dishes from country Y. She couldn’t help but glance at Saurus. Is this what he calls “country Y cuisine”?
Yuyou didn’t have much appetite, so he only ordered a Paella and a drink.
“The snail sausage here is very delicious, do you want to try it?” Saurus warmly recommended.
Yuyou politely declined, not quite convinced by Saurus’ definition of “delicious”.
Although Yuyou’s refusal made him a little regretful, it did not prevent him from choosing his favorite food.
Ten minutes later, when an extended plate of “ruinchang” was placed on the table, Yuyou was silent.
Looking at the “ruthless intestine” on the table, which was as long as an arm, she couldn’t help but took out her mobile phone, snapped a few pictures, and sent them to Lu Jingyi on the other side of the ocean.
Lu Jingyi, who was testing the data, received this purple “ruthless intestine”, thought for a long time, and finally replied: [Xiaoyu, are you dissatisfied with my length? 】
Yuyou: “…” You think too much!
After the meal was served, several people enjoyed their lunch happily, chatting and laughing, and the atmosphere was quite harmonious.
At this moment, a waiter came over, handed a bottle of red wine, and smiled: “Several, this is the champagne specially presented by our boss, I wish you a happy meal.”
“What a surprise, there is still a gift?” Saurus took the champagne, looked down, and said in surprise, “This is Shipwrecked 2009 Heidsieck? (Snow Champagne
This Shipwrecked2009 Heidsieck is worth at least $5,000, more than the cost of dining for the four of them. How could the restaurant owner give such an expensive gift?
At this time, the waiter said respectfully to Yu You again: “Miss Yu, it is a great honor for you to come to our store.”
Yuyou: “???”
Saurus three: “???”
When the waiter completed the task and was about to leave, someone next to him protested dissatisfiedly: “Why do they have free champagne, but we don’t?”
“Yeah? Why?” Other customers also echoed.
The waiter replied calmly: “Because these are the boss’s friends.”
Everyone immediately stopped talking. People give wine to friends, of course, what else can outsiders say?
“K, do you know the owner of this restaurant?” Saurus asked in surprise. Although Kaly is not a star-rated restaurant, it is very famous in this generation and has been in business for half a century. It has a unique flavor and a deep heritage.
Yuyou shook his head: “I don’t know.”
The three looked in disbelief, how could they give champagne if they didn’t know each other?
Yuyou asked, “Do you know the name of the restaurant owner?”
Saurus replied, “I just know that everyone calls him Mr. Rupert.”
“Rupert?” This surname is very unfamiliar, and Yuyou is sure that he has not heard it before.
This time, plus yesterday at the mall, she was treated inexplicably and completely confused.
She has spent most of her life in country Z, and apart from aquarists, there are only a few foreign friends that Ovie knows. Not to mention whether they have this wealth, even if they do, their friendship is not so deep that they are treated with courtesy everywhere.
The most likely ones at the moment are the Owen brothers. She has saved their lives, but aren’t they busy dealing with family disputes? Why don’t you have time to follow her? Besides, their business is mainly jewelry, so the food and beverage retail industry should be rarely involved, right?
As for Lu Jingyi, they are taking the technology route, and they are not on the same page.
So, who is it? The other party clearly called her “Miss Fish”, obviously not the wrong person.
Quick, Rupert… two different last names, is there any connection between them?
Yuyou thought for a moment, and then asked again, “Have you heard of Quick from GK Mall?”
“‘Quake’?” David glanced at her hesitantly. “The Quaker family is an aristocrat of country F, hereditary duke title, and has a history of more than two hundred years. How could you suddenly mention him?”
Country F? Yu You was stunned, and finally figured out the joints.
The identity of the descendant of the royal family that she fabricated before may have been recognized by country F. At present, there are only more than a thousand nobles left in country F, and most of them are left over from the era of Queen Magloire. Of the Queen’s four children, only the missing little prince has no blood left behind.
How do they verify their identity? After hundreds of years, can DNA comparisons be made? Even if she can do it, it can only prove that her bloodline is not pure?
But looking at the current situation, the monarch of country F not only recognized her identity, but also released her photo and related information to internal members, otherwise they would not be able to know her. There is a natural rank gap between the royal family and the aristocracy. Although the monarchy of this era has existed in name only, in country F, these people still enjoy certain privileges. Today, there are only more than a thousand nobles left, and none of them are of the lower class.
Country F and Country Y have always been on good terms, and two-thirds of the nobles of Country F have their own properties in Country Y.
In other words, the current Yuyou can walk sideways in country Y. As long as it is an industry owned by the nobles of country F, she can enjoy the treatment of the upper guest.
“I met Quake at the GK mall yesterday.” Yuyou said with a complicated expression, “I don’t know Quake or Rupert, but I think they may know me.”
The three of them were confused, but Yuyou didn’t want to talk deeply.
After lunch, the waiter sent a few people out of the restaurant and gave each a VIP card.
“K, I really love you! Kaly’s VIP card is very rare and never issued to the public. It is said that their VIP members have the opportunity to have the chef personally serve once a month, and it’s free.” Evely hugged excitedly Live fish.
Yuyou: “…” She couldn’t be proud of something like this kind of generosity.
“K, we’re going to go surfing later, are you coming?” David’s attitude was also much more enthusiastic.
“Sorry, I have something to do this afternoon.” This is not an excuse, she does have other plans.
“That’s a pity, we’ll meet again next time.”
“Okay.”
Saying goodbye to the three, Yuyou asked the bodyguard to take her to the city center.
What she encountered at the GK mall yesterday gave her some ideas. Although she promised Quick that the video would not be released, it did not mean that she could not release other videos.
It is not uncommon for people in country Z to be treated unfairly abroad. She plans to conduct an investigation into all public places such as shopping malls, supermarkets, and duty-free shops. Anyway, there are still a few days before the competition starts. She happens to be fine. By the way, she can see how much advantage she has in her “identity”.
