Steve nodded and hurriedly said, “Hello, Mr. Chen! Nice to meet you!”
Issac also said very politely: “Same.”
Charlie then said to Orvel and Issac: “Orvel, Issac, this is the current heir to the head of the famous Rothschild family, Mr. Steve Rothschild.
There is an introduction about him in the encyclopedia. If you know him, you can look for him and see him there.”
Both were very polite and said it was a pleasure to meet him.
Although both of them are Charlie’s subordinates, and Orvel seems to be the owner of the restaurant,
Steve did not dare to show off at all, and said humbly:
“It is my honor to meet you both.
You two will come to the United States. Be sure to contact me and give me a chance to do my part as a landlord.”
Charlie smiled and said: “Steve is indeed friendly and welcoming.
I should drink some later.”
After that, he said to Orvel: “Orvel, let the waiter serve cold dishes and liquor first, and we can chat while drinking.”
“Okay Mr. Wade!” Orvel hurriedly prepared the dishes, and the chef who had already prepared the dishes immediately asked the waiter to bring the prepared cold dishes one by one.
Before Steve recovered, nine waiters came one after another and brought eight cold dishes and a five-pound bottle of vintage Jin Jue Moutai.
Just when Steve looked at the big white wine bottle with a surprised expression,
the waiter had filled the wine dispenser in front of him, and then poured him another glass of wine.
After the waiter left, Charlie picked up the wine glass and said with a smile: “Come on, Steve, welcome to China.
According to our rules, let’s have three drinks together first.”
Steve smelled the strong smell of white wine and exclaimed: “This…the alcohol content is not low, right?”
Orvel smiled and said: “The height is fifty-three percent, collect Maotai seriously.”
“Fifty-three percent?…” Steve was shocked and exclaimed: “You don’t need to do anything, why don’t you just drink three glasses first?!”
Charlie smiled and said: “Guests are welcome to host. Don’t think I’m deliberately oppressing you.
This is the rule here. At the start of the meal, everyone should drink three glasses together.”
Charlie really didn’t lie to Steve.
Three-drink openings are almost the rule in wine shops in most Chinese cities.
However, depending on the average amount of alcohol in the region, the alcohol content, and size of the wine glass will differ.
If you have a strong alcohol capacity, three glasses of high-strength white wine and at least one or two glasses of liquor as a base;
For those with a low alcohol content, three glasses of regular beer, each at least 150 ml.
