When Henry said he wanted to spend money, he really started throwing money away as if it was water.
They went to the best hotel in Suesville’s city center and asked the head chef to cook for them. There was a lot of food on the table and all of it was extremely expensive. The three of them could not eat everything but they still ordered a table full of food. Just the wild yellow-fin tuna from the East Sea was 2000 bucks each. However, this was the most low-profile item on the table. There was also a lobster that was half a meter in length, the lobster was so large it had to be carried to the table by three male servers. That one dish was 60 thousand bucks.
Then, they ordered some soup for each of them that cost 888 bucks each. Basically, it was just cabbage soup. However, the ingredients used to make the soup were decadent. There were abalone, conpoy, sea cucumber, three years old ham, the diaphragm of free range three years old ducks, and the diaphragm of a wild boar inside. These rare items represented just the ingredients used for the consommés of the small cabbage.
After the consommés were out, the ingredients would be thrown away, and in the end, they would be concentrated into these three bowls of soup. Just one sip would cost at least 200 bucks.
The three of them could not eat too much. Even if Julian was someone who was trained to fight and thus had a larger appetite, the group still left half of the food uneaten.
Henry did not care. He paid the bill of 160 thousand bucks and asked the staff of the restaurant to take care of what was left so that there would not be any wastage. The staff’s eyes lit up as the manager sent Henry away enthusiastically. After that, they sauntered to the best nightclub in Suesville.
In this time and age, the nightclubs were not as good as the ones in the future. A lot of discos and dancehalls would call themselves nightclubs. Even though they were not wrong, it still lowered their statuses. This nightclub in Suesville was truly very lively.
The boss seemed to have surveyed the market before. Therefore, the location, the decoration, and the atmosphere were not inferior to the ones in Harbor City or Waterhoof City.
Henry booked a booth that required a minimum spend of 88888 bucks. At this point in time, there was still no fancy liquor that would go viral, like Ace of Spades. The nightclubs still had their conscience, so they would not sell Ace of Spades like they were treasures just because some rich second-generation hiked up the price.
The alcohol that was available here was all good alcohol. For example Louis XIII, Martell XO, and Royal Knight. There was none of those fake alcohols that was mixed with low-quality foreign alcohol that the artisan workshops sold for more than ten bucks. These were all authentic.
Aside from that, Henry covered an entire table with the most expensive cocktail in the nightclub. It was named Alluring Fox and was sold for 666 bucks per glass. The whole table looked extremely colorful.
From the looks of this, Henry was the most dazzling guy in the room.
From ancient times to the present, regardless of where in the world you were, there was always only one universal truth. If you had money, you would be the boss.
Jasper’s booth was immediately surrounded by a lot of girls in tight skirts.
Even though it was 2001 and not 2020 where people were more unrestrained, the essence of the young ladies’ pursuit of true love remained the same. All of them were very hot and behaved unrestrained as they hugged Henry and laughed with him. This made Henry very happy.
Jasper did not have girls in his arms like Henry. Instead, he sat with Julian at one side while drinking some delicious cocktail and eating the fruit platter. He chatted happily with Julian.
A few of the girls came to flirt with them, but Jasper would not reject them, He would still entertain them. However, everyone could tell Henry was the one paying, so after they noticed that Jasper was not that rich, they started to treat Henry like the love of their lives as they flocked over to him.
