Chapter 465: The Program Team Digs a Trap

Everyone gathered around the phone, watching Nian Fusheng showing his standard eight-tooth smile even though he was just answering the phone and not facing the customers, and constantly making polite "OK", "Yes", "Then may I ask you...", "Then on our side..." in an official and polite manner. They didn't dare to breathe and silently gave a thumbs up.

This guy is perfect for being a lobby manager.

About five minutes later, Nian Fusheng finally hung up the phone. He turned around and smiled at everyone as usual, "It's like this, the customer..."

Before he could finish his words, the phone rang again.

"Hello, this is Xinfuquan Restaurant." Nian Fusheng turned around smoothly and picked up the microphone.

The fat man bowed to Nian Fusheng with admiration, pointed to the stage in the hall, and signaled everyone to talk there.

"It's amazing that he remembered that this restaurant is called Xinfuquan. I didn't even know it had a name!" Lu Pengyun, the contestant who was praised by Zhao Xiaojing for his strength, whispered after everyone moved away from Nian Fusheng's phone area and dared to speak.

"The name is on the plaque above the gate. It has been oxidized over time and the writing is faint. It's normal that you can't see it." said Mo Feixiang, deputy lobby manager.

"There's a plaque at the door?!" Lu Pengyun was very surprised.

Mo Feixiang: ...

"When the manager comes back later and we finalize the menu, I'll take Brother Lu out to buy groceries. Let's first buy the seasonings and things that need to be prepared in advance, and then buy the other vegetables tomorrow morning so they'll be fresh." Zhao Xiaojing said with a smirk.

Although Nian Fusheng couldn't hear what was said on the other end when he called, he had already carefully asked the adults and children on the other side about their food preferences. With this information, the dishes could be decided.

"No problem, you just need to be responsible for selecting the ingredients, and leave the heavy work to me." Lu Pengyun patted his chest.

While they were discussing, Nian Fusheng smiled again and hung up the phone. Just as he took two steps to come over, the phone rang again, and Nian Fusheng turned back again.

Another five minutes later.

"These are definitely not ordinary guests! They are just Bai Tao's shills!" After hanging up the phone again, Nian Fusheng hurried over with a gleam in his eyes.

"How do you say that?"

"We just put three sets of seats up for grabs, and three people called in to make reservations. How could they be so efficient? And even though I didn't ask, they didn't mention any requirements. But they have hidden special requests. This is clearly a trap!"

"What's the request?" Everyone at the table stared at Nian Fusheng nervously.

"The table with the perfect moon and flowers is for the engagement party. The groom and his mother are allergic to seafood and can't eat any!"

"ah?!"

"Tell me, if I don't ask, won't this turn a happy event into a tragedy? Allergies can be fatal in severe cases! You didn't even mention it, you're not afraid of getting yourself into trouble! Oh, no! This is Bai Tao's agent, he definitely won't get himself into trouble, he'll only get us into trouble! I guess the allergy is just a character setting!"

"Also, that Songhe Changchun, the deputy captain really said it!"

"There are children! Six of them! All six are between six and ten! Bai Tao, why don't you just get one and act like the Calabash Brothers? Luckily, we originally ordered a table mainly for the elderly and children, so the dishes don't need to be changed.

But tell me, who could have imagined this combination? Six children, two elderly people, and four middle-aged people! If you were to prepare a banquet normally, you would definitely only make one or two dishes that the children would like, after all, normally you only have one or two children. If you didn't take this into consideration, and six children were to fight over one or two dishes, how would the whole banquet be able to enjoy the meal?!

"I remember someone asked, 'There can't be ten elderly people, right?' The staff member said something like, 'It's just the configuration for a normal family to go out for dinner. Who would go out for dinner with six children?'"

"No wonder someone asked about the guests' needs and tastes. The production crew had that expression on their faces. It seems they're just waiting to see the show!"

Everyone was still speechless, and Nian Fusheng continued to rant.

"Well, there is another table for those who have passed the imperial examination. Are there any special requirements or configurations?" Zhao Xiaojing took a while to digest it and remembered that there was another set of seats that had not been mentioned.

"Oh, that, it's about inviting friends to celebrate his promotion to higher education, and that one is..." Nian Fusheng suddenly paused and his face changed.

"What's wrong? What did you think of?"

"I subconsciously assumed the caller was an adult, and friends are defined as adults. Now that I think about it, the voice was very young, more like a student's!" Nian Fusheng sat up suddenly. "No, I need to confirm!"

Nian Fusheng hurriedly got up, walked to the front desk, flipped through his phone, and called back.

A moment later, Nian Fusheng came back, sweating profusely. He started complaining before he even sat down. "The production team must have deliberately set up a trap!"

"What's wrong with this table?"

"The person making the call at this table is a junior high student! No, it's a high school student! ... No, it's a junior high school graduate who's about to go on to high school!"

"Ah?" Everyone opened their mouths again.

"Wait a minute!" The fat man frowned in confusion. "What month is it now? It's not even May Day yet. What are you graduating from? What school are you going to go to?"

"Damn, that's true! What kind of major is this? An actor, absolutely an actor!" Mo Feixiang slammed the table.

"That is to say, how can a junior high school student be so rich that he can spend 3888 on a graduation banquet?"

"This doesn't take logic into account at all, it's just a pure show of our IQ."

"Never mind whether it's an act or not, this is his personality. I see through it! Now listen to me." Nian Fusheng wiped the sweat off his face and shook his head. "This is a junior high school graduation banquet! Not for those who got into college, but for those who got into a key high school! We have to make some major changes now. I'm afraid the dishes we originally planned won't work."

"What kind of dishes do junior high school students like to eat? Or should we prepare the same as the children's table?" Lu Pengyun scratched his head anxiously.

"Who would have thought a junior high school would hold a graduation banquet? But getting into a top high school is certainly worth celebrating... Well, let's not talk about that, that's not the point. Who knows what junior high students like to eat?"

"fried chicken?"

“And fries!”

"well!"

“…”

"Okay, okay, at least now we know what Bai Tao is up to. Although the three groups have their own pitfalls, we have all found them, right? Don't panic, let's follow our old method and discuss and solve them one by one!" The fat man looked at the people at the table who sighed and suddenly fell silent, and hurried out to take charge of the situation.

"All three tables need to be adjusted, and the dishes ordered for two tables need to be overhauled. Who knows if the production team has any other tricks up their sleeve? If they still have to prepare three tables, what a waste of time, and they won't even get as high a score as someone preparing one table?"
