Night fell,

Waves of heat emanated from the fluffy charcoal fire.

The tender meat skewers trembled gently on top, beginning to release an enticing aroma.

Wu Gaojie and Brother Tiechui were seriously discussing matters related to protecting their rights when they smelled the fragrance and were so attracted that they forgot what they were going to say.

"Wow! It smells so good!" Brother Iron Hammer took a deep breath of the air.

"It smells just like the Zibo barbecue I used to eat back home! At first, I didn't have high hopes for this kind of roadside stall when you ordered it, but now I'm starting to look forward to the taste of this barbecue."

"Where is your hometown, brother?"

"Hehe, I'm from the East, and I came to your Purple City to make a living. Sigh, I never expected that people in such a big city would be so cunning!"

"Come on, everyone, make way, be careful it's hot."

Qin Yi placed a small stove filled with charcoal on their table.

Then place the meat skewers on the grill, and set out the small pancakes, scallions, and dipping sauces on the table.

"Zibo BBQ three-piece set, so delicious that it makes your mouth water and keeps you up at night. All the meat is cooked to medium-rare, so you can judge the temperature yourself."

Looking at the various seasonings and scallion pancakes laid out on the table, Wu Gaojie asked Brother Tiechui with great joy, "Brother, how do you make the Zibo barbecue 'One Line Sky' dish that's mentioned online? Can you make one for us?"

Brother Iron Hammer first picked up the skewers and kept flipping them over to cook the meat.

In the charcoal fire, every drop of oil sizzles in the flames, and the aroma of roasted meat fills the air.

Brother Hammer picked up a small round pancake, folded it in half, then in half again, and pointed to the side with two creases in the middle.

"Use the side with the two edges to dip in the sauce, first wet then dry."

The older brother's movements were very skillful. He first dipped his finger in the wet garlic chili sauce, then in various barbecue seasonings, and finally stuck it with crushed peanuts from the dry dipping sauce.

Next, open the small round cake; there is a line of evenly distributed dipping sauce on it.

"Place the meat skewers on this pancake. It's more satisfying to wrap two skewers of meat in it. Like me, just pull the skewer stick off the pancake, and all the meat will stay in the pancake. Then add a scallion, fold it in, and finally roll up the pancake, stuff it into your mouth, and you can eat it."

After giving his demonstration, Brother Iron Hammer took the first bite.

"How does it taste?"

The onlookers were also tempted by the man's actions, and for a moment they forgot about their rights and watched with longing as he ate his barbecue.

Brother Iron Hammer closed his eyes and slowly savored the moment.

The long-lost taste of his hometown slowly flowed from the tip of his tongue.

It warmed his entire being.

Delicious food seems to have a natural healing power.

All your worries vanish in the face of this skewer of grilled meat.

Yes, life is only 30,000 days long, so do whatever makes you happy. Why not face these little surprises in life with a smile?

He opened his eyes and saw everyone surrounding him, so he couldn't help but burst into laughter.

"Why are you all staring at me like that? Let me tell you, go buy it right now, it's incredibly delicious! After eating this, my irritable heart is about to have an epiphany. I never imagined that food could be so powerful."

After hearing what Brother Iron Hammer said, everyone swarmed to the blind box spinning wheel, but they were also a little troubled when they saw this novel way of ordering.

"I just want to eat Zibo barbecue, what if I can't get it through the transfer?"

Just then, Qin Yi brought the Shaotong skewers to Wu Gaojie and his group's table.

Wu Gaojie picked up some meat skewers and distributed them to the group members who were waiting nearby.

"You guys should try these Shao Dong skewers."

Everyone accepted the roasted meat offered by Wu Gaojie.

Put it to your mouth and slurp it down from right to left in one go, finishing a whole skewer in one go.

"Wow, it's so flavorful! This little skewer not only has the aroma of the braising sauce, but also the rich fragrance of barbecue."

Those who had eaten it nodded repeatedly, their eyes fixed on the roasted meat on Wu Gaojie's table, their eyes filled with a longing to eat more.

Wu Gaojie quickly stood in front of the table to block the wolf-like gazes of the group.

Pointing to the blind box spinning wheel, he said, "Brothers! I don't even have enough for myself. If you want some, go spin it yourselves. The boss's skills are top-notch. I guarantee every flavor will be so delicious you'll drool. Just spin it, don't worry!"

After listening to the group members' introduction, everyone stopped hesitating and lined up to scan the code and pay one after another.

Qin Yi listened intently to the pleasant sound of money being transferred, silently praying, "Please hurry up and transfer a hidden blind box for me!"

However, after all the diners paid, they still hadn't received the purple card.

Qin Yi had no choice but to resign herself to her fate and roll up her sleeves to work harder.

"Young man, you said before that we could file a complaint on WeChat, right? Teach us how to do it."

Wu Gaojie and Brother Tiechui discussed how to file a complaint while eating skewers.

At that moment, a woman dressed in a business suit appeared.

She stood behind the barbecue stall owner, holding the hand of a little girl with a schoolbag on her back.

Ma Xiaomei arrived at the Vansi Hair Salon according to the address on her phone, and was just about to greet Qin Yi.

Then I heard Qin Yi's customers discussing things like protecting their rights and filing complaints.

Out of professional sensitivity, she stood still and listened quietly for a while to the conversation among the guests.

"This complaint and filling out forms is completely useless. I've complained before, and someone just came to mediate, but the merchant refused to refund, and that was the end of it. I still haven't gotten my money back. If you ask me, we should just smash down the door, go in, and take everything out of the store. We can recover as much of the loss as possible!"

"Huh? So the complaint process doesn't work, buddy? Wouldn't it be more practical to move some things?" Brother Hammer asked, also puzzled by this suggestion.

“It’s definitely wrong to go into the store and move things. It could be considered theft because many businesses sell their equipment at low prices after they go out of business. In that case, you’ll not only have financial disputes with the original owner, but you’ll also be suspected of illegal activities. If you want to move things, you must get the owner’s permission,” Ma Xiaomei said with a frown.

"If this isn't allowed, and that isn't allowed, are we just going to let these people get away with it?"

"Generally, it is recommended to first file a complaint with the consumer protection department or the labor and social security department for mediation. If mediation fails, then you can report the incident to the police and file a lawsuit. For small economic disputes, you can file a case yourself on the Fayuan Online Service Mini Program. The litigation fee is 50 yuan for amounts under 10,000 yuan, but you need to write the complaint yourself. There are templates available online, so just follow them. The most important thing is to keep all recharge receipts and transfer records."

"How do you know so much about rights protection?" someone in the crowd asked.

"Oh, I happen to be a lawyer, so I naturally know a bit more about this." Ma Xiaomei took out a few business cards from her suit pocket and handed them to the people around her.

"He really is a lawyer! No wonder he knows so much!" Wu Gaojie exclaimed, looking at the business card.

Qin Yi was focused on grilling skewers when she heard a commotion behind her and realized that Ma Xiaomei and her daughter had arrived.
