They've done this countless times before, eating at state-run restaurants for free.
As a result, they were blacklisted by the restaurant, which refused to sell them anything.
Lin Yueru: "Just tell me how much money you'd need to do this!"
The man held out his hand, "Give us 50 yuan!"
Lin Yueru exclaimed in surprise, "Why do you need so much?"
The man pointed to the people behind him, "Don't you know how many brothers I support? You think you can just give me 3 or 5 yuan to get rid of them? They won't do it!" He stretched out his hand, "Or you can entertain us a little, that would be enough to make up for it!"
Lin Yueru was so frightened that she quickly took out her money. "Then it's settled. I'll pay you to do the job, but you can't mess up the handsome guy!"
When the man saw that the woman had actually taken out the money, he realized he hadn't asked for enough. He wanted to go back on his word but was afraid she would make a scene, so he accepted the money.
"Just tell us the address."
Lin Yueru: "It's the new dumpling restaurant on Huanan Road. You can ask around and you'll find out. They're opening tomorrow."
The man nodded to indicate that he understood, and then, seeing the woman keep backing away, he realized he had no intention of flirting with her. Instead, he returned to his original spot and sat down to play cards.
Lin Yueru breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that no one was coming, so she turned around and left. She figured that if she gave them the money, they would do their job.
I'm so excited about opening tomorrow! Just thinking about all the customers running away from the store makes me so excited!

The next morning.
Lu Zhixia first sent a group of children to school, and then returned to the store to get busy. Today was the opening day.
So there's still a lot to do, and we need to get started soon.
Su Lan picked up the cleaver and started chopping the meat, the banging sound never stopping.
Then, bowl after bowl of dumpling filling was prepared.
Lu Zhixia felt that the preparations were almost complete, so she went out and asked them to hang up the firecrackers, and then they could open for business.
A large crowd had already gathered at the entrance. It had been advertised beforehand that the more dumplings you bought today, the more freebies you would receive.
Buy one jin and get one liang free; buy ten jin and get one jin free.
Gu Lingxiao quickly hung up the firecrackers. Seeing that it was almost time, he waved to the people around him, lit the firecrackers, and then quickly retreated.
Soon, firecrackers went off in a crackling sound, signaling the restaurant's opening.
After the firecrackers stopped going off, people came in from outside, mostly neighbors who came to try it out.
Soon, more and more people were ordering dumplings, and the room was almost full.
Lu Zhixia was overjoyed to see all this; she was finally able to make a return on her investment.
Just then, a few people with unfriendly eyes came in and glanced at the table next to them.
The man, frightened, immediately moved his plate to another table, and then the others sat down in a very ungraceful manner.
What would you like to eat?
The man looked at the woman walking towards him and asked, "Are you the owner of this shop?"
Lu Zhixia: "Yes! What's the matter?"
The man looked at the menu on the wall and said, "Give me two pounds of each kind of dumpling!"
Lu Zhixia said, "There are only four of you, you can't possibly eat that much!"
The man slammed his hand on the table. "What? I paid money and I can't even get dumplings?"
Lu Zhixia could tell this person was there to cause trouble, and nearby customers also looked over.
"Okay, I'll do it for you!"
The man took out a cigarette case from his pocket, and just as he pulled one out, he sensed a murderous aura as he looked up.
He looked towards the door and met the man's gaze.
Wow, this guy looks amazing. He almost stood up and walked out.
Fortunately, with his brother's help, he quickly recovered.
Subconsciously, they reached into their pockets. They had prepared dead cockroaches in advance, intending to take them out when they had almost finished eating the dumplings.
As for the rat not being prepared, no one would believe it even if it were brought out.
Cockroaches are quite common here, and it would be extremely disgusting to find one in your food.
Watching that person slowly walk to the counter and talk to the female boss, my heart started pounding.
He felt that he should either not do it or not!
But then I thought, if I take their money and don't do anything, how am I supposed to live my life afterward?
Lu Zhixia whispered to Gu Lingxiao, "I think there's something wrong with the people at that table by the door."
Gu Lingxiao nodded to indicate that he understood, "Ma Chao and the others will be here in a while. If these guys want to cause trouble, they'd better wait and see!"
Lu Zhixia immediately felt much more at ease. Seeing a customer waving, she quickly went over to settle the bill.
The man started praising, "Your dumplings are delicious, with big wrappers and lots of filling. They're so juicy with every bite! I'll definitely come back to treat myself next time!"
