Chapter 41 Competition
"She is sick and didn't come. Sir, how many wraps would you like?" a short and fat lady urged.
Chen Wu was puzzled. Even if Miss Ji hadn't come, what about the other two? Could they both be sick?
Feeling a little strange, and the taste in front of him was not appealing, he only bought a vegetable wrap. The more he looked at the wrapper, the more he felt something was wrong. The wrapper was too thick, not at all as thin and crispy as the one made by Miss Ji.
After taking a bite, the thick crust in his mouth made him very disappointed with the wrap. The taste was also not so good. The vegetables inside had no taste, and the soup was watery and ordinary. It was not as amazing as he had tasted it at that time.
All I can say is that this is very ordinary food, and he has no intention of becoming a returning customer.
I originally wanted to buy more to satisfy my craving, but when I put it in my mouth, it turned out to be just an ordinary burrito.
He sighed, wondering if he was destined to never eat delicious burritos again?
Who knew that when he looked up, he saw Miss Ji standing aside pushing a car.
Chen Wu's eyes flashed green as he rushed to Ji Zhisui's stall. "Young lady, why are you here?"
"Brother Chen, what happened?" Ji Zhisui immediately caught the loophole in this sentence. Why couldn't he come?
"Didn't your family buy the burritos over there? They said you wouldn't be coming today, so they asked us to buy the burritos he made..." As Chen Wu spoke, he realized something was wrong.
It was obvious that Miss Ji was unaware of the situation, and the wrap in her hand was so unpalatable!
He instantly realized that he had been cheated. Those were not Miss Ji's family at all. Instead, they were selling burritos under her name, and the burritos they sold were such unpalatable ones.
Chen Wu repeatedly consoled her, "Don't worry, Miss Ji. The rolls that person makes are terrible. The crust is thick and the vegetables are tasteless. They're not even one ten-thousandth as good as yours."
The more Chen Wu spoke, the quieter his voice became. "Oh no! They're just ruining Miss Ji's reputation!"
Ji Zhisui and others also sensed something from these words. Pei Ersao had a bad temper and rolled up her sleeves, ready to pick a fight.
Taking up space is nothing, copying the burritos is fine, but what's even worse is pretending that it was made by Sui Niang, not only stealing their business but also stepping on Sui Niang and ruining the reputation of their burritos.
This is intolerable! She must go and ask for an explanation today.
This time, Ji Zhisui's face was not happy. Taking up a seat and making burritos were all fair competition. She had no objection.
The location is not his own, and the burritos are not his original creation, but selling things under his own name is a fraud, which is too much!
"Second sister-in-law, you take care of the stall first." After saying that, Ji Zhisui went to another burrito stall alone. Pei Yian followed him out of concern.
"I don't know when I had so many relatives." Ji Zhisui's voice was crisp but sarcastic, attracting everyone's attention.
Some people in the queue knew her, and they greeted her cheerfully, "Young lady, are you feeling well? Didn't you say you wouldn't come today?"
"I'm in good health, but I don't know where a few family members came from and labeled me as having poor health." Ji Zhisui's eyes fell directly on the people in front who were buying wraps.
She was a short and fat lady, accompanied by a younger man and woman.
Seeing this, the young men and women avoided her gaze, lowered their heads and pretended to be busy. When the short and fat lady saw Ji Zhisui, her face showed displeasure. This man must be jealous of her and wanted to steal her business.
"I was just joking, little girl. I see you're not a stingy person, so you shouldn't mind, right?"
Ji Zhisui sneered, is he planning to invite moral blackmail in public?
Some people would have to swallow their anger for the sake of face, but she wasn't like that. "Why can't I be angry? I'm fine, but you cursed me behind my back, pretended to be my family, and snatched away my diners. How shameless do you have?"
"You little girl, how come you don't know how to respect the elderly and love the young!" The short and fat lady pointed at Ji Zhisui's nose and began to preach.
"You don't know how to love the young, so why should I respect the elderly?"
"You...you uneducated little bitch! What's wrong with me doing business here? What can you do to me? Besides, your name is not written on this place. It's a good thing that I don't have an uneducated daughter like you." The old lady was so angry that her words became more and more unpleasant.
Pei Yian protected Ji Zhisui behind him and looked at the old lady with an extremely cold gaze, "You speak so harshly, aren't you afraid of your tongue rotting off?"
Being looked at like this, the short and fat lady felt a little guilty.
"I hope everyone here today will bear witness that this burrito shop has nothing to do with my family. We are strangers to each other. Please don't make the mistake when buying burritos."
Everyone also understood what was going on. This person was simply pretending to be Miss Ji's family member and selling them spring rolls. No wonder they felt that the spring rolls didn't seem as delicious as before.
After the matter was clarified, Ji Zhisui and Pei Yian returned to their seats. Most of the diners were impressed by Ji Zhisui's cooking skills and followed him out.
There were also some new diners who didn't know what was going on, and followed the crowd to Ji Zhisui's stall.
The short and fat lady looked at the place where there were originally many people, which suddenly became empty. That was all money!
In just one morning, she made as much money as it used to take her more than ten days to earn from setting up a stall by leveraging Ji Zhisui's reputation. Now, as she watched her own customers run away, Ji Zhisui's business was as booming as ever.
She gritted her teeth and said, no, she must find a way to retain the diners.
Her cloudy, upward-slanting eyes rolled around, and then she put her hands on her hips and shouted, "Boiled pancakes, boiled pancakes, delicious boiled pancakes! Delicious and inexpensive! Vegetarian ones are one cent, meat ones are two cents, come and buy some!"
Among the diners taken away by Ji Zhisui, many were eager to try the wraps. Some of them were new and had never eaten the wraps made by Ji Zhisui, while some thought that since they were all wraps, they should taste similar.
You can buy a meat burrito over there for the price of a vegetarian burrito here. For two cents, you can get meat and vegetables, which makes many people tempted.
They are not a wealthy family, and they have worked hard to earn their money. Now they can buy food at a cheaper price, how can they not be tempted!
I don’t know who turned around first, but after one, two people turned around, and many people returned to the stall of the short and fat lady.
Pei Ersao had never seen such shameless people. They were definitely doing it on purpose. They took up seats, made rolls, pretended to be her mother-in-law's family, and now they were lowering the price to attract diners. It was obvious that they were just trying to make things difficult for them.
"Shameless girl, I'm going to knock her down today and teach her a lesson!"
Ji Zhisui quickly grabbed his second sister-in-law and said, "Second sister-in-law, if we do anything, we will definitely have to pay compensation."
Pei Ersao was awakened by these words, but she was really depressed and couldn't swallow this!
