Chapter 76: Don’t suffer any loss
The three shopkeepers talked for a long time and cursed for a long time, but in the end no one admitted the matter.
Wu Jiantong's waiters were still waiting for the dishes, so they didn't stay here for long and just went back in a hurry.
Before leaving, he was still muttering that if anyone had sent people out, they should be called back as soon as possible to avoid making life difficult for everyone.
After the three of them had dispersed, they each returned to their respective restaurants.
Ming Yuxuan's shopkeeper Song had a gloomy face. He went to the backyard and called a trusted waiter over. "Go find someone on the street and ask him to call back Liu Wuwan who is in Huibin Building."
"Boss, are we just going to let this matter go?" The waiter curled his lips.
"What else can we do?" Shopkeeper Song looked unhappy. "Mr. Zhao and Mr. Qian have already said so much, and Mr. Wu is in such a bad mood. If they continue to cause trouble at Huibinlou, we can't do business with him anymore."
Manager Song felt that it was not worth it to kill one thousand enemies but lose eight hundred of his own.
What's more, it is never too late for a gentleman to take revenge.
If Huibin Building continues to be open in the future, there will be plenty of opportunities to take it down, so there is no need to rush at this moment.
But now Jun came again and Fuyunlou stood on the same side with him to deal with Huibinlou. It would be bad if they angered those two families because of this incident and pushed them to Huibinlou.
Shopkeeper Song knew what was important and didn't mind lowering his head at this moment.
When the waiter heard what Manager Song said, he agreed and walked towards the backyard door.
He took two steps and turned back, "Boss, do you want the money you gave to Liu Wuwan back?"
"Do you need me to teach you how to do this?" Shopkeeper Song glared at the waiter.
This matter was originally a shameful one. Just give the other party some money and have them do the job, and then the matter is settled. Both parties are satisfied and will not ask for further accounts from each other.
It was just a few taels of silver, so he didn't take it seriously.
The waiter nodded repeatedly, then hurriedly slipped out through the small door in the backyard, found a reliable person on the street, gave him a small string of money, and asked him to call Liu Wuwan back.
The man got the money and ran to the reception hall with a happy smile on his face.
When he arrived at the Huibin Building, he found out that Liu Wuwan was in the box and whispered something to him.
When Liu Wuwan heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up.
Relieved! "Have you said it for sure? This Mapo tofu really doesn't need to be changed into home-cooked tofu, shrimp tofu, preserved egg tofu, braised tofu, etc.?" Su Yujin was still smiling at this time, patiently explaining various types of tofu to Liu Wuwan.
"No need, no need." Liu Wuwan waved his hands repeatedly, "I don't want the 300 dishes of Mapo Tofu from before! Just count the silver for the appetizers we just had, and I'll pay!"
This is a place of tigers and wolves, he can't afford to offend them, he has to leave quickly! "It's two hundred coins in total." Su Yujin said with a smile, "But you said you wanted three hundred dishes before, but now you don't want it anymore, is it because you are not confident about the taste of this mapo tofu?"
"You didn't eat much of these appetizers, so I guess the taste wasn't very good. Since you're here, there's no point in just eating appetizers. I'll ask the kitchen to make a dish of Mapo Tofu so you can take it away."
Liu Wuwan, "..."
He refused! He didn't want to hear the word tofu anymore!
Liu Wuwan quickly left the Huibin Building.
Looks like running for one's life.
"Goodbye, welcome back next time, and have some more Mapo Tofu." Su Yujin bowed slightly and said with a smile.
Liu Wuwan staggered while running.
Wu Jiantong came back soon.
"What's the matter?" Su Yujin asked.
"I led people to watch for a long time, and only the shopkeeper of Mingyuxuan sent a waiter out. The waiter hired someone on the street, and the hired person came directly to our guest house."
Wu Jiantong said, "Just now the waiter said that after Liu Wuwan left our Huibin Building, he went to look for Ming Yuxuan's waiter. This matter is probably not a bad one, and it was done by Ming Yuxuan's surname Song."
"This Manager Song is the oldest among the managers of the several restaurants. I thought he was the most stable and shrewd one, but I never expected that he is the dumbest one."
Su Yujin was a little disdainful. "Tell the waiter to make three servings of Mapo Tofu and send them to Mingyuexuan. Tell them that since Shopkeeper Song likes Mapo Tofu the most, then he should have a taste of it."
"Yes, I'll go right away." Wu Jiantong responded.
"By the way." Su Yujin added, "Remember to get the money back for the Mapo Tofu."
Wu Jiantong, "..."
Our boss really can't afford to suffer any loss.
But whether it is revenge or not, people are afraid of tigers because they have sharp teeth and claws. Similarly, people praise rabbits for being white and cute and like them very much, but when it comes to spreading cumin, they are ruthless.
Therefore, there is nothing wrong with the boss's approach!
When Wu Jiantong first came to Huibinlou, one reason was that he could return home and reunite with his wife and children without being separated, and he could take care of any problems at home; the other reason was to do so for the sake of Madam Zhou and because Su Yujin had delegated a lot of power to him.
Now it seems that I really followed the right boss!
He is lenient and trustful to his subordinates, and does not hesitate to reward them when they should, but is also ruthless when it comes to punishing them. Now, when dealing with competitors, he does not hesitate for a moment.
This is much better than Mrs. Zhou, who is friendly but lacks in tough tactics.
Of course, Madam Zhou is also very good. After all, she is in the Zhou family. Under such circumstances, she has many concerns. It is extremely difficult for her to achieve this...
After receiving Su Yujin's instructions, Wu Jiantong hurriedly told his men to do this.
The two waiters quickly delivered the three servings of Mapo Tofu to Ming Yuxuan.
"The owner of our guest house asked us to send three servings of Mapo Tofu to Shopkeeper Song, saying that since Shopkeeper Song likes it, we should let him have a good taste."
The waiter had a very loud voice and it was noon when the shop was crowded, so naturally he attracted many people's attention.
Sweat dripped down Manager Song's forehead.
Embarrassed, regretful, and angry.
But his words were friendly, "Shopkeeper Wu is really polite. This Mapo Tofu is the signature dish of Huibinlou and it sells very well. In line with the principle of learning from the masters, I also want to try it, but I am in the same industry and it is inconvenient for me to go over. Shopkeeper Wu is thoughtful and has sent it over right away. Please go back and tell Shopkeeper Wu that I thank you and I will definitely invite Shopkeeper Wu out for a drink some other day."
Shopkeeper Song said some polite words and quickly told the waiter next to him to take the dishes.
Seeing that the two waiters had not left after delivering the dishes, Shopkeeper Song became a little worried, "I wonder what else the young man wants?"
I hope I didn't say something I shouldn't say...
Ah, at this critical moment when the epidemic is so serious, I caught a cold, had a low-grade fever, felt pain all over my body, and my head was as big as a bucket...
