Another customer also said in a bad tone: "Not only are there fewer varieties, the taste is not as good as before. Try it yourself. Does this apple taste like apple? It tastes like medicine when you put it in your mouth. How long has it been soaked in medicine? Who knows if eating too much of this thing will shorten your life!"
Upon hearing this, the restaurant manager bowed and apologized, "I'm really sorry, everyone. The fresh vegetables in the restaurant are all provided by Zhou's. The quality is fine. And the supplier we previously cooperated with is no longer accepting orders. Please bear with me."
The customer who was speaking just now frowned when he heard this and said, "Zhou's? No wonder. Their indoor cultivation has been using the most advanced technology to increase production. It is said that they also use a lot of growth enhancers and other drugs to increase production. The taste is really bad. You can taste the difference as soon as you taste it."
Another customer nodded in agreement, "My family used to eat organic vegetables before the disaster. We never touch these high-tech agricultural products. Do you know that these things may cause cancer if eaten? For a hotel as big as yours, can't you even get pure, natural organic vegetables that meet EU standards?"
The restaurant manager was overwhelmed when he heard this. It was a disaster year, and the fields had no harvest. It was rare to grow water vegetables indoors. Where could he find pure, natural organic vegetables that met EU standards? Are these rich people mentally ill? Do they really think money is everything?
But he did not dare to show any dissatisfaction in front of these distinguished guests, and could only keep bowing and apologizing: "I am really sorry, right now Zhou's Enterprise is the only one in the city that can stably supply agricultural products in large quantities. Our previous aquatic vegetables were all ordered from Taoyuan Store, but now that store is temporarily unable to order goods. But don't worry, we will try our best to find a cooperative enterprise, and thank you for your patience during this period."
Xia Shige listened quietly at the side, thinking silently in her mind that she had been obsessed with mining during this period and had not paid much attention to the Taoyuan shop.
After all, compared to farming and selling vegetables, mining can bring much greater returns. Think about how she used to work hard every day to farm, pick, and slaughter chickens, ducks, and rabbits in order to make 100 million yuan. Now that she has a mine, she can easily earn 100 million yuan by selling a pink diamond.
However, the apple trees in the Taoyuan forest have recently had a good harvest, and she plans to work hard to run the store in the next few days.
Xia Shige was thinking when he suddenly heard a familiar voice behind him:
"Xia Shige!"
Xia Shige raised his head and looked at Shen Zehuai and Qian Qianqian.
Shen Zehuai walked forward and said to Xia Shige with a smile: "It's really you. I didn't expect you to come to Yunjiang Hotel. This is such a coincidence. By the way, where are you staying? Do you want me to upgrade your room?"
Xia Shige smiled and replied, "No need. I live on the 36th floor, room 02. My family and I think the conditions are pretty good."
Chen Zehuai was a little surprised when he heard her say that. He didn't expect Xia Shige to have the money to book a luxury room. He remembered that the 36th floor cost 500,000 per night. He got to know this classmate a little better.
Qianqian, who was standing aside, had been standing silently behind Shen Zehuai. She held her belly and lowered her head, but her eyes kept glancing at Xia Shige from time to time, with jealousy and unspeakable panic emerging in her heart that was difficult to conceal.
I didn't expect to meet Xia Shige here again. It was like a narrow road for enemies. But every time Chen Zehuai saw Xia Shige, he would happily move closer, making it impossible for Qianqian to hide.
She has been pregnant for almost nine months and had been staying in the villa to prepare for the birth of her baby. She didn't expect to be so unlucky. Today, a forest fire broke out in the mountain behind the villa area.
The weather is dry now, and the fire department is also short of water. In addition, the weather is hot and dry, and dead branches are piled up in the woods. The wildfire spreads quickly and cannot be extinguished for a while. She can only move out of the Du community with Shen Zehuai and come to Yunjiang Hotel.
The Yunjiang Hotel is equipped with an independent medical institution, so if Qianqian Qi unexpectedly gives birth prematurely, she can be sent to the hospital in time.
Xia Shige also glanced at Qianqian. She was wearing a silky champagne-colored dress with her long black hair casually spread out. Although she was pregnant, she still had light makeup on her face. At this moment, she lowered her head, looking even more pitiful.
Compared with the embarrassed posture of Han Yu'an's mother seen a few days ago, it can be seen that Qianqian is now living a pampered life.
Qianqian secretly raised her eyes to look at Xia Shige, and when she met Xia Shige's gaze, she was startled and then looked away in panic.
Xia Shige noticed that Qianqian was feeling uncomfortable, so he exchanged a few pleasantries with Shen Zehuai before leaving.
Xia Shige brought two plates of dessert to the Xia family's table and ate with his family, all of them very satisfied.
Xia Shige couldn't tell any difference between the pure natural organic vegetables that met EU standards and ordinary vegetables. She just felt that the chefs in the star-rated hotel were of very high standard. The dishes were very well cooked, with just the right amount of saltiness and taste. Even her grandmother drank two extra bowls of soup.
After the family had eaten and drunk their fill, they walked towards their room chatting and prepared to rest.
While waiting for the elevator, Xia Shige suddenly heard someone shouting from behind:
"mom!?"
The Xia family members looked up in confusion, and saw a middle-aged man in a waiter's uniform. He was wearing blue rubber gloves and holding a red plastic bucket in his hands. He was looking straight in the direction of the Xia family.
Grandma Liu's expression changed suddenly. She recognized the man as her stupid son, Sheng Ruigang.
Sheng Ruigang was working as a manager in a media company before the natural disaster. Until a few months ago, the company went bankrupt due to the high temperature, and he suddenly became an unemployed vagrant.
Later, he used his connections to find his current job as an ordinary waiter in the buffet restaurant of Yunjiang Hotel.
