Chapter 149 Anyway, I won't suffer a loss.



Honestly, it's really impressive that Director Wang was able to find such a hotel; those two rooms were probably vacated on the spot.

When Shen Qianqian and the other person came out of the room, their faces were dark.

Once all eight guests arrived, Director Wang, who does absolutely nothing, reappeared. His first act was to hand over all cash and cell phones, and then he gave each person a watch phone.

Comments: [Director Wang really went too far this episode. He stole the guests' luggage and hasn't even returned it. Looks like he's not planning to.]

[They should have put their phones and wallets away at the airport, otherwise you'd see them struggling to walk back to their hotels.]

Believe it or not, as long as Li Ruan is around, she's not going to obediently walk back to the hotel!

[That's right. It felt like at the airport earlier, Director Wang wanted to make everyone penniless so he could see them scrambling to get money back to the hotel. Unfortunately, with someone as eccentric as Li Ruan around, his plan failed.]

[Director Wang: Plan? What plan? It doesn't exist! My show doesn't have a script! Because the scripts were all shredded by Pear Soft!]

Director Wang, who also saw the comment, wrote: "My heart is aching, but I won't say it. Because saying it would only bring tears!"

After collecting the phones, Director Wang generously treated the guests to lunch.

Fan Mingye strongly agreed with that statement. Although I ordered a little less food, it was for the whole family to eat together. Why should I earn so little money?

Slowly, everyone in the family learned Kong Wei's method of accounting.

Yan Qianbin also only ordered a cold stir-fry dish.

Director Wang glanced at Li Ruan with disdain. She really knew her stuff. Coming to a place like that just to eat something bad, she ordered cucumber and tofu skin. How low-class.

After watching the play, Fan Shiye picked up the menu and handed it to Director Wang: "Oh no, hurry up and order! You must be starving. Do you mean you want some seafood for Li Ruan?"

It wasn't as soft as a pear, and it didn't have any of the feeling I expected.

Li Ruan: How can that be the same? You tricked Kong Wei, and the food was wasted, and Kong Wei was tricked by you willingly.

Yan Qianbin was also polite and ordered seven dishes.

Yan Qian's lips twitched. That bitch, can you even speak?

The room fee at SoHo was 400 yuan, and the cost of food was 428 yuan.

"He's an artist now, and even if he earns 208 yuan a day, it's still harder for him to make money than working as a janitor. He only ordered cucumber and tofu skin? Besides, he's the one paying for it!"

Li Ruan was giving you a chance to smear him, and she spoke with a smile the whole time, "He has eaten with you hundreds of times, but the last time at the private restaurant he paid the bill was strangely vague."

Li Ruan looked at me and smiled, "Listen to your sister, let's not order it."

Come on, who's afraid of who? Anyway, you're going to suffer even the slightest loss.

Upon hearing the price quoted by the director, Fu Yurong immediately hugged Li Ruan, "Waaah, Li Ruan, don't let him cheat you. If it were up to you, you would have earned 568. Kong Wei is such a rip-off. Why didn't he say so earlier?"

Kong Wei's food is absolutely terrible!

The dishes were served slowly, and Li Ruan enjoyed the food leisurely. Of course, your plate of cucumber and tofu skin was the first to be finished.

"Oh no, stop pretending to cry, let's think about how to make money this morning."

You have money? If you have money, go make it!

Li Ruan: "I'll give you a cucumber and tofu skin dish, but it's spoiled."

When Li Ruan arrived at the hotel, she stood in front and chose the worst room among the eight people. The room cost 800 yuan, and a dish of cucumber and tofu skin cost 28 yuan, so she had to make a profit of 328 yuan.

Before the meal was finished, Kong Wei popped out with a smug grin, "Finished eating? Let's settle the bill now."

Director Wang was really obedient that time. He was so angry that he almost buried his head in the table. That damn bitch, can you even speak?

Then there's Yan Qianbin. Your room costs 100 yuan. Add your chicken feet dish, and you'll earn 768 yuan.

Everyone exclaimed in unison: ...What accounts are we talking about?

"You'll still believe him when he tells you about the hardships he's faced outside his home, but it seems to be true now."

Yes, everyone under the table could tell that Li Ruan sounded like a spoiled brat.

Silly child, how can you trick people if you tell them?

Not yet, whose money is real money? He seems to think he's being taken advantage of, isn't it just too wicked of him to say that?

"You can order your own food. The mission will officially begin after lunch."

Whoever orders pays!

Yan Qianbin followed suit and ordered a bone-in chicken feet dish, and that was it.

You misheard; those two women ordered only side dishes, not a single vegetarian dish.

"Yu Rong, let those young ladies order. You can eat whatever you want."

Suhe showed another side of herself, and I was the most obedient: "Why don't you order a cold dish too, like garlic eggplant?"

"The director's approach is too fair. These dishes are clearly meant for the family, so they should be shared equally."

Shen Qianqian's 800 yuan, plus the dishes I ordered, will make her 1040 yuan profit.

I paid Yu Rong 500 yuan for the room and 568 yuan for the food.

The menu was placed on the dining table, closest to Zhang Yifeng. Zhang Yifeng picked up the menu and started ordering: "Then we should order more dishes for lunch. After all, it's uncertain whether we'll even have dinner. Besides, we should try to get as much money as possible from Director Wang."

Jin Shihan felt that since there wasn't even a single dish yet, ordering too little was appropriate. But this was a live broadcast, and he knew he'd be in trouble if he ordered a whole table of food.

Next up were the eight of us, including Su He. Su He glanced at Li Ruan and said, "Sister Ruan, does he really love seafood? Look at that king crab, it's a good choice. We should order one for him."

"Li Ruan, is that what you mean? Never mind, let him misunderstand if he wants. Do you remember that he loves seafood? Next time you eat together, he'll order a lot. You were worried that you paid the bill that time, so you can order for him."

After saying that, I ordered eight dishes myself, following the menu.

Apart from the four people, the highest earner is at least 800. No matter what kind of work you do, you can only earn so little in half a day. You can only rely on your talents.

The remaining guests were not Zhang Yifeng and Director Wang. The two of them were actually in a similar predicament. Zhang Yifeng spent 800 yuan on food and 700 yuan on the room, so he had to make 898 yuan. Director Wang's room was the worst, costing only 100 yuan, but the seafood dishes added up to more than 1,000 yuan, so he had to make 1,136 yuan, the lowest of the four.

Jin Shihan, who had some food, should have been the most nervous, but—but—my room was the most expensive. Because I'm the lowest-ranking person, they didn't give me any face and gave me the worst room, which cost 800 per night.

The food they're serving now belongs to the investors; the investors are watching closely.

The whole family was dumbfounded.

Director Wang was stabbed in the heart again, but for the sake of face, he still ordered eight seafood dishes, each of which was extremely expensive.

Director Wang: ...My mom is going to trick Kong Wei into having a small table of food next time, did you think you saw it?

Li Ruan seemed quite lively, smiling as she looked at Director Wang. Yan Qianbin thought to herself: There's no more bad show to watch.

I only considered today's task complete after paying back the lunch money and the late-night room fee.

"Once the statement is made, you will say that your family is from the countryside, but you will not say that you are suffering outside your home. Your family is not suffering. You have about ten acres of land outside your home, and you also grow vegetables and raise chickens and ducks outside the yard. You are short of food. Your father does not have a formal job and does not earn more than a few thousand yuan a month. It is enough to support you and your brother."
