Mingyueju.
We asked someone to catch crayfish yesterday, and today the restaurant started making spicy crayfish.
Ning Zeming asked Manager Liu to spread the word that Mingyueju would also be making spicy crayfish today. In order to offer discounts to new and old customers, today's crayfish would be 15 cents per plate. As soon as the news came out, many customers really went to Mingyueju.
Ning Zeming looked at the lobby filled with guests and smiled triumphantly.
They are too young to fight him.
So what if he had the County Lady as his backer? He could still defeat them and bring all the customers back. The laws of Daliang didn't say that you couldn't make the same dishes.
Shopkeeper Liu and the waiter kept serving dishes, but Chef Yan in the kitchen was so busy that he didn't even have a chance to drink water or go to the bathroom.
The customers in the lobby were still making a lot of noise and chattering, making it very lively.
"Pfft, what's that smell? Are you trying to poison us?"
Suddenly, a customer who had just eaten a crayfish spit it out and rinsed his mouth with tea.
"Bah, Shopkeeper Liu, what do you mean? Give us these things to eat!"
Another customer spat out the crayfish and shouted in disapproval.
"Yes, Shopkeeper Liu, you must give us an explanation for feeding us these things."
"Manager Liu, what do you mean? This is spicy crayfish? You can't lie to us like this even if you want to lie to others."
"How can something this disgusting be called spicy crayfish? Are you sorry for insulting crayfish?"
“Return it! Return it!”
"Give me back the money! Give me back the money!"
The customers in the lobby started to make a fuss, blaming Manager Liu and demanding their money back.
Shopkeeper Liu, who was so busy that he didn't even have a chance to drink a sip of water, heard that someone was making trouble and demanding a refund, so he went to deal with it immediately.
"What's wrong? Does the crayfish taste bad?"
Shopkeeper Liu came to the first troublemaker, and it turned out to be the young master of the Wu family.
"Manager Liu, what do you mean? You're giving me this kind of food. Do you think I can't afford it, or do you want to humiliate my Wu family?"
Wu Gang, the young master of the Wu family, angrily scolded Manager Liu.
His Wu family is one of the most famous and prestigious families in Taizhou Prefecture and is not easy to bully.
"Master Wu, you misunderstood. That's not what I meant. Let me try. Is it really not as good as eating it?"
Manager Liu immediately apologized and appeased him. He didn't dare to offend this little ancestor.
The Wu family has been here for over a hundred years and has deep roots. They even have backers in the capital, so they are not someone a small person like him can offend.
Shopkeeper Liu picked up the chopsticks and picked up a crayfish to try.
The spicy and fishy taste of the crayfish in his mouth made Manager Liu want to vomit. He quickly spit it out, otherwise he would make a fool of himself.
The taste is really too addictive. I'm afraid it will leave a lasting impression on you once you try it. No wonder so many customers ask for a refund. It's really too unpalatable.
What did Chef Yan do to make such inedible crayfish? Does he want to demolish the restaurant?
"I'm sorry everyone, maybe the kitchen was too busy and we were shorthanded. Today's spicy Xiao Long Bao was our fault. To make it up to you, I'll give you a 10% discount. How about that?"
Shopkeeper Liu comforted the customer and promised to give him a 10% discount.
"Shopkeeper Liu, is that all?"
Young Master Wu asked Manager Liu with a sneer.
"What else? I've already given you a 10% discount."
Shopkeeper Liu said this with cold sweat on his forehead.
"Does this young master look like someone who is short of money? You want to get rid of us like this?"
Young Master Wu said with a sneer of contempt.
His Wu family didn't have much of anything except a lot of money.
Moreover, all the Wu family's property was given to him. He didn't need so much money, he simply couldn't use so much money.
"What does Master Wu want?"
I know that it is not easy to fool this little ancestor. If I don't pay some money today, it will be difficult to calm down Young Master Wu's anger.
"I don't want to do anything. You lied to me that you had crayfish to eat, so I came here. In the end, you gave me garbage to eat. You said that if you didn't pay me tens of thousands of taels, I would let you go.
You know, I've eaten this garbage before, and I wonder if it will have a negative impact on crayfish, so I won't be able to eat the spicy crayfish at the Sun Family Restaurant. I've made such a great sacrifice, how can I not compensate you? "
Young Master Wu rebuked Shopkeeper Liu in righteous words, saying that he would not let Mingyueju go unless he paid compensation.
"That's right. The spicy crayfish made by the Sun Family Restaurant is sweet and spicy. Look at what you made. It has a strong fishy smell. Are you calling us peasants by giving us these to eat?"
"Yes, pay me money! Pay me money!"
"If you don't pay me, we'll smash your things!"
The customers in the lobby started to make noise, with some radical customers even threatening to destroy the restaurant.
This time, Shopkeeper Liu was so frightened that he dared not make a decision. He looked at his boss, but his boss angrily stormed out and ignored him.
Seeing his boss walk away in anger, Shopkeeper Liu had no choice but to apologize to the customers and give them one or two taels of silver as compensation.
This is not a small amount. Twenty or thirty people would cost twenty or thirty taels of silver. For Manager Liu, it is three months' salary.
What hurt him the most was Young Master Wu's compensation. Only after he paid him one hundred taels did Young Master Wu stop making trouble.
"Everyone, listen to me. Let's go to Sun's Restaurant and eat spicy crayfish. Let their flavor wash away the fishy smell here. Otherwise, I won't dare to eat crayfish anymore."
A customer suddenly raised an opinion.
"Okay! Let's go to Sun's Restaurant and eat spicy crayfish!"
"I'll go, I'll go, and use the money I paid to eat some authentic crayfish."
"What are you waiting for? Let's go quickly, or there won't be any more crayfish for those who are slow. They only serve thirty portions a day."
"I'm leaving first!"
"You are immoral! Wait for me!"
As a result, the guests of Mingyueju flocked to Sunjia Restaurant.
The lobby, which was originally packed with guests, suddenly became silent and deserted.
The Sun Family Restaurant, which had been bustling with customers and had been deserted for a while, suddenly saw an influx of customers. They found seats on their own accord, and the place was suddenly filled to the brim with activity.
