Chapter 344 Dazzled
fly?
impossible!
Chen Feng denied it immediately and looked at the people in front of him carefully. Seeing that they were aggressive, it was obvious that they had no good intentions.
To keep things quiet, he put on a smile.
"Gentlemen, calm down. I will give the order and replace the table with new food and wine for you. This table will be my treat today. I hope you will forgive me for any shortcomings in my hospitality."
Butcher Li invited these three people to his meal to cause trouble. His purpose was to let them make a big fuss about the flies in the dishes, the bigger the better. He would then take advantage of this opportunity to spread the news in Qingshui Town so that all diners would know that their cooking was unhygienic, thus achieving his goal of ruining Ruyi Tower.
He promised to reward each person with ten taels of silver after the task was completed.
But the three of them changed their minds as soon as they entered the store. Wouldn't it be a shame not to take advantage of such a good opportunity to blackmail them?
As long as I succeed this time, I will be able to make money from here continuously in the future. Isn’t that wonderful?
The bald man snorted disdainfully, "Boy, you're dreaming. You want to send us away just by changing the table. Do you think we are beggars?"
"That's right, I have a stomachache, I feel dizzy and nauseous. If you don't compensate me, I won't leave." The sharp-nosed monkey also started yelling at the top of his voice.
Scarface threatened fiercely, "I'm telling you, little brat, hurry up and give us five hundred taels of silver, and today's incident will be over. Otherwise, we'll smash your shop and take the evidence to the county government to sue you."
Wu Shiren, who was hiding outside the door and watching the excitement, saw everything that happened inside clearly. He was very angry when he saw that several people were playing blackmail and not getting to the point.
He pinched his throat and yelled, "Oh my! A big fly was found in Ruyilou's signature dish. It's disgusting. No one should eat here."
Several guests who were about to enter the house stopped in their tracks.
"What? Such a high-end restaurant cooks unclean food. If I get sick, I won't suffer. Let's go to another restaurant!"
"That's right, let's go to Qingfeng Restaurant across the street. It's an old restaurant and people can rest assured when eating there."
“The new dishes launched by this restaurant are said to have a unique taste. It would be a pity not to try them.”
"Taste is important, but if you taste something you shouldn't, you'll be sick to death."
"Yes, yes, let's go."
Wu Shiren was so proud that he almost laughed out loud. He never thought that a small fly could save his shop. If he had known it was so easy, he would not have let Duoduo steal the secret recipe.
The diners dining in the house looked at each other, then stood up and gathered around.
Scarface saw that Chen Feng ignored him, so he gave up the idea of blackmailing and pointed at the plate in front of him.
"Everyone come and take a look! This is Ruyilou's signature dish. Ordering a pork elbow and getting a dead fly delivered is so fucking disgusting."
Just as Wu Shiren was secretly delighted, Chen Qingqing's voice suddenly rang out.
"Everyone, don't leave so quickly. This might just be a farce!"
As he spoke, he looked at Wu Shiren standing at the door with an ambiguous smile in his eyes, "Boss Wu, why don't you come in and sit down? What are you shouting outside our restaurant like a sneaky guy?"
Looking at Chen Qingqing standing at the door, Wu Shiren's face was hot, and he felt embarrassed like a thief crying "stop thief".
"I...I just heard the noise, so I came over to see what was going on. What's wrong? No way!"
Chen Qingqing smiled, "Why not? But I'm afraid that will disappoint Shopkeeper Wu."
All the guests who can enter and leave Ruyi Tower are shrewd people. After hearing Chen Qingqing's words, they realized that the person who had just induced them to leave was the owner of Qingfeng Restaurant. They seemed to understand something immediately.
"What this young lady said is true. Perhaps there really is some misunderstanding in such a large restaurant."
"Yes, yes, it's a shame to leave without even getting to taste the spicy hot pot."
Chen Qingqing did not enter the house, but stood at the door looking at Scarface and others.
She wanted to see how Chen Feng would resolve the matter. Doing business required learning to deal with all kinds of people. They were just a few scoundrels. If he couldn't even resolve such a small matter, he would have to stay in this small Qingshui Town in the future.
At this time, Chen Feng frowned. Although he didn't know how the fly flew in, these people were not willing to give in and didn't want compensation.
If we argue, it will only make people feel that Ruyilou is bullying customers, being irresponsible to customers, and that the dishes they make are not clean.
Wouldn't this ruin the reputation of Ruyi Tower?
He had to endure this matter. After all, harmony and integrity were the most important thing in doing business.
Seeing the diners gathering around him, Chen Feng was extremely anxious.
If diners who don't know the truth find flies in the dishes, Ruyilou's business will definitely be affected.
It's impossible to remove the plate.
His eyes rolled, a plan came to mind, and he smiled at the bald man, "Sir, please don't get angry first. Let me see where the fly you are talking about is."
As he spoke, he picked up a pair of chopsticks, picked up the fly from the plate, and took a closer look. "What a misunderstanding! This is not a fly at all, it's clearly just a peppercorn."
When the bald man heard this, he immediately flew into a rage, "Bullshit! Are you blind? Do your peppercorns have wings?"
"That's right, stop playing dumb. The facts are right in front of you, and you still dare to deny it. Let's see for ourselves whether you are a fly or a peppercorn."
The sharp-nosed monkey originally wanted to make a big deal out of the matter and let everyone know that Ruyilou's cooking was not clean. As long as he aroused public anger, he would take the opportunity to smash the store. This would not only ruin Ruyilou's business, but also extort some money, which was really killing two birds with one stone.
But what he didn't expect was that Chen Feng looked nonchalant at this time. He picked up the fly, put it under his nose, smelled it, and put it into his mouth.
He smacked his lips vigorously a few times, smacked the taste, and nodded.
"Anyang peppercorns taste really good. They would taste even better if they were fried a little longer."
Seeing him put the fly into his mouth, several people were stunned.
The monkey's eyes widened, his face full of disbelief. "You, you, you, why did you eat the fly?"
Chen Feng shook his head and smiled, "Sir, you are really dazzled. This is not a fly, it's just a piece of undercooked Sichuan peppercorn."
"You're talking nonsense. That's clearly a fly. Don't deny it. I personally..."
The bald guy was hit by the sharp-nosed monkey before he could finish his words.
The bald man came back to his senses instantly. It was a close call. He almost told the truth. He rolled up his sleeves and acted as if he would never give up.
"You little bastard, what I saw was just a fly. Don't try to fool us, or I'll be rude to you."
Scarface also recovered from his shock and pointed at Chen Feng, shouting, "Stop pretending to be a fool, you kid! We found a fly in the food at Ruyi Tower. You must give us an explanation, or we will smash your black shop."
