"Your boss is really too conceited. Didn't he do any research before opening the business? With this kind of strength, he wants to overwhelm the others? He even boasted that he wanted to become the number one seafood restaurant in the provincial capital? Isn't this just asking for trouble?"
These voices calmed down many ordinary people who were confused by the propaganda offensive.
After hearing what these people said, some people who were planning to order food put down their menus.
"No way? Are you kidding me? I think this Ancient Capital Hotel is quite powerful."
"Forget it. If you trust me, just leave the money here. You can go and see it for yourself when the first floor opens! No wonder they are only holding a symbolic event on the first floor and have no intention of promoting it in a big way. Compared with them, this Ancient Capital Restaurant is not worth mentioning at all."
At this time, some people noticed those who said the opposite, and then gathered around to ask them about what happened on the first floor.
At that time, a young man stood up and said, "Mr. Liu, I heard that you are offering a 50% discount on all items today? Is this true?"
Mr. Liu's eyes twitched and his face looked a little unhappy.
Are you kidding me, 50% off for everything?
This huge-looking tiger fish, as well as the lobsters and ordinary fish next to it, are indeed 50% off.
Because these things are cheap in bulk!
But the more precious bluefin tuna and the slightly larger abalone were purchased with great effort and at a price higher than the original cost!
How can these things be 50% off?
So Mr. Liu set a trap. Ordinary ingredients were indeed 50% off, but the prices of these expensive top-grade ingredients did not drop at all.
"Everyone, you know the prices of top-quality ingredients, so a 50% discount is unrealistic. However, our restaurant's king crabs, lobsters, and king crabs are all 50% off today! Think about it, you would have to spend thousands of dollars to eat them in the past, but today you only need a very low price. Isn't this discount enough?"
Mr. Liu became more and more confident as he spoke, and the people around him nodded.
"Yeah, even though it's a 50% discount, we can't break people's bones! Those expensive ingredients cost tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of dollars, and ordinary people can't afford them. Anyway, these are not my goals."
“Although this Gudu Restaurant is not real, it still has real discounts, so it’s not false advertising!”
The manager also quickly stood up:
"You are right, the price is very reasonable. Of course, it only applies to common ingredients, except for top-quality ingredients and special-priced ingredients, so please don't make trouble."
"Yes, yes, the manager is right. Isn't this obviously asking for trouble? The price is very suitable!"
“I didn’t expect that even Australian lobsters and king crabs were 50% off. They are so cheap.”
"This is simply a loss-making business. If you miss this opportunity, you will never get it again. You should seize the opportunity."
Below are people who come here because of the reputation of the restaurant. They don’t care about the small amount of money spent on the meal, and they are already very satisfied when they see that there are discounts on Australian lobsters and other items.
But just when everyone was gradually accepting this, suddenly, the young man who had asked the question before sneered.
"So it turns out that only some seafood items are 50% off? Aren't you guys just cheating me?"
As soon as these words were spoken, Mr. Liu and the manager next to him changed their expressions.
The people around were also surprised!
After all, the manager has come out to explain and everyone has accepted it. It would be really disrespectful of you to continue to dwell on it.
However, he was not the only one causing trouble. A middle-aged man in his forties with a big belly shook the Patek Philippe watch on his wrist!
"Aren't you deliberately targeting high-spending customers like us? I heard that the store across the street is offering discounts on bluefin tuna, abalone, and other top-quality ingredients. They're offering a 50% discount. You, a stingy guy, want to compete with that store? Isn't that funny?"
"Yes, yes, yes. The entire floor is discounted, whether it's seafood or other things. Even if you like the kitchen knives in someone's kitchen, as long as they want to sell them, they will also offer a 50% discount. They are real over there, there are no such wording traps."
"No way, according to what you said, abalone worth hundreds of thousands of dollars is discounted by 50%? Wouldn't that mean we would lose a lot of money?"
"This is the confidence of the first floor, and also the attitude of the first floor! Maybe there will be losses, but everyone will definitely benefit. Otherwise, why would they become famous in this provincial capital in such a short time!"
For a moment, the whole audience was in an uproar.
The abalone is relatively easy to deal with. After all, it is most likely not alive, and frozen items are naturally cheaper, so most people can still afford it even without a discount.
But bluefin tuna is different.
This thing, whether frozen or not, is a scarce commodity and its price is extremely high. Now it is 50% off, which means that many people who were reluctant to buy it before can finally have a taste of it.
Therefore, after hearing what these two people said, more customers who were planning to order food immediately put down the menus in their hands and frowned, thinking that this ancient capital restaurant seemed a little unreal and gave people a feeling of selling dog meat under the guise of selling mutton.
And it leaves a bad impression on many guests, who feel they have been cheated.
"It seems that this Ancient Capital Restaurant is probably a scam. They deliberately want to discredit the first floor, so they opened it opposite. I think I'd better not be fooled. I'll see what their attitude is after the first floor opens."
Mr. Liu and the manager, who were standing at the front introducing the products to everyone, were stunned for a moment, then their faces gradually turned ugly.
“Those people!”
The manager's face turned dark. He realized that Mr. Liu next to him was unhappy and that he might be in trouble too, so he immediately pointed at the people who had just spoken.
"Did you guys get paid to come here to cause trouble? How can one floor be so powerful? It's obvious that you are just trying to discredit our newly opened restaurant!"
When the manager said this, the other people who had just spoken were stunned!
Especially the middle-aged man wearing a gorgeous watch, his face suddenly darkened.
"You say we are agents?" the middle-aged man sneered.
The few people who had just been to the first floor and were communicating with everyone were also shocked.
"I said, you should be the manager of this Ancient Capital Hotel, right? Don't you have such a little tolerance? Are you afraid that your boss will deduct your salary? So you dare to suspect that we are agents?"
