Chapter 296 Fake Wine
Shopkeeper Wan nodded and watched Xu Miaomiao turn around and leave.
Perhaps because today's dishes were sweeter and more to Song Weiwei's taste, she nodded happily while eating, and even the worry between Xu Miaomiao's brows disappeared.
"Okay, I've forgiven you."
Xu Miaomiao smiled slightly when she heard this, picked up a wine glass, clinked it with Song Weiwei's and said, "Thank you very much, Master Weiwei, for not taking my fault seriously and forgiving me."
Seeing this, Song Weiwei was so happy that she clinked her wine glass with Xu Miaomiao's, and then put her things down.
After Song Weiwei finished eating, she was about to take Xu Miaomiao back to the department store, but he stopped her: "Let's go take a look at the restaurant opposite."
"Why do we have to go? Didn't we just have dinner?" Song Weiwei was still a little confused, so she patted her stomach and said, "I'm so full of food, let's go later."
Xu Miaomiao smiled slightly when she heard this, flicked her head, and said, "Stupid, who said I was going to take you to dinner."
Seeing this, Song Weiwei was a little confused, but she still followed Xu Miaomiao, and the two went in together.
Seeing that there were guests, Xiao Si immediately stepped forward to welcome Xu Miaomiao in. The hall was already full of people, and there were no empty rooms during the day. Seeing this, Xu Miaomiao asked, "Is there any empty table?"
"Yes, yes, of course there is." Xiao Si said as he took Xu Miaomiao and Song Weiwei to the innermost table and let them sit down.
After getting the menu, Xu Miaomiao was a little shocked when she saw the prices on it. A normal pot of wine was around twenty cents, but this restaurant's wine was reduced to ten cents, which was almost a half-price reduction. If this was the case, would she still be able to make a profit from the wine?
Xu Miaomiao couldn't help but wonder, "This wine is so cheap, how does your store make money?"
Xiao Si touched his head awkwardly when he heard this and said, "Isn't this to thank customers for coming here often? So we organized a discount event. This wine is unlimited, and the price has been reduced a lot. The taste is also amazing. You two guests may want to try it."
Seeing this, Xu Miaomiao looked at Song Weiwei, and they immediately ordered a pot of osmanthus wine and almond wine. When the wine came, Xu Miaomiao drank a glass first, but couldn't taste any of it.
Song Weiwei on the side took a sip of osmanthus wine, frowned slightly, turned her head and took another sip of almond wine.
Whispering in Xu Miaomiao's ear, "This wine seems to be mixed with water!"
When Xu Miaomiao heard what he said, she picked up two glasses of wine and put them to her nose, sniffed it, then turned to look at Song Weiwei and said, "If it was mixed with water, why is the smell of wine so strong?"
Song Weiwei was puzzled for a moment, then picked up the wine and put it to her nose and smelled it. It seemed like a semi-finished product made of half sake and half osmanthus wine, which was diluted with water to become this smell. Not only did it have a strong osmanthus smell, but it also had a strong wine smell.
Song Weiwei also thought deeply: "The cost of sake flavor is no more than five cents at most. Sake is used instead of water to add to the osmanthus wine. It can not only maintain the original strong taste of the wine, but also reduce the price. It is indeed a good deal. It's a pity that this sake can't be drunk too much, otherwise it will burn the body. Maybe it's because the concentration is too strong. If you are not a strong man, it's better to drink less of this kind of wine."
When Xu Miaomiao heard Song Weiwei say this, she threw down her wine glass in anger. Her violent noise naturally attracted the servant beside her. The servant looked at Xu Miaomiao and immediately asked, "I wonder what the two ladies are not satisfied with? Is it because of our wine that the two ladies don't like very much?"
Xu Miaomiao remained silent. Instead, she looked at Xiao Si and said, "Go and call your shopkeeper to come and see him."
Seeing Xu Miaomiao so serious, the servant did not dare to stay and immediately turned around and left to find the boss.
When she saw the boss, Xu Miaomiao was a little surprised. Compared to the handsome scholar Wan, this boss was a businessman. She came over with a big belly. When she saw Xu Miaomiao, she immediately put on a smile and said, "I wonder if we didn't treat you well enough. What do you want to talk to me about?"
Xu Miaomiao looked at the man and said, "It might be inconvenient to talk about some things here. Shopkeeper, let's find a secluded place."
Ever since the last incident at Zuixiefang, Xu Miaomiao knew that she had to persuade the other party privately first. If that didn't work, she could then expose the other party's true colors. This was not really for the sake of her own Xiangchunfang, but for the health of more people. She had to resolve this matter.
Seeing Xu Miaomiao's serious look, the shopkeeper did not dare to be careless and immediately invited the people to an empty house. Seeing that there was no one around, Xu Miaomiao slowly said, "Use sake instead of water to add to this osmanthus wine. Drinking it like this will kill people."
When the shopkeeper heard Xu Miaomiao say this, he was stunned. He looked at Xu Miaomiao with some horror and said in a serious tone: "Who are you?"
Xu Miaomiao waved her hand and said, "It doesn't matter who I am. But now that your tricks have been exposed by us, do you still want to continue doing this?"
"What do you know? How can an outsider like you know my difficulties?" The man frowned slightly and looked a little angry when he said this. He looked at Xu Miaomiao and said, "If it weren't for the fact that Xiangchunfang and that department store opposite had joined forces and launched those fine wines, my store would not be able to compete with them. As a result, fewer and fewer people come here. If this continues, I'm afraid I will go bankrupt."
"But even so, you shouldn't use such a despicable method." Xu Miaomiao continued, "I know that business is not good, but if you do this just to attract customers, at the cost of harming other people's health, and keeping the people in the dark, what can you do?"
The man opposite looked at Xu Miaomiao in surprise after hearing these words, then pointed at her with a trembling finger and said, "Who are you?"
Xu Miaomiao bowed to the man and then said, "To be fair, I am the shopkeeper of the department store, Xu Miaomiao."
"It's you. Get out of here quickly. You are not welcome in our restaurant." The man said as he was about to drive Xu Miaomiao out.
But Xu Miaomiao dodged the man's push and stood aside, watching the man say, "Boss, today I have the honor of advising you. If you continue to use sake instead of water to add to the osmanthus wine, don't blame me for being ruthless. Tell me about your selling fake wine. I don't know if you can have any business in the future."
"Okay, now that you're rich, you want to kill me." The man roared at Xu Miaomiao at the top of his lungs.
