"I'm reassured just because they source their fruits and vegetables from Fengshou Farm. Fengshou Farm is a leading enterprise in Haiyang Province; they can't go wrong with it."
“.”
Not only were the parents who came to the tasting event very satisfied with the lunch provided by Xu's Catering, but even the principals of other schools were very satisfied after tasting it, and they all asked Principal Deng of Tengyue Middle School for Xu's Catering's contact information.
"Talking on the phone is never as convenient, quick, clear, or straightforward as talking face-to-face."
After speaking, Principal Deng smiled at everyone, strode to the office door, grabbed the doorknob, and twisted it hard to open the door. Behind the door appeared a slightly chubby but very honest-looking middle-aged man.
"This is Wang Fulong, the head of the bidding department at Xu's Catering," Principal Deng introduced Wang Fulong, then introduced the seven people in the office: "Manager Wang, this is Principal He from Hongxing Middle School, this is Principal Yu from Mingde Middle School, and this is..."
Jinxiu Hotel.
Today is the day a long-time customer of Jinxiu Hotel is holding a birthday banquet for his child. This customer has been choosing Jinxiu Hotel for both work-related and everyday banquets for over a decade.
The hotel naturally values these loyal customers highly, and Ren Jialun, as the logistics manager, is no exception.
At 4 p.m., half an hour before the regular customers were to arrive, Ren Jialun went to the private room to do the final checks.
The arrangement of tables and chairs, the decoration of the OK private room, the fruits and green plants in the OK meeting area—everything in the OK private room is perfect!
After confirming that there had been no oversights or omissions in the work, Ren Jialun left the private room and returned to the kitchen. As soon as he entered the kitchen, he saw two employees putting things into the refrigerator in a continuous stream.
He took two quick steps and stood behind the two men, his gaze falling directly on the insulated box on the ground. On the side front of the insulated box, a large character 'Xu' was prominently printed, exactly the same as the logo of Xu's Catering, which annoyed him.
Ren Jialun didn't make wild guesses; he asked directly, "What is this? How did it end up in our kitchen?"
"These are tea drinks sent by the guests in room 208. We'll keep them in the kitchen for half an hour and then deliver them to them towards the end of the birthday banquet." After saying this, the kitchen staff member saw that Ren Jialun still had a displeased expression and quickly explained, "This is what you just instructed."
Even without the kitchen staff reminding him, Ren Jialun clearly remembered the incident, but he never expected that the tea served by the customer would actually be from Xu's Catering.
Looking at the neatly arranged tea drinks in the refrigerator, a sense of unease quietly crept into Ren Jialun's heart.
"Hello sir, how many people are in your party?" the hostess asked with a smile.
"There are three of us in total." Xu An said subconsciously, then realized it was inappropriate and quickly added, "We were invited to attend the birthday banquet in room 208."
"Yes, sir, this way please."
Upon hearing this, the hostess quickly checked the identity information and, after confirming that it was correct, led Xu An and the other two children to room 208 on the second floor.
"Brother, this place is so beautiful!" Xu Kang and Xu Le exclaimed for the sixth time since they saw the hotel.
"Yes, isn't it beautiful?" Xu An patiently picked up on their conversation, then asked, "When Kang Kang and Le Le have their birthdays, how about I invite your classmates here for their birthday parties?"
"Really? Brother, you're not kidding us, are you? This place is so beautiful, it must cost a lot of money. Brother, where did you get the money? Brother, are you robbing a bank? Brother, what if the police arrest you? What if the police arrest you?"
The two little ones were initially excited, then worried, and finally even concerned that Xu An might be shot by the police.
As the two little ones' increasingly outrageous guesses grew, Xu An even saw the greeter leading the way raise and lower the corners of her mouth, raise and lower it again, and finally keep it in a raised position, with the raised corners getting wider and wider.
Led by the hostess, Xu An arrived at VIP room 208. After greeting the host family, Xu An let the two kids play with their classmates while he sat down at the meeting table.
Xu An had barely sat down on the sofa when someone struck up a conversation: "Mr. Xu, we heard from Xin Yi's father that they specifically instructed the hotel kitchen to buy your Xu Family Braised Dishes to serve as cold dishes. We just had a bite, and the taste is really good. No wonder your business is so booming!"
"Haha, really? I didn't know about this before, otherwise I would have just sent it over." Xu An said while exchanging pleasantries, his gaze falling on the unusually lavish platter of braised dishes on the coffee table.
Um.?
Almost at first glance, Xu An noticed something was wrong with the braised dish. To confirm his suspicions, Xu An picked up his chopsticks, took a piece of duck intestine, and put it in his mouth.
Xu An wasn't entirely sure just by looking, but after tasting the braised food, he could immediately conclude that it wasn't purchased from his own braised food shop!
Although they look and taste almost identical, this dish of braised food is missing a certain flavor—a unique flavor derived from the spicy hot pot.
After putting down his chopsticks, Xu An laughed it off in the face of everyone's praise, without revealing the fact that the braised food was not produced by his shop.
Just when Xu An thought he had gotten away with it, someone among the children noticed the problem as well. The children hadn't yet learned the subtleties of adult conversations, and the one who noticed the strange taste directly voiced his question.
