Chapter 441 Diner Xiao Cai
Xiao Cai is the lucky diner selected for this tasting banquet.
She and her boyfriend had originally made a reservation for dining at Yongnianlou today. They had stayed up for three whole nights to get a number, but were told the reservation would be postponed two days in advance. Xiao Cai and her boyfriend were so upset!
Unexpectedly, it was announced that one table of the tasting banquet would be selected from the original reservation group today, and the dining qualification postponed to the next day would not be cancelled. This was simply pie in the sky! The audience who had been complaining a little bit were immediately happy, and they all hoped that they could be selected into the only ten places.
Xiao Cai and her boyfriend are among them.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Cai was extremely lucky and won the prize, but her boyfriend unfortunately lost out.
Before coming, my boyfriend was so envious that his mouth was almost watering. He said to her: "Why don't you secretly pack some for me? It doesn't have to be too much, just some to sweep up the soup at the bottom of the plate. Or you can put a couple of small snacks in your pocket."
Xiao Cai rejected her boyfriend sternly.
She then shared her lucky experience on WeChat Moments, Xiaohongshu and in her live broadcast room.
Unexpectedly, her post actually went viral in a small circle, and everyone urged her to live broadcast the entire process with text, so that netizens could be online diners for once!
In the age of traffic, data is king. When Xiao Cai's post on Xiao Hongshu received over 10,000 likes and over 1,000 replies, some brands even came to her for advertising! Xiao Cai is just an ordinary person. How could she have thought that a meal could bring her so much wealth? She happily agreed to the netizens' requests for simultaneous live broadcasts, but rejected the advertising invitations from unknown brands.
Xiao Cai still knows her own weight. Temporary traffic does not mean permanent traffic. She is not born to eat this bowl of rice! Besides, what if those WeChat business brands that she has never heard of from nowhere bring trouble to her and her sister Zhi? Xiao Cai knows that these people are not trying to get her own traffic, but Sister Zhi's traffic! You want to corrupt me with the smell of money? Humph, wishful thinking!
Xiao Cai put his cell phone in his pocket and happily stepped into Yongnian Building on time.
At the door, there are receptionists who are all well-dressed and gentle-spoken ladies and brothers, wearing modified traditional Hanfu, which complements the quaint decoration of Yongnian Building! Xiao Cai was a little annoyed that he was dressed too ordinary. He came in a simple T-shirt and jeans. He should have dressed up earlier...
"Guest, welcome to Master Nanzhi's feast. Please show us your invitation."
A beautiful and gentle young lady came towards me.
Xiao Cai quickly took out his phone:
"My invitation is electronic, is that ok?"
The young lady smiled: "Of course!"
She used a machine to scan the barcode on Xiao Cai's invitation letter and personally led her to the corresponding seat.
Also remember to remind:
“You can take photos and record videos, but you can’t live stream.”
Xiao Cai breathed a sigh of relief.
She thought the rules were strict and even cell phones were not allowed, but she didn't expect it to be quite humane!
"Little girl, this is just a normal meal, not a state banquet, no need to be so exaggerated."
An old man next to Xiao Cai smiled.
He looked very old, with snow-white hair and a kind face. The wrinkles on his face made him look wise and elegant, making people feel like they were bathed in a spring breeze.
Xiao Cai then realized that he had muttered out his thoughts without knowing it.
Her cheeks suddenly flushed and she explained in a low voice:
"I, I've never been to such a nice restaurant before, nor have I experienced such a big scene."
She could see clearly all the way in that Yongnian's second floor and the first floor lobby were completely different concepts. Needless to say, the decoration was exquisite. This time, it was carefully arranged for the banquet.
To be honest, it really gave Xiao Cai a sense of solemnity as if he was attending a state banquet! And along the way, he met many well-known bigwigs, as well as men and women dressed in luxurious clothes.
Even the lucky diners who came to the same table were obviously dressed up formally, except Xiao Cai who was dressed the most casually.
This also made Xiao Cai feel like a young seedling that had entered a different world, and seemed out of place!
The old man next to him did not laugh at Xiao Cai's cowardice.
Instead, he said openly,
"Everything has a first time! In that case, if you have any questions, just ask me and I will tell you everything."
"Very good!"
Xiao Cai didn't expect to meet a dining companion when he came to eat a big meal! Although this dining companion is a bit old...
"You are so cool, old man. You even knew how to participate in the online lottery and won! But are you here alone? Your family members didn't come with you."
"Well, it's just me."
The old man nodded with a smile.
Xiao Cai didn't suspect anything and patted his chest and said, "It's okay, we'll take care of each other! Just tell me if there's anything!"
The old man should be fine.
Xiao Cai then distracted himself and looked around casually, and found that everyone at their table was already seated.
Hey, that's not right. Didn't they say that each table should have 10 people? Why are there 11 people at their table? Xiao Cai counted them again and found that there were still 11 people.
She was a little confused, but her thoughts were soon interrupted by the vibrating cell phone, so she didn't think about it any further.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Her phone was filled with messages from netizens urging her to share her photos quickly.
Xiao Cai did not feel impatient. Instead, he happily sent out his thoughts on the way in.
Just as she was typing, a waiter brought each guest a large glass soup bowl filled with clear white water. A few rose petals were sprinkled on top, and it smelled sweet.
Xiao Cai scratched his head and muttered:
"You have to be so particular about drinking water? But isn't this bowl a little too big..."
Despite saying this, she still picked up the glass soup bowl with both hands and prepared to bring it forward.
"Why!"
The old man beside her stopped her and said helplessly,
"This is not for drinking, it's for washing hands."
Xiao Cai: “Ah?”
Some diners at the same table also put down their soup bowls in embarrassment.
By the way, raise your ears higher.
Xiao Cai put down the soup bowl awkwardly, oh no, should I say wash basin:
"Sorry, I don't know!"
The old man shook his head:
"You can blame the waiter for not introducing it. The staff training of Yongnianlou is not good. They don't even do the most basic things. No wonder the ranking of Zhenxiulu has been falling in recent years."
Xiao Cai was confused by what he heard.
Employee training is not good enough?
But when she came in just now, she felt that all the waiters and waitresses were very polite.
So she humbly asked: "What else is not good enough?"
The old man pointed coldly at a place not far away: "Did you see those two waiters? They were standing aside politely, but when the customer obviously couldn't find a seat, they were indifferent. This shows a lack of initiative."
