The others around were also furious, completely refusing to tolerate it. They pointed and whispered at Manager Li, cursing, "Are you sick? Are you crazy?"
What did we do to offend you?
"Are you getting angry because you're embarrassed? With an attitude like that, you think you can do business? Ha... you'll go out of business sooner or later!!"
"Exactly, Old Li, you're so immoral and have no manners at all, tsk tsk tsk..."
…
Manager Li was being verbally abused and pointed at, his face growing darker and darker. But seeing the angry eyes of the onlookers, he dared not fight back, fearing he would be beaten.
They could only slink through the crowd with difficulty and shame. By the time they got out, their once clean and fine clothes were covered with footprints, and their hair was a mess. They looked quite disheveled.
"Damn it!!!! These vulgar people!! It's outrageous!"
Looking at his beggar-like appearance, Manager Li felt both wronged and wanted to cry.
When has Manager Li, a man of such stature, ever suffered such humiliation?
"Ha ha ha ha!!!"
Seeing his appearance, the people behind him laughed even harder, which Li, the shopkeeper, found grating.
They quickly slunk away in a sorry state.
After bidding farewell to Wang Dachuan and the other two, Zhiyin and the other two yamen runners also began to leave.
"Boss, are you still going to stay open? I'm still starving!!"
When the diners saw Zhiyin come out, they all looked at her with pitiful eyes.
Zhiyin smiled, waved the clinking silver in her hand, and then waved her hand generously, laughing heartily, "Of course, thank you for your support and unwavering loyalty, brothers, sisters, and aunts."
"And also, I'm so sorry to have kept you waiting!!"
"To express my apology, each of you will receive a free dry pot of food. Choose whatever you like!!! Stir-fry it again!"
As the confidant's inspiring words fell, the remaining diners couldn't help but cheer.
I admire Zhiyin's generosity and magnanimity as a woman!
"No wonder their business is so good! It's not just the food that's delicious, we can't compete with their scale alone!"
"Who can argue with that?"
"It looks like the food industry in our county is about to undergo a complete transformation!!"
"Hmph, just a little brat, what big waves can she make? I think you're all going to die young, why would you be afraid of a little girl?"
…
Seeing this, even the other shopkeepers who came to watch the excitement couldn't help but admire their own abilities and were filled with curiosity.
Of course, some people are dismissive of this, thinking it's no big deal.
Seeing that there was no more excitement to watch, and that the other diners had followed Li Dachuan back to Zhiji Qianwei Dry Pot Restaurant, they also prepared to leave in twos and threes.
"Manager Wang, Manager Chen, Manager Baili... do you have any free time? Would you all like to have a casual meal together so we can all get together and chat?"
However, at that moment, a clear and melodious female voice rang out from afar.
They turned their heads reflexively and saw their kindred spirits smiling brightly.
Almost all the shopkeepers whose names were called were stunned, wondering if they had misheard.
After all, they had no connection with Zhiyin, so why did she know their names?
Why call them?
Is there some kind of conspiracy?
Thinking of this, their eyes gradually became wary as they looked at Zhiyin.
Zhiyin smiled lightly, seemingly unconcerned, and stepped forward again to extend the invitation.
This time everyone heard it clearly and was sure it was them being called.
"If I'm not mistaken, we probably don't have any connection, right? And we probably don't have much to talk about, do we?"
After all, they can at least be considered competitors!
Zhiyin simply raised an eyebrow and smiled, "There's no need to be so hostile towards me. We're all from the same county. Don't you want to leave this county?"
Don't you want your businesses to be spread all over the country?
"If you're interested, why not stay and chat? Perhaps we could collaborate?"
Although the shopkeepers present didn't know what Zhiyin was up to, they were somewhat tempted by what he said.
After all, it's obvious to everyone that Zhiyin's dry pot restaurant appeared out of nowhere. Not only was the name completely unfamiliar, but its popularity was also extraordinary.
Moreover, the diners are incredibly loyal! And the food is absolutely irreplaceable!
They couldn't help but feel a surge of excitement. Most importantly, their friend said that once they left the county, they were all over the country!
That's something they wouldn't even dare to dream of!
"Let's go then!!!"
The shopkeepers exchanged glances, and finally nodded decisively in agreement.
"Old Chen, Old Wang... you just left like that? Do you really believe this little girl has such great abilities?"
Seeing that almost all the shopkeepers had followed Zhiyin, the only remaining fat shopkeeper stamped his foot in disbelief, extremely displeased.
"If you don't believe me, Manager Baili, then don't come. But if you miss this opportunity, even if you beg me in the future, I won't give you a second glance!"
Zhiyin didn't tolerate Manager Baili, who disliked her and whose eyes and tone revealed contempt and disdain.
Hearing Zhiyin's arrogant words, Manager Baili, who had been somewhat hesitant, immediately sneered, "Ha, beg you for help? Little brat, you're dreaming!"
"Does your small dry pot restaurant think it can compete with our restaurant, which has a history of more than ten years?"
"That's utterly arrogant and delusional!"
"We'll see! Let's see who has the last laugh!"
He finished speaking dismissively and turned to leave, but halfway there he suddenly stopped and turned to look at the shopkeepers following Zhiyin. "I advise you not to follow a little girl around. If you end up being fooled and end up with nothing, don't blame me for not warning you!"
After he finished speaking, he snorted and his eyes almost rolled back to the sky.
The remaining shopkeepers exchanged bewildered glances, but none of them left. After all, the idea of expanding their shops nationwide was incredibly exciting!
As a businessman, no one doesn't want their businesses to be spread all over the country!
Nobody wants to lose face and glory!
This is undoubtedly a huge temptation, so attractive that even knowing it's not that simple, they still willingly give it their all!
In any case, they must listen to the thoughts of their kindred spirit before leaving!
In any case, it can't hurt, right?
Now it's a perfect opportunity to openly and honestly try out what this so-called dry pot restaurant is all about and why it's so irresistible.
They've wanted to try it for a long time, but they haven't been able to bring themselves to eat at their rival's house!
