Chapter 421
C421 – A Bigger Surprise
“Is there a problem with me reserving a private room?” Piao Yongxian did not think that there was anything wrong with it. In fact, in other restaurants, as long as you paid enough, no one would care if you were reserving a private room.
In other words, as long as you satisfied the consumption of the private room, it would not be a problem for you to open a few private rooms in one go.
However, there was a problem here. The front desk patiently explained to him that there was no minimum consumption in the private rooms of the Divine Dragon Great Restaurant. Therefore, in the main hall, everyone could only order two dishes at most. If they ate more, they would be full. Because of this, private rooms could only be reserved for three people or more. This was also to leave a spot for those who really needed a private room to gather or discuss matters.
Piao Yongxian naturally did not agree. He shouted that it was impossible to open a private room here in the K Country. Why couldn’t he spend money here?
In the end, the front desk had no choice but to tell him two solutions. One, invite two friends to come and eat here, or if you are a big shot, invite two people from the main hall to eat together. Two, if you really don’t have any friends and want a lot of dishes, you can choose to order takeout. If you want a few dishes, as long as the restaurant can make it, they will let you eat to your heart’s content.
In the end, it was just a matter of reality. If you wanted to open a private room here to eat, it was impossible.
In the end, Piao Yongxian had no choice but to endure the anger and finish eating in the main hall. Then, he walked away angrily and said that he would never come again.
However, no one paid any attention to her words. If they didn’t come, then they didn’t come. The Divine Dragon Flying Phoenix and the K Country Restaurant were the best restaurants in Yanjing. Even the C People couldn’t fill their stomachs. Did they really need to rely on a customer from the K Country Restaurant to support them? It was not a big deal if they had one more customer. However, they were being too serious by challenging them. It was obvious that they were treating themselves too seriously.
The rules of the Divine Dragon Flying Phoenix and the K Country restaurant were indeed very ridiculous. The most troublesome part was the fact that the people who wanted to show off their wealth were unable to do so here.
One person and two dishes, what the hell was there to show off?
However, there were policies on the surface, but there were countermeasures on the inside. Later on, these bosses developed their own strategies. When they entered the restaurant, they brought a group of people with them. In the end, only a few people were left after ordering the dishes. Even the boss was eating alone, and the others were watching him. This made the restaurant helpless. They had no choice but to let the boss show off his wealth.
Originally, they only wanted to save money. After all, most of the people who heard the rules expressed their understanding. After all, it was something that would benefit everyone.
In the private room, Zhang Xiaolong and Ina were focused on eating. Liu Siyu was fiddling with her phone from time to time. In the end, she even turned on her laptop.
“Siyu?” Zhang Xiaolong called out to her, “Why aren’t you eating yet? The dishes are already cold.”
“You guys eat. I saw something interesting…” Liu Siyu’s fingers were already busy typing on the keyboard.
Zhang Xiaolong could only shake his head. Although he could beat Liu Siyu in some technical aspects, in terms of passion, he would not be able to catch up to her even if he were to flatter her.
Once he found a new discovery, this little witch would definitely carry on with her research even if she didn’t eat or sleep.
The two of them had no choice but to eat first. It was only when they were almost done eating that Liu Siyu began to eat contentedly.
“We’re waiting for you downstairs.” Zhang Xiaolong greeted her and left with Ina.
He went to meet Yang Haosheng first. Although the two restaurants were managed by Old Master Yang, the old man rarely came over. He would only come over to take a look when he had time.
Luh Xiaoya had also started school. She couldn’t take care of everything here at the same time, so most of the matters fell on Yang Haosheng’s shoulders.
Fortunately, Divine Dragon Flying Phoenix had already stabilized. However, the daily trifles were not a burden for Yang Haosheng, who was an expert in the industry. The restaurant was still operating steadily.
“So you are the owner of this place!” Through the conversation with Yang Haosheng, Ina naturally noticed the clues. “No wonder this place is filled with culture.”
“You’re too kind. I am just providing a direction. The things that happen here are all done by others. It’s just that the people who do things for me are all capable. They have done a good job in completing this idea.” Zhang Xiaolong smiled.
“Nowadays, there are very few people who have such thoughts. Everyone is a business person, because only business people can make money. Therefore, business has become the truth.” Ina seemed to be a little helpless about the current situation.
“It is understandable that business is the truth. After all, everyone needs to eat and develop their economy. Everyone has a dream of having a culture, but if it clashes with reality, then it can only be replaced by reality. What I am doing is actually trying to let everyone see some clues. At the same time that business is happening, I can also take care of other things. Actually, not only will there be no conflict, but it will also be beneficial.”
After Zhang Xiaolong finished speaking, he smiled again, “However, this is also a pain in the ass. The Divine Dragon was able to do it because it had survived a lot of competition. These beneficial effects won’t be effective when it comes to competition. Therefore, in conclusion, this can only be done when the competition is stable. If the competition is unstable, it will be too difficult to do these things.”
“May I ask if you are Miss Ina?”
The two of them had already walked downstairs. A young girl came in from outside the restaurant with a smile on her face.
“I am Ina. Is there anything you need from me?” Ina was a little surprised.
She had been in Yanjing University for a long time, but she did not know many people. Furthermore, she had never appeared in public before, causing many people to not know that there was a beautiful teacher like Ina until they graduated.
“Someone has gifted this bouquet of flowers to Miss Ina. Please accept it.” The girl reached out her hand from behind her back, and a large bouquet of fiery red roses bloomed in front of her.
“This…” Ina looked at Zhang Xiaolong with a troubled expression.
If it were any other flower, she would gladly accept it. However, she didn’t even see the person, so accepting the other party’s red roses seemed a little inappropriate.
Originally, her heart was beating fast. She thought that Zhang Xiaolong had arranged it for her. Now that they were very familiar with each other, she even thought about whether she should accept it or not. If she didn’t accept it, how could she reject him so that he wouldn’t feel embarrassed and hurt the friendship between the two of them?
However, after taking a glance, she immediately felt relieved. This was because Zhang Xiaolong didn’t know who the owner of the flowers was like her.
“I’ll take it for you.” Zhang Xiaolong reached out his hand and took the bouquet.
After all, this girl seemed to be just helping him out. She was too embarrassed to refuse him. Since Zhang Xiaolong was taking it, there was no problem. In fact, Ina could totally deny it!
Well, at the crucial moment, she needed to have some shamelessness!
Although the girl was also a little surprised, she accepted the bouquet. She happily invited Ina outside, saying that there was a bigger surprise waiting for her outside.
Surprise? It would be better if it was just a scare!
