C28 The Consequences Were Unthinkable

On the upper floor, when he saw the scene of everyone fighting over the food, he couldn't help but praise Soong Junlian, "Young Master, Madam is really amazing."

The corner of Soong Junlian's mouth was filled with a proud smile, "Do you know what she is so amazing about this time?"

Mu Chen thought for a moment and said, "These customers may seem to have taken advantage of her, but in reality, they have spent more money. Although Madam seems to have lost some money, she actually earned more. Furthermore, this method can make the restaurant as lively as it is. The number of customers that come is only increasing."

Soong Junlian poured a cup of tea and took a sip before he said, "That's right. How can a businessman make a loss? It's just that to them, they have indeed gotten a discount. How could they still be concerned about it?"

Mu Chen said from the bottom of his heart, "Young Master, you have picked up a treasure."

With such a talented and beautiful wife by his side, Soong Junlian was indeed proud, "It is my greatest honor to have her."

...

The unique hotpot and unique marketing strategy instantly caused the entire city to explode. Every day, there would be an endless stream of customers coming to the restaurant. In fact, they had even lined up at the entrance.

Tao Xiyuan had been so busy during this period of time that her head was covered in sweat. However, this kind of life made her incomparably fulfilling. Seeing the money in her purse increase day by day, she was getting closer to the day Chenchen would wake up.

However, with the market, there would be competition. Naturally, there would be people who would be jealous of the first place.

This time, the owner of the Drunken Immortal Restaurant, Zhang Fugui, saw that his restaurant was getting more and more deserted, and the long line in front of his restaurant was getting longer and longer. The jealousy in his heart grew stronger and stronger.

Of course, the waiter was worried as well. If this continued, he would probably lose more and more money. If it wasn't for the fact that the Eight Immortals Restaurant temporarily didn't need people, he would have gone there already.

He couldn't leave, and waiting was not a solution either. He kindly suggested to his boss, "Boss, why don't we make a discount coupon or something? We can make more than her. Won't all these people come?"

Zhang Fugui immediately rejected it, "Of course not! That money is what they should pay! Why should I give it to them? And give them more? Why don't they just go to heaven? I don't believe that she can hold on for long!"

The waiter sighed silently in his heart. He couldn't bear to lose money, so he tried to persuade his boss, "Boss, aren't we just making money by losing money?"

Zhang Fugui spat on the ground, "Pah! These idiots, I don't want to lose a single cent!"

The waiter was speechless.

He glanced at Zhang Fugui, who had a big belly and a round waist, and shook his head secretly.

There was no one in the restaurant, and there was nothing to do. The waiter was about to find a place to take a break and take a nap when Zhang Fugui suddenly called out to him, "Here, come over here and tell me. You..."

In the shop, Tao Xiyuan was so busy that she couldn't even move her arms.

The others were also so busy that they didn't even have time to drink water.

There were three pots of stir-fried ingredients on the table, but no one had come to carry them. It just so happened that there were customers in front of the restaurant, so she had to personally carry them out.

Just as she was about to go back and carry the third pot, she suddenly realized that a customer was walking out with a tray. When he saw her, he was a little nervous.

Tao Xiyuan frowned slightly and muttered in her heart. The kitchen was a heavily guarded place. Normally, people were not allowed to enter, but on second thought, it was probably because the customer was in a hurry and came to carry it herself.

In any case, they were the ones who came late, so they couldn't say anything. They just said, "Sorry, sir, but there isn't enough manpower. Please come over and carry it for me."

After saying that, she reached out to take it.

However, the customer unconsciously took half a step back. His eyes were a little evasive. "It's fine. You can do what you need to do. I'll just carry it over."

After saying that, he walked away with quick steps. He didn't even look at Tao Xiyuan, afraid that Tao Xiyuan would snatch it away.

Tao Xiyuan looked at his back and felt that something was wrong, but she couldn't put her finger on it. She felt a little uneasy.

Seeing that she was lost in thought, a guard ran over and asked, "Madam, what's wrong?"

Tao Xiyuan shook her head and rubbed her eyebrows. "It's nothing. Maybe I was thinking too much."

She paused for a moment and then reminded him, "Don't let them in the kitchen if they can't wait for guests in the future. You can give them some snacks to comfort them."

"Yes." The guard nodded. Since there was a guest calling, he continued to work.

Tao Xiyuan walked to the back kitchen while thinking about the guest she had just met. The more she thought about it, the more she felt that something was wrong. She went into the kitchen and looked around carefully, but there was nothing unusual.

That person was the bottom of his own pot. He couldn't have harmed her.

Wait a minute!

What if he wasn't the one who was cooking?

"Oh no!" She slapped her head and hurriedly ran out of the kitchen.

Fortunately, she had just taken a look and remembered where the person had gone. However, the person was nowhere to be seen. Instead, when she looked through the window, she saw the person enter the Immortal Indulgence Restaurant.

The guests at the table were already preparing to eat the hot dishes. She was so shocked that her heart was in her throat!

"Wait! Don't eat first!"

She rushed over and stopped the guest.

The guest was stunned for a moment. He put down his chopsticks and asked in a daze, "What's wrong?"

Tao Xiyuan was not sure if there was anything else in the pot, but she didn't want to bet. She explained, "I'm sorry, everyone. This bowl of soup was ordered by another guest. It was specially ordered to be heavy and spicy. If ordinary people ate it, they might have a stomachache. I forgot to tell my waiter. He didn't know and brought it up. I'm really sorry."

The guest was a reasonable person. She did not bother about it and waved her hand, "It's alright. I'll just change to another set."

Tao Xiyuan quickly called for the servants to remove the pot and the dishes. She then took a new set of dishes and drinks.

After dealing with the guest, she returned to the kitchen and finally let out a sigh of relief.

The restaurant was still busy, so she could not leave for the time being. She called for the guards to bring some of the pot to test for poison.

Not long after, the guard returned. There was indeed poison in the pot.

At night.

"Luckily, you discovered it in time. Otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable. The people of the Immortal Drunken Restaurant are truly bold." Soong Junlian's expression was heavy. In broad daylight, there was actually someone who dared to poison him. This person did not even put him in his eyes.

"Muchen, I think it's because the business here is too good that they are blinded by greed."

Tao Xiyuan's expression was also a little serious, "Without evidence, it's hard to conclude this matter. In the future, everyone should be more cautious and pay more attention to the Immortal Drunken Restaurant. In a few days, I will add more people."

Today's matter had also served as a warning to her. It was inevitable that there would be disputes when people were greedy. Such a thing would not happen again in the future.

Everyone nodded in agreement. After a busy day, they were all tired. After exhorting them a few more times, Tao Xiyuan did not stay any longer and let them rest.
