The sister-in-law's proposal was approved by Han Chunsong. She thought that since Suning was already so rich, there was nothing wrong with him eating and drinking for free. On the contrary, it was a sign of respect for Suning. After the two parents-in-law talked about it,
Just started doing it.
Han Chunsong's whole family went out together, went straight to Chaoyangmen and then went back upstairs. Then they ordered a large table of Sichuan cuisine. It can be said that the whole family had a hearty meal.
"waiter!"
"Hello! Do you need anything else?" A waitress came over with a smile.
"No more! Let's settle the score!"
"Hello! You have spent a total of eighteen yuan today."
"Ah? So many? Could it be that you miscalculated?" Han Chunsong and his wife opened their eyes in surprise.
"Hello, here is the bill, and what you ordered are our specialties. We will not make mistakes."
"Okay! Help us pack the leftovers." After thinking that she didn't have to pay for it herself, the sister-in-law ordered the waiter.
"Okay, please wait!"
The waiter acted quickly and the service was very good. Anyway, it was a very rare good standard in the early 1980s. Even the demanding sister-in-law and Han Chunsong were quite satisfied.
"Hello, the meals you need to pack are ready. The total is eighteen yuan."
"Little sister, you must not know us, right?" The sister-in-law picked her teeth and squinted at the waitress in front of her.
"Ah? I've never seen you as a customer." The waiter shook his head in confusion.
"Yes! It's all in vain for me to tell you." The sister-in-law asked the waitress disdainfully, "Let the person in charge of you come over."
"Ah? Okay! Please wait a moment!" The waiter was very confused, but still served very politely, "I'll go ask our store manager."
"Hurry up! We have to go home and watch TV."
"Uh? Okay!"
After a while, the female store manager who returned upstairs came over with a puzzled look on her face, then looked at Han Chunsong and his family with a smile, "Hello, I am the store manager of this restaurant.
Is there anything else you need?"
"Well, is Li Chengtao here? Let him come out to see us!"
"I'm sorry! Our general manager usually doesn't visit the store in person."
"What? Our Han family invited him to work, but he was not in the store every day. I asked him if he still wants to work?" The sister-in-law looked at the female store manager angrily.
"Uh? Who are you?" The female store manager was also confused by the arrogance of Han Chunsong's family.
"Hmph! I am the sister-in-law of your boss Han Chunming. They are Han Chunming's eldest brother and nephew." The sister-in-law introduced herself very arrogantly.
"Ah? Disrespectful!"
"Okay! We won't embarrass you! Let your boss Han Chunming pay for today's meal another day." After the sister-in-law said that, she got up and left.
"Ah? Please wait a moment. I'll call our Mr. Li first."
"Well, hurry up! We have to rush home to watch TV!" The sister-in-law looked impatient.
"Okay! Soon!"
The female store manager hurriedly ran to the front desk and called Li Chengtao. When Li Chengtao answered the phone, she was completely confused by Han Chunsong and his parents, "Manager Yu, please let...eldest brother answer...
..a phone call so that I can...confirm his...identity."
"Yes! Mr. Li!"
"Hello! Mr. Han, please answer the phone. We, Mr. Li, need to confirm his identity." Manager Yu returned to Han Chunsong again and asked him to answer the phone.
"Huh! It's really troublesome!" Han Chunsong and his sister-in-law looked at each other and said impatiently.
Han Chunsong followed the female store manager to the front desk, answered the phone and said arrogantly, "Hey! Is this Tao Zi?"
"It's me! Brother, are you going back upstairs to eat?"
"Yes! The waiter actually asked me to pay. I have to pay for my own meal. What's going on?"
"Eh? That's what brother said! Please give the store manager your phone number and I'll talk to them."
"It's for you!" Han Chunsong proudly handed the phone to the female store manager.
The female store manager said yes to the phone a few times, then looked at Han Chunsong with a forced smile, "I'm sorry, Mr. Han, you can go!"
"Hmph! Keep your eyes brighter next time! Don't cause so much trouble!"
"..."
Looking at the arrogant and domineering Han Chunsong family, all the employees who returned to the building felt very uncomfortable. In fact, their consumption this time was not exempted, because there was no real exemption of orders when they returned to the building.
Li Chengtao helped pay the money.
...
Guan Xiaoguan looked at Li Chengtao who hung up the phone in confusion, "Mr. Li, whose phone number is it?"
"Manager Yu, who went back upstairs, said that Han Chunming's eldest brother Han Chunsong went back upstairs to have dinner."
"Ha! Is it because Han Chunsong doesn't want to pay?"
"Ah? Mr. Guan, how did you know!" Li Chengtao's eyes widened in surprise.
"Hey! This is why I look down on some people. They like to take advantage too much." Guan Xiaoguan said with great disdain.
"Chunming's eldest brother is my eldest brother, so I can only help pay for it myself." Li Chengtao explained nonchalantly.
"Hmph! This family has already tasted the benefits and will keep coming here in the future. I see how much salary Mr. Li can have to help them pay for it."
"Eh? Probably not!" Li Chengtao also became a little scared.
"Haha, if you don't believe me, let's wait and see!" After Guan Xiaoguan said that, he went directly to reconcile the account.
At this time, Li Chengtao also had a lawsuit on his head. He felt that he had suffered an unreasonable disaster. Because Yuebin Catering was very formal from the beginning, there was no such thing as free orders for small restaurants. At most, it was discounts or food delivery, so Li Chengtao paid the bill
It was solved by hanging on myself.
Thinking of what Guan Xiaoguan expected, if the Han family often does this in the future, it will be a big trouble. No one can handle this kind of magic.
Next, as Guan Xiaoguan expected, Han Chunsong and his family tasted the sweetness of eating and drinking for free for the first time. They took turns eating and drinking in four restaurants with the whole family every day.
Now all the employees in the four restaurants have gotten to know Han Chunsong and his family. When they saw Han Chunsong and his family coming again, they secretly showed disdain. However, Li Chengtao was always footing the bill. Apart from being a little unhappy, the employees were not too dissatisfied.
Han Chunming also did not know about this matter for the time being.
Seeing Li Chengtao being tortured to death by the Han Chunsong family's huge appetite, Guan Xiaoguan felt very disdainful. She hated this kind of "idiot" who said "Hello, I am good, everyone". In the original play, the two of them had a long-term relationship.
They got together while getting along, but now Guan Xiaoguan can't find the advantages in Li Chengtao.
"What? You can't bear it now, can you?"
"Uh? This is not the eldest brother I know!" Li Chengtao was also full of annoyance at this time. He did not expect that Han Chunsong's family would go so far, "Why did he suddenly become like this?"
"Hey! That's because you didn't know him at all before. You see, Han Chunming is too lazy to talk to his brothers and sisters."
"Mr. Guan, what do you think I should do?"
"It's simple! Just tell Han Chunming. It's his relative anyway, so he should solve it by himself."
"Ah? That's not good!"
"Haha, it's up to you! If you don't want to, just continue to help pay."
"Guan Xiaoguan, you must have other ways. Please help me, please?" Li Chengtao knew that Guan Xiaoguan must have other ways, so he looked at Guan Xiaoguan with a pleading look.
"Haha, you are not too stupid, and you still know how to ask me for advice." Guan Xiaoguan glanced at Li Chengtao proudly, "The method is actually very simple, do you still remember Meng Xiaoxing, the foreman before Cha Piao Xiang?
"
"Meng Xiaoxing? Isn't she working as the lobby manager in Jin Changsheng now?"
"Yes! As long as she knows what Han Chunsong did, other Han family members will definitely know it, and then Han Chunming will also know it soon."
"Ah? Then how should we let Meng Xiaoxing know?"
"Idiot!" Guan Xiaoguan couldn't understand Li Chengtao's stubbornness. "Meng Xiaoxing has always had a good relationship with Liu Chen, the waiter at Cha Piao Xiang. They often have contacts. You can call Liu Chen over and give her
With a benefit fee of fifty yuan, things will become very simple."
"Ah? Haha, why didn't I think of that!" Hearing Guan Xiaoguan's method, Li Chengtao was immediately pleasantly surprised, "Guan Xiaoguan, you are still smart. You really deserve to be Mr. Guan's granddaughter!"
"Hmph! Seeing as you are so stupid, it's up to me to deal with Liu Chen!"
"Thank you Mr. Guan!"
Guan Xiaoguan looked at the clumsy Li Chengtao and shook his head helplessly, then left the office and went to the Chapiaoxiang operation. This kind of little trick was a piece of cake for Guan Xiaoguan, and it was easy for Meng Xiaoxing to know about it.
This incident also made everyone unaware of Guan Xiaoguan and Li Chengtao behind the scenes.
When Meng Xiaoxing found out about this incident, she actually didn't think it was anything special. After all, all four restaurants were owned by Han Chunming, and it was fine for Han Chunming's eldest brother to go eat and drink for free. He was just a little bit agitated when he heard that Li Chengtao came forward to pay.
Meng Xiaoxing was surprised.
Meng Xiaoxing immediately found the second eldest brother Han Chunsheng, "Second brother, do you know that the eldest brother often goes to the fifth brother's restaurant to eat now?"
"Ah? Where did he get so much money?"
"Second brother, it's not like the eldest brother spends money. He eats and drinks for free every time."
"What? Xiaoxing, what's going on?"
"Second brother, here's the thing. The eldest brother's family goes to eat without paying at all, and Taozi will help him pay the bill."
"Ah? Why is Li Chengtao helping big brother like this?"
"Hey! You're trying to flatter Fifth Brother!" Meng Xiaoxing looked very disdainful.
"No! I will also take your second sister-in-law and your nephew to eat tomorrow."
"Huh? Second brother is so right!"
The ensuing army of freeloaders suddenly grew in size, and the masterminds behind the scenes, Guan Xiaoguan and Li Chengtao, were caught off guard. Unexpectedly, Meng Xiaoxing did not tell Han Chunming or Han's mother the news.
"Mr. Guan, what should we do now?"
"Ah?" Guan Xiaoguan has never met such a "god man". He will compare and imitate all operations, "I don't know now."
The four restaurants were in a mess due to Han Chunsong and Han Chunsheng. Many Yuebin Catering employees had strong opinions against them, but they had no choice. After all, they were all relatives of the boss.
...
Su Meng recently spent a lot of time attracting customers for her uncle. Whether they were colleagues from the Education Bureau or tourists from the tour group, Jin Changsheng's business was extremely booming.
But Su Meng was not happy, because she found that the business of the Friends Restaurant opposite was not affected, but felt more popular than before, which was completely contrary to her original intention.
Su Meng's uncle saw Su Meng's unhappy face, and then looked at Su Meng with a smile, "Mengmeng, my uncle's business is so good now, why do you still look unhappy?"
"Uncle, why hasn't the business of Juyouyou Restaurant across the street been affected at all?"
"Silly boy, guests like to get together when eating." Looking at Su Meng who was confused, his uncle explained with a smile, "For example, there are many restaurants in Hong Kong, and guests all like to go there to eat, so naturally
Every restaurant business is booming.
In addition, Juyou Restaurant already has a group of regular customers, so of course the business will get better and better."
"Ah? How could this happen?"
"Mengmeng, the capital is very big! The whole of China is also very big!" Looking at Su Meng who looked disappointed, his uncle said with emotion, "It is impossible for one person to do all the business, so if you want to get together
Friends Restaurant has no business, it can only be caused by their own internal problems."
After hearing her uncle's explanation and analysis, Su Meng showed a thoughtful expression. She felt that doing business was a great business and contained a lot of wisdom.
"Mengmeng, my uncle will take care of the business, as long as you work well in the Education Bureau."
"Yes, I will, uncle."
Suning rarely comes to the Four Restaurants. Today, he was at the museum to receive a batch of newly purchased antiques, so he was too busy to eat yet. Then Suning personally came to the Juyou Restaurant to buy some Shandong cuisine.
But as soon as he entered the Juyou Restaurant, he saw Han Chunsong's family and Han Chunsheng's family sitting in the lobby eating respectively. Suning did not go up to say hello, but called the manager of the Juyou Restaurant.
"Manager Lin, what's going on with my eldest brother and second brother?"
"Well?"
"It's okay! You don't need to hide it from me." Sensing Manager Lin's concerns, Suning said with a nonchalant smile.
"Boss, they often come to Friends Restaurant for dinner recently, and they don't pay. Every time, Mr. Li helps pay the bill."
"Oh? Are they just here to get together with friends, or are they going to all the other three restaurants?"
"Eh? Go to them all! Every time I order the most expensive specialties, and I order a lot of them. If I can't finish them, I take them away." Manager Lin showed a wry smile, "And...
.”
"Did he treat you badly?"
"Yes!"
"Manager Lin, I apologize to you on behalf of my brother and the others. I'm sorry!"
"Ah? Boss, please don't say that."
"Haha, leave this matter to me! I will take care of it!"
Suning comforted the excited store manager Lin, and then went straight to Han Chunsong and Han Chunsheng who were eating, "Brother, second brother, is the food in my store delicious?"
"Ah? Chunming?" Han Chunsong and Han Chunsheng both looked guilty.
On the contrary, the sister-in-law was very calm. Seeing that Suning was not nervous or ashamed at all, she still greeted Suning shamelessly, "Xiaowuzi, you haven't eaten yet, have you?"
Let’s sit down and eat together!”
Suning was too lazy to pay attention to this smart woman, and then just looked at the two brothers Han Chunsong and Han Chunsheng, "Eldest brother, second brother, come with me to the third floor now. I have an office here."
Of course, Suning couldn't make the two brothers stand down in public in public, and he went to the office to resolve the matter in a very dignified way.
Following Suning to the office on the third floor, Han Chunsong and Han Chunsheng were very uneasy. This was the invisible pressure brought by money and status. This was simply impossible before. After all, the concept of the eldest brother being the father was deeply rooted in
human heart.
"Manager Lin, please help me and my two brothers get a glass of water."
"Okay! Boss!"
Manager Lin soon brought the tea, then closed the door and left very knowingly. When only the three brothers were left in the office again, Suning personally poured tea and water for the two uneasy brothers.
"Eldest brother, second brother, Meng Xiaoxing was right at the beginning.
These four restaurants all belong to me and are wholly owned by me, and the property where the restaurants are located also belongs to me."
"ah?"
"Isn't this office beautifully decorated? Today is my first time here." Looking at the two surprised brothers, Suning explained with a smile, "Although I don't come here at all, people still come to clean me every day.
.”
"..."
"Brother, second brother, the reason why I am telling you this is not to show off to you, but to tell you that we are pursuing different things now, and there is no need for you to force me."
"Chunming..."
"Brother, listen to me first. As a man of the Han family, I think the most important thing is integrity!"
"I think back then, our family of six did not give up our dignity and integrity during such a difficult time in 1960.
Now that we have all grown up and our lives have become better, you have automatically given up on your bottom line as a human being. You have really disappointed me, my younger brother."
"Tell you the truth!
These four restaurants of mine do not provide credit at all, nor do I give anyone free orders, and all your purchases in the four restaurants were paid for by Taozi."
"ah?"
"Eldest brother, second brother, if you still think you are a man of the Han family, pay all your debts to Taozi tomorrow, and don't embarrass our old Han family."
