Chapter 1600: Chapter 1601: The 1600 oysters!

Xiao Chen discovered some anomalies.

He wouldn’t believe for a second that this tourist company didn’t have some under-the-table deals with this restaurant.

But he didn’t say anything. Even if there were such deals, as long as the food tasted good, he’d still pay.

He had heard of this local dish before and even tasted it elsewhere, but he wondered how it tasted here.

“Yu Lan, make sure to record your observations in detail. This tourist company practically covers all of Taiwan Island’s tourism business.

It’s one of the largest tourist companies on the island.

But privately, its reputation isn’t great.

Our mission this time is to go undercover, so be careful not to reveal your identity too easily, let’s observe and then decide.

If the reputation is poor, we also need to see exactly how bad it is and to what extent.”

Xiao Chen said in a hushed tone.

“Got it, brother!”

Xiao Yulan nodded, discreetly turning on the pinhole camera hidden in the pocket of her jacket.

It’s a camera that can directly connect to satellites, and the data will be directly transmitted to the database in Longcheng.

Xinmeng Group is a company with principles; they don’t just take in any junk. Even if they do, it must be revamped.

If it’s rotten to the core and beyond saving, then straight-up bankruptcy.

The airplane food wasn’t good.

So many people didn’t eat anything on the flight.

Just sitting here and smelling the aroma made a lot of people drool.

At that moment, Xiao Yulan seemed to forget her identity, as her drool trickled down.

“Yu Lan, mind your image as a lady.”

Xiao Chen looked exasperated.

You, Xiao Yulan, have been the head of a large company before; how can you lose your principles at the mere whiff of aroma? That’s unacceptable.

Many people ordered dishes and rice.

Someone couldn’t resist starting to eat without even asking the price, because there were no price tags displayed at all.

They were ravenous.

Xiao Yulan couldn’t resist either and ordered some special snacks to eat, drooling as the saliva poured down.

“Boss, how much for this portion?”

Those who were more cautious asked for the price before ordering.

“One portion is one thousand six Dragon Coin!”

The boss said coolly.

One thousand six!

Poof!

Several people spit out what was in their mouths right away.

A portion of snack for one thousand six, that’s practically daylight robbery.

“You didn’t ask for the price, so don’t blame me! All our items are clearly priced. We make it if you want to eat, and we won’t force you if you don’t.”

The boss stood firm.

“But your prices are way too high; you’re ripping people off, Lin Tour Guide, we trusted you so much, yet you brought us to such a shady place.

We’re not eating!”

Tourists were furious.

No one wants to be treated as a sucker.

You might grudgingly accept a price of one hundred for a portion, but one thousand six? That’s definitely a rip-off, even if it was made of gold, it shouldn’t be that expensive.

“I won’t eat either!”

“Too unfair!”

The tourists were angry and aggrieved.

“Fine, don’t eat then, but pay first and leave. This place is for paying guests, not for those who don’t want to spend money.”

The boss said coldly.

“If I knew the price, I wouldn’t have eaten!”

“But you already ate!”

The boss said coldly: “I didn’t force you; if you eat and don’t pay, that’s against the law. Don’t say I didn’t warn you if you get into trouble later.

This is Taiwan Island, far from your home, I fear you won’t be able to return!”

“Ah, how unlucky! Pay up, pay up!”

These tourists were relatively wealthy. Not wanting to stir up trouble, they just admitted bad luck, having eaten the dish anyway.

All who had eaten reluctantly handed over the money. Truth be told, the food was really tasty, very flavorful.

But it was just too expensive.

Several people approached Lin Ling to reason.

Lin Ling sighed and said: “It was you all who wanted to eat, and this is the only dining place on this road. I took you here, and then you complain it’s expensive.

Fine, fine, if that’s the case, let’s go; we’re not eating then.”

“Hold on, Lin Tour Guide, I have a stomachache.”

The driver conveniently found an excuse to escape, and who knew if he truly had a stomachache, but it guaranteed the group couldn’t leave.

“Hehe, this gourmet is worth the money, whether you want to eat it or not; there’s not much, and it’s hard to get enough raw materials.

Once it’s finished, there won’t be any more for those who come later, so suit yourselves!”

The boss didn’t seem to be doing this for the first time. He appeared very calm, as if he knew exactly what would happen.

“Not ordering, definitely not ordering. Even with money, we can’t let ourselves be slaughtered like sheep!”

“Exactly, one thousand six for snacks? Even Michelin restaurants aren’t this expensive!”

“Does he think it’s topped with caviar?”

…

The crowd fiercely refused to negotiate.

They all walked out of the restaurant.

The weather here on Taiwan Island was indeed very hot.

Standing under the sun was truly unpleasant.

Inside the car, without keys, they couldn’t turn on the air conditioning; it felt like sitting in a sauna.

Being hungry was one thing, but the heat was unbearable.

This was real torment.

Lin Ling sat there, ordered some snacks, ate while sneering.

Calculating today’s income.

This restaurant shares profits fifty-fifty with her.

The bus had a total of sixty people; if each person spent a thousand, that’s sixty thousand.

Half would be thirty thousand.

Earning thirty thousand Dragon Coin a day was truly profitable.

Although a large portion had to be handed over to the company, she’d still pocket five to six thousand.

Still considered as high earnings.

“Brother, I’ve made you spend.”

Xiao Yulan smiled bitterly.

Although one thousand six wasn’t much to her, the feeling of being ripped off was indeed uncomfortable.

“No worries, eating is eating, as long as the food is good.”

Xiao Chen said: “Let’s have three more portions.”

He didn’t plan to pay, dealing with extortionists amused him since he could respond in kind.

“Brother, more?”

Xiao Yulan was stunned.

“Why not? I’ve never had an oyster omelet worth one thousand six.”

Xiao Chen smiled.

“Aren’t you bothered by being ripped off?”

Xiao Yulan asked again.

“Who’s ripping off whom isn’t definite yet.”

Xiao Chen chuckled.

This shady restaurant ran into him today, so its misfortune.

“Everyone, don’t just stand there, come eat! I’m buying today, eat as much as you want.”

Xiao Chen invited the crowd.

It’s not easy to travel together.

He saw an elderly couple nearly fainting under the sun.

As a wealthy person with morals, he thought he shouldn’t just stand by.

“But it must cost you a fortune, it’s obviously a rip-off.”

Someone was grateful to Xiao Chen but was embarrassed to let him pay, intending to spend their own money.

“Everyone don’t be shy, I said I’m buying, so I’m buying. Stop fussing, come inside; it’s scorching outside, elderly and children can’t stand it.”

Xiao Chen announced.
