166. Sky-high bicycles
At two o'clock in the afternoon, Ye Yuan finished what he had to do at the International Hotel and left the hotel in the eyes of everyone.
At the door of the hotel, the doorman was still there, and when he saw Ye Yuan coming out, he still greeted him respectfully, he didn't know what was going on inside, but he still adhered to his professionalism.
"Where's my car?" Ye Yuan came to the door, but didn't see his bicycle, and turned around to ask the doorman.
The corner of the doorman's eyes twitched, and then he replied: "I'm sorry, the bike can't enter the garage, I put him in the corner, you can go get it yourself." ”
Ye Yuan nodded, and walked to the corner with an oh sound, but there was no whereabouts of the bicycle except for some sundries.
Ye Yuan turned back, looked at the doorman and asked, "There is no car in the corner, you can look for it again." ”
The doorman was stunned, there was still someone who wanted this kind of broken bicycle, but he still followed him to the corner, but he really didn't see the bicycle.
"Maybe someone took it away when I collected the garbage just now, I'll help you ask. The doorman frowned and returned to the bar, but came out again a few minutes later.
"Sir, I'm sorry, I asked the cleaner, and I also looked at the surveillance at the door, but I didn't see your bicycle appear, maybe it has been lost. ”
The doorman replied very sincerely, still maintaining his professionalism, but from his eyebrows, he only saw a little impatience, but there was no guilt.
Ye Yuan glanced at him slightly, then held his chin and said, "Valet parking is your obligation here, if the guest's car is lost, is it the responsibility of your hotel?"
The doorman's mechanized smile at the moment was also retracted, and his tone was a little stiff: "We valet park, all the cars are parked, and there are no bicycles." ”
Ye Yuan said more seriously: "Isn't a bicycle a car? Your hotel has a rule that bicycles can't be parked on behalf of guests?"
This rule is naturally impossible, but no one will come to the international restaurant to eat, and the doorman is also required to keep the bicycle. In fact, if Ye Yuan dresses up decently, or the bicycle is better, the doorman will also put it in the store for safekeeping, but who would have thought that such a dilapidated antique would also be stolen.
The doorman endured the irritability and replied: "Okay, how much is your bicycle, can't I accompany it?"
Ye Yuan sighed for a moment, and then asked rhetorically, "Then you admit that it is your responsibility?"
The doorman looked at the ordinary uncle, and began to say impatiently: "Even if I'm unlucky, how much do you say!"
The doorman had already wasted more than ten minutes here, and in the process, another doorman had already sent off several guests and received hundreds of dollars in tips.
You must know that whether you are a waiter or a doorman here, the basic income is not high, only more than 3,000 yuan. But every time he serves a guest, especially some distinguished guests or foreign guests, he can receive a lot of tips, and he once received more than 20,000 tips a month, which is several times higher than his salary.
Now instead of talking to a greasy uncle about a broken bicycle, it is better to lose his money, how much is a bicycle worth, which is also the reason why he looks down on the uncle in front of him. You can't tip at all, who would work so hard to serve.
Ye Yuan sighed again, then took out his mobile phone, looked it up, and then wrote lightly to the doorman: "This car is about three million two hundred thousand now, I will follow the transaction price last year, a total of three million, do you swipe the card or cash?"
The doorman was stunned when he heard this, and asked rhetorically, "Much, how much?"
Ye Yuan replied without blushing or panting: "Three million, Huaxia coins, not dollars, you don't have to be afraid." ”
The doorman immediately jumped up and couldn't help but scold: "Old fellow, you blackmail, right? When I am a fool? A broken bicycle costs three million, why don't you rob a bank?"
The doorman's voice attracted the attention of others, and Ye Yuan showed the doorman the screen of his mobile phone, only to see that on the official website of Bole Auction City, the first batch of permanent brand bicycles for the founding of the People's Republic of China were auctioned at a sky-high price of three million and thirty thousand, and its appearance was really similar to Ye Yuan's.
The doorman was immediately stupid, but he immediately came back to his senses and yelled at Ye Yuan: "I understand, you went to great lengths to get an invitation, just to touch porcelain, right, tell you, your grandfather and I are the ancestor in this line, and you still play this set with me?" You said that you handed over the bicycle to me, is there any evidence?"
The doorman just saw that Ye Yuan couldn't produce evidence, as for the monitoring at the door of the hotel, just find a reason not to show it, and say hello to the hotel when the time comes, and can't clean up this porcelain?
Who knew that Ye Yuan Shi Ran took out a voice recorder from his pocket, and then released his voice.
"Sorry, the bike can't go into the garage, I've left him in the corner and you can get it yourself. ”
This sentence was clearly displayed in the ears of the doorman, and the tone that seemed to be humble, but revealed indifference, was also amplified.
The doorman gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, you did come prepared, but you thought it would scare me? What evidence does your broken bicycle have that is the permanent version? Who knows if it's a fake you picked up from the scrap?"
Ye Yuan said unhurriedly: "Do I look like someone who uses fakes?"
The doorman looked him up and down, and said disdainfully: "I really don't see that you look like a real person." ”
Ye Yuan took out a bill from his pocket and said, "This is the invoice of Bole Auction City, if you are interested, you can go to me to see the appraisal certificate." ”
The doorman couldn't help but sneer: "Hehe, this is all my leftovers, an invoice of 100 yuan, open it casually, the identification of evidence is even simpler, the Yangtze River Delta market wants a lot, do you want to take you there?"
Ye Yuan still said indifferently: "It's really not really verifiable, but if you don't give an explanation today, I'm afraid you won't be able to pass this hurdle." ”
When the doorman heard this, this was a threat, and then he thought again, why is this sentence so familiar? No, this sentence, how can he seem to have experienced this scene?
"Mr. A, what's going on?" At this time, Lin Zhengming, who heard the dispute, walked out of the hotel, and a group of wealthy businessmen came with him.
Seeing so many bigwigs coming over together, the doorman couldn't help but feel a little weak, but when he saw Ye Yuan's dress, he forced himself to calm down and said: "I'm really sorry to disturb you, we can solve a small matter in the store." ”
The doorman saw so much attention from the big guys, which inevitably attracted the hotel manager, this greasy uncle touched the porcelain matter, but disturbed the guests, he didn't have to mix, and immediately wanted to fool the past with his three-inch tongue.
But these bigwigs didn't look at it, they just listened to Ye Yuan talk, and then the result was naturally to blame the doorman.
This movement led to the general manager here, and in the face of these big guys, the general manager also nodded his head, and when he heard that his doorman was in trouble, he was angry.
"Zhao Cheng! Are you blind? Who is Mr. A? Does he use fakes? You don't want to do it, do you?"
After scolding the doorman, the general manager turned to Ye Yuan, kept making amends, and said that he would definitely investigate the facts thoroughly and give him an explanation, as for the limited edition bicycle, he would also be compensated according to the price.
When the doorman Zhao Cheng saw this, he suddenly felt that the world was spinning, who would have thought that this seemingly ordinary greasy uncle was really a big guy, but that bicycle was really worth a lot. Three million, isn't that killing him?
"I don't think it's necessary, it's my business with him, so I won't bother you, thank you. ”
Ye Yuan and the others exchanged pleasantries for a while, and then they dispersed, the bicycle matter was a small episode, for this group of bigwigs, it was as simple as dealing with a fly.
But for Zhao Cheng, it is a big event, he used to be a gangster who specialized in porcelain, and later trusted the relationship to enter the international hotel as a doorman, he has a flexible brain, and soon won the recognition of the leader.
But now that he is blind and has offended the big guy, who will help him at this time, facing this huge amount of compensation, he can't afford to smash the pot and sell iron.
"On the matter of compensation, let's go to Zhang Weiwei's law firm at ten o'clock tomorrow, and we will talk about it again. ”
Ye Yuan threw down a business card, and then Shi Shiran left on foot.
