172. Lemon Blue Mountain
The next day, an equally busy day.
Ming Tsai is in charge of making the drinks, I am in charge of ordering, and Xiaohua is in charge of delivering the order to the seat.
Xiaohua hurriedly stood by the bar and gossiped to me: "Boss, that handsome guy came again last night." Without waiting for me to speak, Ming Tsai first scolded: "Is there anyone in your eyes who is not a handsome guy?" ”
Xiaohuapi replied with a smile: "Of course there is, don't worry, in my eyes, you are definitely not." ”
Ming Tsai: "That's because you have a problem with your eyes." ”
I was accustomed to the matinee exchange between the two men, shrugged my shoulders, and walked into the rest room when the afternoon would be a rare time to spare. When I entered the door, I didn't feel that my hands and feet were light, and Mi Li was too bored to fall asleep in the chair.
I carefully lifted him to the bed, covered him with the quilt again, and turned my gaze to the half-formed Lego bricks on the table, this time on a warship, basically a silhouette.
Suddenly I heard an argument outside the lounge, and I frowned and immediately got up and walked out.
It is inevitable that there will be disputes with customers, and there will always be one or two people who will be difficult to communicate, but it has never developed into a fight. As soon as I walked out of the lounge, I saw Ming Tsai being punched by a reckless man from outside the bar, knocking the person he had beaten backwards, hitting the drink counter and nearly knocking over the tea keg.
At the same time, it was accompanied by the exclamations of customers, as well as the exclamations of Xiaohua.
Ming Tsai is a young man with strong blood, where can he hold this breath, and after standing firmly, he rushed out of the bar. I stepped forward to block his way, stared at him with a slightly dull gaze, turned back to the reckless man and rebuked: "This gentleman, if you have something to say, why do you need to do it? ”
"Say what? How do you do business? I've already paid for your drinks, and I've been making people wait, and the people who are at the back of the line before me get them, isn't this intentional bullying? ”
Without waiting for me to ask, Xiaohua explained: "No, that little brother is a takeaway, and his list is ahead of yours, so we gave it to him first in order to take it." ”
"I don't care, anyway, I was here to pay the bill first, so you have to give me the drink first."
Ming Tsai was angry and yelled behind me: "Then you can't hit people." ”
The reckless man became even angrier, raised his chin and pointed at the bar: "What's wrong with beating you?" Lao Tzu saw that you were not pleasing to the eye and beat you. As soon as the words fell, another fist swung in, and I was still standing in the middle of them, and I saw that the fist was about to swing in front of me, when suddenly a figure blocked in and obscured my vision.
I couldn't see what was happening in front of me, I only heard the clattering of the high chairs by the bar, and then I saw the reckless man fall out.
"You...... Who are you? The reckless man asked angrily on the ground.
I took a step to the side and saw the side face of the person in front of me, and my eyebrows couldn't help frowning, why did he come again?
It wasn't the same as the one I wore when I came here last night, and the light gray shirt wasn't all tucked into the pants, but the corner of the shirt was on the outside. Maybe it's because I moved my hand just now, and my arms are obviously lazy but exposed, with muscular tension.
He suddenly turned his eyes back to meet me, and asked in a deep voice, "Don't you call the police?" ”
I was slightly stunned, and when I reacted to touch my phone, I heard Xiaohua whisper behind me: "Boss, I have just called the police." ”
The police station was on the street, and soon the police came to deal with it.
In the end, not many people can be calm enough to drink drinks and chat while the police are questioning, so the customers in the store quickly left, and the only ones left were the parties.
The reckless man didn't come alone, he brought his wife and children, and the children were only five or six years old, and they were girls.
After mediation, the reckless man's wife apologized to Ming Tsai on his behalf and offered to compensate for the loss in my store. In the end, I didn't ask them for compensation, and there was nothing to lose except that the business was deserted.
After the reckless couple left the store with their children, the police also retreated, and the store was deserted.
Ming Tsai was punched in the face by a reckless man and was already swollen, so I asked him to go to the hospital to rub the medicine, and gave him and Xiaohua a vacation. Although the small long vacation business is several times as usual, I am not the boss who treats employees harshly.
Xiaohua took the bag and asked me before leaving: "Boss, what should I do if the handsome guy hasn't left yet?" ”
I glanced at the back of the person sitting against the window, and said in a slight silence: "I can handle your boss." ”
Xiaohua smiled ambiguously when she heard this: "Understand, I'll go with Ming Tsai." ”
I couldn't help but smile wryly when I saw the two of them walking briskly, I mean the instruments in the bar can be operated, and no matter what drink you order, you can handle it.
I went to the door of the lounge and took a look, and made sure that Mi Li was still sleeping in it and was not woken up before walking over slowly.
"Is there something looking for me?" I pondered my mind and asked straight to the point.
The dark eyes that had been looking down to read the magazine were raised, and those eyes were dark and quiet, as deep as a reef in the low sea.
His legs were casually folded, and he wore a black blazer on the back of his chair. As I looked back, I heard him say, "Sit." The tone was like a director inviting guests.
I raised my eyebrows, is it the role reversed?
After sitting down, he was relatively speechless, remembering the ruthlessness of defeating the reckless man just now, it seemed that there was a great way out of his current state.
"Are you always so sloppy?"
A sudden burst of doubt interrupted my distraction, but I didn't know where he had started.
After a pause, he said: "I encountered a similar situation at the airport the day before yesterday, and today it is again, it seems that you are always in a situation, but you can't learn to make reasonable judgments and responses." ”
"Dare to ask," I took a deep breath and said softly, "what is reasonable judgment and response?" ”
"Measuring the opponent's attack power in advance is the first judgment, but how much do you think you can withstand when a man's fist hits you? Isn't the first reaction after weighing the strength of both sides be to call the police? How can you react more slowly than your employees? ”
Squinted slightly, and responded lightly: "Sir, this is just your subjective idea, it doesn't mean that others think the same way." ”
With dark eyes staring at him, he said, "My name is Zhou Yu." ”
My heart skipped a beat, for those two words.
After a moment of silence, he changed the topic: "I heard Yang Jing say that the new drink in your store is good, can you make a drink for me?" ”
Five minutes later, I delivered the cup to him.
He asked, "What's its name?" ”
"Lemon Blue Mountain."
The eyebrows furrowed, and there was more repulsion in his tone: "I don't drink coffee, help me change to something else." ”
I glanced at the milky coffee-colored liquid in the cup, "It's not coffee." ”
The finger-bony hand picked up the cup to his mouth and took a sip, as if he tasted the taste, and when he looked up again, there was dissatisfaction in his eyes: "There is obviously the taste of the Blue Mountain." ”
I replied with a blank face: "Didn't you say you don't drink coffee, how do you know the taste of the Blue Mountains?" ”
"If you don't drink it, it doesn't mean you've never drunk it, it seems that you are not an honest businessman."
After staring at the liquid in the cup for a moment, I got up, "Honest or not, come and see how I make the drink." ”
When I walked to the bar, I saw him coming with me, and I really wanted to see how I operated...... When I pushed another glass of Lemon Blue Mountain onto the bar, he paused and picked it up.
This time he took two sips and put down his glass and said, "It's just that you're opportunistic." ”
I raised an eyebrow, turned around and walked over to the machine and began to mix again, showing him as many ingredients as I could, and when another drink was delivered to him, I called it by name: "Pink Latte." ”
He glanced down and picked up his glass again. When I saw him take a sip, I asked, "Does it smell like a latte?" Oh yes, and I'll have to ask if you've ever drunk a latte. ”
"Drunk." He actually replied in a matter-of-fact manner, and then asked, "Are you all selling dog meat on the head of a sheep here?" ”
I paused, and actually nodded, "That's right, as long as the customer likes it, there's nothing bad about it." ”
"Then whatever flavor of coffee, have a cup."
I put down my cup instead of his proposal, "I'm sorry, it's a small business, and our store only orders and pays for drinks before it comes out, and it doesn't take credit." He raised his eyebrows when he heard this, "Then you settle the account, how much does it cost to have a drink of every drink?" ”
A cup of each? There are more than 20 flavors in total.
I looked at him with a smirk, "You can't be a spy sent by someone else to steal my secret recipe?" Sorry, but we have a maximum of three drinks per customer per day, and today you will only have one share. ”
"Three a day? You have a lot of rules. After he commented, he casually threw a sentence: "Then let's have ten cups of each of these three, there should be no limit to the number of cups, right?" ”
I narrowed my eyes slightly, "Can you drink it?" "Ten cups of each of the three flavors is thirty cups.
He replied to me, "You don't have to worry about that. ”
The card was swiped, and the two cups I transferred to him on the bar were a total of 32 cups, a total of 480 yuan.
After that, he also said intentionally: "Don't say I'm going to steal the secret recipe in your store, I'll go sit there now, and tell me when you're all done." You don't have to open it, just pack it all and take it away. ”
Looking at the lonely figure, I couldn't help but feel the urge to grind my teeth, he did it on purpose.
Thirty drinks is not too difficult, especially if there are more cups of the same type and can be made together, but the pre-prepared oolong tea in the tea barrel is not enough, and I have to make another large vat.
It is easier to take down an empty bucket, but it is a little difficult to send it to a full bucket. In the past, this work was done by Ming Tsai, he has more strength and is taller, not as hard as me to move.
Originally, the toes were about to be delivered to the position, and suddenly there was a cry of rice grains behind him: "Mom! With a shake of my hand, a bucket of oolong tea poured down in front of me, and there was a loud bang, and the bar was in a mess......
"Did it hurt?" The voice of inquiry was already behind him.
Fortunately, after brewing most of the oolong tea in boiling water, I added some cold water to neutralize it, otherwise it would not only be a mess in the bar. However, in the end, the water temperature is still seventy or eighty degrees, and it feels hot when splashed on my feet.
The main thing was that the barrel fell down for a split second, and I only had time to take a step back to avoid it, but my right foot was smashed squarely.
Dozens of pounds of water bucket smashed up, and it immediately hurt so much that I was unconscious.
But my attention was not here, the rice grains by the door of the lounge were so frightened that they couldn't speak, and tears were flowing. I shouted urgently: "Mi Li, mom is fine, don't be afraid." ”
I want to go over to calm the child's emotions, but my right foot hurts so much that it is difficult to move a step. Turning his head, he whispered to him who was still standing outside the bar: "Go and see the rice!" ”
