Chapter 18 The general manager also listened to Chen Jie's words
"There are at least 10 million villas in Panlong Mountain, Sister Mengdie, do you think I definitely don't have the money to buy such a mansion. You think I'm absolutely bragging, aren't you? β
Chen Jie winked at Li Mengdie.
Li Mengdie originally wanted to nod yes and accuse him.
However, she still couldn't bear to hit him, so she changed the subject:
"Chen Jie, I'm hungry, do you have anything to eat here?"
Chen Jie shook his head and said:
"I don't cook at home, I eat outside. I'll take you out to eat. β
Li Mengdie said:
"Going out for fast food? I don't want to eat. Why don't I buy groceries and come back to cook? β
Chen Jie smiled and said:
"That's too much trouble. Let's go out and eat. It's not about fast food, it's about going to the newly opened Jiangwan Hotel. β
Li Mengdie asked in surprise:
"You mean the newly opened three-star underwater hotel? There were so many people there that I had to wait in line for half a day. And consumption is expensive. That's the kind of place we can't afford. β
It turned out that the Jiangwan Hotel, which was originally an ordinary hotel by the river, belonged to the Li family's industry, but because of poor management, the business had been in a loss-making state and was on the verge of closing.
But more than half a month ago, the Bay Hotel was suddenly acquired by a mysterious rich man, and a new general manager was hired to renovate and decorate the hotel inside and out, making it the first underwater restaurant in Mozhou City.
It's just a hot summer day, and it's cool and pleasant to eat under the water of the Mojiang River!
And the Bay Hotel has just reopened, and in order to make a name for itself, all purchases are discounted!
So now the hotel is overcrowded, and there are usually more than a dozen groups of people waiting in line for dinner.
Although it is now newly opened, the consumption can be discounted by 5%, but the minimum consumption is still more than 1,000.
For Li Mengdie, more than 1,000 yuan for a meal is already too luxurious.
Chen Jie smiled and said:
"Don't worry, Sister Mengdie, let's go there to eat, we don't have to queue, and we don't have to give money."
Li Mengdie couldn't help but probe his forehead with her hand, and said suspiciously:
"Chen Jie, you don't have a fever, and your head is not confused. Why such unrealistic words? β
Chen Jie said:
"Aren't you hungry? Don't say so much. If you want to eat, come with me. β
β¦β¦
When they came to the Jiangwan Hotel, they found that there were a lot of people queuing, from the gate to the main road.
The minimum number of people waiting in line for a meal is more than 50 people. The police even sent two police officers to maintain order at the scene.
Because of the limited number of seats, the people in line waited impatiently and looked at the hotel with indignant eyes.
It turns out that some people don't have to wait in line at all when they come. There will be a waiter who will lead them in directly and arrange their seats.
Seeing that these people were privileged, the people in line were quite resentful, but they were also helpless.
Because those people who don't have to queue up are all members of the Li family, or their relatives and friends!
This hotel was originally owned by the Li family, but was later acquired by the mysterious owner through a middleman. But in addition to the general manager, the important positions in the hotel are still occupied by the Li family.
The people who are eating are basically people from the Li family, or their relatives and friends!
Whenever a person from the Li family comes and reports his name and ID number, he can arrange a place directly without queuing!
The people in line are secretly dissatisfied, thinking that these people are engaging in privileges.
The people of the Li family were very proud, feeling that they were superior in the hotel, and their hearts were full of superiority.
β¦β¦
"Chen Jie, forget it, let's go back. There are so many people here that we won't be able to wait in line until tomorrow. β
Li Mengdie looked at the long queue and sighed.
"It's all said, we don't have to queue up."
Chen Jie pulled Li Mengdie and walked directly to the front of the long dragon.
"Chen Jie, you poor man, you have to line up if you want to eat!"
"The minimum consumption here is more than 1,000 yuan. Chen Jie, do you have the money to eat here? β
Accusations and ridicule erupted from the ranks.
Hundreds of people were waiting in line for dinner, and several of them knew Chen Jie, all of whom were students in the same class as Chen Jie.
Chen Jie used to study at Mozhou No. 1 Middle School, but after his parents died in a car accident, he stopped reading for a few months.
He was also notoriously poor at school.
For a few months after his parents died, he couldn't afford to eat, and his three meals a day often consisted of white rice, or steamed buns with boiling water.
In order not to be ridiculed by the students, he had to hide every time he ate, but he was bumped into several times.
even invited his fiancΓ©e Li Xuefei to dinner, all of which were instant noodles.
Soon, his reputation as a poor ghost spread throughout the school.
β¦β¦
Among the people who ate, Li Teng, Li Xuefei and Wang Yuanlong were all there.
As soon as Li Xuefei and Wang Yuanlong saw Chen Jie, they couldn't help frowning.
She and Wang Yuanlong are both dressed very expensively, coupled with their outstanding appearance, they have a faint aristocratic temperament, which is very eye-catching.
Li Xuefei was wearing a white dress, with a slender and delicate body, which was more curvy.
Wang Yuanlong is in a silver casual suit, with the elegance and freedom of a royal nobleman.
He is the eldest of the Wang family and the future heir of the family. He has excellent grades in school, is still the captain of basketball, and is handsome, and many girls want to chase him!
The two of them can be called talented women, golden boys and girls!
They all attracted the attention of a large number of young men and women.
Several boys and girls secretly have a love for them!
In the waves of admiring eyes, Li Xuefei and Wang Yuanlong became the focus of the audience, standing out from the crowd!
But Chen Jie's arrival ruined the atmosphere of the scene.
"Look! That waste Chen Jie used to be Li Xuefei's fiancΓ©! β
"Just by him, he also wants to marry Li Xuefei? It's really a toad that wants to eat swan meat......"
"Li Xuefei, with Wang Yuanlong, is the golden boy and jade girl, a natural pair!"
Many people are whispering about it.
Li Xuefei and Wang Yuanlong both felt that their mood for eating had been ruined.
Where they ate, Chen Jie actually appeared!
Li Xuefei became more and more unhappy, so she gave Li Teng a look.
Li Teng immediately stood up and shouted at Chen Jie:
"Chen Jie, what are you going to do? You are not welcome in our hotel, get out of here! Don't affect Lao Tzu's mood when eating! β
Li Mengdie was taken aback by him, and hurriedly pulled Chen Jie and said:
"Chen Jie, let's go and go somewhere else. This is their Li family's hotel. We are not welcomed. β
The rest of the Li family also looked at them with disgust:
"Poor goods, don't say that the consumption here is high, you can't afford it. Even if you have money, our Li family won't let you in! Queuing doesn't work either! β
Chen Jie said coldly: "Your Li family, are you all so arrogant and domineering? You own this hotel? Do I need your approval to eat? β
When those people in the Li family heard this, they all laughed.
Even the people in line, many of them laughed out loud.
"That's right, this hotel was originally our Li family, and our Li family has the privilege of not allowing you to eat here!"
Li Teng said with a sneer.
"Poor ghost, get out!"
The people in the Li family all cursed one after another.
Li Mengdie's attitude towards them was very angry, but she couldn't help them, so she had to pull Chen Jie and prepare to pull him away.
But Chen Jie stood very firmly at the gate of the hotel and said loudly:
"As far as I know, this hotel has been completely acquired. Although the important management positions are still occupied by the Li family, they are only part-time jobs. It doesn't mean that this hotel is still your Li family! β
When the people of the Li family heard this, they all showed embarrassment!
Li Teng shouted angrily:
"Even if this hotel is not our Li family, the deputy general manager is our Li family. I can get the VP over right now and kick you out!" β
Chen Jie said coldly:
"Vice President? Where did he get the power to drive away a guest for no reason? β
Li Xuefei raised her chin and said to him:
"Chen Jie, don't mess around here. You can choose to leave with dignity so that you don't get kicked out by our people! β
Chen Jie sneered and said word by word:
"Li Xuefei, the person who is going to be kicked out today is not me, but you, all the people of the Li family! Because, you have affected my mood to eat! β
Before he could finish his sentence, there was a lot of laughter.
"This man has a sick brain, right? actually said that he wanted to get rid of the Li family? β
"I think he's a little out of sorts! Dressed like that, do you have the money to eat here? β
Li Xuefei even suspected that she had misheard, and sneered and said:
"Chen Jie, you said you want to kick us out? Why are you? β
Chen Jie said: "No! I just think that the general manager here will definitely listen to me and drive out all the people of your Li family! β
