Chapter 10: Is It Too Much?
"Hey, what the hell are you doing?!"
A slightly shrill voice broke the silence in the restaurant, and it was a tall, thin male waiter with a pimple on his face who walked towards Qi Dong and them menacingly after speaking.
"What's wrong?" Chen Hao asked rhetorically.
"What are you doing with so many ingredients? Are you going to set up a stall?!" The waitress looked very angry, and the pimples on his face became brighter and redder.
"Isn't this a cafeteria?" Chen Hao asked rhetorically.
"Yes, this is the cafeteria, but you can't just waste food!" said the waitress glaring.
"How are you talking, where are we wasting food?" Chen Hao also seemed to be enraged, and his voice increased a lot.
"Hehe, look at how many ingredients other people took in a table of four people, what about you, two people took so much, can you finish eating?!" Seeing that Chen Hao was not convinced, the male waiter's voice raised a little more, "Anyway, there are regulations here, if you can't finish eating, you will be fined, and you will be fined 50 yuan per catty!"
"You guys really take a lot, this pile of meat looks like it's dozens of catties, and it's too wasteful to eat it. At this time, the chubby girl at the next table also spoke up, looking pained.
"Hehe, it's just two turtles, I think it's an uncle for a few dollars. If you don't have any money, eat at home, don't come out and be embarrassed!" said the girl with heavy makeup, her face full of disdain.
This sentence seemed to stimulate Chen Hao, and he immediately turned his head to look at the girl with heavy makeup, his eyes were like swords.
"Why, aren't you allowed to say this?" said the girl in heavy makeup, rolling her eyes.
"We can take whatever we want, you don't care. When we can't finish eating, it's not too late for you to accuse again!" After calming down his emotions, Chen Hao simply put down this sentence neatly, and then sat down in his seat and ignored others.
Qi Dong was the same, after sitting back in his seat, he poured a plate of shrimp and crabs into the hot pot, put a few slices of tenderloin on the frying pan, and sprinkled some oil on the meat.
The waiter saw that Qi Dong and Chen Hao no longer paid attention to him, but he had nowhere to attack, glanced at Qi Dong's table number and walked away.
With the entrance of the food, the unpleasantness just now was immediately left behind by Qi Dong.
Chen Hao was the same, his originally frowning brows had been stretched, and he kept blowing at a few meatballs in the spoon, and then put them in his mouth, with a pleasant look on his face.
The only thing that makes them unhappy is that since the opening of the meal, every diner in the restaurant will look at their table from time to time, curious, disdainful, angry, appreciative, all kinds of looks.
Although some of the diners had finished eating, they refused to get up and leave, leaning on their seats, drinking drinks while watching Qi Dong and them eat.
As time passed, the pile of meat on the tray gradually became smaller, and the two of them ate with their mouths full of oil and their heads were hot and sweaty.
Chen Hao suddenly became angry and went to the freezer to get two bottles of cold beer.
"Qi Dong, let's have two drinks to celebrate!" Chen Hao said as he opened the beer bottle.
"I'm allergic to alcohol, and I blush when I drink it, so forget it. Qi Dong said hesitantly.
"Alas, what's this, it's just the two of us, it's a pity not to drink so many dishes. After Chen Hao finished speaking, he poured Qi Dong a glass without saying anything.
"Here, let's have a drink!"
Seeing that Chen Hao was so enthusiastic, Qi Dong couldn't refuse, picked up the cup and touched it with Chen Hao, and then drank it all.
In this way, the two of them ate meat and drank wine, and before they knew it, two bottles of beer had been eaten.
"Qi Dong, you still said that you are allergic to alcohol, and you have drunk both bottles, and your face is not red yet. Chen Hao smiled, with a slight hint of blame in his tone.
"Huh, isn't it red?" Qi Dong said and reached out and touched his face, and sure enough, he didn't feel hot.
"It's weird, I used to have a drink during the Chinese New Year, and my face was as red as fire. Qi Dong also felt incredible, and hurriedly explained.
"Generally speaking, people who eat a lot of alcohol don't drink too much. Chen Hao obviously didn't believe it, and said with a playful expression.
After Qi Dong heard this, he seemed to suddenly have a comprehension. My food consumption has suddenly increased in the past two days, could it be that the amount of alcohol has also increased?
Still not convinced, he got up and went to the freezer to get two more beers to verify it.
Chen Hao looked at Qi Dong's actions, and was also a little stunned, and then laughed heartily, thinking that Qi Dong had figured it out.
The two drank two bottles of beer on the dish, and then Qi Dong found that Chen Hao's face was a little red. As for himself, he is still the same as before, his face is not hot, and his consciousness is very clear.
"Dongzi, it seems that the amount of alcohol you drink is directly proportional to the amount of food! Chen Hao said admiringly.
Hearing Chen Hao say this, Qi Dong was also convinced of this, although he couldn't talk about how happy he was, but it was not a bad thing to think that he drank a lot.
The two chatted while eating meat, and when they felt greasy, they ate some fruit or something, and soon the half-meter-high pile of meat was less than half.
As soon as Qi Dong put some shabu mutton and a few peeing cow balls into the hot pot, he saw a middle-aged oil-headed man in a suit and leather shoes walking towards their table, followed by the tall and thin male waiter just now.
"Xiao Wu, is it them?" When he was about to walk to Qi Dong's dining table, the middle-aged man turned around and asked the waiter.
Xiao Wu nodded respectfully.
"Hello, I'm the manager of this restaurant. When he walked to Qi Dong's table, the middle-aged man spoke.
"Oh, what's wrong?" Chen Hao asked with a blank expression.
"That's right, Xiao Wu told me just now that you took too many ingredients. The manager said, looking over the table.
"Too much, where is too much?" asked Chen Hao puzzled.
"That's right, our restaurant has a rule, and if you can't eat more than 200 grams of ingredients, you will be compensated at five times the original price. The manager seems to be quite patient, "This is partly to save ingredients, and on the other hand, to keep the restaurant from losing money." ”
"We'll finish eating!" Chen Hao said categorically, with a slight hint of impatience in his tone.
"However, I think the two of you do take a lot more ingredients than the average person, so I have some doubts, and I ask you to forgive me if you are offended. The manager still said gently, it seems that he can achieve the position of manager, and he is indeed excellent in dealing with people.
"Well, if you can't finish eating, we will definitely compensate according to the rules of the restaurant. Chen Hao saw the manager's kind face, and he also suppressed the anger in his heart.
"Well, that's the best, please keep using it slowly. The manager didn't leave, but walked around the restaurant, as if he was making a round.
"Hmph, that guy is still staring at us, for fear that we will run away!" Chen Hao said to Qi Dong with some resentment, "I knew that I wouldn't come to this restaurant to eat, and my attitude is so bad." ”
"Leave him alone, we'll eat our own. Qi Dong still looked indifferent, and as he spoke, he stuffed a cow ball into his mouth, and a stream of oil and water flowed down from the corner of his mouth.
Then the two of them stopped talking and began to eat wholeheartedly, and the ingredients on the tray decreased at an alarming rate.
The discussion in the restaurant gradually became louder, and many diners stopped their chopsticks and looked at the young man with a look of surprise.
"Wow, these two guys seem to be almost finished!"
"It's unbelievable, I think there are dozens of catties of that big piece of meat alone!"
"That's right, that piece of meat is worth a year's worth of Master Kong's beef noodles. ”
The manager was still hovering around the restaurant, his brow sometimes furrowed, sometimes locked, and the attentive person could see that the corners of his mouth would occasionally outline an imperceptible arc.
Finally, an hour later, the food on the table was eaten by Qi Dong and Chen Hao at all.
Qi Dong stood up, patted Wei Wei's belly, and gave a long burp. This was the most refreshing meal he had in half a year, and he was not only full, but also well-eaten.
The entire restaurant became silent again, and everyone looked at Qi Dong in unison, as if they were looking at two monsters.
After a short silence, someone actually took the lead in applauding, and after a while, the whole restaurant was in a hustle and bustle, with applause, whistles, and cheers.
Qi Dong was stunned, he didn't expect that he and Chen Hao would have this kind of effect.
"Everyone, we are eating live at 'Flying Fish' 30046, welcome to come and watch!" Chen Hao suddenly stood up and announced loudly.
Subsequently, Qi Dong could see that many people took out their mobile phones and recorded them.
The two of them didn't stay long, waving to the cheering diners as they walked out of the restaurant.
Just as they were about to walk out of the restaurant, the manager appeared in front of them again.
"Two little brothers, please stay, can we borrow a step to speak?"
"We've all finished eating, do we still have to pay a fine?" Chen Hao said angrily.
"No, no, you misunderstood. The manager was smiling.
After Qi Dong and Chen Hao heard this, they also breathed a sigh of relief. They then followed the manager to a back-of-house room.
"Two little brothers, I have a proposal, I wonder if you are interested?" said the manager a little mysteriously.
"Let's talk about it first. Chen Hao didn't seem to believe in this seemingly gentle manager.
"The two of you are really good food, I want to invite you to the cafeteria next door to eat, I have a treat. The manager said with a warm smile on his face.
When Qi Dong and Chen Hao heard this, they first looked at each other, and after thinking about it carefully, they really couldn't find any problems, so they agreed.
