Chapter 415: Cleaning Fee
Chapter 415 Cleaning Fee
"Haha......" Zhang Han laughed, "It's delicious, isn't it?"
Meng Yi nodded vigorously, just swallowed the stinky tofu in his mouth, and put a piece of stinky tofu into his mouth again, there was no room to speak at all.
Zhang Han laughed again and said, "Boss, twenty servings of stinky tofu will be taken to the tavern over there."
Then he took out some handfuls of copper coins and handed them to the stall owner.
"Thank you, sir." When the stall owner saw the money, he knew that it was only a lot more, and immediately thanked him.
In fact, even if Zhang Han didn't give it, the stall owner didn't dare to say anything, but Zhang Han didn't think it was necessary.
Meng Yi ate stinky tofu and walked into the tavern with Zhang Han, and immediately smelled a lot of fragrances, not only the aroma of wine, but also the fragrance of various snacks, as well as the unique fragrance of stinky tofu.
The main thing is that there is no one in the tavern here to greet them, and if they want to drink, they go directly to the counter and ask for it, and then find their own seat.
"Why haven't I found such a good place before?" Meng Yi said.
"This is a tavern owned by the gentleman." Zhang Han said, "It's not so much a tavern as a bar.
It's for people like us to drink and chat during the day, and to relax a group of young people at night.
There is not only wine, but also fruits, snacks and most importantly, singing and dancing, and at night, the lights here are colorful, and there are also electric lights here, and there are beautiful women to help the fun, it is a man's paradise."
Meng Yi frowned slightly, and said, "How could Mr. open such a tavern, don't princesses come forward to stop it?"
"Why did you intervene to stop it? He didn't break the law in any way, but I think it's a good thing."
"Is that still a good thing?" Meng Yi looked at Zhang Han puzzled.
Zhang Han smiled and said, "Of course it's a good thing, I'll take you here in the evening."
"Well, I want to know what's so good here?" Meng Yi said.
"That's it, let's go to the counter and get a drink."
Immediately, Zhang Han took Meng Yi to the counter.
"Waiter, take out the wine I deposited."
When the waiter saw that it was Zhang Han, he immediately smiled and said, "General Zhang, please wait a moment."
After a while, a jar of fine wine was brought to the counter.
"General Zhang, this is what you didn't finish drinking last time, should I open it for you now, or should I get you a seat." The waiter asked.
"Get a seat and get us a big bowl and glasses." Zhang Han said.
"Okay."
Because there were not many people during the day, the waiter helped Zhang Han find a large table, and then put the wine, wine glasses and large bowls on the table.
Zhang Han took out five cents and handed it to the waiter, saying, "This is the cleaning fee, help me hand it over to the cleaning aunt."
"No." The waiter smiled and took the five cents.
After the waiter left, Meng Yi asked, "Why did you give him the money, isn't cleaning what a tavern should do?"
"You don't understand that, do you?" Zhang Han said, "Anyone can enter the tavern, and it's free, and you don't even have to spend a penny.
But if you want to sit at this table, or any other table, you'll have to pay for the cleaning because someone will clean the table for you.
Because the bar didn't charge you money, you stained the table, which was very inappropriate, so the gentleman asked some older people to help clean up.
The five cents are for them, and after we leave, we don't need to take care of this place, and naturally someone will help us clean it up."
"Then we can just put it away ourselves, so that the guests can't have an extra five cents." Meng Yi said.
"Hahaha......" Zhang Han laughed, "Someone once said that, but in the end they were slapped in the face.
The people who come here to drink, who don't do it to have fun and drink to their heart's content, who cares about small details such as cleaning.
If you don't clean up, or if you're complained by the next guest, you're not paying a mere penny.
What's more, who can come here, who will be reluctant to pay the five cents, even if the wine here, at least five cents a glass, and it's just beer,"
"Beer costs five cents a glass, sir, this is a robbery." Meng Yi was suddenly shocked.
Zhang Han rolled his eyes and said, "You let Mr. hear this, you can only say that you, a businessman, are very incompetent.
When the people are rich and have money, they have to take it out and spend it, not at home, which is very bad for the development of business.
When businessmen make money, they will expand their business, recruit people, raise wages, and the state will have higher taxes to collect.
If you think you're robbing money, it's because you're outside, but if you bring it to the village, it's just a bowl of noodles."
"A bowl of noodles in Xianyang City is sold for two cents now, and other places are worth one penny, why do you want five wen here, won't Mr. care about such a high price?"
"Why should you care, sir?" Zhang Han said, "It is best not to interfere with the price of the market, as long as the people can accept it, it means that there is no problem with this price."
And the price is also divided into affordable price and luxury price.
A rich man has a good face, the higher the price, the better, and he doesn't want to eat anything that is too cheap.
Even if we eat this stinky tofu, we eat three taels of silver for one penny, but a rich man can eat three taels of silver or thirty taels of silver for a piece."
"it." Meng Yi was so frightened that he said the quintessence of the country.
"They're crazy, it's just a piece of stinky tofu, do they need to waste it that much?"
"You don't understand this, the richer the people, the more they pay attention to the noodles, they say this stinky tofu, they will choose the best beans and grind it into tofu with the best water, and then use the best chef to make it into the most stinky stinky tofu.
Not only that, but the sauce used in stinky tofu is also top-notch, and to put it mildly, they eat even better than Your Majesty." Zhang Han said.
"Damn, it's disgusting that they dare to break the rules." Meng Yi said angrily.
"If that's what you're thinking, why do you make so much money?" Zhang Han said, "Mr. said that money earned is used for consumption, and if you don't consume, why do you need so much money for?
In ancient times, people only knew that saving money to buy land and then farming it did not benefit anything except to get a little grain every year.
Therefore, every year, after the imperial court only collected a little more grain tax, it did not get anything, and the treasury was naturally very empty.
But this money is used by the people to consume, so isn't it to promote business development?
Workers earn so much money to improve their lives.
Businessmen, they make so much money for enjoyment.
If you don't let the merchant enjoy, why should the merchant make so much money?"
