Chapter 495 The Truth (Supplement 15)
After inviting Xu Tongdao and others into the private room, Jiang Meili turned around and ordered a waiter in the corridor: "Xiaoya! Go and call Mr. Zhang, and said that the distinguished guest he invited at noon was here, go quickly!"
"Oh, OK, boss lady."
After giving instructions, Jiang Meili returned to the box and regained her enthusiasm. She personally picked up the teapot and poured tea for Xu Tongdao, Tang Qing and Xi Dongyang.
He was still saying enthusiastically: "Come on! Mr. Xu, try it! This is the barley tea that your brother has recently obtained through his friend's relationship. Try it! It is said that it can clear heat and remove heat, and it can also scrape oil! Hehe."
Xu Tongdao was funny, how could he snatch the oil? How many women pursue their goals for life?
"Okay! Thank you sister-in-law."
He took the teacup that Jiang Meili gave him with both hands. Xu Tongdao sniffed it and indeed smelled the fragrance of wheat. The light yellow tea soup looked very beautiful. There were still a few barley in the tea soup.
"Not bad! Very fragrant!"
He praised politely, and he took a sip, a little disappointed, the taste was quite light, but the smile on his face became stronger, and he praised in a more sincere tone, "Well, it tastes good! Alas, Brother Xi, Tang Qing, you all taste it! It's really delicious!"
Xi Dongyang and Tang Qing, who were still too young, were obviously fooled.
When they heard Xu Tongdao praise this barley tea, both of them became interested.
They picked up teacups and tasted them.
The next moment.
Xi Dongyang: “…”
Tang Qing: “…”
But, everyone is a social person, who is not an acting school?
A faint smile appeared on Xi Dongyang's face, "Well, it's good!"
Tang Qing also had a "sincere" smile on his face, and he praised: "I have grown up so old and I have never drunk such delicious barley tea! It's really delicious!"
Xu Tongdao looked at her suspiciously, wondering if this was the first time she drank barley tea since she was a child?
Tongdao Xu, who didn't want to continue flattering against his will, decided to change the topic, "Hey, sister-in-law! You and Brother Zhiweixuan are open well, why are you suddenly interested in the hot pot restaurant? Do you two really want to join my hot pot restaurant?"
Jiang Meili sat down next to Xu Tongdao, hearing this, smiling and asked, "Do you want to hear the truth? Or do you lie?"
Before Zhang Cheng came to the private room, Xu Tongdao needed to pass the time, so he said with interest: "Sister-in-law, you tell lies first! Let's listen."
Jiang Meili: "Like lies! Like lies means that our Zhiweixuan is not doing business well, so your brother and I are thinking about joining your hotpot restaurant and trying to find out if we don't put the eggs in the same basket! Isn't it?"
Is this a lie?
Is it a lie?
Xu Tongdao was a little suspicious, of course, he couldn't really express suspicion.
"What about the truth?"
Jiang Meili chuckled, "Truth! Um... there are several reasons! One is that after my brother Sheng and I went to your hot pot restaurant last time, I always thought that your hot pot tasted very well. To be honest, my brother Sheng and I have visited you several times in the past two months. It's really delicious!"
After hearing this, Xu Tongdao smiled and bowed to her, expressing his gratitude for taking care of his business.
"What about two?" he asked.
Jiang Meili: "Second, there is a franchise store that you have officially opened recently, right? That franchisee, you brother and I know each other. On the day of opening, your brother and I went to send a flower basket to congratulate you! The business there is so good, really! So, hehe, your brother and I were moved."
Jiang Meili said this very calmly.
Xu Tongdao was so calm that he admired him.
This is obviously a very realistic and utilitarian reason, but she said it so calmly. It is precisely because she said it calmly that her words not only do not make people disgusted, but instead make people admire her frankness.
"Is there three more?"
Xu Tongdao asked again.
Jiang Meili chuckled and shook her head. At this moment, the door of the private room was pushed open, and Zhang wearing a black tweed coat came in from outside.
As soon as he came in, he closed the door casually, and took off his coat and asked with a smile: "What three are you talking about?"
Before anyone could answer the conversation, he sighed: "Well, it's better to be warm in the private room, or to have empty space! It's so cold outside!"
"There are so many hot stoves in the kitchen, so it shouldn't be cold, right?"
Xu Tongdao asked in confusion.
Jiang Meili: "We just talked about Chen Laosi's hot pot restaurant! Mr. Xu just asked us why we suddenly wanted to join his hot pot restaurant. Haha, I told him two reasons: true or false. I just mentioned Chen Laosi's hot pot restaurant. Well, this is the second reason I told him. He just asked me if there is a third reason. Before I could answer, aren't you just coming in now?"
After listening, Zhang laughed.
"Oh, Chen Laosi's hot pot restaurant! That guy has been very proud recently. He has been doing a franchise store very well. When I came to my place to drink yesterday, I joked that I have been doing catering for so many years, but the business here is actually not as good as that of his hot pot franchise store! Hey! I'm so angry when I talk about this!"
After a pause, Zhang Sheng answered Xu Tongdao’s question just now, "Oh! Xiao Xu! Brother, I won’t hide it from you. It’s cold now, and many people are going to eat hot pot. There are fewer and fewer people coming to our place to eat Chinese food. At this time, there are not many stoves in the kitchen! If the stove is less, it will be cold in the kitchen!"
After saying that, he sighed again.
Xu Tongdao subconsciously glanced at Jiang Meili beside him.
Jiang Meili's expression was a little awkward.
Because Xu Tongdao just asked her the reason for wanting to join Ximen Yipin Hotpot Restaurant, when she mentioned the false reason, she mentioned that Zhiweixuan’s business has been bad recently.
But what Zhang just happened to happen is obviously inconsistent with her false reason just now.
Holding back the smile, Xu Tongdao greeted Zhang to sit down.
Jiang Meili, who was eager to get rid of the embarrassment, changed the topic: "Asheng, did you come from the kitchen just now and asked them to serve the dishes immediately? If you forget to say it, I'll give you some instructions!"
As she said that, she was about to get up.
Zhang Sheng raised his hand to stop him, "You don't have to go! I said just now, come on! I'll pour wine for everyone first, and the dishes will come up soon!"
As he said that, he draped his newly taken tweed coat on the back of the chair and stepped forward to grab the Moutai wine on the table.
Open the wine bottle and pour wine.
A glass of wine was filled with everyone. As soon as the bottle was put down, the door of the box was knocked and opened. Three waiters entered one after another, each holding a plastic tray in his hand.
There are dishes on the tray.
Hot steam.
The fragrance is everywhere.
The appearance is also very good, but even in such a cold season, these dishes are still inferior to the attractiveness of hot pot to customers.
Knowing that Zhiweixuan’s business is not good recently, Zhang Sheng and Jiang Meili want to transform, Xu Tongdao is already at ease.
Chapter completed!
