Chapter 264 Don't Want to Break Out

Three days later, early in the morning, Ling Zhengyang sat at the counter.

This action surprised Wang De, who was familiar with Ling Zhengyang's personality, and also made him feel uneasy all morning, afraid that he would do something wrong to make Ling Zhengyang angry.

In Wang De's memory, Ling Zhengyang never sat on the counter no matter which Fenglin restaurant Ling Zhengyang went to. In his words, only the shopkeeper could sit on the counter at every restaurant, which symbolizes the authority of the shopkeeper.

The authority of the shopkeeper cannot be shaken. Only with absolutely authoritative shopkeepers can the client and the chef convince them.

But today, Ling Zhengyang sat at the counter.

It is so abnormal that if you really do something wrong, it is hard to guarantee that the Third Young Master will not change his past style of tolerant and generous behavior as long as he has not betrayed the restaurant, and will do any harsh punishments to himself.

The rising sun is rising, like a young and promising young man. The sharpness and light on his body are becoming more and more intense as he rises steadily.

The rapid sound of horse hooves suddenly moved from far away, and Ling Zhengyang's body couldn't help but straighten a little at the counter.

For a moment, Jiang Youcai, who had been guarding the door, walked in quickly, and behind him was a panting and sweating man.

Ling Zhengyang couldn't help but stand up and asked, "Have you issued a notice in Linji Inn?"

"Out, come out." The guy nodded gasping.

"What is the notice?" Ling Zhengyang asked.

The guy licked his chapped lips, endured the hotness of his throat, and explained: "The discount is still a discount for three days, and the price of the wine and food is exactly the same as the previous few days."

Ling Zhengyang suddenly smiled bitterly.

"Three Young Master, what does Lin Dong mean?" Jiang Youcai and the second monk were confused. Since it was the same, why should we set a limit of three days that day? Doing this may lead to many high-quality customers thinking that Lin Ji Inn will raise the price the next day, so they do not intend to come to the door.

"Lin Dong, this is hanging us with announcements. Three days and three days, I plan to let us wait forever." Ling Zhengyang said quietly: "If you guessed correctly, Lin Ji Inn might have notified those high-profile customers yesterday, and today it is still the same."

"At their price of wine and food, a large number of high-quality customers come to their doors, and at least one table can lose more than ten or twenty taels of silver. After a day, there is no need to pay for the silver. Since he wants to lose so much money every day, it is better to let him lose to the end." Jiang Youcai said angrily: "The news of the Business Association is over, and Linji Inn will be sealed. The news of the Business Association is over, and the major restaurants will also take back their respective chefs. Linji Inn can't make third-level and fourth-level spiritual beasts. In just two or three months, it has been a few big families in Qiufeng City who have the most number of wines and banquets in our Fenglin Restaurant, and they will be completely retained by Linji Inn in two or three months. No matter which one, Linji Inn will have any losses but no profit."

"Lin Dong, I guess this is what I want." Ling Zhengyang shook his head slowly. These three results seemed almost certain. If it were before Lin Ji Inn launched the signature dishes of major restaurants, he also thought so.

But now, he dare not think so...

What is certain is useless to Linji Inn and Lin Dong.

By making up the news of the Business Association, maybe Lin Dong has made friends with a certain imperial official through Li Jiancheng and can suppress the matter. The chefs of major restaurants, perhaps Lin Dong has a way to make them betray their respective restaurants and serve Lin Ji Inn. All the Haokes are regular customers of Fenglin Restaurant, maybe Lin Dong has any unexpected backhand behind him that can keep people alive.

It seems that these possibilities are so low that it is unbelievable, but by fabricating news from the business association and launching signature dishes from major restaurants, Ling Zhengyang has already seen Lin Dong’s surprise. He believes that Lin Dong is definitely not a lunatic, and there must be solutions, but he can’t imagine it.

"San Young Master, since we don't plan to let Linji Inn continue like this, what should we do?" Jiang Youcai asked.

"Go down and rest for a few hours first, and then continue to go to Linji Inn to inquire about the news." Ling Zhengyang waved to the guy who was still a little panting. After he left, he pondered: "You can't follow Lin Dong's rhythm anymore. Take the third and fourth-level spiritual beasts and raise the price for me."

"Our third and fourth-level spiritual beasts are sent from Lingnan County. If we collect them in Qiufeng City and deliberately raise prices, it means we have to spend a lot of money." Jiang Youcai said anxiously: "And since Lin Dong has something to do with the sect, he should be able to collect spiritual beasts through the sect."

"What is the current situation of the first and second-level spiritual beasts and spiritual materials?" Ling Zhengyang asked.

"Since the joint efforts of major restaurants, they have been working together to lower the price, and now they have almost fallen back to about three times the previous price." Jiang Youcai replied.

"How many first and second-level spirit beasts are in stock?"

"There are already sixty or seventy thousand taels of silver in stock."

"Carry at the original price for the time being. I believe that those who have spiritual beasts on hand cannot stand the price drop in a short period of time. Most of them should be kept for a while." Ling Zhengyang said lightly: "As for the sect, according to common sense, no matter what, it is not necessary to send disciples to collect spiritual materials and hunt spirit beasts for a secular businessman."

Jiang Youcai slapped his forehead: "Look at my head, Lin Ji Inn can get spiritual materials that are almost volatile from the sect. As long as you are familiar with the outer sect managers. If you want the sect to mobilize a large number of disciples to help collect spiritual materials and hunt spirit beasts, you may at least have to have a close relationship with the elders. Our Fenglin Restaurant has only such friendship with several sects in total, so Lin Dong has no such ability."

Ling Zhengyang smiled indifferently: "Lin Dong, this is what he wants. The more impossible he can do it."

Jiang Youcai was speechless and after a while, he said angrily: "Then our Fenglin Restaurant collects third and fourth-level spiritual beasts and raises the price, isn't it just his wish?"

"It's just a cover." Ling Zhengyang said lightly: "Before the evening, I'll give me a detailed information about major restaurants."

"Detailed information about major restaurants?" Jiang Youcai wanted to speak but stopped.

"What you gave me before was not detailed." Ling Zhengyang said with a bright look: "I want the most detailed ones, including the age, personality, experience, industry, and family... If you have time, you can detail the personalities of the maids and servants in their house."

Jiang Youcai was shocked and said in surprise: "San Young Master, you are planning..."

"At the same time, we can compete with Linji Inn and major restaurants. Even if we can delay the launch of the business association, they can also delay the time. At that time, not only will the number of large diners in Fenglin Restaurant not increase much, but the number of high-end customers has been snatched away by Linji Inn. Even if Linji Inn did not achieve the purpose of defeating Fenglin Restaurant, we would also lose a lot." Ling Zhengyang clenched his right fist and said in a deep voice: "If you want to win Linji Inn, the only weakness is that of major restaurants. Linji Inn is stronger than us, because the strength of the major restaurants is all concentrated on Linji Inn."

Jiang Youcai said with a look of distress: "But they have reached an agreement now, and I believe there will be huge compensation for violating the agreement. Not to mention that all major restaurants have broken the contract, one or two will probably have to spend a lot of money."

"One of them has increased and the other has decreased. If we can get a restaurant into our camp, we will be a little stronger, while Linji Inn is a little weaker."

"But the price is too high." Jiang Youcai couldn't help but retort: ​​"And, the silver may have flowed into Linji Inn, which will only give him more capital."

"The bigger the, the more unexpected it is." Ling Zhengyang said calmly: "Since Lin Dong can spend hundreds of thousands of taels of silver to borrow more than 20 cooks, why can't I give them hundreds of thousands of taels of silver to exchange for several restaurants and join forces with Fenglin Restaurant? No matter what, strength is the most important thing. No matter how much money is, like us, we can't even get a 20% discount on Linji Inn. What's the use of?"

Jiang Youcai gritted his teeth and nodded slowly.

In the corner of the second floor of Linji Inn, Lin Dong couldn't help but feel happy after learning that Fenglin Restaurant had purchased first- and second-level spiritual beast spirit materials and high-level spiritual beast spirit materials.

Ma Chun scratched his head and said in confusion: "Why does the shopkeeper seem to be very happy? This doesn't seem to be a good thing. Judging from the current business on the third floor, it may not take long for the disciples of the Gu Huan Sect and Wanjiazhuang to provide us with the third and fourth-level spiritual materials will not be enough..."

"It's okay, it's just a cover." Lin Dong stretched out his index finger and middle finger without caring, hooked it a few times, and said leisurely: "Since the nose of Fenglin Restaurant has been hooked in my hand, it's not that easy to take off without any earth-shaking means."

"Pret?" Ma Chun was confused.

"I believe that in the future, Fenglin Restaurant will stop collecting it." Lin Dong smiled and said, "To be honest, I have to thank Fenglin Restaurant for the price of first- and second-level spiritual beasts and spiritual materials, and the pressure on major restaurants will definitely be reduced a lot."

"I'm afraid that so many will fall out at once, so everyone will hold it in their hands to see the situation." Ma Chun shook his head and said, "After all, as long as we are still fighting, the price will be possible. Although the storage time of spiritual beast meat is shorter, as long as it is kept in the sun, it should not be a problem to store it for six or seven days. The time for spiritual materials to be stored will be longer."

"Will you slow down the price?" Lin Dong suddenly laughed: "The original price of Fenglin Restaurant is collected, why should the original price of major restaurants be collected? You have to know that now we are holding Fenglin Restaurant's nose."

Ma Chun slapped his head and said embarrassedly: "When you are with the shopkeeper, you don't have to think about anything, your head is almost like a lump. If Fenglin Restaurant has no inventory, we can even raise the price and force them to raise the price."

"You just think it through. Once you think it through, you will understand that we have already seized the opportunity by making up news from the business association. The rest only needs to beat it to death, and it can only block it with all the beatings." Lin Dong smiled and said, "If you hit someone, you only need to consider whether the strength of the fist is strong. If you are beaten, you have to think about where the other party will hit, how much strength can you block it, and how to fight back... Just like the Fenglin Restaurant a few months ago, we have to block wherever it hits."

Ma Chun looked deep and said with a glimpse of his eyes: "No matter what tricks Ling Zhengyang plays, we just need to study the strength of our fists thoroughly. No matter how many tricks he has, it is enough to beat him with one punch so that he doesn't have the chance to use these tricks?"

Lin Dong touched his chin, and it seemed that this statement was a little more thorough than he understood.
