C65 It Feels like a Good Plateau
San Diego's business is booming.
When Gaoyuan brought Ding Rui and the others to the hall, there were no empty seats in the hall. There were ten guests waiting in the waiting area.
The queuing machine showed that they needed to wait for at least half an hour before there would be seats.
"I'll talk to the manager and see if we can add some money. Arrange a seat for us first." Liu Hong could not sit still anymore. She was hungry the moment she arrived. Second of all, in their county town, Liu Hong was also a "upper-class person." She had never waited for food in a restaurant.
"Mom, forget it. Let's wait here," Ding Rui advised. San Diego was a famous restaurant in Jinling. How could her mother convince her?
"What do you mean forget it? Sit down. I'll go by myself." Liu Hong did not take her daughter seriously. She felt that in the county... She was also a figure with a high reputation. With her glib tongue, she said it. She gave some money and asked the manager to give them a position first. It shouldn't be a problem.
Through the front desk, Liu Hong quickly saw the manager and said it clearly. She wanted to give 500 more yuan and let the manager arrange a seat for her first. However, the manager did not fall for her tricks at all. She was in such a big hotel, was she short of 500 yuan?
In the end, Liu Hong got hit by a soft nail and returned it without any face.
"Auntie, you sit here. I will go and talk." Gaoyuan stood up and said. Ding Rui and the rest had seen Liu Hong "helpless" in front of the manager. They naturally could not ignore it. Otherwise, Ding Rui, Li Na, and Feng Youlan would definitely scold him in their hearts for being useless. His mother-in-law was humiliated so badly that he did not even dare to fart.
With that, Gaoyuan walked towards the manager. He was also very nervous. He was just a little rich second generation. Would others give him face?
However, he still had a glimmer of hope in his heart. He had heard from his father that he had interacted with the manager of San Diego a few times. He didn't know how deep their friendship was.
Now that he had been forced to this extent, Gaoyuan could only give it a try.
"Manager Zhou, hello. I am called Gaoyuan. My father is Gao Sheng from Dingsheng Construction Company. I came to eat with a few friends. I wonder if you can arrange it for me..." Gaoyuan walked in front of the manager and said politely.
Gao Sheng from Dingsheng Construction Company? Manager Zhou knew that this person was an insignificant little boss. He was mediocre among the guests of San Diego.
Manager Zhou wanted to tactfully reject the request from the plateau, but at this moment, he glanced at a few more guests entering the door.
Qin Lang, Zhong Yu, and Cai Nong had just arrived. When they saw Ding Rui, Liu Hong, and the others sitting in the waiting area, they sat over. Clearly, they knew each other.
Manager Zhou was stunned for a moment. He immediately recognized Qin Lang and Zhong Yu. Seeing Zhong Yu and the middle-aged woman's intimate behavior, they seemed to be mother and daughter.
Last time, Xu Gao, who had mixed up in the streets, came to the restaurant to find trouble with Zhong Yu. He was fiercely beaten up by Qin Lang with a Red Wine bottle. At that time, Xu Gao had also found Shen Wanqian and Boss Shen to beat up Qin Lang, but Boss Shen heard Qin Lang's name. The plot had turned 180 degrees. Not only did Qin Lang not get beaten up, but he also got beaten up. Instead, it was Xu Gao who knelt down and kowtowed, using his tongue to lick the ground.
It seemed like he was with these people. Qin Lang was someone that even Shen Wanqian, Boss Shen, feared! He actually did not give them a seat. If Qin Lang were to get angry, it was possible that the entire restaurant would suffer.
Manager Zhou's heart trembled when he thought about what happened to Xu Gao that day.
He swallowed a mouthful of saliva.
"Manager Zhou, Manager Zhou..." Gaoyuan was puzzled. What happened to Manager Zhou?
"Ah..." Manager Zhou turned to look at Gaoyuan's face. "You want to book a seat, right? Sorry, we were careless before. I will arrange it for you and your friends now. Please wait for a moment."
"I see, okay." As soon as Gaoyuan agreed, Manager Zhou went to arrange it respectfully. This made Gaoyuan confused.
"When did my father become so powerful?" Gaoyuan scratched his head. He had not recovered yet. Originally, he was thinking about his own company. In Jinling City, which was a middle-tier company, Manager Zhou might not even give him face. He did not expect Manager Zhou to agree so quickly when he mentioned his father's name.
It seemed like his father had quite a reputation in the Jinling City.
With this thought in mind, Gaoyuan walked back to the waiting area.
"You're still asking us why we're sitting here? Do you think this restaurant is your home? Eat whenever you want to. You need to line up." Liu Hong said discontentedly to Qin Lang, then looked at Gao Yu. "Xiao Gao, it's fine if the manager doesn't agree. Anyway, Auntie is not very hungry. Let's wait for half an hour. "
"Hey, Auntie, look at what you said. I've already settled Manager Zhou. He has already gone to find a place for us," Gaoyuan said proudly.
"Ah, yes." Liu Hong was a little surprised. "Gao has his own agenda. I will tell him why he did not agree. He only went there for one or two minutes and he already agreed. Amazing!"
"He's not like some people who only know how to ask when they come here. Why are you guys still sitting here? If you have the ability, go and get the manager to vacate the seats. If you don't have the ability, why are you still talking nonsense? I'm embarrassed for you! " Liu Hong crossed her arms and didn't even look at Qin Lang. She said meaningfully.
Qin Lang sighed.
At this time, the waitress came over and warmly invited them upstairs to a private room.
The number plate was "888." When they walked in, it was spacious and bright. There was a red carpet, a yellow pear table, and two blue and white porcelain that were as tall as a person. It was unknown how much they were worth.
Seeing this configuration, Gaoyuan panicked a little. He hurriedly asked the waitress, "May I know the price of this private room?"
"Oh, this is the most luxurious room in our restaurant. The lowest cost is 50,000 yuan." The waitress politely said.
50,000 yuan. Upon hearing the price, Gaoyuan's heart couldn't help but tighten. He thought that the most expensive meal today would only cost 10,000 yuan. 50,000 yuan was going to make him bleed.
"Xiao Gao, why don't we change to another private room?" Liu Hong said. She had never spent such a high price even for fifty thousand. Moreover, Gaoyuan and Ding Rui were students. How could they take out so much money?
"It's fine, Auntie. I quite like this room. Let's eat here." Gao Yu touched the sweat on his forehead and said through gritted teeth. In front of so many people, he really did not want to lose this share.
"Sir, you don't need to pay. Our manager said that you are honored guests and it is our honor to be able to come to our hotel. So for today's meal, our restaurant will be free of charge." The waiter said with a smile.
Free of charge! Hearing this, Gaoyuan felt like a death row criminal who was about to be sentenced to death had suddenly heard that he had been pardoned. His heart was wild with joy.
He looked at the attendant's eyes, which were filled with stars. That appearance was especially comical.
"Please take a seat first. We will immediately serve the dishes to you. They are all the most famous dishes in our restaurant." The waiter smiled lightly and left the room.
"Xiao Gao, you are so proud of yourself. Not only are you giving us the most luxurious room, but you also give us the most luxurious room. Who would receive this kind of treatment? Isn't it just Xiao Gao alone? " Liu Hong sat down and proudly praised Gao Yu. The boyfriend that her daughter had was not simple. She was 120% satisfied in her heart.
"Oh right, Xiao Gao, what is your family doing? You actually have such a big face." Feng Youlan was also very interested in Gaoyuan.
"Our family only owns a small construction company, and we only earn more than 10 million a year. It's not worth mentioning," Gaoyuan said casually as he scratched his nails.
"Hey, 10 million is not worth mentioning. Xiao Gao, then we can just die." Li Na smiled and said. She then looked at Qin Lang. She looked up and down and asked in disdain, "Young man, what is your family doing? Can you earn tens of thousands a year?"
"My family does not have any business, so we can't make tens of thousands, okay?" Qin Lang did not want to talk to these snobbish people at all.
Liu Hong and the others mocked Qin Lang again because he did not have money.
Very soon, the waiter served delicious food to the table. There were eggplant pork chops, corn cream mushroom soup, vegetable dried fruit salad, top steak, fried salmon...
They were all top class western food.
This opened Liu Hong and the others' eyes. They did not even know how to use knives and forks. It was still the same. Ding Rui taught them how to use knives and forks. She saw that Zhong Yu and Qin Lang were quite familiar with using knives and forks. Liu Hong and the others were quite dissatisfied with teaching Cai Nong with their hands. Looking at it this way, weren't they the same as a country bumpkin like Cai Nong?
"Yo, the two of you are quite good with knives and forks? Have you eaten western food before?" Liu Hong asked in disbelief.
"I used to work part-time here," Zhong Yu said lightly.
"Hey, I thought you guys had western food before. It turns out you are working for someone else." Liu Hong sneered and whispered, "No matter how good the knife and fork are, it is useless. It is not like you guys have a chance to eat western food."
At this time, the door of the room was pushed open and Manager Zhou walked in with a slight bow.
"Is everyone eating well?" Manager Zhou said politely. As soon as he came in, his eyes locked onto Qin Lang's face. Of course, he didn't dare to look at Qin Lang openly and only looked at him humbly.
"Very good. Thank you for your hospitality, Manager Zhou. I will remember it." Gaoyuan stood up and took the initiative to hold Manager Zhou's hand. He said with a smile.
Manager Zhou was really too polite. He even specially came to ask me if I ate well. I also have to be more enthusiastic.
"Uh..." Manager Zhou wanted to say a few words to Qin Lang, but Gao Yu held his hand and did not let go. He even looked at him with a smile. Manager Zhou did not know what was going on either. What kind of relationship did Gaoyuan have with Qin Lang? At this time, he could only smile in a friendly manner.
Gaoyuan said a lot before finally letting Manager Zhou go.
"In order to welcome all of you, I especially came from the inventory of the hotel. I picked two bottles of Red Wine for everyone. It was a small gift. Manager Zhou said. There was already a waiter who came in with two bottles of Red Wine. Just by looking at the quality of the two bottles of wine, it was definitely not an ordinary item.
Manager Zhou introduced them. He smiled and took one bottle. He wanted to put it in front of Qin Lang personally to show his respect for Qin Lang. He had thought that just as he took a step, Gaoyuan walked up with a smile on his face.
"Manager Zhou, you are too polite. How can I..." Gaoyuan held the bottle and said a few words politely. Manager Zhou looked at him in surprise. Gaoyuan grabbed the Red Wine and looked at the bottle. He was shocked. "F * ck, this is Louis' 14th from 1992. It's more than 40,000 dollars on the market. Manager Zhou, thank you so much. How do you know I always wanted to have a taste of this wine? You know me too well... "
