"There's a province that opened 10 5A scenic spots in its province to foreigners for the sake of the development of the airport's passenger flow. Although it's only free for the first week after arriving in China, it's still disgusting. After all, we Chinese have to pay to go there ourselves." Tang Xi knitted her brows and said.
"What does that mean? Does it mean the foreigners don't need to pay to come and see our scenery, but we have to pay to go there ourselves? "A customer asked discontentedly.
"That's right." Tang Xi nodded her head affirmatively and then continued, "The person from the Tourism Bureau has admitted it and even explained that the big tickets are free, but the small tickets are not."
"Tsk-tsk. They can really do anything for their future." Su Mu sneered and didn't say anything more.
"That's too much."
"Exactly. What kind of logic is that? It's understandable that the foreigners pay more to see the scenic spots. After all, the scenic spots belong to them and the locals have contributed to the development. What did the foreigners do? Why can they go there for free?"
The customers in the restaurant started to discuss fervently and angrily.
Only when Yuan Zhou cooked another five servings of food and said something did the atmosphere lighten up.
"The dishes are ready. Come and carry them." Yuan Zhou set down the tray and said with a clear voice.
Now there were many customers carrying dishes in his restaurant. Therefore, Yuan Zhou would say that to them sometimes.
Yuan Zhou's words woke up the customers who had sunk into anger, but also reminded the other customers.
Except for those who went to carry their dishes, the other customers immediately started to discuss the behavior of Yuan Zhou charging USD.
"I think it's right for Boss Yuan to charge USD. They originally use USD. There's nothing wrong with using USD in our restaurant."
"Right. They should be more expensive than us. They can't be like those people." "Exactly.
We are still blackmailed when we go to other countries to have fun. Boss Yuan has marked the price clearly and didn't raise the price on purpose. He just charged them according to the consumption level of their own country. Boss Yuan is much more merciful. Confucius once said that one should repay enmity with kindness and repay kindness with kindness. "
"Anyway, there are a lot of places that are either free or discounted to foreigners. Our Boss Yuan has to pay USD to eat here. It's only right for us to bully them," Tang Xi said angrily.
Yuan Zhou raised his brows at Tang Xi and suddenly said, "I'm not bullying foreigners, I'm just taking care of the Chinese."
Yuan Zhou's voice was calm and his tone was flat. He was merely stating facts. According to the rarity of the ingredients, charging US dollars was the scientific retail price.
The customers in the restaurant felt the anger in their hearts dissipate a little after hearing that.
Only Wuhai, who had just finished his meal, muttered, "Compass has said this before."
That's right, Yuan Zhou had said this before. When the foreigners were dissatisfied with this, Yuan Zhou had already said it.
Moreover, Yuan Zhou also said that he was just a chef, a chef with a nationality.
The mood of the customers in the restaurant came and went quickly, because the dishes that they had just ordered were served one after another.
People could always forget all the unhappiness when they were immersed in the food. Of course, the customers didn't forget to look for the news that Tang Xi had mentioned.
After knowing that it was true, they didn't forget to leave their opinions. However, this was a story for another time. After all, Yuanzhou shop had a tradition of not looking at their phones.
Therefore, they were all eating seriously now.
Among the people eating seriously, there was a girl who was particularly eye-catching. She was wearing a pair of black-rimmed glasses, a brown striped checkered shirt, and a pair of slim black trousers. She looked ordinary, but she was somewhat eye-catching.
This was because she was squinting and enjoying the food from time to time while holding a pen in her left hand and writing on a notebook.
However, she was using her left hand.
Tang Xi obviously knew this girl. Seeing her like this, she said directly, "A 'Ji, are you calculating the lottery again?"
"Yes." The girl called A 'Ji didn't even raise her head. She continued writing on the paper. At the same time, her right hand didn't stop and she kept feeding herself. She looked like she was enjoying the food.
"Did you win last time?" Tang Xi didn't care about A 'Ji's attitude and asked curiously.
"I won ten yuan," A 'Ji said happily.
"But you have to calculate for two hours every day. Isn't ten yuan a little too little?" Tang Xi glanced at the dense calculations on the notebook and couldn't help but ask.
"No, I calculate during my free time. It's a side income. The more I calculate, the more I win, and I can come to Boss Yuan's place to eat more." A 'Ji put down her pen and closed the thick notebook.
"Alright, I don't understand." Tang Xi shook her head.
"Statistics and probability are fun," A 'Ji pushed her black-rimmed glasses up and said with bright eyes.
"No, I get a headache when I see those numbers." Tang Xi immediately shook her head.
"Are you interested in metaphysics?" A 'Ji asked mysteriously.
Tang Xi immediately nodded obediently to show that she was interested. She listened attentively.
Actually, Tang Xi and A 'Ji didn't know each other outside the restaurant, but they would occasionally bump into each other in the restaurant. They were about the same age, so it only took them three months to get to know each other.
However, they didn't really meet each other that often. They only met about ten times, but they felt like they were good friends when they talked.
"I calculated the frequency of my recent winning, and I noticed that it increased by twenty percent after I came to eat at Boss Yuan's place," A 'Ji said as he gestured with two fingers.
"Really?" Tang Xi asked with her eyes wide open.
"Yes, it increased by twenty percent compared to three months ago." A 'Ji nodded.
"I knew it. Boss Yuan is amazing." As a fangirl, Tang Xi said without hesitation that it was all thanks to Yuan Zhou.
"Indeed. Boss Yuan's place should be a blessed land. It's quite mysterious." A 'Ji nodded in agreement.
"No wonder you've been coming here a lot recently." Tang Xi was enlightened.
"That's only natural. After all, I usually win 10 or 20 RMB every time. If it's less, I'll win 5 RMB at least. I can earn more than a thousand RMB a month. Not only will the food here be better, but I can also earn extra money as a side income, so I naturally come here more often," A 'Ji said.
"Looks like I have to find a part-time job as well. That way, I can earn more money to eat more," Tang Xi said as she clenched her fists.
"I can consider it." A 'Ji nodded.
The two girls chatted happily. The customers at the side didn't say much about A 'Ji's behavior of calculating lottery tickets. Instead, they were used to it.
After all, it wasn't just A 'Ji who calculated and ate at the same time. There were also people who cried while eating.
As for Yuan Zhou, he looked at A Ji curiously and thought inwardly, This girl must be good at math.
This was the natural feeling of a math flunky toward a top student.
Lunchtime passed quickly. In the afternoon, Yuan Zhou went to take a look at the store that was going to be used as a warehouse. He found that it had already been dismantled and was being repainted. Suddenly, an idea came to Yuan Zhou's mind.
"Hello, master. Can you come and work with me to build the shelves tomorrow?" Yuan Zhou directly made a call to Carpenter Lian.
