It’s clear that the newly opened Jiji wants to compete with Juxian Inn, and the attendees are naturally happy to see it.
The person who was jealous of Wu Xiaoyu and Zhou Dong saw that both sides were just about to start a verbal battle, but then it quieted down, and he was very disappointed.
So he mockingly said:
“Boss Zhou, the food at your restaurant is indeed exceptional!
This business should not be bad, but you also need to leave others some room to survive, right?”
On the surface, it seemed he was praising Zhou Dong, humbly and jokingly indicating that his own restaurant couldn’t compete and asking him to leave them some room to survive.
But anyone with sharp eyes could tell who he was referring to with ‘leave some room to survive’.
Wasn’t this the lowest form of sowing discord!
Chen Zhaofeng glared at the person and said with a dark face, “Yeah!
Boss Zhou, please leave some room for us to survive!”
His tone could only be described as biting.
Some people at the table were secretly pleased, while others were very worried, fearing that the fierce fight between the two would harm themselves.
Seeing the situation, Wu Xiaoyu said, “Peace brings wealth!
We all run restaurants, and we should support each other in the future!”
Everyone hurriedly echoed, “Yes…
yes…
peace brings wealth…
peace brings wealth!”
On the opening day, Zhou Dong invited them over for a meal, without any intention of showing off, just to make acquaintances.
But unexpectedly, this seemingly gentle old man was not so broad-minded, was he?
Chen Zhaofeng had been running his restaurant business in the town for many years, and for the first time, felt threatened, naturally developing resistance and even hostility.
Besides, the atmosphere at the table was utterly ruined.
Staying would also increase displeasure, so he got up, ready to leave.
As everyone saw him leaving the table and was about to persuade him, a group of people burst in from the door, creating chaos.
Diners inside the restaurant, who were enjoying their meals, also put down their chopsticks and turned their heads to see what was happening.
Those with sharp eyes already recognized the group as Wang Erma’s men.
Coming at this time, they were probably here to make trouble, weren’t they?
After recognizing the origin of these people, instead of leaving, Chen Zhaofeng quietly sat back down to observe the situation unfold.
The dishes at Jiji were indeed a notch better than those at Juxian Inn, but running a business, especially a restaurant, wasn’t just about making good food to make money.
In Longhe Town, besides having good dishes, one also needs to manage various relationships well, for instance, dealing with people like Wang Erma.
In terms of handling human affairs, he considered himself much better than Wu Xiaoyu and Zhou Dong, these two young guys.
His twenty years of painstaking management couldn’t be compared to their immediate success.
Zhou Yong had just come from the county, and he likely had no connections with the local underworld in Longhe Town.
Although Wu Xiaoyu was a local, he was from a rundown village and wouldn’t have any acquaintances with those people either.
As things stood, after continual harassment and trouble, how could Jiji’s business ever prosper?
If they wanted to get along with those wolves and tigers, they would probably have to bleed a lot…
While Chen Zhaofeng weighed the pros and cons, gloating, Wu Xiaoyu and Zhou Dong had already left the table and walked to the door, asking sternly, “Who are you?
What do you want?”
The bosses at the table who had been extorted by these people were shocked by Wu Xiaoyu’s boldness and outspoken words, then secretly pleased.
“These two brats are really bold to talk like that…
Something’s bound to happen on this opening day!”
“Let’s see how arrogant you two can be.
Do you think making good food alone allows you to run a restaurant in Longhe Town?
Really naive!”
“Are these guys actually going to start a fight?
Hopefully, the two brats will give in and pay some money.
Otherwise, if a fight breaks out, what if I get hurt?”
“…”
As everyone pondered, they saw the hoodlums at the door, instead of getting angry, seemed a bit uneasy.
Then they saw a burly bald man walk in from the outside.
This man was none other than Brother Dao, one of Wang Erma’s men!
The appearance of Brother Dao caused some panic among the diners.
They were all residents of Longhe Town and mostly recognized Brother Dao, knowing he was a ruthless person.
Now that Brother Dao brought people over, didn’t it mean there was going to be a brawl?
What if they got hurt?
But with Brother Dao and his men blocking the door, they did not dare to leave, so they had to watch Wu Xiaoyu and Zhou Dong, and see how they planned to handle the situation.
Having opened a restaurant in the county town and with Ma Shengming behind him, Zhou Dong naturally didn’t encounter small-time troublemakers, hence he was somewhat at a loss in this situation.
Wu Xiaoyu, however, was an old acquaintance of Brother Dao and had even taught him a lesson before.
Seeing him bringing people over, Wu Xiaoyu felt calm and asked, “What’s up?
Little Dao, what do you want?”
Little Dao?
There weren’t many people in this town who dared to call Brother Dao that!
Was this brat insane?
Wasn’t he afraid of bloodshed on the spot?
Seeing Wu Xiaoyu’s arrogance, everyone broke out in a cold sweat.
It seemed this matter today couldn’t be settled with money.
Even though Chen Zhaofeng viewed Jiji as a rival, he didn’t have a blood feud with Wu Xiaoyu and didn’t want to see them get hurt, so he quickly stood up and walked over to mediate.
However, Brother Dao smiled and said to Wu Xiaoyu, “Brother, you misunderstand…
you misunderstand!
We are here to congratulate the two bosses on their grand opening, nothing else!”
Brother Dao’s attitude surprised everyone.
What was going on?
Wasn’t Brother Dao one of Wang Erma’s men?
Why was he acting so scared now?
It didn’t make sense!
Chen Zhaofeng stood still in the middle of the hall, his mind filled with confusion.
What was happening?
This…
this…
Zhou Dong, who had seen Brother Dao and Wu Xiaoyu’s interaction before, was not surprised at Brother Dao’s fear, but became more curious about Wu Xiaoyu.
He bent down and whispered to Wu Xiaoyu, “Brother, what’s going on?”
Wu Xiaoyu knew that last time, Wang Erma showed kindness to him entirely because of Ma Shengming.
Now that Zhou Dong was partnering with him to open a restaurant in Longhe Town, Wang Erma must have investigated Zhou Dong’s background.
With Zhou Dong’s connection to Ma Shengming, which was more influential than his own, Wang Erma naturally became even more deferential and dared not offend.
“What’s going on?
Don’t you know what your dad’s old classmate and friend does?” Wu Xiaoyu said.
Zhou Dong suddenly realized, it was because of Ma Shengming.
But how did they know about each other’s relationship?
It seemed this small Longhe Town was also full of hidden talents and dangers!
