Chapter 618 Kong Xuan is just my bag-carrying brother
"That's great, you actually know the manager here. Then you won't have to wait so long to make reservations for meals here in the future."
Li Liuer, the pink-haired, baby-faced girl, smiled happily. "How about this? You treat me to the meal and I'll pay for it. But can you please talk to their manager and ask them to take care of the reservations a little bit in the future?"
"a piece of cake!"
Wen Rui agreed without hesitation and didn't bother to be polite with her. He accepted the lady's offer to pay the bill with a clear conscience.
Eating seafood inland and eating delicacies under the sea are both luxury consumption, not to mention that the restaurants directly under the Chamber of Commerce are known for their authenticity and high-endness, from raw materials to chefs.
It is not uncommon to spend tens of thousands of meat coins on a meal.
Taking the income of ordinary people in the Demon Alliance into consideration, the minimum monthly salary is only 500 meat coins. The annual income of a poor demon is less than 10,000. How can they afford it?
The two mermaid girls said this not because they couldn't afford it, but because they had consumed here before and knew that the prices here were expensive. They were afraid of being a burden to their dates, so they spoke out to dissuade them.
The mermaids are very wealthy nowadays, and the price of any mermaid pearl they make is no less than 100,000 meat coins.
The bright moon over the sea makes pearls shed tears; the warm sun in Lantian makes jade emit smoke.
I am talking about the mermaid pearls and Lantian jade, which are rare treasures of equal value.
In addition, the mermaids have their own unique skills, which is weaving Jiao gauze, which is also called dragon gauze. Originally, only the dragon clan would wear Jiao gauze clothes, and the Dragon King's dragon robe was made of Jiao gauze.
Before the mermaids were liberated, they were just slaves of the dragon clan. All their output belonged to the dragon clan, and they had no personal property.
They will even be harshly exploited, forced to shed tears containing the essence of life and condense into pearls.
Force them to weave day and night, preferably while weaving, to add to the dragon clan's treasure house.
After joining the Demon Alliance, the mermaids gained their freedom. Although they were unable to recover the assets that had been exploited by the dragons, they could now freely dispose of everything their bodies produced.
In addition to their income from work, the mermaid girls only need to occasionally do odd jobs in the textile factories run by mermaids and collect their tears, and they can live a fairly abundant and wealthy life.
Li Lan'er and Li Liu'er are such girls. They often forget to collect their salary as police officers.
However, the life of rich people will feel plain and boring after a long time. Although they have abundant material life, they will become more and more lonely spiritually because it is difficult to find a partner.
It is said that rich women like them, even if their looks are not favored by the sea people and they are considered ugly, should still have many gigolos coming to them for the sake of their money.
But you have to know that all the mermaids work in the police system. Even if you succeed in deceiving a female police officer, you will offend the entire Sihai Police Department. You may not be able to spend the money you cheated with your life.
After the monkey and sea eagle brothers who took the initiative to invite them left a very good first impression, they never considered whether the other party was rich or not.
In their view, even if the other party is rich, he cannot be richer than themselves. If he can please them, they will be willing to spend money.
When they walked into the lobby of Shanzhenlou, a Terran lobby manager came out to greet them immediately. He showed a very standard professional smile and said, "Welcome. May I ask which private room the VIPs have reserved?"
When saying this, the human lobby manager looked at the two mermaid girls and didn't even glance at the monkey and the sea eagle.
The transformed third-level monsters are at best at the Golden Core Realm, and they are monkey monsters and bird monsters that do not produce any high-value special materials on their bodies. They are obviously not the target customers of high-consumption places like Shanzhenlou.
But mermaids were frequent visitors, so he subconsciously regarded the two mermaid girls as the main guests, and the monkey and the eagle were probably just friends who came here to eat.
Li Liuer shook her head and said, "I don't have an appointment."
"Sorry, we do not accommodate customers without reservations..." The human manager's attentive and professional smile remained unchanged, but it was obvious that it looked a little fake.
Wen Rui took out a black card from his pocket, interrupted the human lobby manager, jumped up and waved it in front of him: "Do you recognize this? I am a third-level member of the Chamber of Commerce. I am responsible for supplying the ingredients in your store."
Seeing the black card flashing before his eyes, the human manager's pupils dilated. He quickly squatted down, not daring to look down at the water monkey. He smiled and said, "Excuse me, I didn't recognize the great man!"
After he confirmed the authenticity of the black card on the flat jade plate, he became a little flustered and shouted, "Boss Mao, please go upstairs! The first-class private room is ready for you! I'll go and report your presence to our general manager!"
The Chamber of Commerce has long implemented information management, and the membership cards it issues have the function of being traceable online, so there is no need to worry about counterfeiting or misuse.
The lobby manager could confirm the identity information without even asking the name, and found out that the unremarkable water monkey in front of him was actually the president of a chamber of commerce enterprise.
The human manager shouted with almost full energy, his attitude was a bit too nice, Wen Rui then realized that the level of the membership card he took out was still too high, it was just to jump the queue and get a private room, a fourth-level membership of the Chamber of Commerce would be enough.
A fourth-level member is equivalent to the position of general manager of the Coral City Chamber of Commerce.
The general manager of this restaurant always behaves as a subordinate when meeting level 4 members.
A third-level membership is equivalent to the level of general manager of the East China Sea region. That is to say, although Wen Rui was talking about the delicacies from this restaurant, the third-level membership card represents that his company supplies delicacies to all cities and high-end restaurants in the entire East China Sea.
If you accidentally offend a large supplier of this size, just one word can cause Shanzhenlou to go bankrupt due to a shortage of food.
"low profile……"
Wen Rui lowered his voice and said, "I'm just having a casual meal with a few friends. I don't want to be disturbed. Just book a private room and don't tell anyone. Do you understand?"
"Yes! Yes!" The lobby manager nodded hurriedly.
"Oh, right." Wen Rui thought of something and pointed at the two merman girls: "Get each of them a VIP card, the kind that doesn't require an appointment and gives them a 20% discount."
"Okay, let's do it right away!"
The two mermaid girls looked at each other and saw a hint of surprise in each other's eyes.
"I can't believe you're such a powerful little monkey."
Li Liuer was outspoken and blurted out: "You look like a big boss."
Wen Rui said modestly: "I just do some small business, sprinkle some water, and make a living."
"You are so amazing, so is your friend, Mr. Diao, also amazing?"
When Li Liuer said this, her eyes rolled around, and it was obvious that she was not asking for herself, revealing a little bit of scheming.
"Him?" Wen Rui pretended not to notice and said with a smile: "He is just my bodyguard and driver. He has been with me for many years. I treat him like a younger brother..."
As soon as the word "brother" came out of his mouth, Wen Rui felt his scalp tingling and the sea eagle's sharp eyes stared at him.
"He treats me like a brother. We have a very good relationship."
Wen Rui immediately changed his words, maintaining his image as a big boss, and gave Kong Xuan the identity of a bag-carrying little brother.
