Chapter 687 A New Round of Excitement
Although this barbecue restaurant is not doing well, it is not without customers. There are still a few tables of customers here and there.
The guests at the three or two tables were also watching the fun.
At this time, a table of guests shouted: "Come over here and pay the bill."
There were two men at this table. There were eight or nine empty beer bottles on the table, but there were quite a few skewers left.
The proprietress was being bullied until her face turned green and red. When she heard someone shouting for the bill, she turned around as if to escape, took out a calculator, pressed some numbers randomly, and went to the table that needed to be paid. "Five hundred and sixty-two."
A man who had just opened his wallet suddenly laughed when he heard this, "How much did you say?"
The other man also frowned and said, "Show us the bill."
The proprietress's face changed for a moment, and finally she had to go and get a handwritten list.
The two customers looked at the list face to face and their faces turned unhappy.
One of them asked, "Madam boss, is your price right?"
The boss lady raised her voice again, "Why is it wrong?!"
Another customer moved quickly, walked a few steps to where the boss had been resting, and picked up a menu on the table next to him.
"Hey? What are you doing?!" The proprietress wanted to run over to stop him.
The man glanced at the menu and saw the proprietress coming over to grab the menu, so he raised the menu high and walked towards the crowd while shouting loudly.
"Look everyone, the skewers on the menu cost three dollars, but they were charged five dollars when we paid! And the side dishes on the menu cost twenty-two dollars, but they became thirty-two dollars when we paid?! This restaurant is a fucking scam!"
The barbecue restaurant owner was originally chatting with Su Xing, He Xu and the juice stall owner, but when he heard what the customer said, his head suddenly started buzzing.
Su Xing and He Xu looked at each other: No wonder this store’s business is not good.
The people around who were watching the excitement also stretched their necks, looking forward to a new round of excitement.
The juice stall owner didn't even have time to adjust his mood, and suddenly found that he was no longer the protagonist of the fun?
The proprietress chased after the man and shouted, "Come back, what are you shouting for!"
The boss also turned around to greet the customer, "Brother, let's talk it over nicely. Maybe my wife was careless and made a mistake in the calculation. I'll recalculate it for you."
"You calculated wrong?" The man held up the menu and sneered, "You guys are really good at calculating. Every item you calculated wrongly has its price increased. I haven't seen any price reductions!"
His companion also came over and shouted, "How dare you blame an unrelated person for affecting your business? Why is your business so bad? Don't you have any idea? The meat skewers are too old and woody, the dipping sauce is not fragrant, and the side dishes are nothing but salty. Look at how much food is left on our table? With your cooking skills, we won't come again! Now that we find out that you are still ripping people off, your black shop will go bankrupt sooner or later. You still want to do good business? What are you dreaming about?!"
The lady boss yelled, "There's nothing wrong with our food. It's just your taste that's the problem!"
The boss was sweating profusely. "Alright, alright, stop arguing. I'll recalculate for you!"
The customer holding the menu took out his cell phone and took a photo of the menu.
Another person also collected the handwritten bill.
"What are you doing? Why are you taking pictures? Give me back the bill!" The proprietress tried to grab both the menu and the handwritten bill, but failed.
She looked at the waiters standing by and said, "Are you blind? Why don't you help me?"
The customer who was taking a picture of the menu sneered, "If you dare to move, I will lie down! I will make you lose all your pants!"
The employees in the store were already hesitant, and this time they didn't dare to move.
The boss lady was so angry that she pointed at them and yelled, "Don't you guys want to work anymore? Don't you want your salary anymore?!"
Su Xing and He Xu, who had already become background characters, took the initiative to make their presence felt again.
Su Xing said: "The store dismissed employees without reason, threatened them and refused to pay their wages, which is illegal. Employees can protect their legal rights and interests by filing complaints with labor and social security supervision agencies, applying for labor arbitration or filing civil lawsuits."
He Xu then said: "For those who don't understand the process, we can explain it more clearly. If you need legal assistance, we can also provide help."
There were also people who came to watch and support.
"That's right! Don't be afraid of them!"
"He's not good to the customers, and he's not good to the employees. How can such a person open a shop?"
The boss was already very annoyed. He yelled at his wife, "Shut up! Stop making trouble!"
Then he smiled at the two customers who were paying the bill and said, "I'll recalculate the bill for you two. Let's be friendly, okay?"
"You figure it out."
"That order..." The boss stretched out his hand, wanting to take back the handwritten order.
The two guests refused to give it.
"We didn't finish everything we ordered, and we can remember the quantities, so let's just leave it at that."
The boss had no choice but to look at the remaining food and wine bottles on the table and recount the bill for the two guests.
Finally, he smiled awkwardly and said, "We really miscalculated before. It's 381. Just give 380."
The other party laughed twice, paid the money, and asked for an invoice.
As soon as we paid the bill, the guests at the other two tables also asked for their bills.
Having learned from the previous experience, the boss and his wife no longer dared to tamper with the bill and always calculated the price according to the menu price.
After the two tables of guests paid the bill, they also expressed their opinions on the food.
A table of guests said: "Your food is really salty. I drank three bottles of water during the meal. I was so full that I couldn't eat anything."
Another table of customers said: "The taste is really average, and the skewers are smaller than in many restaurants. We haven't even finished eating them yet. Boss, if you don't improve the taste, your restaurant will never be popular."
The boss and his wife both looked livid, but they could only listen, not daring to anger the customer again.
At this time, a stall owner selling roasted pork knuckles nearby suddenly said, "Some time ago, someone got sick from eating at this barbecue restaurant. They didn't want to take responsibility and accused the customer of blackmail. Later, the customer called the police, and they paid for the customer's medical expenses."
Another stall owner selling stinky tofu said: "This has happened to him more than once or twice. Everyone in the neighborhood knows about it. People who know about his situation will not go there to eat. It would be strange if his business is good. So now they rip off the first-time customers."
Someone asked, "No one reported them?"
The stinky tofu stall owner said: "It seems that most of them have settled the matter privately, but there are also people who have reported them. Their store was rectified a few months ago, and after reopening, business has been even worse."
They all do business nearby, and they didn't want to offend this black-hearted and unreasonable couple before. But looking at the situation today, this barbecue restaurant is probably not far from closing down. They couldn't help but gossip about it with the people around them.
Su Xing and He Xu also heard the complaints from the stall owners nearby.
Sure enough, the darkness of human hearts does not occur overnight.
He Xu frowned and said, "It's not so easy to reopen a store that has been rectified..."
