Chapter 427: Overpowering Others with Power
? Dongfang Yuzhuang has been in good business since it opened.
July was the busiest time for business again. Even though it was past nine o'clock when Li Dong and the others arrived, the hall was still full of guests.
Seeing so many people outside the door, Shen Qian couldn't help but stop and said, "Why don't you change to another house, and don't cause trouble for uncles and aunts at this time."
Li Dong rolled his eyes, and said speechlessly: "You've made me a good person, right? If I turn around and leave now, do you believe that my mother can cut me to death?"
Shen Qian couldn't help laughing when she heard the words, and didn't mention the change of place again.
The two entered the restaurant, and Lin Meng was busy at the front desk.
Looking up to see Li Dong arrived, Lin Meng hurriedly greeted him, "Dongzi, when did you come back?"
Li Dong smiled and said, "I just came back this afternoon, Sister Meng, the business is good."
"Well, the business has been very good during this period, and the turnover has nearly tripled compared to when it first opened."
Lin Meng smiled, and then greeted Shen Qian: "Mr. Shen, you are here too, you haven't eaten tonight, I'll help you arrange something to eat."
Shen Qian hurriedly said: "Don't call me Boss Shen, just call me Shen Qian. By the way, aren't uncles and aunts here?"
"Yes, they're all upstairs. I'll call them for you..."
Li Dong waved his hand and said, "No need, we can go up by ourselves, there are private rooms upstairs, right?"
"Yes, the Fugui Hall is still empty." After Lin Meng finished speaking, he said, "Let me lead you up."
"Don't bother, Sister Meng, help us eat on the hour, just go faster, put less spicy, and you can figure out the rest."
"That's fine, you go up and sit for a while, the food will be ready soon."
Li Dong nodded and led Shen Qian to the second floor.
...
The two had just gone upstairs when they happened to meet Li Chengyuan and the others leading people downstairs.
Upon seeing Li Dong and Shen Qian, Li Chengyuan hurriedly said, "Dongzi, when did you come back?"
"Just got back this afternoon.
"
Li Dong responded, and said suspiciously: "Dad, who are you?"
Li Chengyuan smiled and said: "It's okay, you haven't eaten yet, go and sit for a while, we will come up right away."
Li Dong glanced at the people brought by Li Chengyuan, nodded slightly, and said, "That's all right, you go to work first..."
In the middle of speaking, Li Dong suddenly stopped and said, "Wait a minute."
After speaking, Li Dong glanced at Cao Fang at the back of the crowd, and then at the wine box in her hand. Li Dong frowned and said, "Mom, why are you moving things yourself? What about the rest of the hotel?"
Cao Fang laughed dryly and said, "It's fine, and it's not heavy. I can just move it myself."
"I'll help you……"
"It's really unnecessary..."
While the two were talking, a woman in her thirties in the crowd said impatiently: "I said you are endless, how heavy is a case of wine, hurry up, Liu Ke has something to do later, how can I have time to talk to you?" You waste!"
"Liu Ke?"
Li Dong glanced at the big back in the crowd, then at Cao Fang, who winked at him.
Li Dong immediately understood what these people were doing, and then Li Dong looked down at the wine in the wine box.
National cellar 1573!
This wine is not cheap, and it is certainly not a regular wine in the restaurant. In 2006, a bottle of Guojiao 1573 cost more than 1,000 yuan.
A box would cost seven or eight thousand!
Li Dong frowned and said, "Mom, is this wine from our family?"
Cao Fang was a little embarrassed, and was about to speak, when the woman next to her became anxious again, "I said what's the matter with you, can't we chat later?"
Li Dong looked back at her, squinted his eyes and smiled, "Did you pay for this wine?"
Everyone's faces changed when they heard the words, obviously they didn't expect Li Dong to ask this suddenly.
Seeing their faces, Li Dong didn't understand that these people must have come to fight the autumn wind, and their appetites are really big.
In 2006, the per capita salary of Hirakawa was around 1500 yuan.
A case of wine is almost worth half a year's wages for ordinary people.
This is only a section chief, and only a department. If several departments come together, tens of thousands will go out in a month.
How much does the restaurant earn in total in one month? It opened on June 1, and it has only been a month and a half. These people really dare to stretch their hands.
Li Dong breathed a little, ignored those people who were stupefied, and then asked Cao Fang, "Mom, how many times have these people been here? Why didn't you tell me before?"
Cao Fang was a little helpless, and after a while said: "Dongzi, leave this matter alone."
"Mom, don't try to persuade me about this, I'll take care of it!"
Li Dong snorted, a few thousand dollars is a trivial matter, the key is that Li Dong is upset.
There are seven or eight people in this group, and there are five or six elders. It's fine to beat the autumn wind, but Cao Fang was asked to follow behind to carry the wine, and he didn't even bother to reach out.
To do business, you can take care of it, but it must be moderate.
One time I came here was a box of Guojiao, obviously slaughtering Dongfang Yuzhuang as a fat sheep.
Li Dong didn't care what other people thought, and asked again: "Mom, how many times have they come?"
Cao Fang now knew that her son was in charge, so she said, "Twice."
"How much did you take?"
"That... last time your dad gave you a red envelope of 5,000 yuan, and this is it." After Cao Fang finished speaking, seeing the faces of the people in front of her were a little ugly, she suddenly felt much better.
Thinking that her son is not an unknown person, Cao Fang continued: "Also, they often come to eat and make IOUs. After more than a month, they owe five or six thousand. Not only their family, but also the business and fire department. , Over the past month, they have spent 30,000 to 40,000 yuan, including the food owed, the total is about 50,000 yuan."
Li Dong sneered when he heard the words, looked at the people with big backs and said, "You guys really have a big appetite, 50,000 yuan, do you know what you can do with 50,000 yuan? It's not the first time for me, Li Dong, to do business. I should take care of it." Of course, I will take care of it, but it’s really rare to see people as greedy as you, and they will catch my family and kill them together, right?”
It is normal to manage tens of thousands of yuan a month to open such a large fishing village, and Li Dong also understands.
There are rules in officialdom, and there are rules in shopping malls.
As long as you don't go overboard, everyone can live in peace.
But in one and a half months, 50,000 yuan was spent, which is not excessive, but that the other party deliberately slaughtered people.
Li Dong understands that his parents are the kind of people who do more things than do less things.
In addition, Yuzhuang also made money, 50,000 yuan, and they accepted it after gnashing their teeth.
But the more this is the case, the more these people will go too far.
I just bumped into them today. If I hadn't bumped into them, Li Dong can guarantee that their appetites would get bigger and bigger in the future.
This time it is a box of Guojiao, next time I dare to have a box of Moutai.
Next time, even if it is less than tens of thousands, you are too embarrassed to sell it. After a long time, even the best business will be done for them.
Li Dong opened this restaurant to support his parents, not to support these people!
Seeing Li Dong's harsh words, the big back who had been silent before slightly frowned and said: "Little brother, don't get me wrong, I'm not the kind of person who lacks alcohol for a few bottles of wine. Let's forget about it, but If there is any trouble in your Yuzhuang in the future, don't blame me for handling it impartially."
Li Dong smiled and said: "Hey, are you threatening me? You really regard yourself as a person, and don't care about you, you still stick your nose in the face, right?"
"How did you talk!"
The woman next to Dabeitou exploded again, and said angrily: "What do you mean? You have to make a fuss about a few bottles of wine, do you think we lack this thing? Last time you were complained, if it wasn't for Liu Ke's help Take care, can your restaurant continue to operate?
Just give you a fine of tens of thousands, and if you are asked to suspend business for a few months, your restaurant will have to close, do you believe it? "
"Yo, you are still competing with me, I still don't believe it, can you suspend business for rectification and show me?"
Li Dong chuckled, then suddenly changed his face and said: "Stop pretending to be a fool with me, listen to what you mean, Pingchuan is still covered by you alone, right? You give me a try to rectify it, if you can't rectify it, I will let you Believe it or not, you all go home and eat steamed buns for the rest of your life!"
The faces of the people in Dabei's head changed, and even the woman from before didn't dare to interrupt anymore.
Those who are in the officialdom, especially those at the bottom, are not old-fashioned.
It's okay to scare the little people, but when you meet a ruthless character, these people change their faces faster than anyone else.
Seeing Li Dong's words are so confident, believe it or not, it's no good to argue at this time.
After a while, Dabei whispered softly: "Little brother, leave a name?"
Li Dong laughed and said: "Those who don't know think you are in the same way, and the name will be exempted, and you don't know if you tell me. You go back and inquire. When I opened the business, I, Li Dong, didn't take care of your superiors." , come with me now, do you really think my Li Dong's money is so easy to get?"
Dabeitou's face changed slightly, he nodded and said nothing.
Just know the name, and if you go back and ask, you can always know what the other party is doing.
Don't even think about the drink today, Dabei took a breath and said: "Okay, then I will not bother you today."
Li Dong said again, "Don't be in a hurry to leave, pay for the meal first, and tell your colleagues when you go back, give me the meal money owed to our family as soon as possible." It's over, don't force me to come to collect the bill one by one, do you understand what I mean?"
Dabeitou's face froze for a moment, then nodded again and said, "Okay!"
"You are wise!"
Li Dong snorted, and didn't care about these guys anymore.
When these people went downstairs, Li Chengyuan said helplessly: "Dongzi, you can't speak properly, why do you have to be so stiff."
Li Dong said angrily: "Dad, you should have told me about this a long time ago! I might as well raise a dog for these guys. A dog knows how to protect the owner. Raise them, and I won't give up until I swallow you up." of."
Li Chengyuan naturally understood this truth, but after being taught by his son, Lao Li still didn't care about face. He hummed and said, "You think I'm not prepared. I'll make offerings to them first. Later, they'll have to look at my face."
Cao Fang rolled his eyes at him and said, "Don't speak harshly, if you are really this good, how can you spend so much money in more than a month?"
Li Chengyuan's face was embarrassing and he didn't make a sound.
Seeing this, Cao Fang didn't continue, turned around and smiled at Shen Qian and said, "Xiao Shen, you see this made you laugh, you are here for dinner, go to the private room and sit for a while, I will let Dongzi's father come down Cook, help you get something delicious."
Shen Qian quickly smiled and said: "Auntie, you're welcome, we can eat whatever we want. By the way, have you and uncle eaten? If not, let's eat together."
"Eat it, I have eaten it a long time ago. Xiao Shen, you eat too late. Let me tell you, women must pay attention to eating irregularly. After a long time, the stomach will not be good. If the stomach is not good, you will have a bad stomach in the future. baby..."
The chat between the two was in full swing, Li Dong shook his head helplessly, he knew it would be like this.
Not caring about them anymore, Li Dong leaned on the railing and looked downstairs.
A few people in Dabeitou are checking out at the front desk, and they seem to be honest.
Seeing this, Li Chengyuan said in a low voice: "Hell is better than a little ghost. Those of us who run a restaurant are not afraid of those big leaders, but those small leaders at the grassroots level. You are all right today, right?"
"It's okay, don't say anything else, if there is another person from the industry and commerce, you can go directly to their director! I still don't believe it, his surname Chen has the nerve to come to me to collect protection money!"
Pingchuan's director of industry and commerce is a graduate of Jiang University and a senior of Li Dongtong's major.
If the other party who even opened a restaurant doesn't give this face, then Li Dong will be considered a fool.
After saying this, Li Dong said again: "Don't worry about other departments. Yuanfang is so big in Jiangbei, and I will naturally abide by the rules that should be followed. But no one in Jiangbei is capable of slaughtering me like a fat sheep."
The matter of tens of thousands of dollars is really nothing to Li Dong.
But it’s still the same sentence, you can take what you should take, and Li Dong will not give it to him if you don’t deserve it!
The father and son said a few words, and Li Chengyuan was relieved.
Although Li Dong has a bit of a bad temper, but that's still the target of scoring, and it's not enough to trick his own father.
Since he said it was fine, it must be fine.
...
Li Dong and Shen Qian had been eating in the restaurant for about half an hour when their mobile phone rang.
Glancing at the calling number, Li Dong answered with a smile and said, "Senior, did this really alarm you?"
Chen Jianhao said with a smile: "Li Xuedi, look at this incident. If the old Wang from the Health Bureau hadn't called me, I really didn't know about it. I also said hello when your restaurant opened before, but the following People are messing around, you know, I just took office not long ago..."
Chen Jianhao explained a few words, but Li Dong didn't take it too seriously as to whether it was true or not.
After a few polite words with the other party, Li Dong hung up the phone.
Afterwards, Li Dong didn't receive any more calls, but those people must have known it in their hearts. It's just a small restaurant, and there should be no one who doesn't have eyes to come over to make trouble in the future.
After Li Dong finished answering the phone, Shen Qian chuckled and said, "Your temper has changed today. I thought you were going to hit someone before."
"What are you thinking, I can beat someone for this matter?"
"It's good to know how to restrain yourself. The previous things haven't passed yet. Next time, if you can be reasonable, you will be reasonable. If you can't be reasonable, then you will use your power to overwhelm others. Don't do it directly, you know?"
Li Dong rolled his eyes, Shen Qian said this, what does it mean to overwhelm others with power?
I am not a bad person, just reasoned with the other party, okay. (To be continued.)
