“Shopkeeper Song, now that we have delivered the dishes, you have to pay the bill,” the waiter said with a smile.

Shopkeeper Song: “…”

A stingy miser!

This Wu Jiantong was really stingy!

But since the waiter had already said it, and it was in front of so many people, there was no reason for Manager Song not to pay, so he just let the waiter take the money and give it to the other party.

And of course he would not return the plate to the other party. In order to avoid any gossip, Shopkeeper Song took the initiative to pay for the plate.

The waiter of Huibinlou took the money and bowed to Shopkeeper Song, “I won’t bother you anymore, Shopkeeper Song. Goodbye.”

“Goodbye.” Shopkeeper Song gritted his teeth and said these two words.

After the two guys walked away, he returned to the backyard with a grim face.

The waiter at Mingyuxuan had also brought the Mapo Tofu to the backyard.

“Boss, this Mapo Tofu…” the waiter asked carefully.

Shopkeeper Song had a gloomy face. He flicked his sleeves and knocked all the dishes in the waiter’s hands to the ground.

I never want to hear the words “Mapo Tofu” again!

The guy’s face also looked very bad.

One reason was fear. He was afraid that if his boss was in a bad mood, he would scold and whip them.

The second reason was pity.

This Mapo Tofu looked delicious, smelled fragrant, and was very appetizing.

Although he was a waiter at Mingyuxuan, he had long heard that Huibinlou’s Mapo Tofu tasted good, but he had never had the chance to try it. Now that Mapo Tofu was finally delivered to Mingyuxuan, he was still wondering if he could have a few bites.

But all the dishes were knocked to the ground by the shopkeeper.

What a pity…

It was shameful to waste food!

The news that Huibinlou sent three plates of mapo tofu to Mingyuxuan soon spread to Fuyunlou and Jun Youlai.

Both Shopkeeper Zhao and Shopkeeper Qian were extremely angry.

Three plates of Mapo Tofu, it was so obvious that the person who went to Huibinlou to order 300 dishes of Mapo Tofu was sent by Ming Yuxuan!

Good guy, he was just filled with righteous indignation, looking like he was wronged like Dou E, but it turned out that the person who was really behind the scenes was Song!

“Manager Zhao, I think this guy surnamed Song is not honest. Don’t bring him with you if we have any business in the future, lest he always has his own little tricks and sells us out!”

Shopkeeper Qian was the most angry at this moment.

Because he had fought with Huibinlou before.

When this incident happened, Huibinlou first suspected Fuyunlou.

This Song guy was clearly trying to take advantage of the situation and did all the bad things using their restaurant as the shield!

Shopkeeper Zhao also nodded, “Indeed, this Song guy should not be befriended.”

He had thought that Shopkeeper Song was his elder brother!

He was really blind.

But then again, after what happened today, the restaurant handled the situation very well and in the end, they didn’t suffer any losses. Instead, Ming Yuxuan was left with no words to complain about.

This Wu Jiantong was a character.

The boss behind him was also smart enough.

It really should not be underestimated.

Shopkeeper Zhao touched his chin, with a lot on his mind.

On this side, after Liu Wuwan came back, he contacted the guys from Ming Yuxuan.

“Brother, next time you need this kind of work, go find someone else. Don’t ask me for help. This kind of work is not something that everyone can do.”

Liu Wuwan almost plucked out all the hair on his head. “The owner of the restaurant at that time, although she was a delicate girl, was very eloquent and could talk better than the abbot in the temple. I will break this matter down and tell you one by one. It will sound like there are 500 ducks chattering around your ears.”

But this Miss Su was very pretty, even if she was a duck, she was the most beautiful one.

“Amitabha, you have no idea how many times I heard the words ‘Mapo Tofu’ and ‘Tofu’ today. To be honest, I really don’t want to hear the name of this dish again, and I don’t want to eat tofu anymore!”

The waiter frowned when he heard what Liu Wuwan said, “So how many dishes did you order in the end?”

“Order food?” Liu Wuwan almost jumped up. “You still want to order food? What are you thinking? She kept talking like a bamboo tube pouring beans, and you can’t even get a word in!”

In other words, Liu Wuwan didn’t accomplish anything at all and didn’t cause any trouble to Huibinlou?

The waiter thought for a while, pointed at Liu Wuwan’s nose, and cursed, “Useless thing, I gave you so much money, in addition to hard work and money for food, you didn’t accomplish anything?”

“That’s why I came back to return you the money for the dishes.” Liu Wuwan took out a piece of silver from his purse and threw it to the waiter, “This is the money for 300 dishes of Mapo Tofu.”

“I am a very honest person in business. I will pay you back the money you didn’t use, and I won’t take any money from you. If you need other work next time, please call me. Of course, I will never take the job of going to that restaurant again.”

The clerk weighed the silver in his hand, his eyes sparkling with brilliance, and reached out to stop Liu Wuwan who was about to leave, “Wait a moment.”

“What’s wrong?” Liu Wuwan stopped.

“This amount of money doesn’t seem right,” said the worker. “That so-called hard-earned money should be returned as well.”

Return the hard-earned money?

Liu Wuwan was furious when he heard this. “What are you talking about, you bastard? I told you when I accepted the job that this is hard-earned money.”

“But you didn’t get the job done.” The clerk rubbed his nose, “Stop talking nonsense and bring the money over quickly. If you don’t obey me, I’ll go back and tell our boss to have the government officials arrest you!”

Shopkeeper Song’s brother-in-law was a constable in the yamen.

Because of his seniority, people in the county yamen respect him. Even Lord Ye often gave him some face.

Liu Wuwan was so angry that his face turned the color of pig liver. “You bastard, trying to scare your grandpa with that? Do you think your grandpa was scared into being this way?”

Ruffians and hooligans were most afraid of officials.

Ming Yuxuan had been open for so many years, and there had never been any thugs or hooligans causing trouble, and it was because of this relationship.

The guy knew it very well, and now he put his hands on his hips, “I don’t know if you were scared or not, I just know that if you don’t give it to us, don’t blame us for being rude!”

Liu Wuwan clenched his fists, and seeing that there was no one around, he punched the guy in the face.

The guy was caught off guard and felt pain on his face followed by a hot stream flowing out of his nose.

He touched it and it was all bright red!

“How dare you hit me!” the guy shouted, “I’m going to report it to the police!”

“I’ve already beaten you, and you’re still asking if you dare. You’re really an idiot!” Liu Wuwan’s fists rained down on the waiter. “Go ahead. If you go, I’ll say that you’re making false accusations without any evidence. Let’s see what you can do!”

So what if his relative was a yamen chief? He was still a thug!

Could he be afraid of the yamen?
