In response to Liu Dahua's expression, Lin Dong stopped cooperating. He picked up the wine glass, took a sip, then picked up a chopstick and started drinking by himself. Apparently, he planned to make plans for Ma Chun's matter afterwards and resolutely Don't let anyone find an opportunity to take advantage of it.
Everyone was a little disappointed. Shopkeeper Lin was not stupid enough to question Ma Chun on the spot.
With good wine and good food, Lin Dong ate slowly. He neither greeted the guests at the table nor had any intention of raising a glass to invite them. He just ate and drank slowly and happily by himself, not caring about the guests at all. colleagues in their eyes.
The bosses of top restaurants are helpless. Shopkeeper Lin is neither smart nor stupid, and he is a standard small restaurant owner. However, what they despise most now is that Lin Dong's ability is only at the level of a small restaurant owner.
¡°If I were smarter, I would definitely put the overall situation first, endure the moment of anger, let them take the initiative, and wait until they found out and knew the plans of the major top restaurants before making any plans. If it is indeed a fatal blow to Linji Inn, then we have to accept the compromise and continue to endure it. If you are not afraid, it is not too late to fight back. After all, this is Linji Inn. You are not afraid of the plans of major top restaurants. It is too easy to get back the place. You can ask the waiter to serve a few pots of well water as fine wine, or ask the waiter serving food to deliberately If you want to go into battle in person, just say a few words of sarcasm and drive people away yourself, and you can get back in any situation.
????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? The top restaurant owners also have a lot of benefits, and it's naturally the best to be able to compromise. If you are not afraid, it means that Lin Ji Inn must have something to back it up. Everyone can discuss it and find out Lin Kee Inn¡¯s power first and then find a way to deal with it.
????????????????????? Otherwise, shopkeeper Lin would be stupid, ignore it, and fall out on the spot. In this case, everyone will speak more viciously, completely irritating Shopkeeper Lin.
Once a person is provoked, things become much easier to handle. There are fifteen people with fifteen mouths, and they are all articulate and thoughtful people. It is undoubtedly not difficult to get something valuable out of Shopkeeper Lin when he is angry.
However, Lin Dong¡¯s ability was so low, which hurt everyone.
Knowing that everyone is prepared, it is obvious that there are any big plans, but they still can't stand it in their hearts.
I couldn't bear this tone, and I knew that no one could mess with him. I didn't get completely mad and kept a certain calmness. This was like disrupting the countermeasures that everyone had discussed when they came.
After a moment of silence, the fifteen restaurant giants exchanged glances with each other. Zhang Qinglin, the owner of Qinghui Restaurant, raised his glass to Lin Dong with a smile and said, "Shopkeeper Lin, the food and wine in your inn are really extraordinary. Especially the two signature dishes of energetic beef balls and maple leaves stewed soft-shelled turtle, Zhang has eaten a lot of good dishes, and he can't put it down."
"I think these three spicy dishes are the best of the best, enough to rank at the top of the best." Dong Weilang, the owner of Chenguang Restaurant, said with a smile: "I have always liked spicy food. I thought that I would never be able to taste it in this life. There are spicy dishes that are more delicious than the Tianpin Yi La at our Chenguang Restaurant. After tasting these three spicy dishes today, I realized that there are people outside the world. In the past, it was just that I, Dong, was ignorant. These three spicy dishes are spicy. It¡¯s so spicy that people can¡¯t stop eating it. If I had known that Lin Kee Inn had such a delicious dish, Dong would have come over to try it.¡±
"Actually, I think this roasted white wind beast is the real one that makes people want to stop." Jiang Fang, owner of Yangfan Restaurant, said with a smile: "It melts in your mouth, is delicious and fresh, leaves a fragrant taste in your mouth, and leaves you with endless aftertaste. Weimei Yangfan Restaurant also has several good barbecue dishes, but compared with this one, Jiang will never be able to boast about the barbecue in his restaurant again."
Everyone started commenting and praising the characteristics of the food and wine on the table. They had obviously decided to change their strategy and use the method of adulation to praise Lin Dong. Once you are in a state of ecstasy, your mental state is not much better than when you are angry. If you try one trick, you will definitely be able to get something useful out of it.
Unfortunately, they were disappointed once again. Lin Dong immediately raised his glass to everyone: "You guys are so ridiculous, Lin Dong cannot deserve it. You are all seniors in the restaurant industry and have been immersed in the restaurant industry for decades, how can you Lin Dong, a younger generation, can compare with him. With a glass of wine, Lin Dong also asks all the seniors to take care of him and leave a way for Lin Ji Inn to survive. Lin Dong does not have high requirements, and he will be satisfied if he can make a living."
Everyone is speechless. Is this shopkeeper Lin too humble? They didn't intend to make Lin Dong feel happy with just one sentence, but for ordinary people, after hearing so many compliments, they should show some pride on their faces. In this case, they could prescribe the right medicine and slowly introduce Lin Dong to the feeling of being happy with each sentence. within the realm.
Lin ?There is obviously no pride in their expressions, let alone pride. No matter how many plans they have in mind, they cannot make accurate judgments at the moment.
?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? out of the public's impression of Lin Dong is another, flattering or humiliating.
Everyone was a little disappointed and a little annoyed that they had used the wrong method. Having established a friendship with King Qingliu, it is normal for him to develop an attitude of being indifferent to favors and humiliations. Otherwise, it would be enough to drive Shopkeeper Lin crazy with joy. If it were them, if they could win the favor of King Qingliu, they would be so happy that they would be so excited every day that they don't even know their last name. As time passes, I will no longer feel the admiration of some colleagues.
Compared with the status of King Qingliu, the colleagues here, even the Maple Forest Restaurant who has contacts with the third prince, are not worth mentioning.
They exchanged glances again, and everyone's expressions became reserved. One by one, they showed off the airs of old-timers and the aura of wealthy people in the capital, and looked at Lin Dong calmly. The wine glass in his hand was put down, and no one got up to be polite to Lin Dong.
Lin Dong was a little unhappy, although he had control over the attitudes of these top restaurant owners. But after being polite, these people just show off their faces. Doesn't this mean that they are looking for ridicule for nothing?
"Everyone, Lin still has some things to do. If there is something serious, please bring it up as soon as possible. If there is no serious matter, I will forgive Lin for not being able to accompany him." Lin Dong was too lazy to continue to intrigue, so he simply pointed out the matter.
"If something happens, Shopkeeper Lin, just go ahead and get busy!" Everyone obviously did not accept Lin Dong's tactics. They were confident that they had figured out Lin Dong's character and mind, and naturally they would not give the initiative to Lin Dong.
Lin Dong's attitude was indeed as everyone expected. He was furious, but he never dared to wave his sleeves and leave, fearing that everyone would have some great tricks that would not be used. The only thing he could do was to sit down angrily, close his eyes tightly, and adopt a cold and cold attitude.
Everyone smiled at each other and drank and ate. Of course, their eyes drifted to Lin Dong from time to time to observe his expression. They didn't want to fall out, nor did they want to force Lin Dong away. The price they had agreed upon was too high. What they hoped for most was that Lin Kee Inn could compromise, share the spoils, and win without a fight.
Ling Weifeng glanced at Lin Dong, drinking wine and eating vegetables casually. From beginning to end, he was observing Lin Dong, observing his every move and every expression on his face. The result made him feel extremely awe-inspiring.
This shopkeeper Lin is indeed not an extraordinary person. He is confident that he can completely control fifteen top restaurants.
Others can¡¯t see Lin Dong¡¯s thoughts, but Ling Weifeng can. Shopkeeper Lin has been deliberately attracting fifteen top restaurants into his pocket from beginning to end. The main purpose of this pocket is to allow the fifteen large restaurants to continue to generate huge consumption until they are completely destroyed. Until it is weakened to a level similar to that of an ordinary restaurant.
Ling Weifeng asked himself that he was not strong enough to be an enemy of so many top restaurants. No one here is a fuel-saving lamp. The combined efforts of everyone, coupled with the sharing of resources and the combination of financial resources, are so powerful that when Maple Forest Restaurant relied on information from the Chamber of Commerce to suppress large-scale restaurants across the country, only the capital city was left out.
One of the reasons why it is not advisable to be too showy at the emperor's feet, lest it attract the attention of Emperor Qianwei. The bigger reason is that Ling Weifeng is not confident that he can suppress all the top restaurants in one fell swoop.
Shopkeeper Lin in front of him is obviously guiding the top restaurants to use more violent methods. Ling Weifeng didn't believe that Lin Dong was the kind of arrogant person who didn't take others seriously, but he also couldn't figure out where Lin Dong had such confidence.
This is the top restaurant in the entire capital. The energy it unleashes is enough to shake up the business community in the capital. In fact, this shock could even spread to the imperial court.
In the box, everyone had their own thoughts, no one paid attention to anyone, and the atmosphere fell into a trough again.
For a long time, the bosses of the fifteen big restaurants seemed to have a common understanding. Suddenly they all took their attention away from the food and wine, and began to make eye contact with each other again.
"Shopkeeper Lin, it's getting late. I think it's time for us to say goodbye." Peng Kun, the owner of Qiuwu Restaurant, stood up, and everyone also stood up and handed over.
Lin Dong opened his eyes and hesitated to speak, but his anger obviously took over and he couldn't say anything.
"By the way, Shopkeeper Lin, Li's family members have always praised the spirit stone fans at Lin Ji Inn. I wonder if we can sell some to Li at a low price?" Li Yiliang, the owner of Yanheng Restaurant, suddenly said.
"How much?" Lin Dong's expression softened a little.
"Every month" Li Yiliang wrote lightly: "A thousand units!"
"What's the price?" Lin Dong asked.
"I asked someone to calculate the cost of the Lingshi Fan. It's about two hundred yuan. Let me see, how about three hundred yuan?" Li Yiliang said with a smile: "Favours are favors, business is business, shopkeeper Lin should make money when it's time." , you still have to make money.¡±
Lin Dong was happy. He found that he could shout the word "get out" later.
There is no doubt that the bosses of the major top restaurants have great confidence in the discussed plan. Otherwise, it would not be possible for just one family to make such a big statement.
"Similarly, if just one family makes such a big request, the fifteen families combined will undoubtedly eat up the Linji Inn to the bones. A smart person will definitely calculate the stakes after knowing the plans of fifteen top restaurants and knowing that they are unable to resist. But ordinary people, even if they know they are unable to resist, are definitely not willing to be swallowed up like this.
It is common sense to let out the breath that you have been holding back.
