55 Fast and furious (2/2)
Since they were his customers, Wang Ming tried to be strict but also respectful. He is an owner of a restaurant, he couldn't swear at them or use violence unless he had to.
Hearing and looking at Wang Ming's and Louzheng's faces, the customers felt fear, especially the small kids. But seeing that Wang Ming instantly eased up and smiled, the customers also eased up. What Wang Ming had said was very reasonable, so the customers listened to him and didn't argue anymore. The people who didn't have a table all got their takeaway and walked away happily. Their goal was just to get the food sitting there to eat or not didn't matter.
After this, Wang Ming and Louzheng could finally work as normal again. Wang Ming kept on cutting the meat and serving with rice and vegetables. He didn't have too much time to talk with all his customers since there were a lot more take away orders today than yesterday.
But one thing Wang Ming noticed fast is that he was rapidly running out of pork belly again. They were only 2 hours in service this time. But he only had 1/4 of the meat remaining. The reason was because there were a lot more takeaway customers today. They had only served roughly 50 portions at the tables, but double that for takeaway. This meant that they would have to stop service early today also, this was something that was way out of Wang Ming's expectations.
The reason for such a huge spike in customers, is because of Uncle Hou and Uncle Fu. They had already started to spread the news about Wang Ming's pork belly, which they meant is the best in FenZhong city, maybe even in China.
Wang Ming would have to make changes on the pork belly amount again, at this rate he would probably have to at least cook 500 (226kgs) pounds of pork belly a day. He didn't know if he could do it himself, but he would put in all the effort possible to make it happen.
After another half hour, Wang Ming had to close the restaurant again. The customers didn't take it hard today, seems like the news had spread from yesterday also that he closed shop early. Which made Wang Ming happy, since it was one less problem for him to deal with.
Though one thing he had forgotten was all the reporters still sitting outside. The reporter that came with the plan to stand inline and wait got so furious since he was the next customer inline. He had smelled the delicious food for over 3 hours, making him completely forgetting about his job, he only wanted to eat now. But then the shop suddenly closed, how could he not get angry.
But controlling himself he turned back to the professional reporter he is and instantly got to business.
”Mister Wang Ming, could we please have some of your time now, to ask you some questions about your restaurant? This could be very beneficial to your restaurant!”
Hearing what he said, Wang Ming couldn't help but sigh. Wang Ming didn't like things like this, he liked to relax cook food and do whatever he wanted. But knowing this would be good for his restaurant, he could only grit his teeth and do the interviews/questions.
Though what Wang Ming didn't know was, this is only a small problem he will need to deal with. The storm was coming and it would hit fast and furious.
