Chapter 358 (2/2)
It was like losing face in foreign countries and that all his fellow countrymen were cheating others.
That made Liu Hui feel very bad with Yuan Zhou.
“You’d better pray your craftsmanship could deserve the price. Otherwise, you can never settle this problem just by compensating the money.” Liu Hui said to Yuan Zhou with a tough tone.
“Thank you for your care.” Yuan Zhou nodded his head naturally and then went back to the kitchen to cook.
Liu Hui then got choked.
“This person is so wildly arrogant. What does he want to do to Boss Yuan?” A customer said with contempt.
“Yeah. The foreigner didn’t even say anything, but this man jumped up.” Another customer also said discontentedly.
“He really takes himself to be somebody. No matter how Boss Yuan receives the money, he doesn’t cheat others and states the prices clearly on the menu.” Other customers stood up for Yuan Zhou one after another.
It was bustling in the restaurant while outside, it was also quite boisterous.
Almost all customers knew that Boss Yuan received money like that. Most of them agreed to that while a small proportion of people felt it would result in the Beau of Commodity Price’s investigation.
They didn’t really mind the authority doing that. But if Yuan Zhou’s restaurant suspended business, where they should go to have meals?
“Why does Boss Yuan receive money like that?” A customer asked another person beside him curiously.
“I think you are thinking too much. He’s an American and of course he has to pay US dollars. If he pays RMB, it’s much too cheap for him.” The customer being asked directly agreed to Boss Yuan’s practice recklessly.
“That makes sense. We pay a lot of money to change US dollars.” The customer nodded approvingly.
“Yes. The actual purchasing power of one dollar in USA is almost same to one RMB in China.” A customer sighed with emotion.
“Right. If Boss Yuan sets the USD price according to the actual exchange rate, this guy can spend only dozens of cents to eat same to us.” The customer said discontentedly.
“You are right. Boss Yuan is right by doing that.” Other customers echoed and nodded their head continuously.
“That reminds me of a joke. An American came to China for tour.” When the customer said that, he paused a while. Seeing all were looking at him, he continued.
“It was in 2010 when this American traveled to our country. At that time, the exchange rate was 6.8. He changed 680,000 RMB with 100,000 USD.”
Having slightly paused, he continued to say.
“He spent 180,000 RMB for one year and had a good time. When he went back to USA in 2011, he went to the bank to change USD. As the exchange rate rose to 5 at that time, this American changed 100,000 USD again with the remaining 500,000 RMB. When he came, he brought 1000,000 USD with him; when he went back, he still had 100,000 USD. Therefore, he went back to USA happily.”
“It can’t be true.” Other customers felt it unbelievable.
“How can’t it be true? You can calculate for yourself if it’s true.” The customer who was telling the story let out a humph.
“It feel that it is so unscientific.” After calculating, they found it really to be true.
“There’s one more story. Listen to me carefully.” That customer continued to say.
“Another American heard about that and then wanted to imitate him. He also exchanged 680,000 RMB with 100,000 USD. He used 500,000 RMB to buy an apartment and enjoyed himself with the remaining 180,000 USD.”
“When he prepared to go back in the end, he directly sold the apartment as it can’t be taken away. From the apartment, he got 200,000 USD only. At last, the American told me complacently that he wasn’t having fun, but earning money by having fun.”
“I want to swear.” A customer laughed scornfully.
The customer who told the story continued saying, “Do you think it’s over? Not yet. The key point is that some people are even very happy, because GDP increases.”
“Although it’s just a joke, I feel that Boss Yuan is right.” A customer nodded his head with a smile.
“We never knew that Boss Yuan was a young cynic. I suddenly feel Boss Yuan is so awesome and have decided to order one more dish later,” the customer said with a determined expression.
“How will you explain that to your girlfriend,” someone asked faintly beside him.
“Our friendship ends now.” He turned his head indignantly, indicating that he didn’t want to talk to anybody.
Unconsciously, Yuan Zhou received a pile of Nice Guy Cards again. Besides, the method of receiving money created much of a stir on the internet…
