Chapter 699 - The Aura of A Loser (1/2)

“Well, I’ll personally try and see how much has the quality of the food here dropped,” Unworried Mulberry also joined the line, waiting to confirm his guess.

As someone who had arrived early, he managed to get a spot at the front part of the line.

Unworried Mulberry watched on as Yuan Zhou entered the restaurant to get ready and Zhou Jia arrived at the door to keep watch on the line. When he received his number, he knew that dinner time was arriving soon.

“I hope it won’t be too bad. Otherwise, my one hour spent lining up would have been a waste,” Unworried Mulberry muttered softly.

That’s right, one hour had passed since Unworried Mulberry started lining up.

And he had only gotten the number after an hour of queuing.

“Everyone, please enter,” Zhou Jia loudly said after checking the time.

“Hu, finally we can enter,” Unworried Mulberry heaved a sigh of relief. He was already tired from standing. If it wasn’t for his profession as a journalist, he would have left long ago.

“Well, I guess the boss does have a conscience,” before the meal started, Unworried Mulberry noticed one of the good points this restaurant had. Although all the seats in the restaurant were full, it still did not feel crowded. There was still a decent distance between each table. This was much better than many other popular restaurants that would fit as many tables as they could in their shop.

“Even I feel like there are too little tables. I feel like this restaurant can fit two more tables and it will be just right.”

Unworried Mulberry was still a fair person. If he saw something good, he would acknowledge it. Whatever venue it was, whenever the crowd grew, things would get annoying. An example would be the scenic spots that were so popular which caused the people in the crowd to basically touch shoulders. At a place like that, nobody would have the mood to appreciate the scenery regardless of how scenic it was. This was the same for eating. If a slight movement would result in one touching another person, it would greatly affect the taste one felt when eating the food.

“This boss is surprisingly considerate of his customers,” Unworried Mulberry judged. He decided that for this point alone, he would hold his punches when writing his article even if the food here ended up being bad.

Just like that, Yuan Zhou was praised even though he was unaware of it. If Yuan Zhou knew that he was being praised like this, he would probably be depressed. After all, he did want to add two extra tables. Unfortunately, the system would not allow that.

“The price is as what the rumors online said. It is so expensive. A Clear Broth Noodle Soup is priced at RMB268 while a Clear Broth Noodle Soup Set is priced at RMB308. With this price, people with income below five figures are probably not willing to come and eat here.”

Unworried Mulberry was attentively studying the menu. In truth, whether one could afford the food here or whether one was willing to spend for the food here were two entirely different things. For example, those who were stingy would probably be unwilling to come and eat here even with five-figure incomes, while a rickshaw driver who only made about 3,000 RMB per month would happily spend his money here.

“Huh?” Unworried Mulberry noticed something interesting. On the menu, this line was found: Chengdu School of Sichuan Cuisine (Any dishes in the Chengdu School of Sichuan Cuisine can be ordered)

“How about the price?” Unworried Mulberry knew that regardless of how much people complained about the price here, or how much they threatened to report the price here to the authorities, nothing happened. It was because the price of all the food here was clearly displayed.

But now, not even the price was displayed anymore?

He lowered his head to continue studying the menu on the table. The menu on the table was the same as the one on the wall. Therefore, he called out to the waitress. Zhou Jia had been working here for quite some time. Therefore, she moved nimbly and spent only one minute to complete the order of the previous table and arrived before Unworried Mulberry.

“Excuse me, what do you want to order?” Zhou Jia asked.

“I spent a long time going through the menus on both the table and wall and am wondering about something. Why is there no price label for the Chengdu School of Sichuan Cuisine? How am I supposed to order from the Chengdu School of Sichuan Cuisine?” Unworried Mulberry emphasized on the fact that he had indeed looked everywhere looking for the price. He was not someone who came here to pick a fight.
