Just as the seasoning was about to be poured into Qi Xiao's bowl, Qi Xiao flicked his middle finger upwards, directly sending the bowl flying.
The fourth brother was dumbfounded.
A spoonful of seasoning spilled all over the floor.
"Sorry, my hand trembled a bit."
The manager heard the noise and rushed over, quickly apologizing to Qi Xiao, then instructed the fourth brother to clean it up.
This is truly a black-hearted shop, constantly trying to make guests break rules.
Qi Xiao glanced at the fourth brother who was crouching on the ground cleaning, and got a new portion of seasoning.
Returning to his seat, the hotpot base had already arrived.
One red and one white, a Double-boiled hot pot .
【Rule 2: Do not blanch vegetables in the red section of the Yuan Yang Hotpot.】
Various hotpot ingredients were also brought over in turns.
Qi Xiao scanned them, thankfully, this amount was manageable.
If there was too much, he would have to consider using his jie bracelet.
The Station Announcement said that he could only get a Level 3 treasure chest after finishing the set meal, so it was best not to take risks.
Anyway, there was no time limit, so he could eat slowly.
"Hello sir, what would you like to drink?"
【Rule 1: Do not add water yourself. When the waiter adds water for you, choose orange juice.】
"Orange juice, thank you, beautiful lady."
"You're welcome, feel free to call me if you need anything."
There were still many people dining in the shop, and Qi Xiao didn't know if they were real people or NPCs.
Qi Xiao picked up a plate of sliced lamb and poured it all directly into the pot.
......
"Hey, Second Brother, what's today's new tasting dish?"
"Pulled, pulled, pulled..."
"Never mind, I'll go see for myself."
The third brother came to the back kitchen and saw a plate of something that looked like sea cucumber, covered with a layer of yellow, thick sauce.
After getting closer.
"Holy crap, pulled candied rebar? Did the Minister of Justice invent a new dish again?"
The third brother recalled the day they arrived, a waiter brought a plate of raw large intestine and said it was a new product for them to try.
They naturally refused, and four train coins were gone just like that.
This pulled candied rebar is quite ruthless too.
"Xiaoyu, quick, today's new product is out. Help your brother, take it to Table 10 first. Tomorrow, brother will give you half a steamed bun."
"Really? You won't lie to me."
"If I lie to you, I'm a son of a dog."
The third brother patted his chest and guaranteed.
Xiaoyu happily picked up the plate and walked towards Table 10.
The third brother and the fourth brother hid in a corner, craning their necks to peek at Qi Xiao.
Hidden Rule Five of the shop: If the waiter asks you to try a new product, do not refuse.
How do you eat rebar? He'll definitely refuse.
Now he'll have to break the rules, hmph hmph hmph.
As soon as Xiaoyu left, Zhang Baobao rushed into the back kitchen.
"What's going on? Why isn't Tingyuxuan's pulled candied rebar ready yet? The customer is so anxious they're overloaded!"
"It's been ready for a while, it's right there. Hey, didn't you take it?"
Zhang Baobao had a face full of question marks, he was sweating profusely with anxiety, then the second brother came over:
"Boss, boss, boss, over, over there."
Zhang Baobao followed the second brother's finger and saw Xiaoyu carrying a plate towards Qi Xiao.
The plate contained the pulled candied rebar.
Holy crap.
He quickly rushed out.
Qi Xiao was blanching spinach when a waiter came over with a plate of something dark and unappetizing.
"Hello sir, this is our..."
Before Xiaoyu could finish speaking, Zhang Baobao darted out from the side and snatched the plate.
He didn't stop for a moment, turned around, and hurried away.
Qi Xiao saw the fleeting face and felt that this person looked a bit familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen him.
"Uh, it's nothing, sir."
Xiaoyu turned to leave.
"Wait." Qi Xiao called out to her, "Help me put some shrimp paste in."
【Rule 4: Do not put shrimp paste in yourself.】
......
"Isn't that the boss? Why did he snatch the rebar? What's going on?"
"I don't know."
The third and fourth brothers stared at each other.
"What's going on? Why is Xiaoyu helping him put in shrimp paste?! What the hell is she doing?!"
"What are you two doing?!"
The manager appeared from behind them and kicked each of them.
"Everyone else is busy, and you two are slacking off here!"
"Now go get to work! You, go clean the toilet! A customer threw up in the toilet!"
......
"Damn it, this idiotic manager, only knows how to be harsh on us."
"Hey, hey, hey, what are you doing? It's full, and you're still pouring."
"Sorry, sorry."
The third brother quickly apologized to the customer.
Heh heh, is the plum juice delicious? One train coin gone.
Speaking of which, that kid is so fond of orange juice? He's had several glasses of orange juice.
Is he lucky or just guessing?
The third brother came to the back kitchen, exchanged his apron for a red one, and then strolled over to Qi Xiao.
"Handsome, would you like some more orange juice?"
Hmm? A waiter in a red apron?
【Rule 7: If a waiter wearing a red apron adds water for you, choose plum juice.】
Qi Xiao raised his hand to cover the cup: "A glass of plum juice."
The third brother maintained his smile and poured Qi Xiao a glass of plum juice.
This guy, what's going on?
Why does he always choose correctly?
Qi Xiao drank the plum juice, it was sour and refreshing, cutting through the greasiness.
Hiss, one cold, one hot, his stomach felt a bit uncomfortable.
He thought he could hold it until he finished eating without going to the toilet, but he couldn't hold on.
In the restroom.
The fourth brother was wiping the toilet.
"Damn it, not only did they throw up everywhere, they also pooped everywhere! These people are truly despicable!"
He wiped his sweat, wondering how the third brother was doing.
I have to guard this place. If Qi Xiao comes over, I'll trick him into using the leftmost stall!
Hidden Rule Eight of the shop: Do not use the leftmost stall in the restroom.
Speak of the devil, Qi Xiao poked his head in.
"Hey, aren't you the one who messed with the seasoning? Why are you scrubbing toilets here?"
"Ah, our shop believes in the more capable working more, and earning more, ha, haha."
The fourth brother scratched the back of his head.
"Please use this one, this stall is clean."
The fourth brother pulled open the door to the leftmost toilet, and it was indeed clean inside.
"Then I won't be polite!"
A Fat Man rushed in, and without a word, squeezed inside.
"Hey, hey, hey, brother, he was here first..."
"Get lost, you stinky worker!"
The Fat Man pushed the fourth brother aside, and Qi Xiao directly moved to the side to let him pass.
【Rule 8: Do not use the leftmost stall in the restroom.】
【Rule 9: Do not get into conflicts with others in the shop.】
The Fat Man snorted, squeezed into the toilet, and locked the door from the inside.
A torrential release.
It stank so bad.
Qi Xiao covered his nose, and the fourth brother also raised his hand to cover his nose.
Qi Xiao pointed at the fourth brother's glove:
"You have poop on your glove."
The fourth brother: ???
After the Fat Man left, Qi Xiao had a satisfying bowel movement in the middle toilet.
Returning to his seat, Qi Xiao found that his chopsticks had fallen to the floor.
【Rule 6: If your chopsticks fall to the floor, absolutely do not pick them up yourself. Ask the waiter to get you a new pair.】
Why would the chopsticks fall for no reason? Someone deliberately made them fall.
Qi Xiao called a waiter to bring new chopsticks.
Just like that, Qi Xiao finished his hotpot without any major incidents. After resting for a while, he got up and went to the cashier to pay the bill.
Only one rule left.
【Rule 10: Please be sure to pay before leaving.】
Once he paid, he could get the Level 3 treasure chest!
Qi Xiao pulled out a train coin and placed it on the table.
"Bill, please."
Just then, the manager suddenly rushed out, shouting:
"The shop manager is here, the shop manager is here! Quick, quick, quick, line up! Line up!"
"Shop manager?"
"Quick, quick, quick, the shop manager is here."
All the staff in the shop, including the manager, lined up neatly and uniformly said:
"Good day, Shop Manager!"
Qi Xiao looked towards the door; the person who arrived was a tall woman.
She was wearing a black, cinched-waist dress, paired with high heels and a handbag of the same color.
The most striking thing was the wide-brimmed hat on her head.
The hat was so large that it covered her entire face.
Although the dress covered most of her body, her slender fingers, the smooth lines of her insteps, and the faintly visible collarbones beneath the black mesh skirt, all indicated that she was a top-notch beauty.
Tap, tap, tap.
As her high heels clicked on the floor, Qi Xiao could even hear a sense of elegance and luxury from the sound.
