Naruto: Big Foodie - Chapter 1367
Sure enough, the other party did not call again. After arriving home, Wang Xiaoming called the other party, and the other party said that the deposit was too expensive and might not belong to his family. Wang Xiaoming didn’t give in, because this matter made him feel unreliable, it was just a joke.
The next day, Wang Xiaoming received another call to order a banquet, and the other party said, “My dad’s birthday is on the ninth day, and he wants to have a banquet with twenty tables. There are relatives in the family who come back from the United States. We need to be more lavish, and the price is not a problem. The ingredients must be purchased according to the standards I require, and I cannot give money if they cannot meet the requirements.”
Wang Xiaoming asked him, “What kind of ingredients do you need, sir?”
He said to Convenience: “I heard that the Buddha Jumps over the Wall in your store is doing very well, and Buddha Jumps over the Wall is definitely what you want. In addition, I want to import sea crabs, lobsters and salmon, all of which are fresh. As for the price, it is up to you. .”
Wang Xiaoming held the microphone and asked Yang Ming, “This person wants freshly imported sea crabs, lobsters and salmon, can we get them?”
Yang Ming frowned: “Not here, at least you have to go to the city, or even the provincial capital to buy it.”
The provincial capital is not near here, so you have to buy it at least two days in advance. Wang Xiaoming said to the other party: “Sir, if you are sincere, we can meet and discuss in detail, what do you think?”
“Row.”
Wang Xiaoming hung up the phone and went to the store with Yang Ming, waiting for the other party to come over. The other party arrived soon. He was a young man in his twenties. After he came in, he didn’t dislike the small storefront of his store. He was just discussing the menu. .
Yang Ming and Wang Xiaoming frowned upon hearing this. They made a preliminary budget in their hearts. According to this person’s request, they couldn’t get a table without 10,000 or 20,000 yuan. If they set up 20 tables, that would be 300,000 to 400,000 yuan, which is really extravagant. of. Is this really here to book a banquet, or is it just a joke?
The other party finally stopped, looked at the menu written down by Wang Xiaoming, stretched his neck and looked at it: “How many are there?”
Wang Xiaoming said: “Just the imported seafood you mentioned, there are already more than ten courses.”
The other party nodded: “Yes, the domestic seafood is seriously polluted, which makes people worry. I have to import it. You can find a way to get it for me.”
Yang Ming said: “We can’t do this, you should go elsewhere.”
The other party was taken aback: “Ah? Isn’t it called Haibawang here? Can’t even hold such a table of seafood feast?”
Yang Ming said: “If you have a channel, you can get it and I will help you to do it. Only the processing fee will be charged, otherwise it will follow my menu.”
There was a dissatisfied look on the other party’s face, but he still said: “Okay, if there are too many, then less, at least a few imported seafood, king crab, American lobster, Norwegian salmon, anyway, the standard of each table, All you need is at least 10,000 yuan per table.”
Wang Xiaoming said: “Sir, our rule here is that a 20% advance must be paid for reservations.”
The other party said: “The advance payment means that I will pay first before I eat, right? It can be paid, it doesn’t matter if it is a little more, but it must be written in the contract. If you don’t meet my standards, or you can’t hold the banquet as scheduled, Your shop is going to pay me double the money, isn’t that right?”
Wang Xiaoming nodded: “Yes, it is like this. If the banquet cannot be hosted as scheduled, the compensation should be paid.”
“Well, let’s sign the contract. It’s written in black and white, so it’s more reassuring.” The other party said.
Wang Xiaoming said: “We will sign the contract after we have drawn up the menu, negotiated the price, and everything is confirmed.”
“How long will that take?”
“If you want, it’s the same as waiting here. We need to discuss the menu here.”
Wang Xiaoming and Yang Ming went upstairs to discuss the menu and price. Yang Ming said, “This person sounds as unreliable as the person who called you yesterday.”
Wang Xiaoming also nodded: “I also feel a little bit of a joke. But he has to pay a deposit, why is he still playing tricks?”
Yang Ming pointed at the table with his finger: “He just mentioned the breach of contract. It is impossible for us to breach the contract. What if he breached the contract?”
“We have nothing to lose.”
Yang Ming smiled: “You think too simply, a banquet of 200,000 yuan will cost at least 100,000 yuan. If we have everything ready and all the ingredients are in the pot and on the cutting board, if he doesn’t come to eat ,How to do?”
Thinking of this, Wang Xiaoming couldn’t help but widen his eyes. He doesn’t have tens of thousands of dollars on hand now. It’s actually a bit reluctant to host this person’s banquet. Some things need to be paid on credit first. Who do you sell things to? One by one for sale on the street?
“Negotiate with him about charging more for the deposit?” Wang Xiaoming asked.
Yang Ming shook his head: “More than 20% is unreasonable, and he may not agree.”
Wang Xiaoming frowned: “How can you make fun of the wedding?”
Yang Ming said: “Can’t you find out after investigating?”
Wang Xiaoming looked at Yang Ming and gave a thumbs up: “Yes.”
Next, the two quickly negotiated the menu. According to the request of the other party, they selected a few imported seafood and set the price. The price per table was 10,800. The man looked at the menu and the price, but he didn’t Say more, then very readily sign the contract and pay the deposit.
Wang Xiaoming looked at the address copied from the other party’s ID card: “Let’s go check it out?”
Yang Ming said: “Let Boss Zhong help us to check. He is more professional than us in this kind of thing. We have to prepare the ingredients. He said that it is the ninth day, and today is the sixth day. If we don’t hurry up, it will be too late.”
“If it’s a scam, aren’t we prepared for nothing?” Wang Xiaoming asked.
“Even if it’s a scam~www.mtlnovel.com~ we have to prepare, otherwise we have to pay him liquidated damages.” Yang Ming said.
Wang Xiaoming thought about it too, but he didn’t expect that hosting a banquet would be so risky. He quickly called Zhong Yanhong and asked him to help, Zhong Yanhong promised to help investigate.
Wang Xiaoming and Yang Ming first went to the local seafood market, wanting the other party to buy imported seafood through the purchase channel, but found that the other party did not do the import business at all. As a last resort, they had to go to the seafood market in the city again the next day. I only ordered king crab, but no lobster and salmon. It was only done by asking the owner of the seafood stall to help order from the provincial capital.
Just after ordering here, there was news from Zhong Yanhong, saying that the guy who signed the contract had no birthdays or weddings, so this was 100% a scam.
Wang Xiaoming said: “Then we shouldn’t order imported seafood here, right?” If you buy something that costs a few hundred yuan a pound, if you can’t use it, it’s fresh, and that’s a lot of money.
Yang Ming said: “It doesn’t matter, it’s all ordered. I won’t let these things go to waste.”
