Chapter 1697: Chapter 1783: Checking Out
Looking at his boss, Hu Shulin now somewhat understood what Su Xuan was trying to do. After all this time, it seemed this guy wanted that guy to have a go at the people here, but Hu Shulin thought randomly changing the menu might be a bit too crude of a method.
"I don’t know about others, but this guy will definitely do it."
Su Xuan said confidently, thinking to himself that this interesting guy was actually quite amusing. Hua Manlou was a person full of self-confidence but with little ability. Su Xuan could tell that this guy was probably running out of money.
"Boss, you’ve really got a set of tricks up your sleeve!"
Hu Shulin was already utterly impressed with this guy, who always managed to come up with such bizarre ideas.
In the ensuing time, this young master definitely became the most dashing person in the hotel today. After all, being able to order so many high-end dishes made him the most outstanding figure at the Cape of Good Hope Club.
Everyone at Cape of Good Hope treated this fellow like a little God of Wealth and even sent out a dozen beauties to dance for him, making the young master feel absolutely unparalleled and wonderful.
As they were almost done eating, Hua Manlou took a pack of cigars from the table, lit one up, and said,
"Waiter, the bill!"
Soon, an accountant came over with a calculator, furiously typing away while looking at the young master with an arrogant expression.
"Did you two get enough to eat today?"
"We’re full, young master, sorry to have you spend so much today!"
The two guys felt a bit embarrassed, but today’s food was indeed delicious.
"Sir, the total is five hundred thousand. Would you like to pay by card or cash?"
"Cash? Wait, how much did you say?"
The young master instinctively said cash but immediately sensed something was off. Did he hear it wrong? Five hundred thousand, how was that calculated?
"Five hundred thousand RMB!"
The accountant explained.
"Bang!"
Hua Manlou immediately grabbed a bottle of wine and smashed it on the ground, angrily saying,
"Damn it, is this a black shop? Why don’t you go rob a bank instead for five hundred thousand!"
Hua Manlou felt these people must be out of their minds. Were they crazy for money, asking for five hundred thousand? He really couldn’t understand what this guy was thinking.
"Say that again, I dare you!"
Hua Manlou said angrily. In his view, these people were trying to extort him just because he arrived in a luxury car. Clearly, the menu prices only added up to a little over a thousand. Hua Manlou felt quite confident in his mental arithmetic skills.
"Sir, all of our prices are clearly marked, with no deception for young or old!"
The accountant was a bit perplexed by Jia Hui’s reaction.
"No deception, my ass! You idiot, do you know who I am? I’m known as the Divine Calculator. Do your sums compare to mine? I’ve been able to multiply three-digit numbers since I was five. You think you can con me? Believe it or not, I’ll thrash you!"
Hua Manlou said arrogantly. The accountant was instantly at a loss, but he rechecked with his calculator. Was it possible he really made a mistake? After verifying it once more, he actually found out he’d made an error.
"Um, sir, I’m really sorry..."
"Now you realize your mistake, right? Damn it, I’ve told you all that you’re careless at work. I’m the Little Genius. None of you can outdo my calculations."
Hua Manlou said proudly.
"Uh... sir, really sorry, I keyed in a few wrong numbers earlier. The total here is five hundred and twenty-eight thousand!"
The waiter assassin was also sweating a bit, realizing he almost misquoted a dish’s price. Almost costing himself over 20,000 yuan. If it was a calculation error, it would have been a catastrophe. Considering his chronic carelessness, which had already cost him a month’s salary before, this time he nearly lost a year’s salary. Fortunately, this silly young master insisted on recalculating, or he would’ve been really screwed.
"How much! You think I’m an easy mark, huh!"
In that instant, Hua Manlou really blew up, thinking, damn it, why don’t you just go die, quoting five hundred and twenty-eight thousand.
"Well... sir, I have triple-checked it, and it seems correct!"
The accountant was afraid of making another mistake, so he recalculated once more to ensure no errors, inwardly cursing that he might be a bit careless, but surely not that careless, right?
"Screw you, get your manager here! Did your P.E. teacher teach you math?"
Hua Manlou said as he spun around, kicking the accountant away, sending him crashing several meters away. The accountant luckily landed on a trash can, or his pelvis might have been shattered.
"Damn it, dare to scam me like this. Didn’t you hear I was known as a scholastic genius? I’ve never slipped up multiplying three-digit numbers, and yet you dare to con me!"
"Young master, we have to be more low-key!"
Hua Manlou’s two bodyguards quickly said, thinking as this was their first visit here, they should remain more restrained. Being this high-profile wasn’t advisable.
"I was already very low-key. Let me tell you, if it were back before, I would’ve sent him flying with one kick for such arrogance and disregard for me."
"Gentlemen, I apologize for this. I’m the floor manager here, my name is Huang Lixing. You can call me Brother Xing."
The speaker was a man in his twenties with a buzz cut. Seeing him, Su Xuan let out a cold chuckle and said,
"Haotian Sword!"
"Yes, this person is adopted by Qingzhu Gang, named Huang Lixing. Back then, he brought over a hundred people to chop us three brothers into mince!"
Seeing this guy, Hu Shulin instantly exuded a surging, intense killing aura all over, Su Xuan gently patted his shoulder, softly saying,
"No need to lose your temper, why get so easily agitated young man?"
Su Xuan said with a faint smile. After he finished speaking, the killing aura around Hu Shulin vanished without a trace.
"Brother Xing, I really don’t know where this guy gets his confidence from. Just watch, in less than three minutes, Hua Manlou will surely beat this Brother Xing to the point he won’t even recognize himself!"
Su Xuan said quite calmly. After he finished speaking, sure enough, Hua Manlou slammed the table, and with a wave of his hand, a wine cup spun up into the air, then swooshed out, hitting one of the henchmen’s knees with a smack. The man immediately kneeled on the ground.
