Chapter 163: Chapter 163: Ran Away with His Tail Between His Legs_1
Liu Jiameng handed the POS machine to Qin Feng.
"Enter your PIN! Don’t be afraid to enter it! And please don’t say something like you forgot it, because that would be really embarrassing."
Huang Pingliang hurriedly took over the conversation, taunting scornfully, "At a time like this, you must forget the PIN! If you enter it correctly and it shows insufficient funds, wouldn’t that be utterly humiliating?"
"Who said I forgot my PIN? How could I forget something so important? I haven’t forgotten!"
Qin Feng quickly typed his PIN into the POS machine.
"No tears until seeing the coffin! I bet that after you enter the PIN, it will definitely indicate insufficient funds."
No sooner had Huang Pingliang’s words fallen...
Beep!
Transaction successful.
The POS machine quickly began to print a receipt.
Shocked, Liu Jiameng stared at the receipt that came out.
After double-checking that the amount was correct, she looked at Qin Feng with disbelief, as if she were looking at a freak.
Could this guy really have more than 18 million available to spend on his bank card?
You should know, this is just an ordinary debit card!
It’s not even the most basic VIP card.
Huang Pingliang was also stunned.
"How... how is this possible? He’s just a lousy loser, too poor to wear anything but street stall clothes, how could he possibly have 18 million to spend? How could he?"
Huang Pingliang couldn’t believe it.
He took the receipt and started to check it over.
"It must be a problem with the POS machine; there’s no way there is 18 million in this card. Manager Liu, you better check the account quickly. Be very careful not to be deceived by this loser. There’s definitely something wrong with his bank card. Maybe his card is a hacker software that hacked your POS machine. It seems like the transaction was successful, but in reality, not a penny has come through."
Huang Pingliang refused to believe that what just happened was real, thus he made such a guess.
The POS machine had displayed a successful transaction and even printed a receipt; there was absolutely no way that was fake.
However, Liu Jiameng believed Huang Pingliang’s absurd claim.
So she called over a waiter.
"Go check if this money has been deposited?"
The waiter took the receipt to make the inquiry.
Of course, Qin Feng wasn’t going to stand there without doing anything!
He had just spent more than 18 million in hard cash; how could he let Huang Pingliang not follow suit?
So, with a grin, he said to Huang Pingliang, "Mr. Huang, we had an agreement just now to see who would spend more money. Now I’ve already spent over 18 million, so don’t chicken out! If you do chicken out, then you’ll have to go sit by the garbage can, to be classified alongside the trash."
"Chicken out? There’s no such word in my dictionary! As long as the 18 million you spent is real, not fake, I’ll order everything you did—all over again. Not only that, but I’ll also order a few more bottles of high-end liquor. Greenland Restaurant not only has ’82 Lafite but also Romane Conti. Just a single bottle costs several hundred thousand."
While Huang Pingliang was boasting, the waiter returned.
"Manager Liu, the money has been deposited. This gentleman’s card really did spend over 18 million."
The waiter’s words shocked Liu Jiameng again.
A moment ago, she had been utterly convinced by Huang Pingliang’s assertion.
She had completely believed there was something wrong with Qin Feng’s bank card.
The swiped amount of over eighteen million was fake.
Now, the waitress was actually telling her it was real?
Looking at it this way, this stinking loser must be a wealthy guy!
Liu Jiameng was the lobby manager, and she got a commission for every purchase made in the lobby.
With Qin Feng spending over eighteen million in one go, her commission wasn’t small at all—it could be tens of thousands of yuan.
So she immediately put on a huge smile and said to Qin Feng, "Esteemed guest, you ordered over eighteen million yuan worth of dishes, which is too much to eat at once. How about this, I can get you a supreme membership and deposit this money in our restaurant. Every time you come, we’ll just charge you for what you consume. It would be wasteful to serve it all and have you not finish it."
Liu Jiameng made this suggestion, which was actually to help Huang Pingliang out of the awkward situation.
After all, both Qin Feng and Huang Pingliang were VIPs.
Liu Jiameng wanted to please both sides and offend neither.
"Who says I can’t finish it? Even if I can’t, serve it up anyway. Worst comes to worst, I’ll call people to come eat," Qin Feng retorted.
Qin Feng looked at Huang Pingliang with a smile and said, "Mr. Huang, now it’s your turn to perform."
"My performance? What performance? You’re the idiot spending over eighteen million on dishes for no reason, what does that have to do with me?"
Huang Pingliang was chickening out.
When it came to spending money, he was quite restrained.
He certainly wouldn’t spend eighteen million on a whim.
"From what Mr. Huang said, are you backing down? Admitting defeat? Since you’ve lost, you gotta accept the bet. Go sit by the trashcan! Manager Liu, set up a little table for Mr. Huang, let him eat over by the trashcan," Qin Feng suggested.
"I don’t want to eat here today, and I’ll never come to Greenland Restaurant again. Keep boasting about being the fanciest Western restaurant in Zhonghai, yet any Tom, Dick or Harry can come in. It’s just devaluing the place!"
Huang Pingliang left as if he were escaping.
"Mr. Huang, I can arrange the best private room for you," Liu Jiameng said, trying to chase after Huang Pingliang, but failed to catch up with him.
Having offended an old customer, Liu Jiameng couldn’t afford to offend Qin Feng, this new rich guest.
She returned to Qin Feng’s side, her face wearing a professional smile, and said, "Esteemed guest, you’ve ordered all the dishes in our restaurant at least once. This table of yours, it can’t hold that much! How about you apply for a membership card instead? We’ll record your consumption as much as you spend. For a VIP like you who recharges over eighteen million at once, you can enjoy our restaurant’s highest discount. You’ll get a 20 percent discount every time you dine."
"When does the restaurant’s dining rush end?" Qin Feng asked.
"Our place is an upscale Western restaurant and generally operates until ten at night. After ten, there aren’t many customers," the waitress replied.
"Today you’ll have to work overtime. Serve at ten, I’ll call my colleagues over for a meal," Qin Feng decided.
Qin Feng made a call to Ran Jie, asking her to bring over all the Shencao Ji employees for a team building at Greenland Restaurant at ten tonight.
Shencao Ji had been working overtime every day recently.
Qin Feng wanted to take this opportunity to reward everyone.
"Certainly, esteemed guest,"
Liu Jiameng backed away.
Soon, the waiters began to serve the dishes.
Qin Feng had them serve according to what Yu Keqing had previously ordered.
Although the farce was over, Yu Keqing couldn’t help but give Qin Feng a resentful glance.
"You really are burning money. Spending over eighteen million to treat employees in this godforsaken place. If you’ve got so much money you can’t spend it all, give some to me!"
