Reckless Through The New World
Chapter 324: Protection fees
Waiting for the roasted whole camel to be served is a long process.
But the process is not boring.
As the most honored guests, Panda and the others were treated by this high-end hotel. Several plates of fresh fruits were served, two pots of good wine were served, and two young people with smart smiles served next to them, and there were several others not far away. Pretty girl is dancing.
Obviously, these expenses are included in the price of "roasted whole camels".
Panda doesn't have much interest in dancing, but he thinks highly of the fruits.
This city of gold deserves to be called by the cold wind as "anything you can buy if you have money". Although it is located in the south, there are even fruits produced in the north, and they are still very fresh, as if they have just been picked. generally.
"Isn't your fruit sent by teleportation magic?" He ate two, and while his mouth was full of fragrance, he couldn't help but ask.
The young man in charge of serving him smiled and said, "Our fruit is from a merchant, and we don't know how they got it. We just need to know that their fruit is fresh, and that's enough. "
Panda thought for a while, then nodded: "You're right, knowing this is enough."
He is here to eat, not to do a task, so of course it is enough to make sure that the fruit is fresh and delicious.
As for where this fresh fruit comes from - a writer once said this: you have eaten a very delicious egg, is it necessary to meet the hen that lays the egg?
Some people may find it necessary, but at least pandas are not included.
Han Feng also smiled and said, "Remove the wine for me and replace it with juice."
The waiter complied immediately, and did not protest at all because the bottle of wine had just been opened, not even a glass.
Panda looked at it and asked, "What do you do with the removed wine?"
"We'll magically reseal it to make sure it stays in drinkable condition until your next visit."
"...What if I never come again?"
"Then wait until our store is closed."
Panda raised his eyebrows and nodded: "Your shop has a good level!"
The waiter smiled: "Thank you for the compliment!"
Fruit, juice, song and dance.
Panda was quite satisfied with the appetizer before the main course.
But he also noticed that not everyone of the diners in the restaurant looked at him in a friendly or envious way. Just swiping from the corner of his eye, he saw several pairs of eyes showing jealousy and greed.
This made him frown slightly in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face.
Outside the restaurant, a burly man said to a diner who had just come out: "Are you sure? The guy who runs the grocery store is really inside?"
"That's right! This guy didn't know where to find a fat sheep, but he ordered a roasted whole camel. Now he is eating fruit and talking jokes, waiting to be served."
The burly man frowned, a gloomy expression on his face.
"Roast a whole camel? Someone who can afford that is not easy to provoke! What is the origin of that person?"
"I don't know, we only know that he just came to the local area today. After he came, he walked around the street twice before he arrived at the grocery store. We don't know what he said to the store owner. The two laughed, and then they Come to eat."
The burly man touched his short beard like a steel needle and looked a little uneasy.
What a gangster needs most is eyesight. As a character who can become the leader of a gang, he naturally does not lack eyesight. According to the information from his subordinates, this rich man who can afford roasted whole camels is afraid that he has a good relationship with the grocery store owner who is so poor that he can't even pay the protection fee. If he wants to find that grocery store owner" Walter's trouble, I'm afraid it will bring more trouble to myself and the gang.
He thought about it for a long time, until the smell of roasting whole camels came from the restaurant, and then he made up his mind.
"No matter what his origins are, the protection fee can't be ignored! The most important thing for us in the world is face. If we can't keep our face, the gang will not be able to survive!"
"The boss means... let's go in now?" a subordinate asked.
Before the burly man could answer, another thin and dull subordinate smiled happily: "Yes! Go in now! That rich guy can afford a roasted whole camel, and he definitely doesn't mind paying the protection fee for the poor ghost Walter!"
He was about to walk to the hotel, but was dragged by his boss: "What do you want to do?"
"Go and collect protection fees."
"Bah! You go to Iron Wolf's shop and charge protection fees from the customer who just ordered a roasted whole camel? Believe it or not, tonight, you will become the dessert of the desert wolf outside the city!"
Only then did the subordinates react, and they suddenly sweated coldly, and stammered and asked, "Then... boss, you...you said, what should...what to do?"
"What else can I do? Go to the door of his grocery store and wait!" said the burly man with a sullen face. "They have enough to eat and drink, and they always have to go home to rest. If we talk again then, it will not damage the iron. The face of the wolf."
With a wave of his hand, a group of people followed behind and walked away.
In a room on the third floor of the hotel, an old man leaned against the window, watching this scene from a distance, his face sinking like water, and he said nothing.
His beard and hair are already white, but he still looks majestic, and the most interesting thing is his left hand. His left arm was broken about halfway below the elbow joint, and there was no palm, just a gleaming iron hook.
Watching the group of people leave, he didn't say anything, just put a special cover on his left hand again, which looked like it was a normal hand and wasn't hurt at all.
Panda couldn't help but sighed as he watched the huge roasted whole camel packed in a huge silver plate and carried by six strong men.
"Hanfeng, I heard someone outside say that you owe the protection fee. How much do you owe?"
Han Feng was stunned for a moment, but he didn't expect him to say this, and then his eyes narrowed.
A cold light flickered in his eyes.
"My shop has only been open for less than a month, so it's not the time to pay the protection fee," he said.
But Panda was not fooled by him: "Don't pretend that I don't know the rules of the rivers and lakes, and I pay when I open a store. The protection fee has always been paid in advance, not after the fact. Don't tell me that the city of gold has special rules, and there is still a protection fee. Probation."
Han Feng was amused by his words and said, "Don't worry, I'm not a fool. I'm just a fool to fight against them! I'm just a small businessman who runs a grocery store and makes money. How can I do that kind of thing? What's the matter?"
"Get rich with peace? It doesn't seem like that's what you wrote on the counter."
"That's just pretending, who would take it seriously! It's like there are notices in many stores that 'this store refuses to bargain, but if you become the proprietress, the whole store is yours', don't you think Are those shopkeepers all young men seeking marriage?"
"Isn't it?" Panda asked in surprise.
Han Feng couldn't help coughing twice: "You are the real person! It's just a joke!"
"But... if there is a real girl to apply for the boss lady, will he refuse?" Panda looked at the cold wind, "For example, now a beautiful girl comes to your store to apply for the boss lady, will you refuse?"
Cold wind smiled: "Of course, what I need is money, not women."
Panda looked at him with pity: "That's why you have neither money nor women."
"Hey! The boat of friendship is about to capsize!"
"The boat has been overturned since you ordered roasted whole camels."
"Damn it! I have to eat a little more in this way, otherwise it would be a loss!"
"Let's eat, eat as much as you want. After eating, let's go back and settle the protection fee." Panda said, "Maybe we can still get some experience points."
