Chapter 323: Someone was making trouble
When it came to the second day of the food festival,the situation was continuously hot and every booth was crowded with people which was even more lively than the first day.On the third day, even the people from the surrounding towns came here.
Still in the elegant rooms of the Heavenly Residence which were became another stronghold of the business association. The boss of each shop came here to talk lively and jovially,and they also could learn the update of their booth and to take care any problem in time.
“If it had been known that the situation of the food festival will be so good,we should hold it for ten more days or half month.”someone said regretfully.
Lu Xiaotian shook his head and said: “After a long time,there will be no freshness.So three days are enough for people with strong interest to expect the next food festival.”
Duan Qilin nodded his head and said:”This is truth that everything going beyond the limit is as bad as falling short.”
“Be contented,this time, everyone had made a lot of money.These had already make some people envy and hate us.”Lin Changchun said leisurely with a tone did not conceal sarcasm.
Everyone understood and laughed.
A rapid knock on the door rang and a young?salesclerk ran?into the room and said:”shopkeeper Lin,someone is making trouble outside”
Lin became strict and asked what happened
“Someone saying that he had stomachache after eating our food .” The salesclerk answered.
During that time,another salesclerk got in and said:”Shopkeeper Du,someone is making trouble outside the...and saying that they found hair in our soup.”
One after another,several other guy came and reported the same thing. Even the pastry of Ye Jiayao’s pastry house also got the same problem.
“Everyone needed to take care about these quickly,otherwise,it would be bad if it?get large.” Duan Qilin said urgently.
“Wait everyone.”Ye Jiayao cried out and everyone looked at her.
Ye Jiayao’s eyes stood firm and swept over the face of the shopkeeper who had the problem and asked: “Do you really think there is something wrong with your product? ”
” Impossible. All the ingredients are fresh and clean. This is the first food festival. We can’t fuck up our own signboard.”Lin Changchun said seriously.
” Yes, I’m sure there won’t be any problems. The cooks, including those who worked, all wore hats according to the request of shopkeeper Ye. How could hair fall in?” shopkeeper Du also said doubtfully.
Lu Xiaotian took a breath and said:”It can be accident, I think someone is breaking down our fame on purpose.”
” That’s right, but the problem has come out, and I can’t provide any evidence now. Therefore, when I go to deal with the problem later, I must make a reasonable effort to seize several booths and raise the suspicion that the troublemakers were instigated by others and definitely can’t admit their mistakes. Shopkeeper Lu, please tell the government guy. If the troublemakers are too arrogant, catch them first and let’s deal with them later.” Ye Jiayao said coldly .
Lu Xiaotian nodded and said:”You guys act according to your circumstances. I go to find someone for help.”
Everyone went downstairs one after another. To deal with the the problem and told their men to be careful with their booth which did not go wrong yet.
Ye Jiayao called Deng Haichuan and Little Lu went to the pastry booth together.?The booth of the pastry room was just opposite to the water table and was the most lively location. At this time, the three floors inside and outside were crowded with people. Across the crowd, Ye Jiayao heard a woman swearing in the street.
“What a junk it is, purely cheat people with an expensive price and and unclean. My kids started to have suffer from diarrhoea after eating it. If you don’t give me a statement, I’ll smash your shop today... ”
Ye Jiayao sneered,” the means is really a simple one, it was have diarrhoea after eating their pastry again, there was no any other pattern? ”
” Move out the way, the shopkeeper Ye is coming.” Deng Haichuan shouted loudly, separating the crowd Little Lu from the?left and right and guarding Ye Jiayao into the pastry booth. Ye Jiayao went in and saw that it was a woman in her early 30s, dressed in decent clothes, but her skin was rough and dark, which did not match her silks and satins.?A little boy who was six or seven years old was crouching beside her , groaning in pain while covering her belly.
“You’re the shopkeeper? Well, you’re here at last. You’d better give me an explanation.” When the woman saw Ye Jiayao, she put her hand on her waist and pointed to Ye Jiayao, and she became more and more arrogant and said.
Jiang Yue came forward and whispered in Ye Jiayao’s ear: ” She bought some chestnut cakes here.”
Ye Jiayao nodded slightly and asked: ” How many chestnut cakes have been sold today? ”
” There are twelve drawers.”Jiang answered .
Ye Jiayao calculated that one drawer was twenty-four, and twelve drawers were nearly three hundred. Then she got an mind and signaled Little Lu to come, whispered a few words to Little Lu, and Little Lu squeezed out the crowd and left.
With a smile, Ye said to the woman, “Haven’t you eaten any other thing ?”
“I came here and bought the cake because of everyone said that the pastry of the Heavenly Residence is good, but I was cheated.”The woman said angrily.
And then she raised the paper box of pastry in her hands and said to these onlookers beside:”Everyone have a look and judge between right and wrong.This is the chestnut cake that I bought from here, my child only ate this and have suffer from diarrhoea after eating this.Is there nothing wrong with her chestnut cake or not?”
People were talking about it. Some of them also ate chestnut cakes, but they couldn’t help covering their stomachs for fear that they might have a stomachache later.
Ye Jiayao said slowly: ” Today is the third day of the Food Festival, and thousands of cakes have been sold in our booth, even today we have already sold twelve drawers. But?you are the first to say there is something wrong with our cake. The probability of that things is really lower than that of?winning the golden pig.”
” Are you trying to deny the truth ? The evidence is still in my hands. Do you dare to taste this chestnut cake in front of everyone? “The woman said fiercely.
“Why not? give it to me.”Ye Jiayao laughed and said .
The woman was careful. She opened the box and gave Ye Jiayao a?pieces chestnut cake only. The rest cake she wanted to keep it as evidence she said.
Ye Jiayao took a closer look at the cake and pulled out a sneer at the corner of her mouth and said: ” This chestnut cake is an imitation of ninety percent similarity. It’s more than enough to fool people who don’t know, but it’s still a little short of trying to deceive me.”
The woman’s face changed, “What do you mean? I came here with empty-handed and this chestnut cake was sold from your booth. You are the only one chestnut cakes seller all through the food festival.”
Ye Jiayao showed the chestnut cake and to the crowd of onlookers,and said ” Guys, those who bought the cakes from our Heavenly Residence pastry house all know that all the cakes in our booth have marks.I have to say that this chestnut cake has a high imitation level, the color is soft and the marks are also there. But the marks in Heavenly Residence – pastry house are specially made by carpenters, and?ordinary people?can not forge them.”
As she said this, Ye Jiayao turned her head to Jiang Yue and asked: ” Go and fetch a ready-made chestnut cake.”
Jiang Yue said yes and immediately opened the steam drawer and gave Ye Jiayao a chestnut cake on a dish.?Ye Jiayao put two pieces of chestnut cakes together.
” Look, everyone, the mark on the chestnut cake just taken out is clear and beautifully patterned, while the mark on the imitation chestnut cake is much shallower, and the pattern is just similar and rough.” Ye Jiayao showed it to the onlookers with a dish and said.
Everyone only took a rough look at it but no had?clear distinction?after they were suggested by Ye Jiayao’s word. They all felt that the woman’s cake was really rough.
The woman’s face turned blue and white, and her eyes gleamed, just as if she had lost her rightness.
Ye Jiayao also sank her face and stared at the woman coldly: ” Do you want to falsely claim for money or?someone ordering you to come? I think you have been instructed by someone, otherwise, you won’t specially look for someone to carve the mold. ”
” You ... you’re slandering at me.” the woman stammered.
Ye Jiayao sneered and said: ” It is not a slander,everyone’s eyes are bright and clear..
” That is, I also ate chestnut cake. Why is it all right? ” shouted someone in the crowd.
” I also ate it.”
” Me too.”
At that time, many people in the crowd responded for Ye Jiayao.
Ye Jiayao nodded with a smile at everyone and said, ” Thanks for everyone’s trust, we Heavenly Residence, always thinking that the service of guests is the first objective. Whether it’s in a restaurant in Heavenly Residence or in a pastry shop, there has never been a food hygiene problem. Of course, this is not something to show off. This is the conscience of our people in the catering industry, and it’s our duty.”
Deng Haichuan took the lead in clapping smartly: ” That’s good.”
Suddenly there was applause, and the woman saw that the situation was not good and was ready to slip away.
Ye Jiayao winked at Deng Haichuan and Deng Haichuan grabbed her.
” What? Want to escape? Don’t you care about your children? ” Deng Haichuan quipped.
Ye Jiayao sniffed: ” Because this is not her child at all.”
Jiang Yue was startled and wondered how did the second lady known that?
The onlookers were also confused.
Ye Jiayao said: ” The child groans in such pain, but the woman has never looked at the child. She has no half-hearted love in her eyes, and now she is leaving the child to run away.If the child is her own, can she not love him? Can she leave the children behind? If I were her I must have taken the child to the doctor in a hurry.”
Ye Jiayao said. crouching down and taking out a handkerchief to wipe the sweat from the child’s forehead for the child, softly said, ” Is it painful??just hang in there, I have already sent someone to call a doctor for you.”
The child cried bitterly and cried, ” She’s not my mother. She asked me to eat chestnut cakes. When everything setted, give me fifty coppers.”
Ye Jiayao turned her head and glared at the frightened lady with genuine anger.
” Deng Haichuan, send her to the official,” she shouted.
Damn it, it was too inhumanity. If she found out who was behind it, she would make sure the bastard pay for this.
The truth came to light and people were outraged, especially some of them were mother who were more angry and denounced women in succession.
Ye Jiayao took the opportunity to say: ” This food festival is our first food festival in Jinling City’s history. No, it is our first food festival in Huai Song’s history. Our 39 restaurants have shown their sincerity to organize this food festival. We are lucky to have won everyone’s recognition and support. We are glad to be exhausted, but there are some people whose eyes are shallow and don’t want others to be good. She is not alone in making trouble today. Several booths have encountered such problems. Hope everyone can polish their eyes and don’t let the despicable means of the bad guy blind your eyes.”
