From Cannon Fodder to '80s Tycoon with My Space Supermarket Chapter 116: Hitting a Brick Wall

So, they hurriedly rushed to apologize to the person, and after a long ti of thinking, they finally realized what was going on.

During that season, there were absolutely no flies, so this fly must have been intentionally placed by the custor, aiming to sabotage the business of their shop.

Upon learning of this result, the two of them were very angry, and after arguing with the custor for a long ti, the custor realized he was at fault and ran away in embarrassnt.

This kind of thing has happened more than once or twice.

There have even been many instances.

The waiter still rembers an occasion when a custor found a long hair in their food at the shop.

At that ti, they were busy in the kitchen, so they didn’t clearly hear what was being said at the front, only making out that a custor found hair in their bowl.

Both of their minds went blank for an instant, but they quickly ca to their senses.

Logically, the chance of finding hair in the wonton was very low, because when they made the wontons, they wrapped them tightly, ensuring that the hair wouldn’t be visible at all.

Moreover, the shop owner was bald, a middle-aged man whose head was completely hairless.

The waiter wasn’t bald, but he was a man with short hair, barely any length, so they were puzzled and went to inspect the custor’s bowl.

As they both had tense expressions, the custor indeed pulled out a long hair from the bowl.

Clearly, it was a woman’s hair, at least forty or fifty centiters long. How was this possible? Without ntioning that you couldn’t find a woman anywhere in the shop.

The owner’s wife was ho with the child, almost never ca to the shop, so the fact that the custor managed to find such a long hair in the bowl was likely intentional, causing trouble to affect their shop’s business.

How could they possibly fall into that trap?

Moreover, they didn’t even understand the custor’s motives?

Anyway, there were only two possibilities: one was a business rival causing trouble, jealous of their good business and trying to tarnish their shop’s reputation for unsanitary conditions.

The second was soone trying to dine without paying, wanting to eat wonton for free.

Either way, both scenarios were extrely vile.

It needed to be strictly prevented.

There was no way to settle it quietly; if they swallowed this issue down, putting bla on the shop, how would they conduct business in the future?

If the first one was true, then wouldn’t it an the rival thought they were easy to bully?

Whenever their business was doing well, they’d co over to use the sa tricks, repeatedly setting them up, which would greatly affect their shop’s business.

If there were no custors, wouldn’t their shop go out of business?

Therefore, they absolutely couldn’t condone this kind of thing; they had to deal with them severely so they wouldn’t dare try again.

If it was the second case, they were only doing small businesses to feed their families; they relied on it. If people often ca to eat without paying, wouldn’t they lose money?

So, they argued fiercely with that custor and sent him to the police station; since then, such incidents have indeed decreased considerably, at least letting the surrounding businesses know that the shop’s owner was tough and not easily bullied.

Hence today, after Lin Ye ca to the shop, initially, when he asked to use the faucet to wash his lunchbox, there was nothing suspicious.

But when he offered money later, the shop owner imdiately realized and suspected his motive wasn’t so simple.

Thus, he instructed the waiter to hurry and expel him, preventing him from affecting their business; potentially a recipe thief or troublemaker.

The waiter’s expression instantly turned serious, shedding the earlier casual deanor.

After all, he was just working; if the shop suffered, wouldn’t he lose his job too?

In these tis, sustaining one’s family isn’t easy; if it weren’t for earning money, who’d bother to do labor work in this small restaurant?

Thus, naturally, he took Lin Ye for a malicious competitor.

After leaving the kitchen, he headed straight to the front, gazing at Lin Ye with none of his earlier friendliness.

The waiter said fiercely:

"I asked the boss, and he said he doesn’t need your one dollar for water, who knows whether you’re a good person or not?"

"We’re running a small business, if you have any ideas towards our shop, then sorry, you picked the wrong target."

"The recipe at our shop is impossible to leak, if you intend to ss with our kitchen, then don’t bla us for being rude!"

After speaking, the waiter directly started shoving Lin Ye out of their shop.

It was a completely hostile situation.

Lin Ye, upon hearing the waiter’s words, felt utterly bewildered, not knowing what had transpired in the kitchen.

Yet clearly, there was a misunderstanding.

The waiter hadn’t had this expression before he went in; how did it all change upon coming out?

It was quite baffling for him, but Lin Ye wasn’t stupid, and hearing the waiter’s words, he quickly inferred that perhaps they mistook him for a recipe thief.

It was a severe misunderstanding; he wasn’t in the restaurant business, rely running his stall in the market. What would he gain from stealing their wonton recipe, to make wontons at ho?

There’s absolutely no need for that!

Lin Ye found it hard to explain himself; he wanted to argue for his innocence, but alas, the waiter forcefully pushed him out of the shop.

Lin Ye paused for a mont, thinking he shouldn’t continue arguing, as it might waste more ti.

After all, Jiang Xin was still watching the stall at the market; if he delayed too much, who knows when he’d get back.

After knocking against several doors, Lin Ye simply took a detour, avoiding other shops, going straight to a small river to clean his lunchbox, then returned to the market.
