Chapter 583 The Resort is Going to Go Bankrupt
Over the next few days, Ye Bai's life became very regular.
I do two things every day: deliver goods and fish.
However, as the weather gets colder, fishing becomes increasingly difficult.
And it also makes your hands freeze.
However, Ye Bai and Shen Lu still thoroughly enjoyed delivering goods to the resort every day.
The reason is simple: there are many delicious foods at the resort.
The Ye family put a lot of effort into building this resort.
Not only does it cover a large area and have beautiful scenery, but the food is also a top priority.
After all, for Chinese people, the desire for food is one of the two major innate traits.
The saying "food is the most important thing for the people" has been around for so many years, and it's definitely not just empty talk.
In the past, when conditions were not good, it was enough to just fill one's stomach. Now that the economy has improved, people naturally have higher requirements for food.
So the resort started to focus on food, setting up many breeding bases with many good things that can't be bought on the market.
Of course, these ingredients are quite expensive. Ordinary people can afford to try them occasionally, but they definitely can't afford to eat them all the time.
But this was not a problem for Ye Bai and Shen Lu at all. The resort now belonged to Qin Wanqing, and the two of them, one big and one small, could eat like royalty here without any psychological pressure.
Especially when he thought about how Qin Bapi was exploiting him all the time, Ye Bai felt more and more determined to get his money's worth, so he simply indulged his appetite and picked out the best food to eat.
Shen Lu didn't understand any of this. She wasn't very bright and was just a little foodie. She would eat whatever her son-in-law said to eat, as long as she didn't eat less than him, she considered it a success.
After several days of this gluttonous eating, the resort's food and beverage manager nearly went crazy.
There's nothing we can do, these two just have an insane appetite.
At first, the catering manager didn't take it seriously. After all, it was someone else's business, so what was wrong with eating something?
As long as he keeps good records and everything is clear, Qin Wanqing won't be able to say anything, since it wasn't him who secretly embezzled the money.
Besides, there are only two of us. Even if we can eat a lot, how much can we eat?
Having worked in the catering industry for so many years, he has seen plenty of food, but he has never seen a restaurant go out of business after just a few meals.
The food and beverage manager's idea was not wrong; he simply underestimated the appetites of the two foodies.
Although it was just lunch, and there were only two people, one of whom looked like a young girl who was not yet an adult.
But these two guys managed to devour the entire day's supply of rare ingredients for the resort in one meal!
Of course, no matter how much Ye Bai and Shen Lu can eat, they can't possibly eat hundreds of kilograms in one meal; that would be beyond human capabilities.
The key issue is that the resort's rare ingredients are produced in extremely low quantities.
This results in a very small amount that can be provided each day. After removing the shell, hair, bones, and thorns, the remaining meat weighs less than ten pounds.
This ingredient is also limited in the resort restaurant; at most, there's only one small plate per table, just so customers can try something new.
To everyone's surprise, they encountered Ye Bai and Shen Lu, two big eaters, who devoured everything in one meal, causing the catering manager to break down on the spot.
He wasn't concerned about how much money Ye Bai and Shen Lu had spent on that meal; after all, it wasn't his money, and at most, the resort would just lose a little profit.
The problem is that many guests come to the resort's restaurants specifically for those rare ingredients.
Because of the limited quantity, these customers often come back for several days in a row if they haven't had enough!
Now that Ye Bai and Shen Lu have eaten all these rare ingredients, what will he use to provide for the guests?
If their own meat were delicious, the catering manager wouldn't mind cutting off ten or eight pounds, but damn it, nobody eats this stuff!
Customers were naturally extremely dissatisfied with the inability to provide those rare ingredients, especially those who had traveled hundreds of miles just to try them.
After several days of this, the catering manager couldn't take it anymore and called Qin Wanqing directly.
This was no longer a complaint; he explicitly stated that if Ye Bai and Shen Lu continued to eat here, he would quit.
He couldn't take being yelled at by customers every day.
Qin Wanqing didn't care much after hearing this. It would just mean fewer customers and less profit for the resort. For her and the Qin family, this amount of money was nothing.
However, the thought that Ye Bai, who was treated like a beast of burden, was eating better than her, the boss, every day immediately made her feel unbalanced.
In the end, feeling utterly exhausted, Queen Qin had no choice but to have Ye Bai call him back and prepare to find him another job.
Ye Bai and Shen Lu had no objections to this; after eating it for several days, they were getting a little tired of even the most delicious food.
The only slight pity is that Shang Sanning has really gone into complete hiding and hasn't been to the resort or Qingfeng Temple at all during this time.
Ye Bai guessed that the other party should be fully alert and should not show up again until Sun Yibiao returned with his helpers.
Since that's the case, there's no point in him continuing to wait passively.
What Ye Bai never expected was that when he was about to say goodbye to his job as a delivery driver, there was still someone who was reluctant to part with him.
The old Taoist priest who tells fortunes and palmistry at the entrance of Qingfeng Temple!
Whether it's because of Ye Bai's martial prowess or Queen Qin's wealth, the old Taoist priest is now adopting a clingy attitude.
"Mr. Ye, please rest assured! Don't let my old appearance fool you, I'm not actually that old. I've just been ravaged by the years. With a little makeup, I'll recover quickly!"
"Don't believe me? Look at my physique, still top-notch, even younger people can't compare! Mr. Ye, I'm not bragging, but I used to be compassionate and didn't want to kill anyone. Otherwise, one punch from me could have destroyed a whole bunch of houses!"
"So please take me in. Someone as accomplished as you must need someone to help you. This little girl looks clumsy and won't be able to serve you well..."
Just as Ye Bai and Shen Lu were about to head back home, the old Taoist priest suddenly rushed out from the side, grabbed them, and started nagging and enthusiastically promoting his products.
If Shen Lu hadn't slammed on the brakes quickly enough, Ye Bai would have suspected that the old Taoist priest might have crawled under the car wheels to stage an accident.
"...Sir, your so-called youthfulness must be compared to centenarians, right? If I'm not mistaken, you must be over seventy, right?"
Ye Bai asked with some suspicion.
"No way, I'm only sixty-nine this year, I'm still young!"
The old Taoist priest shook his head with an air of pride.
Ye Bai was speechless, while Shen Lu was so angry that she gritted her teeth and her little face puffed up.
This old Taoist priest dared to call her clumsy. If it weren't for the fact that he was older than her grandfather, she would have jumped up and punched this disrespectful old man a few times.
"...You're not looking for a job that's been dormant since business is slow in winter, are you?"
Looking at the sparse number of tourists heading up the mountain, Ye Bai suddenly realized something.
