Chapter 156 VIP Card
Chapter 156 VIP Card
Yang Chenchuan smiled faintly, not caring much, while Lin Yuxi thought of the flash of inspiration just now, and said calmly: "Shopkeeper, go tell everyone that Zui Furong is now launching a VIP card, 200 taels of silver per quarter. Within three months, as long as the guests use the VIP card to consume in the store, all dishes will be discounted by 20%, and all kinds of cakes can be customized."
The shopkeeper was stunned, a little hesitant, and thought for a long time before saying: "Madam, this seems a little inappropriate. Wouldn't it be like this to divide the guests into three or six levels? What if we offend the guests..."
"Boss, let me ask you, when you see guests dressed in rich clothes, are you more attentive and considerate in your service?"
The shopkeeper immediately replied, "Of course!"
"In fact, even if we don't launch this kind of VIP card, the shopkeeper and the waiter will still divide people into three or six levels. However, this kind of VIP card can not only attract the most distinguished guests to Zui Furong, but most importantly, it can also become a fashion for the nobles to compete with each other!"
In this feudal society, people are divided into different levels. Besides, people here have already adapted to this level. Since this kind of VIP card is acceptable in modern times, it should be no problem in ancient times!
When the shopkeeper heard what Lin Yuxi said, his eyes lit up. The young lady was right.
Rich people love face. Most of them don’t care how much money they spend or where they spend it. The most important thing is the competitive mentality. What they pursue is to stand at the top and step on others.
But he couldn't help feeling a little worried. This kind of business model was unprecedented and unparalleled, so it was risky. However, as there were seats reserved in front, the shopkeeper felt relieved.
Yang Chenchuan raised his eyebrows after hearing this. This was the first time he heard of this kind of business model. The VIP card method could attract funds in a short period of time and stabilize high-quality customers. It was indeed good.
The shopkeeper left and the waiter soon brought the food up, filling the table. Lin Yuxi hurriedly asked Lu Yun and Mo Yan to sit down. Lu Yun looked at Ye Ziyan timidly, and seeing that he had no objection, she sat down as he asked.
In fact, Yang Chenchuan didn't care too much about this. Mo Yan was his subordinate, not a slave. In the past, when he was away from home, Mo Yan and Chi Jian helped him a lot. They had eaten at the same table and slept in the same bed many times. In his heart, he regarded the two of them as brothers, at least much closer than the brothers in the mansion.
When they were halfway through the meal, there was a loud commotion outside, and Yang Chenchuan frowned.
"I told you to get out, but you didn't hear me? Do you know what it means to get out? Someone, come and teach this slave what it means to get out." As soon as the arrogant and unreasonable voice fell, there was a commotion and screams, and people kept asking for mercy for the young master.
Lin Yuxi frowned as well. If she heard correctly, the voice belonged to Yang Chenxi.
She put on her veil and propped open a corner of the window. As expected, she saw that the door of the box opposite was wide open. Yang Chenxi proudly stepped on the back of a waiter and kicked him hard. The waiter rolled on the ground for a few rounds, causing the people in the box to laugh.
“Remember this, next time I tell you to get lost, don’t walk on your feet again. If you do that again, I’ll have your legs broken, hahahaha…” Yang Chenxi shook the paper fan in his hand, feeling very proud of the flattery from everyone.
Lin Yuxi gritted her teeth as she watched, he was really too abominable. She didn't know how the waiter had offended him, but even a beggar on the street had parents and was loved by his family. It was nothing for him to humiliate an innocent person like this.
Yang Chenxi relied on his status to always bully the people. Everyone in Mingde City knew him. Everyone wanted to escape when they saw him. If they were caught by him accidentally, they would be unable to get rid of him without losing a lot of skin.
Many rooms opened their windows to watch the excitement, but no one came to help. Lin Yuxi could not help but sigh that human nature is so cold.
The shopkeeper on the other end heard the voice and came over. He was stunned for a moment when he saw the scene. After all, he was a man who had seen the world, so he bowed and apologized, and helped the waiter up from the ground.
Lin Yuxi was unhappy after hearing this, this waiter was still theirs, and she was very protective of her people. If the waiter made a mistake, the shopkeeper would naturally punish him. It was obvious that Yang Chenxi was maliciously making things difficult for her.
She pouted and glared at Yang Chenchuan, saying, "Husband, are you just going to let it go like this?"
Yang Chenxi was a guest, they couldn't chase him away, but that didn't mean she couldn't discipline him. Yang Chenchuan raised his eyebrows, then smiled. As long as Lin Yuxi wagged her tail, he would know what she was thinking.
He scratched her nose and said with a smile: "You are my wife. Whatever you want to do, I will fully support you."
Lin Yuxi got his consent, raised her nose proudly, and deliberately raised her voice: "Look, my husband, isn't that my eldest brother?"
The two boxes were not far from each other. Yang Chenxi happened to hear it. When he looked up, he saw two familiar figures in the small window. He greeted his companions and got up and went to Yang Chenchuan's box.
As soon as he entered the room, he glanced at their table with a look of disdain, "Second brother is so elegant. He brought his sister-in-law to eat hot pot, but why did you only order so many dishes? Let me tell you, the dishes at Zui Furong are all graded. The higher the price, the better the taste. The total amount of food you ordered is less than ten taels, which is not as much as one dish at my table."
Lin Yuxi almost laughed out loud. Even a fool would know that the higher the price, the better the taste. Yet he specifically mentioned it and deliberately belittled the other party.
She felt cold in her heart, Yang Chenchuan was his own brother, they shared weal and woe, how could it benefit him if he belittled Yang Chenchuan, it wouldn't bring him honor either, she really didn't know what he was thinking.
"I heard that the dishes at Zui Furong are the best in the city, and there is absolutely no other place that can compare to them, so I begged my husband to take me out to see them. It's also my fault that I don't usually pay much attention to food, and I really didn't know that it was so finely divided. Fortunately, I met you, brother, otherwise it would be a waste if I didn't taste the delicious food after coming out with great difficulty. But my husband is not like you, brother. He is idle at home with no income, and he has a house full of people to support, so he didn't bring much money. Why don't you recommend some delicious and affordable dishes to us, brother?"
Lin Yuxi had already taken off her veil and was looking at Yang Chenxi with her round eyes. Her pretty face made Yang Chenxi stunned and his heart was moved. If this beauty belonged to him... thinking this, he glanced at Yang Chenchuan who was silent.
He looked down on Yang Chenchuan from the bottom of his heart. Not only did he look down on Yang Chenchuan, but he also looked down on Yang Chenyu, Yang Chenxing, and the second wife's son Yang Chenyu. He thought that he was the eldest son and grandson, and his status was higher than any of them.
He also had a father who was the prefect of a prefecture, so everyone in Mingde City was trying to curry favor with him, which made him even more proud.
Hearing Lin Yuxi say that Yang Chenchuan had no money, Yang Chenxi even more regarded him as a loser who lived off others, and immediately patted his chest and said:
"Sister-in-law, what are you talking about? It's rare for you to come out, so you must eat the best. Don't worry, I'll treat you all to this meal, just order whatever you want, don't be polite."
