I've been possessed by a culinary genius, and I've turned Shaxian snacks into a rip-off!

Another half hour passed.

The employees from Lingyun Network Technology Company had finally finished eating.

The table was piled high with empty bowls and plates, the clay pot was scraped clean, and not a single drop of soup remained in the stew pot; it had all been swept clean.

Everyone leaned back in their chairs, patting their round bellies, their faces beaming with immense satisfaction and happiness.

"Hiccup~~ I've never eaten such a satisfying meal in my life."

"I feel incredibly energetic right now, I could work all night without breaking a sweat."

"Don't talk nonsense. If that sycophant Liu Xin hears you say that, he might really make you stay up all night."

"In the past, I would never have imagined that Shaxian snacks could be made so delicious."

"I'll come again next time."

"I'll come too. I'll come as soon as I get paid. I'll eat even if I have to pay for it myself."

"Yes, it's so delicious!"

"......"

While everyone was still enjoying the afterglow of the meal, someone finally thought about the food prices.

"By the way, how much did this meal cost? I didn't see any prices listed on the menu."

"Xiao Ran, you found this place, do you know how much it cost?"

Wen Ran shook her head upon hearing this: "I don't know either, anyway, the supervisor said we can eat whatever we want."

When she said this, her tone was so sincere and innocent, as if she really was a clueless intern.

However, when she saw the labels that Li Zhibai had just torn off on the wall, and the prices that had reappeared, she immediately felt guilty.

She quickly estimated her expenses for the evening in her mind.

There were 26 people, and several male colleagues with big appetites ordered extra meals several times. In total, they probably finished more than 40 servings of noodles, more than 30 servings of chicken leg rice, more than 40 pots of stew, and other dishes...

It seems like it's exceeded the limit by a factor of 100.

Just then, Li Zhibai walked over with a big smile on his face, holding the bill.

"Distinguished guests, have you all finished your meal?"

Upon hearing this, everyone praised him.

"I've eaten my fill, I've eaten my fill! Boss, your cooking is absolutely superb."

"This is the most satisfying meal I've ever had."

"..."

"I'm glad you've all eaten well."

Li Zhibai placed the bill directly on the table: "This is tonight's bill. Which esteemed guest would like to settle it?"

"I'll take it. The supervisor's card is with me." Wen Ran stood up, took out her bank card from her pocket, and handed it to Li Zhibai.

"You'd like to swipe your card, please wait a moment."

Li Zhibai took the card, operated it on the POS machine a few times, and then handed the machine to Wen Ran: "Please enter the PIN."

Wen Ran stretched out her finger and entered the password given to her by her supervisor.

The POS machine squeaked as it printed out the receipt.

Li Zhibai tore off the receipt and returned it to Wen Ran along with the bank card: "Please keep the receipt and card safe. This transaction costs 130450 yuan."

When people heard this number, their first instinct was to say something like, "This price is okay, it's great value for money."

After all, the meal was so delicious that I couldn't stop eating it.

But before they could even speak, they realized something was wrong.

"How...how much?" Ah-Qiang asked first.

"130450 yuan, thank you for your patronage." Li Zhibai repeated it again.

Everyone: "......."

"Wait, boss, aren't you from Shaxian? We spent 13 yuan on one meal? Are you kidding me?"

"Yes, it's Shaxian, and a high-end Shaxian at that." Li Zhibai pointed to the menu on the wall: "The prices are all clearly marked."

Everyone quickly turned to look at the menu on the wall, and then they were all dumbfounded.

588, 688, 888...

Just now, when they were enjoying their meal, these prices were covered by sticky notes, but now someone has torn them off, revealing prices that make them tremble.

"5...588 for a bowl of noodles? I ate two bowls, that means I spent almost a thousand just on noodles?"

"I actually drank three big bowls of that stewed food, which cost 888 yuan."

"I ate two servings of chicken leg rice, which cost 688 yuan each."

"........."

silence.

Dead silence.

Then, everyone turned to look at Wen Ran, who was about to ask her boss for an invoice.

"Xiao Ran, tell me the truth, did you already know about this price?"

"Aren't you afraid your supervisor will give you a piece of his mind tomorrow?"

Wen Ran knew she couldn't hide it anymore, so she had no choice but to say, "Am I wrong? Is the food here bad?"

"Manager Liu himself said in the group chat that we can eat whatever we want."

"And you ate it too, and you ate a lot."

Everyone: "..."

Good grief, so they were waiting for them here.

The girl is right. They ate too, and a lot of it. So now we're all in the same boat.

The company dinner cost over 130,000 yuan in one meal.

When the boss and that sycophant Liu Xin find out, the sky will probably fall.

However, on the other hand, the boss and Liu Xin aren't exactly good people either.

He eats and drinks well in fancy restaurants while his employees eat at Shaxian restaurants. Isn't that going too far?

With this thought, everyone's guilt vanished instantly.

Who cares? It's not like they wanted to eat in Shaxian. It was the supervisor who chose Shaxian and told them to eat as much as they wanted.

"Hiccup~~~"

Xiao Zhang let out another long burp, patted his round belly, and exclaimed, "130,000 yuan! I've never eaten such an expensive meal in my life, but it was fucking awesome!"

"Me too."

+1.

"..."

"Um, can I have another serving of steamed dumplings? I've already spent over ten thousand, so another five hundred thousand won't make a difference," Ah Qiang said suddenly, raising his hand.

I'm sure I'll get yelled at when I go back to the company tomorrow, so I might as well eat until I'm stuffed and then throw up.

Upon hearing this, everyone else also raised their hands.

"Right, right, right! Since it's already a done deal, let's eat more and let the storm rage on!"

"Boss, give me another stew pot. What? You can't take it to go? If you can't take it to go, then I'll just drink it here."

"I want to add more, another deluxe chicken leg rice."

"..."

Li Zhibai was stunned to see this group of office workers who were not scared by the bill at all, but instead continued to order food as if they had been injected with chicken blood.

He originally thought that he was already inhuman and ruthless enough as a boss.

I never expected that these guys would truly surpass their teachers; when they get ruthless, they'd even go so far as to betray their own supervisors and bosses.

These aren't just corporate slaves, they're practically a pack of wolves!

But that's fine too; the more they let loose, the higher his sales will be tonight.

Li Zhibai glanced at the system panel; he had already exceeded the required number of newbie tasks assigned by the system.

[Congratulations, host, on completing the beginner's task: Sell 100 dishes within seven days.]

[Task Reward: The system kitchen renovation has been issued. The renovation will begin after closing time tonight and will last for 24 hours. The business will need to be closed for one day during this period. Please avoid the area during this time.]

Li Zhibai was overjoyed, then enthusiastically shouted to the group of employees who were frantically ordering extra food, "Alright everyone, just a moment, it'll be right there!"

Then he plunged into the kitchen and began a new round of battle.

When all of them could no longer eat anything, the final bill came out.

168900 yuan.

The meal cost nearly 17 yuan.

Then Wen Ran took the issued invoice, and the group left satisfied.

This bizarre scene left Yu Shen and his two companions, who were waiting for seats at the door, completely stunned.

No, Li Heizi slaughtered 170,000 of you, and you're still laughing?

Are all working people this rich these days?
