The smile on Warren's face suddenly froze, and the conference room gradually became quiet. Everyone looked at this scene with strange expressions.
Robert's status is somewhat special. He was transferred from the City Lord's Mansion, so he is somewhat different from the other vice presidents.
However, because of his overly upright personality, he has never been liked by President Warren and was directly ignored. His position in the Catering Association is somewhat embarrassing.
"Vice President Robert, although I know that you like to go to various restaurants for on-the-spot inspections, I don't agree with your words. I don't care how this restaurant has so many customers after it has only been open for less than a month, but just now We also saw the unit prices of the dishes in these restaurants. The cheapest dish costs 200 copper coins, and the most expensive dish even costs 800 copper coins. High-end restaurants dare not mark such prices. He is a small restaurant that sets the price for the dishes. Do you think this price is reasonable?" Tonys, who was also fat and sat next to Warren, looked at Robert with amusement.
As Warren's right-hand man and also the vice-president of the association, he looked down upon this unscrupulous vice-president.
"That's right, with such pricing and without enough publicity, how could it be possible to accumulate so many customers in a short period of time." Theodore nodded and said, these vice presidents were all promoted by Warren, and they have followed Wo over the years. Lun is popular for drinking spicy food, and he can get one or two large bonuses from time to time, and his life can be described as happy.
But in the past two years, because of Robert's lack of support, everyone had to restrain themselves a lot, so they all regarded him as a thorn in their side. Now he directly refutes Warren at the meeting, which is of course intolerable.
Although Robert came from the City Lord's Mansion, the Catering Association is not a department with real power. If he was transferred here to be the vice president, he would definitely not be able to speak in the City Lord's Mansion.
"That restaurant was able to attract so many customers in less than a month because of its extremely delicious food. And for such a high price, I still think it is appropriate because I tasted it in that restaurant that day. The most expensive braised chicken with rice and the most controversial tofu pudding, the deliciousness of these two dishes is beyond anything I have tasted before. For such a price, I feel that it is appropriate and even a bit profitable. Feeling." Robert responded with a calm expression.
These days, the ranking of Maimi Restaurant has been rising steadily, especially the braised chicken and rice, which has risen to 21st. Today's votes have not been fully counted, but according to this momentum, entering the top 20 should not be a problem.
Robert expected that Maimi's restaurant's strong entry into the list would cause complaints within the Catering Association, but he did not expect that these guys would rely on their own subjective assumptions to remove Maimi's restaurant from the list without any evidence.
This behavior makes Robert shameless and angry, but he can only endure it now, here, he fights alone.
Maimi's Restaurant is an excellent restaurant. This kind of restaurant should be promoted and respected and become a business card of Aden Plaza, instead of being disqualified from being included in the list because it hinders the interests of some people.
"I still fully recognize and agree with Vice President Robert's behavior of being able to taste it in person, but what you are saying now is very subjective, so it does not convince me. I have always believed in evidence. Before, I believed more in the data and evidence I could see." Warren's already small eyes narrowed to just a slit, he looked at Robert and shook his head: "At present, it seems that there is indeed something wrong with this restaurant. , I don’t know why Vice President Robert insists on supporting him.”
"President Warren, I think this is a restaurant with great potential. It may even become the most famous restaurant in Aden Square in the near future. What I say is based on the delicious food I have seen and tasted. There is no support for anyone.
On the contrary, President Warren, without any factual basis, only relied on some common sense to judge whether a restaurant's ranking was normal and whether there was any behavior of supporting certain restaurants that were suppressed by Maimi's Restaurant. If you insist on taking Maimi's Restaurant off the list, I will truthfully report the matter to the Lord of the City and ask him to seek justice. "Robert suddenly stood up and looked at Warren's tit-for-tat exchange.
The conference room fell into silence again, and Tonys and Theodore also shut their mouths. When the Lord of the City was involved, they couldn't interrupt casually.
"Oh, you don't need to report this to the City Lord. I will report it truthfully. If our Catering Association can't accommodate a big shot like you, then I'd better ask the City Lord to find another place for you." Warren sneered, his expression also extremely cold. .
"I would not have left the Catering Association without the transfer order from the Lord of the City. President Warren, I hope you still remember the promises and guarantees you made when you took over from the previous president." Robert turned directly towards the door. Go.
"This guy..." Warren looked at Robert's back and suddenly remembered that right here, in front of several old tables, an old man with white hair held his hands and spoke to him earnestly. In line with the future vision of the Catering Association, he solemnly handed the bunch of keys into his hands and made him the owner of this place. He said a lot and promised a lot of things that day...
"President, what about now?" Tonys interrupted Warren's thoughts and asked softly.
"Of course we will be listed according to the rules. Tonys, you and I will go to that Maimi's restaurant tomorrow. Everything must be based on evidence, so we will get the evidence." Warren said with a smile, got up and walked out. .
"Okay." Tonys nodded quickly.
After everyone dispersed, a middle-aged man with a bald head and a big belly followed Warren into a nearby room.
"Stanley, go and tell Master Cyril that that restaurant will no longer be on the list every day, and it will never be on the list again from now on." Warren picked up the wine bottle on the table and poured a glass. In the transparent crystal glass, he shook the bright red wine glass, took a sip, and said with a smile.
"Okay, President." Stanley nodded quickly, turned around and left quickly.
"It's just a small restaurant. In Aden Square, if I want you to get rich, you can get rich. If I want you to close, you have to close. For a restaurant, nothing is more important than reputation." Wo. Lun took another sip of red wine, looked at the slightly rippling red wine in the glass, and whispered to himself.
…
In Cyril's Villa.
"Very good. Director Stanley and President Warren are involved in this matter. I believe that under the fair protection of the Catering Association, the food rankings will definitely get better and better. I hope our cooperation will become more and more pleasant. Cheers. ." Cyril picked up the wine glass and gestured to Stanley, with a smile on his face.
"Master Cyril is right, working with you is the most pleasant thing." Stanley quickly picked up the wine glass and said with a smile. This time he also got a lot of benefits from it. The money of a big family is easy to make. Try it. After all, he hopes there will be more restaurants like this in the future.
…
"Should I be in the top twenty on today's list?" Early the next morning, Mag opened his eyes and stood straight on the ground, looking at his hands with a smile on his face.
