“There are a lot of people in the queue. Have you queued up?” Zhang Zhe asked.

“I have, but there are still a hundred people in front of me.”

Xia Wanxing said a little depressed:

“They just did an online promotion recently, and there are too many people coming. Senior, why don’t we go to another restaurant…”

She came before six o’clock, but there were already more than two hundred people in the queue.

Now they have been waiting for more than an hour, but there are still hundreds of tables in front of them. It will probably be at least after half past eight when it’s their turn.

“Don’t you want to eat the hot pot in this restaurant?”

Zhang Zhe replied:

“Wait for me for a while, I’ll go to the front to take a look.”

The most popular thing about the Internet celebrity restaurants in Shanghai is people. There are many hot pot restaurants as popular as this one.

Even in some restaurants, you may not be able to get a queue even if you queue up for a day.

If it were in the past, Zhang Zhe would definitely choose to eat at other restaurants, because he didn’t want to invest too much time just to have a meal, and the same goes for eating hot pot at other restaurants.

But now that he has obtained the system, Zhang Zhe’s mentality has gradually begun to change.

In this world, as long as you have money, you can get a lot of conveniences, and you don’t have to queue up yourself.

You can even directly buy other people’s time.

When Zhang Zhe was about to go to the front to ask and buy a number in front of him, a man in his thirties suddenly came over and asked:

“Handsome guy and beautiful girl, are you here to eat hot pot? I have a number in front of me. Do you want it?”

Wow, there are scalpers for eating?

I don’t know if this restaurant is really popular and attracts these scalpers, or if the hot pot restaurant finds people to play double acts.

However, Zhang Zhe didn’t care about the reason and asked directly:

“How much? How long do we have to wait?”

“One hundred and fifty, there are more than 20 people in front, it will be your turn in about half an hour!”

The scalper immediately replied:

“If you are in a hurry, there is still a seat. There are only 10 tables in front, but it is more expensive at 300 yuan.”

Before Zhang Zhe could reply, Xia Wanxing refused:

“Sorry, we don’t want it, you can ask others!”

After that, she whispered in Zhang Zhe’s ear:

“Senior, let’s go to another restaurant, three hundred yuan is enough for the two of us to have a meal at Haidilao.”

Zhang Zhe smiled and shook his head at the scalper.

Three hundred yuan is not expensive, but since you still need to wait, it is better to use money to open the way.

“Follow me.”

Zhang Zhe took Xia Wanxing’s hand and walked to the front of the line.

Although the two had known each other for a long time and had eaten many meals together, they had never had physical contact because Zhang Zhe had deliberately kept his distance before.

Now that Zhang Zhe suddenly held her hand, Xia Wanxing was stunned, her heartbeat instantly accelerated, and she followed him foolishly.

Arriving at the service desk at the door, Zhang Zhe asked:

“Hello, may I ask what number you are in line now?”

The staff looked at the computer and replied:

“No. 479 just entered. There are more than 230 tables in line now. If you are in a hurry, you can make an appointment for tomorrow.”

“Okay, thank you.”

Zhang Zhe responded, and then shouted to the people in line behind him:

“Is No. 480 here?”

As soon as he finished speaking, a young man in his twenties with sparse hair raised his hand and replied:

“Yes, I am No. 480. Is it my turn?”

Finding the target, Zhang Zhe did not beat around the bush and asked the young man directly:

“Brother, how about selling me your number for one thousand yuan?”

Hearing Zhang Zhe’s words, the young man was stunned.

One thousand yuan, just to buy his own position?

As a programmer, his salary is not low, and he can get an average of 10,000 to 20,000 yuan per month.

But the price is long-term overtime and staying up late, and he started to lose a lot of hair in his twenties.

Now, just a number in the queue can easily earn a thousand yuan.

He was really tempted.

But thinking that he had neglected his girlfriend because of overtime some time ago, and finally coaxed her to agree to accompany her to eat this hot pot, the young man had to bear the pain and said:

“Sorry, I…”

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Zhang Zhe:

“Two thousand!”

“Brother, it’s not about money…”

“Three thousand!”

Zhang Zhe increased the price again, not giving the other party a chance to refuse.

At this time, the young man looked at his girlfriend next to him, wanting to ask for her opinion.

Before they started to discuss, the two girls behind them suddenly said:

“Handsome guy, if he doesn’t sell it, we will sell it. We are No. 481, just one place later than him. You just give two thousand…”

“Who said we don’t sell it?!”

Hearing this, the girlfriend of No. 480 immediately couldn’t sit still, and quickly said to her boyfriend:

“Why are you still standing there? Hurry up and give your number to this handsome guy!”

“Ah? Didn’t you say that we must eat hot pot at this restaurant today…”

“Can’t I just not eat?”

The girl took the number paper from him and handed it to Zhang Zhe, as if she was afraid that Zhang Zhe would regret it.

In fact, she didn’t want to sell it at first, because this hot pot restaurant is really popular recently, and several colleagues in the company have come here with their boyfriends to eat.

In addition, she also wanted to see if this rich second generation who is not short of money would raise the price.

But as soon as the two girls behind her opened their mouths, her calculations could only fall through.

But three thousand yuan is not a small amount. If she buys a bottle of SK2’s magic water and a bottle of cream, the remaining money is enough for a meal at Haidilao.

Hot pot is everywhere, isn’t it nice to earn three thousand yuan for free to buy cosmetics?

Zhang Zhe took the number paper, smiled apologetically at the two girls at No. 481, and then said:

“Payment code, I’ll scan the money for you.”

Zhang Zhe didn’t care about the other party’s little tricks.

Since Xia Wanxing wanted to eat the hot pot at this restaurant, and he promised her, it didn’t matter if he spent a little more money.

Three or two thousand yuan is nothing to Zhang Zhe now.

What’s more…

[Spend 3,000 yuan, and the rebate amount will increase by 300,000 yuan! 】

With the system rebate, the couple may make a lot of money, but Zhang Zhe will never lose!

After Zhang Zhe scanned the money, the couple left happily. At this time, the staff who witnessed everything also stepped forward and said carefully:

“Brother, it’s your turn…”

What originally needed to queue for a long time or even wait another day was solved in less than a minute.

The charm of money is so fascinating.

Led by the staff, the two came to an empty seat and sat down.

Xia Wanxing felt a little regretful now. She shouldn’t have made an appointment with the senior at this restaurant, otherwise the senior wouldn’t have spent three thousand yuan to buy the other party’s seat.

Everything just happened too fast. When she reacted, Zhang Zhe was ready to pay.

The price was already negotiated, and she couldn’t say anything else, otherwise Zhang Zhe would lose face…

After hesitating for a while, Xia Wanxing said:

“Senior, the three thousand yuan just now, I…”

“Hurry up and order the dishes, I was hungry halfway here.”

Zhang Zhe knew what she wanted to say and changed the subject:

“Today is not only to treat you to a meal, but also to celebrate that I made a lot of money and bought my first car, so don’t worry about the money…”
