HRPM – Chapter 164 The Boss is Very Stingy (1)

“Reporting to Miss, business has been absolutely booming lately—better than ever. The rooftop private seats were fully occupied long ago. There are only a few seats left in the main hall. How about sitting there instead?”

Xiao Yu and Xiao Che were both astonished when they heard this. She was the owner herself, yet her subordinate still dared to tell her to sit in the main hall? Was that manager tired of keeping his job?

Who would have thought Jin Luoluo would actually say, “That’s fine too. Go get busy, no need to attend to us.”

“Luoluo, you’re the owner here. Don’t you keep a private room reserved for yourself, so no matter when you come there’ll always be a seat available? Are you seriously making us sit out in the crowded main hall?”

Prince Xiao Yu had been invited to meals countless times before, but he had never once had to eat in a public dining hall. It felt unbearably humiliating.

“Why would I keep a special room reserved? I hardly ever come here to eat anyway. Leaving one empty all the time would just be a waste. Do you know that the people who can afford those private seats are all extremely wealthy? One meal can bring in over a thousand taels. Why would I keep a room unused instead of letting customers make money for me?”

She wasn’t stupid enough to leave money unearned for no reason. If she wanted to eat, having meals at home with her father was much more enjoyable anyway.

“You expect us, imperial princes, to sit among common townsfolk while eating?” Xiao Che glanced around the hall. It was packed with noisy chatter everywhere, so loud it was almost unbearable. How could anyone eat in this environment?

“What’s wrong with ordinary people? Don’t underestimate the power of the masses. Sitting alone in a private room is so boring and lifeless. But in the main hall, you can eat while listening to all kinds of interesting gossip and news. It whets the appetite and helps digestion too. Besides, remember that I’m the one treating you today, so everything goes by my rules. Eat or don’t eat, suit yourselves.”

Jin Luoluo took the lead and sat down at a small round table.

Very soon, nine fragrant dishes were brought out, served on Rain Lake white jade porcelain plates.

The porcelain dishes were not large, and delicate blue floral patterns curled elegantly around the edges, giving them an exquisite and refined appearance.

Each plate contained beautifully prepared dishes, decorated with flower petals at the side, making them pleasing both to the eye and the spirit.

Xiao Yu could not help viewing Jin Luoluo in a new light. No wonder she had become the richest woman around.

Even from the details of the dishes, one could see the ingenuity and care put into them, creating a unique impression.

Sometimes, success in business depended precisely on winning through originality—providing customers with thoughtful, meticulous service in every aspect so as to win their hearts.
