The Supreme Soldier King of the Lady CEO-Chapter 971 - 951: Embarrassment—Counting Coins Together!

"How am I supposed to know if there are 75,924 coins here? If it's more, fine, but if it's less, won't I be at a loss?"

"If you're worried, you can count them yourself. If you're willing to count, we'll pay you ten times for every coin missing. How about that?"

The restaurant manager crossed his arms and looked at Ye Huan with a playful grin.

On the cruise ship owned by the Great Emperor himself, offending the emperor's close aide, Shen Taoyuan, this kid is either extremely foolish or downright stupid.

Doesn't he know that on this ship, Shen Taoyuan has a thousand ways to make his life difficult?

But on the bright side, it's because of fools like this that I have the opportunity to help Assistant Shen and get in her good books, haha!

The restaurant manager sneered with satisfaction, feeling he had struck it rich!

It's just a matter of helping to trouble a fool, and in return, I might win Assistant Shen's favor and potentially become a friend of the Great Emperor. Brilliant!

"You're asking me to count all these coins, aren't you deliberately making things difficult for me?"

"What, you're not happy about it?"

Before Ye Huan could respond, the restaurant manager jabbed Ye Huan's chest twice with his fingers and arrogantly said, "On this ship, no matter how displeased you are, you have to swallow it!"

Having said this with arrogance, he pointed at the tub full of coins and sneered, "Hurry it up, these coins are yours, but the tub belongs to our restaurant. You have no right to take it away. You have half an hour to move all these coins; otherwise, if this big tub stays here for long, it will affect the restaurant's appearance and cause us losses. By then, we'll confiscate your money!"

At the manager's words, the wealthy patrons in the restaurant were clearly displeased.

This guy is obviously following Shen Taoyuan's orders to deliberately make things difficult for Ye Hu'an.

Shen Taoyuan had a strong tease of sarcasm on her face.

With tens of thousands of coins, how could one move them quickly without a container?

There are only two paths laid out in front of Ye Hu'an!

First, give up the money and leave in disgrace, which means yielding to the restaurant manager and losing face completely!

Second, carry away these coins!

But to carry them, you'd have to make several hundred trips back and forth between the suite and the restaurant to complete the task!

Also, every trip carrying coins would definitely attract strange looks!

Embarrassment brought upon oneself!

In the end, it would be Shen Taoyuan who achieves her goal, regaining a small win!

One could say this plan to harass is flawless!

"Is this how you treat your customers? Can't you have some professional ethics?" Ye Huan criticized the restaurant manager, a subtle smile forming at the corner of his mouth.

"Exactly, your restaurant is too much of a mess!"

"The stuff in the restaurant is already expensive, a steamed bun costs 88, a cup of soymilk costs 200, it's like daylight robbery, and now you're still acting so pretentious with customers, can't you have some face?!"

"Others treat customers like gods; you're treating customers like fools!"

"We protest!"

The wealthy patrons voiced out together, having long harbored discontent against the restaurant, now using this opportunity to express it!

"I said, no matter how dissatisfied you are, you have to keep it in!" The restaurant manager put his hands on his hips, arrogance in his manner: "We're the only restaurant on the ship, if you have the guts, don't come again, starve you bunch!"

Hearing this, the wealthy patrons were furious.

Ye Huan also displayed "outrage": "Your restaurant is really too detestable. Do you have a VIP card service? I want to get VIP to complain about you!"

"Pfft."

In the distance, Shen Taoyuan couldn't help it and burst into laughter hearing this.

Is Ye Hu'an really stupid enough to want to give money to the restaurant?

The sarcastic look on the restaurant manager's face intensified, never has he seen someone this dumb!

He looked over to Shen Taoyuan for advice, seeing her nod, she discreetly gave him an "OK" hand signal.

It makes sense, if there's a fool giving money, why not take it?

"We have a VIP service, but opening a card costs at least fifty thousand." The restaurant manager looked at Ye Huan with a contemptuous smile.

"Fifty thousand, that's so expensive?"

"If you think it's expensive, don't do it, why complain so much!"

"Who said I'm not doing it? Since there's cash here, let's go ahead!"

As soon as Ye Huan said this, the restaurant manager's expression changed instantly: "What do you mean?"

"Isn't there over seventy thousand in cash here? Count out fifty thousand as my card fee!" Ye Huan pointed at the tub and shouted.

"Kid, are you messing with me!"

The restaurant manager's face turned violent, rolling up his sleeves, he was about to thrash Ye Huan!

"Wei Shengjin, Manager Wei, I'm here to give you a 'kind' reminder."

Ye Huan glanced at the badge hanging on the restaurant manager's chest, internally cringing at his odd name, while displaying hands calmly in his pockets and giving a cold sneer: "Refusing legal tender is a very serious criminal act. For large amounts, you can be sentenced to ten years minimum, worst case, life, even execution! Although the ship is currently sailing in international waters, it's registered in Huaxia, Huaxia laws still apply!"

"I've memorized your face and name, if you don't use these coins to open an account for me, one day when I finish my journey and return to Huaxia, I'll certainly report you to the police."

"Judging your age, you probably have elders and children to care for. Is it worth putting yourself into deep trouble just to help someone make difficulties for me? Think about your parents, your wife and children. Without you, they'll be harassed and bullied by thugs, fearing every day; your child growing up might be extorted by thugs for protection fees, bullied by them, maybe even your wife gets abducted and harassed!"

"But at that time, maybe you've already been shot, or serving a life sentence, think about such a helpless scene, do you really think it's worth it?"

When Ye Huan mentioned the severity of the punishment, Wei Shengjin was completely dumbfounded, then scared; he was just a crude guy, didn't know refusing cash was such a serious crime!

When Ye Huan got to the point about having elderly and children, cold sweat started forming on Wei Shengjin's forehead, his face full of panic, he indeed has an elderly mother aged eighty and a child not yet weaned.

In the end, when hearing the possible fate of his wife and child, he immediately fell to his knees!

"Oh my!"

Wei Shengjin, panicking, hugged Ye Huan's leg: "Master Ye, I'll... I'll open the account for you right now, I beg you, please don't report me to the police!"

"Come on, start counting."

"I'm giving you half an hour, fifty thousand, not one coin more or less. If you can't count it out in half an hour, don't blame me for heading back to report you."

Ye Huan squinted with a smile, stepping aside.

Wei Shengjin was in a complete panic, hurriedly shouting for all restaurant staff to come out and count coins!

At first, he thought it was just about cooperating with Shen Taoyuan to casually make things difficult for Ye Hu'an, little did he know it would risk having the matter escalate to an extent of possibly facing execution!

If he had known earlier, he wouldn't have dared to assist Shen Taoyuan in troubling Ye Hu'an even if it meant dying!

This is simply courting death!

Forget about getting rich; it's insanity? Lost everything!

For the sake of a vague opportunity, he might end up facing the grim reality of being sentenced to death!

He might lose his life!

Wei Shengjin cried with a mournful look, truly frightened and extremely regretful, on the verge of breaking into tears!

He frantically counted the coins, feeling the disdainful gazes from the wealthy patrons, he felt extremely uncomfortable, as if he had swallowed a lump of mud.

However, at this rate, fifty thousand coins can't be counted within half an hour!

More manpower is needed!

Wei Shengjin gritted his teeth, slowly turned his head, using his peripheral vision to glance at Shen Taoyuan, whose face had already turned a shade resembling pig's liver, throwing a look full of pleading!

Hoping Shen Taoyuan could come over to help count the coins together!
