C485 Insufficient Balance?
C485 Insufficient Balance?
The three of them played in the room for nearly two hours. After they were done eating and drinking, Wu Tian suggested: "We're done eating and drinking, let's go."
"Alright."
Zhang Dongyang wiped his drunk face and turned to look at Xu Pei, "Manager Xu, you didn't eat anything just now. Why don't you eat something else?"
"I'm not hungry." Xu Pei shook her head. Now that there was an eighty million hole in the company's finances, she had no appetite.
She hadn't been able to get the money, but at least she had a promissory note. At least she had a trace of the money in her financial records.
Now even the promissory notes were torn apart. Without any proof, in the financial records, how was she supposed to deal with this account?
"Alright, since Manager Xu doesn't want to eat it, then let's go." Zhang Dongyang stretched his back and stood up from the sofa.
"Manager Xu, go and pay. I'll pay for today's expenses." Wu Tian turned around and ordered Xu Pei.
"That won't do." Before Xu Pei could reply, Zhang Dongyang quickly said, "I've already agreed to treat you guys. How can I let you guys pay?"
"Then we will be embarrassed …"
"If you still recognize me as your friend, then I'll treat you."
"Alright, then I'll accept it." Wu Tian pursed his lips and smiled, but did not rush to pay the bill.
He had never intended to pay the bill, so saying that it was just a formality was all.

On the other hand, Xu Pei secretly heaved a sigh of relief. Luckily, Zhang Dongyang was in a rush to pay the bill, otherwise the company would have to pay extra.
Today's consumption was at least a few tens of thousands, it would be inconvenient for the company to pay for it.
Originally, she was here to collect the debt on behalf of the company. If she didn't get the money and spent several tens of thousands more, it wouldn't make sense anywhere.

Zhang Dongyang took out a gold card from his pocket and slapped it on the table, then said to the waiter, "Beauty, help me pay the bill."
"Alright."
The waiter picked up the bank card, turned around and left the room, then quickly ran back, "Sorry sir, the balance on your card is not enough to pay the bill."
"Nonsense, I have over 5 million on this card. How could it not be enough?"
"Indeed, it's not enough." The attendant handed over the gold card and said with a smile, "You have to pay 88.64 million this time. After the discount, you have to pay 88.6 million."

Hearing this number, Zhang Dongyang's legs went soft and he collapsed onto the sofa.
He thought he had misheard, and after a long pause, he asked again, "How much did we spend today?"
"88.6 million." the waiter repeated, her words clear.
Hearing this number, Zhang Dongyang was dumbfounded, and even Xu Pei was shocked.
She had known that this was a high-end location and that the cost of food was much higher than that of an ordinary entertainment club. However, she had not expected it to be so outrageously expensive.
Eighty million is an astronomical number. I'm afraid this price will be enough to buy the entire Red Rose Club.
The first thought that came to her mind was that the waiter must have miscalculated. There was no way the consumption today would be so expensive.
Zhang Dongyang's thoughts were the same. After a slight pause, he said to the waiter, "You must have calculated incorrectly. Hurry up and show me the bill."
"Here's your bill." After saying this, the waiter took out a long printed bill and handed it over.
The bill was two meters long, and not a single item was too expensive. The room cost was 8800 yuan, and the other items added up exceeded 100,000 yuan.
After scanning the bill, Zhang Dongyang's gaze finally landed on the red wine bill. He couldn't help but exclaim: "20 million?"
This time, they drank seven bottles of red wine. The most expensive wine reached 20 million, while the cheapest reached 5 million.

Zhang Dongyang slapped the bill on the table and asked the waiter, "Did you guys get it wrong? How come a bottle of red wine costs twenty million? "
"Sir, all of our consumption is clearly marked. This is the price." The salesman pointed to the price on the bottle.
"23 million?" Zhang Dongyang picked up the sticker and saw that it was indeed priced at 23 million.
In addition to the price of red wine, there was also a place of origin and year on the label. According to the description, this wine was produced in France and was made by hand. It was unique in the world.
He opened several posters in succession and found that they were made in different regions and were the only red wine in the world.
What's unique? What is handmade?
To put it bluntly, this was a gimmick and a scheme. It was purposefully used to cheat money.
In such a high-end place, no one would look at the price before opening the bottle. They would only know that it was a sky-high price after drinking the wine.
He had often heard of this before, it was usually high-end places to cheat the rich. This was Zhang Dongyang's first time experiencing this kind of thing.
"Right, there are prices on the posters." The smile on the waiter's face was still as bright as ever.
"The price is decided by you guys, your red wine is not worth the money." Zhang Dongyang gritted his teeth and shouted angrily at the waiter.
"It's not up to you to decide whether it's worth it or not." The waiter appeared to be very calm as he replied with ease, "If you feel that it's not worth it, then you don't have to drink. After drinking the wine, you have to pay."
"Then before I drank it, you didn't tell me the price."
"You didn't even ask us the price before you drank it."
"I …"
Zhang Dongyang was choked to the point that he couldn't say a word. He grinded his teeth for a long time before saying: "You guys are clearly scammers, I can't give you the money."
If it was several hundred thousand dollars, he wouldn't care about it. But over eighty million — he wouldn't be willing to be cheated.
"So, you want to eat an overlord's meal?" The waiter's face sank, and her eyes became even colder.
"I will only give you the money for the normal consumption. I won't give you the money for the red wine."
"That's not up to you." The salesman stopped smiling, took out his walkie-talkie and said, "Someone is eating an overbearing meal."
Just as she finished speaking, more than ten black clothed men barged in.
They were all from Bai Sha Tang, and they looked even more domineering than normal bullies. Their eyes were clearly filled with murderous intent.
All of a sudden, the atmosphere in the room tensed up. Xu Pei was so scared that her face turned pale, and her body unconsciously curled up.
She had never seen anything major. It was her first time seeing such a thing, and she was scared silly.
She really regretted coming to a place like this with them. Not only did she not eat a single mouthful, she even offended Bai Shatang.
"What do you want?" Zhang Dongyang was so scared that his body trembled when he saw so many thugs barging in. He was no longer drunk.
He knew that these people were from Bai Shatang. If he offended these thugs, he would be beaten to death.
He dared to provoke anyone, because if he couldn't afford to offend them, he could still make a scene. But not only could he not afford to offend Bai Sha Tang, he did not dare to act shameless.
"According to Bai Shatang's rules, people who don't pay for their meals will have their hands and feet broken and then be thrown into the mountains to be fed to the wolves." The attendant's expression was as cold as a stone.
