When Liu Xiahui heard the rumors outside, he was shocked.

Then he realized immediately that someone must have done something on purpose, and the candidates for the game didn't have to think about it, and it would automatically emerge. After all, there are only two companies in the entire county that operate pigeon soup. Except for Ge Cuixuan, who has conflicts of interest, who would do such a thing, Liu Xiahui really couldn't think of anyone who would deliberately spread such rumors.

Rumors have been a powerful weapon for killing people from ancient times to the present.

Not to mention the distant future, let’s talk about the film and television superstar Ruan Lingyu of the generation in the Republic of China, who finally chose to commit suicide because of people’s gossip.

Before his death, he left four big words "Human words are fearful" to show his fear and helplessness about rumors.

For example, Ershe's "Fruit Boss" was maliciously lowered because of his life. Many new book friends saw that the rating was so low, and their first reaction was that it must be a garbage book. They turned around and left immediately, and had no interest in clicking in to read it.

Think about it, all books are affected by the ratings, not to mention the things you eat. Once a friend around you says this, even if you don’t know the truth or the false, you will probably have doubts and will not dare to go to this restaurant to eat again.

Therefore, since this rumor was spread by those who were interested, Lao Liu Pigeon Soup was affected immediately, and the business that was already gradually booming became deserted instantly.

Seeing this scene, the boss Liu Xiahui was not in a hurry, but Cui Yongfeng, the soup stewing master, was anxious.

This ace pigeon soup was stewed by him. Isn’t he clear about what ingredients are added?

What a poppy shell, it's really a badass!

"Boss, needless to say, it must be the rumor that has spread from Gecuixuan. If you can compete head-on, you will start to play such deceitful means. It's shameless!" Cui Yongfeng said indignantly.

Liu Xiahui waved his hand and said, "Master Cui, just say this in front of me, but don't go out and say it. Everything must be paid attention to evidence. Things without evidence cannot be said randomly. If you wrongly accuse others, that would be bad!"

Cui Weifeng said: "Boss, this is obvious. If someone hadn't deliberately spread rumors, it would have been impossible for the city to spread in a short time. And those who would do such shameless things would be beyond Gecuixuan, which had a conflict of interest with our Old Willow Pigeon Soup, would have no other people!"

Jiang Zifeng also said angrily: "Xiaohui, Master Cui is right. This matter must be done by Ge Cuixuan. If we can't compete in business, it's so disgusting to use this method!"

Liu Xiahui said calmly: "Actually, such methods are already very gentle. Some people throw dead flies, dead cockroaches, rat shit into the soup when they come to eat, and then deliberately find faults to ruin your reputation!"

Jiang Zifeng said, "Xiaohui, what should we do now? Or we can use this method to fight back?"

Cui Weifeng shook his head and said, "This method is inappropriate. After all, Gecuixuan has been in operation for more than a year. Unlike our old Liu Ge Ace Soup, which has only been in business for more than ten days, it is estimated that it will not be effective when dealing with them with this method!"

Liu Xiahui thought for a while and said, "Don't worry, although rumors are very lethal, they are just rumors after all, and there is still a way to solve them. But since the opponent has already made a move, let's wait and see if he has any follow-up measures!"

Jiang Zifeng nodded and said, "Okay, since you already know Xiaohui, then I'm relieved!"

Cui Weifeng also expressed his loyalty: "Boss, you can use my place, just give me instructions!"

Liu Xiahui smiled and said, "Master Cui is intent. Let's do everything the same tomorrow. Observe for a few more days before talking about it!"

...

Gecuixuan.

Ji Guangming came out of the kitchen and said to his wife who was settled the accounts: "How is it? Has the turnover increased today?"

Luo Minfen said while counting: "There is a little rebound, but it is not obvious, and it is even more incomparable to the past!"

Ji Guangming touched his greasy chin and asked, "What's going on over the old willow pigeon soup?"

Luo Minfen said: "According to Xiaokang, due to rumors, the business there has also become deserted!"

Ji Guangming frowned and said, "This makes no sense. The other party's business has been significantly affected. Why haven't our turnover increased yet?"

"There are so many people in the county who do restaurants. If customers don't go there to eat, it doesn't mean they will come to our place to eat!"

"So, wouldn't I be a villain in vain?"

"That's not the case. It still has its effect. As long as the problem cannot be solved there, his business will not be good. Gradually, our business will naturally return to its previous level!"

"When will we have to wait? Otherwise, our store will take the opportunity to conduct discount activities and bring back previous customers?"

"Lao Ji, what discounts do you want?"

"Just find a reason, such as anniversary celebrations!"

"Lao Ji, is this useful?"

"If it is useful, just try it. No matter how good the discount is, we will make money!"

"Yes, then give it a try?"

"Yeah, I'll try it tomorrow!"

...

Generally speaking, during the Spring Festival, it is the off-season for the catering industry. It is almost until after the Lantern Festival that business slowly returns to normal.

So Liu Xiahui's white-cut stall, roast duck, goose stall, and spicy chicken pot reopened after the Spring Festival. The business was not very good, and it was completely incomparable to the previous New Year.

However, after the Lantern Festival, Liu Xiahui's profits were getting higher and higher day by day.

Especially ten days after the opening of the Laoliu Pigeon Soup Shop, the total profit of all businesses reached its peak, and the daily income exceeded the astonishing 8,000 yuan mark.

Unfortunately, in just a few days, due to rumors, the turnover of Laoliu Pigeon Soup Shop dropped sharply, and its daily income exceeded several hundred, leaving about 7,300.

Of course, even if it reaches about 7,300, the income will exceed that of countless colleagues. Even the most advanced Hyde Hotel in the county may not necessarily reach this number in a day's profit.

And the Hyde Hotel has invested several million yuan, so how much is Liu Xiahui's investment?

By comparing this, you can tell how strong the money-making ability of Liu Xiahui’s business is!

It is precisely because of this confidence that Liu Xiahui was not in a hurry to deal with the rumors with great lethality, but chose to let it go first and see if the opponent has any tricks to use.

...

The law pays attention to evidence. Although the rumors about the addition of poppy shells in the old willow pigeon soup restaurant spread all over the city, many customers were angry and yelled to report it.

However, a report requires evidence. If there is no evidence, if there is no such incident, the report will become a false accusation, which will be held legally responsible.

Therefore, those who went to the relevant departments for reporting because of anger, all of them gave up after hearing the official explanation.

After all, they had no evidence in their hands, they were all heard of it. Although they were spreading with eyes, they did not dare to guarantee that the matter was true.

If there is no risk, you can report it and let the relevant departments go over and check it.

But if you have to take risks, then forget it!

It’s okay to keep things high, do whatever you should do!
