Chapter 1376: 1376. The Battle Caused by Watermelons (5/5)
Chapter 1376 1376. The Battle Caused by Watermelon (55)
The content on the sign is easy to understand. Before picking a watermelon, someone will pat and knock on it to listen to the sound.
The supermarket thought that this would damage the watermelon, so they erected a sign prohibiting people from tapping the watermelon.
Originally, this kind of thing was nothing. The watermelon belonged to the supermarket, and it was up to them to decide what the supermarket wanted to do.
However, the supermarket wrote this rule in Chinese characters, which caused dissatisfaction among some Chinese people-this is obvious racial discrimination! It is also an insult to the Chinese!
Maybe the people who hit the watermelon before were of Chinese descent, but who can prove that all the people who hit the watermelon are of Chinese descent? Written in Chinese characters, it is clear that all the shit is pinned on the Chinese, which is not allowed in the United States.
Li Du was also annoyed when he saw the sign, and said, "It's too much, what does it mean to put up this sign? Do you think the Chinese are easy to bully? Such an insult to us?"
"That's right." The girl continued, "Lao Mei is too much, besides knocking watermelon is our Chinese tradition of buying watermelon, right? Even if I don't understand farts, I also know that before buying a watermelon, you have to knock twice. That's right." Watermelon respect!"
Another girl next to her said displeasedly: "That is, if you buy a watermelon and take it away without knocking it, then this watermelon is not recognized. How will you let it face other watermelons? How will its family get mixed up in the watermelon circle in the future?"
What the two girls said made Li Du dumbfounded, but he nodded and said, "Although I don't know how to identify watermelons by listening to their voices, I still knock on watermelons every time I sell them."
"Well, my father told me that knocking watermelons is a necessary process for buying watermelons. If this process is missing, the process of buying watermelons this time will be incomplete." The first girl said again.
Li Du looked at her carefully, not knowing whether she was joking or serious, anyway, it seemed like she was joking, but she looked serious.
The staff at the supermarket didn’t want to continue the quarrel. Their manager waved his hands vigorously and said, “We won’t remove this brand, because you Chinese like knocking watermelons, and if you knock watermelons, how can we sell them?”
Another staff member added: "Yes, you Chinese people will always do all kinds of stupid things in the name of tradition, we will not spoil you!"
This made Li Du work hard. He went up and said, "Sir, you went to buy a car and found that the engine of one car was broken. Would you buy it? You went to buy a cake and found that the cake was not baked. Would you buy it? You Going to buy painkillers and found out that there are brain fragments in them, would you buy them?"
After speaking, he quickly changed his words: "Oh, this analogy is wrong, you will definitely buy brain-dead tablets, because you are a brain-dead, and you need this kind of medicine."
The staff member was furious and said, "You want to curse?"
Li Du said contemptuously: "Why did I swear? I just told the truth, you're already brain-dead."
The staff wanted to throw a punch, but the manager tried to stop him, and said to Li Du: "Sir, you'd better apologize, otherwise we can only call the police."
Li Du sneered and said, "Who should apologize? You should apologize. I have already made an analogy. Why do you not allow customers to choose when you sell things? Customers must buy broken ones?"
The manager said: "Of course customers have the right to choose goods, but you are not a skill in picking watermelons at all. I have already inquired..."
"You must be looking for an idiot." Li Du interrupted him, "What if I prove that tapping watermelons to hear the sound is a skill for picking watermelons?"
The manager thought for a while and said cautiously: "Our watermelons are all good ripe ones, so it's not easy to prove."
Li Du smiled and said, "It's a good proof. I can beat the watermelon and tell you the ripeness of the melon, and judge the quality of the melon. If I can do it, how do you do it?"
The manager said: "Then I will remove this sign."
Li Du hummed: "Original you have to withdraw this brand, this bet is not good, how about this, if I can't keep my promise, I will buy all the watermelons in your supermarket. If I do, your supermarket will be like ours. Apologize!"
The manager said, "Do you know how many watermelons we have in storage?"
Li Du snapped his fingers, and Sophie understood what he meant, took out the **** palladium card from the wallet, and said, "It can buy the entire watermelon in the United States."
After all, Cleveland is a small city, and the manager was ignorant and didn't know the origin of the palladium card, so he said disdainfully, "You should brag."
Someone reminded him: "This is the top bank card issued by ****, every owner is a billionaire, they are not lying."
Hearing this, the manager was startled, and then looked at Li Du carefully.
Li Du was impatient: "Do you want to bet? Or let's change the bet. If I lose ten times the price, I will buy all the watermelons in your supermarket. If you lose, you will pay me ten times the value of the watermelons. How about it?"
The people around watched the excitement and didn't think it was a big deal, they all clamored:
"Bet, isn't your brand just that you don't believe that people can do it?" "Don't be cowardly, fight them to the end!" "This brand is too insulting, you should just apologize directly!"
Li Du said: "Look, they asked you to apologize directly."
The manager was even more unwilling to do this, he simply said: "Then bet, I will apologize if you win..."
"No, it's not you apologizing," Li Du waved his fingers, smiling again, "it's your supermarket apologizing."
Seeing Li Du's characteristic smile, Sophie, who knew Li Du's temper well, quickly reminded the manager: "You guys apologize directly, otherwise the consequences may be even worse."
But the manager didn't understand Sophie's kindness. He thought it was a sideshow, so he said, "Bet, if you win, our supermarket will apologize, but..."
Speaking of this, he smiled slyly, "You have to do as I ask."
"Talk about the conditions." Li Du continued to smile.
The manager took a deep breath and said, "I'll pick out five watermelons, and you sort them out in order, according to the maturity of the watermelons."
"How is this possible?" A Chinese girl exclaimed, "Besides, five watermelons may not necessarily have different ripeness. There is no standard for this!"
The manager put on a rogue posture: "Don't you Chinese think you have special skills for taking pictures of watermelons? Why is there no standard? You can tell by the color!"
Li Du said: "Your condition is not valid, because the sample is too small, so how about I pick five watermelons here and arrange them according to their maturity, is that okay?"
The manager looked at the pile of watermelons, and hesitated again. Seeing that what Li Du said seemed to be quite sure, he was a little afraid of losing.
But the customers who were waiting to watch the excitement were not happy, and they ran on him with words:
"The conditions are reasonable, why are you so timid?" "That's right, for God's sake, it's impossible." "The watermelons here are all about the same ripeness."
