Tiger Police

Chapter 483 Lemon Tea

The quarrel in the circle was getting louder and louder. Before Hu Pingtao had time to think about it, he revealed his identity and shouted: "I am a policeman, please step aside."

It was hard to squeeze in.

Seeing him and Wang Gui in uniforms appearing, a middle-aged woman in oversized shorts seemed to see a savior, hurried over and pointed at the middle-aged man opposite: "You guys are here. It's him , he is a liar!"

Hu Pingtao took out his notebook and asked unhurriedly, "What happened?"

He has seen many similar situations.Around the Workers' Cultural Palace, especially the Textile Square, people often call the police at night.Either the old man who danced in the square and the roller skating operator quarreled over the venue, or the person who took the child for a walk complained about the dog walker.

What's even more weird is that some people fly kites in the middle of the night.In order to facilitate identification, a simple lamp is specially installed on the kite, the kind with a small battery, and the light flashes at high altitude.As a result, someone called and complained: They said they had discovered a UFO, and they said it with nose and eyes, and they were very excited on the phone.He also clamored that he had taken pictures with his mobile phone. Even if it wasn't aliens attacking the earth, it must be an alien life form lurking somewhere observing human beings, and it was a close-up one.

Some people were very vigilant, saying that they had discovered "suspected criminals engaged in sabotage, or enemy agents used special methods to transmit information."

Some people are even more outrageous, saying that they watched the stars at night and found that the stars have shifted, predicting that a major catastrophic event will occur in the near future. loss."

This is not a joke, it is a real thing that has happened.

"There is a problem with the lemon tea he sells." The middle-aged woman stretched out her thick arms, and pointed her carrot-like hands at the middle-aged male stall owners who were standing there.

This remark completely annoyed the male stall owner, and without thinking about it, he opened his mouth and scolded: "I think you have a brain problem. You went out without taking medicine, or did you go out after taking medicine? Anyway, you are already in the late stage of brain cancer, and you can't take it." The medicine is the same."

"Who are you talking about?"

"Just you, what's the matter?"

The middle-aged woman became anxious, and turned to Hu Pingtao: "Comrade police, you heard, he scolded me."

This is a hotspot public area, and there are many people around, and as the quarrel between the two continues to escalate, there are more and more onlookers.Hu Pingtao found it difficult, so he had to follow the procedure.He turned to the male stall owner: "Okay, don't say a few words. Take out your ID cards, and I'll register with you."

The name on the man's ID card is Su Li.After registration, Hu Pingtao returned the certificate to the other party, looked at the "GAC Trumpchi" parked behind Su Li with its trunk open, and looked at a series of cold drink tools beside him, and said quite unexpectedly: " Your set of equipment can do it!"

Since the second half of last year, the two hottest things in the catering industry are live broadcasting and stall setting.

Many places now have different economic policies for night markets.Mainly to stimulate consumption, but also to facilitate urban management.Street stalls, which used to be painful and tiring, have now become a new way for young people to socialize.

"Trunk Bazaar" has attracted much attention.On the social network platform, someone showed the results of setting up a stall based on his private car-a total of 5 yuan.

With successful people, there is naturally no shortage of followers.

Some people want to make money, some people play with feelings.An old and old three-wheeled motorcycle has been personalized and transformed into an online celebrity drink cart.Install extension brackets, spread red and black checked tablecloths, add thoughtful hand-painted cups, write a few poems suitable for the occasion, bring lemons, syrup and a bucket of ice, and you can start business.

There is no threshold for these operations, and anyone can see them at a glance.She is full of personality and full of literary style. When she shows up on a hot summer night and sees others making a lot of money on the street, more and more people feel greedy.

Being a policeman is not as easy as it seems on the surface.In addition to commuting to and from get off work normally, you also need to study sociology and various details produced under the changing times.

Hu Pingtao is very interested in the "trunk economy".He is very familiar with the Binhai police. Wang Yongjiang and Cao Yong often call to greet each other. During the chat, they talked about various topics about the new economy of the night market.

There have been several cases in Binhai, all related to the trunk economy.Mainly counterfeit high-end clothing and shoes, as well as various luxury accessories.In the information that Wang Yongjiang passed on to Hu Pingtao, the seized items included bags, belts, watches, and even life-size imitation dolls.

For "Nike" shoes, even if they are discounted in specialty stores, they cost three to five hundred pairs.On the "trunk stall", the new model just released on the official website can be easily purchased for 80 yuan.

Want a new limited edition bag from "Louis Vuitton"?Are you worried that the imitation models bought online by Moubao and Goudong are poor and unbearable?It doesn't matter, I have everything you want here, pick whatever you want, choose whatever you want.No bargaining for two hundred and one, and it comes with a special anti-counterfeiting mark on brand new luxury accessories, as well as a special leather cleaner.

It is true that not everyone who drives a private car to do night market business is a liar.Hu Pingtao has seen young car owners whose trunks are full of self-brewed wine.He bought two cases, and the taste of the wine was very good, even better than the branded goods in the store.

On a breezy summer night, a row of private cars parked along the street with their trunks open. The car owners set up tents, set up stalls, put up small horses, warm light bulbs and artistic signboards. The sub-picture is comfortable just by looking at it.

Hu Pingtao had seen Su Li's set of cold drink tools on the Internet, and the complete set would cost at least 2 yuan, which is a real high-end product.

Hearing this sentence, Su Li's vigilant face began to loosen, and a smile appeared: "You are a smart guy."

Hu Pingtao smiled and asked, "What do you sell here? Coffee or cold drinks?"

"Beat lemon tea, as well as iced coffee and ice cream." Su Li turned sideways, letting out a signboard that was hidden behind him before.Still has a strong hand-painted literary style, and it can be seen that he has a lot of skills in this area.

Hu Pingtao was not busy understanding what happened, he asked seriously: "How much can you earn in a month doing this?"

Everyone has to be curious, and cases have to be dealt with sooner or later, and it doesn't take a few minutes to simply ask about the situation.

Su Li turned around and walked to the back of the stall, pointing to the juicer equipment and explained: "This is time-consuming. I go out to set up a stall every night, and it usually lasts about three hours, because there are fewer people after eleven o'clock. To do this, you first need to beat the lemon, then pick up the tea soup, add syrup, sorbet, seal, and make a cup... I have practiced at home for a while, and I am relatively proficient in the operation. It takes at least one to two minutes to make a cup. After calculation, Even if you do it continuously, it will be about 2 cups at most in one night."

Hu Pingtao asked with interest: "How much do you sell for a cup of lemon tea?"

Su Li said frankly: "Ten yuan. This price is not high. I basically know all the lemon tea sellers in the city. Ten yuan is the base price, and there are also eleven and twelve. You know it Yes, I’m selling it for a really cheap price.”

"Ten yuan a cup, and that night can sell 3 yuan." Hu Pingtao's focus is on income: "Yes! It will be more than [-] in a month."

"That's not how accounts are calculated." Su Li smiled wryly and shook his head: "It's not possible to sell so much every night. And things like lemon tea pay attention to a sense of freshness. In fact, most of the people who come to me to buy cold drinks are young people. It’s just a novelty to try something new. Of course, there are not no repeat customers, but there are really few.”

"We also have to consider the weather. When it rains, we can't open a stall. Anyway, it is impossible to sell more than [-] yuan in a month, and sometimes not even [-] yuan. Costs, materials, and fuel costs are taken into account. What, the margins are really thin."

Hu Pingtao's curiosity was basically satisfied.He asked seriously: "What's going on today? Why are you arguing?"

Su Li raised his finger to He Xiangmei who was standing opposite: "At around eight o'clock, she came to me to buy lemon tea. I made a cup for her, and she drank almost half of it while standing opposite my stall, then came over suddenly, Say that my lemon tea is fake, and insist on making me lose money."

"I usually drive out to set up a stall, and I've seen all kinds of messy people. Anyway, it's only ten yuan. Since you say so, I'll pay you the money and treat it as a free drink."

"But I didn't expect that instead of leaving after taking the money, she said that she felt very unwell, and insisted that there was something wrong with my lemon tea. If I want to send her to the hospital, I will have to pay her 5000 yuan for mental damage."

Speaking of this, Su Li looked very angry: "This woman is obviously a scammer. Who is in the way of me doing my business well? I also want to come to Pengci for a cup of lemon tea that costs ten yuan. When I am easy to bully No? I called the police when I got pissed off."

After listening to Su Li's narration, Hu Pingtao turned to He Xiangmei and asked seriously: "Why do you say that the lemon tea he sells is fake?"

He Xiangmei's chubby round face seemed a little nervous. She stared at Su Li and pointed to the sign beside the booth: "I've seen the brand "Severely Beating Lemon Tea" on the Internet. It was made by a crooked person. It's ok."

Hu Pingtao didn't understand the meaning of He Xiangmei's words for a while, and asked suspiciously: "... Is there any problem with this brand?"

He Xiangmei explained: "What he made is not a real lemon tea. It's the same as franchising a brand. He must be authorized before he can use this brand."

In this way, Hu Pingtao understood.He turned around and looked at Su Li amusedly.The latter was still full of anger, and shouted at He Xiangmei: "You know, I set up a stall here to make cold drinks. Also, the violent lemon tea is not a certain person's exclusive brand, and he has not registered this signboard. No matter who it is All of them can be used, this does not involve management rights, let alone franchise."

"Also, open your eyes and take a good look. Is my sign the same as what you saw on the Internet?"

With that said, Su Li turned around and came out from behind the booth, and moved the hand-painted signboard to the front.

"Beat lemon tea violently", he added the word "violence" next to the handle, which seems a little strange, but no one will take this special word seriously, and the subconscious will understand it as a common meaning.

He Xiangmei turned a blind eye to this, and insisted: "Anyway, you are a counterfeit and shoddy product. I drink your tea now, and my stomach hurts all the time. You have to send me to the hospital."

"Get lost!" Su Li was furious by her successive quarrels, and without even thinking about it, he opened his mouth and cursed: "You are crazy and cause trouble and find someone else, don't delay my business."

The people around were talking.

"Is there something wrong with this woman's brain? At the beginning, I thought it was the owner of the cold drink stall, but now it sounds like this woman's understanding is wrong."

"I've heard of the brand of violent lemon tea. It's a very simple cold drink method, lemon and syrup. This woman is also the same. She bought and drank it all, but she turned around and said that the boss sold something wrong. It's obvious to blackmail people."

"Could it be that she fell in love with the owner of the cold drink stall and deliberately wanted him to take responsibility...hahahaha!"

"There are so many problems with a cold drink... Really..."

He Xiangmei's fat face flushed red when she heard the discussions from around.

Suddenly, she pointed at Su Li and said, "The water you use for cold drinking is not clean. Anyway, my stomach hurts after drinking it. You...you have to lose money."

Hu Pingtao couldn't stand watching anymore, and asked, "What's wrong with you?"

He Xiangmei covered her stomach with her left hand: "...it just hurts my stomach."

Hu Pingtao asked seriously: "Why don't you go to the bathroom first, and then come back and have a good talk?"

"I won't go." He Xiangmei took a step back subconsciously, watching Hu Pingtao with vigilant eyes: "What do you want to do? You have been leaning towards him since you were born... Do you know each other? I will call you one, two, three Four or five complained that you deliberately covered up."

Hu Pingtao was very patient: "That is your freedom and right. You are welcome to call at any time. If you are not satisfied with my mediation, you can go to the Municipal Public Security Bureau's external service window to apply for administrative reconsideration."

"But I have to say something up front: Malicious fraud is a crime. If someone sells cold drinks at a good stall, you have to have a basis for saying his lemon tea is fake!"

"Also, the judging criteria you mentioned just now are those I saw on the Internet. I really can't comment on this. Because this is the jurisdiction of the industry and commerce and food safety supervision departments. So I can't help you with this matter. You can solve it, you have to wait until tomorrow when you go to work, and find someone from the food supervision department."

He Xiangmei frowned, obviously she did not expect such a result: "How can you police ignore it?"

Hu Pingtao didn't get angry, he said lightly: "Just call [-] to call the police, no matter what happens, we will call the police. But not everything can be resolved after we come to the scene. For example, disputes between you, just It belongs to the category of food safety supervision. I will record the problem now, and you will sign it later, and then the case will be transferred to the food safety supervision side, and they will take over and handle it."
