Chapter 412 Sakura's Thoughts

The sashimi was dipped in soy sauce and wasabi, and Bai Xiaobai enjoyed eating it.

After boiling the sake, Xiao Ying knelt down on the tatami and poured a glass of wine for Bai Xiaobai, "Mr. Xiaobai, the dishes are all ready, please use it slowly."

When Sakura was pouring the wine, Bai Xiaobai noticed that her right index finger was covered with a bandage, as if it was injured.

Because I am new here, it is inconvenient to ask some things directly.

Bai Xiaobai casually said, "Excuse me, are you cooking all these dishes?"

"Yes, is it to your liking?" Sakura smiled slightly, revealing a mouthful of neat white teeth.

In Bai Xiaobai's impression, the teeth of the neon girls are not particularly neat, and Sakura is an exception, not only neat but also not buckled at all.

"It's very good. I really like this thick fried egg. The taste is very good." Bai Xiaobai praised, not false at all.

"Thank you for your compliment." Sakura smiled again.

Bai Xiaobai has a cheerful personality and continues to take the initiative to find topics to talk about.

Originally, Xiao Ying's character was relatively shy and jerky, but under Bai Xiaobai's offensive, she gradually became more talkative.

Of course, it mainly revolves around tourist attractions and food.

Bai Xiaobai has a wealth of food knowledge, so he doesn't have to worry about topics.

With a common topic, the two became more and more high.

Bai Xiaobai first asked if there were any strange legends around here.

Of course, Bai Xiaobai's question was rather cryptic, and he didn't directly talk about the mysterious kitchen utensils.

Sakura was honest and told a few local myths about Kappa and the origin of Mount Fuji.

The story is very legendary, but it has nothing to do with the mysterious kitchen utensils.

Sakura then briefly introduced some natural attractions around Lake Kawaguchi, and said that if Bai Xiaobai stayed overnight tomorrow, she could be a tour guide for free tomorrow.

Bai Xiaobai was naturally very happy to agree.

It is better to have a local guide as a guide than to travel alone, and it is convenient to do anything.

In addition, since Sakura mentioned that the hotel's business is not good, Bai Xiaobai continued to ask questions.

In fact, Bai Xiaobai has been a little puzzled.

Although this hostel is not in a prime location, it is not particularly remote. In addition, there is a hot spring, the price is reasonable and affordable, and the food is also well prepared. It stands to reason that it is impossible for no guests to stay.

Originally, Sakura didn't want to tell outsiders about the store, but during the chat just now, she saw that Bai Xiaobai was honest, so she told the truth and talked about some things about herself.

Both of Sakura's parents died in her early years, and she lived with her grandparents in this hotel since she was a child.

Kawaguchiko Station is a stopover point on the way to Mt. Fuji.

Because the scenery here is good, you can overlook Mount Fuji, so most of the Japanese and foreign tourists will stop here for a short time before going to Mount Fuji.

Since the opening of the East Longitude-Mt.

At that time, Sakura's grandfather was still alive. He was not only the owner of the hotel, but also the chef of the restaurant.

The dishes that the guests eat are all from his hands.

Because the food is extremely delicious and the reputation spread far and wide, the business of Sakura Hotel also continued to increase.

It just didn't last long.

It didn't take long for something to go wrong.

Once, a group of mini-tourists who came to stay had a food poisoning incident.

There were a total of eight people in the group. After eating the food in this hotel, all of them suffered from vomiting and diarrhea to varying degrees. Two elderly couples almost died.

The final investigation result of the poisoning incident was that the source of the ingredients was unclean, and the purchase process was not well controlled.

The problem mainly lies with the supplier, and Grandpa Sakura is completely kept in the dark.

It's just that it's unlucky to be stunned at whoever took this matter.

Japan Benzene has very strict laws on catering.Once there is a problem with the catering control, it will cause bad consequences.

Then the store is on its last legs.

The result is generally only one, and that is bankruptcy.

Sakura Ryokan is no exception, because of the mass food poisoning incident, it has had a very bad impact on the local area.

Local TV stations continued to report, and local residents instinctively boycotted the hotel.

Grandpa Sakura was already in poor health, and under the double pressure of body and spirit, he was overwhelmed and finally passed his crotch completely.

After the death of Grandpa Sakura, Sakura Hotel closed for nearly half a year.

Having grown up in a hostel, Sakura has a lot of affection for it, and she doesn't want to see the hostel closed forever because of a pure accident.

After the turmoil subsided, Sakura decided to inherit her grandfather's behest, determined to make this hotel flourish again.

But the reality is cruel.

Because of the bad events that year, the online booking business of Sakura Hotel was blocked by the entire network.

Coupled with the word of mouth of the local population, the reputation of this hotel has dropped to a freezing point.

The business of the reopened Sakura Hotel has plummeted, and it is not what it used to be.

No matter how hard Sakura tried to practice cooking, but almost no customers came to the door.

Ten days and a half months may only have one or two travelers staying.

For example, Bai Xiaobai is the only passenger who came in November.

According to Sakura, the hotel is unable to make ends meet, and it can no longer support it, and is already contacting the buyer.

After the house is sold, Sakura plans to go to Dongjing to live with her grandmother.

After Bai Xiaobai listened to Sakura's narration, although his face was as calm as water, he felt deep sympathy in his heart.

Food safety issues can be big or small.

If it caused mass food poisoning, the hotel would definitely be held accountable, but Bai Xiaobai was shocked to resist a single mistake by a hotel to such an extent.

Of course, from the perspective of tourists, it is also understandable.

After all, when you travel, you want to relax, and it is better to stay in hotels where major events have happened.

Bai Xiaobai personally doesn't really shy away from this.

When he was listening to Sakura's story about the past, he had already cleaned up all the food on the table.

Bai Xiaobai ate Japanese food for the first time in his life, and he felt that the overall feeling was not bad. Compared with Chinese cuisine, it had a different flavor.

Sakura cleared the tableware.

The hotel where I grew up since I was a child, after all, I have feelings and feelings that are hard to let go.

Bai Xiaobai could see a trace of loneliness in Xiao Ying's eyes.

It's just that in this situation, Bai Xiaobai doesn't seem to be able to help.

"By the way, does the hotel have WiFi?" Bai Xiaobai immediately changed the subject.

After eating and drinking, he wants to go online.

"Yes, the password is on the wall." Sakura changed her depression, smiled and gestured to a small paper frame pasted on the wall, and after finishing packing the tableware, she slowly exited the room.

Bai Xiaobai was left alone in the room.

He lay on his back on the tatami mat, rubbed his bulging frog belly, and chatted with the system with his thoughts while logging in to WiFi.

"System, where is the Kirin Black Spot Knife? Can you tell me more about it? The area around Mount Fuji is too vast. I only have seven days, so I probably won't be able to find it."
