"Oh, by the way, I also want four water tanks, so let him take them with him. We will need to add some water when we transport the lobsters." Su Le thought of the water tanks and instructed.
Xu Changsheng nodded. "Okay."
Su Le hung up the phone. The restaurant was still too small. If it were bigger, it would probably sell more.
It’s only 50 yuan a night, how can I make 1,000 yuan in a week?
Su Le thought about it all night.
The next day
Arriving at the restaurant, Su Le started asking the waiter to wash the lobsters. Zhang Liang didn't understand. "Boss Su, no one should be buying lobsters this morning, right?"
Su Le smiled and said, "Let's go to the train station, you come with us."
The only crowded place is the train station, and even state-owned restaurants are located nearby. This is also one of the solutions Su Le came up with.
The two of them cooked lobster, which weighed ten pounds.
Three people set off, leaving one waiter behind to serve everyone the food.
Arriving at the train station, which was packed with people, Su Le took a folding table from his bicycle and placed two large enamel basins on the back.
Su Le filled a small bowl and placed it in front.
People came and went, and when they smelled the fragrance, they would stop to take a look. Su Le was not in a hurry and asked the waiter to fan away the smell.
A man with a smell of poop came over and asked, "Can this be eaten?"
Zhang Liang nodded and pointed to a small bowl in front of him. "Maybe try two."
The man took one out and tasted it, taking a mouthful of the shell and then spatting twice. "It's very hard."
Zhang Liang glanced at Su Le's expression, took out one and showed it to him. The man tried another and nodded. "How much? How much?"
Zhang Liang smiled and said, "90 cents a pound."
The man frowned. "We have plenty of this in the river. Ninety cents more?"
Su Le stood up and said to the man, "You don't know how to cook it, and you don't know how to clean it. It took us many attempts to succeed, and some people even got hurt. We'll make it and move it over, and you can just eat it straight from the oven. It's not expensive at all. It's worth it if it tastes good."
The man looked at Su Le, then at the lobster in front of him. It was indeed delicious. "Give me a pound." He took out ninety cents from his pocket and gave it to Zhang Liang.
Zhang Liang placed a scale on the side, picked up the shrimp with a spoon, shook it, shook out the soup, and put it in the box on the scale. The man nodded, and Zhang Liang added a spoonful of soup. "The soup can be mixed with rice, it's very fragrant." The man smiled and nodded in thanks.
The onlookers came up to eat two, just like the man did. Ten pounds of them sold out quickly. Most of them were people coming out of the train station, buying them to take home. The rest looked at them disappointedly.
Zhang Liang said to the crowd, "There's a Chengle Restaurant next to the department store. You can go there to buy it."
Everyone remembered their names, and a small number of them followed Su Le and the others, chatting with them as they walked towards the restaurant.
Zhang Liang and Zhang Yi quickly prepared a pound of food for everyone, and everyone walked home after getting their food. It wasn't far away.
"Zhang Liang, you can go again in the afternoon." Su Le said to Zhang Liang.
Zhang Liang nodded. A visit before dinner would bring back a crowd. They'd have some drinks and something to eat. Su Le glanced at the two nearby stores; they were still empty. He wondered who owned them.
System, do you know whose store is next to this?
"You can ask the chiefs."
Su Le's eyes lit up. He walked to the side and called his boss, "Hi, Chief."
The chief's eyes twitched when he heard her voice, and he felt that something was wrong. "What's wrong?"
Su Le said with a smile, "Nothing, I just recently researched a new dish and wanted to let the leader try it."
The chief wasn't buying it at all. "You're being so nice, why don't you just say it directly?"
Su Le touched his nose. This old leader really understood. "It's like this. I need two stores, that one..."
"No!" the leader refused.
Su Le continued with a smile, "I think we can talk about it. Look, the store is empty anyway. Why don't you let me develop it and I can buy it."
The chief thought for a moment and asked, "Are you that rich?"
Su Le quickly shook his head and said, "I don't have any money! I think I'm quite useful. I have a sharp mind, and maybe I can make something to serve the country."
The chief's eyelids twitched. "Qi Ming has encountered some difficulties. Go and solve them. If they are developed, you can install the software you provided and we will see the results."
Su Le frowned. There were still five and a half days left until the mission was over. If the research took longer, the mission would have failed. Even if there were two more stores, they wouldn't be of much use by then. "Captain, I'm also experimenting with something new right now, and I'm on the verge of success. I can't give up halfway. I need another week. I'll check it out then."
The leader was interested in hearing something new and asked, "What are you researching? Tell me about it."
System, system, what is the reward for completing the task?
"Award for fiber optic communication technology."
Su Le narrowed his eyes. That was a major invention of Country M in 1977, and a paper published in 1970. "Fiber optics!"
The leader frowned. They had already been researching this. They had started researching it in 1974 and had made a breakthrough. “We are currently studying this.”
Su Le smiled. "I know, but it's not yet time for a trial period. My experiment could shave a few years off the process."
The chief hung up the phone immediately, convened an emergency meeting, and asked the old dean to come and attend the meeting.
Su Le exhaled. "System, if they ask me where the lab is, what should I say?"
"Host, don't worry about this. The system will make all research results reasonable."
Su Le nodded, and he felt relieved. He was really worried that he would be captured and studied one day.
It wasn't until five o'clock in the afternoon that Su Bei came over with the land deed and handed it to Su Le, "Here you go."
"Wait a minute, I have something to take back to the leaders." Su Le hurried to the kitchen and quickly cooked 13 pounds of lobster with 13 spices. He divided it into two boxes.
"Brother, this small one is for you and third brother, and the three boxes together are for the leader. By the way, you have to eat it like this." Su Le also took one out from the kitchen and ate it for Su Bei to see.
Su Bei nodded. "I understand."
Su Le opened the sealed file and found only one store inside. Su Le didn't worry too much about it. One store was also good enough.
Su Le called Zhang Yi over to clean up, and then took out a few tables and chairs from the warehouse and put them in place.
Zhang Yi quickly arranged for a waiter to come and sweep the floor, while he himself was responsible for cooking and cashiering in the store.
Su Le helped to clean and soon the floor was clean.
The two of them set up the table, then went to the warehouse to get the barbecue grill, placed it between the two stores, and preheated the charcoal.
