Only after those people left did things calm down at Shiyi's place.
The other diners were even angrier than she was, and some even wanted to start a fight. Luckily, someone stopped them, otherwise the situation would have gotten out of control.
She really has to work overtime tonight, going to the police station for "overtime tea."
The delay meant the skewers, which were almost done, had to be put back in the oven for a second grilling.
The sauce on top had solidified a little; she needed to bake it a bit more to melt it.
As for the missing grilled fish, she didn't plan to add any more.
Nineteen strips will be enough tonight.
In the following time, Shi Yi sped up, and when it was almost midnight, she took out a large bunch of skewers and two grilled fish.
This is the last batch tonight.
Although they say they're open until midnight, we still have to work overtime.
It's past midnight, and there are still two grilled fish left to grill by 7 PM.
There were still quite a few diners queuing behind them.
"This is the last skewer of grilled meat left. Don't wait in line."
It was enough for at most four people, and that was only because she took a little more out of kindness.
However, I don't want to work too much overtime.
Otherwise, you can take everything out of the box.
But if we do that, it will never end; there are still more than a dozen people in line.
"Oh, that's all?"
"Could you take less of the ones in front and give some of the ones in the back to us to try?"
"Yes, I really want to eat it. I came here specifically after finishing my night shift."
"How about one skewer for each person? That should be enough."
Unfortunately, the people in front of them were clearly not happy.
"No, I promised my family I'd buy some to take back with me. I finally have some left, I can't just leave without taking some back, can I?"
"Me too. I bought these for my wife. She's pregnant and really craving them, so I wanted to buy a couple for her to try."
"We can only say that we'll try to take as little as possible."
Therefore, each person in front could only take a maximum of four skewers.
The skewers were originally only enough for 4 people, but 7 people ended up buying them.
There's nothing we can do about the rest.
After finishing grilling the fish, Shi Yi prepared to call it a day and go home.
The same people from yesterday were left to clean up the mess, but today the place was much messier than yesterday, with more plates and grilled fish plates than yesterday, so it was going to be quite a hassle to clean up.
Shi Yi raised their employment fee to 150 per person.
Those people arrived long ago and had already started eating kebabs and grilled fish.
They earn money and spend it all at the same time, not wanting to bring a single penny home.
Seeing that they were all boys, Shi Yi told them to be careful while tidying up, and to be mindful of safety, as the skewers were very sharp.
The boy in the lead patted his chest, full of confidence, "Boss Shi, don't worry, we know what we're doing. We'll be very careful and meticulous when we're cleaning up."
"Yes, the resort provided us with gloves, which was very convenient."
This surprised Shi Yi a bit.
Along her journey as a street vendor, she encountered many kind people, including the owner of Chengkai and the owner of this resort, who all provided her with assistance.
Thinking of Chengkai's boss, I don't think I saw him today.
Didn't they come?

At this moment, Pei Chen, who had just finished a video conference, was leaning wearily against the living room sofa, watching the live stream on his phone.
"Look where I am, everyone! Star View Resort, barbecue, here I come!"
"There were so many people, there was nowhere to put my feet just now, but don't worry, I've already ordered."
"Look, these are the skewers I just ordered. I couldn't resist eating a few before the broadcast started." The anchor smiled sheepishly in front of the camera.
"But don't worry, everyone, there will be grilled fish later. I think I'm number 20, the last one. Lucky me, right?"
