Chapter 104 Only for her
At the entrance of the [You Lai Wan] store, Cheng You, who was wearing a little white dress, fell into a brief daze.
Sometimes, kids’ shocked expressions are really cute and a little... funny?
But her chubby face and big eyes make her look even more adorable.
Children’s thought processes may not be the same as those of adults. Cheng Zhu was not sure whether his sister had guessed that I, her brother, was the owner of this store.
But, obviously her focus is not here now.
Cheng Zhuchong waved to her and asked her to enter the store. She looked around the store and stood on tiptoes from time to time, holding the doll control panel with both hands, and then looked inside to see what the dolls in each machine looked like.
When she sees something nice, she will let out a small "Wow~"
After she had visited every corner of [You Lai Wan], Cheng Zhu squatted down and asked her: "Do you like this store?"
"Yeah! I like it!" Little Youzi nodded vigorously.
Cheng Zhu then raised his right palm with full force, patted his chest, and said, "This store is mine."
Then, he patted his sister's head gently and said, "Of course, it's yours too."
Not to mention, he vaguely saw a look of disbelief in her eyes.
As expected, if I didn’t tell her, she might not know that it was my shop.
"Brother, why is there no one in the store?" She looked around curiously for a while, as if she was worried about the business.
She is worthy of being our princess brought to the hotel. Even at such a young age, she knows how to consider the flow of customers.
"Because this store hasn't officially opened yet, it's almost like... the kindergarten hasn't started yet?"
"Let me entertain you today." Cheng Zhu smiled.
Anyway, he wanted to try to capture it on every machine, so it was a good opportunity for Xiaoyouzi to participate.
What's more, when they were in the taxi just now, Cheng You had already paid, and she gave Cheng Zhu the one-dollar coin she had saved.
So Cheng Zhu looked at her and asked, "Do you want to start grabbing the doll?"
"I want to!" Little Youzi raised his hand immediately.
"Okay, then let me ask you, what do you need to grab the doll?"
"I need it. I know! I know! I need game coins!"
"That's right!" Cheng Zhu patted her on the shoulder and motioned for her to follow him.
In the aisle, Cheng Zhu placed an automatic coin dispenser.
There are two coin-dispensing machines in this [Youlaiwan], one at the front desk and the other in the aisle.
This coin machine in the aisle is for VIP customers with membership cards.
As long as you bring your membership card of [Youlaiwan] and there is a balance on the card, you can swipe the card on the machine to withdraw coins, which is convenient and fast.
But for him, the shop owner, his own card naturally has unlimited coins!
Standing in front of the coin dispenser, Cheng Zhu held his head high, then took out the one-yuan coin that Xiao Youzi gave him from his trouser pocket.
"You just gave your brother a dollar, right?" he said to his sister.
"Yeah!" Little Youzi nodded vigorously.
"Then, brother will return it to you." Cheng Zhu swiped his exclusive BOSS card on the machine and entered the six-digit password. The coin machine began to spit out coins crazily.
Da da da. The speed at which the coins drop is astonishingly fast!
The silver game coins are so bright and dazzling under the light.
The sound of them falling was so pleasant and shocking.
Ten coins, fifty coins, one hundred coins
Cheng Zhu just stood there with his head held high, enjoying the gaze from his sister. He felt that he must be so handsome for pretending to be so cool!
[Youlaiwan] comes with a wicker box for game coins.
Each box can hold about two hundred game coins.
Cheng Zhu filled five boxes for Xiao Youzi in one breath, and then lined them up on the table at the front desk.
For kindergarten children, this is an unparalleled visual shock!
Cheng Zhu remembers going to that kind of game hall when he was a child and seeing the adults’ boxes filled with game coins, he was so envious and admired them.
Many kids don’t have money to play, but they find it very exciting to watch others play arcade games.
Children's happiness is always very simple, but once people grow up, happiness becomes difficult.
Because everyone's threshold of happiness is actually getting higher and higher.
But it doesn't matter.
Little Youzi is very happy now.
Although she already knew that this store was opened by her brother, she still opened her mouth wide when she saw these five full boxes of game coins.
Cheng Zhu looked at her and guessed that she would show off to her classmates when she went to kindergarten next week.
For some reason, Cheng Zhu felt great just by imagining it.
As a habitual pretender, and the recognized king of pretending among his friends in his previous life, this shouldn't be the case.
But, family members are different after all.
It's like when your parents show off their children to others, you might feel more comfortable listening to them than if you pretend to be ten top-notch experts yourself.
"Haha, let's give the kids in Sunshine Kindergarten a little shock with some game coins!" Cheng Zhu's mouth was grinning almost to his ears.
He picked up a box of game coins and handed it to Xiao Youzi.
Cheng You took it with both hands, and almost dropped it.
For children, such a full box of game coins is indeed too heavy.
But she just had a tense face and held it with great effort, unwilling to let go.
"It's okay, we don't have to take it with us."
Cheng Zhu placed a box of game coins on each of the five machines in front of him.
Are you kidding? How can my sister's little hands handle carrying so many game coins?
Fill it up, I will fill it up! Fill it up in front of every machine!
After doing all this, he said to Xiao Youzi: "Wait a moment, I'll get you a special little stool."
This child is too short. He is not tall enough to operate the claw machine independently and needs to stand on a chair.
In fact, both Old Cheng and Xu Yun were of similar height. Cheng Zhu was about 1.80 meters tall, which was definitely considered tall in the south.
Well, Shandong people are forbidden to speak on this matter!
Although Xiaoyouzi is still small, she has good proportions and will become a long-legged beauty in the future.
Cheng Zhu took a small pink stool from the front desk, which he had prepared long ago.
The legs of the stool are very sturdy, not the light, low-quality plastic ones, to prevent my sister from accidentally falling.
He just followed her and watched her catch the doll.
Little Youzi is very sensible. She only picks one of each machine. Even if she likes the style very much, she won't pick a second one.
Because she knew in her heart that these dolls were used by her brother to make money.
I'll just take a small one!
Cheng Zhuze took out his mobile phone and recorded the settings of each machine. He would increase the probability of some machines and lower it for others later.
He will calculate the costs and benefits later and make sure that the final profit meets his expectations.
Of course, in this kind of store that specializes in grabbing dolls, the rate of getting dolls will be higher than that in regular video game arcades.
Also dark-hearted, but not that dark.
"Fortunately, I have colleagues to contrast with me." Cheng Zhu thought to himself.
At this moment, there were two girls outside the store stopping and looking inside.
I don’t know if they didn’t see the notice on the door saying it was closed, or for some other reason, but they walked into the store and asked, “Hello, I want to ask, is this store open?”
Cheng Zhu turned around and glanced at the two of them. The girl who asked the question was actually pretty. Judging from the level of her [Power of Beauty], she was about 1.2 times the beauty of Chen Tingting, the class belle of Computer Science Class 2.
He shook his head and continued to concentrate on playing with his sister. He had answered several people with similar questions before, so he said:
"I'm really sorry, but we won't officially open to the public until Monday. Right now, she's the only one in the entire store who can play."
By 8:40 in the evening, Xiao Youzi already had a bag full of dolls.
This kind of bag is a special bag made in the store. It is a long transparent bag, about 80 cm long, and can be carried on the back.
This type of design is also specially used for taking photos with customers. At that time, the dolls can be put into this transparent bag, and then carried on the back to take photos.
"Does each machine only catch one?" Cheng Zhu asked her.
Little Pomelo nodded, and finally just said: "Brother, I like this pink bunny very much. Can I have another one? Only it can take two, okay?"
"Okay." Cheng Zhu smiled.
Then he closed the rolling door and started adjusting the settings of the machine.
After everything was done, I turned off the electricity, locked the door, and took my sister home.
In the past, when Cheng You brought so many dolls home, she would actually be both excited and nervous.
The reason is simple: she is afraid her mother will say something to her.
But she didn't feel nervous at all today. She was like a victorious general, feeling that she had won a victory in the claw machine store!
This is my brother's shop! He said that I am the only one who can play today! No one is allowed to say anything to me!
When the two got home, it was already half past nine. Comrade Lao Cheng went home quite early today. It seemed that the guests in the restaurant left quickly today.
For Cheng Zhu, it was a good thing that Old Cheng came back so early. After all, today was his showdown day, right?
As soon as the brother and sister entered the house, their parents' attention was immediately attracted by the bag full of stuffed toys.
Xu Yun couldn't help but frowned and said, "You took her to the arcade again? And she caught so many dolls."
The Cheng family is well-known for favoring girls over boys, and they will not be reluctant to spend money on their daughter. It doesn't matter if she gets some stuffed toys, because little girls like dolls, but this is too much!
Moreover, parents all know that video game arcades are open for business, and it will definitely cost more to grab claws from the claw machines than to buy them outside.
Oh my, how much money was wasted!
Xu Yun looked at her daughter and said, "Didn't Mom tell you last time? Mom knows you like the process of catching dolls, and I didn't stop you from catching them, right?"
"Yes." Little Youzi nodded.
"But didn't you make a pinky promise with mom that you can only grab three at most in the arcade from now on? If you want more, we agreed to buy them at the store."
In fact, Xu Yun is doing pretty well. She insists that claw machines are a scam, but she also values her daughter's experience and the joy she gets from catching dolls.
But people can't be happy without restraint.
Children should not be indulged unconditionally.
Little Youzi raised her head and said, "But we didn't go to the arcade."
She looked at her mother and said with great conviction, "My brother said that's not an arcade, that's my castle!"
Upon hearing this, the two people on the sofa looked at each other, and then glared at Cheng Zhu.
Good job, you are trying to deceive children with sweet words again, right?
