Chapter 82 Chapter 82 Spending Money Day 82
After much thought, Liu Yue felt that Pei Fang wanted to use half of his adoptive parents' inheritance to show his favor to her.
Although she was already very rich, who would complain about having too much money? Pei Fang probably thought that there was no need to push away this kind of free money that was delivered to her door.
Li Jiamin's mentality is easy to understand. Since Liu Hui doesn't allow her to share the common property of the couple, she might as well listen to Pei Fang. This way, she can get benefits from him and show her favor to Liu Yue.
If Liu Yue was not the system host, and did not have the task of spending money as soon as she opened her eyes, she might really be tempted.
But she was, so Pei Fang couldn't use this trick to please her.
Liu Yue didn't take this matter to heart. If she didn't give any feedback, Pei Fang would naturally be too lazy to continue to care about the Liu family's affairs after hitting a wall.
After moving into the new house, Liu Yue's life was very ordinary.
The main reason was that since May, the system had not asked her to look for new fragments, and she had not drawn any large daily tasks, so there was nothing new worth mentioning.
Alas, no wonder the protagonists' lives in TV dramas are always full of ups and downs. If there were no conflicts that needed to be resolved, life would be as peaceful as water.
Liu Yue thought that her material desires had decreased and that the happiness that money could bring her was becoming less, but when she thought about it carefully, she realized that this seemingly ordinary life was also burning money rapidly every day.
If she were to go out to work for a few days and experience the morning and evening rush hour commuting, then the joy of being able to lie flat in a mansion would immediately explode.
Of course, Liu Yue didn't intend to endure the hardship and really find a class for herself to attend, but she also wanted to start a business.
When they first learned that she had this idea, everyone around her was very nervous.
——Three generations of eating, drinking and having fun have squandered the family fortune, and three years of investment and entrepreneurship have led to bankruptcy. You usually live a good life, but don’t be too depressed!
When everyone found out that Liu Yue's so-called business plan was to set up a small stall at the night market, they all breathed a sigh of relief.
It turned out to be just the eldest lady's game of playing house. If you had told them earlier, they would have been scared to death.
Liu Yue wanted to set up a stall, so everyone naturally gave her suggestions.
First, the location of the stall, and then the scope of business. Sang Yu looked up information and recommended several places that were safe, had good sanitary conditions, and had a large customer flow.
Of course, you have to pay stall management fees when setting up stalls in these places.
A newbie may not even be able to earn back the money after a busy day, let alone the purchase cost, but isn’t this for the sake of making Liu Yue happy?
Liu Yue doesn't need to worry about these things, Sang Yu will take care of them.
What she needs to consider now is what to sell at the stall.
Liu Yue: "Selling food! I used to go to the night market just to buy food. I couldn't walk anymore when I saw all the snacks."
Liu Yue specified the business scope, and the rest of the matters would be discussed based on her ideas.
As for what kind of food they sell... Liu Yue was originally going to have a meeting with them, but Lucas came over and tugged at the corner of her clothes, wanting Liu Yue to play with him.
Who could resist such a cute cat? Liu Yue was attracted by Lucas, leaving the assistants looking at each other in bewilderment.
This scene is very similar to an emperor who was once diligent in government affairs, but his pet cat distracted him and he never attended court again...
Well, everyone is actually used to it.
Sang Yu continued to preside over the meeting and also called Zhu Xiang over. As the representative of the chef team, she could offer professional advice and was also familiar with the skills of the younger sisters.
Zhu Xiang: "When it comes to night market stalls, the most attractive things are barbecue and fried skewers. They are incredibly fragrant. I even developed a secret recipe for barbecue powder that guarantees they'll turn out incredibly delicious."
"But these two types of stalls require very high cooking skills."
Sang Yu shook her head: "Liu Yue won't be able to learn it in a short time. Besides, if you ask her to lay the foundation and learn from scratch, she will find setting up a stall boring."
Ren Zhen also doesn't quite agree. The thick smoke from barbecue is very pungent, and it's easy to burn your hands when frying skewers. It's better to choose a safer way of setting up a stall.
Even though they have professional chefs and Liu Yue doesn't need to do it herself, she wants to set up a stall just to do it herself.
However, the specific content of this "action" needs to be carefully considered.
It can't be too difficult, otherwise Liu Yue will be unhappy if she can't do it well; it can't be too easy, otherwise she will find it boring after playing for a while if there is no technical content.
At the same time, they had to control the stall so that it wasn't too popular, as it would tire Liu Yue out if it was too busy. It also couldn't be too quiet, as it would make Liu Yue feel frustrated if no one came to the stall the entire time.
The few of them kept discussing and eliminated most of the popular items in the night market.
When Liu Yue returned with Lucas in her arms, she heard that they had come to a conclusion from their discussion - replicating the hamburger restaurant in the business simulation game might be a good idea.
"That's great!" Liu Yue's eyes lit up when she heard it. "I've been thinking about learning how to make hamburgers before, so this is a good time to learn it."
Making hamburgers is of course very simple. She just needs others to prepare all the raw materials and then stack them up layer by layer.
This is the most basic mode. If she wants to make it more difficult for herself, she can help process the ingredients. If she thinks this is fun enough, then she can also be responsible for stacking burgers.
After all, the raw materials are here, so even if the presentation is a little worse, I believe the customers can understand. The burgers in fast food restaurants also have differences between the reference pictures and the actual ones.
The team has considered this for a long time and has good intentions.
In order to set up the stall, Liu Yue took her assistant team to get health certificates, but the chefs didn't need them because they already had them.
Although the stall is only open for a few hours, the chefs have been busy for several days.
The focus today is not on selling hamburgers, but on replicating the management game that Liu Yue loves to play, so the complete illustrated book must be provided for her.
When Liu Yue arrived at the stall, she found that her makeshift hamburger shop was quite eye-catching in the night market.
This was inevitable because her stall was several times larger than the surrounding ones. It was particularly long and was made up of many tables.
At the front is the checkout and ordering area, which is also the finished product delivery area; going to the right are the hamburger meat production area, hamburger assembly area and juice production area.
Okay, it looks pretty decent.
The stall is not officially open yet, but the tablecloths have been put up. Liu Yue feels that the lighting here is particularly bright and the atmosphere is particularly good.
Of course, my colleagues knew what was going on - she had a lot of lights standing there, and they looked quite high-end. She was really willing to invest in them.
Therefore, even though this stall looks quite decent, the colleagues around are not worried that Liu Yue will steal their business.
This is clearly a young person out for fun, not a long-term business plan. She set up a stall today on a whim, and when she returns tonight to calculate the costs and realize how much she's lost, she probably won't want to come back again.
I just wonder if she can sell those lamps and tables to them at a lower price?
Anyone who could set up a stall in this area had already honed their knowledge and discernment. Aside from not knowing Liu Yue was wealthy, they could guess most of the other details. After all, there were so many young people like her who impulsively set up stalls.
Therefore, Liu Yue did not encounter the competition she had imagined, and the people around her were quite friendly.
Someone asked her if she needed help, but Liu Yue politely declined, saying they could handle this matter themselves.
The hamburger meat has been marinated in advance and is made from different parts of beef, chicken, pork, and cod fillets. Once the customer places an order, it is coated with flour and fried in oil. This part is in charge of Zhu Xiang.
There is also a frying pan here, which is specially used for frying eggs, bacon and other side dishes. Ren Zhen has bought a lot of molds, and customers can choose different egg shapes when placing orders.
Even the degree of doneness can be selected, and this part is handled by Zhu Yan. Whether you want a sunny-side-up egg or a soft-boiled egg, she can satisfy you.
The assembly table is the area that Liu Yue is responsible for. Since they said they wanted to replicate the entire atlas, the team helped her do it very attentively.
There are over a dozen burger crust options, all of which Zhu Tang personally makes, starting with the dough. Side dishes like tomatoes are also prepared to order, with Zhu Xian cutting and preparing them right on the spot.
The kitchen is open and the food is freshly prepared. Every corner of the stall is very clean. It is no exaggeration to say that the hygiene standards of her stall are higher than those of many big restaurants.
After all, even the juice area next to it has fresh fruit cut to order, just like what Liu Yue drinks at home.
As soon as the stall opened, it attracted passers-by to stop by because of its excellent location and conspicuous signboard.
Liu Yue ran to the ordering area - because nowadays, mobile payment is used, and she will definitely wear gloves when stacking burgers, so there is no need to worry about it being unhygienic to stack burgers after collecting the money.
"Welcome, what would you like to eat?"
Don’t mention it, don’t mention it, Liu Yue said this line so smoothly, and the memories of working at KFC came to mind again.
The customer looked at the menu in front of him, which seemed to be a fixed tablet.
The initial page is arranged in left and right, with "Package Recommendations" on the left and "Free Combinations" on the right.
“So you order food on a tablet…”
This way of ordering is not uncommon in restaurants, but it seems to be the first time I have seen it in a night market.
The customer first ordered the recommended set meal on the left and found that it contained a triple beef burger with three different cheeses, which is Liu Yue’s favorite combination.
The hamburger is a fixed item, and you can choose any juice you want. The set meal costs 36.6 yuan.
Considering the average customer spending at the night market, it seems a bit expensive.
The customer then asked, "Is this the only set menu? I don't like cheese."
Liu Yue enthusiastically recommended: "Then you can exit and choose your own combination. We have a lot of matching options here!"
There are indeed a lot of them, so many that customers are a little dazzled and don’t know how to choose.
Fortunately, each option has a picture reference and the raw materials are marked, otherwise customers would not know what these dozen or so hamburger buns are made of.
After choosing the hamburger bun, the side dish page is even more dazzling.
Lots of meat, lots of vegetables, and lots of sauces... But the good thing is that there is a price tag under each option, and it is indeed clearly marked, so you don’t have to worry about encountering burger assassins.
The customer asked: "Are these all optional? What is the maximum number of choices?"
"Yeah, pick whatever you want." Liu Yue said, "You can only choose six at most. If there are too many, I'm afraid I won't be able to cover them and they will fall apart."
The customer suddenly had an idea: "Is it okay if I choose six sauces?"
Liu Yue: ...
Liu Yue could only say, "If you insist on being so abstract, I have no objection. I'll do whatever you ask."
The customer really wanted to try this, but when she looked to the right, the sizzling frying pan aroused her appetite, so she decided to just eat a burger properly.
She chose chicken fillet coated with chili powder, and hesitated for a while about the other side dishes before placing the order.
In fact, there is a juice selection page in the middle, but this can be skipped, so she didn't click it.
"Boss, you've made this too complicated. Other customers may not be as patient as I am."
After paying the bill, the customer chatted with Liu Yue, "You can make a few more set meals. Otherwise, when people see that they have to choose so many things, even the coating, they may lose interest in eating."
"It's okay." Liu Yue said nonchalantly, "I think it's more fun this way. If you find it troublesome, then don't eat it."
Moreover, the food serving efficiency of her stall is not high.
It takes a while for the hamburger meat to be fried fresh, and Liu Yue lays out the burger buns. She assembles the burgers strictly according to the order of the customer, waiting for the chicken fillet to be cooked before piling the side dishes on top.
It doesn’t matter whether the customers care or not, Liu Yue cares. This is the sense of ritual of moving the business game into reality.
Well, since the stall owner is just out for fun, what else can the customer say? Just wait.
Her prediction was correct. The next few customers who passed by were turned away by the complicated ordering page.
After all, in the public's impression, hamburgers are fast food, so why bother? After worrying about it so much, I don't really want to eat it.
Liu Yue was not in a hurry at all. While waiting for the hamburger meat, she even made a glass of juice.
The customer didn't order anything, but Liu Yue gave her a glass of watermelon juice because she was the first customer to place an order, which made Liu Yue very happy.
The watermelon juice was especially delicious, and the customer watched them make it. They cut the watermelon right in front of her, put it through the blender, and even though they didn't add sugar, it still tasted incredibly sweet.
"This watermelon is so good!" the customer exclaimed. "I just looked at your juice page, and it's only $6.60. I was afraid the watermelon you selected might not be good and you might add sugar, so I didn't order it."
At this point, the guests wanted to pay Liu Yue the 6.6 yuan, but Liu Yue said it was not necessary.
"I'll give it to you if I say so," she said. "We women always keep our word. This watermelon isn't as expensive as you think."
Wow, what a domineering feminism!
However, the guests could also imagine that when Liu Yue said it was not expensive, she really only counted the cost of the watermelon. It turned out that they came here to have fun.
The hamburger meat was finally fried. Zhu Xiang picked it up, let it sit on the frying pan for a while, and then placed it on the prepared hamburger bun.
The next step was to stack the side dishes. Liu Yue put on gloves and stacked them layer by layer.
The lettuce is a complete piece, no different from the one in the reference picture. The mushrooms are also freshly fried and smell very fragrant. Spread them evenly and squeeze some salad dressing on them...
The Spicy Chicken and Mushroom Burger (temporary name) is ready! Liu Yue breathed a sigh of relief, wrapped the burger in wax paper, and placed it in a custom-made paper box.
This paper box has a special design with her Q-version image on it, and it is a limited edition for chefs!
After waiting for a long time, the customer finally got to eat his hamburger.
Even though there was a layer of wax paper between them, she could feel the extraordinary softness and toughness of the hamburger bun the moment she touched it.
She couldn't wait to take a bite. The fresh crust had a familiar wheat aroma, and the lettuce was very crisp, as if it had just been pulled out of the ground.
This kind of mushroom is definitely not the kind you can buy in ordinary supermarkets. The fried chicken fillet is full of juice, and its original taste is not even covered by the seasoning.
“It’s delicious.”
The customer, devouring his food, said, "Boss, you're only selling this burger for 28 yuan. Are you doing this for charity?"
Liu Yue smiled and said, "It's not that exaggerated. Someone has calculated the cost for me."
Seeing how much she enjoyed the food, Liu Yue felt happy. This kind of praise came from the heart, and people recognized her as a cooking god!
——Although the deliciousness of the burgers has nothing to do with her, and is all thanks to the hard work of the chef team and Sang Yu and others, she is the stall owner after all, and she is the one who gets praised.
Because this customer ate so deliciously, even though Liu Yue's ordering method was very complicated, it still attracted a group of diners who were not afraid of trouble.
Some people also like this mode very much, and think that this is the way to choose when eating a hamburger; there are also simulation business enthusiasts who even asked Liu Yue if she could play a few rounds and she would pay extra money.
Liu Yue: ...
What does it mean? Working for her even if you have to pay her? Even capitalists would cry if they heard that.
She had made several hamburgers in a row and was a little tired of it, but when she heard someone ask her about wanting to take her place, she suddenly felt that this job was quite interesting.
Wearing a mask, she said, "No, I have a health certificate, do you have one?"
As for the health certificate, most people would not think of taking the test, except for those working in the catering and housekeeping industries.
The questioner had to leave with regret and had to queue up to order.
The food serving efficiency here is really low, but because everything is freshly made, all the customers who have eaten there say it is delicious, so everyone shows enough patience in front of the real food.
Although Liu Yue's speed and skills in stacking burgers need to be improved...but she is the boss, and she will close the stall if she is unhappy, so everyone coaxes her.
Who says this place is so delicious and cheap? Since I'm here, I might as well indulge myself.
The cheap here does not simply mean cheap price, but cheap in comparison with the quality of ingredients and price.
Most of them are not gourmets, but the burgers here are a dimensionality reduction blow to fast food chains, and anyone with a normal tongue can tell the difference.
Someone asked Liu Yue, will you come to the stall tomorrow?
Everyone was waiting for her answer with anticipation and nervousness. Liu Yue thought about it and said it depended on her mood.
What a willful stall owner! How can you be so irresponsible to your customers? You can’t do this even if you have money!
Everyone was complaining in their hearts, but they kept praising her in various ways. They kept praising her, and they almost coaxed her into becoming an embryo.
Liu Yue said to the system: "You see, I still have a talent for business."
Look at this scene, even customers are begging her to come out and make money, she almost thought she was the protagonist of a food article.
system:……
System: "As long as the host is happy."
At the night market, as soon as someone starts queuing, more and more people will line up.
Sang Yu promptly took out a small blackboard and wrote on it "Expected waiting time: 30 minutes", successfully dissuading the people who came to watch the fun.
But because customers who have eaten the burgers will come back to buy them, or call their friends over, and some people are very curious and want to buy more, there is still a lot of people crowding in front of the stall.
Not only did Liu Yue not agree to continue setting up the stall tomorrow, but she felt a lot of pressure because there were too many customers.
In the business game, she only received six or seven customers a day. No one told her that in reality, customers would crowd in front of the stall!
It was said that setting up a stall at a night market is difficult, so how come it is so easy for her to attract customers here?
If her colleagues heard this, they would tell her that with the ingredients and chef's configuration, it would be strange if no customers came.
For those who have money and are willing to invest, it is easy to do anything they want.
Sang Yu asked her if she wanted to take a break. Liu Yue thought about it and shook her head.
Anyway, they don’t have much stock today, so it should be sold out soon... Everyone is out setting up stalls, persistence is victory!
As the inventory on the menu dwindled rapidly, Liu Yue's work of stacking burgers finally came to an end.
She cheered, "Oh yeah, all the hamburger patties are sold out, time to close the stall!"
The customers who successfully bought the remaining stock were delighted, while those who came late looked frustrated.
"Boss, will you come tomorrow?"
"I'm not coming." Liu Yue said decisively, "Making money is really too hard. My hands are sore and my eyes are a little blurry."
After all, carefully checking the order is not an easy task.
Liu Yue didn't have to worry about closing up the stall; her team packed up the remaining side dishes, neatly folded the tablecloths, and folded the tables. Sang Yu also hired a cleaner to help them clean up after the event.
This is very polite. After they set up their stalls and left, the area was even cleaner than before.
As long as it is something that can be solved with money, the people around Liu Yue will do their best to do it, and will not let any small thing ruin her good mood of coming out to experience the stall setting up today.
Liu Yue had originally thought that if the stall closed early or there were not many customers, she would walk around the night market and look at other fun things to do, but she was so tired at the moment that she adjusted the seat and lay down as soon as she got in the car.
She took out her cell phone and crossed out setting up a stall from the list of life experiences in her memo.
Although it is very tiring, it is still interesting to experience it once in a while.
If she wants to play again next time, it probably won’t be a hamburger restaurant. Sushi restaurants, pasta restaurants, hot dog restaurants, donut shops, etc. are all good choices.
She is a genius as she can play the stall game and make money at the same time!
…Well, if the business income is directly regarded as profit, then she has made money.
If you want to calculate the cost... ahem, just ignore this little thing, it's not important at all, don't affect Liu Yue's mood.
Liu Yue yawned, and Sang Yu put on an eye mask for her and asked her to rest in the car for a while.
The car was very quiet, with only the soothing music playing. Sang Yu and Ren Zhen communicated with each other through lip movements and gestures, and the sound of their keyboards on their phones was also quiet, without any sound that could be heard by anyone.
Zhang Cheng planned his route based on the navigation and traffic light conditions, rarely braking along the way. The Cullinan drove smoothly to the garage and then took the onboard elevator directly home.
After experiencing the bustling world, Liu Yue returned to her penthouse.
When she opened her eyes, her nanny was waiting at the garage door, and the indoor elevator was waiting on the first floor.
Aunt Cai had already prepared for the bath and hair washing. Liu Yue lay on the beauty bed, relaxing her mind.
The newly laid carpet is very soft, and it feels like clouds when you step on it; her big bed is warm and comfortable, and the soft and skin-friendly fabric is like a gentle embrace.
It's so comfortable... She was even a little reluctant to fall asleep. It's nice to lie down like this, how about playing with the phone for a while?
However, the smart mattress has been adjusted to a curvature that makes it easier for her to fall asleep based on her usage habits.
Driven by sleepiness, Liu Yue, who was carefree every day and had no insomnia pressure, fell asleep quickly.
