Xia Yu knew this when he was in elementary school. At that time, if he didn't do his homework, he could just tell the teacher that he forgot. But if a poor student didn't do his homework, his parents would be called to the school before the class was finished.
In the eyes of the school, an outstanding alumnus is always more important than an obedient and sensible student.
After exiting the taskbar and returning to the homepage, Xia Yu clicked on the sign-in button.
"Ding, your card with the last number 0607 received a 300,000 yuan payment from ICBC at 12:48 on August 19th, with a balance of 337,474.58 yuan. [ICBC]"
Three hundred thousand yuan arrived instantly, filling up the account that had become empty after paying the house price.
A poor man has low aspirations, and this is all the liquid funds he has left.
The 500,000 yuan his mother gave him and the 500,000 yuan taken out of Xia Ji's profits were placed by Xia Yu on another card. This money was used to buy funds and could not be touched. The remaining profits had to be used as working capital for the restaurant and could not be touched either.
All Xia Yu can count on now is the daily sign-in salary of 300,000 yuan.
According to estimation, it will take about 21 days of signing in to make up for the gap in level 11.
There is no way out by saving money. Only by upgrading can you become stronger. As for how to upgrade, of course it is by spending money.
Daily expenses are one part, and the other part can also be used for initial investment, such as acquiring a piece of land first.
As for the area, it should be around one thousand acres, with mountains, water and forests. He prefers the location to be near the Magic City, not limited to Fudong.
He still needs to consider the specific location, so there is no rush now.
After logging out of the system, Xia Yu returned to his room and took a nap. At two o'clock in the afternoon, he called He Jiawen.
"Lao He, are you free tonight? I'll treat you to a midnight snack."
Xia Yu made an appointment.
He had made a dinner appointment with Yin Suya before, but because she is now in her hometown in Zhejiang Province, the time was set after school starts. Now he can only ask Lao He to go together.
As for why Jiang Baiying was not chosen, it was because she had a small appetite and was not very relaxed in front of the camera in private, unlike a seasoned artist like He Jiawen, who was very effective in the show.
Although you can enjoy the food alone when shooting a video, it is more like a stand-up comedy, unlike two people who can sing a duet together.
"Sure, I'm worried about where to have dinner, so I'll just have a simple meal at home."
Eat a simple dinner, eat more for a midnight snack, and stick to your plan.
"But Lao Xia, where are we going to eat tonight?"
"I'll cook for you. Just come to my shop at 9:30."
Xia Yu replied that eating out is called exploring a restaurant, while cooking at home is called living. He likes to record his life through food.
"Okay then, see you tonight!"
After hanging up the phone, Xia Yu changed his clothes, put on his camera bag, walked to the parking lot, and then drove to Xia Ji.
The kitchen is still busy even though it is not yet dinner time. Tan Shiye is asking people to prepare ingredients, and many dishes need to be made in advance.
After a walk around, Xia Yu hid in the office upstairs. Today was another day without Secretary Jiang, but fortunately there would be delicious food to accompany him in the evening.
Towards evening, Xia Yu's cell phone suddenly rang. It was the number he had called yesterday.
"Boss Xia, I just arrived downstairs, and everything is fresh!"
"I'll be right down."
After going downstairs to sign for the goods, Xia Yu carried a large foam box to the back kitchen.
When I opened it, I saw twelve lobsters inside, soaked in sea water, all of them alive and kicking.
"Boss, did you buy lobster?"
Seeing the lobsters in the foam box, Tan Shiye asked curiously.
Xia Ji offers some seafood, but does not include lobster dishes. However, his lobster cooking skills are first-class. The stir-fried lobster with three green onions that he had previously served at Tang Pavilion was his signature dish, and Xia Yu had ordered it specifically.
"Well, I haven't eaten for a long time. I feel like eating."
Xia Yu nodded and replied.
"Then let me process it?"
Master Tan asked.
Last time, Xia Yu bought a king crab and asked him to make Typhoon Shelter Fried Crab.
The taste is really good, even better than Xia Yu’s, he is indeed a professional.
"Master Tan, I won't bother you this time. I want to try a different way of eating it. I plan to try it for a midnight snack tonight."
Xia Yuwan declined Tan Shiye's suggestion. After all, his way of eating this time was a bit special.
"Okay, boss, I'll get busy first."
Since there was no need, Tan Shiye did not insist. He said something to Xia Yu and went back to work.
As night fell, the tables were filled with diners one by one, and Xia Ji began to get busy. However, because the team had worked well together before, everything was so orderly.
Xia Ji's business is becoming stable. Starting from next month, Xia Yu will be able to take away about 2.5 million yuan in profits from the store every month.
He did not plan to save the money to buy funds, but to spend it all in the name of the company and invest it in new projects in installments.
It would be more beneficial for Xia Yu to upgrade earlier, so there is no need to worry about the profit of more than ten percent.
The lobsters were kept in the kitchen, and Xia Yu simply ate a few bites of the staff meal in the evening. It was not until nine o'clock in the evening that the tables were no longer open, and the bustling Xia Ji gradually quieted down.
The restaurant officially closes at 9:30, but at this time it welcomed its last customer.
"Old Xia, here I come!"
He Jiawen walked in holding a box of Blue Island Fortune Drinks.
In the summer, beer is a natural midnight snack, but He Jiawen prefers domestic brands, especially the perfectly iced Lando.
"I forgot to ask you on the phone this morning. What are we having for dinner tonight?"
Putting the wine on the counter, He Jiawen asked directly.
"How about spicy 'small' crayfish?"
"This is good, but are you good enough? I know several places that serve delicious lobsters. How about we go somewhere else?"
Hearing Xia Yu say that they wanted to eat Ma Xiao tonight, He Jiawen suggested that the night snack stalls make this stuff better after all.
"What, you don't like my craftsmanship?"
Xia Yu said in a bad tone, and He Jiawen instinctively felt that something was wrong.
"No, I was just joking, hahaha."
He Jiawen used laughter to cover up his embarrassment and his flexibility allowed him to escape danger.
"That's good. Today I will let you know what real technology is."
For this meal, Xia Yu specially used a blank Buff Day Card and activated his cooking skills. This was the basis of his arrogance.
Delicious +3 spicy "little" lobster, this is not something that ordinary people can eat.
After following Xia Yu to the kitchen, He Jiawen realized that something was wrong.
"Old Xia, aren't you an Australian dragon?"
He Jiawen has eaten a lot of lobsters and recognized today's ingredients at a glance. It is also the most expensive lobster on the market.
There are two types of lobsters commonly seen at banquets, Australian lobster and Boston lobster. As real lobsters without claws, Australian lobsters taste better and are more expensive.
But they have nothing to do with spicy crayfish!
"Yeah, this has a lot of meat, it would be great for making spicy crayfish."
