Senran released the robot he had bought to help shape the cake base and beat the eggs, while Lin Yiran put the raw materials into the cold storage at the back and began teaching them how to make the cake base.
There will be more people trying the food on the first day of opening, so they need to make more.
It is estimated that 100,000 cakes will be needed.
Seeing that they were very busy, Senran also helped out, as did the two robots, who were constantly beating eggs and baking bread, keeping their feet on the ground.
Finally, at 3 a.m., 100,000 cakes were completed. They came in various sizes, from large ones like 4-inch and 6-inch birthday cakes – we didn't make them too big to avoid them being too much to eat; these sizes were just right. The smaller cakes were served in custom-made paper bowls, about the size of a palm, with a spoon for easy eating by children.
There are more than ten flavors, but we haven't made too many yet. We'll gradually introduce new products later. However, we still have the ones that Lin made in the Chef Competition, since these are the main desserts that attract people. Otherwise, people would say that they are making false advertising.
The desserts can be eaten in or taken away. The store is decorated similarly to KFC, with two floors, plenty of seats, and exquisite decor. They even bought two special delivery robots outside.
Seeing that it was still early and Lin Yiran wasn't sleepy at all, she simply worked overtime to make a few more drinks, including green grape lemon tea, bayberry lychee tea, and green grape jasmine tea. Unfortunately, she didn't have enough ingredients, so the variety she could make was limited.
The quantity is also limited, around a thousand cups.
After finishing all that, she got sleepy and simply lay down on the outdoor dining table to rest for a while.
I was woken up by noises outside after only a short time. I looked at the time on my computer: 4:30 a.m. Why was it so noisy?
Lin Yiran straightened up and looked out the glass window. Suddenly, something fell off her. She looked down and saw Senran's coat.
The restaurant had constant air conditioning, so there was no need to cover her with a coat.
Without thinking much about it, Lin Yiran looked outside.
Suddenly, a face appeared on the glass window, startling Lin Yiran.
"Boss? When do you open? We're all waiting to buy a cake!"
What?
Now?
Lin Yiran simply walked to the door and took a look. Sure enough, she saw that there was already a long queue at the door. Senran was still directing two robots to bring chairs to the customers so that they could sit down and wait.
How thoughtful! This was something Lin Yiran hadn't expected.
The main reason was that she never expected anyone would get up in the middle of the night to sell cakes.
The sun rises in interstellar space at 6:00 AM, and it doesn't get fully bright until 6:30 AM, at which point people get up. She really couldn't imagine why they would get up so early.
"Yes, boss, boss, please open the door quickly! We've been waiting for our cake for ages!"
"Your shop opens too slowly. We've come almost every day, but we've never seen it open. Now that we've finally waited this long, can you at least let us in?"
The customers are still urging us.
Senran had anticipated this and handled everything very well.
Outside the shop, there are not only sunshades and benches, but also a large TV playing the hottest movie in the galaxy, "The Domineering Star Prince Falls in Love with Me," starring Lin Zaifei, with an old-fashioned and melodramatic plot.
But it is very popular.
Lin Yiran was speechless. Just looking at Lin Zaifei's face was enough to keep viewers engaged. There's a reason why this drama is so popular.
The shop was originally scheduled to open at 8:00 AM, but Lin Yiran moved it an hour earlier, tentatively opening at 7:00 AM. However, before 6:00 AM, the outside was already packed with people, severely obstructing traffic.
Fortunately, they didn't come to cause her any trouble.
Senran took the initiative to build good relationships with several surrounding shops, so that customers could queue up along the street without significantly affecting traffic.
Knowing that Lin Yiran wouldn't open the door early, the customers simply sat and waited.
At this moment, Senran came in and said, "Judging from the situation, I think you probably didn't make enough cakes. Do you have any more ingredients?"
Lin Yiran took a sip of freshly squeezed watermelon juice. "We do have some, but everyone's tired, so we're not making any for now. Besides, we don't have much raw material left; it'll only last until the morning after tomorrow."
"However, my supplier told me that the food storage container will arrive around tomorrow afternoon, so there won't be a supply shortage. But with just the number of us, it's unlikely we can make more; it's too tiring." She didn't plan to continue.
What we can't have is the rarest.
She will limit the quantity to retain old customers.
Just like some good restaurants that don't offer much food, this is actually using the customer's desire for something they can't have to encourage them to make repeat purchases.
Senran: "Should we hire two more chefs? Or buy the shop next door and expand the business a bit?"
Upon hearing this, Lin Yiran almost spat out her watermelon juice. The main problem was that Sen Ran's words were too casual, as if the land next door belonged to him. The shop was still open; how could he just buy it like that?
Lin Yiran: "That can't be right. They wouldn't want to sell anyway. Besides, once my little shop gets busy, their shops will also benefit, and they'll be even less willing to sell then. Forget it, I'm planning to limit purchases and open a branch."
"Each customer can only purchase ten small cakes and one drink during the first ten days of opening, because I feel that there will be a lot of customers during these days, which will be a peak period,"
"Once the novelty wears off for customers, there won't be any need for purchase limits."
To be honest, Senran felt that Lin Yiran's thinking was a bit too simplistic.
He had tasted Lin Yiran's small cakes. To say they wouldn't sell well was impossible. To say that the number of customers would decrease after the opening period was also impossible. She had underestimated the madness of the people in the First Star System.
They also love to eat cakes; men, women, young and old all love them. Anyone with a little capital can find out by doing some research that the food Lin Yiran makes does not contain any violent energy.
Then...
The situation could spiral out of control.
So he believed that Lin Yiran's cake shop would be crushed by the crowds.
Fortunately, he's still here, and he'll solve these potential problems one by one.
Thinking of this, he immediately opened his Star Brain and sent a text message to his butler, Uncle Fu, saying that he would pay a high price to clear out the people from the three shops next door, and then put up signs saying "transfer at the lowest price".
He didn't believe Lin Yiran wouldn't be tempted after seeing it.
As for when she will see it, that's unknown. He needs to remind her of that, since he has now been appointed as the 'manager' of the True Flavor Cream Shop.
He earns a monthly salary of 100,000 Star Coins.
That's not the point. The point is to stay by Lin Yiran's side and help her with her career. That's the most important thing.
Moreover, this kind of food that doesn't contain violent energy should be promoted and celebrated.
He's essentially doing a good job for the people of the interstellar world.
