A few hours later, a group of people squatted on the sidewalk, looking at the tourists entering and leaving the food store with dejected looks.
Zhao Siqi stared at Tang Qingxi with a look of resentment. Tang Qingxi felt uncomfortable being stared at. "Why are you looking at me? That food ID doesn't show the balance. Who knew money could be so precious?"
"You have an idea of how much money we exchanged in total."
"I didn't count. I bought so many things that I forgot about them a long time ago."
"Then why don't you pay with gold?"
"I was so stunned by the shopkeeper's scolding that I forgot I could pay with gold. Oh! I forgot, and so did you."
"It's been a long time since I've been scolded. I didn't react at all."
"It's getting dark, and where are we going to stay if we don't have any money?"
"What are you afraid of? Just pay in gold. It's not like we won't accept it."
Qian San and Sun Jiaojiao did not express any opinions. Ye Qingyi and Niu Dawu watched Tang Qingxi and Zhao Siqi bickering with a smile.
There are so many delicious foods in the Food City. Even the fruits are much more delicious than those on Blue Star because they contain spiritual energy. Besides, the ingredients in the Food City are all natural, and many of them have never been seen before. Once a group of people start eating, they can't be stopped.
I just bought some milk tea at a milk tea shop, and without noticing, the money on my food ID had been used up. I couldn’t swipe my account, and was kicked out of the shop.
Fortunately, this kind of situation often happens in the food city, so they were not detained and handed over to the police. They were just scolded by the store owner and kicked out of the store.
None of the group had ever eaten a free meal. After being beaten to a pulp by the restaurant, they were kicked out only to remember that they could pay with gold. Now they had to choose one person to go in and pay the boss, but remembering the boss's machine gun-like mouth, no one wanted to go in.
In the end, it was Tang Qingxi who went in to pay. It was her fault for not paying attention when spending money.
The supermarket was not open, so they needed to stay in a hotel at night. Tang Qingxi chose the presidential suite of a hotel, which had several rooms, a conference room, an office, and a special kitchen in the gourmet world, so everyone didn't have to stay apart.
After moving in, everyone gathered in the conference room to discuss what to do next.
Tang Qingxi first asked: "Does anyone come to buy things in our supermarket?"
"Anyway, absolutely no one buys the vegetables and fruits we prepare."
"The supermarket still has clothes, cosmetics, and other daily necessities. I don't believe anyone is buying them."
"But daily necessities can't be sold at a high price. If you mark up the price too high, who would buy them?"
"To achieve 10 million in sales, how many products would it take to sell?"
"If that doesn't work out, we'll just use up all the gold we brought, and that'll be enough for the turnover."
"That's the last resort."
At this time, Qian San said weakly: "Boss, why don't I open a gourmet restaurant? I think the food I make is better than those in these gourmet restaurants."
After hearing what Qian San said, everyone's eyes immediately turned to him.
Tang Qingxi heard this and asked, "What do you mean?"
Qian San braved everyone's gaze and said, "I tasted the food here today, and I feel that the people in this world tend to pursue nature."
"Most ingredients are pan-fried, roasted, deep-fried, boiled, and steamed. These are simple cooking methods, unlike our Chinese cuisine, which uses deep-frying, sautéing, stir-frying, braising, stewing, braising, smoking, and braising... which are extremely diverse and complex."
"Even the seasonings used are very limited, just oil, salt, sauce, and vinegar. I believe my cooking is definitely better than theirs."
"is that so?"
When people eat it, they just feel that it tastes good, and most of the flavors are very light, and there is no other feeling.
Qian San nodded in affirmation.
"Okay, we'll find you a store to open tomorrow. Ideally, one that's ready-made and ready to open for business right away."
