Chapter 83 Another Trip to Vancouver



"Alright! You must be tired from studying. Go and eat some meat to nourish yourself. Here's your number tag. Go find a seat inside. Auntie will call you when you're done."

These days, every family has many children, and they are not precious. Many students are bossed around at home, but when they come to Shujia Roujiamo (a type of Chinese sandwich), they are carefully cared for by the aunties, who ask about their well-being and warm their hearts.

What's more, this roujiamo (Chinese hamburger) looks so tempting. After a long day of classes, I was starving. I finally managed to get a few cents of pocket money, and I wanted to spend it all on food.

"Auntie, I'd like two roujiamo (Chinese hamburgers) and a bowl of iced soy milk!"

"Auntie, I'd like two roujiamo (Chinese hamburgers) and a bowl of mung bean soup!"

"Okay, okay, Auntie heard you all. Little ones, please move inside and find your own seats. We're all classmates, so if there aren't enough seats, just squeeze in!"

Deng Fangping speaks with heartfelt sincerity, using the sword of love to leave the German students bewildered and disoriented.

Deng Fangping is over forty years old this year. The youngest student in the German middle school is only twelve or thirteen years old, about the same age as Yunyun, while the oldest is eighteen or nineteen, much younger than Shulan.

The innocent faces looked up at her and called her "Auntie." Deng Fangping's heart softened at the way she was addressed, and she genuinely treated them like her own children, so she couldn't help but exaggerate a little when she spoke.

So exaggerated that even Xiao Jiang got jealous and started mimicking it, pinching his nose:

"My darling, find a seat inside! My sweetheart, the mung bean soup is a bit hot, be careful when you carry the bowl! You're so thin, it breaks my heart to see you like this, you should eat more to nourish yourself!"

Chu Yu was amused, patted Xiao Jiang on the head, and gave him a dollar.

"Take it, but don't let your mom see it."

Xiao Jiang's eyes narrowed with joy. "Sister, my dear sister, you are much better than Shu Lan. Shu Lan abandoned her brother for a man."

Chu Yu patted his little bottom, "Go on, we don't need your help here for now!"

Xiao Jiang ran away, clutching his butt.

There were many students at noon, so Chu Yu stayed at the shop to help out. The weather was hot, and her cheeks were flushed pink, her lips were red, and she looked exceptionally charming.

When the boys who came to eat saw her, some blushed, some stared in disbelief, and some looked dazed. They all seemed to have never expected that there would be such a beautiful woman with fair skin in such a small roujiamo (Chinese hamburger) shop.

At the age of teens, when girls are just beginning to experience romantic feelings, how many people can escape her charm?

They pretended not to care and buried themselves in their food, but in reality, they were all secretly observing her.

Chu Yu didn't pay much attention to other people's gazes. She helped take numbers and deliver food. After the guests finished eating, she and Chu Xiangyun cleaned up the table together. The dishes at home also needed to be washed. Although Shu Aiguo didn't allow her to do any hard work, Chu Yu still wanted to do what she could.

The shop was packed with people, and there was a long queue outside. They were selling everything at once, and the sound of chopping meat never stopped. Even though Deng Fangping and Shu Hui's business was usually quite good, they felt a bit overwhelmed today.

When they were on the trolley, they used a small cutting board because of the limited space. They could chop three or four portions of meat at a time, and they could chop more, but they couldn't use it to their full potential. After they moved here, Shu Aiguo specially ordered an extra-large cutting board for them, which can chop meat for ten people at a time.

The speed was fast, but my arms kept moving, and they started to ache after a while.

This proves that their business is really good. The students rave about the roujiamo (Chinese hamburger) and inevitably help promote it when they visit schools. Once it becomes a hit, even if they only do business with German middle school students, they can make more money than they can ever want!

Students don't start class until 1:30, but teachers in each class stipulate that students must return to the classroom to study before 12:30. By 12:00, there are hardly any students left in the roujiamo (Chinese hamburger) shop, and passersby finally squeeze in.

Shu Hui and Deng Fangping didn't have time to rest and immediately got back to work.

The two worked until nine o'clock in the evening, when they could finally close up shop and settle accounts. Deng Fangping washed her hands and stared eagerly at the pile of money on the table.

She wanted to know how much the restaurant's revenue would increase after making one more dinner; surely it would be at least sixty?

So many people today...

"After deducting costs, the total profit is 109.3 yuan!" Shu Aiguo announced.

Shu Hui was stunned for a moment, then moved her lips in disbelief:

"109.3 yuan? And that's pure profit? How can there be so much money?"

Deng Fangping also felt that it wasn't that much. It was true that there were many customers, but they only earned two or three cents per customer. They were running a small business, so how could they possibly make that much money?

Chu Yu, however, thought it was quite normal. There were many people who bought houses by selling snacks. In later generations, competition was fierce, and the profit margin for snacks was compressed.

In the early 1980s, there were only a handful of snacks available on the market. They were the first in Deyang to try it out. Earning more than 100 yuan a day, was that a big deal?

Earning over a hundred a day adds up to over three thousand a month. With each person receiving over fifteen hundred, you can become a ten-thousand-yuan household in a year!

Deng Fangping felt that she would never dare to do such a thing, even in her wildest dreams.

Perhaps because Chu Yu earns three or four thousand a day, Chu Xiang actually thinks that a roujiamo shop earning a hundred a day is not much. But this is compared to Chu Yu. Compared to others, Zhou Jian'an, a college student, only earns 56 yuan a month!

Shu Hui can earn more than 50 yuan a day, which is more than what a factory worker earns in a month. With this stable income, the three sisters no longer have to live with their heads down.

Chu Yu told Dai Donglin about her trip to Wenzhou. Dai Donglin originally wanted to take her there, but he had some things to take care of in Deyang.

He was worried about leaving Chu Yu alone, so he bought her a sleeper berth to Wenzhou.

You can't buy a sleeper berth without connections; Chu Yu suffered a lot when she went to Wenzhou last time.

She didn't refuse, and gave him a soft smile as she held the ticket: "Thank you, boyfriend!"

Dai Donglin was very receptive to her charms. He opened his arms to her, and Chu Yu walked into his arms with her hands behind her back, where she was tightly embraced by Dai Donglin.
