Chapter 58 - Chapter 58 - 58 Parents Arrive (2/2)
Tuan Tuan talked as if he was listing all of Chen Yu’s misdeeds!
Li Lan stopped eating and was ready to go downstairs right away.
Chen Guang hurriedly stopped her, “It’s okay, it’s busy downstairs right now, let’s ask him again after he’s finished with the evening rush.”
Li Lan didn’t say anything else, and simply picked up her chopsticks to take another bite of noodles.
“I really didn’t expect the kid to have this trick up his sleeve!”
Tuan Tuan recounted some more details about Chen Yu and Tong Ya, then dashed downstairs.
By now it was past two o’clock, and the crowd had slowly thinned out.
Tong Ya also found a lull and sat at an empty table to rest.
But her breathing seemed a bit rushed.
After all, the encounter upstairs was almost like meeting the parents, yet she was wearing an apron, not to mention her hair was a bit messy, and she looked a bit dirty all over.
She feared that she had already made a poor first impression on Chen Yu’s parents.
“Miss Tong Ya!” Tuan Tuan suddenly shouted, rushing over to her side with great enthusiasm.
“Grandpa and Grandma really like you!”
Tong Ya’s eyes widened, the dark cloud lingering in her mind dissipated a bit.
“How do you know?”
Tuan Tuan giggled, “I just told them about you and dad, and they decided to have a good talk with him tonight.”
Tong Ya immediately became excited; she had thought that Chen Yu’s parents would disdain her because of her appearance.
Now, hearing Tuan Tuan’s words, she was suddenly at ease.
“You’d better not be lying to me.”
“Don’t worry! Miss Tong Ya, it won’t be long before I call you mom!”
With that, Tuan Tuan stretched out her little hand and high-fived Tong Ya.
“What are you two chatting about? You seem so happy.” Chen Yu came over with a bowl of noodles for Tong Ya: “You’ve been busy all morning, eat something to fill up first.”
Tong Ya didn’t speak and just started eating from the bowl.
Before the braised dishes were added, there used to be time for a lunch break at midday.
But now, time was a bit tight, and sometimes they couldn’t even have lunch.
So, whenever there was a break, Chen Yu would try to arrange a meal for the employees.
Since there was no lunch break, they should at least have a full meal.
By eight o’clock in the evening, after the braised dishes had sold out, the customer flow in the store had gradually decreased.
The store had been closing around this time for the past two days.
By eight-thirty, after arranging for the employees to have their meal and moving the ordered pork and flour into the cold storage,
Chen Yu called the six girls to head back to their dormitory.
[Congratulations Host, you have perfectly completed a day of business, with a net profit today of 184,200 yuan, earning 184,200 points. Your current total accumulated points are 1,035,880.]
Chen Yu felt an inexplicable excitement in his heart; his points had finally exceeded one million.
However, he was not in a hurry to draw a lottery.
The store was now stable and should progress in an orderly manner.
Adding one new braised dish recently had already kept him more than busy.
So, it was better to observe for a while.
He had just ordered ten thousand pounds of flour and two thousand pounds of pork.
Considering the current daily consumption of pasta and flatbreads, which was four thousand pounds of flour, it would just last until the day after tomorrow.
By then, the semi-finished products like the fried cakes and vegetable pastries would also be sold out, and he could place a unified order for raw materials.
But the meat used for braising still needed to be purchased on the same day.
After calculating briefly in his mind, he transferred sixteen thousand yuan into his savings account.
Leaving himself with just over five thousand yuan for contingencies.
