Chapter 52 - Chapter 52 - 52 New Machine (2/2)

“`

Chen Yu was somewhat surprised, as the kindergarten’s holiday schedule really didn’t follow the usual pattern.

Just then, Zhang Fan hurried into the shop and called Chen Yu to fetch the machinery.

Chen Yu quickly called Zhao Meng and Han Cai and rushed to the next door.

Before long, several machines were set up in the kitchen.

The kitchen had been designed to be exceptionally spacious, so even after adding the braised meats, it only occupied half the space.

Even with these machines now in place, there was plenty of room to spare.

Chen Yu touched the machines with a hint of excitement, thinking he could finally take it easy.

[System notification, the machinery core is automatically activated, current points balance, 376,080.]

Chen Yu couldn’t help but gape, as yet another hundred thousand points were deducted.

“Old Chen, hurry up and install your core to test it out and see if it works,” urged Zhang Fan from outside the kitchen.

He also wanted to see how impressive these machines would be when in operation.

Chen Yu pretended to tinker with the machinery for a bit, then immediately plugged it in.

“Old Zhang, you really have some skills! How much is it? I’ll transfer it to you right now.”

Zhang Fan waved his hand, “Since the design is yours, I just provided some materials and labor. Just give me five thousand for these machines.”

Chen Yu took another look at the machines, noting that they were made of high-quality alloy.

At five thousand yuan, it seemed that Zhang Fan hardly made any profit.

“Old Zhang, how about I just give you six thousand! You’ve toiled all night, you should get some hardship pay,” Chen Yu suggested.

Zhang Fan got annoyed, “Old Chen, you’re treating me like an outsider now. Aren’t we buddies? Every time I come here to buy food, you always sneak in an extra one or two for me!”

“The other day I came here for braised meat, and you even added two extra pounds for me. Now you’re haggling over this, I’m really getting angry.”

Chen Yu couldn’t argue with Zhang Fan and ended up transferring five thousand.

Up to now, Chen Yu’s account had almost reached twenty thousand in sales and he estimated that today’s revenues might even surpass yesterday’s.

Without hesitation, Chen Yu eagerly tested the dough mixer.

The machine could connect to five large barrels at once and would automatically operate if water and flour were mixed into it in a certain ratio.

This was much faster than Chen Yu mixing dough by hand.

Looking at the machines in the kitchen, Chen Yu immediately phoned the flour supplier to deliver a hundred bags of flour.

The quantity startled the supplier.

A hundred bags of flour meant ten thousand pounds, and they had just delivered flour to Chen Yu the night before.

Tong Ya was also puzzled, “Why do you suddenly need so much flour?”

Chen Yu pointed to the machines in front of him, “We can’t just let these machines sit idle here, can we?”

“Are you saying you’re going to introduce new products?” Tong Ya’s black jade-like pupils widened slightly.

“Not exactly new products, just some staple foods!”

Before long, a large truck stopped at the shop’s door.

At that moment, Chen Yu’s account just happened to have a little over thirty thousand, so he transferred the payment to the driver.

Han Cai and Zhao Meng quickly pushed out two small carts from the cold storage to help unload the truck.

These two small carts were previously given to Chen Yu by Xie Jiang during the renovation.

After all, each bag of flour weighed a hundred pounds, and Chen Yu himself might not be able to carry it, let alone the two young ladies.

With the help of several delivery men, it didn’t take long to store the flour in the refrigerated warehouse.

Thankfully, they had cleared out half of the raw materials from the refrigerated warehouse the day before, otherwise, ten thousand pounds of flour might not have fit.
