Chapter 41 Opening

The next day Chu Yunfeng got up early and went to buy a bunch of 888 firecrackers before going to his shop.

As soon as I arrived at the door, I found that several flower baskets had been placed at the door, and a small cart was parked next to it.

"Is this Mr. Chu?" After Chu Yunfeng came over, a man got out of the car and asked.

"Yes." Chu Yunfeng nodded.

"Please sign for it. We will come back to collect it in 7 days." The man waited for Chu Yunfeng to sign and then drove away.

Put the firecrackers at the door, light them, then run to the side and watch them crackle and ring brightly.

It was still six o'clock in the morning, and none of the surrounding shops had opened yet, so no one came to congratulate the business on its opening.

Chu Yunfeng opened the door, took out a broom, cleaned the firecrackers, and started a new day.

Today is the first day of business, everything should start "from scratch".

Before closing last night, Chu Yunfeng set up a timer to automatically boil soup stock. He didn't know what the situation was and whether it would work or not.

After entering the store, Chu Yunfeng immediately checked the cooking status of the soup stock.

It looks pretty good! There are white flowers in the soup pot, and the rich and mellow smell wafts out as Chu Yunfeng opens the door.

"It smells so good!" Mu Qing, who was about to reach the first store, smelled the fragrance from a distance. When she got closer, she realized that the fragrance was coming from the store.

It seems pretty good. What kind of ingredients is this soup made from? Why does it smell so fragrant!

It was already half past six in the morning, there was still a little time before dawn, and there were very few pedestrians on the street.

Mu Qing saw the flower basket placed in front of the store from a distance. It was very conspicuous in the whole street and it was the only one like this.

When I walked to the door and took a look, I didn't expect that the store was quite unique. The whole shape looked antique and very charming.

There are two tables placed outside, surrounded by fences, and a step in the middle. Looking up the steps, there is a plaque with the words "First Grade" written on it.

Yi...pin...Mu Qing read these two words slowly, as if she was savoring the meaning of the two words.

Well, the name was pretty good. Mu Qing nodded, secretly thinking that in ancient times, the first rank was the prime minister of the dynasty.

After entering the store, Mu Qing took off the scarf from her neck, rubbed her hands, and breathed a sigh of relief.

As soon as he entered his eyes, he saw Chu Yunfeng busy making noodles on the kitchen counter, with a plate of prepared meat fillings beside him.

After looking around at the layout of the store, Mu Qing became more and more surprised.

The decoration in the store looks unique and elegant. There are two types of machines inside and outside the kitchen that I have never seen before. Is this a snack shop?

"Here he comes?" Chu Yunfeng was using all his strength to unleash his ultimate move "Yangguan Triple Layer". The moment he raised his head, he saw Mu Qing.

"Yeah." Mu Qing nodded and came to the kitchen counter. Her eyes were immediately attracted to the mechanical arm.

The floating foam on the soup pot was accurately knocked off by the robotic arm. Could it be that all the soup in the pot was made by the robotic arm? Mu Qing secretly guessed.

I looked at the color of the broth and judged from the color that it had been simmered for at least 5 hours.

Chu Yunfeng couldn't have been cooking this pot of soup in the shop since 1 o'clock in the morning. No one would be so bored.

Most shops start cooking the stock for the next day in the afternoon, and judging from the milky white color of the stock, it is possible to get such a bright white color by constantly skimming off the foam.

So this robotic arm is smart?!

This was the first machine Mu Qing had never seen before, and it was beyond her expectations.

What is that big machine at the back used for? Why does its shape look so strange?

The noodle making machine has a rather "weird" shape, which makes it hard to figure out what it does at first glance.

But if it is placed in the kitchen, it should be a machine for processing ingredients.

Mu Qing's guess was quite reliable. Although she didn't completely guess its specific use, she could guess pretty well by drawing parallels.

"We have to wait for a while, the dough is not ready yet." After finishing the noodles, he still needed to wake up for a while. Chu Yunfeng did not expect Mu Qing to come so early.

According to my own estimation, the guests should not arrive until at least 7 o'clock, so the ingredients were prepared a little late.

It takes half an hour to wake up the noodles. According to this calculation, all the ingredients will not be ready until after 7 o'clock.

There was still half an hour left, Chu Yunfeng said quickly: "Let's sit down for a while, we still need to wake up."

"It's okay. I'm tired of sitting at work every day. Stand for a while." Mu Qing put the scarf on the edge of the kitchen counter, and the cash register next to it caught her attention.

Touch screen cash register?

Or is it made in Germany?

Very few people in China know this brand of German products. Most of their products are only available in Europe and the United States. Because they are expensive, they are rarely used in China.

It seems that this style is the latest model, and it is probably not officially released yet. Where did he get it?

There are two very familiar stickers on the phone under the cash register, one for Alipay and one for WeChat.

The two payment stickers are posted side by side on both sides, like two gods of wealth standing at the door.

"How much does it cost for a bowl of Chaoshou? Give me two bowls." Mu Qing looked at these two "door gods" and felt very kind. She must scan them both.

At this time, the cash register is not turned on yet, so the only option is to scan the QR code to pay.

"No need to pay, I'll treat you to a meal." Chu Yunfeng waved his hand, why would he be embarrassed to accept money?

I still remember the flower basket, and I came so early in the morning to boost the popularity of my shop. Do I still have the nerve to accept the money?

"That won't work. The money must be given. This is the first business of opening a store, so it must be a good sign."

When Mu Qing arrived, she found that she was alone, and Chu Yunfeng had not prepared any ingredients, which fully demonstrated that she was the first customer in the store.

"It's okay, there's really no need. I don't care about this." Chu Yunfeng was also a little anxious. In his heart, he really didn't want her to pay. It would be nice to treat her to a meal, right?

"No, if you don't let me pay, I won't eat. I'll leave right away." Mu Qing was also very determined to pay. This was her first business, so she had to be very particular about it.

"Oh, okay then, I'm really sorry." Chu Yunfeng felt Mu Qing's persistence, and he was also afraid that the beauty would really leave if he persisted.

Mu Qing took out her mobile phone and scanned Alipay. After hearing a ding, she asked, "How much is it? Tell me quickly."

Chu Yunfeng also heard the sound of scanning the code, and had no choice but to say: "99 for a bowl."

"Oh, okay, 99." Mu Qing followed Chu Yunfeng's words and read 99, and also entered 99 on her hand.

Just when she was about to click confirm, Mu Qing's hand stopped above the confirm button.

99?

99 a bowl?

...!

I think I heard it right just now, 99 a bowl, that’s impossible, right?!

But he seemed to have said 99 just now, and he seemed to have read 99 as well, and even typed 99 on his mobile phone!

Is there something wrong with my hearing?

Mu Qing raised her head slightly and glanced at Chu Yunfeng, then looked at her phone.

It was written very clearly on the phone, it was indeed 99, without any symbols in the middle.

By the way, when I walked in, I saw a price sign above my head. Let me take a look. Am I making a mistake?

Mu Qing raised her head and looked upward.

In a whole row of wooden signs, only the first sign has words written on it, and it clearly says "Red oil hand copy, 9.9 yuan."

It’s 9.9, so why did he say it was 99?

What's going on?!

"No response after scanning, I'll scan again." Mu Qing canceled the previous payment interface and scanned again.

After the ding sound, Mu Qing asked again: "How much is a bowl?"

Chu Yunfeng answered honestly: "99 a bowl."

….

Signing remarks: The most real feeling is that it is really not easy, whether it is for me, the editor, or even the "Dalong" friends of China Literature.

I set off on January 18th and returned to my mother-in-law's house on the 20th. Everything was so calm. I thought I would just go home and spend a year. The dozens of chapters I uploaded as backups before leaving should be enough. My computer is a bit slow.

I didn’t want to take him with me, but somehow I took this old guy with me before I went out. This was definitely a wise decision.

However, no matter how smart you are, you can't escape the trapped situation. When you had more than 30,000 words, you received a website message and needed to print out a mailing contract. Considering the situation at the time, you were dumbfounded. In the end, it took 10 days to successfully mail the contract. The process

The hardship is still unforgettable, so I am particularly grateful.

I would like to express my special thanks to the editors, "Dalong", and the book friends who have always voted for recommendations, especially Jingxin, The King, The Protagonist, Poisonous Girl, Red Sun, Emotion... etc.; although it is still
Chapter completed!
