When he arrived at the school, Zong Gu changed into a deacon's uniform and found that Hongzi was still waiting outside.
"Akane and Suzu have already gone to the department office first," said Hongzi. "It's more than half an hour before the start of today's school festival. Do you want to come and sit for a while?"
"OK."
The two walked towards the special building.
Most students come to school at this time, walk into the atrium, and greet each other with the people they know.
"Good morning."
"Good morning!"
"There is one more thing that I didn't say just now." Hongzi suddenly spoke.
Zong Gu looked over and waited for her to continue talking.
"When I went out in the morning, I told my mother that after the school festival ends tomorrow afternoon, I will go to celebrate with you. I will probably not go home at night and live in Zonggu. My mother did not object."
“…”
He opened his mouth, and a stone in his heart suddenly fell to the ground.
Although Mrs. Yoshikawa agreed to stay overnight with her daughter, which might not have been completely agreed, at least it showed an attitude: she was not so opposed.
The conversation at noon yesterday played some role.
"You said something." Hongzi was a little dissatisfied with his silence.
"Very good."
Zong Gu took a deep breath and held her hand, "It's so great."
"Well... it must be the words of Soguchi yesterday that moved her mother." Hongzi said, frowned again, "But other than that, my mother said nothing else, and I couldn't grasp her actual attitude."
"You can't expect her to completely change her mind in one go."
Zong Gu pulled her through the atrium, feeling that his body and mind were relaxed a lot.
"This is a step-by-step process, and a critical step has been taken. I think that day will not be too far."
Perhaps in the end, Mrs. Yoshikawa would not directly express her attitude, but instead allowed them to continue dating in a tacit way;
People always have selfish intentions, and what they want is not their absolute recognition, as long as they are not opposed.
"I can finally sleep with Hongzi."
“…indifferent.”
"Just sleep."
She pinched his waist.
When he arrived at the office on the fourth floor, Zong Gu found a little more trace on the door, as if something had been posted and tore it off.
"It's just a notice, asking the person I specially found to go to the Ministry of Literature and Art to buy a social magazine."
Akane Kirino was counting the remaining social magazines sold yesterday, "Later, Hongzi and I stayed here and tore them off."
"Do you still stay here today?"
"Yeah. There are more people on weekends, so I want to try my best to sell all the social magazines I brought with me."
After flipping through the social magazine of the Literature and Art Department, Sogo took out his wallet and threw three coins into the change box that Akane Kirino made temporarily.
"Thank you for patronizing~"
Akane Kirino smiled, "By the way, let's get a carefully produced social magazine from our Unnatural Research Department. It was edited by a popular handsome guy in the first grade."
"Is that what you recommend to others?"
"It's almost the same."
Soya paid her another 200 yen, then picked up a social magazine edited by herself and put it under her arm.
After proofreading several times, he was already familiar with the contents, but he could also show it to other people in the cafe.
“Um…”
"What did you think of?" Hongzi asked.
"If you really want to sell out all these social magazines, just take them to the places you need to queue up and sell them casually, and you can probably sell them all." Zong Gu said.
"Benka..."
Hongzi smiled, "This is not allowed. If the person from the Executive Committee finds out, you will be confiscated on the spot."
"Is that true?" Sonoya didn't pay much attention to this and didn't know it very clearly.
"Yes, the executive committee members have emphasized it before." Akane Kirino replied, "If every club sells their own things like this, the aisle will be blocked. Today, many people from outside the school are coming.
”
“That’s right.”
"But if you have permission, it's okay to sell in a cafe." She added.
Zong Gu understood what she meant and smiled and said, "If the sale was not going well in the morning, then take some to the cafe at noon, and I'll sell it by the way."
“Okay~”
After staying here for a while, when he went downstairs, he went to the Literature and Art Department to say hello. Zong Gu came to the classroom before the school festival the next day began.
"Good morning."
"Good morning, Songu."
Fushimi sat near the door and turned her head to look at him.
"Is something good happened? Soya is in a good mood."
Zong Gu sat down next to him, "That's right."
"Speaking of this afternoon...well, what is that?"
"Let's take a look at the social magazine I edited."
As they were talking and chatting, a few minutes later, two girls appeared at the door of Class A classroom.
"That... have you started business?"
“Yes, it has begun.”
Zong Gu stood up and smiled at the same time, "Welcome."
"The first guest is here!"
Fushimi turned her head and shouted, and the next day's business began.
The increase in traffic flow brought about by weekends is very obvious.
Although Danhai University is not the best private high school around Biwa Lake, it is also famous in Kinki for its excellent admission rate and rich club activities. The annual Dangao Academy Festival has attracted a large number of secondary school second and third middle school who are interested in Dangao.
Students come to participate;
According to Fujian, he was determined to get into this high school when he came to Dangao to attend the academy last year.
In addition, many high school students, college students, parents who come with their children and other off-campus people choose to come to this ceremony on weekends.
“There are more and more people queuing outside…”
Waiting for coffee at the front desk, Fumimi looked at the door of the classroom, happy for the popularity of her class and sighed for the busy future visible to the naked eye.
"Don't be lazy."
A table of guests left, Zong Gu returned to the front desk with a few empty plates, and then signaled another classmate at the door to put a group of people in.
Originally, he was standing at the door to attract customers, but the effect was too good. The small cafe could not withstand such a huge traffic, so Shiina Asaka hurriedly changed her personal information.
"I'm not lazy, I'm waiting for Xiao Shirakawa's coffee..."
Fumimi looked at a table of guests in the corner and looked at him again, "After that's it, the girls just now kept asking what conditions are needed for our hidden benefits today, it's inexplicable."
“…”
Zong Gu pursed his lower lip, "What hidden benefits."
"I don't know."
"Then tell them no."
"That's what I said."
Shirakawaki, who was standing inside, skillfully operated the coffee machine, picked up two cups of coffee, handed it to Fushimi, and looked at Soya again.
"A cup of coffee, ice cubes."
“There is no ice.”
"Not a piece?"
"yes."
"Let's go ahead."
The ages of customers in the store are generally between the ages of fifteen and eighteen, and the requirements for coffee are usually not too high, and it is easier to convince - if a three-second smile cannot dispel the unreasonable demands of the guests, then
Just laugh for three more seconds.
"I feel that Soya is almost smiling."
"Don't talk nonsense."
Send the coffee that has not been added with ice, and Soya smiled and explained, "Sorry, there are no ice cubes..."
"Ah, it's okay!"
The seats in the cafe are limited, and the queues outside are long. Although the people of Zong Gu will not be too busy to stop this morning, they will continue to be busy.
Even at noon, there were still more than a dozen girls queuing up at the classroom door.
"Student Zong Gu..."
Shiina Asaka stopped him as he walked past the front desk, "The ingredients have been completely used up. I'm going to go to the supermarket outside to replenish some. Please take care of me here."
Zong Gu thought for a while and said, "I think it's better to hear Fujian. I'd rather go to another class to buy some finished products, which will save time and effort."
Shiina Asaka hesitated a little, "This..."
"At worst, you can sell it at the original price."
"Okay. But, what's there to buy?"
Soya took out the Academy Festival manual for her, "There are all on it."
“…”
Shiina Asaka lowered her head and turned around.
After the decision was implemented, Zong Gu's mind was very fast.
"It's not troublesome to operate. Choose a few stores with average popularity and food is more convenient to deliver. Let's discuss and ask them to choose a person to be responsible for delivery. We order the order here, and they will deliver it there. Who do I think I want.
We don’t want to operate at a loss, so it should be easier to negotiate. We don’t have to hide it from our customers. When ordering, we directly explain the source of the food. Those who are interested can find it by themselves.”
"Ah..." Shiina Asaka looked at him blankly.
"Can you understand?"
"Can...."
Probably, I have to explain it again.
Soya was too lazy to wait until she understood before executing it, "I'll explain it to them."
"good."
He looked at the boys who had just returned to the classroom a few minutes ago, "It's time for you to change shifts."
“OK.”
Let Fushimi and others gather around him, and Soya explained his plan to them.
"Remember, it's key to get them to choose the person responsible for delivery as soon as possible, and you're going to come back with their menu and that person's contact information."
He looked at the girl in the front desk who was originally responsible for making the dishes.
"Classmate Zhonggu, you are responsible for contacting them. I suggest you create a group chat directly and send it to the group if you receive an order, so as to avoid searching one by one."
"Ah, OK!"
Zong Gu thought about it again, but didn't expect anything missing for the time being, so he said:
"Then go find a qualified store now. Fushimi goes to the first floor, I go to the second floor, and Yuanda goes to the third floor..."
After the allocation was over, several people left Class A and rushed to the floor where they were responsible.
Fushimi and Soya went downstairs together.
"It's really simple and clear. Zonggu had this plan yesterday."
"I heard you mention it yesterday, so I thought about it a little."
"If you are still in the same class in the second grade, I will definitely recommend you to be the chairman."
"Forget it, I don't have this time."
"What are you going to do?"
"fall in love."
“…”
The two separated at the stairs on the second floor and turned into the corridor. The nearest class was Class B in the second year. Sogo looked down at the Academy Festival manual in his hand.
"Can the book show be directly ruled out."
After passing Class B, I walked a few steps forward and saw Class A where Kyoko was.
He walked past the door and there was no business in the store. Kyoko was dazed at the front desk.
Although the conditions were quite suitable, Zong Gu was preparing to come here again at the end, so he did not say hello to her and went straight to the next class, Class J in Year 3.
"Osaka octopus...Coffee with takoyaki is not bad."
Soya walked in, perhaps because there was a stall of takoyaki in the atrium below, and the popularity of the store was low. As soon as he entered, several third-grade seniors looked over.
"Welcome!"
Very enthusiastic.
"Who is your person in charge?"
Several people looked at each other.
Well... it's a bit like being here to smash the situation.
Zong Gu coughed lightly, "Who is the senior who is the person in charge here? I have something I want to discuss with him."
The third-grade boy standing in the middle looked around and saw that everyone beside him looked at him, and said, "I can say that he is the person in charge... Is there anything wrong, junior."
Zong Gu explained his purpose.
The other party was suffering from the lack of business in the store, and a few girls were trying hard to persuade him, so he quickly agreed.
"Then, is the person in charge of the delivery? Sugishita?"
"Yes."
"Please give me your contact information, preferably Line."
“OK~”
After a negotiation with Class J of the third year, Zong Gu skipped Class H and Class I, which also had no store opening, and came to Class G of the third year on the far left of the second floor.
"I actually made popcorn in the classroom...but the popularity seems to be pretty good."
Zong Gu tried to talk to the person in charge of Class G, and the other party said with regret that he could not get any man in the store, and then gave him a small bag of popcorn.
"Thanks……"
Leaving Class G, he turned to Class A, the second year running Osakayaki. This time, Kyoko saw him at a glance.
"Student Fangming."
"Kyoko. How is the business in the store?"
After taking the popcorn, Kyoko glanced at it twice, shook her head slightly, indicating that it was not very good.
"That's great... no, I mean we can cooperate."
Kyoko is only responsible for cashiers, and the main person in charge is another student.
The two sides hit it off and soon agreed to contact information. Before Soya left, they asked for another Osakayayaki.
"I'll come down to eat later."
Back at the cafe, Zong Gu handed over the contact information to Zhong Gu, and then wrote the extra dishes on the blackboard.
【Taokao (Class J in 3rd Year)】
【Osakayaki (Second Class A)】
Fushimi and others also came back one after another, and the higher the floor, the more they gained.
【Chinese Fried Rice (Class C in 2nd Year)】
【Snake Snake (Year E Class)】
"What do those written on the blackboard mean? Are you advertising them?" someone asked.
"No, we can order these things in our store."
"Ah, that's so convenient. Then I want a takoyaki."
"Okay." The deacon received the order and transferred it to Zhonggu, and then she sent the order in the group chat.
Deacon Cafe (Class A, 2nd Year): A takoyaki.
Skin is crispy and tender, delicious and cheap, with a lot of octopus meat (class J in three years): OK~
Within a few minutes, the senior sister in Class J of the third year came with a takoyaki.
The front desk was responsible for checking out, and the deacon delivered the takoyaki to the guest's table, and the first order of cooperation was successfully completed.
"It's going well." Shiina Asaka said.
"Um."
Zong Gu felt relieved and then went to rest.
I went downstairs to Class A of the second year. The Osakayaki he asked for before leaving was ready and put in a paper bag.
Taking Osakayaki, he walked to the cashier, "How much?"
Kyoko sat inside, "I've paid."
"Have you paid?... Kyoko treats you?"
"uh-huh."
After biting Osakayaki, Soya looked at the time again, and it was about half an hour before she could change shifts.
"I want to sit with Kyoko."
She didn't say anything and pulled open the chair next to her.
Zong Gu walked in from the other side and sat down next to her.
"What is Kyoko's lunch?"
She pointed to the schoolbag hanging next to her, "Benbox."
"Don't you eat it? It's time to rest now." Zong Gu said.
Kyoko shook her head.
After taking another bite, Soya put the remaining half of Osakaya into a paper bag and folded it.
"Then I'll wait for you."
"Aren't you hungry?"
"I'm not that hungry when I'm with Kyoko."
"Um."
"There are so many people today, and the corridors are almost full."
“There is still no change in the store.”
"If you make this single snack, if you don't have any special features, you still pay attention to the location of the store."
"Well. Whether you can get your money back depends on Fang Ming's cafe."
Zong Gu smiled, "The responsibility is really important."
As they were talking, the few people on the other side who were responsible for the Osakayaki suddenly became a little turbulent.
"I received the order." Kyoko said.
"I think so."
One of them stared at his cell phone and looked up to greet his companions.
"Wait a minute, Oji, make two."
"no problem."
Two portions of Osakayaki were completed quickly and sent upstairs.
Both sides were going well, Zong Gu thought.
After waiting for a while, a girl came in, "Guan Yuan... Huh?"
She looked at Sonoya, "Who are you? Guanhara's boyfriend?"
"Yes." He nodded.
Kyoko looked at him without refuting.
The man looked at him a few more times and looked at Kyoko: "Sorry, I've been waiting for a long time. Let's do it."
“Not the time has come yet…”
"Didn't Guan Yuan stand for me for a while yesterday at noon? He just thought it was an exchange."
Kyoko stopped talking and changed shifts with her.
"Let's eat here."
Several dining tables were also set up in the classroom of Class A in the second year, which were all empty at this time, and it was a rare quiet place in the overly lively school.
"Um."
The two sat down in the corner, Kyoko opened the bento and started eating, and Soya continued to chew on Osakaya.
"Is one serving enough?"
“Not enough.”
She pushed her lunch box over, "I can't eat too much."
Zong Gu picked up a piece of flowering intestine and returned the quickie to her, "I'll just eat a little bit."
"Um."
Kyoko continued to eat.
He bit Osakayaki in his mouth, and Yu Guang of Soya saw a boy on the other side of the classroom patting another boy on the shoulder, and the latter looked here, looking a little dull.
It seems that he is also one of the many people who have a crush on Kyoko...
"Do you still want it?" Kyoko suddenly asked.
"Ah, um. I want to try that char siu."
She picked up the char siu from the bento and fed it to his mouth.
Zong Gu opened his mouth and took it, licking his lips, "It tastes really good."
