After divorcing my celebrity wife, I became the world's richest person

After a round of experimentation, Chen Yu had a rough idea of the pricing.

A pound of flour could make about three large baked flatbreads, priced at two yuan each.

As for the noodles, a pound of flour could yield two large bowls, each priced at three yuan.

Such prices were much cheaper than those outside.

Besides, these items were meant to pair with the marinated dishes, so there was no need to mark up the prices too high.

Once Chen Yu entered the prices into the ordering system, the whole store immediately went crazy.

It was nearing noon now, and a lot of people had already come in for lunch.

A bowl of noodles, three ounces of marinated dishes, two flatbreads, half a pound of marinated...

Combinations like these suddenly became all the rage.

By twelve at noon, the number of people in the store was more than double that of yesterday.

There were even people who brought tables and stools to sit outside.

Looking at the sea of people before him, Chen Yu felt the two hundred thousand points deducted by the system yesterday were well worth it.

Plus, he was certainly feeling much more relaxed now.

Just then, Xie Jiang arrived with a group of more than twenty workers, entering the shop with great fanfare.

"Old Chen, is my marinated meat ready?"

Chen Yu stuck his head out of the kitchen, somewhat embarrassed.

"It is, but we\'re out of space now!"

Xie Jiang waved his hand dismissively, "We rough folks don\'t need seats! I see you\'ve got noodles and flatbreads now, so just prepare forty bowls of noodles and ten pounds of marinated meat for us; we\'ll eat outside."

Chen Yu hurriedly made the noodles and then divided the ten pounds of marinated meat into forty portions to put in the bowls.

"My God, this is so delicious!" Xie Jiang couldn\'t help shouting after taking a bite.

The workers beside him started wolfing down their food as well.

"The noodles are firm, the marinate is fragrant! If we had some chili and vinegar, it would be even more amazing."

"No way, I need five more big bowls!"

...

With the addition of the main dishes, the number of customers honestly got a bit overwhelming.

Even though Chen Yu was now saving quite a bit of effort, managing so many machines at the same time was still a bit too much for him to handle.

In the end, he had to stop making fried cakes and vegetable turnovers on the first floor and even called Han Cai from outside to help, along with Chu Hong, in managing these machines.

Tong Ya hadn\'t expected the day to be this busy; she didn\'t even have time to talk to Chen Yu.

By three in the afternoon, the lunchtime crowd had just begun to dissipate when the dinner crowd started to come in.

Until six o\'clock, the shop was packed with a lively throng of people.

Xie Jiang also returned with the group of workers, hoping to have an early dinner.

But seeing the bustling scene in the shop, he immediately didn\'t want to cause too much trouble for Chen Yu.

So he only ordered a bowl of noodles for each worker.

Taking advantage of a moment when Chen Yu was delivering noodles, Xie Jiang pulled him aside.

"Old Chen, if you ask me, the ordering system in your shop is a bit outdated; you should consider making some changes."

Chen Yu was instantly intrigued, "How should we change it?"

"You set up a few ordering stations where customers can scan and order through a code, then they\'ll get a receipt. With the receipt, they can go straight to the counter to pick up their food!"

Chen Yu slapped his thigh in agreement.

This way, they could eliminate the process of servers delivering meals.

They only needed to assign one or two waiters to clean up the hall.

The rest could focus on monitoring the kitchen.

"Where can I buy this system now?" Chen Yu quickly asked.

"You just need to modify your existing system and add some small devices; I have them ready. I\'ll bring them to you now!"

With that, Xie Jiang ran back to his store, still holding his bowl.

His store wasn\'t far from Chen Yu\'s, and soon, one of his helpers sent over a pile of parts.

"Old Chen, when your place is free tonight, I\'ll help you install it."

"Thank you so much!" Chen Yu shook Xie Jiang\'s hand excitedly, relieved that his big problem was being solved, "How much is it? I\'ll transfer the money to you now."

"Hey, what money?" Xie Jiang was somewhat annoyed: "I was the one who installed your system in the first place, and now it\'s just a little upgrade; consider it after-sales service."

Chen Yu wanted to decline, but Xie Jiang just pushed his hand away.

"Old Chen, if you keep this up, we can\'t be friends anymore."

Chen Yu sighed softly and didn\'t insist further.

By 8 PM, the restaurant was still serving many customers, but the flow of people had finally begun to die down.

After all, today\'s braised meats were nearly sold out.

Seizing the lull, Xie Jiang quickly helped Chen Yu upgrade the system.

This system was simple, just like before, it used QR codes, but now it had an added ticketing system.

The waiters needed to occasionally load ticket rolls into the system.

There were a total of twelve ordering points set up across two floors, six on each level.

And the two kitchens were completely separated.

The second floor was specifically for selling fried cakes and vegetable pastries, whereas the first floor focused on braised foods and noodles.

This way, when customers came to pick up their food, there was directionality to it, avoiding long queues at a single window.

By 9 PM, the whole store had been cleaned and the last customer had been seen off.

Chen Yu specially set aside some flatbread and noodles, as well as ten pounds of braised meat.

Today was definitely the busiest day ever; the six girls were exhausted.

Moreover, they had been working from 4:30 in the morning until now, without a break even for a moment.

Just after dinner, the meat delivery guy arrived at the door, but today Chen Yu had directly ordered two thousand pounds from him.

After unloading the truck, Chen Yu gathered the six girls together.

"Tomorrow morning, everyone can sleep a bit more; coming to the shop by five will be fine, and about the distribution for tomorrow, has everyone got it?"

After giving instructions, they went back to the dormitory.

[Congratulations, Host, for perfectly completing a day\'s business. Today\'s net profit is ninety-nine thousand two hundred yuan, earning ninety-nine thousand two hundred points. The total accumulated points are now four hundred seventy-five thousand two hundred eighty.]

The revenue was indeed less than the previous two days; it mainly fell short in vegetable pastries.

After all, during the previous two days, staple foods weren\'t on the menu, and many people ate vegetable pastries together with braised meats.

Now with the staple foods available, customers naturally chose to forego vegetable pastries selectively.

It seemed that fried cakes sales had also decreased somewhat.

This was an inevitable result due to the change in the store\'s sales structure.

Moreover, the day had indeed been a bit chaotic.

Therefore, Chen Yu went direct and got two thousand pounds of pork to change tomorrow\'s sales structure.

After buying the pork, Chen Yu still had over ninety thousand in liquid funds.

He directly deposited the ninety thousand into his current account, leaving just over two thousand as daily expenses.

Now, there was a total of six hundred seventy thousand in his current account.

Not until this moment did he stretch lazily, lower the folding door, and return to the third floor.
