“Me too... I never expected this job to be so tough. My arms feel like they’re going to break after just one day,” Gao Ming said wearily.

Qiao Mei held up the money box and said, “Aren’t you curious about how much money we made?”

“Let me do it!” At the mention of money, Xia He immediately perked up. She took the box and counted the money carefully.

Everyone’s eyes were on Xia He. After two minutes, Xia He said in shock, “Oh my goodness! We made 8,000 dollars!”

“What! How can it be so much!” Auntie Wang said excitedly.

After deducting the cost of ingredients and Alice’s commission, as well as labor fees, they had made a net profit of at least 7,000 dollars today. Moreover, they were sold out by the afternoon. This meant that they could make at least 210,000 dollars a month!

Gao Ming could not believe his ears. This was an astonishing amount of money. He had never even made so much money from his business in Sky City. It was already good enough if he did not lose money.

“We can open chain stores after a while! We’re going to be rich!” Gao Ming said.

“But we can’t let others know our secret recipe!” Xia He said with a troubled expression.

Gao Ming remained silent. He was born in Country M and did not have the same kind of feelings for Hu City. However, he completely understood where Qiao Mei was coming from. At the end of the day, everyone would want to return to where they came from.

“How about this! When we make money, we’ll split it 30-70! I’ll take 30% and you take 70%! We can discuss the details later!” Gao Ming said.

Qiao Mei had thought that Gao Ming would suggest splitting the profits

50-50. She did not expect him to be so willing to give them such a big cut. Qiao Mei did not really care about this income stream. She had already handed the farm over to Xia He. The two of them could finalize the details themselves. However, the 30-70 split which Gao Ming had mentioned was definitely not the way to go.

After discussing what they needed to replenish tomorrow, everyone went to their rooms to rest. Qiao Mei had agreed to give Auntie Wang and the rest a cut of the profits. They would make 10 cents for each dumpling they made, which meant 100 dumplings were worth 10 dollars! Auntie Wang made them so fast that she could produce 2,000 dumplings a day and earn an additional 200 dollars a day! Everyone was inspired to work even harder!

The next day, even before the shop opened, there was already a long queue at the door. Everyone had woken up early to get in line.

“Everyone, you’re really too early! We only open at 10! How about this, I’ll give out number tags to everyone. We’re only selling 600 portions a day! You can come and collect your order using the number tag!” Qiao Mei shouted.

“That’s really too little! Can you sell more! Your dumplings are really too delicious!” someone in the queue shouted.

“We have limited manpower and we can’t make so many! I’m really sorry!

Tomorrow! We’ll sell another 100 portions tomorrow!” Qiao Mei shouted..
