Chatper 16: Making Money
With the whole day's work and picking up customers on the second day of the opening, although he made a lot of money, he was really tired. Since then, Gu Bai has only opened a shop in the morning to sell vegetables, and set aside time in the afternoon to be himself thing.
Although he is not tired anymore, his income has been cut in half all of a sudden, and Gu Bai is also very distressed.
In particular, he checked the price of seeds in the real world. Although it is much cheaper than the price of finished vegetables, fruits and grains, it is not what he can afford now. In addition, his planet is on the edge of the Huaxia Empire, far from the Central Star and other planets. They are far away, and if the seeds are shipped over, the courier fee is another huge expense.
"Alas... a penny beats a hero, if only there was a quicker way to make money." Gu Bai couldn't help sighing.
In fact, he can raise the price of each dish up, even if it is doubled, it is cheaper than other gourmet restaurants, but he can't pass the test in his heart.
He knows that food in this world is very scarce and rare is the most expensive, so the price remains high.
But in his opinion, food is for people to eat, so that everyone can fully taste the charm of food. If you keep it on the shelf, it will go against the original intention.
His current price is very profitable, and he doesn't want to raise it to make money, not to mention that everyone is just tasting it, not really eating it.
So, you have to find other ways to make money.
As long as he can buy seeds and the farm opens, he won't have to worry about money in the future.
"Boss, why do you only open in the morning now? It's not enough. I've been queuing for several days. When will it be my turn?" A customer looked at Gu Bai sadly.
"Boss, these golden stars and coins have been delivered to you, there is no reason not to earn them."
"That's right, boss, I beg to open a shop in the afternoon too."
More and more customers come to the gourmet restaurant to eat, mainly because all the customers who have eaten here before have basically become repeat customers, plus the new ones, the tables and chairs of the small store are vying for each customer every day. Some customers even bring their own small benches.
"I'm still busy with the farm in the afternoon, so I don't have that much time to open a shop." Gu Bai explained.
"Farm? Does the boss's family run a farm? Does that mean that the boss will open a gourmet restaurant offline in the future?"
As soon as the customer's words came out, the eyes of all the customers in the store immediately lit up.
"The dishes made in the second world are just as delicious. If they were in reality, what would they be like? Shouldn't this dish only be found in the sky, and how many times should it be eaten in the world?"
"Boss, which planet is your farm on, I'll start saving money now, and I must eat it once in reality!"
"Boss, may I ask if you are still short of chores, the kind that you can eat well when you go to college. You don't need wages, you just need to take care of your meals every day."
The customers were asking and joking.
"The farm is still in its infancy. It is estimated that it will be a long time before the store opens. I will definitely let everyone know as soon as it opens." Gu Bai said with a smile, and was very happy with everyone's enthusiasm.
If this group of customers can become potential customers of his farm, then part of the problem of customer source can be solved.
"Boss, have you signed up for the food competition? I will definitely vote for you and pick you."
"Yes, yes, I will also vote for the boss."
"Food contest?" Gu Bai had never heard of it.
