Chapter 77 – I Like Little Sisters
“One [Juicy Burger] bag is 5 copper coins, then, 10 copper coins for a takeaway box is fine ba . ” Mike said calmly, perfectly unperturbed . So the [System] was unhappy? Well then, let’s move the topic back to business .
“20 copper coins!” [System] demanded after a while, then it said firmly, “The net profit of [Yangzhou Fried Rice] is 300 copper coins, with the added cost of 20 copper coins for the takeaway box, you will still earn 280 coins . The [System] maintains top quality material as always, the exterior of the lunch box will be painted by top painters . The box biodegradable, perfectly eco friendly, and can be reused many times…”
“5 copper coins . ” Mike shamelessly tossed out a lower offer, and said lightly, “[System] even if I let him walk away with the whole plate, that guy will actually wash the dish and bring it back the next day? Please member, this is a buyer’s market, in fact, I felt that 300 copper coins is a little low . ”
“Deal, 10 copper coins!” The [System] said quickly, it sounded a little sullen and helpless . “The takeaway box is being created, it will be completed in 5 minutes . ”
“Very good . ” Mike was quite happy with the [System’s] efficiency . He turned to Jacques with a smile, “Yes, however you’ll have to pay an additional 20 copper coins for the takeaway box . ”
“20 copper coins, is it? Very well, please prepare one takeaway portion for me . As for the dine in portion, do cancel that . ” Jacques said, after a thinking about it for a while .
Though other diners do not have a habit of charging extra for their takeaway boxes, this fried rice already cost 600 copper coins, an additional 20 copper coins is nothing . As long as the standard of this [Yangzhou Fried Rice] was as par with the burger and able to tempt his wife into eating more, he’d be willing to pay more . ”
“Please wait a moment . ” Mike nodded, and made his way to the kitchen . He hadn’t heard a peep from the [System], no roars of admonition or cries of being cheated came . To tell the truth, he’d always been good at making money in his past life, it’s just that he’d been too lazy to do so .
Jacques Francois and the rest ate their second [Juicy Burger] and continued to enjoy the feeling of deliciousness, and of course, fat loss .
Though the vibrating rolls of fat stung the eyes of those customers who just entered the restaurant, the expression on everyone’s face remained cheerful and indulgent . It could be said that Mike’s XXL customers with their XXL faces magnified the feeling of happiness and deliciousness, to the point that it was kind of like watching a commercial playing in the background . It made the people curious about the [Juicy Burger] and wondered whether it really tasted as good as they made it look . Though a lot of them still felt that 300 copper coins was a bit steep, a few first time customers couldn’t help but ordered a portion just to try it . This way, quite a few new customers came in .
5 minutes later, the takeaway box was completed by the [System]
Mike, who had been busily making the [Yangzhou Fried Rice] turned to take a look, and saw a slightly larger iron box had appeared next to the iron box that contained the stack of [Juicy Burger] wrappers . Inside, was a stack brown, wooden boxes .
Mike turned off the fire and picked up one of the boxes to take a look . The thickness of the box was similar to the cardboard box in his previous worlds, but the hardness was much better . Moreover, there was a transparent lining within the box that was similar plastic, clearly it was there for cleanliness purpose and to prevent spillage of liquid .
On the cover of the box were the words ‘Mickey’s Restaurant’ over a simple outline of cute Amy’s image . On the lower right end corner was a line of words, it was the shop’s address . The overall look was very classy and refined . If it weren’t for its excessive thinness, they would be able to use it as a regular bowl for daily use .
“Not bad, this really matches the restaurant’s style . ” Mike nodded satisfactorily .
As expected of the [System], the workmanship and quality was impeccable, in truth, squashing it down to10 copper coins was a little excessive .
Naturally, he didn’t feel a little bit guilty, since the [System] answered so readily, it probably didn’t suffer a loss .
Moreover, since there was no [Yangzhou Fried Rice] printed on the cover, he could use it as a takeaway box for whatever item in the future .
Mike transferred the [Yanghou Fried Rice] the takeaway box . The beautiful colours of the fried rice remained the same .
“One [Juicy Burger] and one takeaway [Yangzhou Fried Rice], please make sure it remains this way up . ” Mike placed both items in front of Jacques .
“Very well, thank you . ” Jacques looked down at the exquisite box in front of him, his eyes lit up . In a normal restaurant, the takeaway boxes were generally some sloppily made box, but this, this box was clearly crafted by experienced craftsmen . Just looking at it one would have thought it was a gift box instead of a takeaway box .
To only charge 20 copper coins for this kind of of box, surely Boss Mike must have made a loss somewhere? Jacques, who had felt that this fried rice was a little expensive now thought that he had managed to gain a great bargain .
As for his wife, if she sees this wonderful box surely she would feel delighted . H e couldn’t wait to bring this home for her to try .
“Naturally, both fried rice and burger taste better when hot, also, the burger is not suitable for pregnant ladies . ” Mike looked at the [Juicy Burger] in Jacques’ hand, his face concerned as he warned this customer .
“Very well, Boss Mike . I’d like to pay for this takeaway fried rice and burger first . As for the other two, burgers, as for the other two burgers, we’ll all settle it our own way later . ” Jacques nodded as he took out the dragon coin for Mike .
“Boss Mike, I’ll pay for everyone, ba . ” Harrison said .
“The total is 9 gold coins . ” Amy, still hugging Ugly Ducklingc came up, a single gold coin already in her hand .
“This little boss is such a good helper . I have a son about your age, what if I bring him over to play with you, ba . ” Jacques smiled as he placed the single dragon coin in Amy’s hand and took the gold coin .
“I like sisters, but it’s too bad you have none . ” Amy shook her head sadly even as she put away the dragon coin .
“… …” The smile on Jacques’ face froze . Though he felt a little stung by the remark, there was nothing he could say in retaliation .
“Hahaha…” The rest of the good friends laughed .
Mike also could not help the grin on his face, while it’s true that Amy did prefer playing with female friends, her answer was still too straightforward .
“Maybe this time will be it, many thanks Boss Mike, little boss . ” Jacques regained his dignity and turned to Harrison and his other friends, “Well, I shall leave now to deliver this to your sister-in-law . It’ll be my treat next time . ”
“I like this suggestion . ” The fatty in blue nodded .
“Say, isn’t it great to be able to live here, not leaving the house and yet able to eat delicious things . ” The Fatty in red sighed as he looked at Jacques who was carefully carrying the box of fried rice with him .
“You won’t be able to afford a chef like Boss Mike . ” The Fatty in green teased him .
“No, what I meant is, if Boss Mike could find someone to deliver these delicious dishes to us, how nice it would be? I really don’t mind paying more for such a service, ah . ” The Fatty in red said and he shook his head .
“Isn’t that delivery service!” Mike who had been making his way to the kitchen suddenly paused .
