Chapter 153 Recruiting!
"Business is booming!"
Fatty Su clicked his tongue, his eyes filled with amazement: "Little Food God, your iced tea and barbecue takeout is absolutely amazing!"
"This is just the beginning."
Tang Chuan nodded with a smile, secretly pleased.
The fact that it has such a high level of popularity on the first day of opening not only allows it to quickly accumulate popularity, but also allows the age of the second soul ring to increase rapidly. Once Soto City is stable, it will be necessary to expand the equipment to the surrounding towns.
We arrived at the entrance of the commercial street.
Snake Granny Chaotianxiang was pacing back and forth, looking around. When she saw Tang Chuan and the others, she quickly walked over to greet them.
"Old man!"
"Your Majesty Clear Sky! Xiaochuan! You've finally returned!"
Are you alright?
Chao Tianxiang looked at the group with concern, and breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that Long Gong Meng Shu was unharmed.
"It's nothing, just a small misunderstanding, it's been resolved."
Tang Chuan smiled reassuringly, his tone relaxed.
Long Gong Meng Shu patted her shoulder to reassure her: "It was a false alarm. We are grateful to His Majesty Clear Sky and the two seniors beside Xiao Chuan."
He vaguely mentioned Fatty Su and Skinny Su, without going into details.
Snake Granny Chaotianxiang then noticed Su Pang and Su Shou. Seeing that she couldn't quite figure them out, and with Dragon Duke's guidance, she quickly cupped her hands in greeting: "Greetings, Your Majesties!"
"Mother-in-law, there's no need for such formalities."
Fatty Su waved his hand happily, and Skinny Su nodded in response.
After exchanging a few pleasantries, the group headed towards the shop. Chao Tianxiang, all smiles, stepped aside to lead the way, saying, "Come in and rest for a bit."
"The mistress is so busy at the store that she doesn't even have time to rest."
"It's good that you're back. Old man, please help maintain order. I'll go and relieve Xiao San for a bit, and also bring you some of our signature snacks."
"That's great!"
Su Pang's eyes lit up, and he rubbed his chubby hands together as he followed closely behind: "I was so busy negotiating with the Crown Prince of the Heaven Dou Empire that I didn't get to eat my fill!"
The restaurant was packed, with even the aisles filled with customers waiting to pick up their food.
Many people were holding up flyers with the words "Tang's Takeout" printed on them, praising the barbecue as "absolutely amazing!"
"It's even better than the signature roast meat at the Drunken Flower Pavilion next door! I need to buy more so my wife and kids can take some home to try!"
"Who can argue with that?"
"And this Dewy Cherry Blossom Iced Tea, one sip and it cools you from your throat to your heels, you'll want another cup after just one!"
"I heard that Boss Tang is a food-type Soul Master. How did he develop these Soul Skills?"
"...."
Tang San was holding a small notebook, diligently writing something down. When he saw everyone return, he looked up and smiled, "Brother, Dad, you're back."
"How's the situation, mistress?" Tang Chuan asked.
"Very good!"
Tang San wiped the sweat from his forehead and pointed to an empty table in the corner: "I specially reserved a seat for the two seniors."
"Brothers, please have a seat."
"Here's the ledger, brother. You take a look at it first. I'll go get some food."
Tang San took two notebooks from the counter and handed them to Tang Chuan. The notebooks were filled with detailed records of the sales volume of various types of barbecue and the number of cups of iced tea.
"You've had a tough time, mistress!"
Tang Chuan patted him on the shoulder, then turned to Su Pang and Su Shou and said, "Brothers, please take your seats first. I'll have Xiao San bring out all the food in the restaurant. Please give me your feedback and suggestions."
"Hehe, then we won't be polite!"
Fatty Su plopped down and pointed at the menu on the table, saying, "First, ten Black Gold Bear Paws, five catties of Exploding Flame Tiger Tenderloin, and ten cups of Star Dew Passion Fruit Tea!"
"Just a little bit, just to try."
Su Shou shook his head helplessly and added, "Little Food God's opening today is so popular, we must be unprepared. Don't let it hinder Little Food God's business."
"It won't affect anything, it won't affect anything."
Tang Chuan smiled and waved his hand: "I'll go to the backyard and use my soul skill to make another batch in a bit."
"You two brothers don't know yet, do they?"
"My second soul skill, Blue Silver Weaving Hundred Body, created a clone that can exist for a quarter of an hour. The clone can use my other soul skills and has no soul power limit."
While explaining to Fatty Su and Skinny Su, Tang Chuan asked Tang Hao and the Dragon God and Snake Goddess to sit down.
"You all sit down, I'll go help the mistress."
Chao Tianxiang shook her head and walked towards the counter.
Tang Hao waved his hand in return: "Xiao Chuan, you two chat. Dad just dealt with a group of troublemakers, and I'll go over there to clean up the mess."
"Me too."
Long Gong Meng Shu said, "I'll go outside to maintain order. Xiao Chuan, you and the two Your Majesties enjoy your meal."
After saying that, the three of them left.
Tang San carried an iron tray and served dishes, including roasted black bear paws, braised black bear ribs, pan-fried antelope leg meat, steamed cake made from earth vein heart vine, honey-brewed cloudberry box, passion fruit and bellflower salad... a whole table full of various dishes.
After making four or five trips, Tang San replenished the iced tea and leaned over to Tang Chuan: "Brother, at this rate, our supplies might not last until closing time tonight."
"Business at the Great Soul Arena is also booming."
"Golden millet crisps are almost out of stock."
"There's also refreshing lotus seed tea."
"Unexpectedly, the most popular item in the Soul Arena is the Refreshing Lotus Seed Tea; it's in such high demand that we can't keep up with the demand, and we didn't prepare much to begin with..."
"Okay, I understand."
Tang Chuan nodded and invited Fatty Su and Skinny Su to try the barbecue and iced tea.
Over the next three days, Tang's takeout business became increasingly popular, attracting not only residents of Soto City but also Soul Masters from surrounding towns who made special trips to sample the food.
Some traveling caravans also placed orders for large quantities of roasted meat and iced tea.
After all, it's good quality and inexpensive.
Tang's takeout business is currently limited to the area around Soto City and Notting City. If they move to a more distant town, they can make a hundred times the profit.
Tang Chuan and Tang San were so busy they barely had time to breathe.
Fatty Su and Skinny Su also joined in to lend a hand, while Tang Hao stood guard outside the store, dealing with any thugs or hooligans who tried to cause trouble.
Oscar and Zhao Wujie from Shrek Academy also came to the store to help with deliveries.
After the shop closed, the lights were turned on in the backyard.
Tang Chuan, Tang San, Tang Hao, and Su Pang and Su Shou sat around in the small courtyard pavilion, while Long Gong, She Po, Dugu Yan, and Meng Yiran also sat on the side.
The ledger was spread out on the stone table.
Tang San's face was full of surprise: "Brother, you figured it out!"
"In just three days since opening, after deducting all labor costs, our net profit alone has reached 200,000 Gold Soul Coins, and many caravans have also used rare ores and medicinal herbs to settle their debts..."
"After conversion, the total value is at least 500,000!"
"So much?"
Fatty Su's eyes widened: "Good heavens! Little Food God, your income is equivalent to the annual income of many Soul Master families!"
Although Tang Chuan had anticipated that business would be good, he had not expected the profits to be so considerable.
"Business is booming."
"However, manpower is indeed becoming increasingly scarce. Everyone is so busy every day that they don't even have time to rest. Relying on our current staff is not a long-term solution."
We need to hire people as soon as possible!
"Ideally, they should be Soul Masters, who can handle both security and delivery."
"But what about Soul Masters..."
Before Tang Chuan could finish speaking, everyone understood his meaning: Soul Masters held a prestigious position, so why would they do such menial work?
