Chapter 229 College Student Buying Guide
At first, the group was quite reserved, only daring to use their chopsticks to pick up food from the dishes closest to them.
As we got to know each other better, we relaxed.
The twice-cooked pork was stir-fried until it resembled a lamp, the potatoes with eggplant, green peppers, and potatoes were fried until crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, the shredded pork with fish-fragrant sauce was glossy and savory, and when paired with a crispy on the outside and soft on the inside scallion pancake, it was a satisfying and filling meal.
Chen Yuan was also tired, so he ate quite a bit.
I had just filled my stomach when my phone rang.
When he opened his phone, he saw that not only were his old customer groups flooded with messages, but he was also receiving constant push notifications from various platforms.
Entries are popping up one after another.
#A purely vegetarian breakfast shop transforms its food truck and lands at Xinghui Night Market#
#Breakfast becomes a life-saving miracle for college students#
How strong is the queuing discipline of contemporary college students?
The comments section is full of photos from the scene.
As Chen Yuan flipped through the pictures, he showed them to the older women and didn't forget to praise them.
"Look, these college students are really well-behaved. I was too busy this morning to notice, but now that I look at them, the line is neat and orderly, and they're not making any noise."
The other older women echoed this sentiment.
Aunt Li laughed and said, "That's right, these college students are all very polite. They keep calling me 'Auntie,' asking me to add some chili oil or something, and they even say thank you."
At this point, Aunt Li felt a little embarrassed and whispered to Sister Zhao beside her.
"There was also a college student who, I don't know if he didn't see me clearly or what, called me 'sister'."
Everyone laughed.
Chen Yuan scrolled through the messages again and found that the sound he had just heard was from Su Qingxue.
"Hey senior, let me tell you, your store is incredibly popular. You know what? This morning, right after you sold out, Kyoto University sent out a buying guide for university students. It's really interesting. I'll send it to you; it's even been pushed to me. Our school is also planning to release a buying guide in the same format."
[From Peking University: First, queue in an orderly fashion, following the white lines on the ground. No cutting in line or grabbing food for others. Second, decide what you want before ordering. The vendors are fast, so try not to rush them; the more you rush, the more chaotic things will become. Third, after you finish eating, clean up the bamboo skewers and paper bags and throw them in the trash can. A university student's manners are reflected in your words and actions. Fourth, if you have an early class, it's recommended to arrive early to avoid affecting your class.]
Just as Chen Yuan was about to reply to Su Qingxue, Su Qingxue sent him another picture.
[Senior, this was sent by the university. They even hand-drew a map of the queue and marked the locations of food pickup points and trash cans.]
[And this was sent by the medical school, which even noted that those who stay up late shouldn't eat on an empty stomach, but should have a bowl of hot porridge to soothe their stomach, and thoughtfully included what to eat to replenish qi and blood, and what to eat for a weak spleen and stomach. They're amazing!]
Chen Yuan quickly replied to the message.
[I saw that. As the president of the student union, are you feeling a lot of pressure right now? Seriously, aren't college students these days a bit too competitive?]
[It's definitely stressful, but I'm no longer the president, so I've stepped down perfectly. Let the new president handle these things and give him a good headache.]
Su Qingxue typed much faster than Chen Yuan, sending messages one after another.
Reply to me at this time: Have you had lunch?
I just finished up here. Do you have time this afternoon? Let's go check on the renovation progress together.
I have a lot of things to finalize with you this afternoon, let's meet at the new store later.
No, no, I want to go to Xinghui Night Market to check out your food truck first. Should I go see the food truck first, or go to the new store area first? Which route is more convenient for you?
Chen Yuan now has boundless patience with Su Qingxue, and he answers every question carefully.
I took a picture of the table and sent it over.
[I brought my staff here for dinner. This place is delicious; I'll bring you next time. Let's go to the new store first, and after we're done, we can grab some coffee or milk tea. In the evening, we can check out the food trucks at the night market, and I can take you there too, okay?]
Of course! That's great, we'll be waiting for you!
After finishing their meal, Chen Yuan first escorted the women back to their residential compound.
I also took a look at the old shop that had been burned black.
During the inspection, a bold idea suddenly popped into Chen Yuan's mind.
"Why don't we just leave this shop unrenovated and move to a new one?"
But the idea only flashed through my mind.
After all, this is the flagship store, the place where the dream began. Chen Yuan has developed a deep affection for this house and the old neighbors around it.
Furthermore, he is now single-handedly driving the development of the entire street's shops. If he were to suddenly move away, wouldn't that be unethical and unfair?
As Chen Yuandong was looking around, he heard light footsteps behind him.
"Boss Chen! Boss Chen!"
Chen Yuan turned around and saw Lu Xingye.
She was wearing a super short skirt, and her two long, straight legs, as straight as a highway, were very eye-catching.
Even passing dogs would take a second look.
As soon as Lu Xingye approached, he launched into a tirade: "You've only been gone for two days, and I've already realized how important you are. My customer traffic has dropped by almost half."
"I heard you're at the Star River Night Market. That's a shame. It would be great if you sold at night. I could just set up a stall next to yours and make some extra money."
"By the way, is everything alright on your end? I heard that it will take at least half a month to clean up your place, and the electrical wiring and everything else will need to be reinstalled."
Chen Yuan laughed and said, "There's nothing I can do about it; it's an undeserved misfortune. But speaking of setting up a stall, I do have some ideas."
Chen Yuan's words were not unfounded. Ever since the system gave him the recipes for making pickled vegetables and chili oil that morning, he had had this idea.
Lu Xingye quickly pressed for details, and Chen Yuan explained. However, the joy on the other person's face suddenly vanished, and he pouted.
"I thought it was something good. If you're making pickled vegetables or chili oil, why would you need to set up a stall? You could just sell out right there on the stall."
Chen Yuan thought about it and agreed, so he temporarily gave up the idea.
After exchanging a few words, Chen Yuan hurried off to his date.
The two went for coffee in the afternoon and spent a leisurely afternoon and evening.
After returning home, Chen Yuan didn't rest either.
As soon as I entered and put down my clothes, I asked, "Mom, have you prepared everything I asked you to?"
Wang Xiulan came out of the kitchen.
"Of course everything is prepared. Would I not prepare it for you? I bought four large basins just for holding pickled vegetables. The big ones are big enough for Youyou to bathe in, so it will definitely be enough for you."
"And the cucumber strips, cowpeas, and other things you wanted, and the beef was also good quality. I asked your Aunt Wang to help me buy the chili peppers; she knows people at the market who can get good ones."
"Oh, right, you told me to go to the fruit stand to buy watermelon rinds. What do you need those for?"
