Chapter 198: Chapter 175: Ready to Make a Move

’Hmm... Compare Xu’s Fast Food Restaurant to Yipin Xiang Fast Food Restaurant, and the latter gets completely KO’d!’

His gaze fell back to the flyer. Seeing the menu for the next few days, Peng Kaiqun suddenly had an impulse. ’If the quality from Xu’s Fast Food Restaurant stays this consistent, maybe I should recommend them to the admin department. See if they can get Xu’s Fast Food Restaurant to supply our employee meals? If it doesn’t pan out, it’s no loss to me. But if it does, I’ll get to eat lavish meals every day!’

A group of people slowly gathered at the neighboring table. They were also discussing the matter of Xu’s Fast Food Restaurant supplying employee meals, and they all seemed quite tempted by the idea.

「At the Xu’s Fast Food Restaurant stall.」

As more and more people arrived to buy boxed lunches, Xu An could no longer handle it alone. He found a spare moment to call Wang Datou and tell him to hurry over and help. Not two minutes after hanging up, Wang Datou appeared at Xu An’s side as if he’d traveled over mountains and through rivers, ready to fight alongside him. It took them nearly two full hours to sell every last boxed lunch, and only then could the two of them finally sit down for a moment’s rest.

Even though the boxed lunches were gone, people kept coming over to ask if there were any left. This forced Xu An to take out a marker, write the two words "SOLD OUT" in large letters, and place the sign on the stall. Only then did things finally quiet down.

’Two people selling five hundred boxed lunches is a bit much,’ he mused. ’It’d take at least three to handle the rush. But the insulated food cart only has two seats. How would a third person get here? Stuffed in the cargo bay?’

Xu An shook his head, clearing the bold, unreliable, and impractical idea from his mind. ’Forget it. There are only four days left. Wang Datou and I can just tough it out.’ He patted Wang Datou’s shoulder and said in a clear voice, "Master Wang, I’ll need to trouble you to help sell boxed lunches here at the stall for the next four days. It’s not an easy job, so for these five days, I’ll pay you a triple wage."

"Thank you, boss!" Wang Datou didn’t hesitate and accepted immediately, his eyes narrowing into slits as he beamed. ’This boss is great! He actually pays you for the work you put in! I’m so glad I listened to Guosheng and came to work here!’

Xu An hadn’t been quiet, and even in the noisy hall, his voice carried clearly to the ears of Wang Fulong and his apprentice. Upon hearing his words, the two couldn’t help but exchange a look, their eyes wide with surprise. ’Getting paid extra for doing work for your own company during normal hours? That’s unheard of!’

They were baffled by this, but with a steady stream of customers coming to buy boxed lunches, they had no time to dwell on it. They simply put on a smile for the next customer and dove into another wave of work.

「Xu’s Fast Food Restaurant.」

At two o’clock, only two or three customers remained in the restaurant, chatting away under the fans. Things had quieted down for the staff, who were starting to clean up and prepare to close for the day. Suddenly, a slender figure appeared at the entrance, her face full of curiosity as she surveyed the inside of Xu’s Fast Food Restaurant. ℯℯ𝘭.

"I’m sorry, we’ve already sold out of all our food for the day." Xu Heping, who had just come over from the second shop, saw the young woman standing at the entrance and quickly told her the news.

"I’m not here to eat." The young woman shook her head, looking at Xu Heping with curiosity. "Are you the owner of Xu’s Fast Food Restaurant?"

"No, I’m not. Why are you looking for the owner?" Hearing her question, Xu Heping sized up the young woman. She had the distinct air of an office worker. ’She doesn’t look my age, so she’s not a classmate. I know all of Anzi’s relatives, and she’s not one of them. So why is she here looking for Anzi?’ Alarm bells started ringing in Xu Heping’s mind.

"I’m the new employee the owner hired, responsible for marketing and planning," the young woman explained openly. "I’m here to report for my first day. I sent the boss a message, but he hasn’t replied to me yet."

’Hmm... Anzi never mentioned this to me!’
