In Douluo Continent, what is a martial soul? It's like Luckin Coffee.

Chapter 95 I'm planning to open a Mixue Ice Cream shop

The shop owner slunk away, packing his bags and leaving.

Not only that, in addition to compensation, he also has to pay for the money Xiao Bing spent on hitting him.

Bai Ran: How dare you try to use your face to bump into my Xiao Bing's fist! You deserve to be punished!

Hyotei: Haki White, are you even human? If you were ten thousand years in the future, you'd probably be hanging from a lamppost and swinging on it.

What? You're asking about compensation for the students.

One credit will be awarded to each student who faints?
Anyway, Bai Ran wasn't quite sure, so she waited for the academy's follow-up decision.

……

"Brother Bai Ran, I heard you've taken over a small shop in the academy?"

As soon as Meng Hongchen returned home in the evening, she curiously looked at Bai Ran and Xiao Bing standing beside her.

Even though she was in class in the afternoon, Meng Hongchen still heard about Bai Ran and Xiao Bing's heroic deeds.

Although I know that Xiaobing is the Ice Emperor and has great fighting power.

However, the fact that he was able to crush a Soul King with only a Soul Power level of 35 still shocked Meng Hongchen.

Is this the power of ultimate attributes? Challenging opponents ten or twenty levels higher is as easy as eating and drinking.

"Yes."

This incident caused quite a stir; even my uncle found out about it.

He almost scolded Bai Ran, not because he caused trouble, but simply because Bai Ran hid behind and let Xiao Bing face a Soul King directly, which was simply ridiculous.

"Is Bai Ran's younger brother planning to open another coffee shop?"

"Nothing."

Bai Ran shook his head. There's only so much coffee that can be made each time. Even if we opened another Luckin Coffee shop, we still wouldn't be able to supply it all. Why bother?

"Are you planning to continue running the small supermarket business?"
Do you have a source of goods? Do you need my help?

In Meng Hongchen's view, Bai Ran was unfamiliar with the Sun Moon Empire and was so young that he would easily suffer losses if he did business with those cunning merchants.

"No, no, no, I don't run a convenience store either."

Bai Ran shook her head again.

"So what are you planning to do with it? Are you just going to leave it as a game?"

No matter what, the annual rent for that piece of land where the convenience store is located is nearly ten thousand gold soul coins.

Even though Meng Hongchen was a wealthy woman, she still felt that Bai Ran's actions were a little extravagant.

Moreover, the college certainly wouldn't just stand by and watch the convenience store remain empty.

If Bai Ran doesn't open the shop, it's estimated that someone else will take over the store in a few days.

After all, the students at the academy still need this service.

"I'm planning to open a Mixue Ice Cream shop."

What is Mixue Ice Cream?

"Mixue Ice Cream is..."

As Bai Ran spoke, a glass of lemonade and an ice cream appeared in his left hand.

"Sister Meng, please try some."

In a sense, apart from Xiao Bing and Da Mao Mao, no one else has ever tasted Bai Ran's second martial soul. (Gu Yue Na secretly tried it.)
"What is this? And it's ice?"

Compared to lemonade, Meng Hongchen was more interested in the fresh ice cream produced by Xue Wang.

With the development of Soul Guidance Technology, the people of the Sun Moon Empire can now enjoy popsicles even in the sweltering summer.

But the popsicles that ordinary people ate were either frozen sugar water or simply regular ice. As for the nobility, they would add honey, milk, or fruit to their popsicles.

But this was the first time Meng Hongchen had ever seen something like an ice cream cone topped with a layer of creamy ice cream.

If it weren't for the coolness, Meng Hongchen would have thought it was some kind of oddly shaped cream cake.

As the ice cream touched her lips, Meng Hongchen felt a rich milky aroma, sweet and soft, melting in her mouth with a gentle touch.

Unlike traditional popsicles, this so-called ice cream contains absolutely no ice crystals, making it taste far superior.

"Bai Ran, are you planning to sell this in your new store?"

After taking a bite of the ice cream cone, Meng Hongchen asked again.

The ice cream cone is crispy and delicious, and has an eggy aroma, somewhat similar to the flavor of an egg pancake.

"Yes."

"How much does it cost?"

Although the weather isn't hot yet, Meng Hongchen would not hesitate to buy one if it were for dessert.

"Two copper soul coins."

"Two gold soul coins, that's not expensive..."

"Wait, Bai Ran, what did you say?"

Meng Hongchen: What is Copper Soul Coin? Is there such a currency?
For Meng Hongchen, who was born with a silver spoon in her mouth, the smallest denomination of currency in her storage ring was 1 gold soul coin.

As for currencies with a face value smaller than Gold Soul Coins, wouldn't it be a waste of space to store them in a storage ring?
"This ice cream costs two copper soul coins? Really?"

Ah, is this the legendary people's ice cream?

Meng Hongchen was somewhat unwilling to believe it.

Moreover, an ice cream costs 2 copper soul coins, while the school store's daily rent exceeds 30 gold soul coins. How many ice creams would they have to sell each day to break even? (And that's without even considering other expenses.)
"Yes, that was Snow King's original intention: to make it possible for everyone to drink cheap milk tea and eat affordable ice cream."

Bai Ran: Okay, the main difference is that, unlike Luckin Coffee, these two Snow King products don't have any beneficial effects. They only quench thirst and relieve heat.

Based on his impressions before his transmigration, Bai Ran priced the chilled lemonade at 4 copper soul coins, while the fresh ice cream was sold at the original price of 2 copper soul coins.

"So, how much are you planning to price this glass of juice?"

After finishing her ice cream, Meng Hongchen inserted the straw along the Snow King icon on the rim of the cup and took a big gulp.

And you know what? It's a perfect balance of sour and sweet. After a heavy meal of meat and fish, a bite of this is sure to cleanse your palate.

"4 gold soul coins?"

Upon seeing Bai Ran hold up four fingers, Meng Hongchen subconsciously guessed.

Ice cream is no longer profitable, so if this juice doesn't make a profit either, wouldn't it really become a charity?

"4 Copper Soul Coins".

"Cough cough~"

After Bai Ran finished speaking, Meng Hongchen was suddenly choked.

Immediately afterwards, Meng Hongchen's slightly cool right hand rested on Bai Ran's forehead.

"He doesn't have a fever."

"I'm very good."

"Bai Ran, did something happen to you?"

4 Bronze Soul Coins?
Even at the other two convenience stores in the academy, grabbing a drink from the shelf would cost more than 4 copper soul coins.

Meng Hongchen suddenly suspected that Bai Ran was trying to squeeze out the remaining two convenience stores and eventually make him the only one in the business.
