Wow! My wife is beautiful and obedient, everyone envies her!

The head of the family, Qi Yuan, wanted to raise Davis but couldn't afford it. Davis never looked at the price when buying things since he was a child, and he always picked out the best items.

Qi Yuan, though slightly wealthy, could afford to support them; but a super-rich man couldn't.

Therefore, Qi Yuan took Noah's suggestion of taking care of him as a joke.

While counting the money, Xiu had already cooked three bowls of noodles.

This is a bowl of seafood noodles.

There were more shrimp than noodles, and two blanched green vegetables added a nice touch.

Seeing that they had already counted the money, Xiu asked, "How much did you earn today?"

“Fifty-three thousand two hundred and sixty-two,” Qi Yuan replied.

Qi Yuan was quite satisfied with this income.

The restaurant has two floors and can accommodate 180 tables.

However, since there were only 150 usable clay pots, the remaining 150 would not be delivered to the Robinson family for a few days.

Once those casserole dishes arrive at the restaurant, the tables will be 100% full.

In addition, the average spending of today's guests was around 200. If it weren't for Andrei and his group's spending, the revenue would have been around 40,000, since Andrei and his group spent more than 10,000.

Of course, they didn't actually spend over 10,000 yuan on food; the reason they spent over 10,000 yuan was because they ordered a few bottles of wine that cost around 3,000 yuan each.

If it's just meat alone, there are over 10,000 pieces. Even if Andrei brought 20 more people, they would still be sick of eating it.

When Noah heard about the income, he praised, "You earned so much on the first day, Yuan is really amazing."

"How can this amount possibly cover anything?" Xiu frowned slightly, looking somewhat dejected. "We can't just look at this amount of money; we need to look at today's expenses."

"The first expense is charcoal."

"Today's charcoal usage, based on price, should have cost more than three thousand yuan."

"The second expense is food ingredients."

"The beef, vegetables, seafood, rice, fruit, and seasonings all added up to about 23,000 yuan."

"The third expense is labor costs."

"There are currently 32 employees in the restaurant. Each person is paid 300 yuan a day, so the labor cost is 9,600 yuan a day. There are also other miscellaneous expenses such as water, electricity and heating. Today's expenses alone are more than 30,000 yuan. After deducting all of these, we only made more than 10,000 yuan today."

Noah scoffed, “Earning ten thousand a day, that’s three hundred thousand a month, isn’t it? That’s much more than I expected. Sera told me she used to only earn thirty thousand a month.”

"The Milne family's low income is due to the fact that they have been running the restaurant for many years and the dishes are not particularly fresh or special, so there are few customers. When their restaurant first opened, the net profit in the first month was 800,000, and they earned more than 80,000 on the first day. It only gradually decreased afterward."

"How do you know how much they made?" Noah looked at him warily.

Xiu said, "My family used to have a chef who worked there, and he told me about it. Back then, the Milne family mainly made beef and cod burgers, along with steak and desserts. They had a high table turnover rate, and the burgers could be taken away. Even when eating steak and dessert in the restaurant, the average customer's dining time was about 45 minutes. But for our hot pot restaurant, the average customer's dining time is one hour and thirty-five minutes. The dining time is too long, resulting in a low table turnover rate. So, even though our restaurant is full of customers today, we're actually not making much money."

"In addition," Xiu continued, "there are only so many people in Juecheng. Not everyone is willing to spend more than 200 yuan every day to eat hot pot. Moreover, people will want to try something new after eating the same thing too often. We can earn more than 10,000 yuan today, but this situation can only last for about seven days. After seven days, the number of customers may gradually decrease. It is probably not possible to earn 300,000 yuan a month."

Xiu analyzed the restaurant's situation in great detail.

Even if Qi Yuan were opening a restaurant for the first time, he could understand the analysis.

Seeing Qi Yuan's 'I understand' expression, Xiu asked, "Yuan, we shouldn't be doing the tasting tomorrow, right? Since you've already decided to advertise in the newspaper, there's no need to do the tasting anymore."

Qi Yuan shook his head, "The tasting booths will always be there."

"Why? The beef we gave away for free today could sell for several thousand yuan." Xiu said excitedly.

Qi Yuan said, "It's okay to earn a little less, as long as it's not a negative income."

"...Ah Yuan, you're too kind, aren't you?" Xiu didn't know how to retort.

Qi Yuan raised his eyebrows and looked at him, but did not speak.

Actually, it wasn't Qi Yuanshan.

He also likes money.

However, he was a time traveler.

Having been in this world for five years, Qi Yuan still doesn't understand why he came into this world.

According to the typical plot of most time-travel novels, the protagonist must die in their original world before they can travel to another world.

However, nothing related to death occurred.

On the contrary, it was the original owner of this place who hanged himself, which brought him here.

Qi Yuan had actually thought about it.

Will there come a day when he wakes up from a nap and finds himself back in his original world?

He felt no sense of identity or belonging in this world.

Having served time in prison and witnessed much evil, he felt that people only need to live happily and don't need to have too many meaningless pursuits.

Xiu thought that he was too kind and foolish for giving away meat for free at his food tasting stall.

But only he knew that he was furious that he had to return to his original world before he could even spend the money he had worked so hard to earn.

Furthermore, although he was reluctant to admit it, he was indeed being supported by Noah, and he had everything he wanted, and it was all the best. This greatly reduced Qi Yuan's pursuit of money.

Qi Yuan's only requirement for the restaurant now is that it can make money. Therefore, Noah bears a great deal of responsibility for preventing him from becoming a profiteer.

Seeing Qi Yuan's truly indifferent and desireless demeanor, Xiu thought to himself that he couldn't change Qi Yuan's mind with his own ideas, after all, the two of them had different things.

Even if the restaurant loses money, Noah will support Qi Yuan, so it doesn't matter what happens to the restaurant.

the next day.

Qi Yuan said he wouldn't go to the restaurant to keep an eye on things, and he really meant it.

Seeing that he was engrossed in writing something at his desk, Xiu put down his book and asked, "Ah Yuan, do you want me to go and keep an eye on the restaurant for you? It's only been two days since it opened, and you're not going? What if something happens?"

"If you want to go out and stroll around, then go ahead. I can go out, so you can go out whenever you want."

Qi Yuan could tell that Xiu wanted to go outside for a walk. Although Noah asked Xiu to play with him, Qi Yuan was not a child and did not need someone to accompany him the whole time.

Having his thoughts read, Xiu smiled and said, "I really want to help you look at restaurants."

"Go if you want to," Qi Yuan said.

Xiu stood up and said, "Alright, I'm going out now. I'll definitely take good care of the shop for you! I'll make you tens of thousands today too. Oh, by the way, Yuan, give me 50,000 yuan. I'll stop by the newspaper office on my way to talk about advertising."
