Doomsday B&B

After the youngest child took his little hot pot home, he carefully followed the instructions and began to operate it. His level of seriousness was something that the other children at school could only dream of.

After completing all the steps, he sat there stiffly, staring intently at the clock on the wall.

He watched the clock hands tick by, the time passing second by second. Fifteen minutes later, he picked up the chopsticks with lightning speed, opened the box, and a powerful aroma instantly filled his nostrils, making him even more eager to try what was inside.

He took a deep breath; the aroma grew even stronger. He picked up a piece of sausage with his chopsticks, put it in his mouth, and gently bit down. The chewy texture instantly captivated him, and he unconsciously quickened his chewing. Just as he finished the sausage and was about to pick up a second piece, someone came down from upstairs and asked him:

"Little one, what are you doing? It smells so good!"

"Boss, this is what those people sell. I bought one, you should try it too, it's really, really delicious."

"Youngest brother, you're being unfair! Why are you only letting the eldest brother try it?"

At this moment, the second brother walked in from outside the door, following his words.

“I’m not being biased. I didn’t even see you just now, so how could I let you try it?”

"May I try some?"

"Go ahead and try it."

Then the eldest brother sat down expressionlessly, took the chopsticks handed to him by the youngest brother, picked up a piece of sausage, and put it in his mouth. The moment he bit down, although his face was still expressionless, if you looked closely, you could see the light flashing in his eyes.

Then he started eating one bite after another with his chopsticks. The youngest brother was anxious, but he could only watch helplessly and dared not say anything. It was the second brother who spoke up to stop him, saying:

"Boss, can you stop? I haven't even had a taste yet!"

"what......"

The eldest brother remained expressionless, but his ears were red. He handed the chopsticks to the second brother and said:

"Try it, youngest brother. Come on, take me over to see it, and I'll buy you another one."

Then he stood up, grabbed the youngest child, and walked outside.

When he pulled his youngest child out, he immediately saw the changed RV. He let go of the child's hand and walked over. Seeing that his hand had been released, the youngest child quickened his pace.

Jian Lei was still sitting there alone. When he saw the boss come in, he asked him:

What do you need to buy?

Are these all for sale?

"Yes."

"How do I buy it?"

Jian Lei explained the points system and the points redemption machine again. The eldest brother took out a gold bracelet from his pocket, redeemed it for points, and then said to the youngest brother:

"Pick another one, and add a bottle of water."

After much deliberation, we couldn't decide what to choose, so we each grabbed one of each flavor of mini hot pot, totaling five, and also five different flavored drinks, just enough for everyone.

The youngest son saw that he already had one and wanted to stop choosing, but unexpectedly, the eldest son said to him:

"You can choose. You spent your points to buy something, but we ate it. Pick one as compensation for you. The one I have here is my treat for everyone."

"it is good."

After agonizing for a long time, he still couldn't decide what to buy, so he asked Jian Lei:

Which type of sausage has the most of these?

"You just came here to pick out sausages?"

"Correct."

Seeing that the youngest son answered very seriously, Jian Lei thought for a moment and asked him:

"Do you want the sausage, or the sausage from the hot pot?"

"What difference does it make?"

"If you only want sausages, I have individually packaged sausages that I can sell to you. If you want sausages for a hot pot, I can find you a sausage-themed hot pot."

"Can I see the sausages individually?"

"Okay, please wait a moment?"

Jian Lei pretended to rummage around behind his back, then pulled out a bunch of sausages of various colors and said to the youngest son:

"These are individual sausages. You can take a look, or you can buy one to try first. Individual sausages are very cheap. The price of a small hot pot can buy more than 10 of these sausages."

As Jian Lei introduced the sausage to Lao Yao, he pointed to the smallest sausage inside and told him.

"Then I'll buy one of these to try first."

"Row."

So, with Jian Lei's help, the youngest brother fed himself the sausage. After finishing it, he said to the eldest brother:

"Boss, can I exchange the hot pot for sausages of the same price?"

"Of course, it's up to you."

"Boss, could you help me choose? I need five of each kind of sausage, and you can pick whatever else you like, as long as the total value is the same as the hot pot."

"Row."

"Okay, that's all. Here's a bag for you."

Jian Lei packed the items into two bags before paying them.

After settling the bill, Jian Lei watched the two leave. At that moment, Jian Xinling came out and asked Jian Lei:

"Brother, is it open for business yet?"

"Yes, those are the people who locked us up yesterday."

"Oh fine."

Then the person transformed into a cat and lay on the bar counter, staring blankly in one direction.

After a while, Qi Yun also came out. Looking at the items in the display case, she said to Jian Lei:

"Since you prepared these things yourself, let's split the profits. You take 7%, the system takes 1%, and I take 2% as rent."

"Boss, isn't this inappropriate?"

“It’s okay. Starting today, everyone will sell for one day, using their own goods. That’s how it works.”

"Okay, boss, I'll have Tuantuan set up the corresponding program."

Ling'er, I want to go for a walk, do you want to come?

"Meow."

Then Qi Yun's shoulder slumped, and a cat appeared.

Qi Yun then took Jian Xinling for a stroll around.

While the two were strolling around, their RV experienced a mini-sales surge.

The reason was that when the eldest brother and his friends were having hot pot at home, someone happened to come over for a visit and was immediately attracted by the irresistible aroma of the hot pot.

After waiting patiently until they finished eating, I asked them to take me shopping.

And so it went, from person to person, with waves of people coming and going in front of the RV, continuing for at least two hours before it finally stopped.

Despite the constant flow of people, the crowds didn't seem to get too tired. By the time Qi Yun and the others returned, Jian Lei had already filled out the counter for the fifth time, which showed just how enthusiastic everyone was.

Qi Yun, upon learning this, said:

"That's good too. We can develop other businesses sooner, upgrade our RVs sooner, and then continue operating our bed and breakfast."

Where is Sister Qi Huan?

"She hasn't come out yet?"

"Alright, let's eat then. Let her eat by herself later."

At this moment, Qi Huan came out.
