After divorcing my celebrity wife, I became the world's richest person

Chapter 15: Chapter 15 A Larger Facade



The food cart was already fully equipped with cooking tools, and together with today\'s purchased stuffing ingredients, there was a total of 140 pounds.

In just about ten minutes, Chen Yu had the stuffing ready.

Then he used sixty pounds of flour to make the dough for the specialty dish.

By just after four o\'clock, Chen Yu had produced six hundred half-finished specialty dishes.

As Chen Yu was marking the price of five yuan each for the specialty dish on the blackboard, the square dancing uncles and aunties had already begun to arrive in droves.

"Hey, young man, have you added something new today?"

Chen Yu smiled, "Yes, just launched a secret recipe specialty dish!"

"Wow, a secret recipe specialty dish! And it costs five yuan each? Other places sell their specialty dish for just one yuan each!"

"I\'ve used special ingredients, so it\'s a bit more expensive," Chen Yu didn\'t explain too much. After hanging the blackboard, he went back into the food cart.

To be honest, the specialty dish at five yuan each was indeed pricey. The uncles and aunties were still habitually buying the fried cakes.

"Hey, Old Chen, you\'ve set up your stall already!"

Zhang Fan, carrying a backpack and accompanied by his daughter, found a familiar table and sat down with ease.

"The usual, give me thirty fried cakes to take away!"

No sooner had he spoken, Zhang Fan saw the new specialty dish added to the blackboard.

"What\'s in this specialty dish? Five yuan each!"

"Secret recipe specialty dish! Want a couple? It\'s on the house," Chen Yu was generous, taking two of the specialty dishes and dropping them into the oil.

Zhang Fan had indeed done him a great favor; giving away two specialty dishes was no big deal.

"Oh, I couldn\'t possibly accept that! I insist on paying!"

Zhang Fan immediately took out his phone and transferred the money for the specialty dishes as well.

Chen Yu was helpless, but as he was busy, he couldn\'t decline.

When the specialty dishes were fried and ready, their unique aroma immediately filled the area around the food cart.

"It smells so good! What on earth is this specialty dish made of? It\'s incredibly fragrant!"

"It\'s a totally different flavor from the fried cakes!"

"Sigh, if this young man\'s fried cakes are so delicious, then of course his secret recipe specialty dish is different!"

...

At this moment, Zhang Fan was utterly conquered by the fragrance of the specialty dish, and he bit into one without hesitation.

"Oh my goodness! What is this? A heavenly specialty dish? It\'s so delicious, scrumptious! Forget five yuan each, even ten yuan each would be worth it!"

Zhang Fan\'s daughter, Luo Luo, was also drawn by the fragrant smell and took the other specialty dish.

After one bite, Luo Luo jumped up excitedly.

"Uncle Chen\'s specialty dish is so yummy, Daddy, I want more!"

Zhang Fan, not caring whether he could finish it all, took out his phone again and transferred another fifty yuan.

"Old Chen, give me ten more! I\'m taking them home for my wife!"

"Alrighty!" Chen Yu responded and began to fry ten more specialty dishes.

"For real, is it that delicious?"

A middle-aged woman drew closer and pulled out her phone, ready to pay. "Give me two to try too!"

"Auntie, today is the first day of the trial opening for these vegetable pockets, and we only have a little over five hundred. Starting now, we\'re limiting purchases to one per person!"

Upon hearing this, those in line instantly became restless.

At first, they thought the price was a bit expensive and had no plans to buy, but when they heard Chen Yu mention the limit, plus Zhang Fan\'s expression and the unique aroma of the vegetable pockets, the men and women were suddenly impulsive.

"Young man, let me buy ten more sugar cakes from you so that I can get another vegetable pocket!"

Chen Yu shook his head, "I\'m really sorry, sir, but today the vegetable pockets are just for a trial sale. They will be available without limits starting tomorrow!"

The old man looked regretfully at the half-eaten vegetable pocket in his hand, "I was even thinking of getting one for my grandson. Sigh! I can only wait until tomorrow!"

In truth, Chen Yu also wanted to sell all six hundred vegetable pockets, but since it was a new product, he had to save some for Tuan Tuan and Tong Ya to try!

By five o\'clock in the afternoon, Tong Ya drove up in a white sedan with Tuan Tuan and parked next to the food truck.

"Wow, there are even more people here today than yesterday!" Tong Ya exclaimed in surprise, quickly taking out an apron and gloves from the car and intuitively rushing into the food truck.

The apron and gloves were something she bought especially at noon; the ones inside the truck were a bit too large and weren\'t comfortable when she wore them the past two times.

Tuan Tuan also set up a table, took out paper and pen, and sat down skillfully.

"Ah, isn\'t that the lady teacher from yesterday? Why is she wearing a mother-child outfit today? She couldn\'t have gotten together with this young man, could she?"

Tong Ya blushed and her heart thumped at the comment, but she didn\'t bother to clarify and adeptly packed food for the customers.

Chen Yu seemed to have already gotten used to such teasing, and having Tong Ya by his side gave him an inexplicable sense of comfort.

So he just kept making fried cakes and vegetable pockets, not responding or explaining.

Tong Ya stole a glance at Chen Yu, then immediately suppressed all her emotions.

"Wow, there\'s a new product today, huh?" Tong Ya asked subconsciously, trying to divert her attention.

"Right, I specially saved some for you and Tuan Tuan!"

Tong Ya\'s heart skipped once again!

However, Tong Ya was indeed busier today, occasionally needing to restock the sales fridge from the semi-trailer parked nearby.

By nine o\'clock at night, all the fried cakes and vegetable pockets were sold out, with a turnout even more sensational than the day before.

"Boss, you\'re closing up shop already? Any more fried cakes? It\'s hard to find something to eat late at night here for those of us staying overnight."

The internet café youths, who had already bought fried cakes and vegetable pockets, came back only to seem somewhat dejected.

"Sorry, they\'re all sold out!" Chen Yu apologized.

"Then we\'ll come back around four-thirty in the morning! Boss, your fried cakes are absolutely top-notch, they not only invigorate us but also help us achieve the highest score of the venue!"

After the group of internet café youths left, Chen Yu and Tong Ya had already jointly cleaned up the food truck.

[Congratulations Host on perfectly concluding a day\'s business, today\'s net profit seventeen thousand five hundred yuan, accumulated points seventeen thousand five hundred! Your total points now stand at twenty thousand seven hundred twenty-eight point five!]

Hearing the system\'s prompt, Chen Yu immediately felt that his hard work throughout the day had not been in vain.

With the system there to calculate net profits and points, Chen Yu didn\'t worry excessively, simply checking his account balance and the cash on the counter.

He now had a total of thirty-one thousand seven hundred yuan in hand!

By these calculations, he was getting closer to his goal of buying a house.

However, Chen Yu glanced at the food truck behind him, then at the row of storefronts in front.

Maybe it was time to rent a bigger storefront!

Today, while working, he clearly felt that the food truck was quite cramped, and besides, he didn\'t have a good solution for the charging issue of the food truck!
