Chapter 6: Over 4,000 RMB in Morning Sales! Youyou’s Performance – Inviting Teacher Rong Shuang to Dinner? 

After the elderly customers left, the office workers finally recovered enough to stagger out, leaning against walls for support.

At the neighborhood entrance, the seniors spotted some neighbors preparing for their morning card game.

“Where’d you get those buns? Some discount sale?”

The first grandmother who’d bought the buns answered, “No discounts. Small business pricing – pay per bun. But they’re delicious, you should try them.”

“Oh? For you to actually spend money on street food, they must be special.”

“I’ve already eaten breakfast. Maybe later.”

“Stop chatting and deal with the cards already!”

The card-playing group remained absorbed in their game, showing no interest in trying the buns.

“Philistines,” muttered the bun-converted seniors as they hurried home.

Jiang Feng checked the time – 6:45 AM.

“Come on Youyou, time for kindergarten.”

“Aww Dad, can’t I stay and help at the shop instead?”

“No.”

Sniffle “Pleeease Daddy?” The little girl deployed her ultimate weapon – watery puppy-dog eyes.

Jiang Feng flicked her forehead gently. “You can stay all weekend at the shop, deal?”

“Yay!” Her mood instantly brightened.

As Jiang Feng prepared to close temporarily, the noodle shop owner from next door approached. “Heading out?”

“Yeah, kindergarten run. Why?”

“Got a sudden craving for your buns. Any left?”

“Ten fennel-pork ones remaining.”

“I’ll take them.”

After packaging the buns and completing the mobile payment (“Alipay received: 30 yuan”), the man introduced himself: “Name’s Cui Hao. Since we’re neighbors now, let me know if you need anything.”

“Jiang Feng. I’ll get Youyou to school first – enjoy the buns, Brother Cui.”

Back at his noodle shop, Cui Hao’s wife complained, “Why buy more? I told you I’d make dinner!”

Cui Hao smiled. “Single dad with a little girl – we should help out. Besides, wanted to try them. Here, have one…”

At 6:53 AM, Jiang Feng arrived at the kindergarten gate where Teacher Rong Shuang greeted him with a soft smile. “Early today, Youyou’s dad.”

“You’re early too – appreciate your hard work.” After exchanging the pickup card, Jiang Feng left directly for the wholesale market to restock.

The morning’s numbers stunned him:

269 buns sold

774 RMB revenue

Far exceeding expectations

This time, he purchased in bulk:

5kg beef (discounted 1 RMB/kg)

5kg pork (0.5 RMB/kg discount)

5kg scallions (72 RMB total)

Returning to the shop, he found Cui Hao waiting impatiently. “Finally! Another 10 pork-scallion buns, quick!” The noodle shop owner had devoured only 3 of their shared 10 buns earlier – his wife ate seven.

Two middle-aged women from the neighborhood also waited, having heard the rave reviews.

“10 fennel-pork here!”

“7 chive-egg and 8 pork-scallion – hurry, my husband needs breakfast before work!”

Jiang Feng smiled apologetically. “Right away, everyone.”

Business remained brisk until nearly 9:00 AM when the breakfast rush finally subsided. Jiang Feng tallied the morning’s results:

Inventory Used:

5kg beef → 308 beef buns

4kg pork → 241 fennel-pork + 223 pork-scallion

All scallions consumed

1/3 chives/fennel remaining → 350 chive-egg buns

7.5kg carrots → 370 carrot-egg buns

8.5kg eggs

37kg flour

13.5kg peanut oil

Financials:

Gross revenue: 3,887 RMB

System points earned: 4,838

Estimated net profit (after hypothetical rent/expenses): 3,000+ RMB

Four hours of intense labor left Jiang Feng’s back and arms aching, but there was no time to rest – lunch prep began immediately.

Meanwhile at kindergarten during snack time…

While teachers distributed peeled pomelo, Youyou stealthily approached Teacher Rong recording hygiene logs.

“Teacher…”

“Yes, Youyou?”

“My daddy opened a new shop. Can you come eat with us?”

Rong Shuang blinked in surprise. “He… what happened to being a stay-at-home dad?”

Youyou activated award-winning sad eyes. Sniff “Mommy and daddy got divorced yesterday. She took our house and all the money, so daddy has to work and take care of me now.”

“Divorced? But why? Was there…” Rong hesitated, “…some problem with your mother?”

Youyou sighed dramatically. “Dunno.”

Rong crouched to eye level, stroking the girl’s hair. “How about I visit after work tonight? We’ll eat at your daddy’s shop together.”

“Yay! Daddy only sells buns right now… you won’t mind, right?”

Rong laughed softly. “I wouldn’t mind even if he sold dirt, Youyou.”
