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

Chapter 78: Chapter 78: Birthday Cake



"They arrived in the middle of the night, why did you just bring them over here, at least let them rest for a day!"

Chen Yu frowned slightly, the eight girls all looked worn out, with two of them even having red eyes, clearly not having had a good night's sleep.

Chu Hong also felt a bit embarrassed, "I didn't pull them over, they came on their own, saying they wanted to make a good impression on you."

Chen Yu raised an eyebrow, "Have you all eaten anything?"

All eight girls shook their heads in unison, they indeed had come in a bit of a hurry.

After thinking it over briefly, Chen Yu said, "Li Yu, Su Qing, Zhang Qian, you three take four of them, grab the raw ingredients, and head to the second-floor kitchen to make deep-fried cakes and vegetable pastries!"

"Make it the same quantity as I gave you before, and prepare breakfast for these eight as well!"

Li Yu nodded and hurriedly led people upstairs.

"Han Cai, you take two, in charge of cleaning both floors of the hall, the rest come to the first-floor kitchen."

Yesterday's supply of semi-finished deep-fried cakes and vegetable pastries was already running low.

The demand for these two items was huge in the morning, and now the turnover had increased by so much.

Chen Yu was still a bit worried if the seven of them could handle it all.

Chu Hong and Zhao Meng began teaching them how to use those machines.

Sure enough, just as it turned five in the morning, a flood of takeaway orders came pouring in.

The two new girls in the first-floor kitchen immediately jumped into action.

It wasn't that they had become familiar with the machines, but they were extremely fast at packing.

From the way they worked, they must have done this before, either in a restaurant or somewhere else.

Grabbing bags, filling them with food, sealing them, sticking on delivery slips, all their movements were fluid and uninterrupted, leaving Chen Yu somewhat astonished.

Adding eight people had immediately highlighted the effect.

At least it was no longer as chaotic as yesterday.

By six o'clock, although the restaurant was crammed with delivery riders, everything was still running smoothly.

It was also at this time that Zhang Fan and Xie Jiang brought over the custom-made machinery and pressure cookers.

Chen Yu quickly moved these items into the kitchen.

But the kitchen space was indeed a bit cramped now, at most only capable of accommodating one more set of machinery and five pressure cookers.

However, this was sufficient!

Chen Yu took the remaining two dough mixers to the second floor.

That way, the seven girls wouldn't need to carry flour in buckets from the first floor anymore.

[System notification: Three sets of machinery have been activated, the current total credit balance is 2,224,480 points.]

Chen Yu felt a bit depressed at that moment; one set of machinery had cost him 100,000 credits, and three sets were a whole 300,000.

But he wasn't concerned about the credits for now, as, considering the current turnover, he was averaging hundreds of thousands of credits per day.

Until twelve noon, the entire store was operating in an orderly fashion.

Tong Ya had intended to go down and help, but with the chaos in the store now, she was worried about Tuan Tuan.

She only went out to buy some strawberries and oranges at eight in the morning and hadn't left the room since.

At this moment, the two beauties, one big and one small, were sitting in the room watching TV.

"Mum, do we really not need to go down and help Dad?"

"No need, eight new sisters came today, so they should be able to manage."

As she spoke, Tong Ya fed Tuan Tuan an orange.

Suddenly, Tuan Tuan leaned a little closer to Tong Ya, looking up with her big watery eyes, staring straight at Tong Ya.

"Mom, I want to ask you a question. Will you ever suddenly leave Dad one day?"

Tong Ya was stunned for a moment, "Why would you ask that?"

Tuan Tuan pursed his lips, "The mom before was bad. She abandoned me for her own sake, so I'm worried…"

Tong Ya quickly cradled Tuan Tuan's little face, "Don't worry! I will never leave Dad! And I've said it before, we two should spoil him together, right?"

Tuan Tuan happily clapped his little hands, "Then let's go order a super large birthday cake now!"

Tong Ya was stunned again, "Order a birthday cake for what?"

"Today is May 24th, it's Dad's birthday!"

Tong Ya suddenly gaped, she actually didn't know her own man's birthday.

"Why didn't you say so earlier? Let's hurry! If we order now, we can still get it by tonight."

Tong Ya hurriedly changed clothes, picked up Tuan Tuan, and went straight downstairs.

At that moment, there were indeed quite a few people in the store; Tong Ya struggled a bit before she could squeeze out of the shop and reach the parking lot next door.

It wasn't until around three in the afternoon that the flow of customers in the shop gradually decreased.

It was the perfect lull between lunch and dinner.

Even though there were still many takeaway orders, Chen Yu could steal a brief break.

He stretched lazily and headed straight upstairs.

Upstairs in the kitchen, it was a scene of bustling activity.

The two dough mixers were running non-stop. Apart from Li Yu, who was watching the deep fryer, the other six girls were each carrying a bucket of dough and quickly making the semi-finished products.

They seemed to have grown skilled, and the pace at which they made these semi-finished products was nearly catching up to Su Qing's.

That morning, not only had they perfectly supplied the fried cakes and vegetable dumplings, but they had also turned half of the raw materials into semi-finished products.

With another afternoon's worth of work, all the raw materials in the cold storage were going to be transformed into semi-finished products.

"How did you feel this morning?" Chen Yu asked, leaning against the kitchen doorway.

One of the girls, named Jiang Yao, looked up, "Pretty good, just like making dumplings during the New Year back in our village."

Li Yu also chuckled, "In any case, today has been much easier than yesterday!"

Chen Yu didn't say much more, just gave them a thumbs-up and went back downstairs.

By eight in the evening, Chen Yu directly called it a day.

After all, the marinated meats were sold out, and the sales of fried cakes and vegetable dumplings had sharply declined at that time. There was no need to extend the business hours.

The more people there were, the faster the cleanup went.

[Congratulations Host for completing a day's business. Today's net profit is three hundred eighty thousand six hundred Yuan. You've earned three hundred eighty thousand six hundred points, totaling two million six hundred twenty-three thousand eighty points.]

Chen Yu took a relieved breath; his efforts throughout the day had not been in vain.

After placing an order for ten thousand kilograms of pork, he transferred the remaining money to his savings account, leaving only six hundred Yuan for himself.

He glanced subconsciously at his savings account, which now had three million one hundred fifty thousand Yuan.

He was one step closer to his goal!

Today's staff meal was much more lively than before.

However, Chen Yu couldn't help but slap his forehead, he still needed to figure out the accommodation issue for the eight new girls.

"You'll have to bear with it and squeeze in together again tonight. I'll find Auntie Li tomorrow to rent two more rooms."

But to his surprise, the girls shook their hands in refusal.

"There's no need, Brother Yu. We're fine squeezing together like this. The conditions here are already much better than where we used to work before."
