Chapter 137 Small profits, quick turnover!
"Really?"
"You can drink ale like this?"
"Sounds interesting, let's give it a try!"
"Boss, I'll have a glass of ale too!"
"I'll have two cups, and another one of Dewy Cherry Blossom Iced Tea. I want to try mixing them like him!"
Suddenly, a small queue formed in front of the previously deserted beer stand. The owner was stunned for a moment, then his face lit up with a smile.
Alright!
"Here's your beer, please take it."
"Don't rush, take it one at a time!"
He deftly dispensed the drinks and collected the money, a wide grin spreading from his lips to his ears.
He, who had been frowning just moments before, now sounded excited: "Ale is refreshing, iced tea is thirst-quenching, thank you all for coming!"
At the nearby Tang's Iced Tea stall, employees shouted, "Iced tea with beer, double the fun! Everyone is welcome to try it!"
Soon, customers who tried the combinations gave feedback.
A middle-aged Soul Master took a sip of the mixed iced tea, his eyes lit up, and he shouted to his companion, "This combination is amazing!"
"Ale mixed with iced tea, with a hint of fruitiness, is so refreshing!"
"Really!"
"While beer was refreshing, there wasn't much to fuss about in terms of taste. But when you mix it with iced tea, the flavor is absolutely amazing!"
The message spread like wildfire through the crowd.
More and more customers flocked to the beer and iced tea stands, and the beer vendors' businesses boomed again. They sold beer barrel after barrel, and their smiles never stopped.
Inside the Arena.
The Tang's Iced Tea stalls in the aisle were extremely busy.
The third batch of Golden Millet Crisps was snapped up as soon as it arrived, with many customers surrounding the stall asking, "Boss, do you still have Golden Millet Crisps?"
"Don't rush, don't rush!"
"The restock will be here soon. Here's a passion fruit crunch to tide you over; it tastes pretty good too!"
The staff reassured the customer while quickly packing the food.
The customer reluctantly handed over the money: "Hurry up, my child loves your golden millet crisps."
"Almost there!"
"It will be delivered in about fifteen minutes. I'll reserve two portions for you then, is that alright?"
"Boss, three more cups of Passionate Firethorn Tea, please!"
Before the customer could reply, a burly, power-attack type Soul Master slammed his hand on the stall counter and shouted, "We still have two boxes of Flaming Pepper Fragrance Meat Jerky. The more you chew, the more fragrant it becomes. Perfect for eating while watching the match!"
"They're here! They're here!"
The employee quickly packed the items and replied with a smile, "Iced Tea is on a buy-one-get-one-free offer today for our grand opening. You have six copper Soul Coins, and I'll give you four cups of Passionate Firethorn Tea and two boxes of Fiery Pepper Jerky. How does that sound?"
"Deal!"
"Here are ten copper Soul Coins for you, and give me two boxes of Flaming Pepper Jerky!"
After handing the shop assistant ten copper Soul Coins, the burly Soul Master couldn't help but exclaim, "Your stuff is really cheap!"
"The ingredients are high-quality, and it's much more cost-effective than buying dried meat strips."
"Small profits, quick turnover!"
The employees in blue and white uniforms responded with a smile: "Our boss said that Tang's Takeout is not about making money, but about letting everyone enjoy more delicious food."
"After deducting costs and labor, we don't make any money at all!"
"Please take this carefully, it's hot!"
The burly Soul Master took the takeout bag and shouted to his teammates, "Hey guys, come here quickly. This iced tea is mixed with ale. Let's go buy a few glasses of ale and try them later."
Not far away, several teenagers were gathered around the stall.
"I'd like a serving of Water Sprite Lotus Crystal Jelly and a cup of Star Dew Passion Fruit Tea!"
"Give me three servings of golden millet crisps!"
A girl with a ponytail said urgently, "I've been waiting for half an hour! Give me one first, give me one first! I want ten servings of Golden Millet Grass Crisps!"
The employee took a stack of cardboard boxes from the newly delivered boxes and handed them over: "We have everything."
"We just delivered a hundred portions of golden millet grass chips, and people are still going back to pick them up. Another batch will be delivered in less than 15 minutes."
As soon as one stall sold out, another stall in the aisle was also selling like hotcakes.
A speed-attack type Soul Master who had just finished a Soul Battle squeezed to the front of the stall: "Give me five servings of Flaming Peppered Pork Jerky!"
"I was starving just now. Your jerky is really filling and energizing, much better than the dry rations I brought!"
"Okay!"
"Five servings of dried meat, would you like some iced tea?"
The blue and white uniformed employee took five boxes containing spicy and savory meat jerky from the glass cabinet, packed them up, handed them over, and asked questions.
"Six cups, please!"
"I'll bring some for my teammates too."
The agility-type Soul Master nodded, took out a handful of copper Soul Coins from his pocket, and handed them over: "Thirteen copper Soul Coins, right?"
"These are more than enough."
"You count them."
"No need to look for more."
After saying that, the agility-type Soul Master picked up a stack of iced tea cups and carried the packaged dried meat to the back side of the Soul Arena.
Inside the shops on the commercial street.
Oscar, who came to help, held up a cup of Star Dew Passion Fruit Tea, smacked his lips, and said to Tang San, "Little San, your business is booming!"
"This iced tea tastes amazing!"
"And these barbecued meats and snacks are even tastier than my first soul skill, the giant sausage. Is your brother really a food-type Soul Master?"
Oscar, eating a skewer of grilled bear tendon, asked Tang San with a puzzled look.
"Of course!"
While busy serving iced tea to the guests, Tang San proudly replied to Oscar, "As long as you praise my brother, then we're good friends."
"Can the Blue Silver Grass martial soul make so many delicious foods?"
"Really?"
Oscar still couldn't believe it. When did the Blue Silver Grass martial soul become so strong? Xiao San's martial soul was the top-tier plant-type Blue Silver King, so it was no surprise that it was strong.
But the food-type Blue Silver Grass...
"My brother's martial soul is the Blue Silver Emperor?"
"Don't you know?"
Tang San asked a question in return, and then handed the iced tea and snacks that he had prepared in the storage room to the Soul Arena employee who came to pick up the goods.
"It's incredibly popular!"
"Young boss, the Soul Arena has sold out several times already. If this continues, we'll have to send more people!"
The employee who came to pick up the goods wiped his sweat and said as he carried the wicker basket containing the iced tea on his back.
After finishing speaking, without waiting for Tang San's response, he picked up two boxes containing snacks and fruit platters and walked out, afraid of delaying business.
He receives a share of five copper Soul Coins for each delivery.
That's quite a lot for a day!
Just then, Qian Renxue led the Serpent Spear Douluo and the Porcupine Douluo into the commercial street. When she saw the line of people queuing under the sign of "Tang's Iced Tea & Tang's Takeout", a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes.
"Elder Pufferfish, what's all this commotion up ahead?"
"Your Highness, I'll go take a look."
The medium-sized Porcupine Douluo responded in a low voice and walked towards the crowded entrance to inquire about the situation.
"Um."
Qian Renxue nodded, standing still and watching. She wore a moon-white brocade robe, a faint smile on her lips, pretending to be a gentle and refined gentleman.
She originally came today to investigate the impact of the Soul Fighting Competition on Soto City's business, but seeing such a lively scene aroused her interest.
