The end of the world: I am linked to a mobile lottery store

Chapter 502 Opening!
"Of course you can, it's up to you. Anyway, the food will be served automatically as soon as the customer orders, you don't need to do anything about it. You can sit in the back and play on the computer or sleep, as long as nothing happens." Lu Li shrugged and said matter-of-factly.

Upon hearing this, Liu Xinru leaned over and said, "Yes, restaurants like ours are very easy to manage, basically requiring no intervention. I suggest you add an explanation on how to order by scanning a QR code."

She's also a restaurant owner, so she's quite experienced in this area.

At first, I didn't know how to order. New customers would always ask me how to order, and why I couldn't see the kitchen.

She used to have to explain for a long time every time, so she eventually made these explanations into a sign and hung it on the wall.

If anyone asks, she'll point to the wall and say, "See for yourself, she's really talked herself hoarse!"
Chen Zhiyu humbly accepted the advice and decided to ask more questions and observe more in the future, as these were all senior figures.

The three of them chatted for a while about their experiences in opening a shop, which greatly boosted Chen Zhiyu's confidence.

We've decided to open immediately!
Lu Li naturally expressed her support and immediately chased away Shen Bing and the others, telling them not to occupy the table.

Shen Bing and the others returned to their respective shops. After Lu Li paid, the leftover food, bowls and chopsticks, used tissues, and trash on the table were all gone.

Even the oil splatters, chili flakes, Sichuan peppercorns, and star anise that had splashed onto the table were gone, and the whole table looked brand new.

She explained, "We must make sure customers finish eating before paying, so that we can trigger the one-click cleaning function. See, it looks like it's never been used."

Chen Zhiyu has learned a lot. She had previously wondered how she would wash the dishes and chopsticks, where to take out the trash, and whether she could manage all that by herself if there was no kitchen.
Just as Manager Liu and Boss Lu said, there was no need for me to do anything; I could just sit and play.

Customers enter the store, scan a QR code to order, eat, and pay after they finish. There are even people to clear away the tables.

Chen Zhiyu was completely relieved and looked around the lobby on the first floor; there were dozens of tables.

Oh right, I haven't been to the second and third floors yet.

As soon as she spoke, Lu Li took Liu Xinru's hand with one hand and her hand with the other, and the three of them went up to the second floor together.

The layout is the same as the first floor, while the third floor has private rooms and a large hall. It's nice, similar to a hot pot restaurant.

The three of them toured the entire Sichuan restaurant and returned to the first floor. Lu Li nudged Chen Zhiyu.

He gestured for her to open the door so that they could welcome the customers.

Chen Zhiyu took a few deep breaths to prepare himself mentally before solemnly stepping forward and opening the door.

It was around 2 p.m. when there were many customers coming to play scratch-off lottery tickets, and many customers also went to the nearby vegetable market.

In short, there were a lot of people.

They had long been curious about what was inside the giant chili pepper, but with the door tightly shut, they dared not make any rash moves.

As the door opened, someone boldly asked, "What new shop is it this time?"

Chen Zhiyu gathered his strength and announced loudly, "Sichuan cuisine restaurant, welcome to try it! Grand opening discount of 12%!"

This was something I just discussed with Boss Lu; after all, it's a new store opening, so we should offer some kind of perk.

In the past, during civilized times, this was done to attract customers; now it's purely for the benefit of the people.

After all, there's no need for any attraction; once the door is open, customers come on their own.

Many customers outside, upon hearing that it was a Sichuan restaurant, felt their DNA kick in.

These legs, seemingly out of control, rushed over, and the person asked incredulously, "A Sichuan restaurant? A place that serves Sichuan food?"

After asking, he excitedly told the person next to him, "Did you hear that? It's a Sichuan restaurant! It's a Sichuan restaurant!"

Chen Zhiyu affirmed, "Yes, a Sichuan restaurant!" He even emphasized the words "Sichuan cuisine."

She thought to herself that this person was probably from the same hometown as her in the civilized era, both from the Sichuan-Chongqing region.

Otherwise, why would I get so excited when I hear about Sichuan cuisine?

When fellow villagers see their old vegetables, their eyes well up with tears.

Chen Zhiyu stepped aside to make it easier for everyone to enter. "Please come in quickly. You can order by scanning the QR code on the table, or circle what you want on the menu and drop it into the drawer next to the table." People poured in one after another, and in less than half an hour, the first-floor hall was full.

Seeing this, Chen Zhiyu directed everyone to the second and third floors, as he had initially worried that the rooms wouldn't be full.

But now they're worried there won't be enough seats, so anyone with a few crystal cores wants to come in and taste the saltiness.

She had also checked the prices; five crystal cores would be more than enough for one person.

On average, it costs about five crystal cores per person, which is similar to the price at a hot pot restaurant.

It could even be said that all of LuLi's stores offer these affordable prices, striving to ensure that everyone can enjoy delicious food and fun activities.

When only Boss Lu and Manager Liu were in the store, she asked if they would lose money by offering such low prices.

Lu Li patted her chest and assured her, "Don't worry, not only will we not lose money, we'll even make a profit. I'm not a philanthropist, how could I do such a losing business?"

Chen Zhiyu was relieved, as long as he wouldn't lose money.

Thinking of this, Chen Zhiyu shouted enthusiastically, "Come and eat! Come and eat now!"

An hour later, the first, second, and third floors were completely full.

Seats are full.

Lu Li, Liu Xinru, and Chen Zhiyu leaned against the front desk, looking with satisfaction at the crowded first-floor lobby.

Chen Zhiyu felt extremely satisfied, never expecting the seats to be filled so quickly.

Liu Xinru nudged Chen Zhiyu with her elbow to the left, "Let me interview you, how are you feeling right now?"

He even deliberately stretched out a hand, made a fist, and brought it to her mouth, making sure to project a strong presence.

Lu Li was on the far side, and Liu Xinru was in the middle. She also curiously peeked out to take a look.

Chen Zhiyu blinked, coughed twice, and chimed in, "Happy, excited, we'll definitely make it bigger and stronger!"

Even at this moment, she didn't forget to flatter, and Lu Li enjoyed it, patting her on the shoulder across Liu Xinru, "Keep it up~"

Chen Zhiyu smiled, and Liu Xinru belatedly followed suit, patting him on the shoulder, "I also want to make it bigger and stronger!"

Lu Li laughed at her, "Okay, you do a good job too." She also reached out and patted her on the shoulder.

The three of them met eyes and burst into laughter at the same time.

Lu Li watched the Sichuan restaurant for a while longer. The process seemed fine, and everyone enjoyed the meal.

So she left feeling reassured.

I can't help but walk into the market when I see it; it's quite fun to browse around.

But when they came out, they were carrying large and small bags, and their faces showed satisfaction.

Indeed, spending money is the simplest and most enjoyable thing, regardless of the amount.

Lu Li returned to the lottery shop and threw herself onto the sofa. Before she had been lying down for long, Old Shen called.

"Boss Lu, has anyone won a bank card?" Old Shen asked knowingly.

"No, don't worry, it will happen sooner or later," Lu Li said, offering only perfunctory words of comfort.

Then he added, "But a new Sichuan restaurant just opened. How about I treat you guys to a meal?"

Old Shen responded quickly, as if afraid that if he hesitated even a second, Lu Li would regret it, "Okay, see you tonight!"

Lu Li: She began to doubt the purpose of Mr. Shen's phone call.

That evening, Elder Shen arrived with He Luo, Xiao Yu, Liu Peng, and Zhang Ye (the director of the research institute).
