Living in Tokyo, starting with a lifestyle-related job

Upon hearing this, Kana Kawai was somewhat surprised and appreciative.

I didn't expect Bai Feng to be so generous.

If it were anyone else, they might be doing what this takoyaki shop owner did: complaining to him or trying to find an opportunity to lower the rent.

Why would someone as young as Kamishiro, who is only a first-year high school student, reply so casually and then leave?

This surprised her quite a bit.

It's unclear whether he or the takoyaki shop owner is the mature adult.

Chapter 118 Shiro Kaede: Will we win? Nagasawa Yui: We will win!

2024-07-14

Not a moment.

The signboard has been completely installed.

Shiro Kaede had intended to treat the workers to a meal.

But they all said they still had work to do and left quickly.

Upon hearing this, Bai Feng did not try to persuade him to stay.

at this time.

He looked up at the "Blue Eden" sign above and couldn't help but feel a little emotional.

I'm finally all set up, so I should be able to open the shop tomorrow.

Looking at the name, Nagasawa Yui slowly nodded in praise:

"This designed 'Blue Ende' is very good, very beautiful, and it lives up to my discerning eye."

Seeing that he had finished his work, Yoshio Kataoka decided to take his leave.

"If you are satisfied now..."

"Then I'll take my leave now."

"If you need anything in the future, you can contact me directly."

Kana Kawai continued the conversation:

"Yes, my situation is similar to his."

"If there's nothing else, I'll take my leave now."

Jindai Bai Feng suggested:

"It's all here."

"Why don't you stay and get something to eat?"

Kana Kawai remembers that Shiro Shiro's coffee was delicious.

She wanted to try it again.

However, considering that Kamishiro-kun's shop was not yet open, I didn't ask.

But since Bai Feng has said so, she won't refuse.

Kana Kawai didn't hide her thoughts and smiled:

"After drinking Kamishiro-kun's coffee yesterday."

"I wanted to have it one more time."

"Since you say so, I will respectfully comply."

After thinking for a while, Yoshio Kataoka nodded in agreement.

After all, he was already somewhat curious about the identity of this God-Slayer.

If we could find out which millennia-old corporation headquarters is protecting him.

That way, we can use it to develop certain specific topics and acquire business.

However, to be honest, he had just learned about the situation on this street from the takoyaki shop owner.

I'm also very curious why Kamishiro-kun would open a shop in this place?

Because no matter how you look at it, opening a shop here is bound to result in a loss.

He had also seen what happened to the takoyaki shop owner.

Throughout the entire day, it's fair to say that not a single customer came to make a purchase.

Even under such an absurd circumstances, Kamishiro-kun, who is only a high school student, actually took over this place and even raised and adjusted the prices of the entire menu.

All these circumstances combined mean that even if Kamishiro-kun didn't have the background of the Millennium Group headquarters, he would still be interested in this.

Yoshio Kataoka politely replied:

"Since Ms. Kawai has agreed, it would be unreasonable for me to leave like this."

"Then I shall respectfully comply."

Shiro Kaede smiled slightly, revealing a knowing look on his face, and then gestured for them to enter the store.

Nagasawa Yui, beaming with joy, thought to herself that she could finally start eating, and went inside first.

soon.

The three of them sat down at the bar.

Shiro Shiro took out three menus prepared by Yoshio Kataoka and handed them to the three of them, asking:

"Just tell me what you'd like to order."

"Of course, we've run out of ingredients for some of the dishes, so right now we can only make pasta, fried rice, risotto, sandwiches, and the like."

Kana Kawai took the menu, glanced at it, and immediately widened her eyes in surprise, saying:

"A regular cup of black coffee costs 700 yen?"

"Hey, isn't this price a bit too high?"

"The prices are significantly higher than other coffee shops in the shopping street."

Yui Nagasawa was also taken aback upon hearing this, but after looking at the menu, she was completely dumbfounded and exclaimed:

"Chocolate cake for 1200 yen?"

"Tomato spaghetti for 2000 yen?"

"Kamishiro-kun, are you serious about this pricing?"

"I remember this coffee shop used to charge around 350 yen for a cup of coffee, didn't it?"

"Tomato spaghetti is also around 1000 yen!"

"You've doubled your money now?"

"Although some high-end coffee shops are more expensive than this, there are coffees that cost one or two thousand yen."

"But considering the situation of your small shop, isn't this pricing a bit too high?"

Kataoka Yoshio knew the man was right; the price was indeed a bit high. Curious, he asked:

"Kamishiro-kun, what was your ideal per capita spending again?"

Kamidai Bai Feng explained:

"Around 3,000 yen per person."

As the head of the advertising department, Yoshio Kataoka had been to many places for social engagements, and coffee shops of all sizes were places he frequented.

He had seen other coffee shops with similar average prices, including the one that Kamishiro-kun mentioned.

But those are all relatively well-known coffee shops.

Based on the scale and decoration of this Blue Eden coffee shop, the average cost per person in such a coffee shop is usually around 1500 to 2000 yen.

Therefore, the average price of Kamishiro-kun has increased by about 30% to 50%.

If it's expensive coffee beans, then I wouldn't mind the price.

However, if it's regular coffee beans, the price is negotiable.

Kataoka Yoshio is very eloquent and persuasive, which is why he has risen to his current position as head of the advertising department.

He has now expressed doubts about the price.

But they won't say it out loud.

As for his pricing for the dishes, around 2,000 yen per serving, this price is reasonable for someone with a high income like him.

To use the example of the Ichiran Ramen shop I just passed by.

The ramen there also costs around two to three thousand yen per person.

It's fair to say that this price isn't a big deal for most office workers.

However, this price is a bit too expensive for the average student.

Kataoka Yoshio suddenly remembered that there was a very famous private Shujin Academy nearby, and that Kamishiro Hakufu was also a student at this school.

Could it be that he deliberately raised the price to prevent students from making purchases?

Instead, they're targeting nearby office workers?

Thinking of this, Yoshio Kataoka became interested and asked curiously:

"Kamidai-kun."

Does your coffee shop target students?

Shiro Shiro shook his head: "No."

Kataoka Yoshio, with an "I knew it" look on his face, said, "Just as I thought."

Yui Nagasawa retorted, "There are so many students around here. Even though they don't come here often, aren't you planning to treat them as customers, Kamishiro-kun?"

Kana Kawai was also a little confused and asked, "Why doesn't Kamishiro-kun plan to include the students? Can you explain why?"
