Living in Tokyo, starting with a lifestyle-related job

“I have to go out on Sundays, and I have to open the shop after get off work at other times, so I probably won’t have much time to come to your house for dinner.”

"So let's just forget about it."

(＞﹏＜)ヽ

Shiina Shoko shook her head frantically, pleading:

"It doesn't take any time."

"My home is not far from the school."

"Saturday lunch break is also fine."

Shiro Kaede paused:

"But it seems I didn't do anything."

Why did your mother invite me to dinner?

"I...I don't know either." Shiina Shoko was also a little confused, shaking her head timidly, her eyes looking at Bai Feng with a mixture of expectation and worry: "Then...can you go?"

Kamishiro Shirofumi sighed softly:

"Saturday noon."

"It's not impossible."

Shiina Shoko's face immediately lit up with a smile, and she laughed happily:

"Okay, it's a deal then."

Before Bai Feng could reply, she happily ran back to her class.

ε=ε=ε=┌(*▽*)┘

Seeing this, Shiro Shiro smiled helplessly and then returned to his class.

He had barely sat down when he immediately heard someone greeting him.

Chitanda Mirai tilted her head slightly and smiled sweetly:

"Good morning, Kamishiro-kun."

Junko Urahara also turned to look at Shirafumi. Although she didn't say anything, she nodded emphatically to say good morning.

"Good morning, Chitanda-san and Urahara-san," Kamishiro Hakufu replied.

And at this time.

Sitting in front of him, the usually aloof Maki Mizuno slowly turned around, hesitatingly greeting him:

"Good morning, Kamishiro-kun"

Although Shiro Kaede was somewhat surprised, she simply thought it was a polite greeting and didn't think much of it, replying:

Good morning, Mizuno-san.

Chitanda Mirai asked curiously:

"By the way, how was your business yesterday, Kamishiro-kun?"

Kamdai Bai Feng smiled and said:

"not bad."

"In a day, I earn about 24,000 yen."

"It's much better than working a regular job."

Chitanda Mirai paused for a moment after hearing this, then smiled sweetly:

"Indeed."

She knew that in addition to the rent, the shopping street also had costs for ingredients and other hidden expenses.

If you only make 24,000 yen a day, you're actually losing money.

After all, the average office worker earns at least 300,000 yen a month.

After deducting rent and other hidden costs, Kamishiro-kun...

Based on a daily rate of 24,000 yen.

That would probably only bring in tens of thousands to over a hundred thousand yuan in income.

This level of income is probably not even as high as what you'd earn working a regular job.

If we also deduct the labor costs of Kamishiro-kun himself, then we'll probably end up losing money.

However, the only good thing is...

Kamishiro-kun took over the coffee shop with virtually no money.

Therefore, no money was spent on the initial decoration, equipment, tools, and other expenses for opening the store.

In this situation, Kamishiro-kun really didn't spend much money.

It's like starting a business with no initial investment.

That's a good thing.

But if Kamishiro-kun really spends money on renovations and equipment to open a shop, given his current income, she'll probably have to find ways to prevent his shop from closing down so quickly.

As for now, there's not much I need to worry about.

However, I wonder if the people in the shopping street have started construction yet.

Let me ask you a little bit.

Chitanda Mirai took out her phone and tapped a few times.

Not a moment.

Suddenly, Shiro Kaede's phone rang.

He took out his phone and saw that it was a call from Kana Kawai, the manager of the shopping street.

"Hello, Ms. Kawai, is there anything I can help you with?"

A somewhat bewildered voice came from the other end of the phone: "Yes, it's about the thing I told you about yesterday."

"Hmm, what's wrong?"

"After I had someone check it this morning, I found that your attic has some safety hazards and needs to be rectified."

"Hmm? Is that so?" After pondering for a moment, Shiro Shiro replied, "Then just follow the renovation plan for the shopping street. Let me know how much it will cost later."

The voice on the other end of the phone kept saying no: "No need, no need. Since this is a structural problem, our shopping street will cover the cost of fixing it."

Shirofumi pondered for a moment and said, "I see. How much time will it take? If possible, can it be resolved in the next few days?"

"It won't take more than a few days, it's just a minor issue. You should be able to get it sorted out before you open the shop today."

"oh, I understand now."

"If there's nothing else, I won't bother you any longer, Kamishiro-kun."

"OK Bye Bye."

After hanging up the phone, Shiro Shiro noticed that Chitanda Mirai was looking at him with a curious expression.

"what happened?"

"It's nothing." Chitanda Mirai shook her head and smiled.

Chapter 132 What kind of immortal brother is he?

2024-07-14

During lunch break.

Class 1-B.

After Erina Kamishiro and her friends sat down together, they took out the bento box that Shirafuji had made, opened it, and prepared to eat lunch.

But just a few seconds after it was opened, the classroom was filled with a mouthwatering aroma.

"Wow, it smells so good!"

"Where is that smell coming from?"

Many students couldn't help but swallow after smelling the aroma. Following the scent, they immediately discovered that the fragrance came from the bento box in Erina Kamishiro's hand.

Erina's closest friends are the first to smell the fragrance.

"Wow, Erina, your bento boxes smell so good lately. Just smelling them makes them look delicious."

"Yes, I think so too. Can I try some later?"

Fujiyama Harumi also nodded and said:

"It smells so good too."

"Erina, I want to try some too!"

"Of course!" Erina flashed a sweet smile that she would never show at home, pushing the bento box in front of her. "Try it, it's delicious."

After her best friends tasted it, they all covered their mouths, widened their eyes, and exclaimed in surprise:

"Wow, this is delicious! It tastes even better than the beef at the fancy barbecue restaurants my dad takes me to."

"How did you make this? It tastes so good!"

After savoring the delicious and tender beef in her mouth, Fujiyama Harumi was also amazed:

“It’s really delicious.”

"If I remember correctly, this was made by your adoptive brother, Erina, right?"

"I remember you let us try his cooking before, and it wasn't this delicious back then."

"Why does it seem like his cooking skills have gotten so much better lately?"

Erina Kamishiro was poised and graceful, with a kind smile on her face.

"I'm not quite sure about that."
