Full-Time Magister: You're selling soul beasts in Shanghai?

Chapter 55 The New Cook, Three-Eyed Golden Lion King Qiu'er

Magic City.

As soon as Xu Beichen returned to the restaurant, he noticed that the number of people in line was even greater than before.

That makes sense; with Pang Lai as a living advertisement, the number of mages attracted to him would naturally increase dramatically.

"A single store is too inefficient."

Seeing the long queue that resembled a winding dragon, Xu Beichen couldn't help but start making plans.

If Xu Beichen wants to open a chain store, he not only needs to train chefs, but also needs to screen trustworthy people.

But human nature cannot withstand the test. Even if he paid these chefs extremely high salaries, as long as someone offers even greater benefits, some will still betray him.

After much deliberation, Xu Beichen decided to buy a soul beast.

The summoned soul beasts are 100% loyal, so there's absolutely no need to worry about any soul beast betraying you.

"By the way, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion seems to only have a cultivation level of over ten thousand years."

Thinking of this, Xu Beichen immediately searched the Soul Beast Shop and found the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, which only cost a little over 15,000 points.

You can exchange 15,000 points for a 100% obedient female soul beast. What's the difference between that and giving it away for free?

Without saying a word, Xu Beichen rushed upstairs to the second floor. After confirming that Xin Xia was not at home, he summoned the three-eyed golden lion.

A flash of white light, and soon a golden soul beast came into view.

It is over three meters long, eight feet tall at the shoulder, and its entire body is covered with a layer of brilliant golden fur.

With golden fur, its entire body seemed like a translucent crystal, full of strange texture.

Its overall shape resembles a lion, but its four claws are like those of a dragon, with a ball of golden flame under each claw, and beneath its fur appear to be fine golden scales.

The most surprising thing is that she has a third eye on her forehead, shaped like a vertical pupil.

The lower eye shimmered with gold, while this vertical pupil emitted a red hue, a red with an eerie quality.

"Hasn't it taken human form yet?"

Xu Beichen was stunned for a moment, then his face lit up with joy. Wouldn't that be just like a game, where he could customize the character's appearance as he pleased?

Xu Beichen did not hesitate for long and directly had the Three-Eyed Golden Lion use attribute guidance on him.

To avoid any unexpected issues, Xu Beichen tried his best to make some adjustments to Wang Qiu'er's image.

After the memory exchange was completed, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion immediately chose to transform into human form.

Before long, a tall, slender woman appeared in the room.

Her long, wavy, light blue hair cascaded down like a waterfall, covering her entire back and reaching all the way to her hips.

Looking at the naked Goddess of Light, Xu Beichen's breathing visibly stopped for a few seconds. After suppressing his anger, he directly handed her a few pieces of men's clothing.

The Three-Eyed Golden Lion was very tall after its transformation, only slightly shorter than Xu Beichen by less than half a head, so there was no major issue with its size.

After she put it on, she actually looked quite dashing.

The only downside was that the chest area looked like it was about to explode, making the originally loose shirt look fuller.

From now on, you will be called Wang Qiu'er.

Xu Beichen is terrible at naming things, so after thinking about it, he decided to just use an existing one.

"Yes, Master." Wang Qiu'er immediately knelt on one knee and said respectfully.

Xu Beichen felt very satisfied that Wang Qiu'er, who looked no more than eighteen or nineteen years old, called him master, but he still spoke up:

"Qiu'er, when we're outside, you can just call me Beichen."

"Yes," Wang Qiu'er immediately replied.

Over the next few days, Xu Beichen first awakened Wang Qiu'er's magic system, and then began to teach her cooking skills.

In addition, Xu Beichen took a fancy to a high-end teahouse in the city center, bought it, and then demolished and rebuilt it.

This time, Xu Beichen focused on the issue of foot traffic, so the restaurant's area is about three times the size of the previous one.

It's also a two-story building, with a restaurant on the first floor and accommodations on the second.

Xu Beichen moved his family here, while A Yin and Bing Di remained where they were.

Operating two stores simultaneously can avoid overcrowding and significantly improve efficiency.

After more than a year of development, Hyotei has been upgraded from a mid-level monarch to a grand monarch.

Even if something dangerous happens at the restaurant, Hyotei and Gintoki will definitely be able to protect themselves.

Even if they encounter a problem that they can't solve, the two places are only a dozen kilometers apart, and Di Tian will be able to get there in no time.

With two restaurants, even though they still only operate for six hours a day, they can earn more than 30,000 points every day.

At this rate, I could earn ten million points a year just by running the restaurant!

Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, not a single look!

The reason for such terrifying revenue is mainly due to Pang Lai's reputation as a living advertisement, with dozens or even hundreds of super-level mages arriving every day.

They would typically order dishes costing millions, and some top-tier individuals even ordered dishes costing tens of millions.

"Mr. Xu, after you expand, you're bound to make a fortune, aren't you?"

Dongfang Mo looked around the now much more spacious restaurant and said with a smile.

He had previously suggested that Xu Beichen change restaurants. Although the previous restaurant was nicely decorated, it was too small and could only accommodate about forty people.

It would have been sufficient a year ago, but since the extensive promotion, it has become noticeably inadequate.

"These are just small businesses, nothing compared to your Dongfang family."

Xu Beichen smiled and replied casually.

"Hehe~"

Dongfang Mo rolled his eyes. If their Dongfang family could make that much money, they would have already trained dozens of super-level mages.

In terms of making money, the only families in China that can rival Xu Beichen are probably the Mu, Zhao, and Zu families.

The Mu family controlled many mines and some industries, so their revenue was naturally terrifying. The Zhao family, needless to say, was so poor that all they had was money.

As for the Zu family, their domestic foundation is not as strong as that of the Mu family, and they are not as profitable as the Zhao family.

However, they have established branches in many countries, which involve many aspects, and their combined revenue is also terrifying!

However, these three aristocratic families have one thing in common: their annual expenses are also very high.

Both the Mu and Zu clans need to train their disciples, which costs money like water. After all, there are so many mages to support, and no amount of money can last forever.

Although the Zhao family did not have this problem, they needed to spend money to hire powerful sorcerers as retainers, which also required a lot of money.

It's a very simple principle: no matter how much money you have, you can't keep it if you don't have enough strength.

Therefore, compared to Xu Beichen, he is clearly more terrifying. He has almost no costs, and it's all profit!

"Boss Xu, do you still have all the items on this menu in stock?" Dongfang Mo asked.

"Of course, otherwise I wouldn't have written it down," Xu Beichen said.

"Our chieftain wishes to come tomorrow; would you be so kind as to grant him this favor?"
