Start living in Tokyo by inheriting the shopping street

Even though his morale was already alarming, he was still able to tease her calmly. This level of composure was truly extraordinary.

"Adam's apple...collarbone..." Fumika Ogawa murmured two places.

"I see, Madam's preferences are very special." Chiba Shuichi chuckled. The madam really has a girlish heart and likes such simple things.

Ogawa Fumika's face turned red from laughing, and hot steam slowly rose from her head, but it mixed with the steam from the hot water, making it impossible to tell the difference.

"Today is the one-week anniversary of me having the honor of meeting my wife. Do you want to celebrate with me while we're still on the phone?"

Chiba Shuichi didn't say it clearly, but the ambiguous tone, combined with the context, explained everything.

I can remember the one-week anniversary so clearly...

Ogawa Fumika couldn't bear to hear this, and immediately became emotional. She squeezed out a response with her sticky throat, "Hmm..."

"Ok?"

"Um……"

"Did you agree or something?"

"Well……"

"Mrs?"

"Crash..."

"I think I heard the sound of water, ma'am, are you still listening?"

"Um……"

"If you don't talk, I'm going to hang up."

"Qian...Qianye-kun...let's celebrate together..."

Chiba Shuichi finally showed a satisfied smile, "As you wish, ma'am."

……

After more than ten minutes, Ogawa Sayuki, who was waiting in line for a shower, became impatient, turned over and sat up in bed, and walked towards the bathroom.

"Sister, are you still not done? It's my turn to take a bath, right? Isn't the water getting cold?"

Pushing open the bathroom door, she was about to complain, but suddenly stopped and blinked, "Sister...what are you doing?"

"Ah! Sayuki, get out quickly..." Ogawa Fumika was startled.

Chapter 67: Stop Talking Nonsense, Come Up

On Friday, when Chiba Xiu opened his eyes, he saw that the sky outside the balcony was covered with dark clouds, and it seemed like it was going to rain.

This kind of weather makes people feel lazy and don’t want to get up.

He turned his gaze to the bedside, looking at Qiu Shanyue who was kneeling there upright, then lifted the quilt and said, "Come in, let me hold you for a while."

"???" Qiu Shanyue was startled, and then his face showed expectation and vigilance, "Has the perverted young master finally been unable to resist and wants the little maid to serve him in the morning?"

"Stop talking nonsense and come up." Chiba Shuichi didn't want to say more and urged listlessly.

Upon hearing this, Qiu Shanyue got up obediently and got into bed.

Chiba Shuichi held her in his arms, sniffed the sweet scent of the girl's hair, found a comfortable position, and closed his eyes again.

Akiyama Yue waited for a long time, but the other party did nothing. He puffed his cheeks in dissatisfaction.

This is because Chiba Shuichi didn't see it, otherwise he would have discovered that her movements were exactly the same as her sister's.

Feeling Chiba Xiuyi's breathing slowing down behind him, and that he was about to fall asleep again, Akiyama Tsuki was a little anxious. If he didn't get up, he would be late for dinner and school...

Ok?

Is this how it works? The always dedicated student council president is suddenly late because he is forced by his sister to go to a male classmate's house to wake him up.

Then it was used as a full-body pillow, which delayed the time...

Well……

This plot is good, Chiba-san is still so good!

When she got excited, her body trembled.

Because of this commotion, Chiba Shuichi couldn't fall asleep anymore.

He slapped Qiu Shanyue's butt in dissatisfaction, "Why are you moving around? How can I go back to sleep if you're like this?"

"Um……"

Akiyama Yue trembled even more violently.

Chiba Xiuyi wordlessly pushed her out of the bed and said, "Go prepare toothpaste, water, and a wet towel for me."

The despised little maid reluctantly got out of bed and went to get ready.

A few minutes later, she picked up her little leather shoes from the balcony, and followed Chiba Shuichi downstairs.

When I returned to the ramen restaurant, I saw Akiyama An already coming down rubbing her sleepy eyes - she had clearly already washed up, but she still looked sleepy and groggy.

She first sniffed the aroma of the food like a puppy, then looked at the two people at the door suspiciously, "Sister, why did you come back from outside? I didn't seem to see you come downstairs?"

Qiu Shanyue was shocked. How could he have forgotten this? He did the same thing yesterday and didn't even notice the loophole!

"This one……"

"The meal is ready~ Xingjiang, eat quickly, or you will be late for school." At the critical moment, Mrs. Akiyama brought breakfast and interrupted her little daughter's thoughts.

"Wow~ I'm going to eat~" Akiyama An immediately put her sister's affairs behind her, climbed onto the bar chair and started to feast on the food.

“……” Qiu Shanyue breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, her silly sister had a bad memory.

Chiba Shuichi quietly pinched her little butt and said, "Let's eat first."

After he sat down, he thanked Mrs. Akiyama and asked, "Are there any problems with the ramen shop that are difficult to solve? If so, please let me know at any time and I will do my best to help."

Ever since the ramen shop opened, the more he thought about it, the more he felt that he had blamed the system wrongly.

Originally the system was talking about excellent shop owners, and never emphasized that they had to be female shop owners. Most of the time, male shop owners with outstanding looks would also be acceptable.

It's just that he hasn't met it yet.

But... well, if I meet one, I don't really want to recruit him. It always feels weird.

But since male shop owners can also be qualified, maybe it’s not just outstanding appearance that meets the requirements, outstanding abilities should also be acceptable?

In this case, the improvement of the sense of belonging to the shopping street should obviously be done in a more universal way - that is, using the 100,000 yen universal butler to solve problems for more excellent store owners.

The way he treated the two Mrs. Ogawas was clearly... well, a little unorthodox.

After self-reflection, Chiba Shuichi felt that the problem was still with the system. Couldn't he explain it more clearly? Was he trying to make people misunderstand him?

It is obviously harder to meet a male shop owner with outstanding looks or talent. Isn't this purely deliberate misleading?

Mrs. Akiyama tilted her head and thought for a moment, then sighed, "It really is a big problem."

"What's the problem?" Chiba Shuichi immediately became excited. This was a good opportunity to verify his guess.

"Business is so good. There are many more customers than before. I'm so tired..." Mrs. Akiyama said with a gloomy face, rubbing her sore arm.

"..." Chiba Shuichi was speechless after hearing that. Are you still complaining about business being too good?

Okay, it is indeed a bit difficult. After all, Mrs. Akiyama is the only one busy in the store during the day, and the class monitor and the president can only come back to help after school.

"Things like this..." Before Chiba Xiu could speak, Akiyama Yue looked at his mother with a serious expression.

Mrs. Akiyama suddenly shuddered, "Okay, I won't complain anymore, okay? Yue-chan, please stop nagging like your mother-in-law, okay?"

"..." Qiu Shanyue rolled his eyes at her speechlessly, "I mean, if mom really feels it's too hard, why not just limit it every day."

Chiba Xiuyi was speechless and pinched her thigh unhappily. "Can't you let me speak first? I was just trying to verify it."

“Hmm…” Qiu Shanyue suddenly softened, lowered his head and covered his mouth, and said no more.

Chiba Shuichi calmly took back the initiative in the conversation, "Madam, why don't you estimate how many servings of ramen you can make every day without being too hard, and then sell them while they're sold out.

Alternatively, you can consider buying ready-made ramen noodles or using a ramen machine so that you only need to prepare the soup base every day.”

Mrs. Akiyama shrank her neck when she heard this and said sneakily, "If my mother-in-law finds out that I dare to use the ramen machine, she will beat me to death!"

"But if the taste doesn't decrease, she won't be able to say anything, right?" Chiba Xiuyi smiled.

Mrs. Akiyama was obviously very tempted, but after hesitating again and again, she still didn't dare to do it, "Forget it, forget it, it's better to be tired than to be scolded by my mother-in-law.

Besides, limited edition or something like that isn’t a good idea either. I’m afraid the cost in the next few years will be even higher…”

Chiba Shuichi pondered for a moment, then suggested, "Then... handmade ramen is limited in quantity, but machine ramen is unlimited? As for the soup, the degree of fatigue should be about the same no matter how many servings you make, right?"

"Huh? This is good!" Mrs. Akiyama's eyes suddenly lit up, and she felt that she didn't have to work so hard anymore.

"That's fine, and it's more eye-catching. We'll limit the number of handmade ramen to 100, and provide them twice a day at noon and in the evening, on a first-come, first-served basis.

As for the ramen machine, it is not cost-effective for our small shop to use it. It is better to go directly to the noodle factory to purchase ready-made ramen, but this kind of ramen must be cheaper. "

After Akiyama Tsuki recovered, she started to analyze seriously again, which made Chiba Shuichi hit her hard on the butt again.

"One hundred copies is also very tiring..." Mrs. Akiyama muttered softly.

"The store is so small, fifty copies would be enough," Chiba Shuichi suggested.

"That's too much. The champion ramen restaurant in Shibuya district only produces 60 servings a day." Akiyama Tsuki stubbornly got up again.

Chiba Shuichi: "..."

Chapter 68 Main Quest Updated

"What is the 100 Famous Ramen Shop?" Chiba Shuichi gave up on interrupting with dirty tricks and asked curiously.

Akiyama Tsuki gave him a strange look and said, "It's the 100 best ramen restaurants in Tokyo selected by TABELOG? You've never used TABELOG?"

After hearing this, Chiba Shuichi finally remembered what it was. TABELOG is equivalent to Dianping.com.

But it's not that he, an outsider, lacks common sense. His previous life basically didn't use this thing. He just made do with every meal, usually grabbing the half-price bento from the supermarket in the evening.

"Then can your ramen restaurant go up there?" Chiba Shuichi asked.

"How is that possible?" Qiu Shanyue was a little speechless. "Our small shop is far behind the last 100 shops in terms of scale, environment, and reputation."

“But the taste is not worse than the so-called champion, right?” Chiba Shuichi said this and then realized that he had forgotten to eat. He quickly drank two more sips of soup and then breathed a sigh of relief.

"I don't know. I don't have any spare money to eat." Qiu Shanyue also lowered his head and started eating his noodles.

Mrs. Akiyama just sat opposite, eating and watching the two children discuss business with a smile on her face.

"Then I'll treat you to a meal later. If the taste is better than theirs, I'll try to compete for the title of Tokyo's Top 100 Ramen Shops."

As soon as Chiba Shuichi finished speaking, Akiyama Xing, who had been eating hard, immediately grasped the key words. Her little ears moved, and she quickly swallowed the food in her mouth and raised her hand.

"I want to eat too!"

"Eat, eat, eat. All you do is eat. You're never so energetic when you're studying." Qiu Shanyue grabbed her sister's ear in annoyance.

While busy teaching his sister a lesson, he turned to Chiba Xiu and said, "Chiba, aren't you thinking things are too simple? Just because it tastes the best doesn't mean you can get to the top."

Chiba Shuichi touched her head with amusement and ruffled her hair. "You mean TABELOG might not be so fair? But this kind of thing may not be a problem for me."

"I almost forgot that you are a real young master." Qiu Shanyue suddenly remembered that the guy in front of him was very rich and not a commoner like himself.

I played the game of young master and maid so much in private that I even forgot that I was pretending to be a maid, but the other party was not pretending to be a young master!

However, Akiyama Tsuki was obviously not used to Chiba Shuichi's actions and attitude, and slapped his hands aside.

I would rather he do something abnormal than look down on others like this.

Well, a hard spanking is fine, but a gentle pat on the head is not.

"It's not just this point. The environment, service, popularity and so on are also included in the selection range. We can't compare with them in these aspects."
