Chapter 168: Chapter 168: Unscrupulous Noodles
Meng Chuyue smiled faintly, "If you want to leave, I won’t stop you. However, I will remind you that if the contract is void, I won’t sign it again. So, I suggest you stay a few days to see the results before making a decision. What if I can deliver on my promises? After all, you won’t lose anything by staying for a few days, right?"Xu Zhan flipped through the exam paper and saw that there were only four sheets, each with six pages, not many. He said, "I can get this done in the afternoon, so does that mean I really don’t have to do anything in the morning? Where will I eat lunch?"
"You can have a parent bring it, or they can pick you up and take you home to eat, but you can’t go out to eat by yourself. Oh, you can eat noodles here, five yuan a bowl."
Song Yan was astonished, "Five yuan a bowl? Are you trying to rob us?"
"You don’t have to eat them. Oh, the noodles here are made to order."
Finally, another student named Liu Cong spoke up, "I knew it, there’s no such thing as a free lunch. You say there’s no tuition, but it turns out you’re making money from us in this way."
Meng Chuyue shook her head firmly, "Not at all. To be honest with you, I don’t make a single cent from these noodles, and you’ll find that out eventually. Oh, and there’s something else I should clarify: these five yuan bowls of noodles are quite small. Normally, only girls can get full from them, you guys definitely won’t be satisfied. At least two bowls, maybe even three or four, are needed."
Meng Chuyue finished speaking and left.
Liu Cong paced around the room, muttering curses under his breath.
Song Yan, who couldn’t stand cursing, frowned and stopped him, "Stop cursing. If she’s selling it at a high price, we just won’t eat. It’s summer now, the dishes won’t get cold, so we can bring our own. If worse comes to worst, we can go down and eat some fruit. Her ordinary fruit isn’t expensive, and she also gives us a 20% discount."
Xu Zhan blinked, "She hasn’t already raised the prices out of spite, has she? Why don’t we go down now and check?"
The fruit salad that Meng Chuyue had just delivered wasn’t only scant but also whetted his appetite.
The other two felt the same way and immediately agreed.
They each went down and ordered a plate of fruit salad.
Each plate was heaped full and cost only one yuan and sixty cents.
The three looked on as Tong Wen and Xia Ping worked and noticed they only charged for the fruit and the salad dressing, without an additional labor fee.
After a few bites, Song Yan asked, "You’re not going to arbitrarily raise prices on this fruit salad, right?"
Meng Chuyue knew what he was getting at and said with a suppressed laugh, "There will be no random price hikes. But prices will fluctuate with the overall market. That is to say, if prices go up outside, we will raise ours accordingly. If they drop, we will lower ours a bit, too."
Song Yan thought for a moment, his face darkened, "It’s summer now, we’re about to run out of fruits, and prices are definitely going to rise."
Meng Chuyue remained as calm as still water, "There may be no fruits, but there will be melons. Melons can also make delicious salads. Tomorrow, we will have a batch of white sweet melons for fifty cents a pound, so a plate like this will only cost one yuan."
The three, Song Yan and the others, were speechless.
Is that for real?
If it’s true, does that mean everything Meng Chuyue wrote in the contract is genuine?
But if it’s true, how can she make any money?
What exactly is she selling in her gourd?
Secretly, they decided to stay put for a few days, to figure out Meng Chuyue’s intentions before choosing to leave since they had nothing to do recently anyway.
Besides Song Yan’s trio, Meng Chuyue also took in five other students today.
Some were like Song Yan’s group, preparing to retake their final year of high school.
Some planned to retake their final year of middle school.
Others were first- and second-year high school students.
Meng Chuyue accepted anyone willing to follow the contract, giving each person a test paper and allowing them to move freely.
Among them were two girls, whom Meng Chuyue arranged to stay in the guest rooms on the second floor.
