After Qiao Yuan came, three more guests came one after another.
They were all middle-aged, and it was obvious that they were regulars in the teahouse.
The three of them joked as they pushed open the door of the teahouse, but after entering, they couldn't help but be stunned.
One of them looked around the lobby with some doubts. After making sure that he didn't go in the wrong way, he looked at Chen Xi behind the bar and asked, "Where's Old Xu?"
Hearing this, Chen Xi explained with a smile, "This shop has been transferred. I'm the new owner here. Do you need anything?"
"Oh …"
The man frowned and nodded, then turned to discuss with his companions.
After the three of them whispered a few words, the one who spoke before said to Chen Xi, "Three cups of plain tea."
"Okay, please sit wherever you want."
After that, they walked directly to the booth behind Qin Ruoying, as if they were very familiar with this place.
After seeing them come over, Qin Ruoying hesitated for a moment, then took the book back to the bar.
After all, she was the lady boss. It was not good to always occupy the best seat.
Chen Xi took out three cups from the cabinet.
The little girl reached out to take it, but Chen Xi hurriedly stopped her and said with a smile, "Don't worry, you can't take three cups. Daddy will help you."
"Oh, okay!"
The little girl took back her little hand and nodded obediently.
After Chen Xi handed the cup to her, the little girl carefully followed behind Chen Xi with the cup and walked toward the three people.
"Oh, boss, is this your daughter?"
"Well, yes."
"How old is she?"
"Four and a half years old."
Seeing the little girl eagerly following behind Chen Xi, the person who spoke just now couldn't help but exclaim, "Your daughter is so cute, she's exactly the same as my little one when she was young …"
Chen Xi smiled very politely, then patted the little girl's head and said to her, "Niannian, uncle is praising you. You're cute, quickly say thank you to uncle."
Hearing this, the little girl said sweetly, "Thank you, uncle."
"Oh, your child is so cute."
"That's right, why didn't my wife give me a daughter back then?"
"Come on, with your shabby appearance, how could you give birth to such a beautiful daughter? In my opinion, if your wife had really given birth to such a beautiful daughter for you, I'm afraid you would've taken her for a paternity test long ago … "
"Bah, you can't spit out ivory from your dog mouth!"
The three of them seemed to have a good relationship with each other....
Chen Xi stood to the side and listened for a while, then said with a smile, "Please sit down, if there's anything you need, just tell me."
"Okay, boss, you don't mind us."
A happy's family was. was always eye-catching.
Therefore, Qiao Yuan had been secretly sizing up the family of three sitting behind the bar.
The boss was handsome, and the lady boss was beautiful and virtuous.
They didn't seem to lack money at all, and most importantly, they had a well-behaved and sensible child.
Thinking about it, Qiao Yuan couldn't help but have a trace of envy in her eyes.
Perhaps she realized that she had lost her composure, but when she saw Chen Xi look in her direction, Qiao Yuan immediately lowered her head, then picked up the black tea on the table and drank it.
The black tea entered her mouth, and the taste was mellow.
But when it slowly seeped into her throat, Qiao Yuan faintly felt that there was a delicate fragrance going from her throat to her stomach.
The taste was extremely mellow, fragrant, and sweet, which was simply intoxicating.
After tasting it carefully, Qiao Yuan felt that her whole person was much more awake, and there was a sudden feeling of enlightenment in front of her.
She held the cup in front of her and carefully studied the black tea.
What kind of tea is this?
Why is it so delicious?
It seems to have the effect of refreshing the mind?
Qiao Yuan took another sip, and after tasting it carefully, she suddenly thought of something and quickly looked at the price list on the table.
This cup of tea is so delicious, it must be very expensive, right?
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but feel a little nervous.
She had just looked at the price list, and if she remembered correctly, the cost here wasn't very high.
However, the taste of this cup of tea made Qiao Yuan suspect that she had just seen wrongly, so she quickly picked up the price list and carefully looked at it.
The cheapest was the vegetarian tea, 20 yuan per cup.
Biluochun, 28 yuan per cup.
Keemun black tea, 38 yuan per cup.
And the most expensive Wuyi Da Hong Pao, only 68 yuan per cup.
38 yuan?
A cup of caramel macchiato at Starbucks cost more than 30 yuan, and such a mellow black tea only cost 38 yuan?
For some reason, Qiao Yuan felt like she had picked up a bargain …
If Chen Xi knew what she was thinking now, he would probably be unable to help but chuckle.
The tea leaves of this kind of teahouse were usually bought wholesale from the tea market, one bag at a time. A bag of 500 grams, and a cup of 20 kilograms.
Each cup of tea only required about three to four grams of tea leaves, and some people had a strong taste, so they put more than ten grams of tea leaves.
On average, one bag of tea leaves could make at least 100 cups of tea.
Of course, this didn't mean that the teahouse was a profiteering industry.
After a little careful calculation, one would know that this teahouse was definitely a loss-making business.
The profits were high, but the corresponding rent, water, and electricity were also very expensive. The rent here was 35,000 yuan, how many cups of tea would it take to earn that much? Moreover, customers could sit here for a whole day after ordering a cup of tea. The teahouse was only so big, so even if the business was booming, there was no way to receive more customers after it was full.
Qiao Yuan was still savoring the taste of the black tea when her phone suddenly rang.
Qiao Yuan quickly picked up the phone, and a man's voice sounded on the other end.
"Qiao Qiao, you're in luck today. The bill is issued before noon. Come quickly, you can still get lunch …"
"En, okay, I'll be right there."
After hanging up the phone, Qiao Yuan shouted to Chen Xi, "Boss, the bill."
Hearing this, Chen Xi immediately patted the little girl and said with a smile, "Niannian, go collect the money, 38 yuan, remember to count it."
"Oh."
The little girl thought for a moment and nodded. Then she jumped down from Qin Ruoying's arms and ran directly to Qiao Yuan. She imitated Chen Xi and said, "Sister, 38 yuan."
Qiao Yuan took out two twenties and handed them directly to the little girl when she came over.
The little girl took the money and then ran back to the bar.
"Papa, here!"
Seeing this, Chen Xi and Qin Ruoying couldn't help looking at each other, and both of them laughed.
The child didn't know how to add and subtract. It was simply deliberately making things difficult for her to count the money.
"Sister gave too much money, so we have to give her change. Come on, Niannian, give these two yuan to sister."
The little girl was a little confused.
However, after hearing Chen Xi's words, she obediently took the two yuan and then ran quickly to Qiao Yuan.
At this time, Qiao Yuan had already gotten up and was ready to go out. She seemed to have forgotten that the boss should give her change of two yuan.
Seeing that she was about to push the door open and leave, the little girl hurriedly shouted, "Sister, your money!"
As she spoke, the little girl waved the money in her hand and ran excitedly to Qiao Yuan's side. Qiao Yuan raised her head and handed the two yuan to her.
Qiao Yuan stopped and turned to take the two yuan in the little girl's hand. She touched her head and said with a smile, "Thank you, sister. Can you tell me your name?"
"My name is Chen Nian! Sister, you can call me Niannian! "
After that, the little girl immediately ran back to the bar, seeming a little embarrassed.
"Goodbye, Niannian. I'll come to see you tomorrow."
Qiao Yuan smiled and shouted at the little girl's back.
The little girl didn't look back, so she looked at the couple behind the bar and politely waved to them before leaving.
Seeing this, Chen Xi smiled at her in response.
Qiao Yuan left.
