"What? Daily sales exceeded 3 million boxes? Wasn't this a very normal thing? I thought he could sell 5 million boxes yesterday! " Ito Dōdō, who had heard all kinds of exaggerated figures, was very calm. He was now a person who had seen the world and would not be frightened by such exaggerated sales figures.
In fact, Ito Dōdō had seen the TV program yesterday. This guy was not a complete idiot. When he saw Honda Ichiro take out figurines of various characters, as well as figurines of shocking skills, and finally guarantee that he would fulfill a wish that could be fulfilled with money, Ito Dōdō knew that even the gods could not stop the sales of Elven Crispy Noodles.
Anyway, just yesterday, 100 million boxes of Elfin Crispy Noodle Snacks had been transported by cargo ship from Hua Xia to the docks. Ito Yoshinori had sent 100 trucks and spent 24 hours to distribute the 100 million boxes of Elfin Crispy Noodle Snacks to warehouses deployed all over the country. Now, the 7-Eleven convenience store had an abundant supply of goods. No matter how high the sales volume was, Ito Yoshinori had nothing to fear.
Ito Dōdō could sit still, but the employees of the 7-Eleven convenience store wanted to curse.
They originally thought that working in a convenience store was a relatively easy job. They had three shifts a day, eight hours a day, and half of the time they could slack off. The salary was not low, and it was an hourly job. The salary could be paid daily, and the students could use it to earn pocket money. They were simply too happy.
But now, this happiness was broken. Since the damn Elfin Crispy Noodle Snack Fight, they had not had a comfortable day. They were in a state of crazy busy every day.
In the early morning, they had to transport hundreds of boxes of crispy noodle snacks from trucks coming from afar into the warehouse. These hundreds of boxes of crispy noodle snacks had to be taken out of the warehouse the next day, counted, and placed on the counter.
Then, they had to face a line that was often more than ten meters long. They had to constantly pay and settle bills. Even the handle used to scan the barcodes had been broken in three days. The money and coins in the ATM had to be emptied every half an hour. In the end, they had to use gunny sacks to carry the money.
Originally, they only had to work eight hours a day, but now they were forced to work about 12 hours a day. Although the overtime pay was still good, this kind of life had become a kind of torture.
They had thought that after the first ten days, as the popularity dropped, the usual days would return. It seemed that this was the case, and the popularity gradually dropped. However, with the broadcast of the TV program yesterday, they saw a more terrifying buying wave than before. The flow of people at the entrance of many stores was more than 100 meters. There were also damned reporters who kept taking pictures of them with their cameras, as if they were monkeys in the zoo.
Anyway, the mentality of the staff's mentality of course.
The mentality of the customers' mentality, of the Elfin Crispy Noodle snacks, and finally, they were told that they could only buy 10 packets of Elfin Crispy noodle snacks at one time.
"What the hell is this? Ten't's Crispy noodle noodle snacks't? I came here with 1,500 yen, I want to buy 100!!! " Although many customers were shouting like this, wanting to buy more Elfin Crispy Noodle Snacks, there were too many people. The 7-Eleven convenience store could only impose a limit on the number of Elfin Crispy Noodle Snacks. Otherwise, the Elfin Crispy Noodle Snacks would be sold out within an hour.
However, as the saying goes, there are always countermeasures. Some of the convenience stores soon found that some poor homeless people in tattered clothes, who were obviously bankrupt, came to line up. After each of them bought 10 packets of Elfin Crispy Noodle Snacks, they opened them on the spot and handed the cards inside to a fashionably dressed young man nearby. Then, these homeless people took the remaining crispy noodle snacks and walked away happily. The young man happily held hundreds of Heroes cards in his hands and began to count them.
"Liu Bei … already has one …"
"Guan Yu … already has one …"
"Lu Su … still has one …"
"It's Cao Cao! I finally got Cao Cao!! " The young man suddenly shouted with joy, and the people in line around him immediately showed envious eyes.
This was Cao Cao, the legendary card that was very difficult to get. Many people bought thousands of crispy noodle snacks and still couldn't get a single Cao Cao card.
But when the young man finished counting the hundreds of cards, he shouted gloomily and crazily, "F * ck, still no Lu Bu, I'm only missing one Lu Bu, ah ah ah ah ah, why don't you give me Lu Bu!!! I want Lu Bu!!!! "
"Hey, you guys come back and continue to line up for me!" Then, the young man caught up with the homeless people he had just found and asked them to continue to line up for him.
And so, these homeless people began to line up happily again.
Soon, many buyers saw that the homeless people were a resource. Not only could they line up to buy the limited edition crispy noodle snacks, they could also give them the useless crispy noodle snacks as a reward and avoid wastage. It was indeed a good deal.
And so, all the homeless people in Fusang fell into a state of busy work. Their task at all times was to line up, get their cards, and then leave with the crispy noodle snacks.
After working like this for half a day, the homeless people stopped. They had accumulated enough crispy noodle snacks to eat for a month, and their small broken tent could not hold so many crispy noodle snacks. They began to ask for other things, such as more affordable cash.
And so, the reward for lining up became a packet of five yen, but even so, the homeless people did not have enough.
But soon, these buyers found a more affordable target, which was the cute children. These children often did not have much pocket money, but they had a lot of time. So, they used these children to line up for themselves, and then the crispy noodle snacks and cards became the children's rewards.
And the children were not tired of this. They happily lined up, and the length of the line was constantly refreshed, which made all the convenience store employees have the urge to die. Itoh Dōdō soon received a large number of convenience store employees who wanted to resign. He had no choice but to add some temporary allowances. Otherwise, many 7-Eleven convenience stores would have closed down because they could not even recruit a single employee.

Nemiya Ririe was a girl born in Kumamoto City, Kumamoto Prefecture. She was 13 years old this year. Unlike other girls who liked to watch cherry meatballs, she was very obsessed with the recently aired anime "The Legend of the Three Kingdoms."
Unfortunately, her family was not well off. Even if it was only 15 yen per pack, she could not afford it. She could only look at the cards in the hands of other children and imagine that she could have her own cards.
As more and more children in the class had various Three Kingdoms cards, Nemiya Ririe's desire became stronger and stronger. Until one day, her good friend took her to see an uncle. The uncle gave her 150 yen to help her line up and buy ten packs of crispy noodle snacks. As a reward, she could have the crispy noodle snacks inside, as well as any other useless cards except for Cao Cao, Lu Bu, and Guan Yu.
Nemiya Ririe was very happy. Although it took her an hour and a half to line up, she finally succeeded in completing the task. With ten packs of crispy noodle snacks, she found the middle-aged man who was standing aside checking the cards.
"Damn it, they're all useless cards!" The middle-aged man cursed. Nemiya Ririe's ten packs of crispy noodle snacks were all overflowing cards. There was not even a single Cao Cao or Guan Yu, let alone a card like Lu Bu.
The middle-aged man used a blue light specially used to check banknotes to look at the cards. There was no Golden Flash Card among them, so all the cards and crispy noodle snacks went to Nemiya Ririe.
"You go line up again!" The middle-aged man gave Nemiya Ririe another 150 yen. In this way, Nemiya Ririe queued up three times and bought 30 packs of crispy noodle snacks for the middle-aged man. Finally, when Nemiya Ririe opened the last pack of crispy noodle snacks, she said with great surprise, "Uncle, it's Guan Yu! I got Guan Yu!!!"
"Guan Yu!" The middle-aged man perked up a little. Although Guan Yu was also a card that was very difficult to draw, he actually already had three Guan Yu cards. After all, he had spent a total of 150,000 yen on more than 10,000 crispy noodle snacks. It was normal to draw three or four Guan Yu cards.
The middle-aged man perked up a little and shone the blue light in his hand. Then, his whole body trembled. "Golden! Golden!! This is the Golden Flash Card, it's the Golden Flash Card, Guan Yu!!! From today onwards, I'm a hero warrior, fighting for the hottest blood in the world, fighting for the glory of the Great Han Empire. I'm the Emperor's Warrior Sage, Guan Yu!!! "
The middle-aged man was so excited that he actually shouted the entrance lines of the extremely chuunibyou Guan Yu in the anime in front of everyone.
What was even more speechless was that the audience actually didn't feel very embarrassed.
The middle-aged man's voice quickly attracted the attention of everyone present. Many people didn't even line up and rushed over directly. Then, they saw a card shining with golden light under the blue light.
"It's really the Golden Flash Card!"
"Wow, so you can really draw the Golden Flash Card!!!"
Everyone rushed over. The middle-aged man was so scared that he ran away. But before he ran away, he gave Rie Nemiya a 1,000 yen bill, and then kissed her forehead and said, "Thank you, my little lucky star. This is your reward!"
After saying that, the middle-aged man ran away without a trace.
With the middle-aged man's escape, the crowd could only continue to line up helplessly. However, the appearance of the Golden Flash Card Guan Yu also proved the fact that as long as you were willing to draw, you could draw the Golden Flash Card. As a result, the people in line became even more enthusiastic and crazy.
"I'm going to buy 10 packs for myself!" Looking at the 1,000 yen in her hand, Nemiya Ririe touched her little heart and thought happily.
