Infinite Cafetaria

Chapter 54 Sinking

 It was rare to bring back 4-star ingredients, but it made Malu confused and he has not yet decided on today’s menu.

Lao Wang was not in a hurry and was waiting in the kitchen.

 Ma Lu looked at several recipes in front of him, among which [Monitor Lizard Risotto] had a deliciousness index of ★★★.

  It has the highest star rating among the dishes that currently meet the cooking requirements.

According to Malu's pricing standards, [Monitor Lizard Risotto] will cost at least 40 yuan, and there are several ingredients in it that are not cheap. In order to ensure profits, it is best to sell for 50 yuan.

But such a price is obviously not suitable for selling around the university. The last time he sold the sand snapper burger for 35 yuan, he started to feel the pressure. If he sells the [Monitor Lizard Risotto] for 50+ yuan, I don’t know how much the sales volume will be. fold.

This is also the reason why Malu plans to open a store, but even if he starts preparations now, it will be considered fast to be open within a month.

 So Ma Lu and Lao Wang will have to set up their stalls for at least another month.

Although it is not impossible to sell at the original price, after all, the main raw materials are free of charge, and the profit margin of the number one food stall in the universe is already at the top of the pyramid among its peers.

Ma Lu will not earn less than before, but as an ethical and bottom-line operator, he cannot backstab his customers.

 If you can eat a more delicious meal at the same or even less price than before, wouldn’t the people who have supported him with money before become taken advantage of?

No matter what, we can’t let the old customers feel cold!

 However, the road to raising prices has indeed come to an end, and Malu's eyes moved to another recipe.

 【Monitor Sausage】Tasty index ★★☆

Ma Lu pointed to the dish and asked Lao Wang, "How big is this sausage? How much meat does it contain?"

“About 1 kilogram, the meat content is 90%.”

“It’s so big, can it be made smaller?”

 Lao Wang shook his head, "The size will also affect the texture of the roast."

“It doesn’t matter, we can cut it up and sell it after you finish baking it.”

Ma Lu has realized that he has actually fallen into a misunderstanding before. The consumption power of college students is generally not good. Since raising the price is not feasible, why not reduce the portion instead.

 Selling small portions of things can even bring down the price, and now that his collection bag has been upgraded to level 3, he can bring back more ingredients.

Ma Lu took out his mobile phone and calculated the accounts. This time he brought back a total of 600 kilograms of lava monitor lizard meat.

 The sausages are 50g each, and the required lava dragon meat is 45g, which is enough to make 6666 sausages. They are sold at a price of 16 yuan each. If they are all sold out, you can earn 106656.

 The sales of sea bream burgers increased by about 32.4%, and Ma Lu was satisfied with this result.

As expected, he still wants to focus on the sinking market, but this also requires higher sales volume. He has to sell more than a thousand sausages every day.

 Well, it’s not a big problem. Hangzhou University has 40,000 teachers and students.

Following the old rules, Malu first went to the farmer's market to buy the remaining raw materials and handed them to Lao Wang before going back to the house to catch up on his sleep.

 When he woke up, he found that the fan group was very lively. Everyone had now basically figured out the new rules of the number one food stall in the universe, and knew that Malu would change the menu every week at most.

It’s time to do the math now, so everyone is guessing what new products will be launched in the next week and how much the price will be.

As for the first question, there are many guesses, from pizza to pig's trotter rice to braised large intestine. It's like a mad dance.

 But on the second question, everyone’s opinions are surprisingly unified, and they all think that new products will continue to increase in price.

 —Boss Dog knows how to make dirty money all day long, and the more he sells, the more expensive he becomes!

 As the first warrior stood up and made a bold accusation, he was immediately echoed by many people.

—That’s right, I really can’t afford it if the price goes up again!

—Yes, it can’t be raised any more. We are still students and we haven’t worked yet, so where can we get so much money?

—Don’t worry, I don’t have any money after working. You see, all the senior brothers have come out to set up their own stalls.

—He even said he was a senior, but he didn’t even get an alumni discount, which was so chilling.

Amid a group of indignant denunciations, only Hou Yihan weakly defended Malu.

 —No, the boss uses good materials and the cost must be high, but it’s actually not very profitable. However, her voice was very weak and no one paid any attention to it.

However, the group of people who yelled fiercely in the group didn't know that the ingredients of the No. 1 food stall in the universe were good, tasted great, and they were expensive for a reason.

 So more people are actually using this method to put pressure on Malu. Otherwise, if they really encounter expensive and unpalatable products, everyone just doesn’t buy them.

 This is a fighting method developed by our country’s young people after countless rounds of **** battles with mobile game manufacturers.

 However, Malu also plays mobile games, and he can see through what they are planning at a glance.

 So he also sent a message.

  —16

The crowd became more lively as soon as Milu appeared.

 —Ah, senior brother is here.

—Senior brother, someone said bad things about you just now. I wrote down their IDs for you. As long as you let me eat new products for free, I will send them to you.

Some people also asked,

What is 16? Do you need to be over 16 to eat this new product? So exciting?

  —No, 16 is the price of new products.

 Ma Lu continued typing.

 At this time, several chat groups were all abuzz.

 —Mist grass, real or fake? ! It feels more exciting! !

-so cheap! Yaoshou, the price of new products has not increased but is reduced? Senior brother was taken away.

 —Which one of you is going to pinch me? Am I dreaming? This... this should be the lowest price in history.

 —Yes, the previous croquettes were all 18.

—Wow, senior brother, are you doing charity? I will definitely give you a vote for the next top ten people who moved the university.

—Hey, does our school still have this activity? I do not know how.

 …

 Messages are flooding the screen crazily, and people are cheering everywhere. The people who scolded Malu the most before are still frantically withdrawing their historical statements.

The atmosphere in the group was more lively than a holiday, and it wasn’t until 3 minutes later that someone remembered that there was still something crucial that they hadn’t asked.

—By the way, senior brother, what’s the new product this week?

 —Volcano sausage.

 As Ma Lu sent out these four words, the WeChat group suddenly became quiet.

 Then someone slowly typed a question mark.

More and more people lined up in a neat queue, followed by question marks.

—Those who want to eat will see you at the same place in half an hour.

Ma Lu sent this sentence to the group, then put his phone back in his pocket, and went to help Lao Wang carry the raw materials to the tricycle. By the time the two of them arrived at the west gate, a lot of people had gathered.

Ma Lu also said hello to Brother Squid, stopped the three wheels skillfully, and set up the stall in less than half a minute.

Lao Wang, however, remained silent and took out the iron plate where the hamburger meat had been fried before. After it heated up, he spread cooking oil on it and then took out four filled sausages.
