Business Is Booming

Gu Shihui looked at Li Yizheng for help but Li Yizheng only gave her an encouraging look.

Gu Shihui immediately understood what he meant. He was giving her the authority to decide.

So she didn't hesitate. She did a quick mental calculation and quickly replied to the man, "It's five dollars for an hour over here."

"But it's half-price if you book the night package."

The man had some doubts about the night package so he asked immediately, "How do you calculate the night package?"

"It's from 10 pm to 8 am the next morning. It's 50 if you calculate these ten hours by the hour, but you only need to pay 25 as a night package," Gu Shihui explained.

Hearing this, the man immediately called his three friends and asked them to come over.

"Boss, give us 4 computers, we will have the night package. How much is the total?" The man said generously.

"Okay, it's 6 pm now. If we include the night package till 8 am tomorrow, with four people, that's 220 yuan in total," Gu Shihui said.

The man paid the bill readily.

Not long after, the three people arrived. The four of them sat in front of the computer and started playing games.

Gu Shihui took the notebook and coins and wrote down the time when the four of them logged on and logged off in the notebook.

She also said to Li Yizheng, "Then we'll take these two days as a trial opening. Let's see how it goes. We'll officially open next week."

Li Yizheng nodded. "Okay. After all, it's a business that comes to us. Wouldn't it be foolish not to do it?"

The two of them looked at each other and smiled because Gu Shihui's thoughts were the same as his.

At this time, the big brother shouted again, "Boss, come over."

When Gu Shihui and Li Yizheng heard this, they hurried over. "What's wrong? What happened?"

"Are these two games new? I've never seen them in other internet cafes." the man said, pointing at the games that would only become popular two years later.

Gu Shihui stepped forward and looked at them. "Yes, brother. These two games are the only ones here. There aren't any in other internet cafes yet."

The man laughed heartily. "I just played it briefly, the experience is good."

"Sure, brother. Continue playing and call us if you need anything."

"Oh right, we also have instant noodles, water, beverages, and all kinds of snacks. If you guys are hungry at night, you can call us," Gu Shihui added.

At this time, his friend beside him said, "Not bad. The environment here is so good and they sell things. It saves us from running back and forth again. Don't worry, we will come to your shop in the future and bring you more customers."

The others also agreed.

Gu Shihui smiled. "Thank you, then. You guys have fun. I won't bother you anymore."

As she spoke, she and Li Yizheng returned to the front desk.

In a few hours, three more young men came.

They stood at the door and looked into the room.

"Boss, do you still have computers?"

Li Yizheng said, "Yes, you can come in."

"There are computers." The three young men's eyes lit up and they hurried in.

Their situation was the same as the group just now. There were no vacant seats in the vicinity. As they walked, they saw an internet cafe here so they planned to come in and try their luck. They didn't expect that they would be able to play.

"This is five dollars an hour. How long do you want to play for?"

The three of them thought for a while and said, "Let's play for three hours first."

"Okay."

Gu Shihui nodded and said, "After ten o'clock, the night package is half-price. Do you want to have the night package?"

"Oh? Then how does the night package work?" These young men were tempted.

Gu Shihui said, "The night is from 10 pm to 8 am the next day, which is twenty-five dollars."

"What if halfway we don't want to do it?"

Gu Shihui thought for a while and said, "Since it's a night package from 10 pm to 8 am the next day, it does not matter how long you play, it's still 25 yuan."

"If that's the case, then let's do three hours first. Then we'll talk about whether we want to do it or not later."

"Okay, then it's 15 yuan per person for three hours," Gu Shihui said to them.

The three of them immediately paid the bill.

Just like that, more and more people came one after another. The 20 computers were filled with people.

Even if they only played for a few hours and did not purchase the night package, there were still people who quickly made up for the slot.

Li Yizheng saw the obvious tiredness in Gu Shihui's eyes, so he said to her, "If you can't hold on, you can go back first. I'm here."

Gu Shihui nodded and said, "Alright, then I'll go back first. I'm too sleepy."

She yawned loudly as she spoke.

Li Yizheng glanced at the sky outside. It was already dark.

He was worried so he decided to send Gu Shihui back first before returning to the shop.

Gu Shihui walked out in a daze. She became half-awake as the cold wind outside blew.

Then, she found Li Yizheng following behind her. "Hey, why are you out? I don't need you to send me back. Let's go back and look after the shop."

Li Yizheng rolled his eyes at her. " The sky is already so dark. It's not safe if I don't send you back."

"Also, if not for that gust of wind that woke you up as you came out, you would have walked with your eyes closed."

After hearing that, Gu Shihui smiled awkwardly. "Didn't I wake up? Hahaha."

"Alright, let's go. I'll send you home first. There are no vacant seats in the shop now anyway. Just go and come back earlier."

Gu Shihui and Li Yizheng strolled under the moonlight.

They reached the downstairs of Gu Shihui's house.

"Alright, go upstairs and rest early," Li Yizheng said to Gu Shihui.

Gu Shihui nodded. "Okay, take it easy on the way back. Find a place to rest for a while."

"Okay, got it. Hurry up."

Li Yizheng watched Gu Shihui walk upstairs. He waited for Gu Shihui to turn on the lights in her room as usual before turning around and leaving.

After returning to the internet cafe, Li Yizheng did a rough calculation. He had earned around a thousand yuan from the internet fees and the things he had sold.

Seeing that there was nothing else to do now, he sat at the cash register and took a nap.

However, he was thinking of finding a time to put a sofa at the cash register counter.

This way, this will solve the problem of Gu Shihui having no place to rest when she arrived, and it would be even more tiring if she sat on the chair to rest.

Li Yizheng originally thought that since there were no vacant seats, he could rest for a while but who would have thought that more and more people came to the internet cafe to ask if there were still seats available.

The business was already so good in just half a day of the trial opening. Li Yizheng began to consider buying a few more computers.

The next morning, Gu Shihui brought breakfast to the internet cafe.

There were still customers in the internet cafe, still playing games and swearing from time to time.

Li Yizheng curled up on a chair at the cash register and was sleeping.

Due to his height, Li Yizheng felt uncomfortable no matter how he leaned on the chair.
