Chapter 609 Taiyaki Shop
Chapter 609 Taiyaki Shop
In a Taiyaki restaurant on the street, a young boss was wiping the table and kitchen utensils. Looking at the empty street, the young man couldn't help but sigh, no one came...
"Oh, there are not many people buying things today." Looking at the busy scenes in other stores, but only his own store was deserted, he felt very upset.
Mingxu and Xiaoxin were out shopping when they passed by. Seeing the young boss sighing, Xiaoxin couldn't help but walk over and asked, "You seem to be free. Don't you want to grill Taiyaki?"
"Oh, it's baking." The boss looked at Xiaoxin speechlessly, pointing at the mold on the grill, then poured the paste into the mold, added the fillings, and then put it on the stove to bake.
Then he lowered his head and was stunned. When did so many children come?
"Hello, boss." The kids shouted to the boss. Mingxu was a little confused. No, how come you guys are so familiar with shouting? Could it be that you have been here many times?
Not only Mingxu was confused, the young boss was also stunned for a moment, then he smiled and said, "Welcome, what would you like to order?"
"Excuse me, where is the uncle who usually works here?" Zhengnan looked at the boss, then looked around the store and asked curiously.
"Ah? My father is feeling a little unwell and can't come for the time being." The boss was stunned for a moment and explained to them.
"So that's how it is." Hearing this, the little ones nodded.
"What do you want to talk to my father about?" the boss asked in confusion. Could it be that his father had some close friends who were much older than him?
"No, because uncle always gives us the leftovers of the Taiyaki." Zhengnan said a little embarrassedly. Now not only the boss understood, but Mingxu also understood. So that's how it is. It turns out that when I was not around, you guys would look for food everywhere.
"Oh, oh, take it." The boss sighed silently, took the edge of the plate beside him and handed it to them.
"Thank you." After getting what they wanted, the little ones thanked happily.
"thank you boss."
"What? So you're not a guest."
"Do you guys come here to eat Bianbian again?" Mingxu picked up a piece and put it in his mouth. Hmm, it tasted pretty good.
"Yes, this is really delicious." Zhengnan put a piece into his mouth and said with satisfaction.
"It's very yummy."
"I'd like it to go with a cup of strong hot tea." Shin-chan said, his eyes inevitably looking towards the boss.
"The boss twitched his lips and said unhappily, "There is no hot tea."
“It’s really nice here.”
"Yeah, it's quite relaxing with not many customers, right?" After hearing what Xiaoxin said, the other party's face turned dark. You are stabbing yourself in the heart!
"But business is so bad, can it be sustained?" Feng Jian also said. Mingxu looked at him and shook his head. You shouldn't say such things in front of others.
"There's a teppanyaki restaurant in front of the station, and my mom said they've taken all the business away."
"Oh, I've seen that restaurant before. It seems to be some New Century Taiyaki. They also say that you can taste Taiyaki in the universe. In addition to red beans, there are also chocolate, curry, etc., many different flavors." Mingxu remembered when he heard it. He had seen it when he went shopping.
"I prefer mustard flavor." Xiaoxin said immediately.
"Mustard flavor? It's custard cream, right?" Kazama corrected Shin-chan.
"Oh, you can say that."
"If this shop also made Taiyaki of various flavors, it would also be popular." Kazama said as everyone turned around and looked at the Taiyaki shop in front of them.
"..." Mingxu rolled his eyes. Not only did you stab each other in the heart, you stabbed them many times. Since the other party chose to be traditional, it means that he has a strong sense of concepts. You will be scolded if you talk like this.
As expected, the boss shouted immediately after hearing what Kazama said, "I'm telling you, Taiyaki must have red bean paste, and the sweetest kind is the best!"
"I like red bean paste, too." Ah Dai nodded.
"Yes, this store has been in business since my grandfather's time. It is considered an old store in Kasukabe." The boss couldn't help but say as he looked into the store.
"So, this store has been passed down for three generations?" Mingxu asked in surprise. Some things did look very old, but he didn't expect them to be so old.
“What is an old store?”
"It's a long-established shop, but it's a shame that they still use such an inefficient method to grill sea bream in this day and age." The old class looked at the layout of the shop and sighed. His father even refuted him, saying that his idea was wrong! He believed that Taiyaki would only taste good if it was grilled one by one, even if it took time.
Moreover, my father didn’t want to close the Taiyaki shop. I just wanted to be an ordinary office worker. But now I don’t have a job. My mother persuaded me to inherit this old shop and said that my father would be very happy. . .
Thinking of this, the boss sighed: "But Dad can't make much money from a 100-yuan Taiyaki no matter how hard he sells it..." the boss murmured.
"Boss, your sea bream is emitting black smoke." Mingxu looked at the boss's dazed look and pointed behind him and shouted.
"Ah? Oops! It's burnt..."
"Wow, perfect black sea bream." Shin-chan couldn't help but shout when he saw the charred taiyaki that the boss turned out.
"You don't need to pay attention at this time!" the boss shouted with some shame and anger.
"Found you. I thought you guys had gone somewhere. What are you doing in a place like this?" Nini suddenly appeared in front of everyone and laughed at everyone. But with her back to the light, she always made everyone feel cold. . .
"For today's Kasukabe Defense Force's mission, Nini has thought of a great theme. We want to make playing house realistic and more interesting. Look, I've written a lot of good ideas." Nini happily took out a notebook, and the little ones were sweating.
The moment Fengjian and Mingxu exchanged glances, they came up with an idea.
"Well, I'm sorry, the theme has been decided." Mingxu coughed twice.
"What does that mean?" Nini was stunned and looked at the others uncertainly.
"That's the mission of the Kasukabe Defense Team today. We have to help the closed Taiyaki restaurant." Shin-chan shouted quickly.
"That's right! This is it!" Fengjian clapped his hands.
"The closed-down Taiyaki shop? Is this the one?" Nini asked, looking at the Taiyaki shop in front of her.
"Hey, you are so rude! Our store hasn't closed down yet!" The boss was stunned and said unhappily.
"It will be soon." Xiao Xin waved his hand indifferently.
"The plan to revitalize the Taiyaki restaurant sounds very interesting." Upon hearing this, Nini's eyes lit up.
"Oh shit, Nini seems really interested."
"It's better than playing house in a very realistic way, right?"
"That's right..."
"First you have to try eating." He looked at Mingxu and Fengjian. They were the only two who had pocket money.
"Okay, I get it." Mingxu's mouth twitched and he looked at the boss: "Please give me six Taiyaki."
"Oh. Okay, thank you." The boss was stunned for a moment, then took six and handed them over.
"How does it look like?"
"very perfect."
"Right? I heard that these baking trays were specially customized by my grandfather. They can make the sea bream look alive." The boss said confidently.
“The problem is the taste.”
"Okay, let's try it." Everyone put the Taiyaki into their mouths and took a big bite.
"Yeah, but it's delicious."
"It's really tasteful today."
"Hey, what's wrong with you? A-Dai." Mingxu asked in confusion when he saw that A-Dai was about to cry.
"This is the most delicious Taiyaki I've ever eaten in my life!" Ah Dai said seriously.
"Ah? Not really?" Mingxu scratched his head. It tasted good, but it shouldn't be that exaggerated, right?
"Yeah, it's the most delicious thing I've ever eaten since I was born." Xiaoxin agreed.
"You haven't eaten Taiyaki many times." Mingxu complained.
"Then let's give the scores. Nini deserves 10 out of 10."
"very."
"very."
"One hundred points!" Ah Dai shouted seriously.
"Yeah, ten points." Mingxu took another bite.
"That's great." The boss looked at the little ones, laughed, and continued making them.
After commenting on the food, everyone looked at the boss.
"He looks exhausted, doesn't he?"
"You look exhausted..." The boss was also stunned, but he didn't say anything. He really looked like that.
"But if it tastes good like this, it should be sold. It's still lacking publicity."
“You can’t do advertising that costs money.”
"We need everyone to line up in front of the store and pretend to be queuing up to buy Taiyaki." Zhengnan came up with a bad idea.
"Good idea. Seeing people queuing will make people curious." Fengjian immediately agreed when he heard it.
"It's a bit sour." Mingxu's mouth twitched: "But you can give it a try."
So the kids started talking loudly about this Taiyaki restaurant at the door of the store.
Boss: Are they making fun of me? Oh, forget it.
“The taiyaki here is delicious, right?”
"Red bean paste tastes sweet and it's hard to describe."
"Ah, come and eat me, come and eat me."
"No, where did you get the doll costume?" Mingxu was stunned and asked speechlessly. When did this kid get the Taiyaki doll costume?
"That's right, Shin-chan, this is a bit special."
"The big brothers here have undergone intense special training to make the best Taiyaki!"
"What kind of special training is this? And this is a tire, and we are talking about Taiyaki now!"
No, you just broke into Xiaoxin's imagination? Mingxu looked at Fengjian with strange eyes. Good guy, you really understand Xiaoxin.
"Taiyaki, delicious Taiyaki, come and buy some." No one was too lazy to think of any other solutions, so they just started shouting.
"I'm such a loser for making such a young child worry about me!" The boss sighed and shouted to everyone, "That's enough, that's enough. Thank you very much for your help, but you really don't have to worry about me anymore." Then he handed a large bag of Taiyaki to Mingxu, who was in the lead, and walked into the house.
"Ah? Did we do something we shouldn't have done?"
"Taiyaki, it's such a big bag. Now I can eat as much as I want."
“By the way, let’s distribute these to people nearby for promotion.” Mingxu suggested, looking at the Taiyaki in his arms.
“A taste test.”
"We are so generous." They acted as they said and started to act. After the person who got the Taiyaki tasted it, he asked where the next store was and then left.
After everyone finished, they dispersed without thinking too much.
On the way back, Mingxu and Xiaoxin met an old woman who begged them for something.
The two agreed.
We returned to the Taiyaki restaurant again.
"Oh, you really grilled the snapper."
"Oh, I'm an adult, and it's not a good idea to let a kindergarten kid worry about me."
"Well, that's great. Let's get back to business. Please give me ten Taiyaki."
"Oh, thank you for your patronage." The boss was stunned for a moment and handed it over.
"It should be divided into two whole bags."
"Oh well."
Taking the Taiyaki, the two walked towards the old woman and handed it to each other.
"Here, we bought it."
"Thank you, this is your reward." The old woman handed them a bag.
"Wow, grandma is so generous."
"Thank you."
"Well, it's very well made. Dad will definitely be very happy." After taking a bite, the mother-in-law nodded with satisfaction.
"This should be the boss's mother." Mingxu looked at the other person, smiled, and left with Xiaoxin.
"Xiao Xu, Xiao Xin, where is the Taiyaki restaurant?" They met an aunt on the road and asked for directions. The two looked at each other, smiled, and told each other the location.
Before we knew it, this Taiyaki restaurant started to have a steady stream of customers.
