Chapter 165 - Chapter 165: The Story of the Down-and-Out ramen Lady and Her Tragic Long-Term Laborer

When they heard this number, An and the others were all greatly astonished.

Even Satou and his group were a bit surprised. They had originally thought it would be just over fifteen million, but they didn't expect it to sell so much.

"You didn't make a mistake, did you?"

An turned her head to look at the statisticians.

The statisticians were all sweating on their foreheads, holding calculators, and said, "No, we have verified it three times."

"Damn it!"

An gritted her teeth, a little unwilling.

"How about it?"

Satou smiled slightly and said, "You have already lost in terms of turnover."

Although very unwilling, An could only glare at Satou resentfully and say, "I understand, we will temporarily abandon this plan."

The five chefs behind her also looked displeased. They never expected that they, dignified one-star chefs, would be defeated by a few student rookies, which made them very unhappy.

"Oh, right."

An remembered something, "What kind of ingredients did you use? Are they ingredients secretly cultivated within Far Moon?"

"That's confidential."

Satou smiled indifferently and said.

"Hmph!"

An snorted lightly, but in her heart, she was certain that the other party had used ingredients secretly cultivated by Far Moon.

If that were the case, then losing was not unacceptable.

Subsequently, Satou and his group walked out of the restaurant and informed the Ramen Craftsman waiting outside of the good news.

"Really? That's great! This time, it's all thanks to young master!"

"You students from Far Moon, your great kindness and virtue will never be forgotten by us!"

"Thank you so much this time."

The Ramen Craftsman were so excited that tears streamed down their faces. Some even knelt on the ground, expressing their gratitude to Satou and the others.

"It's alright, you don't have to thank me."

Satou quickly said.

Miyoko Hojo, Tadokoro Megumi, and the others also felt very embarrassed.

Next, everyone returned to the ramen shop.

Out of the eighteen million in turnover, after deducting sixteen million for purchasing fantasy ingredients, two million remained.

In the following two days, Satou and Nagi-no-ki Touko also introduced other ramen dishes, but without adding fantasy ingredients. They only used fish bone broth and bone broth as soup bases, which were still very delicious. Although not as popular as the Catfish ramen and Mushroom ramen, they were also welcomed by many people.

Otherwise, relying on only two types of ramen, they wouldn't have had such sales figures.

As for flour and some other common ingredients, they were provided by the Ramen Craftsman. Satou wanted to give them the two million, but they firmly refused to accept it.

"Since that's the case, you all can split this money," Nagi-no-ki Touko said indifferently, as he didn't want the money either.

"Alright." Satou nodded, then divided the money equally among Yukihira Soma and the other seven people, with each person receiving about three hundred thousand.

"Eh? Satou and Erina-san don't get any?" Tadokoro Megumi couldn't help but ask.

Logically, Satou and Erina Nakiri should also have a share.

"She and I don't need it," Satou said with a smile. Erina Nakiri certainly wouldn't care for this money, and he himself wasn't short of it. Completing the task was enough. On the contrary, Tadokoro Megumi and the others had helped so much without a second thought, working themselves to exhaustion every day, so they truly deserved this money.

"Wow, so much money! I'm rich, I'm rich!" Yuki Yoshino's mouth was practically watering. Three hundred thousand was a month's income for a full-time employee, which instantly made her feel that three days of hard work were worth it.

"Great, I can buy a motorcycle now." Yukihira Soma was also very happy. He had wanted to buy a motorcycle for a long time because the distance to school was too far.

Tadokoro Megumi was also a little happy in her heart; she could buy a bicycle.

"Oh, right, Yukihira, can you ride a motorcycle?" Mimasaka Subaru suddenly asked.

"No," Yukihira Soma shook his head.

"How about it, I'll teach you!" Mimasaka Subaru immediately smiled confidently and said, "My motorcycle is outside!"

"Really?" Yukihira Soma's eyes lit up.

"That's right, it's my treasure." Mimasaka Subaru walked outside and then unlocked the three layers of locks on the inside and outside of his motorcycle.

Everyone who witnessed this scene was instantly speechless. This guy must have had his motorcycle stolen more than once, right?

"This time, I owe you another huge favor," Nagi-no-ki Touko said to Satou. "I will be responsible for teaching this girl ramen."

"Really? Thank you so much!" Tadokoro Megumi quickly bowed gratefully.

Everyone else was also envious. What a rare opportunity it was to be personally taught by the Third Seat.

"It's alright. Actually, I've been observing you for the past few days and I think you're a good prospect," Nagi-no-ki Touko said. "So, let's start your training now."

"Starting now?" Tadokoro Megumi was surprised, thinking, as expected of an Elite Ten member, she acts so decisively.

Nagi-no-ki Touko nodded, then walked to the shop entrance, pulled up his ramen stall, and said, "Let's go. During the upcoming journey, I will teach you my understanding of ramen without reservation."

Tadokoro Megumi: "..." Although being taught by the Third Seat made her excited, the thought of the two of them pushing a ramen stall around to sell it everywhere somehow made her feel speechless.

Everyone who had just felt envious suddenly didn't feel envious anymore.

"Why does it feel so down-and-out?" Yuki Yoshino complained.

Everyone nodded, and a tragic scene appeared in their minds: in a world of ice and snow, with the cold wind howling, Tadokoro Megumi and Nagi-no-ki Touko struggled to pull the ramen stall, hawking their wares along the street, and finally freezing to death on the street.

"Is it the tragic story of the down-and-out ramen lady and her long-term helper?" Ryoko Sakaki said.

"Ryoko, you watch too many historical dramas, don't you?" Satou couldn't help but retort.

Ryoko Sakaki stuck out her tongue and gave a playful smile.

"Anyway, I will work hard!" Tadokoro Megumi clenched her small fists and said firmly.

Although the next few days would definitely be tough, this was an opportunity Satou had worked hard to secure for her, and she must not let down Satou's expectations!

Satou nodded, and then everyone else also left.

Today was a holiday, so Kanna didn't go to school and was watching TV on the sofa.
