Different World Card Master: Change the World with Cards

59: Daily store opening“Boss, two tofu buns and a bowl of soy milk, please.”

“Alright. Eating here or taking away?”

“Eating here.”

A new day began with breakfast. Xu Bai woke up early again today and brought Xu Le to eat the tofu buns at this shop.

This time, Xu Bai didn’t get takeout; he sat directly inside the breakfast shop to eat.

Eating while walking is unhealthy and can easily lead to various gastrointestinal problems like indigestion or bloating. Plus, there are all sorts of bacteria on the street.

And if he were to take it back to the shop to eat, it would get a bit cold, and there would be some condensation on the buns.

So, based on Xu Bai’s experience, eating in the shop is best.

Xu Bai had just finished his bun and was about to drink the rest of his soy milk when he heard Fang Mu’s voice from the doorway.

“Brother Xu, you’re here too.”

Xu Bai looked up and greeted Fang Mu: “You’re quite early too. Are those two still not awake?”

“Yes, they can’t get up, so I’m getting them breakfast.”

“Okay, but if they can’t get up now, what will they do in winter? I can’t get up in winter.”

“I’ll only call them three times. If they really can’t get up, then it’s every man for himself.”

...The two chatted for a few sentences about waking up, then parted ways.

Xu Bai arrived at his small shop and opened for business.

Looking at the cards replication machine in front of him replicating the Magnifying Glass cards, Xu Bai was a bit lost in thought, a bit bored.

He found today that operating the cards replication machine was still a bit difficult, not as simple as Xu Bai had imagined.

At first, replicating yun rou jin (cloud soft tissue) was probably simpler. This Magnifying Glass required Xu Bai to transmit his cards-making ideas through mental power.

It was quite magical, no wonder the first person to create the Magnifying Glass hadn’t sold it in large quantities yet; perhaps the ideas hadn’t been fully organized.

Fortunately, he had received compulsory education and a lot of knowledge from the modern information explosion, which allowed him to organize his thoughts more quickly.

While Xu Bai was daydreaming, his old customer Aunt Wang arrived.

“Little Xu, I want five yun rou jin (cloud soft tissue) cardss.” After speaking, her gaze fell on the cards being replicated by the machine, and she asked a question.

“Oh, Little Xu, is this your new cards? What is it? How much per cards?”

“Aunt Wang, this is a Magnifying Glass cards, 240 yuan per cards. If you want a two-star one, it’s 500 yuan per cards.”

This pricing was carefully considered by Xu Bai. At the same time, Zhao Zixuan had also updated him on Li Lan’s situation last night, so the one-star version was a bit more expensive than Li Lan’s.

Last night, Xu Bai also told Zhao Zixuan that Li Lan could come to learn, but there was one requirement: he needed to come and look after the shop on Saturdays and Sundays.

Originally, according to Li Lan, for every cards made and sold, Xu Bai could get half of the commission.

Xu Bai politely declined this. He wasn’t short on that little bit of money. Now he felt that going to work every day was a bit troublesome and was planning to find someone to look after the shop, so he proposed that Li Lan look after his shop for two years, and he would teach him how to make this.

“Oh, I think I’ve heard of this. What was it called again?”

Aunt Wang kept trying to remember but just couldn’t recall what it was.

“Auntie, are you trying to say it was the one that won first place in last year’s Card Innovation Competition, right?”

Xu Bai interjected.

“Yes, yes, that’s it. I saw it in the newspaper at the time. I heard it could magnify things you see.”
