Before evening, in the late afternoon, there were no customers during this time. Mu Yunfan taught Phyllis about various things in the shop. Phyllis was smart and learned very quickly.
During their free time, Mu Yunfan asked Phyllis about her past. Originally worried that Phyllis may not want to talk about it, now Phyllis didn't seem to have any intention of hiding, so the two sat at a table in the shop and poured two cups of tea while Mu Yunfan listened to Phyllis recount her past.
Mu Yunfan was initially uncertain if she was truly the Elf Saintess, as this identity was too incredible, but now he was completely convinced.
And then Mu Yunfan learned that despite her noble identity and being born into a Duke's family, Phyllis had a childhood that was worthy of sympathy.
When Phyllis spoke about her deeds as the Elf Saintess, although she described them simply, Mu Yunfan could sense the great contributions she had made to the Elf race from her words.
When he heard about how she was framed and expelled from the Elf kingdom, Mu Yunfan was filled with anger and cursed those heartless Elves. He decided that one day he would seek justice for Phyllis.
Mu Yunfan believed that he could accomplish that one day, because he was a person with a system.
However, Mu Yunfan didn't say it out loud, because he knew that saying it now would just be empty words and Phyllis had no reason to believe him.
The time quickly reached dinner time, and the two continued to be busy. Phyllis constantly went outside to attract customers, came in to help, and then went outside again to attract customers.
Mu Yunfan couldn't help but be shocked once again by the super beautiful girl's attractiveness. He had previously thought of many ways to attract customers, but none of them could easily attract a large number of customers like Phyllis could.
Although Phyllis was still a bit unfamiliar with the work and sometimes made mistakes with orders, overall, everything went very smoothly.
They made it through the peak dinner time while being busy, and it wasn't until the shop closed at 9pm that Mu Yunfan sat in front of the counter to count today's earnings, while Phyllis wiped the tables with a towel.
Mu Yunfan watched Phyllis carefully bending over to wipe the tables.
Her silver hair was unbelievably beautiful. The Elf girl, who should have belonged to a different world from himself due to her noble birth, appeared in the shop and turned the quiet little store into a bustling one, working diligently with him to run the shop.
Mu Yunfan suddenly felt like he was dreaming.
Today, he had thought that Phyllis, who came from a noble background, would not be able to handle it. However, throughout the entire day, Phyllis' hard work made it impossible to perceive that she was a noble heiress. But observing her proper behavior, there was no doubt that she was a girl from a noble family.
Phyllis gave off the impression of having the education of a noble, but without any of the delicacy that usually comes with it, instead being extremely hardworking.
Moreover, Mu Yunfan had initially worried that a girl with such a noble background would be arrogant and temperamental, and might easily argue with customers. However, throughout the day, she had faced challenges from some customers but never got angry, instead showing enough patience.
Good character, beauty, and capable.
Thinking about this, Mu Yunfan couldn't help but be stunned. My god, this is perfect, where else can I find such a great girl!
Phyllis, who was wiping the tables, noticed Mu Yunfan looking at her and asked curiously, "Mr. Mu Yunfan, is there something wrong?"
"Oh, nothing."
Mu Yunfan quickly averted his gaze and continued counting the earnings.
Gradually, his hands began to tremble and a look of disbelief appeared on his face.
Although he had anticipated that today's earnings would be much higher than usual, he didn't expect it to be this much higher!
Previously, there were less than thirty customers on average per day, but today, there were over two hundred! It was seven times more than before!
What did this mean?
Mu Yunfan had earned 10,000 points in two years from spending last night, but now he was earning money seven times faster, so he only needed one-seventh of the time, three and a half months, to earn it back?No, no, no, that's not how it's calculated!
Mu Yunfan's system has a very tricky aspect, which is that it calculates points based on pure profit, not revenue! Settlement is done once a month.
Let's say Mu Yunfan's shop follows a low-cost route and makes an average profit of 5 Bells per customer. The currency unit in this world is Bells, so it's a profit of 5 Bells.
With an average of thirty customers per day, that's a profit of 150 Bells per day and 4,500 Bells per month.
The rental fee in this world is not cheap, even though Mu Yunfan's shop is relatively affordable at 2,000 Bells. Adding the monthly cost of 1,000 Bells for energy magic crystals, 500 Bells for water, and 500 Bells for management, the total cost of running the shop is 4,000 Bells. Deducting this cost, Mu Yunfan's monthly profit is only 500 Bells.
So, Mu Yunfan can only earn 500 points in a month of hard work.
But now, with 200 customers per day, earning 5 Bells each, that's 1,000 Bells per day and 30,000 Bells per month. After deducting the 4,000 Bells cost, the monthly profit reaches 26,000 Bells!
This means earning 26,000 points in a month!!!
In other words, Mu Yunfan can double the 10,000 points spent last night in just one month!
Mu Yunfan looked at the calendar. Today was the middle of the month, and there were still sixteen days left until the end of the month settlement. With these sixteen days, Mu Yunfan can earn 16,000 Bells, deducting the operating costs, resulting in a pure profit of 12,000 Bells, which means earning 12,000 points.
In the system, Mu Yunfan can treat ordinary dishes as regular delicacies and the lowest requirement is 11,000 points.
This means that in half a month, Mu Yunfan can purchase a regular delicacy from the system!
According to the system description, even the most ordinary regular delicacy in this world has a level of deliciousness far beyond the majority of food.
What does this mean? This means higher profits, faster point earnings, and learning more recipes.
Then, Mu Yunfan can open a bigger shop, earn points even faster, improve his skills, and learn various techniques.
Thinking about all this, Mu Yunfan couldn't control the excitement that made his breathing accelerate involuntarily.
Suddenly, Mu Yunfan felt a clear sense that for the past three years in this strange world, he had been living a mediocre life every day, and now, the time for his takeoff had finally arrived! A more exciting world was waiting for him!
Mu Yunfan trembled with excitement, unable to control himself, stood up and rushed to Phyllis, embracing her waist and spinning around on the spot.
"Hahaha, this is great, this is great! Phyllis, thank you, I love you so much!"
Phyllis was being spun around by Mu Yunfan and could hardly maintain her balance. Finally, the spinning stopped. At this moment, Phyllis was blushing and embarrassed because of Mu Yunfan's sudden action and his proclamation of love. However, seeing how happy Mu Yunfan looked, she felt like he had encountered something truly wonderful.
Blushing, Phyllis asked, "Mr. Mu Yunfan, w-what happened?"
Mu Yunfan saw Phyllis's flushed face and realized that his action just now was a bit abrupt, so he quickly let go of her.
"S-sorry. It's just that business was really good today, and I got a bit carried away."
Suddenly, Mu Yunfan thought of something and asked, "Phyllis, the shop's success is all thanks to you. Are you willing to continue helping in the shop?"
Mu Yunfan looked at Phyllis with concern. Although Phyllis had already mentioned that she wanted to help, after a day of work, she must have realized that helping in the shop was not easy and quite tiring, unlike the life she was used to as a noblewoman. Mu Yunfan worried that Phyllis might not want to continue, knowing that if she left, he would have to wait another two years.
Phyllis was taken aback. When Mu Yunfan had asked her about her decision for the future, she hadn't answered because she hadn't made up her mind at that time.After today, although a bit tired, she felt a sense of satisfaction. She felt needed by others. More importantly, she realized that she really enjoyed being with Mu Yunfan. She wished to stay here.
She found herself really wanting to stay here, so she couldn't help but worry whether Mu Yunfan would let her go if he was not satisfied with her. She had made several mistakes today, spilling food and having Mu Yunfan personally apologize to the customers.
What Phyllis didn't know was that this was her first time working as a shop assistant, and she was already doing very well considering how busy it was.
Therefore, she couldn't help but worry that Mu Yunfan would let her go because he was not satisfied with her. But now, hearing Mu Yunfan's words...
At this moment, infinite joy rose in Phyllis' heart. She revealed a dazzling and beautiful smile, nodding vigorously.
"I'm willing!"
