Chapter 211: Windfall (Part II)
The scorching sun was in the sky, and the lively atmosphere of the citrus festival venue made the temperature of the scene rise a lot.
Dora, who likes to be lively, is in the right place. In addition to freshly harvested citrus, there are also a variety of citrus-based foods and cold drinks.
Although she couldn't get the pocket money from Evan, she felt a little heartache when she paid for it herself, but when the delicious food was in her stomach, all the unhappiness was swept away.
Evan didn't have the energy and energy of Dora, and since he wasn't interested, he didn't have long to wander around and found a shady place to sit down and rest. Robert had the same idea, but Virginia forced him to follow Dora and Dorothy under the pretext that his sisters needed "knights" by their side.
So, as the two brothers and sisters, they rested comfortably, but Robert could only sweat profusely and follow his sisters all over the venue.
"Goo-goo-goo......"
The alarm in his stomach reminds Evan that it's nearly noon and it's time to eat.
He sent Bob to retrieve the three of Roberts, who had disappeared from nowhere, and then discussed with Virginia where to go for the lunch meal.
As for food, Virginia is a very casual person, not picky at all, she looked at the vendors with barbecue and roast chicken as the staple food in the venue, and said, "Why don't you find one here and eat whatever you want?"
"With Dora's temperament, I must have eaten a lot of 'snacks' this morning, and I guess my stomach is still bulging. ”
"It's a big possibility. Evan smiled knowingly, "It's okay to eat here, but aren't you a vegetarian?"
Virginia said indifferently: "It's okay to eat meat once in a while, and I'm not a Buddhist." ”
"Besides, there should be a stall selling vegetable salad here. ”
Seeing that his sister said this, Evan didn't care even more. It didn't take long for the three Robert siblings to return to Evan under the escort of Haynes, Bob and others. Then a large group of people went to the area where the cooked food was sold.
As he approached the barbecue stall step by step, the smell of fat and meat in the air made Evan lose his appetite.
The United States is a meat-eater's paradise.
There is nothing wrong with that.
Evan agreed.
At this time, it was mealtime, and there was a long queue in front of the barbecue stall.
Looking at it, this is not only the case, but the other vendors are not much different.
After consulting Robert and the others, Evan asked Bob Haynes to line up with him, and the lady and the child went to find a place to wait.
However, Dora is idle, and takes Dorothy and Robert to other vendors to "scout".
It didn't take long for Dora to trot back to Evan, who was halfway through the line.
"Evan, I found a hamburger seller that sells so fast that you don't have to wait in line. ”
Dora tilted her head and suggested earnestly, "Robert has already ordered there." ”
"Hamburgers?" Evan looked at the length of the line and asked, "Are you telling the truth?"
Dora frowned in displeasure, "Why am I lying to you, alas, don't think about it, come with me." ”
As she spoke, Dora took Evan's arm in a pulling gesture.
Of course, with Dora's strength, it was impossible to pull Evan.
Ivan was motionless and silently communicated with Bob, Haynes, and Virginia, who had walked back after seeing Dora's movements.
Or...... Skip the barbecue and eat a hamburger instead?
The three of them nodded indifferently.
Seriously, Bob and Haines certainly prefer to eat the roast, but ...... Who made Evan the boss?
Led by Dora, the group came to a mobile stall converted into a car. The vendors are not large, and there are only three chefs who make the food, plus a waitress who collects money, and the team is only four people.
Evan observes that the three people who make the food appear to be a father and son family.
As Dora said, there are a lot of people who come here to buy food, but they don't have to wait in line. It's almost a good food for the front feet, and after paying for it, the food for the back feet is baked.
The reason why they were able to do so quickly was simple: first, they served a small variety of food, the staple food was two different types of hamburgers with french fries and carbonated drinks, and second, their food was simple to make and the semi-finished products were prepared in advance.
After seeing how they operated, Evan suddenly became interested.
Isn't this the common model of Western-style fast food restaurant chains that became popular in the United States and even the world?
Dora stood in front of the stall, ordered herself chips and Coke, turned around and asked, "Brother Evan, what are you eating?"
Evan didn't answer directly, saying, "You order yours." ”
"Virginia, you order first, I'll take a look. ”
While others were ordering, Evan chatted with the busy chef, possibly the boss.
"Hey, looks like you're doing a good business. ”
The man closest to him, the chef in charge of making the cheeseburger, still has more than enough spare energy, so he didn't refuse Evan's call.
"Thank you, did the guest think of something to eat?"
"I've thought about it. Evan asked the waitress who ordered and collected the money for a hamburger and a Coke, and then chatted with the cook.
"Are you a family?"
"Yes. ”
"Why don't you put up a sign?"
"It's just a small stall, what kind of signboard do you want. ”
The waitress on the side chimed in, "Your drink, and the burger." ”
"Thank you. After taking a bite, Evan commented, "It tastes good, although it may be a little worse than the barbecue over there." ”
Hearing this, the chef frowned slightly.
"However, the price, and your speed, is worth the money!"
The chef furrowed slightly, "Thank you for the compliment." ”
"No, I'm just saying it casually. Well...... May I ask you how you usually open your store?"
The chef didn't seem to understand: "What do you mean?"
Evan changed his question: "I mean, do you have a permanent store?"
The chef replied, "Yes, but it happened to be renovated recently." ”
Evan asked, "Can you tell me the exact address?"
The chef didn't know why, hesitated, and didn't answer.
Evan said, "I'd like to talk to you guys when I have time. I haven't seen your mode of operation before. ”
"By the way, what do you call him?"
The chef thought for a moment and replied, "Morris, Morris MacDonald." ”
Mcdonald?
Hearing this name, Evan's pupils unconsciously retracted quickly.
McDonald's, McDonald's, Golden Arches!!
I have the impression that the McDonald's chain was indeed founded by a pair of brothers surnamed MacDonald. Of course, it wasn't the brothers who really grew it, but a milkshake machine seller named Ray Crocker.
If this MacDonald is McDonald's......
Evan narrowed his eyes, a smile on his face.
