Chapter 53: The Cake Shop Gambles

After recuperating for more than a week, Mei Yi returned to the palace and found that Princess Ai Qilu's attitude had been much more restrained - it was obvious that she was afraid that Mei Yi would run to the queen to complain.

After the morning class, Mei Yi said: "Your Royal Highness, I have discussed with the queen, I will open two new courses for you, one is swimming, and the other is social practice." This afternoon, we started our social practice class. ”

Ai Qilu hurriedly said, "I don't want to take any swimming lessons!" What is a social practice class? ”

Mei Yi said, "Why don't you want to take swimming lessons?" If you are bored in the palace all day long, lack of exercise, it is not good for your health, and swimming can significantly improve your heart and lungs. The social practice class is to take you to take a walk outside the palace and learn about the situation outside. ”

Ai Qilu suddenly became interested, she said: "Can I only take social practice classes and not swim lessons?" ”

Mei Yi said, "No. Can you tell me the reason why you are reluctant to take swimming lessons? ”

Ai Qilu said with a flushed face: "I don't want a male teacher to teach me swimming lessons!" ”

Mei Yi smiled: "I see. Your Royal Highness Princess, you misunderstood, it was Mei Luke who taught you swimming lessons. Viscount Sakura is also interested in this, and will take this class with you, and I will definitely not be there. ”

Ai Qilu breathed a sigh of relief: "Then it's no problem." ”

In the afternoon, Ai Qilu took off all her jewelry, changed into ordinary clothes, and walked out of the palace with Mei Yi and Mei Luke, and went to the streets of the True Spirit to participate in social practice classes.

As a result, as soon as she came to the street of the true spirit, she completely let go of herself, the arrogance and anger on her face on weekdays completely disappeared, and her eyes flashed with excitement, completely like a little girl who was not deeply involved in the world.

Mei Yi asked Mei Luke to pull Ai Qilu back, and said to her with a tiger face: "Ai Qilu, we went to class when we came out, not for fun. In order to ensure your safety, please follow us at all times and do not run around. ”

Although Aiqilu was not very happy, she was ecstatic to be able to come out. You know, she had been in the palace for fifteen years before.

A few people walked to the door of a newly opened cake shop called "Fairy Spring", and the sign at the door read, "New store opens, cake 6% off". The two girls cheered for the cake, so Meiyi bought two catties and chatted with the fairy female store manager by the way.

Meiyi learned that the store manager's name is Yafen, and the location of this cake shop is good, but the competition among peers is too fierce, and there is no business after opening the store for more than a week, she wants to withdraw the store and return to her hometown.

Mei Yi smiled and said, "Yafen, you don't have to worry about it first. Maybe I have a solution. He turned to and asked Rose and Akilu, who were eating the cake slowly in the store, "Girls, what do you think of the taste?" ”

Mei Luke said: "Brother, you can also taste a piece, it is really delicious, and the price is not expensive." I can't figure out why no one came to buy it. ”

Mei Yi asked, "Then do you have any solutions?" ”

Meilu said without thinking: "The discount is bigger, for example, three or four folds, so that more people will come to buy." ”

Yafen smiled bitterly and said, "In this way, the more I sell, the more I lose." We are very particular about the ingredients we use, and the cost is not low. I don't want to lower the quality to deceive people. ”

Ai Qilu knew that Meiyi was mainly testing her, and after thinking for a while, she said: "I think the most important thing about the cake is the taste, and if it is delicious, people will naturally come to buy it, and slowly, the business of the store will become more and more prosperous." ”

Yafen sighed: "I'm afraid my store won't last until then." ”

Seeing Meiyi's unhappy face, Ai Qilu knew that he was not satisfied with himself and Mei Luke's answers, so she said, "Teacher Meiyi, if you have any good ideas, you might as well say it for everyone to hear, I'm afraid you won't have any good solutions." ”

Mei Yi smiled and said, "Of course I have a way. Within three days, I was able to get the Yafen store full of customers. ”

Ai Qilu said disdainfully: "It's nothing more than using the method of Meiluke to increase the discount, Yafen has already said that it will be unprofitable to do this." ”

"The discount will not be less than 60% off, and it guarantees that Yafen's store can be profitable," Meiyi said. How about it, do you want to gamble? ”

Ai Qilu's competitive spirit was aroused: "Bet on it, bet on what?" ”

Mei Yi smiled and said, "If I can't do it, I'll automatically quit, and it won't appear in front of your eyes in the future." What about you? If the bet is too small, it will make me look down on it. ”

Ai Qilu put down the spoon in her hand and said coldly: "If you can do it, I, Ai Qilu, will obey you and never embarrass you again." He will glorify you to the fullest when I stand on the highest place. That's okay, right? ”

Mei Yi smiled and said, "Yes." ”

Mei Yi whispered a few words to Ya Fen, Ya Fen looked embarrassed, and just when she hesitated, Mei Yi had already left the cake shop with Ai Qilu and Mei Luke.

According to the agreement, Sakura will come to Meiyi's house at 6 o'clock in the evening to pick up Princess Aiqilu back. After arriving at Meiyi's house, Ai Qilu sat in the living room, bored waiting for Sakura to come over.

Mei Yi and Mei Luke are cooking dinner in the kitchen.

Akiro sat for a while, feeling too bored, so she got up and looked around. She walked into Meiyi's study, picked up a stack of white paper full of writing on the table, and sneered: "The words are so ugly!" After turning a few pages, he exclaimed, "The illustrations are really beautiful." ”

With nothing to do, she read the page carefully, but slowly read it, until Sakura came in and called her, she put down the manuscript paper in her hand with some reluctance, restored it to its original state, and left the study.

When she was riding back to the palace, Ai Qilu suddenly said, "Sakura Dance, let's go to the 'Fairy Spring' cake shop in Zhenling Commercial Street." Mei Yi actually boasted that she could turn that cake shop into a profit in three days, and I couldn't wait to see his jokes. ”

Sakura smiled slightly, said a few words to the guard who was driving, and the guard turned the car around and drove towards Zhenling Street.

When Ai Qilu stepped out of the carriage and saw the sign in front of the "Fairy Spring" that said, "The new store is open, buy one pound of cake and get half a pound free, and the original price will be restored after a week", she sneered, "He lost." He said that he suggested that the discount given by Yafen would not be less than the original six discounts. Buy one pound and get half a pound, isn't this a five-percent discount? ”

Sakura nodded and thought to herself: It's strange, Mei Yi is the most famous mathematician in the Elven Kingdom, how could she make such a stupid mistake?

When the store closed, Yafen made a move that shocked everyone. She packed all the leftover cakes in bags, crushed them in front of everyone, and threw them in the trash.

When Yafen got down, he felt his heart dripping blood.

Agiro jumped into the carriage and thought, "You're done." In this way, Yafen is in a loss. Goodbye, Ms. Meiyi. I thought you had some real skills, but it turned out that you were just like those bombastic guys before, just on the surface.

I believe that this time, my mother will not stop me again. The people she hates the most are also those who are more powerful than anyone else, but in fact they are useless.
