As he spoke, Asahi Azumane gazed into the distance. A rich aroma was wafting from there. Looking closely, it was Soma Yukihira and his group selling fried noodles. The moment the fried noodles were launched, they instantly snatched away most of the customers at the scene.
For a time, except for the few of them standing at the entrance of Xingye Restaurant, all the customers crowded at Yukihira Diner. This also made the front of the other shops incredibly empty, with only a few scattered passing customers at their entrances.
"Should we go over there? It smells so good, and the aroma seems even richer than here."
"What are you saying? We've been waiting here for so long. The food here isn't necessarily worse than over there, and besides, there are so many people over there. If we queue, it will definitely take longer than here."
"Exactly, being fickle is not good."
"Then let's wait a bit longer..."
Chattering sounds came from the entrance, all heard by Hoshino Sora.
However, he was not in a hurry. If he, the Ten Elite First Seat, couldn't handle such a small difficulty, then he would be too useless.
Soma Yukihira, the strongest opponent in this final exam.
The shop accommodated Kurokiba Ryo, Hayama Akira, Takumi, and the Polar Star Dormitory residents from the beach competition area, finally launching their special smoked squid ink egg fried noodles.
As soon as this product was sold, it instantly ignited the entire scene, with the half-boiled onsen egg injected with shrimp shell essence in the middle as the explosive point, attracting the entire beach through takeout customers, and ultimately drawing most of the customers on the beach.
"Hoshino Sora, we should be able to surpass you now!"
Looking at the Xingye Restaurant, which remained motionless, Soma Yukihira's eyes were full of fighting spirit. Although the room they were assigned was also relatively dilapidated, it was not as outrageous as Hoshino Sora's.
A few of them spent the day doing minor repairs and then directly opened for business.
And their goal was naturally to surpass Hoshino Sora in turnover, thereby proving their strength.
It was fine when they weren't open, but once they opened, everyone on the scene was attracted by their cooking. The aroma, like a bomb, constantly attracted passersby on the beach, and soon the front of the shop was surrounded by customers.
Looking at Hoshino Sora's side, there were only a handful of about ten people waiting at the shop entrance, but they hadn't officially started business yet. The two sides were clearly demarcated, and an invisible storm was unfolding here.
"Are you all full?"
"Yes, we are."
"Almost, but not hungry. A late-night snack will be fine."
"Me too, waiting for a late-night snack."
Looking at the empty plates in front of him, Hoshino Sora looked up at the few people in front of him and received unanimous nods. Although some were not full, they were not hungry either. Everything was ready.
"Then let's start business! According to the plan made this morning."
With passion burning in his eyes, Hoshino Sora pulled the shop door wide open, his gaze fixed on the customers attracted by Soma Yukihira, and the three-person team working enthusiastically at the shop entrance.
"Is it finally starting?"
"I've been impatient for a long time."
Yumeko Jabami and Hisako Arato immediately showed excited expressions upon hearing Hoshino Sora's words. Five people, three million Japanese yen in sales in three days.
According to Xingye Restaurant's price of two thousand Japanese yen per dish, they would need to sell approximately one thousand five hundred dishes.
The night crowd on the beach is roughly between two thousand and four thousand. After tasting the fried noodles from Soma Yukihira's shop, quite a few people were already wandering on the beach again.
"You've waited a long time, haven't you? Since you are our first batch of customers and you've waited here for so long, I've decided to give you these dishes for free. However, I hope you can eat them in the center of the beach, near that shop over there.
Also, please help us promote them. The price is two thousand Japanese yen, and the dishes are random, but no matter the ingredients or the taste, they are definitely worth the price you pay."
Handing out the dishes, which were contained in special bento boxes, to Kiyoko Shimizu and her group, Hoshino Sora wore a sunny smile. This smile made Kiyoko Shimizu blush for a moment, stammering for a long time before she could speak, until Shoyo Hinata next to her reminded her, and she shyly accepted the dishes.
How could this be? How could there be such a handsome man in the world!
"Then thank you, boss. We'll be leaving now. If it tastes good, we'll come back tomorrow."
He glanced at the price on the sign at the shop entrance, two thousand Japanese yen per serving. However, if the taste was good, the price, though a bit expensive, was not unacceptable.
