Chapter 294 New Visitors
Malu opened at 5pm, and before 8pm all the two hundred servings of Extremely Tasty Storm Dongpo Pork were sold out, and the remaining dishes followed within half an hour. sold.
If you include the queuing time, people who come back after 7 o'clock will actually no longer be able to eat Dongpo Pork.
Seeing that the queue was already long enough, Ma Lu also put a sign at the end of the queue that the queue will end tomorrow.
After the last customer left, Ma Lu calculated today's income, which was 113,276 in total. After that, he called Little Snail and Wu Peipei, who worked part-time in the store, over and settled their wages for the previous week.
Because the two of them had to go to class, they could only pick part-time jobs during their free time. One worked for 18 hours and the other worked for 24 hours. Based on the hourly wages of 50 yuan an hour, they were 900 and 1,200.
Ma Lu directly forwarded the double amount to them via WeChat, "The extra money will be treated as a bonus."
Both of them were very happy when they heard this, especially Wu Peipei. The situation at her family was not very good. Well, the tuition is covered by the student loan you applied for, and you have to rely on yourself for accommodation and daily expenses.
Although working at the Universe Infinite Canteen is a bit hard, she can earn nearly 5,000 yuan a month. Plus, Malu will give out bonuses from time to time, which is enough for her and she can also save some. .
When they left, Ma Lu also gave He Xiaoqian 4,000 yuan, which was a pure bonus. As for her salary, it was settled monthly and paid on the 1st of every month.
Of course Mr. Ma would not treat himself badly after giving away gold coins to his employees.
A number was dialed quickly.
After more than half a month of test driving, he had basically experienced all the mainstream brands of cars in the market once or even twice, and it was time to make a decision.
Choosing a car is just like choosing a girlfriend, it can easily be confusing.
Especially for cars in the price range of around 500,000 yuan, they are basically both fat and thin, each with its own unique skills.
Some have cool looks, some have good chassis quality, some have excellent intelligence, some have a good driving experience, some have sofas, color TVs + large refrigerators, and a full ride experience, and some... have standards.
It was not easy to choose among them, so Ma Lu first used the elimination method to eliminate the oil trucks.
In addition to responding to the country’s call for energy conservation and emission reduction, it is mainly because of the rapid development of new energy in recent years. Compared with oil trucks of the same level, it does provide a lot.
Not to mention the 360 reversing camera, seat ventilation, steering wheel heating and other features that traditional luxury cars require payment for, there are also more generous materials, strong body structure, active and passive safety, and more fierceness. More power, smoother engine...
Fashionable little functions such as truly usable automatic parking, assisted driving, and one-button summoning are also emerging one after another, and great improvements have also been made in energy consumption and tuning.
Among new energy sources, Malu prefers pure electric vehicles rather than extended range or hybrid. This is mainly because only pure electric vehicles are not restricted in B city. It is quite painful to buy a car and not be able to drive it for a while.
After delineating the scope of pure electric vehicles, Ma Lu sorted out his needs. First of all, he still had some requirements for space. Because when opening a restaurant, it is inevitable that there will be times when he needs to carry goods, so the trunk cannot be too small. .
Then the car should have some business attributes. After all, he is also a businessman now. In addition to these two points, Malu also hopes that the battery life will be long enough, and the cltc must be at least 800, so a 50% discount in winter is at least It can run up to 400 kilometers, and charging it once a week is enough if you don’t run long distances.
Looking at it this way, Ma Lu felt that 09 was the most suitable. He was even ready to place an order. But one night, he and Lao Wang went out for a walk on No. 6 in the dead of night.
Passing a small house next to the community, Lao Wang suddenly stopped. "What's wrong?" Malu asked.
“A lot of energy is stored here.” Lao Wang said, staring at the hut in front of him.
Ma Lu followed his gaze and said, "Oh, it's a battery replacement station. There are indeed a lot of batteries in it, but they are just for cars, just like power banks."
said At this point, he suddenly paused, and an idea came to his mind.
Laowang’s charging problem was not completely solved. At first, he could only charge in a rental house. Later, after the restaurant opened, Laowang could charge in both a rental house and the Universe Infinite Canteen.
Compared with rental houses, the power of restaurants will be larger, and the charging time can be shortened accordingly. However, the normal operation of lighting, air conditioning, refrigerators and various kitchen equipment must be ensured first, and the remaining power will not be that much. .
But Lao Wang’s workload has increased now. He supports the kitchen of the restaurant by himself, and consumes electricity faster, so he now charges significantly more times per week than before, and the charging time is also longer. .
Ma Lu felt that he spent almost half of his time in front of the socket, and if he wanted to improve this situation, he had to find a more efficient way to replenish energy for Lao Wang.
In fact, what he initially focused on were supercharging piles. Those supercharging piles that replenish energy for new energy are widely distributed in urban areas, and their power is large enough. The most common ones are basically above 120kw, with the highest The peak power can even reach 600kw.
There is also a problem with overcharging, that is, it is easy to be bumped into by other people. After all, overcharging piles are built in open areas, so they will definitely not be usable during the day. According to Ma Lu’s observation, even in the early morning, There will also be sporadic online taxis charging there.
But if it is a battery replacement, there will be no such trouble.
It only takes 5 minutes to get a nearly fully charged battery. After charging, Lao Wang can return the empty battery to the battery exchange station and get a new battery immediately without affecting the use of the Malu car. , the energy replenishment efficiency is greatly improved.
And from now on, all power swap stations in the city can become Lao Wang’s energy storage stations.
Thinking about this, Ma Lu changed his mind again, and finally changed his order to es8.
He deliberately chose a large 100-kWh battery, and then basically filled up the available configurations. Counting various discounts, it was almost 600,000 yuan, which was a bit over the budget, but it was not a big problem.
The only regret is that I heard that the initial unlimited free battery swap rights have been cancelled, otherwise Lao Wang should be able to directly charge the car company until it goes bankrupt.
After rewarding himself and solving Lao Wang's energy replenishment problem, Malu returned his attention to the daily operation of the restaurant.
And just on Wednesday night, the Universe Infinite Canteen welcomed another special guest.
The person was wearing a long black skirt that wrapped her body, and a wide-brimmed hat on her head, which was also black. In addition, her face He was also veiled and had gloves on his hands.
When he saw her for the first time, Malu almost thought An Qi was here again.
Because except for idol stars, few people would wrap themselves up so tightly, but she was obviously smaller and thinner than An Qi.
