Universe Infinite Canteen.

Chapter 2 Partnership
Don't we often have plots like this in novels and anime? One day, the male protagonist suddenly meets a beautiful girl of unknown origin. After that, his peaceful life is broken and he is involved in a magnificent adventure.

Like Kamijou Touma in "A Certain Magical Index" or Sakurai Tomoki in "Skyfall".

What Malu didn't expect was that he would encounter such a thing one day.

However, what he met was not a beautiful girl, but a middle-aged bald man wearing a jacket. The latter claimed that he was a mechanical life form from other universes and had lost most of his data (memory).

Moreover, it has been two weeks since Malu brought Lao Wang home, and he has not been in danger or been targeted by any strange organization. The only thing that can be called frightening is the electricity bill.

Ma Lu has already recharged nearly 3000 yuan, but now there is less than 26 yuan left in the account.

In addition, there is still no progress in finding a job. If this continues, next month's rent will be a problem.

Ma Lu moved his eyes to Lao Wang who was watching "The Legend of Zhen Huan" attentively.

"What is a eunuch?"

"Eunuchs are novel writers who don't end well." Ma Lu turned off the TV. "It's useless to watch palace dramas if you want to understand modern society, and we have more important things now."

"What is more important?" Lao Wang asked.

"make money."

Ma Lu said concisely, "If I don't have money, I won't be able to live here anymore, and you won't be able to use the sockets at will, sleep on the sofa in the living room, and watch TV dramas with the air conditioner blowing."

"That's quite important." Lao Wang's expression became serious.

"Do you have any ideas to make money?" Malu asked, "For example, using your... well, specialties. By the way, do you have any specialties?"

Ever since Lao Wang cut off the cafe's insurance, he has never shown any special abilities. For the past two weeks, he has been sitting in a rental house watching TV series day and night, just like a couch potato.

If it wasn't for the fact that he could help with cleaning, Malu would have thrown him back on the street.

"I can also cook." Lao Wang said.

This answer made Malu a little disappointed. As a visitor from another dimension, it stands to reason that he should have more powerful skills than cooking. But the housekeeping aunt can also do cooking and cleaning.

"I can cook all the food in the "Ingredients of the Multiverse", and we can open a restaurant to make money. Based on my observations during this period, I found that there are very few delicious foods in this universe, which is very suitable for opening a restaurant."

What Lao Wang said next made Malu's interest reignite, "So you are a cook?"

"I don't know. I lost many sectors. 7% of the data in the only intact and most important sector No. 79 is related to cooking, so your inference is very likely to be true."

Malu rubbed his chin, "But opening a store requires a lot of start-up capital. Even the initial investment in a roadside fly shop is not something we can afford now."

"By the way, if you want to open a restaurant, I have one more request."

Lao Wang seemed to have thought of something and pulled open his blue jacket. Malu saw the three metal round wires from before. They were wrapped around an egg and placed it on the coffee table.

"This insect egg can allow people to travel to other cosmic planes. I would like to entrust you to collect ingredients for me there."

…………

In September, the temperature in City B remained high, and the chirping of cicadas outside the window showed no sign of abating.

Ma Lu handed Lao Wang the partnership agreement he had just passionately drafted. He had downloaded it from the Internet ten minutes ago. There were still some clauses in it that he had not yet had time to delete, such as Party A’s investment in purchasing forty hens. pig.

But regarding equity, dividends, exit mechanisms and other core things have already been clarified.

However, after reading the cooperation agreement, Lao Wang said, "I don't need equity or dividends, as long as you allow me to continue to sleep on your sofa, charge my batteries, and watch TV."

"Really, are you sure?" Malu was a little surprised.

Lao Wang nodded, "Our silicon-based lifeforms don't have as many desires and needs as your carbon-based lifeforms. As long as the basic survival conditions are met, currency has little value to us."

"But you are suddenly so noble and you make me feel despicable." Malu thought for a while and simply tore up the cooperation agreement.

"Forget it, this thing probably won't have any real binding force on you. It's better not to think so far ahead. Let's earn next month's rent together first." Lao Wang was a little confused, "You Have you really decided to open a restaurant, but didn’t you say you don’t have the initial start-up capital?”

"It doesn't matter, how can such a small thing bother me? Give me half an hour." Malu patted Lao Wang on the shoulder and said confidently.

As a result, less than twenty minutes passed before Lao Wang was called downstairs by Ma Lu.

Parked in the open space in front of him was an electric tricycle with a body length of about 1.3 meters. It had a roof installed, and the roof was surrounded by light boxes with five large characters printed on it - Laozhi Small Seafood.

The car body below is also covered with billboards, and there is an advertising slogan in front of it - Come with a portion of the little seafood, and live a happy life like a fairy.

"How's it going? Are you satisfied with our new store that's about to open?" Ma Lu asked.

"But where is my chef?" Lao Wang wondered
Malu patted the nickel-plated rust-proof steel plate on the body of the tricycle, "When the time comes, you will cook here. The kitchen will be transparent, so customers can rest assured about their food."

"But the kitchen alone already takes up most of the space. Where will customers eat?"

"The street, the whole street is our lobby. They can eat wherever they want. The main theme is freedom."

"What about the waiter?"

"I'll do it." Ma Lu rolled up his sleeves and volunteered, "I used to work part-time as a tutor in college. It shouldn't make any difference since they are both in the service industry."

"but……"

"Stop being stubborn, you've never set up a stall or eaten at a roadside stall. Why are there so many mental retardation problems?" A fat man wearing a Giant T-shirt interrupted Lao Wang impatiently.

"Waiter, do you want me to open another bottle of red wine from 1982 and let you drink it with the snails? Damn it, people who pretend to be B are the most annoying. If you don't buy it, don't entertain me. I have to go back to fight the king." "

"Don't worry, don't worry, Brother Yang. This friend of mine came from the mountains and doesn't know anything when he first entered the city. Don't take his words to heart." Malu grabbed the little fat man who turned around and was about to go upstairs, "Your We want the car, please give us a price."

The little fat man's face improved a little after hearing this, and he looked at Lao Wang up and down, "You come from the mountains, don't you find a job as a programmer? Humph, that's okay, I'll give you a little advantage, give me 2500 yuan, and you can drive away." "

"Can it be cheaper?" Malu put his arm around the little fat man's shoulders and walked aside.

"It's already very cheap. When I bought the car, I spent 3600, and then I spent 800 to install the roof and brackets. Those PVC boards were also expensive. Now I've spent 2500 on my own. I'm very sincere."

"I know, but how many people in B City can live in the same building in such a big city, and because of this fate, can't we give our brothers a cheaper price?" Ma Lu activated his bargaining skills.

"One code equals one code. I have used this car twice in total and it is still as good as new. If I sell it to you for 2500, you have already made a profit." The little fat man warned, "Otherwise, I might as well sell it to someone else."

"But I heard that your car has been parked in the yard for several months. It doesn't seem to be that easy to sell, and your dad scolded you a lot for this..."

Malu lowered his voice, "I heard you two quarreling again last week. Brother Yang, don't say that my brother hasn't advised you. Keeping this thing will be a disaster. It's better to take action earlier."

The little fat man also had an ugly look on his face when he heard this. He is a native of City B. He has seven apartments at home. Even if he doesn't do anything, he can lie flat until he dies. Therefore, he has had little motivation since he was a child. If he doesn't study hard, he will eventually die. Only three books were published.

After graduation, he stayed at home playing games, watching cartoons, and playing with models. As a result, his father couldn't stand it anymore, so he forced him to set up a stall. Unfortunately, he only went there twice before quitting because it was too hard, and the car he just bought also stopped working. Throw it in the yard.

As soon as he saw the three-wheeled car, his anger would rise, and the father and son had many quarrels over this matter.

Xiaopang knew that what Ma Lu said made sense, and he had wanted to sell the car for a long time, so he gritted his teeth and said, "2100, no more."

"1666, let's get lucky."

The little fat man stared at Malu for half a minute, and then said in a hoarse voice, "Why isn't it 1888 for the lottery?"

"That's okay. Thank you, Brother Yang. Let's settle it then." Ma Lu grabbed the little fat man's hand and thanked him, "I'll pay you in three installments."

"You're not going to buy a luxury car, but you're going to buy a three-wheeler in installments?!" The little fat man's eyes widened.

Seeing the transaction, Huang Malu quickly increased his investment, "Also, you can leave the figure with me, so you don't have to worry about it being smashed by your father."
