January 1, New Year’s Day.

New year, new start.

At 6:05 in the morning, I was supposed to sleep in the luxurious private room in Car No. 1 of the Grand Theme Hotel at the train station, and I slept until the alarm clock rang at 6:30 in the morning. Then I reluctantly opened my eyes, pressed the alarm clock, and fell back to sleep.

At this time, Jiang Qi was neatly dressed and sitting on the sofa in the living room of the dollhouse, quietly drinking an iced Americano.

I don’t know if it’s American-style Jiang Qi, but the ice is real ice.

Pour a full cup of ice cubes into a small cup of freshly ground coffee. Even without adding much sugar, the bitter taste of the coffee is diluted a lot, but the aroma is still the same.

"Not bad." Jiang Qi put down the cup, "Lili, your iced American style is quite qualified. It's very iced and it's coffee. If you sell it for 30 yuan a cup in our amusement park, no one will say anything."

Old John, sitting on the sofa, drinking warm freshly ground coffee and watching the morning news on his mobile phone:?

Is the definition of iced American style very iced and coffee?

"Thank you Banban." Lili happily threw herself into Jiang Qi's arms, "Is Banban really not short of money? Do you really don't want Lili to give Banban the money from selling coffee?"

Jiang Qi patted Lili on the head: "You'd better make back the more than 1,000 yuan you lost first."

After buying more than 200 kilograms of coffee beans and selling the freshly ground coffee for 5 yuan a cup, Jiang Qi really couldn't figure out how Lili, a little guy, calculated profits.

Even if you can't calculate the addition and subtraction of more than 20, you can at least find that you are losing money with such a huge difference.

In the end, Lili didn't realize that she lost more than 1,000 yuan because Jiangcha calculated it for her. Jiangcha calculated it for her. Lili still didn't believe it. She thought she was in business to make money, so how could she lose money? It must be so.

Jiang Cha made a miscalculation.

Moreover, Lili only lost more than 1,000 yuan from selling coffee in a month. This was entirely because Wang Xinghua, Jiang Cha and Huang Fugui did not drink coffee. Old John also only had one cup each in the morning and evening recently. They only drank a few cups a day to support Lili.

Li lost more than 1,000 yuan.

It might not be enough even if you have to pay for being a house elf this month.

After knowing that Lili was doing business at a loss just to save money for himself, Jiang Qi thought of directly replenishing the money Lili lost and give Lili an extra 1,000 yuan in salary next month.

As a result, Jiang Qi discovered on the second day that it was useless to give Lili money. This little devil was addicted to selling coffee. Although she could only make freshly ground coffee without milk or sugar, she had a regular customer, Old John, 30

On that day, Lili sold coffee as usual, and it still cost 5 yuan a cup.

She was still unhappy when Old John didn't buy it. She pouted and asked Old John if there was any other coffee outside. He wanted to drink coffee outside, so he didn't come to patronize her business.

In order to save Lili's wallet, which was destined to gradually dry up, Jiang Qi simply helped her start the coffee business.

Isn't it just selling coffee? There are many customers in the amusement park.

Jiang Qi opened a new Dollhouse Cafe in the amusement park in one day, which cannot dine in and can only deliver. He posted the QR code for coffee ordering on all the tables in the amusement park. Even the ones in Old John’s classroom

There are signs posted on the desks and study room tables. Scan the QR code to order.

After scanning the code, there are only two items, iced Americano and freshly ground coffee, both priced at 30 per cup.

Iced Americano is what Jiang Qi just drank. To put it bluntly, it is freshly ground coffee with ice, and the amount is the same.

Freshly ground coffee comes in a small cup, and iced Americano comes in an extra large cup.

Lili produces and Wang Xinghua delivers. Each cup of Lili requires Wang Xinghua to pay a delivery fee of 3 yuan. Wang Xinghua happily took over this business.

Anyway, the amusement park is so big, and Wang Xinghua flies invisibly to deliver goods, so I don’t know how efficient it is.

Jiang Qi had already thought about it. If Lili's coffee couldn't be sold, he would give the employees at the amusement park a coupon for a 10% discount on Dollhouse Coffee, and he would make up for the discount.

It doesn't cost much.

Spending one or two thousand a month to buy Lili's happiness is quite worthwhile.

Lili is very happy now.

Jiang Qi chatted with Lili for a while, and seeing that the time had reached 6:30, he asked, "What time does the staff canteen open?"

"It's open now." Huang Fugui, who was studying how to make roast turkey in the kitchen, said, "Boss, if you are hungry, you can go have breakfast now. I won't go today. I will eat roast turkey later."

"Uncle Huang, are you confident in the roast turkey you made today?" Wang Xinghua came down from upstairs with her mouth watering.

"No." Huang Fugui frowned and told the truth.

"Then I'll go to the cafeteria to eat later." Wang Xinghua went to the bathroom to get her hair done, leaving Huang Fugui alone in the kitchen to study why roasting lamb chops was OK but roasting turkey was not.

"I feel like there's something wrong with the tutorial I searched for online, otherwise why what I made in the video is different from what I made. It doesn't make sense."

"Is it because the models of ovens are different?" Huang Fugui failed to pass the exam at the beginning. "Or is there something wrong with the turkey I bought? I bought the most expensive one online. There is no way there is something wrong with my craftsmanship."

Bar?"

"There must be something wrong with this tutorial!"

"Lili, Apple."

As soon as Huang Fugui finished speaking, a red apple in the fruit basket in the living room floated up and flew to the chopping board.

The next second, the TV cabinet was pulled open by a pair of invisible hands, and the small notebook inside flew precariously in front of Lili, opened it, and turned to Huang Fugui's accounting page.

Lili reached out and pressed it, and there was a small red dot on the fourth grid of Huang Fugui's page.

This is the accounting book specially prepared by Lili for Old John and Huang Fugui. It is separate from the performance appraisal book of the haunted house employees. There are 1,000 cells on each page of this accounting book. Huang Fugui and Old John consume Lili every time

A red dot will appear.

When it was time to settle the accounts at the end of the month, Lili was responsible for counting the pages, and Wang Xinghua was responsible for helping her count the number of red dots on the pages that were not full. It was a standard stupid method, but Lili liked it very much.

It is said that she initially wrote the correct characters, but she couldn't count the correct characters, so she just highlighted them in red.

"I think I heard upstairs that I wanted to eat in the cafeteria." Jiang Cha came out of the wall and straightened his clothes.

Today she was dressed in woolen style, with a large mesh woolen cape, woolen skirt, cashmere jacket, thick stockings, and short boots, which didn't look very warm.

Jiang Cha put on a woolen hat and a cashmere scarf, moved her fingers and the teacup on the coffee table flew into her hand: "Let's go."

"Master Bai made breakfast this morning. He made white sugar cakes, sweet-scented osmanthus cakes, brown sugar steamed buns, fresh meat buns, beef buns, xiaolongbao and shortbread."

"So rich?!" Jiang Qi jumped up immediately, "Then what are you waiting for? Let's go!"

"The shortbread will be ready in about 7 minutes," Jiang Cha said unhurriedly.

"Oh, there's no rush." ​​Jiang Qi sat back again. The haunted house is close to the staff canteen, and it can be reached in 3 or 4 minutes on foot.

"But why did Master Bai take the initiative to stop making breakfast today?"

Master Bai is not responsible for making breakfast today. As long as Jiang Qi lives in the amusement park, he will check in advance who will be responsible for breakfast on the second day.

"Master Bai said that there will be a new era in the new year, and he will show everyone his triple salary today on New Year's Day."

"Let's go, let's not wait any longer." Wang Xinghua hurriedly floated out of the bathroom and landed, "There must be a lot of people in the cafeteria today. Today is the first day of the New Year's Day event. Manager Hu sent a notice to the work group last night

, everyone must be at the amusement park at 7:00 this morning. Those who live nearby will definitely come early."

"Let's go!" Wang Xinghua was the first to go out.

"Then let's go." Jiang Qi followed closely.

Jiang Cha smiled and followed with a thermos cup.

Old John glanced at the unfinished coffee, thought for a while, and said to Lili on the sofa: "Lili, please help me keep the coffee warm, and ask Xinghua to deliver this cup of coffee to my office later.

I’ll send it to her directly via WeChat.”

"Okay." Lili happily pressed a red dot on Old John's page.

Walking in the amusement park, breathing the air that was no different from yesterday, that is, last year, Jiang Qi took the unfinished iced American and sighed to Old John: "Teacher John, I finally understand why you don't have any interest in the warmth spell."

Interested."

Every morning when I wake up and sit in the living room, I see scenes that are more magical than the magical world. A little warming spell is nothing.

Lili can also control the temperature, although only within the dollhouse.

Old John did not answer Jiang Qi's words, but glanced at the Man Bingbing American in his hand and asked: "Boss, aren't your hands cold?"

Jiang Qi didn't wear gloves.

If there is any difference between the new year and the past year, it is probably that the new year brings new temperatures. Today the temperature plummeted to -1℃.

It has been so long since winter, and the temperature has dropped below 0 degrees for the first time, which is considered a good weather preparation for New Year's Day.

Old John is now a human being. Even though he is thickly dressed and fully armed, he can still feel the terror of the southern magic attack, and he can't wait to fly to the employee canteen as soon as possible.

The staff canteen is air-conditioned.

"It's not cold." Jiang Qi calmly took a sip of iced Americano outside at -1°C.

Old John:?

You were playing with 25℃ and 4℃ in the classroom two days ago, and you were shivering at 4℃. Now you are not cold anymore?

"It's really not cold." Jiang Qi saw the doubt in Old John's eyes, "I used a warming spell on this coat. The effect of the warming spell on the clothes is not reduced, but the usage time is reduced by 20%."

"If you reduce it by 20%, you can also use it for 96 days for three months. When the weather gets warmer in April, it will be enough." Jiang Qi said that once you have money, you should be kinder to yourself, and you must use the magic spell for spending money.

Old John was moved.

"Is it effective?"

"It's very good. The feeling of walking outdoors in this dress is the same as walking in the classroom. In short, it is very magical. Would you like me to lend you the jacket to wear it for two seconds to experience it?"
