Chapter 1078: Would you like to eat a leg for 800 yuan?
Heath felt that he had fallen. He had been thinking before that Pokémon must not be used as food, but now he found the chicken legs of the Strong Chicken delicious and wanted to have another one. This made Heath a little amused and helpless, but when he thought of this specially bred Strong Chicken, Heath became calm. After all, this Strong Chicken was specially bred, just like the breed of chicken on Earth in his previous life, except that this breed of chicken was more unique and tasted better. There was no problem eating it himself. The Alliance was very strict. Any Strong Chicken that exceeded the edible level would be sent away. Even the Fire Chicken had such a testing process. Only those Fire Chickens that perfectly met the edible standards would be bred into Strong Chickens for consumption, so Heath did not need to have any special psychological burden.
"This chicken leg tastes really good, and the portion is big. For an adult, one chicken leg is enough to fill up. After all, it is quite heavy. But if it is used to entertain guests, the cost issue is a bit troublesome." Heath touched his chin. The taste of this strong chicken is really good, and it can be made so delicious in this way. The only problem is that the cost is too high, so the price cannot be too cheap.
A chicken leg can be sold at a high price of several hundred, and even thousands for profit. It is really not affordable for ordinary people, not to mention the premium strong chicken legs. However, even if they are not premium chicken legs, but just ordinary chicken legs, the price is not affordable for ordinary families. The price of a strong chicken leg may allow an ordinary family to use it for a week or two, and it is not impossible to use it for three weeks if they save a little.
Heath knew that in his previous life, for a low-income family, more than 800 yuan would be needed for a month, and this also included other expenses, such as water and electricity. Heath had come across an old lady who was a low-income household when he was a volunteer. Her home was really bare, and she only received 720 yuan of low-income income a month. She had to use the 720 yuan to pay for phone bills, water and electricity bills, rent, and to buy groceries, rice, and oil. She lived very frugally. The only electrical appliance in her home was an old TV, the kind with a big butt that no one uses now. It was donated to her by someone else.
The old man was still trying hard to survive, because he could not do any work due to his old age, he could only pick up cardboard and bottles to sell for money to supplement the family income. Heath did not volunteer for a long time afterwards, because he felt that being a volunteer was a test for a person's body and mind. Being tired was not the main thing, but the main thing was that he had seen too many miserable people, and he was always in a depressed mood. He wanted to do something, but there was nothing he could do, so he could only try his best to help.
In the world of Pokémon, although such cases may be relatively rare, they are definitely not non-existent. So Heath is very clear that the drumsticks of this strong chicken are not for ordinary people to eat to some extent. If you want to eat without any worries, the family income must be at least very good. Otherwise, with a monthly salary of 3,000 yuan, a meal costs 800 yuan. How can you live? Rely on online loans?
"This chicken leg is okay, but it can't be the main dish. Just add it to the menu." Heath shook his head. This chicken leg can't be the main dish, but it can be added to the menu. When the time comes, if the customers see it and want to eat it, they can just eat it. If they don't want to eat it, they naturally won't order it. There is no malicious propaganda forcing consumption. Moreover, Heath also has chicken leg rice, but it uses very common chicken legs, and the price is not too high, so people can accept it.
Some restaurants' operations are quite disgusting. They will ask customers if they want to eat anything, but they will not proactively tell customers the ingredients. For example, salt-baked shrimps are all shrimps, but the prices of river shrimps and sea shrimps are different. Some restaurants even offer salt-baked shrimps made with Australian lobster after customers order. The price goes up instantly. Moreover, these restaurants are very good at judging people. They usually choose boys who come with girls to do this. Even if the boys find out that they have been cheated, they will still save face and sacrifice their wallets if there are girls sitting opposite them.
However, with the development of the Internet era, such outrageous operations have become less common, but they still exist in some places.
Heath, on the other hand, would not do such a thing as his restaurant always has clearly marked prices.
"Master, this chicken leg is so delicious." Xiaoyao had finished eating all the chicken legs. She sat on the chair contentedly and touched her belly. Heath wanted to laugh when he saw this. Xiaoyao really made him not know what to say. However, the restaurant would be open soon, so it would be a good idea to let Xiaoyao eat more so that she could toss the pot.
"Remember to flip the wok later. Your strength has increased a lot during this period. You will be able to proceed to the next step in a while." Heath glanced at Xiaoyao and reminded her. Xiaoyao nodded immediately, then blinked and pinched her arms. It seemed that she did have some muscles. This made Xiaoyao happy a lot. She finally saw the shadow of the other steps. Otherwise, she couldn't stand flipping the wok every day. During this period of time, she dreamed of flipping the wok at night.
There was even one night when Xiaoyao woke up in a daze and went to the bathroom, and he was subconsciously practicing flipping the pan with a paper tube. It was amazing.
Seeing Xiaoyao's happy look, Heath also smiled. It was really hard for her, having to toss the pot every day at such a young age. However, when he thought about how he had to be even younger to become a disciple in the past, Heath calmed down. It is not strange to learn skills at this age these days. Didn't you see that Kakashi became a Jonin at a certain age in the world of Naruto?
After parking the food truck, Heath sent messages to Sister Feng and his girlfriend Sirona, and then waited for the guests to arrive. However, when messaging Sister Feng, Heath still thought of everything he had experienced before, which made Heath feel a little bad. Fortunately, he had the Nightmare Flower, otherwise Heath didn't know when he could get out of it.
Although Heath knew that no one in this world could live forever after he learned the concept of life and death, and even his parents would leave him one day, Heath still sincerely hoped that this day would go slower, so that he could see his family's faces more often and have more good memories to spend his future journey.
