Tokyo: Am I the only male tenant?

She put her hands on her knees and gasped for breath.

Ginjo Sosuke took the opportunity to look inside the stall and saw that the students in the cooking class all had frowns on their faces and looked nervous.

The students who were in charge of reception and cleaning the table seemed to have lost their composure and looked at a loss.

"The class...the stall in the class..."

"The class stall is in crisis, Ginjo-san!"

After adjusting her breathing, Yuki Mizutani finally said loudly...

Chapter 59: Battle to Save the Stall

"Mizutani-san, what happened?"

Looking at Yuki Mizutani who was like an ant on hot pot, Sousuke Ginjo was confused.

"It's really too much to handle, Ginjō-san. Anyway, I was on the verge of collapse when I got to the scene!"

Yuki Mizutani said this while looking in the direction of the stall.

"The first reason is that the number of customers keeps increasing. It may be because the food tastes so good. After dining, customers spread the word about the restaurant, which leads to a large influx of tourists."

"The more people line up, the more other tourists passing by will think that this stall is delicious and they must try it, which leads to the current situation."

This is probably the herd mentality, right? However, the customers queuing up now are not shills, but real users waiting to consume.

Yuki Mizutani took a breath and continued.

“The second reason is that we seriously misjudged the number of people on duty. Based on last year’s experience, we also arranged seven students to run the stall together this time.”

"I thought we already had enough people, so I didn't reserve any temporary support. But when I found out I was overwhelmed, I couldn't find any students to help."

Ginjo Sousuke thought about it and realized that in addition to the classmates who were operating stalls in the class, there were also some clubs that might help out, and some popular clubs would also run their own stalls.

In addition, most of the students who were not assigned any tasks were free to do whatever they wanted.

Now they are probably strolling around the stalls, listening to concerts or going on dates with their lovers.

"Calm down, Mizutani-san. I'll find a solution."

Originally, the stall plan was proposed by Yincheng. Now that this situation has occurred and I just happened to arrive, I must help.

He made a brief analysis and found that there was a imbalance between the order volume and the ability to process orders, and the entire cycle was in a vicious cycle.

If the number of guests is normal, seven people might not be a big problem.

However, due to the strong publicity effect, a large number of customers have flocked to the hotel.

These people have to deal with a variety of different tasks such as selling meal coupons, managing orders, cooking, plating, serving, clearing tables, etc. No matter how hard they try, they just can't cope with it.

There are now two options before Ginjo Sosuke.

The first thing was to temporarily ignore the customers in line and focus on contacting classmates for support.

But is it time to ask for help? Interrupt everyone's happy time?

Ginjo suddenly recalled what happened during the precious holidays in his previous life when he was a corporate slave.

Take a long nap until you wake up naturally, then catch up on a new anime series, play a game you bought a long time ago but haven’t finished playing, or open a learning website in your favorites...

Just when I was enjoying this slight sense of excitement, a call for overtime suddenly came in.

Ah! Thinking about it now still makes me feel so heartbroken.

Now everyone is enjoying their school festival. If I and Lisa Shiraishi received a call for help in the planetarium just now, I think they would feel uncomfortable.

Therefore, even if you send a message in the class group now, I guess no one will respond positively.

But at the same time, we didn’t want the stall that we had worked so hard to set up to be closed down abruptly because of the slow food service, which caused strong dissatisfaction among the customers and left bad memories.

So after much thought, we can only rely on the current people to hold the scene and solve the problem.

"Don't contact anyone else, I'll help, and then we'll get everything done as best we can."

Ginjo Sosuke sorted out his thoughts and spoke seriously.

"I'll help too, Ginjō-san."

Lisa Shiraishi beside her also wanted to help.

"Is it really possible? Shiraishi-senpai."

"Well, no problem. Our class has been running the stall for three years and everyone is familiar with it, so I won't be needed after the preparations are completed."

"That's good, now we have one more helper."

Ginjo Sousuke nodded to Shiraishi Lisa.

"Thank you so much, Ginjo-san and Shiraishi-san."

"But even though we have the help of the two of you, isn't it still too difficult to handle this number of guests?"

When Mizutani Yuki heard that there were two more helpers, she hurriedly thanked them, but she still had some concerns.

"Now we have to devote our energy to calling for external assistance, which will definitely affect the speed of serving food."

"If we work together and give it a try, there's only an hour left, so we should be able to make it through!"

Ginjo Sousuke's tone was irresistible.

"I agree with Ginjo-san's opinion."

Lisa Shiraishi was the first to express her support.

"Yeah, it seems difficult but I agree. If I think about it carefully, I feel that looking for help now will only make things more complicated!"

Yuki Mizutani was also completely convinced.

"Well, now that we have decided on the policy, the next step is how to operate it with the people on the scene."

"We will reallocate staffing now."

After getting the consent of the two people, Yincheng nodded vigorously and prepared for the next work.

"Mizutani-san, which type of ramen is the best-selling one right now?"

"It's definitely Sapporo Ramen. What are you going to make, Ginjō-san?"

"Well, Shiraishi-senpai, please be in charge of selling meal tickets and taking orders. Try to recommend Sapporo Ramen to the waiting customers. This single item will definitely increase the speed of serving meals."

"Ok, I see."

Lisa Shiraishi nodded.

"Okamoto! Come here for a moment."

Ginjo called out loudly to Ryuichi Okamoto who was cleaning the table.

"When I passed by just now, I found that some stalls still had vacant tables and chairs. Please go and borrow some. We will try to create more dining seats here."

Ryuichi Okamoto made an OK gesture, and his expression, which usually looked lazy, became serious.

"Then Mizutani and I will be in charge of serving the food and clearing the table, and the rest of the work will be left to the students in the cooking class."

"Ginjō-san, your finger..."

Lisa Shiraishi gently pulled Ginjo's sleeve to remind him.

"My hand is fine, don't worry, Shiraishi-senpai."

After assigning the tasks, everyone quickly returned to their respective posts.

Lisa Shiraishi let her half-long silver hair loose and tied it into a bun on top of her head, revealing her snow-white neck.

She picked up the menu and, while calming down the anxious tourists, she sold the meal coupons as Yincheng had asked.

A serious student council president makes people feel particularly trustworthy.

When the students in the cooking class saw that support had arrived, they also became more motivated.

At the school festival that was packed with customers, Ginjo Sosuke, wearing festival clothes, Shiraishi Lisa and other classmates started a battle to save the stall...

Chapter 60 Celebration Banquet

"Table number one! Sapporo ramen for three!"

Ginjo Sousuke loudly repeated the number of dishes and table number reported by Shiraishi Lisa, who was in charge of taking orders.

Although some people think that this repeated confirmation of orders is unnecessary, he thinks it is a way to prevent errors and improve efficiency.

"Okay, sorry for the wait!"

"Oh, sorry! If you want to add more dishes, you have to buy a meal ticket!"

Lisa Shiraishi, Yuki Mizutani, Ryuichi Okamoto and other students in the cooking class, everyone was concentrating on completing their work.

The queue that was very long just now is now shortening at a speed visible to the naked eye!

Although there are still many tourists waiting, with the current efficiency, Sosuke Ginjo feels that they can handle it.

"Shiraishi-senpai, please appeal to the waiting tourists once more."

"Okay, Ginjo-san."

"Dear tourists, because there are so many people at the moment, please wait a moment!"

"Our specialty is Sapporo ramen, everyone is welcome to try it!"

After the kimono-clad beauty Lisa Shiraishi made such a loud announcement, the customers who had been anxious because of the slow serving of the dishes relaxed their expressions, and the atmosphere in the entire stall became a little more relaxed.

Ginjo Sousuke gave her an approving look, and Shiraishi Lisa nodded in response. The tacit understanding between the two of them no longer required too many words.

Thanks to everyone's efforts, the stall that was on the brink of collapse is now operating in an orderly manner with extremely high efficiency.

More than an hour later, the sun began to slowly tilt towards the west, and the entire school festival was coming to an end.

With everyone's concerted efforts, the long queue was finally cleared before the end of the festival.

Tourists who tasted the delicious ramen left with high praise, which made everyone breathe a sigh of relief.

After serving the last table of guests, everyone shouted excitedly.

It was as if an impossible task had finally fallen at their feet.
