“Is this not most Nak?” Anisa looked at the five pieces of fifty thousand coins in her hand. His eyes began to glaze over. He did not expect to get this much money from his son. This is some of the money his son makes from his own sweat.
Which mother is not proud when receiving the money given by her child. This means that her son is already an adult. They can already make their own money and share some of it with their families. Soon his son will be in the community.
It felt like just yesterday Anisa was holding a young Andi. Now he is mature and independent.
“Not really Bu. That's not most. In fact I want him to give more but surely mother refused. So I give you that. Electricity money so that I will pay every month. Later if I have more, money SPP Amira let me also pay.”
Hearing Andi's words like that, tears immediately flowed down Anisa's cheeks. “Mother's son is already big. I can make my own money. I've helped his parents meet the needs of home.”
Amira who was next to Anisa hugged her mother who was crying. “Mothers don't need to cry.”
Andi doesn't want to miss. He got up from his seat and squatted down next to the chair his mother was sitting in. Andi then clasped his mother's hand and squeezed it slowly. Andi then wiped away the tears on her mother's cheek.
“Yes mom's son is big now. So, mom and dad don't have to tire themselves out of working too hard. You guys are now just relaxing. Let Andi help father and mother with school sisters.”
“Thanks Nak.”
“Mother should not thank me. This is what I should have done as a child. This is my form of devotion to father and mother.” explained Andi. “Now mom stop crying huh. If later dad suddenly came and saw mom like this later dad would have made the same calculation I because it has made his beautiful wife cry.”
Hearing that, Anisa laughed softly. “Hahahaha.” Then she wiped her tears. “Your fathers will not dare to do that. If she's brave, she'll have me sleep in the living room.”
Andi smiled when she saw her mother laughing. Thank goodness her mother accepted the money. Otherwise he will be confused to find a way for his mother to accept the money given.
Now, Andi will express his intention to make Anisa as the store manager. That way, Anisa can earn even more money by just sitting down recording the number of sales that day. Andi can also give Anisa a salary in accordance with sales performance.
The more sales, the greater the salary that Anisa will receive. In this way, the money that Anisa earned was far more than her income so far.
“Bu, I'm the same Brian plans to open a store for dessert box sales. Later we will also sell brownies, cakes and such. Do you want to be in charge of the store in our city? How about mom, I want?”
“So the store's responsibility?”
“Iya. You just need to make a record of income and expenses from the store. I'm good at something like this every month. Later I will also find a more neat and detailed writing format. So you don't have to be confused later. How's bu?” ask Andi again.
“Why aren't you alone? Why should mom?”
“And I want to continue college ma'am. Oh yeah I forgot to tell this to mom and dad. I want to go to college. I'll pay for everything myself. So mom doesn't have to worry. So since I'm not going to be in this town, it's better for you to supervise the shop that's here. I plan to also open a branch in Surabaya. Maybe I'll take care of the ones there.”
“This is true? Do you already have the capital to open the store?”
“Eh…. If Brian agrees, I will too. You have to be honest in your business with Brian. Don't use him because you've been long.” Anisa's Advice.
“Of course mom. Of course I remember mother's advice.”
Andi can now breathe a sigh of relief. He managed to convince his mother to be the in charge of the store. In this way, Andi lived to find a place for him to rent and be used as a shop. The days ahead will be exhausting. There's still a lot to deal with.
Buy again orders that continue to enter through social media account Sweet Tongue. Of the many orders, Andi estimates that in three to four days he can complete his ten-jutana mission. Maybe after the mission was completed, Andi needed to temporarily stop ordering so that he could focus more on finding a shophouse that was suitable for his shop.
The other option is, keep taking orders by asking Anisa to make all those orders. In the next few days, Andi can train Anisa to make a dessert box that matches the recipe. Maybe that way is the best. That way they can retain existing customers.

Andi looked at the two-story building in front of him. The building stands on a land area of four hundred and fifty square meters. While the area of the building itself is two hundred square meters. Previously this building was a house but the owner intended to sell the house.
This house is located in an area that is quite a strategy to be used as a place of business. Assistant from Brian's mother suggested this building to Brian. However, this building is a building that will be sold not for rent.
Andi who had been looking around felt very suitable to this building. A place as large as that will not only be made as a physical store of his products, he can also open a cafe here. Doesn't the system sell the experience of a cook.
The experience of the cook and sweet tongue, the combination of both seems to lead Andi to open a business in the field of food. Maybe this is indeed the purpose of the system, making Andi open a business in the field of food.
It was a pity that Andi did not have enough money to buy the house in front of him. The owner of the house has priced his house at thirteen billion rupiah. Although Andi could earn money easily, he could not raise that much money in the near future.
“How so? Do you like this building?” brian asked as he looked at the serious Andi looking at the building in front of him.
“This building is quite strategic. Close to the shopping area. This is also with the Pancasila Fort Road. Usually there is used as a place for young people to gather. Not only shops, we can make this place as a cafe. With a little renovation. Unfortunately this is not a rented building.” Andi shook her head slowly.
“It's easy. When I told my mom that I was going to start a business with you, right away she was going to give me twenty billion dollars in start-up capital. We can use the money to buy this house and the rest to turn it all over and buy some necessary equipment.”
“But if you buy this house, then we need to change everything. I mean by our capital percentage.”
Brian flicked his hand. “Do not say that. Do not put this home asset into the capital. If you mind, you can rent this place from me. So you still need to set aside money to pay me the rent for this place. If you agree to this place, my mother's assistant will take care of everything.”
“He will contact the seller of this house to complete the transaction. He will also find us an architect to renovate this place. We need to design the appropriate design. I think two months at the earliest we can open this place. How?”
Andi seemed silent to Brian. He seemed to think of Brian. Indeed, by following Brian's advice, they can have this building to be their place of business. But Andi felt bad about doing that. He felt he was using Brian if he did that.
Brian looked at the expression on his friend's face. He immediately knew what his friend was feeling. “Bro you are not benefiting me. So just calm down. I am willing to do this so you do not benefit me. You will pay the rent, not. I also have a stake in this venture. So, don't be burdened like that. Just accept everything.”
