With the daring bet made, Gavi and Nikshay stood at the threshold of a new challenge. Their ambitious proposal to Mr. Kapoor had been accepted, and their journey to generate more revenue than the restaurant owner's establishment had officially begun.
As they walked away from the restaurant, the weight of their mission and the stakes ahead hung in the air. The streets were alive with the vibrancy of the city, but Gavi and Nikshay were already immersed in their strategy.
Mr. Kapoor had handed them a sealed envelope. Inside, they found a sum of 50,000 zels—an investment to kickstart their endeavor. The enigmatic system's window pinged with notifications:
**Contract**
**50000 Zels Credited**
**System Ping**
**Balance: 50 Zels**
**50000 Zels Combined: You and Nikshay**
**Mission:** To generate more revenue than Kapoor's restaurant.
**Penalty:** To pay 100,000 Zels. If you don't have enough money, you will be killed.
**Reward:** Ownership of the new shop (shared).
Gavi and Nikshay's determination burned brighter than ever. Their newfound funds were a stepping stone toward their ultimate goal, and they were ready to make every zel count. They knew that their success hinged on their ability to create a thriving business that would surpass Mr. Kapoor's restaurant.
Their first task was to scout for the perfect location for their shop. They roamed the city's bustling streets, their eyes keenly assessing every corner, every nook and cranny. They sought a spot with high foot traffic, a strategic location that would attract potential customers and give them an edge.
After days of scouting, they stumbled upon an ideal space—a charming corner nestled between two busy streets. The shop's large windows allowed ample natural light to filter in, creating an inviting ambiance. Gavi and Nikshay exchanged an excited glance, a shared understanding passing between them.
As they entered the space, their minds whirred with possibilities. They envisioned shelves lined with unique products, an innovative layout that encouraged exploration, and a warm atmosphere that would draw people in. It was a canvas waiting to be transformed into their vision of success.
But their ambitious plans didn't stop there. They had a twist in mind that would set them apart—a drive-through concept that would cater to busy customers on the go. As they discussed their vision, Nikshay couldn't help but laugh. "Wait, this world doesn't have a MacDonald's? What bullshit is this?"
Gavi joined in the laughter. "Okay, so ours will be new, extreme laugh. We're going to give this world something it's never seen before!"
With their unique concept in mind, Gavi and Nikshay knew they needed the perfect location. However, the challenge was that they couldn't afford to buy land. They decided to explore the option of renting. After all, they were on a tight schedule.
Their search led them to a potential location, and they approached the landowner—a man named Rajan. As they discussed the terms, Rajan informed them of the rent for two months: a hefty 63,000 zels.
"Damn, that's high," Gavi muttered, exchanging a glance with Nikshay.
Rajan chuckled. "Well, you see, this is a prime location. Lots of traffic, which means you'll have an easy time making money."
Gavi glanced at Nikshay, a hint of concern in his eyes. They didn't have enough money to cover such a steep rent. After a moment, Gavi took a deep breath and proposed an alternative. "How about 20,000 zels for the first month, and if we're able to arrange it, we'll pay you 35,000 zels for the second month? Plus, we'll treat you to dinner from our side. How does that sound?"
Rajan scratched his chin, considering the offer. "That's an interesting proposal, but I have a better idea. How about 20,000 zels for the first month, and 40,000 zels for the second month? No extra conditions. Oh, and you pay the 20,000 zels in advance."
Gavi and Nikshay exchanged a quick glance before nodding. "Done," Gavi said with determination.
"Alright, then. Welcome to the world of business," Rajan replied with a grin.
As they sealed the deal, Gavi and Nikshay knew that their journey had just taken another leap forward. The stage was set, the location secured, and their determination unwavering. The countdown had begun, and the next two months would be a whirlwind of innovation, hard work, and a relentless pursuit of their audacious goal.
And so, with a shared sense of excitement and determination, they ventured into the world of entrepreneurship, ready to turn their dreams into reality and prove that in this enigmatic realm, success was not just a distant possibility—it was a tangible destination within their reach.
