Douluo Continent on the tip of the tongue

It is shorter than a pot, wider than a bowl, and has a lid on it.

Zhou Long watched with wide eyes as Qi Han opened the lid of the vessel, revealing the milky white soup in the casserole. The expected weird taste did not appear at all, and was replaced by a faint and delicious smell.

Gulu.

Zhou Long couldn't help but swallow a sip of saliva. The delicious aroma was so appealing that he couldn't help but pick up the spoon on the side and take a sip of the soup.

When the soup entered your mouth, the strong umami flavor contained in it exploded in your mouth instantly, making Zhou Long's eyes widen.

Is this the soup made by the boss?

This is what soup should look like!

Zhou Long's impression of soup was completely overturned by pork belly chicken.

After drinking a few spoons of soup, Zhou Long discovered that there was actually vegetables in the pork belly and chicken.

Picking up a piece with chopsticks, Zhou Long stuffed it into his mouth with anticipation.

Tender and juicy, is this chicken?

But why is chicken so tender?

Zhou Long was a little confused. The chickens he had eaten in the past were all roasted chickens. They were very fragrant, but the meat quality was average, at least not so tender. It seemed as if juice would flow out when he bit it. The rich umami flavor was completely in his mouth.

It melts away, refreshing the heart and spleen, making people linger and forget to leave.

As if he had found a treasure, Zhou Long couldn't help but taste it piece by piece. Soon, he discovered that besides chicken, there seemed to be something else in the soup.

Picking up a long strip of belly, Zhou Long looked at it curiously.

There is no habit of eating pork belly on Douluo Continent, or basically no one eats offal.

Therefore, these strips of pork belly are definitely a new experience for Zhou Long.

Is this... edible?

In Zhou Long's impression, pork belly should be very smelly.

But at this moment, this slender belly does not have the slightest odor, but instead carries a special fragrance.

"Try it," Zhou Long gritted his teeth and stuffed the pork belly into his mouth.

It's crispy and chewy in the mouth, and the taste is so different from chicken that Zhou Long couldn't help but widen his eyes.

He lowered his head and swung his chopsticks faster and faster. The soup and meat in the casserole decreased rapidly, and finally there was not a drop left.

Looking at the clean bottom of the pot, Zhou Long burped with satisfaction.

So delicious.

"Hey, boss, you are here, is this a new dish?" A voice came from beside Zhou Long. He raised his head and saw that it was Zhang Ji and Zhang Mo who were here.

Zhou Long chuckled and gave a thumbs up, "You two have a try, this new dish is absolutely amazing."

Zhang Ji scratched his head and shouted at Qi Han, "Boss, two portions of cucumbers, two large portions of fried rice with eggs, and one portion of chicken with pork belly!"

cooked rice!

...

Two days passed in the blink of an eye, and it had been five days since Qi Han opened the store.

The small shop has gained quite a reputation in the surrounding area. No matter it is noon or evening, it is always crowded after opening. Some customers even choose to line up in front of the shop in advance in order to have an early meal.

At noon that day, after Qi Han closed the door and sent away the last batch of guests, a notification tone from the system suddenly sounded.

【Ding!】

[It is detected that the host has completed a task.]

[Main mission three: A little famous (completed)

Mission reward: randomly dropped recipe x1 (can be claimed), soul power level +5 (can be claimed), two-star self-selected recipe fragment x1 (can be claimed)]

[Side Mission 1: Cultural Ambassador (Completed)

Mission reward: Soul power level +5 (can be collected)]

【Ding!】

【Task triggered!】

[Main mission 4: A small goal

The cumulative revenue of the store reaches 100,000 gold soul coins

Mission description: Even if you are the God of Cookery, making money is equally important. Come and earn a small goal that belongs to you!

Mission reward: three-star random recipe x1, two-star self-selected recipe fragment x1, soul power level +5

Mission progress: 13621/100000]

【Ding!】

【Task triggered!】

[Side mission 2: Hire a waiter

Ask the host to hire a waiter for the shop.

Task description: For such a considerate system, please don’t be too moved by the host~

Mission reward: One-star self-selected recipe fragment x1]

Hiss... Qi Han took a deep breath and froze when he saw a series of mission prompts that suddenly popped up.

The surprise came too suddenly.

With trembling hands, he quickly received the soul power level rewards for the main mission and side mission.

The surrounding rich vitality of heaven and earth enveloped Qi Han and quickly poured into Qi Han's body through the acupoints.

The soul power in the body operates automatically. Week after week, in almost a cup of tea, the total amount of soul power increases by more than ten times.

Is it level eleven now?

No, I haven’t absorbed the soul ring yet, so I should still have level ten soul power, right?

Just as I was thinking about it, the system prompt sounded again.

[The host has entered a bottleneck and needs to obtain soul rings to continue to increase soul power. The remaining soul power level rewards will be retained and will be used automatically after breakthrough]

【Ding!】

【Task triggered!】

[Limited time task: Obtaining ingredients.

The host is asked to go to the Star Dou Forest within five days and defeat the century-old soul beast Iron Armored Ox independently.

Task description: Personally participating in the acquisition of ingredients is also an indispensable step to becoming a food god~

Mission reward: System Soul Ring x1, two-star recipe: Tomato Beef Brisket

Mission props: Branch map of armored cattle community in Star Dou Forest.]

Qi Han blinked, with a question mark on his face.

The task is easy to understand. I go to the Star Forest to find an armored cow. In order to make it easier for me to find it, the system even thoughtfully sent me a distribution map of the armored cow.

What a considerate person!

"System, I am a level 10 rookie with a kitchen knife as a martial spirit and only know how to cook. How can I defeat a century-old spirit beast on my own?"

[After system testing, it has been determined that this task is not difficult to complete. The task prompt is now given: Guest.]

guest?

What does it mean?

Forget it, we'll talk about it later.

Qi Han put this time-limited mission aside. Even if he wanted to set off, he would set off tomorrow. Let's look at other missions first.

I just played a bunch of mission information, but I haven't looked at it carefully yet.

Let’s collect all the rewards first.

Qi Han first received the two-star self-selected recipe fragment x1. Counting this fragment, Qi Han has already obtained two two-star self-selected recipe fragments. Two more fragments can be exchanged for a two-star self-selected recipe.

Later, Qi Han received the randomly dropped recipe x1 and entered the system space.

Under Qi Han's earnest gaze, the dial pointer slowly but firmly pointed to...the yellow area.

Two stars!

Okay, one star is not enough.

Qi Han told himself calmly, and then stared at his random results with wide eyes.

hiss...

Qi Han took a breath of cold air, it was actually it.

With this dish, my small shop can be considered to have meat dishes that can be served.

The previous pork belly and chicken does not count.

However, Qi Han had no plans to directly enter the training of Dongpo Elbow for the time being. He took a look at the two new tasks released.

One main line and one branch line.

The main task is easy to understand. It only requires that the total turnover exceeds 100,000 gold soul coins. Now his shop's daily income can reach 3,000 gold soul coins, sometimes even more. In this way, it only takes one month to be patient and open.

Then the task will be completed.

It's not too difficult, just a little time consuming.

As for the side tasks, hiring a waiter coincides with Qi Han's idea. After all, as the business is getting better and better, he is indeed a little overwhelmed.

But this matter must wait until the time-limited task is completed before considering it.
