You said you would make games by yourself, but how did you become the richest man by doing nothing?

After that came the highly anticipated tasting session.

Lu Yu paced back and forth in the restaurant, observing the reactions of his employees.

Sun Rou, the art girl from the 'trash talk' group, picked up her cutlery and gently cut into a piece of Stir-fried Sea Cucumber with Abalone in Pepper Sauce. The rich aroma instantly filled the air, and her taste buds couldn't help but tingle.

A poke with her chopsticks revealed the meat to be bouncy and incredibly chewy.

Unable to wait, she put the abalone and sea cucumber in her mouth, and she couldn't help but squint her eyes in comfort.

The texture was soft and rich, melting in her mouth, with the spicy aroma of the thick sauce blending into her taste buds.

"Fresh!"

Her voice was filled with exclamation and satisfaction.

[Employee Sun Rou tastes the delicious abalone, feels happy, triggers a critical hit, Leisure Points +2]

Not far from her, Xie Ying, the business girl, gently picked up a piece of Smoked Pomfret from Old Jianghai.

The fish shimmered with an enticing color similar to grilled meat.

Upon entering her mouth, her taste buds were enveloped by the rich smoky aroma of grilled meat. The texture of the meat was elastic and chewy, making it feel substantial.

Taking a second bite, Xie Ying was surprised to find that the layers of flavor were richer than she had imagined, with the salty and sweet flavors of smoked meat blending together, creating a burst of satisfaction!

Whirr, whirr...

She poured herself a large glass of iced cola and gulped it down.

The smoked fish was a bit salty and greasy, but after the cola moistened her throat, it presented a different, endlessly lingering fragrance.

Awesome! Just one word.

Li Hongmei from the next table picked up a piece of Duck Liver Pate with Scallion Pancake.

The round scallion pancake gave off a rich scallion fragrance.

She cautiously took a bite, expecting the pancake to be hard, but was surprised by its soft, moist texture that melted in her mouth.

For the second pancake, she dipped it in the rich duck liver pate, the thick, rich aroma of the duck liver perfectly complementing the savory aroma of the scallion pancake.

Dipping the pancake in the sauce was a truly satisfying experience for this northerner, and she couldn't stop eating one after another.

After eating three pancakes, she took a spoonful of the accompanying Duck Blood and Vermicelli Soup, slurped it down, and Li Hongmei immediately felt light and comfortable all over.

Seeing the reactions of the girls, Lu Yu sighed in his heart that Fan Jing was indeed something.

Previously, these girls contributed an average of about 1.2 Leisure Points per meal when eating food made by outside chefs. Fan Jing's tasting today not only guaranteed a critical hit effect, but also pushed the points to a new high.

After that, Lu Yu focused on Mo Xiaoxuan, who was sitting in the corner.

In front of him was a plate of Steamed Hairy Crab with Aged Shaoxing Wine.

Gently picking up a hairy crab with his chopsticks, the shell shimmered with an amber luster, and the aroma of aged wine wafted over him. With a gentle twist, the crab shell quietly opened, revealing the bright red and juicy crab meat.

He swallowed his saliva and took a bite, the fresh and savory taste of the meat instantly filling his mouth, mixed with the intoxication of Shaoxing wine.

The first bite was quite appetizing. His crab-peeling skills gradually became more proficient. After being specially steamed, the crab roe was mellow, the crab paste was smooth, and the crab legs were firm. Each part had a different texture. Paired with condiments made of ginger, perilla, and crab vinegar, he couldn't stop eating bite after bite.

Next to it was a bottle of plum wine. After eating a crab, he took a sip of plum wine, the taste was endlessly satisfying.

The enjoyment of the gods is nothing more than this!

As expected of the potential talent that Lu Yu valued, this critical hit once again broke the employee's high score record!

At the same time, he also praised Fan Jing repeatedly. After all, he was a famous chef who had won many awards at home and abroad. In fact, the four dishes tasted today were not the most top-notch ingredients. For example, scallion pancakes can be bought at many breakfast stalls.

But the measure of a chef's skill is never how many fancy ingredients he uses, but how he can create a unique taste and satisfaction.

...

At this time, on the other side, the system light screen in front of Liu Mengyuan was also constantly refreshing.

[The host's exposure triggers a guaranteed reward, the 'Fish Dish', 'Abalone and Sea Cucumber Dish', and 'Pastry Making' skills in the 'Doting Wife Series' awaken to Lv1]

Although she wasn't learning game development skills, Liu Mengyuan was still very happy.

Because the skills she is learning now can completely complement the talent 'Eye of the Ocean' that awakened in the previous cycle.

In the future, she can also make seafood delicacies that are no less than those of famous chefs.

It just so happens that this month is Lu Yu's birthday. She decided to personally cook a meal for this young man on his birthday and refresh his understanding of her cooking skills.

And then take the opportunity to get him drunk with plum wine. She has never seen Lu Yu's unguarded side after getting drunk...

fu~fu~fu~

Plan complete!

...

After eating this tasting meal, Shao Peng and Zhang Fan wiped their mouths with napkins in satisfaction.

Although they had been eating high-end work meals in Taoyuan Township Manor for so long, they had gradually become gourmets.

But Master Fan's tasting meal really made them feel great.

What's even more exciting is that ordinary people can only occasionally go to Guwei Jiangnan and spend thousands or tens of thousands of dollars to enjoy it once.

But in the future, Taoyuan Township employees can eat so well every day, and it's all free!

"If possible, I really want to work at this company for the rest of my life."

Shao Peng happily sucked on orange juice and then burped.

Zhang Fan also sighed: "President Lu is too concerned about our meals!"

In fact, many game companies in China with good performance also have employee canteens.

Some canteens can't be said to be in poor condition, but their level is only limited to "edible".

Taoyuan Township Company is truly unique in its attention to eating to such a heaven-defying degree.

Zhang Fan smacked his lips and said: "Why don't we ask President Liu what President Lu's deep meaning is in attaching so much importance to eating? Is there any hidden reason in this?"

Through their exposure to the company these days, they firmly believe that the old thousand-layer cake can't possibly be spending so much effort just for eating.

Thinking of this, they looked in Lu Yu's direction.

At this time, Lu Yu also happened to look here and met their eyes.

Lu Yu curled the corner of his mouth, revealing a playful smile.

What he was thinking in his heart was: Hmph, you young men performed well in this meal and earned a lot of points.

That's right, what are you doing with all that internal competition? My Taoyuan Township has plenty of delicious food, plenty of enjoyable facilities, and plenty of cute girls to feast your eyes on. Continue to enjoy life, get completely lost and degenerate here, ge ge ge...

Seeing Lu Yu's evil smile, Zhang Fan and Shao Peng's bodies shook.

Sure enough!

Zhang Fan whispered: "President Lu has a deep meaning, he is hoping that we can understand his development hint. Why don't we go ask President Liu if there are any similar proverbs like 'instant noodles and chefs'?"

Shao Peng shook his head and said: "Don't disturb the couple's life too much. We can't always rely on President Liu to listen to pillow talk for everything. We are already mature Taoyuan Township employees and should learn to guess President Lu's intentions ourselves!"

Shao Peng took another big sip of orange juice and wiped his mouth: "President Lu is very likely hoping that we will pay attention to the food in the game, that is to say, can we add a cooking system."

"Cooking system?"

"Yes, you think about it, since it's a modern city, then food culture is definitely an indispensable part. Of course, the cooking in the game is not just about restoring health, different dishes have different effects."

Shao Peng took out his mobile phone, opened the notepad, and started typing.

"Let's take what we ate today as an example, for example, these foods have the following effects respectively:

[Stir-fried Sea Cucumber with Abalone in Pepper Sauce]: The pepper seasoning in the dish improves the sharpness of trash talk, and the psychological shield breaking effect on enemies is better.

[Steamed Hairy Crab with Aged Shaoxing Wine]: This dish increases the character's psychological shield strength and can reduce the enemy's attacks.

[Smoked Pomfret from Old Jianghai]: This dish improves the character's intelligence attribute, allowing the character to understand more entries in the adventure.

[Duck Liver Pate with Scallion Pancake]: After eating this dish, the character can be eloquent in a short period of time, making it easier to persuade or ridicule opponents."

"Hey, wait, wait a minute."

After reading Shao Peng's plan, Zhang Fan felt a little confused.

"You said that eating chili peppers makes your mouth very poisonous. Hairy crabs are crustaceans, so they can improve defense. Eating fish can nourish the brain, so improve intelligence, I understand all this. What's the matter with scallion pancakes, how can they ridicule?"

Zhang Fan chuckled:

"After the player eats this dish, won't they immediately be able to understand a new trash talk entry: 'Are you eating scallion pancakes!'"

Zhang Fan suddenly realized.

"Don't say it, don't say it, your brain is a bit interesting, it is estimated that players will have a lot of fun playing."

He also became interested: "I also have a suggestion, cooking ingredients can not only add buffs, but also be used as weapons in the game, you just take this as an example..."

As he said that, he picked up a complete fish bone with the head and spine from a piece of fish.

"This fish bone can be enlarged and made into a decorative sword, so that players can hold it in their hands, how cool."

Shao Peng was ashamed.

Is this the brain hole after the programmer started to be a planner?

Zhang Fan continued to talk eloquently: "Adding it to the game, you can make the fish eyes emit a strange light, so that the opponent's SAN value can be greatly reduced."

"What's the name of the sword?"

"Tanaka Spinal Cord Sword."
