Chapter 17 Meow

The dog that Jian Yunlan raised when she was a child was named Maomao.

The dog that Taotie transformed into had such long hair and looked very majestic.

Just call it Maomao!

What a lovely, fitting and meaningful name.

Jian Yunlan gave a thumbs up to her own taste.

Taotie was so angry that he almost spit fire. He wanted to pounce on Jian Yunlan and bite her, but was blocked by an invisible wall and stumbled.

Under the restraint of the "100% Taming Collar", he cannot hurt Jian Yunlan.

Taotie was furious and stared at him anxiously for a long time.

Jian Yunlan also stared at him nervously, fearing that he would fight to the death with her.

"Well, let's make three rules." Although he turned into a dog, the pressure of the ancient beast was still there. Being stared at by the pair of golden eyes, Jian Yunlan said tremblingly, "Every day when I'm not setting up the stall, you can turn into a human, but you are not allowed to hurt anyone."

"When I'm setting up the stall, you can only maintain your dog - er, animal form, and you are not allowed to steal food from diners!"

Taotie said angrily: “Ouch!”

A deep and arrogant male voice sounded in Jian Yunlan's mind:

"Why should I agree to you?!"

Taotie stared at him sinisterly, as if thinking about how to bite off his neck.

Jian Yunlan: "Just because... your three meals a day are all covered by me."

Taotie: “…”

Taotie gritted his teeth.

A little hesitant.

Jian Yunlan continued to add to the discussion: "Help me run my snack stand. If you do a good job, you will get extra meals as a reward."

"Wontons, egg fried rice, noodles with soybean paste, roujiamo, roasted chicken legs, whatever you want to eat, I can make it."

"how?"

The series of dishes named made Taotie's eyes turn red.

If the bowl of shrimp noodles that Jian Yunlan made in fifteen minutes was so delicious, he couldn’t imagine how delicious the rest would be.

Taotie doesn't speak.

Time passed by minute by minute, and in the silence, Jian Yunlan's heart gradually became heavier.

If Taotie is still not satisfied, then he really has no choice!

Just when Jian Yunlan was about to lose hope.

Taotie nodded angrily: "Oh."

There is no shame in bowing to delicious food.

Wonton, Roujiamo, roasted chicken legs...

Just thinking about it makes Taotie's saliva start to flow.

Jian Yunlan stretched out his hand: "Deal."

Taotie also stretched out his claws with a proud look on his face and reluctantly placed them on Jian Yunlan's hand.

"Okay, then you can change back to human form."

As soon as he finished speaking, the collar around Taotie's neck loosened slightly, and air flowed.

The man in the Warring States robe reappeared, his silver hair tied up high, his golden eyes burning with anger, staring at Jian Yunlan.

Jian Yunlan was a little scared and took a half step back: "Don't mess around."

"snort."

Taotie said: "I don't do those sinister things."

If he says a deal is done, it's a deal. He never does things in a hypocritical way.

"Tonight, I want to eat what you said, wonton."

After ordering the dishes in a proud manner, Taotie looked around and saw half a bowl of shrimp noodles left on the table.

He walked over happily and lowered his head to eat the remaining noodles.

Eating is important.

Taotie: "Chew, chew, chew."

Taotie squinted his eyes happily.

tasty.

Jian Yunlan: "..."

It's so easy to fool.

The phone vibrates and the Kitchen God app pops up:

[Congratulations, the mandatory side quest has been completed! Mission rewards have been issued! 】

[Obtained [Innate Divine Power] x1]

Note: When setting up a stall, the most important thing is physical strength. Whether it is buying vegetables, setting up the stall, flipping the wok, training dogs, fighting, or running away, strong physical support is required!

[You have new employees, you can check them in [Employee List]! 】

It seems that the side quest has been completed successfully and there is no need to be struck by lightning.

As for his innate supernatural power... he felt a warm current surge up from his dantian, flowing through his limbs and bones, making him feel numb wherever it passed.

After the warm current ended, he picked up a soy sauce bottle and squeezed it gently.

The bottle burst!

Is this the innate power?

This golden finger came at the right time, Jian Yunlan thought. In this way, if Taotie suddenly attacked, he would not be completely powerless to fight back.

Nodding with satisfaction, Jian Yunlan breathed a sigh of relief.

I'm so tired, I'm going to take a nap.

Live broadcast room of all worlds.

The appearance of Taotie shocked the audience in the live broadcast room.

[What the hell! What the hell!] ! ! 】

[That’s Taotie, Taotie (shivering)]

[Taotie has been at the top of the food chain in the mountain and sea plane for tens of thousands of years. How terrifying]

[I come from the Western fantasy dimension. May I ask what Taotie is? 】

[:) An ancient vicious beast, representing "gluttony". Taotie committed a crime in the Ten Thousand Worlds not long ago. All the elite police forces in the world were dispatched to hunt him down, and it took 49 days to capture him. Just think about the value of this.]

[I don’t know how long the anchor can survive]

[Since Taotie is serving a sentence, Wanjie should have given the host a magic weapon to protect himself. That’s good... right? 】

[Instead of this, please help the host think of how to conquer Gu Xingzhou. 】

Alas, this is really a case of one problem after another.

The audience sighed.

Other anchors have already made their presence felt in front of Gu Xingzhou. There is also an anchor next door who has a golden finger of extraordinary intelligence. He tried his best to sneak into Gu Xingzhou's company from the beginning and has become Gu Xingzhou's right-hand man.

And Boss Jian didn't even see Gu Xingzhou...

If you don't start pushing the plot, then, then——

Oh wait, haven't they said this many times? !

.

Sunday passed quickly without incident.

Although Taotie had a bad temper, he kept his word and did not cause any more trouble. Jian Yunlan asked the housekeeper to take him to buy modern clothes, and he changed into them obediently, although he complained a few words.

At five in the morning on Monday, Jian Yunlan had just opened her eyes when she received a new task reminder from the Kitchen God System:

[Main mission: For six days, before 11 a.m. every day, set up a stall downstairs of Yuanzhou Group where the protagonist Gu Xingzhou is and sell 100 servings of fried rice, each serving priced at 50 yuan. 】

[Obtained [Fried Rice Recipe Collection] x1]

[Are you willing to accept this main quest? Accept/Reject】

Jian Yunlan's eyes suddenly lit up.

Set up a stall! Finally I can set up a stall again!

He didn't set up his stall on Sunday and felt like something was wrong. He didn't enjoy his food anymore.

Jian Yunlan quickly got up from the bed, steamed the rice first, then rode his tricycle and headed straight to the vegetable market.

If we sell out all the fried rice at 11 o'clock, we have to open the stall at at least 9 o'clock. It's already 5 o'clock, so time is quite tight.

On the first day, we started with the most classic fried rice.

Egg fried rice!

Jian Yunlan bought some fresh radishes, onions, corn, and local eggs at the market, returned to the villa, and began to prepare for setting up the stall.

Selling fried rice at a stall is more attractive if it is freshly made, so Jian Yunlan decided to prepare the ingredients and seasonings, and then go to the stall and fry it on the spot when customers place an order.

Everything was ready. At nine o'clock, Jian Yunlan loaded all the ingredients into the car.

Set up the stall!

Before stepping out of the door, Jian Yunlan slammed on the brakes.

A majestic silver dog blocked his way. Lord Taotie looked down at him, raised his chin with dignity, and his golden eyes sparkled:

"How dare you secretly go out and set up a stall without telling me?!"

Jian Yunlan was going out to make some delicious food, and he had to try it.

Without waiting for Jian Yunlan to answer, Taotie gracefully jumped into the back seat of the tricycle and combed his hair.

Jian Yunlan suddenly remembered the Shiba Inu emoticon pack.

——Is it too easy to set up a stall by one person? Take this with you.

"Maomao, you have to be good." Jian Yunlan warned him, "If you're not, I'll throw you into the garbage dump."

Taotie: “…”

Humans, don't push your luck!

At nine o'clock, Jian Yunlan and Taotie arrived at the stall on time.

As it is located in a prime location downstairs of a large company, there are many people setting up stalls here at nine o'clock. There are people selling pancakes, steamed dumplings, soy milk and fried dough sticks...

Jian Yunlan was the first one to sell fried rice.

He set up a big pot on the dining cart and placed the ingredients, radishes, onions, eggs, and seasonings beside it. After everything was ready, Jian Yunlan stood there and began to wait for the first diner to arrive.

The other snack stall owners all looked at him sideways, thinking, is this young man crazy?

Who would eat fried rice with egg so early in the morning?

No matter how you think about it, something like egg fried rice, which is quite filling, should compete for dinner or even midnight snacks. People coming and going here are all white-collar office workers. In order not to feel sleepy, they eat very little in the morning, basically just a cup of coffee and a serving of steamed dumplings, and that's it.

Just go to work and live.

Lin Tianqiu thought so too.

He walked out of the office building of Yuanzhou Group with unsteady steps and enough resentment in his body to feed a dozen evil sword immortals.

Colleagues who came to work were all shocked when they saw him.

...Others had just started work, but Lin Tianqiu hadn't gotten off work yet.

Not only him, but their entire team stayed up all night in the company last night.

It's the busy season for settlement recently, and the deadline is approaching soon. The higher-ups are coming down to collect the debts, so their team has been checking the account books all night long!

And it’s not finished yet.

They were so hungry that they couldn't bear it anymore, so they unanimously decided to send the intern Lin Tianqiu down to find food.

Just buy something, such as soy milk and fried dough sticks, as long as it is edible.

Lin Tianqiu's eyes were dull as he glanced around several food stalls downstairs, intending to find a stall with no queues to buy from.

Of course he also saw the fried rice stall in the corner.

The owner of that stall should be setting up a stall here for the first time. He looks very handsome, but it is obvious that he lacks experience.

The location he chose was the worst in the area. It was far from the company entrance and white-collar workers were generally too lazy to walk there. Moreover, unlike other shops where the aroma of various foods wafted out, the owner's food cart seemed deserted because there were no customers.

It makes people not want to go there at first sight.

It's really not easy to live these days. You are so young and beautiful, but you have no choice but to set up a stall.

Lin Tianqiu felt a sense of sympathy for the other person.

If he were laid off one day, he would probably end up like this.

But this sympathy was not enough to support Lin Tianqiu to buy something he was not interested in.

Lin Tianqiu bought a few buns at the bun shop. The bun shop owner was about to close his stall, so the buns were a little cold, so he sold them to Lin Tianqiu at a discount.

Just at this moment.

In the corner, the fried rice stall owner suddenly moved.

There were clearly no customers, so why did he start making fried rice? Lin Tianqiu felt confused.

Jian Yunlan poured oil into the large wok. As the oil gradually heated up, he cracked three country eggs.

A sizzling sound immediately came from the pan, and the eggs were fried until golden in the hot oil. The boss stirred the eggs and neatly added the side dishes, and finally served a large bowl of rice.

The distinct rice grains are mixed with golden eggs in the hot oil, revealing a crystal-clear and attractive color. The salty fragrance of the fried rice and the fragrant fried egg flavor, accompanied by the steam from the hot oil pan, hit you in the face!

Smells so good!

Jian Yunlan gave a slight shake of her wrist, and the golden fried rice rolled up a wave in the air, just like the perfect flipping of the wok in a cartoon.

Lin Tianqiu couldn't figure out the trick, but the looks of the snack stand owners around him immediately changed.

This is just a show of skill.

...It's a show of skill, but there are still no customers, right?

The snack stand owners thought with some regret.

When setting up a snack stall, technique is secondary, and deliciousness is the most important thing.

As he was speaking, Jian Yunlan's first pot of fried rice was already out of the pot.

There are no customers, who is he cooking for? Lin Tianqiu's doubts grew deeper and deeper.

Next second.

A big, fluffy silver dog popped out from nowhere and grabbed the bowl in the fried rice shop owner's hand.

It was really a majestic and handsome dog, with silver-white fur that sparkled in the sun, with a few strands of blue and red. Its pupils were the golden color of expensive gems, and its ears stood up, with a kind of arrogance that came from a life of luxury.

The big dog was holding a bowl of rice, which contained fragrant, golden and tempting fried rice.

The big dog walked casually to a place where he could get some sun, lazily chose a place to sit down, lowered his head, and started eating fried rice.

Its posture was graceful before, but it no longer cared about its image after eating. It seemed to be showing off its delicious food. Its head was almost buried in the rice bowl, and the fragrance of the fried rice spread in the wind...

The crowd was getting a little nervous.

Many people couldn't help but secretly glance into the big dog's bowl and swallowed their saliva quietly.

Lin Tianqiu looked at the cold bun in his hand, and then at the delicious golden fried rice in the big dog's mouth.

He suddenly felt that there was no point in living.

He eats worse than a dog!
