"Ladies and gentlemen, this time it's really over."
"Oh my...it smells so good."
The diner scooped up a mouthful of rice with a spoon and put it in his mouth. The rice grains, full of meaty aroma, were stirred by his tongue, and his mouth was filled with the taste of braised pork knuckle.
This bowl of rice with meat gravy was enough to sustain him through a day of craving for braised pork knuckle.
Tomorrow, let's fight again!
"You bastard, get the hell out of my way!"
Some diners who also missed out on the food were angered by this bizarre situation. They were already craving food, and this further provoked them.
Immediately, the sixth diner was attacked by the crowd and was beaten until his head was covered in bumps.
Lu Wu looked at the clean bottom of the pot and gave it a thumbs up.
Go for a single six.
No need to wash the pot anymore.
Closing down!
Lu Wu estimated that the task could be completed tomorrow, which also meant that she didn't have enough spare pork knuckles.
Turning his head, Da Huang went off to fight his way into the Valley of Ten Thousand Poisons again.
Lin Wu then went to Lin the Butcher's place.
The fishpond we saw earlier is now in use, and the lively fish are spitting water at Lu Wu when they see her.
It doesn't cause much harm, but it's extremely insulting.
Lu Wu pondered that there must be a recipe for grilled fish in the system.
She wants to make these fish both beautiful and delicious.
As for the spirit pigs from before, they rushed away as soon as they saw Lu Wu appear.
That speed was something Lu Wu could never match.
"Roar!"
The King of Hell is coming! Run!
Its name is Piglet Three. It will always remember the day this living devil arrived, when its eldest brother and second sister bid farewell to this world.
Today, there must still be brothers and sisters suffering.
It's better to let friends and family suffer than to suffer itself; it needs to go into hiding.
Wiping away her tears, Piggy continued to work diligently.
It needs to eat more, until it becomes fat and strong, and sooner or later it will overeat that living devil.
Lu Wu ordered another batch of pork knuckles from Butcher Lin.
When I got home, it was already late afternoon, and the sycamore trees in the courtyard were swaying gently under the clear sky.
It's warm and cozy.
[Task Progress: 268/500]
Half is still needed.
Based on today's situation, two hundred or so servings may not be enough to sell tomorrow.
After a leisurely half-day, night fell.
Lu Wu, having just woken from a good dream, rolled up her sleeves and got to work.
With such a large quantity, Lu Wu spent half the morning busy stewing all the pork knuckles.
To Lu Wu's surprise, Grandpa Li did not appear.
She called out a few more times, but no one responded; she guessed they had gone for a walk somewhere.
After packing up, Lu Wu leisurely made his way to the Valley of Ten Thousand Poisons.
Unlike before, Lu Wu encountered many diners on his way there today.
The moment those diners saw Lu Wu, they wore expressions as if they were late for school, their eyes accusing him of being a heartless man.
"Hello, Mr. Lu. Please take care. See you later, Mr. Lu."
Whoosh!
They greeted each other and then ran off quickly, as if a ghost were chasing them.
Lu Wu lowered the hand she had just raised.
She was puzzled.
I, the stall owner, haven't even gone yet; are they rushing off to buy air?
Outside the Valley of Ten Thousand Poisons, the area was bustling with activity.
Many diners waited here, and some with foresight lined up early, with many even bringing their own stools.
They sit on the stool, chatting and eating sunflower seeds, quite leisurely.
Some vendors, hearing the news, set up stalls here.
However, they did not sell food; with Boss Lu around, their food simply couldn't be sold.
The Valley of Ten Thousand Poisons—the antidote pills sell very well there.
Jiang Yunhe set up a small stall, and at this moment he was in his original form.
As soon as the sign for Divine Healer Valley was put up, customers flocked to the place.
"One bottle of antidote pills and one bottle of Qi-gathering pills, totaling five hundred spirit stones. Thank you for your patronage."
Qin Zhan was extremely envious when he saw Jiang Yunhe making a fortune, but unfortunately, the specialties of the Holy Sword Sect could not be sold casually.
Aren't you going to wait in line?
Qin Zhan pointed to the group not far away, estimating that there were nearly three hundred people.
He was using a clone technique to chat with Jiang Yunhe, while his real body didn't dare to move an inch.
These diners don't care about status or position as long as they seize the opportunity to advance.
The area outside the valley was completely dark; the Valley of Ten Thousand Poisons had never been this lively.
Some cultivators who wanted to enter the Valley of Ten Thousand Poisons for training found this grand scene unbelievable.
This situation is perfect for members of the Baozi Cult to proselytize.
After being spread by many believers, some monks were also persuaded to join the queue.
The number of diners is increasing.
Looking back in the direction we came from, we can still see people rushing here.
"No rush."
"I hired someone to plant me."
Jiang Yunhe spoke frankly.
He made a deal with someone by offering two bottles of antidote pills, asking the other person to queue up for him.
"Be careful, the car might overturn."
The temptation of Boss Lu's braised pork knuckle is so great that two bottles of pills cannot resist it.
Seeing Lu Wu's figure appear out of the corner of his eye, Qin Zhan disappeared.
"Make way, everyone, Mr. Lu is here."
Once again, Lu Wu, who was being watched and revered by the crowd, calmly walked to the designated spot and took out his equipment.
"Today, each person is limited to two pork knuckles."
After the signboard was hung up, the pork knuckle stall opened for business.
As soon as the pot lid was lifted, steaming hot air made the diners at the front of the line drool.
Seeing that Lu Wu was about to start packing, he quickly stopped her.
"Wait a moment, Mr. Lu."
Um?
Lu Wu picked up a pork knuckle and looked at him questioningly.
Then, to Lu Wu's astonishment, the diner calmly pulled out a large lunchbox from his storage space.
