China.
Jiangdong City.
Royal Capital - Villa No. 3
......
Before dawn, Lin Zhou was awakened by a system notification.
[Ding! Random stall task has been refreshed.]
He groggily opened his eyes and saw a bright system, like a virtual game interface, appearing before him.
Having completed the task early last week and received the reward, Lin Zhou spent the entire weekend immersed in the game, not falling asleep until after 3 a.m.
I glanced at the time, 4:30. Good grief, I was woken up after only an hour of sleep!
Reaching out to turn on the light, Lin Zhou sat up and carefully reviewed this week's tasks.
This is a long story.
He died from overwork in his previous life, but ended up transmigrating to this parallel world that was no different from his previous life, and was even resurrected by a random food stall system.
It can travel through time and be resurrected, and it also has a cheat code.
The newbie gift pack even gives you a max-level cooking skill.
Lin Zhou himself couldn't help but praise: "Good riddance!"
If you can have a cheat code to escape the life of a wage earner and reach the pinnacle of life, what's dying once!
He accepts it well, and a wonderful life is just around the corner!
Because the system needs to obtain delicious points from diners to operate.
Therefore, the system refreshes tasks every week. While completing the tasks, he can get all kinds of random rewards. The system can also operate by obtaining delicious points from diners through setting up stalls.
In short, it's a win-win situation.
After a week of practice, he had figured out how the system worked. This villa was the reward for last week's mission, giving him a home in a strange world all at once.
Such a generous gift right off the bat has Lin Zhou eagerly anticipating the next reward!
[This week's task: Go to Huaguoshan Park every evening at 8 PM to sell 200 steamed buns.]
[Recipe: The Complete Guide to Steamed Buns has been released!]
[Accept Task/Reject Task]
Although it felt a bit strange to sell steamed buns in the park at 8 p.m., Lin Zhou accepted the task without hesitation.
Since the task time is 8 PM, why is it refreshing now?
Lin Zhou belatedly realized his morning grumpiness had surfaced, and he couldn't help but mutter "damn system" under his breath before immediately turning off the light and going back to sleep.
......
When I woke up again, it was already 1 p.m.
The tricycle stall in the system's inventory has been transformed into a steamed bun shop.
After regaining consciousness, Lin Zhou immediately decided on the types of steamed buns he would sell at his stall that evening.
The steamed bun shop has a wide variety of flavors, and he chose beef buns and spicy tofu buns according to his own taste.
Then, I opened my phone and placed an order for the ingredients I needed directly on the grocery shopping app.
While I was getting up and washing up, the ingredients were sorted and delivered.
What follows is the long process of chopping the filling, kneading the dough, and wrapping the buns.
I calculated the cost of the ingredients, as well as the labor and time required for preparation.
Lin Zhou decided to sell the beef buns for ten yuan each and the spicy tofu buns for five yuan each.
After everything was ready, he arrived at Huaguoshan Park on time at 8 p.m. on his tricycle.
It was summer, and the park was full of people taking walks, jogging, strolling, and dancing in the evenings.
There were also other vendors selling barbecue and fried skewers by the roadside.
Seeing so many people, Lin Zhou suddenly felt that selling two hundred buns in one night would be a piece of cake.
After finding a good spot, without saying much, we started setting up our stall.
The buns in the steamers were all pre-made.
We'll turn on the heat and steam it directly.
Two stoves, one for steaming beef buns and the other for steaming tofu buns, just right.
While waiting, Lin Zhou took out a folding chair from the tricycle and leisurely took out his mobile phone.
He's good at setting up a stall, but it's not busy yet.
It's just right to fish for a while.
The uncle next door who sells fried skewers saw him setting up a stall to sell steamed buns late at night and a look of confusion and bewilderment flashed in his eyes.
People who go for a walk, exercise, or square dancing in the park late at night are either looking to improve their health or lose weight.
Selling steamed buns at this time? Do you think you can even make a living?
With a hint of confusion, the uncle would glance at Lin Zhou's stall every now and then.
After not seeing any customers for half a day, he felt that his idea had been validated and shook his head with a sigh.
Young people like you still don't know how to do business.
Hmm? What's that smell?
As time went by, Lin Zhou's steamed buns reached their peak, emitting an enticing aroma.
The aroma of the flour and filling is so rich that it can be described as wafting for miles.
The scent reached passersby and even the elderly women dancing in the square nearby.
The first reaction of everyone when they smelled the aroma was: Where is the smell of steamed buns coming from at night?
The aroma of steamed buns shouldn't be present early in the morning, at steamed bun and mantou shops in the market, or at breakfast stalls near schools.
Why would someone be in the park at this time?
It feels really out of place so late at night.
It all gives people a sense of time difference.
Is someone eating steamed buns?
But this rich aroma doesn't seem right!
It's like someone is steaming buns on the spot; the aroma of freshly steamed buns is completely different from the aroma of other people's buns.
As Ms. Wang Chuanjuan smelled the aroma of steamed buns, she found herself gradually falling behind the rhythm of the square dance group.
She just turned 50 this year, and in order to maintain her figure and look good even when she gets older, she goes to the park every night to dance and exercise.
I eat very little for dinner, sometimes just some fruit and skipping dinner altogether.
This involves a lot of physical activity like dancing, and I'm already hungry.
It's alright if you can't smell the aroma of food.
But the aroma of the steamed bun kept wafting into her nose, distracting her. Her stomach was also rumbling, and her mind was already on the bun. She couldn't care less about dancing to the rhythm.
Appetite can be very tormenting, especially when you're hungry.
People with weak willpower will definitely not be able to control their desire to eat.
Ms. Wang Chuanjuan is clearly not a person of strong will.
Seeing that she was too hungry to jump anymore, she decided to break away from the group and follow the aroma to find steamed buns.
If you're dieting every day, is it okay to indulge yourself occasionally?
Wang Chuanjuan comforted herself while sniffing and searching carefully.
Then, as I walked out of the park square, I saw Lin Zhou's steamed bun shop right at the entrance.
Woohoo!
Her nose wasn't mistaken; it really smelled like steamed buns.
There were people selling steamed buns at the park entrance late at night!
Ms. Wang Chuanjuan's eyes lit up, and she excitedly ran over.
Wearing sneakers, she walked briskly and arrived at Lin Zhou's stall in just a few steps.
"Boss, how much are the steamed buns?"
Upon hearing the sound, Lin Zhou first glanced at the time, then smelled the aroma emanating from the steamed buns.
With his superb culinary skills, he didn't need to lift the lid of the steamer to tell that the beef buns were still a bit undercooked, but the tofu buns were almost done.
He got up and turned off the stove where he was steaming tofu buns, then replied, "The beef buns will have to wait a while, but the spicy tofu buns can be eaten after simmering for another three minutes."
