On the ninety-ninth floor, Lu Yao was lying on the fence, the wind was whistling
in her ears, and her hair was blown into a frenzy. There was a lingering mist below, and it was impossible to see the bottom. The concrete fence she was holding was rough and cold. She passed through the door of her own store and came here.
The system showed that this was the other world, the real address of her first store.
When Lu Yao was about to graduate from her senior year, she went out for a trip with her friends and encountered an accident on the way.
When she woke up from the hospital, she had an other world business dream-fulfilling system on her body.
The system manual said that by constantly opening stores in the other world, the host's wish could eventually be realized.
And the system showed that Lu Yao had made a wish when she agreed to be bound.
But Lu Yao seemed to have lost some of her memories in an accident. She didn't remember binding to the system, nor could she remember the wish she had made.
The system ignored all that and, detecting that the host was conscious, kept urging her to open a store to fulfill her wish.
On the day that Lu Yao agreed to go to another world to open a store, she received a call from her lawyer, saying that a distant relative whose name she didn't know had passed away, leaving behind an abandoned commercial street, with her name written on the will.
This commercial street was in Yaoguang City, and Lu Yao went to see it with the lawyer. After making sure there were no problems, they signed the contract.
After inheriting the commercial street, Lu Yao picked a small store and cleaned and renovated it.
After a week of preparation, the store looked brand new.
On the opening day, she opened the door of her shop, and the scene outside changed completely, directly into another world.
The sky was gray, and the sun was like a hairy dumpling hanging in the middle, without much heat.
In the distance, tall buildings stood tall, hidden in the white mist, with shadows looming.
At first glance, this world was similar to the world where Lu Yao lived, except that there was no sound around, and no one was seen.
The location of her shop was also tricky. Would there be any customers patronizing such a high floor?
Lu Yao suppressed a trace of worry and went back to the store to move things.
She pushed out the grill, and the charcoal fire had already burned red. Next to the grill was an integrated cooking table, with bottles and jars of condiments and kitchen utensils.
Her first store is a snack bar, and currently only sells grilled chicken wings.
After cleaning the grill, Lu Yao took out the large chicken wings that had been marinated for a day and a night, brushed them with oil and put them on the charcoal fire. The oil dripped onto the red charcoal, making a "sizzle" sound.
She turned around and moved out a folding table, unfolded it and placed it on the open space in front of the store, put four stools on it, and put paper towels and tableware on it.
Preparations for opening the store are complete.
Coming here alone, without any connections or publicity, and the store is so remote, business probably won't be good on the first day of opening.
Lu Yao was thinking this when a thin, sharp voice came from behind her: "How much are the grilled wings?" Lu
Yao turned around and saw a customer standing in front of the stall she had just opened.
The young man was very tall and thin, wearing a long green gown, with slightly long black hair draped over his forehead. On his thin and feminine face, his eye circles were dark, his pupils were large and black, and there was almost no white in his eyes. Lu
Yao's heart skipped a beat. Where did he come from? There was no sound at all.
The young man frowned slightly and glanced at the menu. There was only one dish: spicy grilled wings, which were divided into four flavors: mild spicy, medium spicy, spicy, and hell spicy.
He made a decision quickly, and tapped the menu with his slender fingers, "Give me a pair of hell spicy grilled wings."
Lu Yao came back to his senses: "Okay."
She selected a pair of golden and sizzling chicken wings from the charcoal grill, brushed them with a layer of red chili oil, put them on the fire and continued to grill them, while sprinkling cumin, pepper powder and homemade spicy chili powder.
After repeating the action of brushing chili oil and sprinkling seasonings three times, the dish was removed from the heat and placed on a plate. The dish was brushed with chili oil again and sprinkled with white sesame seeds and fresh green onions. Lu Yao asked, "Do you want to eat here or take it away?"
The young man glanced at the table next to him and hesitated for a moment, "Eat here."
"Okay." Lu Yao handed the grilled wings to the customer and poured him a glass of ice water.
[Successfully sold a pair of grilled wings, the initial task is completed! Popularity value 1, store dish 1. ]
A translucent screen appeared in front of Lu Yao, showing an empty menu, and a blank dish column under the grilled wings.
She thought for a while. Just because there was no drink, she gave the customer a glass of water. It was better to add a drink to the new dish.
Ice milk can relieve the spiciness and greasiness, and it is a perfect match with the spicy grilled wings.
Lu Yao typed the three words "Ice Milk" on the menu.
After confirming, Lu Yao didn't have to worry about it, and the new product "Ice Milk" was automatically added to the menu in front of the stall and in the store.
[You have a new task! Sell ten pairs of grilled wings and ten boxes of ice milk, and you will be rewarded with ten points of popularity and 1 new dish. ]
She has purchased milk, but food that is not on the menu cannot be sold in the other world, so it is still in the freezer.
Lu Yao turned around and went back to the store to move the milk.
The young man's name was Qing. He looked at the chicken wings in front of him, his black round eyes full of confusion.
The chicken wings were steaming, and the white sesame seeds and bright green onions sprinkled on the wings were particularly eye-catching. It smelled very fragrant, just like the real thing.
Qing knew that the 99th floor theme park in Area A was highly rated, so he came here today to inspect and learn. He didn't expect that the snack bars outside the theme park were so realistic and professional, and even the smell could be simulated.
Unfortunately, no matter how realistic it is, it is only on the surface. When you put it in your mouth, you will know that it is just air, invisible and tasteless.
Thinking of this, Qing didn't want to move, and might as well watch for the eye.
Lu Yao came out with milk in his arms, and saw the customer staring at the grilled wings motionlessly, thinking that he was afraid of spicy food, "It tastes better while it's hot. If you are afraid of spicy food, the store just sold spicy ice milk."
Qing thought to himself that the owner was also professional. He knew that it was all fake, but he was still afraid of spicy food.
He lowered his head and smiled, picked up a chicken wing, opened his mouth, revealing two rows of fine saw-like fangs, and took a light bite.
He thought it was just another fight between his upper and lower teeth. The tender and smooth chicken skin was easily bitten, and the rich juice overflowed. The spicy taste kept stabbing his tongue like a blade. It
was stimulating and fresh.
Qing's eyes widened, his eyelids opened to reveal a little white, and his dull and dark eyes instantly became bright, emitting a light of excitement.
He ate the spicy chicken wings in two bites, biting and swallowing the bamboo skewers and bones, ignoring the tears and snot flowing down, and quickly picked up the second one.
Lu Yao's scalp tingled, especially the shark teeth in the mouth after the young man opened his mouth. He was not a normal person at all.
What kind of world is this? Are the monsters who look like humans living here?
Qing finished a pair of spicy grilled wings, looked at Lu Yao, and said eagerly: "Two more pairs, no, five more pairs of hellish spicy grilled wings."
After a moment of shock, Lu Yao quickly calmed down, put down the milk, put the chicken wings on the grill, "Okay."
No matter what world it is, she is just a grilled wing seller now.
After tasting the deliciousness, the waiting time became particularly long.
Qing picked up the ice water on the table. The water itself has no taste, but it tastes particularly comfortable after adding ice.
He gulped down the water and even poured the ice cubes into his mouth to chew and swallow. The
grilled wings have not come up yet, and Qing can't help but look around this small shop.
The store is not big, facing the elevator entrance on the 99th floor, and people coming up can see it at a glance.
He just found this store in this way. At first glance, he felt that the store was particularly real, and he secretly sighed that it was worthy of being the highest-rated theme park in Zone A, and the environment experience was first-class.
When he got closer, he was attracted by the aroma of grilled wings and didn't pay attention to his surroundings.
With his eyes slightly moved, Qing saw the huge sign on the door of the store: Lu Yao Snack Shop.
Qing couldn't help asking: "Your name is Lu Yao?"
Lu Yao turned around and nodded with a smile: "Yes."
Qing looked at Lu Yao carefully. The girl had black hair, snow-white skin, soft looks, rosy lips, and a vigorous vitality. She looked a bit like a challenger entering the theme park.
But no challenger has ever come here alive from the theme park.
Qing had some questions in his mind, and at this time Luyao brought two pairs of grilled chicken wings. Without bothering to ask anything else, Qing grabbed the chicken wings and started eating.
The chicken was tender and juicy, and he loved the spicy taste that felt like a sharp knife cutting his tongue. It was so wonderful.
The remaining three pairs of grilled wings were quickly delivered. Qing took a tissue to wipe his tears and snot, grinned and said loudly: "Five boxes of ice milk!"
The ice milk was cool and smooth, with a rich milky aroma and a hint of sweetness. It was more comfortable to drink than ice water.
Drink a sip of milk, eat two bites of spicy grilled wings, and drink another sip of milk if it was too spicy, and repeat endlessly.
Qing finished ten large grilled wings in a short while.
After licking off the chili oil and spices on his fingers, he sighed with satisfaction, "Shopkeeper, pack ten pairs of grilled wings and ten boxes of ice milk."
Lu Yao looked up, "There are only five pairs of chicken wings left." It
was the first day of opening the store, so the stock was relatively small.
"I want them all."
"Okay."
Qing took the heavy takeaway box and said solemnly, "My name is Qing, and I will come again."
After Qing left, the white mist shrouding the ninety-ninth floor slowly dissipated.
Lu Yao found that with her shop as the center line, on the left was a luxuriously decorated movie theater, and on the right was a strange store called "Paradise", and it was hard to tell what kind of store it was. Seeing
the movie theater, Lu Yao suddenly felt relieved.
There are also movie theaters in the other world, which means that the development level of this world is probably similar to her world.
Her store happens to be outside a movie theater, and there are no other stores around. The geographical location is unique, and the original worry about customer flow is no longer a problem.
[Successfully sold ten pairs of chicken wings and ten boxes of ice milk, mission completed! Popularity value +10, new dish 1]
[Use ten points of popularity to upgrade the store to an alien space, do you want to upgrade? ]
To open a store in an alien world, you need a door.
This door serves as a passage for the owner to connect to the designated alien world. The original space inside the door cannot be connected to the alien world and can only be used as a warehouse.
After the upgrade, the entire store becomes an alien space where two worlds overlap, and people from the alien world can also dine in the store.
Lu Yao chose to upgrade without hesitation.
During the upgrade, the store enters maintenance status. The items in the store could not be moved, and everything seemed to be still.
The upgrade and maintenance would take two hours, and the chicken wings in the store had just run out, and a new dish had to be added, so she had to go to the supermarket to buy some.
Lu Yao took off her apron and gloves, took her phone and pushed open the door.
The road outside was wide, the sun was scorching, and the wind carried the fragrance of grass and trees. She returned to her own world.
Two hours later, Lu Yao returned to the store breathlessly, carrying a large bag of ingredients and two boxes of milk.
[The store has been upgraded successfully and is currently a one-star store. Please keep up the hard work, owner! ]
[You have a new task! Receive one hundred guests and be rewarded with one hundred points of popularity! ]
After the store was upgraded, there was no change from the outside.
When Lu Yao pushed the door open and entered the other world, she found that her shop was bright and new compared to other buildings around it.
The popularity was not in vain, as the snack bar looked more eye-catching than the luxuriously decorated movie theater next
door. Lu Yao looked at it for a few seconds and then left it alone. She went into the house to prepare tomorrow's ingredients and put the milk in the freezer.
After washing the chicken wings, she cut the edges and marinated them with the secret sauce. The marinating time for chicken wings is long, at least twelve hours, so she prepared more this time. Lu
Yao has also thought about the new dishes.
At present, she is the only one in the store, so it is best to prepare this dish in advance to give customers more choices.
The chicken wings are salty and spicy, and as a person who loves both salty and sweet foods, the new dish is decided to be a dessert.
Besides, the world is a bit cold, so hot food might be more popular. She opened the menu and added a new dish between grilled wings and ice milk.
The next morning, Lu Yao opened the door, pushed out the grill, and started business.
Half an hour after opening, there was no customer.
Lu Yao went back to the store to get some ingredients, put a small milk pan on the grill, fried two slices of toast and an egg, and scooped a bowl of sweet soup from the big pot next to the grill, then sat down to prepare for breakfast.
A nice female voice sounded next to her: "Your breakfast looks really good."
Lu Yao was stunned. It was like this again, appearing silently.
She tilted her head and saw a short-haired girl in a pink suspender skirt standing by the table, staring blankly at her fried eggs, toast and sweet soup.
Lu Yao lowered his head and took a sip of the sweet soup, smiling and saying, "It not only looks good, it tastes good too."
The short-haired girl was attracted by the way she ate, and took out a bucket of popcorn from behind her, "Can I exchange popcorn for your sweet soup?" Lu
Yao thought for a moment and agreed.
She got up and filled another bowl of sweet soup, and when she came back the girl had already sat down.
Xingzi looked down at the sweet soup in front of her. The milky white soup was steaming, and there were white dumplings, fermented glutinous rice and red wolfberries in the soup, and there was a faint aroma of wine.
Although she knew it was fake, Xingzi couldn't help swallowing her saliva.
She picked up the spoon, scooped up the wine-brewed balls, and the boiling sweet soup rolled into her mouth with the aroma of wine. The dumplings were sticky, soft and sweet.
Xingzi dropped the spoon and looked up at Lu Yao in shock.
Lu Yao had just eaten two popcorns and was now confused.
The popcorn had no texture or taste when it was stuffed into her mouth, and her upper and lower teeth were fighting, as if she had not eaten it.
She stuffed a few more popcorns into her mouth, but they still had no taste when they went in.
Lu Yao frowned and asked, "Why is your popcorn the same as air?"
Xingzi blinked, "Why is your sweet soup so sweet?"
