Chapter 6 The First Store



[After deducting 100 points of popularity, you can start live broadcasting in 13 districts across the country. The live broadcast signal can only cover three districts at present. Please choose the live broadcast area. ]

A gray map appeared in front of Lu Yao. The map marked 13 districts with English numbers, from District A to District M. Lu Yao's store is located in District A.

With District A as the center, there are Districts B, D, H and M around it. The other districts are basically separated from District A by one to two districts. For example, there is a District B between District C and District A.

Lu Yao thought that it was not that easy. To achieve the achievement of "fame spread far and wide", you have to unlock 13 districts one by one.

Then adopt the principle of proximity, and then go from near to far. She chose District A, District B and District D, which are the three areas closest to the snack bar, for live broadcasting.

A warehouse panel appeared in front of Lu Yao. The small warehouse currently has only thirty-six grids. The first grid contains time, and the second grid has three more black-winged red-striped butterflies.

There were no butterflies yesterday. When were these little butterflies put in?

[Flying live broadcast device, a device that comes with the live broadcast function. During the live broadcast, they will automatically track, shoot, receive audio, and intelligently code. After the end, they will automatically return to the warehouse. ]

This function is very convenient. You don’t have to hold up your phone or device yourself. It happened that the store had just been upgraded, so you can live broadcast the new decoration in the store.

Before the live broadcast started, Lu Yao remembered something, "Is there internet here? Where can residents watch the live broadcast?"

System: [No internet is needed. Residents will watch it in the cinema. ]

Cinema?

Lu Yao had a lot of questions in her mind, but the system did not answer her doubts. The set live broadcast time was up.

After a "beep", three butterflies flew out of the warehouse and surrounded Lu Yao.

At the same time, a row of small text ads appeared at the bottom of the screens in all the theaters in Area A, Area B, and Area C that were broadcasting live games. At first, no one noticed it. The ads played in a loop for five minutes before someone saw them.

In front of Lu Yao was a rectangular transparent screen similar to a mobile phone screen. The number of people watching the live broadcast, the popularity value, and a button for sending gifts were visible on the side.

For the first two minutes, there was no one in the live broadcast room.

After almost five minutes, several people came in one after another, and Lu Yao started the live broadcast.

There was actually a bullet screen rolling across the top of the screen.

"What are the rules of this game? Why can't I see any challengers?"

"It's too bright, not exciting at all."

"Where are the NPCs? Where are the challengers? Why is there no sound?"

Lu Yao didn't know what to say on her first live broadcast.

She pushed the door open again from outside and fully demonstrated the upgraded store.

If there were guests who had been to Lu Yao's snack bar in the live broadcast room at this time, they would be surprised to find that the snack bar had completely changed overnight.

Lu Yao spent the popularity value to expand the space in the store by two times. The entire layout of the store was changed, and the dining area and kitchen were re-divided.

Entering from the store door, there is an ordering counter against the wall, with menus, snack bar business cards and cash codes.

Next to the ordering counter is a set of transparent glass cabinets, with an operating table below, where tableware can be placed and drinks can be prepared.

The glass cabinet has a preservation function and is used to store fresh fruits and yogurt ingredients. At this time, there is a plate of washed fresh strawberries in it.

The wall behind the glass cabinet has been transformed into a storage rack, which holds various types of glassware and some ingredients for making drinks, such as rum and jam.

This area is Xingzi's work area. Luyao is preparing to hire another waiter, so Xingzi doesn't have to look after the guests.

The number of people in the live broadcast room is slowly increasing, from nine people at the beginning to thirty-one people watching at this time, with bullet screens floating by from time to time.

"I've never seen such brightly colored scenes before. It's a bit fresh."

"It's so weird. There's nothing exciting, but I'm so excited."

"This is the first time there's no game content. I feel calm just watching the scenes. Calm, not boring."

Lu Yao occasionally glanced at the bar screen. These viewers seemed to have mistaken it for a live game broadcast.

She still hadn't thought about what to say, so she simply kept silent and continued to live broadcast the situation in the store.

Walking past the bar, next to it is the kitchen area, an open transparent kitchen separated by heat-resistant glass.

There is a pull-out bamboo curtain above. If the chef doesn't like being watched by others, he can put the curtain down to block the guests' sight.

The kitchen area is not very large at present, but all the space is used as much as possible.

There are two deep-refrigeration freezers, a half-wall cupboard, shelves for storing fresh ingredients and seasonings, and three cooking tables with food delivery windows, stoves, and utensils.

This area is temporarily the work area of ​​Bai Ming and Lu Yao. Lu Yao plans to hire two more people to work in the kitchen, and she can retire.

However, there is no food in this world, and she does not expect to recruit any professional talents. She will only wait until she recruits the right people and then train them.

A few minutes later, the number of people watching the live broadcast increased to sixty-one.

"What's the game number? I want to try it out."

"Is this a kitchen? The scene is so detailed. It would be nice if you could cook in it."

Lu Yao saw this barrage and couldn't help but said, "Of course you can cook. After I show you the dining area, I'll prepare breakfast."

"!!! The NPC is talking?"

"What kind of game is this? So fresh and unpretentious."

"I agree. The games in Paradise are becoming more and more extreme and bloody. I'm numb to them. This game feels so healing at the moment!"

"...I'm so afraid that the NPC will be killed by the challenger suddenly. I'm tired of that routine."

Lu Yao looked at the bullet screen floating by, turned around, and did not explain anything. Instead, he began to introduce: "This is the dining area. Because customers like these illusions, we made some adjustments."

In the screen, the dining area, which originally had only one window, has been expanded several times, and the number of windows has also increased.

Lu Yao used an additional 200 popularity points to expand the alien space in the store and added four windows, so now there are five tables by the window.

The alien space and the real space are equivalent to the inner and outer layers. The outer space seems to have not changed much, but the inner space can be expanded infinitely. Because the real space outside is only that big and the position has not changed, the views from the five windows are actually the same.

In order to make a distinction, Lu Yao went to the flower and bird market next to the farmers' market yesterday afternoon and bought 20 pots of succulents, which were placed on five windowsills in different spaces, so that each windowill looked different.

When upgrading, Lu Yao also asked the system to do some disguise, making the scenery outside the window look a little dim, more like an illusion.

The camera turned to the dining area with Lu Yao's perspective, revealing the design of the windowill. The number of live broadcasters suddenly soared, from more than 60 to 130 people, the bullet screen became lively, and some people recognized this place.

[The live broadcast audience has reached a gratifying 100, and the popularity value is 10]

"Oh my god! This is a snack bar? The owner is you!"

[Received a skull necklace from "Little Handsome"!]

[Received a gift, popularity value 20]

Lu Yao blinked his eyes. It turns out that the number of viewers and gifts can increase the popularity value. This is quite interesting.

"Really! Wow, there are more windows. Do I have a chance to sit there and eat?"

"It has become five. It's really an illusion. I thought..."

"What are you talking about? What snack bar? Isn't this in the game?"

...

The bullet screen was in a mess. Lu Yao saw the time in the upper right corner of the screen. Xingzi and Bai Ming were coming.

Anxious to see the results of the store upgrade, Lu Yao arrived earlier.

Bai Ming and Xingzi usually come at the right time and eat some leftovers before the store opens.

Lu Yao wants to make a formal breakfast today, mainly because he is a bit tired of eating the food in the store.

The audience asked about the information of "Lu Yao Snack Shop" in the barrage. Except for the people in Area A, people in Area B and Area D have basically never heard of such a snack shop, and some people began to question it.

"I don't believe it. How could there be such a snack bar? I'd rather believe it's a game."

"It's fun to watch it as a game, but forget about the real snack bar. Everyone knows it's fake."

"Forget it. The snack bar is about to open. I know I should go and queue up, but I don't want to go out. The owner's live broadcast is so healing." Lu Yao

walked into the kitchen, took out the minced meat that he had mixed last night, glanced at the little butterfly that flew to the front, and whispered, "I don't have any talent. I'm just making breakfast."

The audience didn't care at first, thinking that Lu Yao was going to use their traditional art magic to pinch food.

When they saw Lu Yao find a handful of green onions, wash and chop them, and mix them into the minced meat, they began to realize that something was wrong.

Lu Yao brought a clean plate, took out the wonton wrappers she had bought in advance from the refrigerator, and started making wontons with a bowl of water.

Her movements were smooth, and she made them quickly and well.

Since she was going to eat them herself, she liked big wontons with lots of meat, and the wontons she made lay on the plate like small ingots.

"Oh my god, this is really a master!"

"I never expected that I would be fascinated by watching people make wontons. It's really healing!"

"I declare that this is the best game content I have seen this year! Ahhhhh, I want to eat it so much!"

Lu Yao moved quickly, and the portions for three people were ready in less than ten minutes.

She put the pot on the stove to boil water, and washed a handful of green leaves. While Lu Yao was seasoning, Bai Ming and Xingzi came.

The two met at the door and nodded to each other as a greeting.

Bai Ming pushed the door open and entered the store. He stood at the door and suddenly stopped moving. Xingzi pushed him, "What's wrong?"

Bai Ming silently made way for Xingzi, who also saw the changes in the store, "Oh my God!"

How did the store become like this this evening?

Lu Yao heard the voice and looked up and greeted, "You are here. I am making breakfast and it will be ready soon."

Xingzi and Bai Ming walked over, with curiosity in their eyes: "Manager, what did you do?" Lu Yao

suddenly thought of something and whispered: "I am live streaming now. Do you two mind being in the camera? You can not take pictures of your faces." Live

streaming?

Xingzi and Bai Ming were even more surprised that the manager was actually live streaming.

The water was boiling, Lu Yao threw the vegetable leaves in to cook them, picked them up and put them in a bowl, and put the wontons in.

The wontons were put into boiling water and floated up after a while. Each one was thin-skinned and big-filled, and was particularly cute.

Pick them up and throw them into a bowl of clear soup, sprinkle with white pepper and chopped green onions, and serve with a small dish of chili oil for dipping. It was so fragrant.

"Why are you standing there? It's time to have breakfast." Lu Yao took chopsticks and a spoon and placed them on the edge of the bowl, urging Bai Ming and Xingzi.

The two of them woke up as if from a dream, picked up their own portions and followed Lu Yao, and the three of them sat down by the window. Outside

the window was the chilly scenery of early spring, and in front of them was a bowl of steaming soup wontons, which looked so fragrant.

At this time, there were more than 500 people watching the live broadcast, and some people began to swipe gifts like crazy.

[Received a skull necklace from "Little Handsome Man".] [

Received a red spider lily from "Little Tiaohua".]

[Received ninety-nine red spider lilies from "Meow Jiang Loves Fish".]

...

"Oh my god, this wonton is steaming! It looks delicious."

"Shopkeeper, I'll come to your shop right away, I want to eat soup wontons too!"

"You guys should eat quickly! I've been waiting for this bite, eat quickly!"

Lu Yao scooped up a wonton, blew on it, and was the first to eat it cleanly without the chili oil.

[The live broadcast time is about to end. Spend 100 popularity points to extend the live broadcast time. Do you want to extend it? 】

Lu Yao wanted to open the door immediately, and she probably couldn’t attend the live broadcast to greet the guests. “No, let’s talk about it next time.”

In the small theater’s screening room, hundreds of audience members stared with wide eyes, waiting for Lu Yao to eat the wonton, as if they could eat it themselves after seeing her eat it.

“Swoosh——” the screen went black.

The audience collapsed.

“Hey, administrator, come and have a look, there’s something wrong with the live broadcast!”

“Please hurry up, I’m going to eat the hot wontons soon!”

“Ah——what’s going on! Where is the park administrator? Come and fix it quickly, I want to eat wontons!”

I still thought it was the audience of the live game who were wailing, but those old-timers who used to patronize Lu Yao’s snack bar in Area A had quietly left the cinema and rushed to the snack bar on the 99th floor.

That bowl of wonton soup was simply killing me!

In the snack bar, Lu Yao bit into the wonton, added ice cubes when chopping the meat filling, and added shrimp, ginger, and chopped green onions. It was refreshing and chewy, and the fragrance lingered on the lips and teeth. Drinking it with the clear soup sprinkled with a lot of pepper, the whole person warmed up.

After eating three clear soup wontons in a row, Lu Yao put down the spoon, picked up a wonton with chopsticks, and coated it with secret chili oil. The first thing he tasted was the fragrance of the chili oil, and then the spicy and warm taste was another kind of taste.

Bai Ming and Xingzi sat on either side of Lu Yao, their eyes wandering as they ate wonton soup like her.

This bowl of wonton soup tasted light, and was not as stimulating to them as the spicy grilled wings and grilled pig's trotters, but it had a different aftertaste, and they couldn't stop eating one bite at a time.

In the middle of the meal, Xingzi finally remembered to ask: "Manager, how did the store become like this?"

Lu Yao: "Customers all like this window, so I thought about expanding it. I worked on it all night and it became like this. Is my illusion still okay? Everyone doesn't have to fight for the window anymore."

Lu Yao tried very hard to create the persona of a "master of illusion". Bai Ming and Xingzi looked at each other across her, thinking that she was really trying hard, so they shouldn't expose her.

The two of them accepted Lu Yao's statement tacitly, and were ready to explain it in the same way when faced with customers' inquiries.

Lu Yao ran away in the middle of the live broadcast, and those who watched the live broadcast in the cinema in Area B and Area D collapsed.

My mind was completely occupied by the bowl of steaming wonton soup sprinkled with finely crushed white pepper and emerald green onions. I could smell the fragrance with my eyes closed, but I couldn't put it in my mouth.

That's right!

Area A, 99th floor, the pop-up screen said that the store is there!
