Liu Qinghuan carefully wiped the counter, tables, and chairs first, then swept and mopped the floor. He was already hungry, and when he finished and stood up, he suddenly felt his vision go dark.
However, the prompt box soon appeared in front of him.
[Mission Completed! Rewards Distributing]
In the blink of an eye, twenty eggs, a bag of about ten pounds of white rice and a bundle of green onions appeared on the table in front of Liu Qinghuan.
Liu Qinghuan looked at the lineup, swallowed his saliva, and the taste of fried rice flashed in his mind.
[D-Rank Mission: Complete your first meal after traveling across time! Mission Reward: 3,000 Copper Coins]
I even paid for the meal! I have to take all the good things for granted.
Liu Qinghuan still clicked "Accept the task", carried the ingredients and lifted the curtain leading to the backyard, and a narrow and messy courtyard appeared before his eyes.
Liu Qinghuan first placed the ingredients on the millstone, intending to see what was in the backyard.
I opened the doors one by one. On the left side of the courtyard was the woodshed, next to it was the utility room. The largest room, facing the gate, was the kitchen. Opposite the utility room and the woodshed was a small door, next to which was the toilet. Opposite the kitchen, next to the main hall, were two rooms with kangs (kang-beds), each housing two or three people.
There is a well in the middle of the courtyard, and a large millstone next to it. There are many large porcelain jars against the wall, which contain some self-fermented soy sauce, pickles and other things.
With all the stuff piled up, the originally small courtyard was left with only a small path leading to each room.
Liu Qinghuan looked through them, closed the doors one by one, and went to the kitchen with the ingredients.
I didn't look carefully just now. After Liu Qinghuan put the ingredients in place, he opened the bottles and jars in the kitchen.
Fortunately, although there were no other ingredients in the kitchen, all the condiments such as oil, salt, sauce and vinegar were available.
Liu Qinghuan first washed the rice, then washed a scallion, and then cleaned the pot and kitchen utensils.
Then she went to the woodshed and brought some firewood. As a child she had lived in the countryside, so she knew how to start a fire. She picked up the flint nearby and ignited the dry grass for kindling.
It was easy to make a fire. Liu Qinghuan liked to eat harder rice, so he put a bowl of half-cooked rice and water in a 1:1 ratio into the pot, dripped a drop of peanut oil into it, and covered the pot.
Eat rice for one meal and scrambled eggs for the next, and make do for the day.
With this in mind, Liu Qinghuan took advantage of the time while the rice was cooking to chop the green onions into small pieces and beat four eggs.
After doing all this, Liu Qinghuan continued to look around the kitchen.
There are three pots in the kitchen, all of the same size, with no discernible difference.
There is a large water tank at the entrance, and a wooden barrel is stacked next to it.
There was a four-layer wooden rack behind the stove, with some rotten vegetable leaves on it. Liu Qinghuan judged that this was the place where the ingredients were stored.
There was a cabinet in the corner. Liu Qinghuan opened it and found that the cabinet was empty except for a large can of peanut oil and a small box of tea of unknown quality. Liu Qinghuan threw the bag of rice in, but the cabinet was still pitifully empty.
There were two jars of wine on the table against the wall. I guess the alcohol content was not high. One jar was unopened and the other was half drunk.
These are all the furnishings and things in the kitchen. The kitchen is not small, but it feels empty.
"We need drinks. Tea and wine alone won't do," Liu Qinghuan muttered to himself. "The menu needs to be reworked, too."
Liu Qinghuan just looked in the lobby. There was a sign hanging on the counter, which listed five stir-fries and a soup. This was the entire menu of this restaurant in the past.
There are reasons why business is bad.
Who would come back to eat these six dishes? There aren’t many repeat customers.
