Chapter 25 Messages from the Heavens
Seeing Isayama Koizumi leaving with the unwilling Tumiya Kagura, Zhao Youqian touched his chin.
"Why didn't the New Year Festival system prompt to release the task?"
Originally, he thought that according to Isayama Koizumi's identity, if there was a request or request, he should release one or two tasks, but he didn't expect that the current system is like a pool of stagnant water, and there is no response at all.
This made him wonder how the mission was triggered.
"Forget it, hurry up and clear the dining table, and prepare for today's business!"
After tidying up the leftovers on the dining table, rinsed them with water to remove the saltiness, Zhao Youqian sent the leftovers to the back of the house, and a few wild cats who had been crying for food ran out.
"That's all that's left today. If it's not enough, go around and catch some mice."
After touching a few wild cats close to him, Zhao You stroked the cats a few times, and then left directly.
And not long after he left, a black kitten with three tails also entered the alley, took a look at the wild cats who were eating, and made these little guys froze with just one look.
But soon the three-tailed black cat left the alley, and the wild cats continued to eat after hesitating for a while.
Even though blanching removes a lot of flavor, the heart and energy contained in these foods are much higher than many special pet foods.
"Um?"
Zhao Youqian seemed to have undergone meditation and ritual practice, and was very sensitive to abnormal energy, vaguely aware of something passing outside his small shop.
But because there are often hundreds of ghosts patrolling and guarding here, Zhao Youqian just turned around in his mind and put this matter behind him.
Light up the lights of the small shop, and soon the commercial street will usher in the busiest time of the day again.
The previous few parades did not seem to affect the prosperity of the lower commercial street, and it was still brightly lit until midnight.
Drunk drinkers shuttle back and forth on the street. In places like the Lower Commercial Street, even if there are really blind people who want to do something, they must pay attention to the police booths in front of and behind the street.
So this is also a place where nearby residents get drunk, but feel at ease.
Even in Zhao Yougan's small restaurant, although the food is not good for the body, the outstanding taste has become the favorite of many drinkers.
Today, these drinkers are destined to get an unexpected surprise.
Alcoholic drinkers who had already drunk the second or third stall came to Zhao Youqian's small shop, ready to drink the last round and then went home, but they ate dishes that made them feel hot, full of the power of the ingredients, making them Part of the drunkenness was quickly dispelled.
I was surprised by Zhao Youqian's progress, but for all diners, getting more benefits for the same price is naturally a dream.
"Come again, today's dishes are really good!"
The man with a layer of oil on his face raised his wine glass and clinked glasses with his companion.
"That's right, let's have a few more drinks today"
I saw the man holding the wine glass waving at Zhao Yougan from afar.
"Boss, here are two more appetizers, you can do it!"
After Zhao Youqian, who was busy in the kitchen, heard it, he glanced at the small table over there, and then nodded in understanding.
"Okay, I'll serve you in a while!"
Then, he first prepared the stewed vegetables in his hands and sent them to the other table.
Unlike Yaozhou people who eat everything, Dongyingzhou prefers offal such as chicken and duck feet or liver. Zhao Yougan also usually prepares a pot of brine, which can be used for one day's braised vegetables.
The meat and vegetables should be stewed separately, and the beans should be stewed separately from the vegetarian dishes, otherwise the taste of the brine will be destroyed.
Don't look at the stewed vegetables as if they are made in one pot, in fact, there is a lot of knowledge in them.
This is also one of the reasons why his shop was not good for the body before, but it can continue to operate based on taste alone.
As a side dish and snack, stewed vegetables are also a favorite of many wine drinkers. The unit price of good-tasting stewed vegetables is not low, which is enough for him to continue his business, and there is still a slight surplus.
Just when Zhao Youqian put down the prepared stewed vegetables, suddenly a regular customer beside him spoke.
"The little boss doesn't know yet?"
Then his companion also pushed the wine glass and said with a blushing face.
"That must be true. The little boss goes to work in the afternoon every day until midnight, and he must be resting in the morning and during the day!"
Frowning, Zhao Youqian looked at the regular customers beside him who were already drunk.
"What's wrong with Uncle Long?"
During the day, he competed with Erina again, and Isayama Koizumi came to disturb him again, but he didn't know much about what happened in the commercial street.
"I do know that some company wants to redesign the commercial street. Is there anything else going on?"
Uncle Long and his face were flushed and he laughed.
"Look, I knew that the little boss didn't know, you have to buy me a drink later!"
Of course he didn't say this to Zhao Youqian, but raised his glass to his companions.
Shaking his head helplessly, his companion who was still awake pushed him.
"Just tell me, I can afford a glass of wine!"
Hearing this, Uncle Longji's eyes lit up, and he looked at Zhao Youqian.
"It's like this, that city life planning company organized a commercial street delicacy competition, saying it was to discover those real delicious small restaurants, tsk tsk tsk."
"I could see it right away. This is to prepare for the follow-up project in the future!"
Delicious competition on the commercial street?
Zhao Youqian showed a pensive look, and at the same time the already silent system jumped out.
"Mission: Enter the final round of the commercial street delicious competition."
"Reward: 500 points, depending on the influence caused as a benchmark, reaching more than 80% of the completion, there will be a certain point reward bonus, and the additional reward will increase the level of information details for the next time the heavens diners! "
A flash of astonishment flashed across his face. Isayama Koizumi's invitation did not trigger the task before, but he did not expect that a small commercial street competition would trigger the task instead.
‘Does it mean that too long-term goals cannot cause the system to form tasks? '
While thinking about it, Zhao Youqian felt that he should have mastered some rules.
"Little boss? Little boss??"
While he was still thinking, his eyes suddenly trembled. It turned out that Uncle Long Ji in front of him was pushing him.
"Give us two more beers!"
As soon as the voice fell, it seemed to ignite the fiery atmosphere in the small shop, and soon the voices of adding orders sounded one by one.
"Boss give me two more bottles of sake!"
"Boss, here are three grilled skewers and two braised vegetable platters!"
Zhao Youqian, who quickly turned back into the owner of the small shop, showed a confident smile.
"Yes, yes! Come soon!"
As for tasks and the like, let's talk about it tomorrow.
