He didn't have the time to check the mission or anything else. He stood up excitedly and paced around the room twice. In the end, he found this behavior to be very silly. Then he sat down and switched his phone on and off, making the phone a little unbearable.
Countless thoughts flashed in his mind, but they could be summed up in one sentence. "Master Chef System? I'm going to reach the peak of my life. "
The restaurant was the result of his parents' decades of hard work. However, there was a traffic accident on the way to purchase goods in less than two years. That year, he was in his third year of college. At that time, both his parents died and he suddenly became an orphan. He broke down emotionally and had no time to attend to his studies. He had to take a break from school and barely got his graduation certificate one year later.
In this prosperous city, he couldn't find a good job with such a degree. In the end, he could only work as a kitchen assistant in a big restaurant. At first, he wanted to learn cooking to continue his father's dream, but it turned out that cooking required talent.
After two years of learning, he was still average. Then, someone happened to take a fancy to this shabby restaurant. One of the reasons was his disappointment. Also, he wanted to get rid of the shadow of his parents' death. Therefore, he decided to quit his job and start a new life elsewhere.
"Is this system my turning point and hope?" Thinking of this, Yuan Zhou clicked on the initial mission with an indescribable feeling.
[Mission] Own a restaurant of your own
(Mission hint: As a future Master Chef, how can you not have your own restaurant? Young man, work hard.)
"What kind of hint is this? What kind of hint is this? Is the system a joke? " With excitement, Yuan Zhou clicked on the mission. When he saw the words in brackets, he couldn't help complaining.
"Own a restaurant of my own? It seems that this is God's will. "Looking at the mission, Yuan Zhou sighed with emotion.
"Maybe this is also the expectation of my parents and they don't want me to leave."
All kinds of thoughts finally turned into determination. Yuan Zhou picked up the phone on the table, swiped the card interface, found Li Li's address book, hesitated for a moment, and then dialed her number.
After three rings, the phone was picked up.
"Hello, this is Li Li." A light and gentle female voice came from the other side.
"Um … Hello, I'm Yuan Zhou, the owner of the shop on Taoxi Road No. 14."
Yuan Zhou had only seen this female customer once. She had delicate facial features, and her shoulder-length hair was neatly tied into a bun. She was dressed in professional attire. To be honest, he didn't know that the woman wanted to rent the shop without even looking inside. Moreover, she didn't want to bargain. Now, he was going back on his word, so he inevitably felt a little embarrassed.
However, before Yuan Zhou could finish his words, the person on the other side of the phone said, "Oh, it's you. About the signing of the contract, right? Wait a moment. I have something urgent. Tell my brother that my brother will be in charge of the shop in the future."
Before Yuan Zhou could speak, a rough and arrogant male voice came from the other side of the phone. "We'll sign the contract at 1 pm tomorrow at your shop."
"I'm sorry, I called to tell you that I can't rent my shop to you anymore." Yuan Zhou was a little unhappy to be rebuked like this. However, when he thought of his purpose, he didn't beat around the bush and said it directly.
"What do you mean? Do you want to increase the rent? "The man on the other side of the phone sounded a little discontented. He didn't think that what Yuan Zhou said was true.
After all, he also knew about this shop. It had been posted for two years, but it hadn't been rented out yet. One reason was that this street was originally not a gourmet street, but merely a grocery street. There were all kinds of things sold, but they weren't very high-end. They were just common household items.
The location was also ordinary. Although there were several office buildings behind and white-collar customers, there was a gourmet street below the office buildings. Nowadays, the office workers were all lazy and didn't want to go there often. Therefore, the business on this street was really not good.
That was the situation. The person who wanted to rent the shop was not stupid. The reason why he still rented it without bargaining was that he had some inside information.
Although he was refused when he proposed to buy it at that time, he still rented it first and bought it later. In this way, he would definitely make a lot of money. And the situation of Yuan Zhou had been investigated clearly. He was just an orphan and definitely didn't have any background.
"No, it's my own problem. Anyway, we didn't sign the contract and I didn't even take the deposit. Let's just forget about the lease." Hearing that the man wanted to increase the rent, Yuan Zhou knitted his brows. Was he a man who loved money? However, he still explained it to him.
"What do you mean? Why don't you rent it again? Do you think your shop is so popular? I can increase 100 RMB every month." The man on the other side of the phone said anxiously and discontentedly that he wanted to increase the rent.
"I really don't want to increase the rent. It's just that I want to run my own business, so I don't want to rent it anymore."
"Hey, you …"
Before the man finished his words, Yuan Zhou hung up the phone. What a joke! It was him who made the call. If he continued to talk nonsense like this, it would exceed one minute. Just like what was mentioned before, Yuan Zhou wasn't a man who loved money. He loved money very much. Besides, there was no deposit and no contract. Once he said it was over, it would be over.
"Du Du Du"
After Li Li sent the customer off, she returned to the house. Her high heels made a clear sound when she stepped on the wooden board. Seeing her brother grimacing at her phone, she couldn't help smiling.
She said, "What's wrong with you? Why are you fighting with your phone? "
"That shop said it's not renting anymore." Li Li immediately recovered his calmness, but there was a little discontentment written on his face.
"Oh? Why? "Li Li raised her beautiful eyebrows and said in surprise.
"That guy said he wants to open his own shop. Forget it. Anyway, we have taken down four or five shops." Li Li's handsome face showed that he didn't care.
"Alright. What are you going to do?" Li Li didn't say anything more when she found her brother didn't care about it. She changed the topic and asked something else.
…
At the other side, Yuan Zhou appeared solemn and emptied his mind. He took the phone and poked at it aimlessly.
"Should I clean the shop by myself? Or should I clean it by myself?"
"By the way, there should be a reward for the mission. Where is the reward?" Yuan Zhou muttered to himself and started to search for the reward on the menu in his mind.
[Reward] God Tier Egg Fried Rice
God Tier Egg Fried Rice wasn't Egg Fried Rice? It was just like how the overlord of the beggars was still a beggar. What was the use of that?
"System, is this reward worthy of my mission?" The moment he saw the reward, Yuan Zhou didn't feel good.
The system displayed, "The most delicious Egg Fried Rice in the world."
"How is it delicious?" Yuan Zhou asked primly.
There was no explanation this time. There was only a line of lonely words, "Host, please complete the mission first."
"Alright. Explanation without explanation." Yuan Zhou mumbled and then continued to look at the menu. He was too excited just now and didn't have time to look at it carefully.
"Why is the talent of cooking unknown?"
Although Yuan Zhou knew that his talent might not be very high, what the hell was unknown?
"This system doesn't have the ability to detect talents. The talents of humans aren't fixed and unchanging." There was the same text explanation.
"Since you can't detect it, why do you have to mark it?" Yuan Zhou felt that he couldn't understand the system.
"It's more symmetrical this way." The system paused suspiciously for a while before the text appeared. However, it gave him a more weird feeling.
In order to avoid his intelligence being affected by a system, Yuan Zhou decided to ignore this question and continued reading.
"Five Dimensions of Cooking?"
The system displayed, "Especially color, aroma, taste, shape and meaning."
However, the dazzling word "rookie" also made Yuan Zhou realize the level of his cooking skills. He couldn't help feeling frustrated. However, when he thought of the system he already had, he instantly regained his confidence.
Therefore, he started to complete the mission now.
