The first thing I did was to find out

Chapter 119 Liang Zhu (V)

After Qin Huai parked his car in the underground parking lot, he wanted to go home and rest. Luo Jun refused to let him go, thinking that Qin Huai must have gone home to secretly read his memories, so he asked Qin Huai to take him home and finish reading his memories at his home.

Regarding Luo Jun's extreme distrust of him, Qin Huai could only say:

Really good at reading people.

After Luo Jun sent Zhang Shumei out to buy another pot of spider plant, Qin Huai opened the game panel.

A new main task appears in the task panel.

[King of Single Items]: As a new restaurant that has initially established itself, having a few single items that customers praise is the capital for your future fame. Players are requested to make Yunzhong Canteen have 5 daily sales, with a praise rate of no less than 98%, and at least 1000 customers think that this is the best dish of this kind they have ever eaten.

Mission Reward: Popularity Drainage +1000, [A Dream of ? ? ?] (Choice: Yes/No)
Qin Huai finally discovered that the quest rewards were all names of characters in the illustrated books that he hadn't unlocked yet. This game system really didn't let him exploit any loopholes. It was impossible to get a sneak peek at the characters before unlocking the illustrated books.

After accepting the main quest of [King of Single Items], you can check the current progress of the quest.

Good news, there are currently two items in the cafeteria that have passed the test, namely, fermented glutinous rice steamed buns and tangerine peel tea.

Bad news, I have no idea about the remaining three items.

Qin Huai felt that there was no hope for the three-ding buns and the five-ding buns. Although these two kinds of buns were delicious, they were common dim sum in Huaiyang and sold in many stores. Unless Qin Huai's cooking skills were already so good that they were far superior to others, it would be very difficult for a dish to become the best in the eyes of customers.

But there is no rush for the main quest.

The strategy objectives for this mission reward haven't appeared yet, wait until they appear before you rush.

After Qin Huai finished reading the main task, he turned his attention to Luo Jun, who was leaning comfortably on the sofa, eating fruit and watching TV.

"Is there anything else you want to tell me in advance?" Qin Huai asked.

"No." Luo Jun stared at the TV series and didn't even bother to give Qin Huai a glance.

Qin Huai took a look and it seemed to be a new fantasy drama.

Luo Jun really loves this kind of thing.

"Then I'll... look at my memory." Qin Huai said.

"Look, can I stop you from looking or what?"

Ignoring Luo Jun's sarcasm, Qin Huai clicked on [A memory of Luo Jun].

Select Yes.

Memory loading——
.
"Boyan, today Master Jiang made your favorite noodles and I bought a few of each."

"Why have you been calling me that name lately?"

"After all, I didn't know your courtesy name was Boyan before. I think your courtesy name is more intimate. Why didn't you tell me before?"

"They all randomly took it when they returned to China. It's troublesome."

"It's not a problem. It sounds good."

As soon as Qin Huai entered his memory, he saw Liu Tao's smiling face.

Liu Tao at this time was obviously a few years older than when she was still singing opera. With her hair tied up, she looked like a woman. The color of her cheongsam was also darker, and she looked much more stable.

Liu Tao was holding a food box in her hand, with a jade bracelet on her wrist, gemstones on her earrings, a pearl necklace around her neck, and a gold hair ornament inlaid with gemstones. She looked much richer than when she piled all the jewelry from the troupe on her first date to the movies.

Qin Huai began to look around the house. The house was not very big, with two floors. The second floor had a bedroom, a study, a utility room and a bathroom, and the first floor was the living room and kitchen, with a yard outside.

The decoration is relatively simple, and it cannot be compared with the luxurious decoration of the Richard Hotel with wool carpets all over the place, but compared with its contemporaries, it can still be considered wealthy.

There wasn't much furniture in the living room, just an antique display stand, two cabinets, a table, two sofas, and the rest were just piles of newspapers.

The cabinets in the living room are full of novels. I guess there is no room for them in the study upstairs.

Luo Jun was wearing a shirt and sitting on the sofa reading a newspaper. This look was exactly the same as the look of Luo Jun sitting on the sofa watching TV before Qin Huai entered his memory. It was a perfect replica.

Liu Tao put the food box on the table, went to the kitchen to get a plate, arranged the plates in order, opened the food box and put the noodles and fruits inside into the plates one by one.

After Liu Tao finished eating, Luo Jun also finished reading the novel serial in the newspaper. He put down the newspaper and looked up at the noodles on the plate.

There are many kinds of noodles.

Apples, oranges, pears, apricots, hawthorns, persimmons, peaches, nectarines, dates, chestnuts, white radishes, grapefruits, carrots, pumpkins, walnuts, and peanuts.

The appearances vary. The apple is the most similar, while the grapefruit is the worst. At first glance, they look colorful and have all the right appearances, which is quite deceptive.

Yuzi was the biggest and the one that looked the least like it. Luo Jun took one look at Yuzi and said, "What is this?"

"Master Jiang just learned how to make pomelo." Liu Tao said.

"It's not like I haven't seen unpeeled grapefruits before. They don't look like this at all. If he doesn't know how to make it, he shouldn't do it randomly. It's a waste of flour." Luo Jun complained unceremoniously, picking up the apple-like fruit, "Just make an apple."

"Master Jiang also wants to bring forth something new." Liu Tao collected the newspaper that Luo Jun had just read and folded it up. "We should be considerate of each other. We are hiding from the war, and so is Master Jiang."

"We are from Shanghai, and Master Jiang is from Beijing. It is fate that we met each other thousands of miles apart."

"I'm not hiding from the war. There's no point in hiding from that kind of thing." Luo Jun muttered softly, picking up another newspaper from his hand, "Tao'er, have you heard about your parents?"

Liu Tao smiled bitterly and shook her head.

"I was sold to a theatre troupe when I was five years old. Over the years, people and things have changed. Boyan, do you dislike this place? If you really don't like it, let's go back to Shanghai. I know you can't get used to the food and accommodation here, and you can't buy the newspapers and books you like."

"Every time, we ask Uncle Liang to deliver a month's supply at a time. Now there is chaos and it is dangerous for Uncle Liang to deliver newspapers. I heard that the concessions in Shanghai are very safe now. Why don't we..."

"It's the same everywhere." Luo Jun looked at the newspaper. "If you can't get any information, you'll have to pay more. That's what you said, right? We can meet Master Jiang here even though we're thousands of miles apart. Your parents are from here. Where can they run to? Your family has no money. You can't afford train or boat tickets. How far can you walk?"

"What I have is time. If I can't find it in one year, I'll look for it in two years. If I can't find it in two years, I'll look for it in three years. I really don't like the food here, but the food from Wu's Restaurant and Chef Jiang's is okay and edible."

"Don't book a table at Wu's Restaurant tonight. I remember Chef Jiang made some tofu last time..."

"Pot-fried tofu." Liu Tao reminded.

"That's it. I want to eat the leftovers tonight. You can cook according to your taste."

"If I order food from Chef Jiang, do I need to buy the ingredients and bring them with me? I think I have to bring my own seasonings too. Forget it, I'll go over there with you tonight."

"He is so poor, doesn't he even have money to buy soy sauce?"

Liu Tao smiled and said, "After all, Master Jiang and I are the same. We spent all our money on finding people. It's very expensive to find out about relatives these days."

Luo Jun said he didn't understand, shook his head and continued reading the novel.
