Trigger the system opportunity mission "Trial of the Congee King" with a clear objective and generous rewards (five-star congee skills in sight)!

We've mastered the basic method for making "Boat Congee," adding one more new product to our menu and further enriching our breakfast options!

Everything is moving towards becoming richer and more powerful!

Looking at the steaming porridge in front of him and his energetic colleagues (including Su Hang, who had temporarily joined), Wang Sheng felt a surge of pride.

Breakfast includes porridge, late-night snacks include noodles and pancakes, and there are constantly unlocking system skills and a continuous stream of popularity —

Sheng Kee's territory is expanding and consolidating at an astonishing pace.

I'll have to drive more often in the mornings and evenings...

The teaching and trial productions done in the early morning were posted on the forum.

The entire team at Window 07 is filled with anticipation for the upcoming new product, "Boat Congee".

Based on the teachings from Su Hang, Wang Sheng quickly developed a standardized operating procedure for making porridge and adjusted the morning preparation plan.

Thanks to the "Ingredient Eye" and "Preservation in a Moment" refrigerators, selecting and processing various porridge ingredients has become efficient and precise.

After successfully completing their mission in Suzhou and Hangzhou (mainly because they were tired), they went back to the hotel to catch up on sleep and arranged to come back at noon to "inspect the results".

Wang Sheng then led Zhao Gang, Lin Xiaowen, and others into an even busier but well-organized preparation for breakfast.

The congee base needs to be cooked in advance. Wang Sheng taught Zhao Gang, who arrived first, the improved rice-to-water ratio and cooking process, and he was responsible for taking care of the large clay pot. Wang Sheng personally oversaw the marinating and pre-treatment of other ingredients such as fresh shrimp, fish slices, shredded pork belly, and squid tentacles to ensure that they were not fishy, ​​were flavorful, and maintained their optimal tenderness.

The fried dough sticks are ready-made; chop them up and set aside. Egg crepe strips, peanuts, chopped green onions, cilantro, and other condiments are also prepared.

At six o'clock in the morning, the sky was just beginning to lighten.

The long queue outside window number 07 remained unchanged.

After yesterday's live broadcast from Suzhou and Hangzhou sparked a second wave of excitement, there seemed to be more students queuing up today than usual, and some young people who looked like working professionals could even be seen looking around in the queue.

As the window opened, the complex aromas of food wafted out as usual. But today, there seemed to be an added, more mellow, lingering, and enticing fragrance of porridge, subtly mingling with the strong aromas of noodles, oil, and spiciness, like a gentle stream quietly permeating everyone's sense of smell.

"Huh? It smells like porridge?"

"Yes, it smells so good, like a very thick seafood porridge?"

"Is Sheng Kee going to start making congee?"

The people in line began to whisper among themselves and look around curiously.

Soon, they saw a brand new small blackboard, carefully drawn with colored chalk, standing next to the window:

【Today's Special New Heartwarming Product: Cantonese Boat Congee】

Generous ingredients, freshly cooked to order, incredibly fresh and delicious.

[Includes: fresh shrimp, fish slices, pork belly, squid, fried dough sticks, peanuts, egg crepe, cilantro, etc.]

Price: 15 yuan/bowl

[Limited trial sale, available during breakfast hours, while supplies last]

15 yuan! That's a high price for a cafeteria breakfast. But looking at the densely packed, mouthwatering ingredient list, and considering Shengji's consistent reputation and quality, the students in line hesitated only slightly before being tempted by the increasingly rich aroma of the porridge.

"Boss! A bowl of boat congee, please! I'll eat here!"

"I'd also like a bowl of boat congee with a fried dough stick!"

"The usual xiaolongbao, and I'd also like a bowl of congee to try!"

The sound of orders being placed rang out immediately, with many people trying out boat congee.

Wang Sheng was in high spirits, and his enhanced physical strength made him more adept at handling the busy schedule. He was in charge of the most crucial "raw rolling" process.

A small stove and several individual serving clay pots (specially purchased) are placed in front of me. A base of thick, fragrant white porridge, already cooked to a smooth consistency, is ladled into the pot and placed on the fire. Various marinated seafood and meat ingredients are quickly added according to the customer's request.

Bring the water to a boil over high heat, then gently stir with a long spoon to instantly coat the tender ingredients with the scalding porridge.

The shrimp quickly curled and turned red, the fish slices turned white and set, the pork belly strips absorbed the sauce, and the squid tentacles curled slightly.

The whole process is extremely fast, taking only ten or twenty seconds, which maximizes the preservation of the ingredients' freshness and tenderness.

Remove from heat, sprinkle in the fried dough sticks, peanuts, and shredded egg crepes, and finally garnish with chopped green onions and cilantro, and drizzle with a few drops of sesame oil or pepper (optional).

A steaming bowl of boat congee, overflowing with ingredients and emitting a wonderful aroma, is now ready!

"Your boat congee, be careful, it's hot!"

When Lin Xiaowen served the first bowl of porridge to a boy, many eyes turned to her.

The congee is thick and smooth, with a pearly sheen. It's garnished with pink shrimp, white fish, brown belly, yellow egg crepe, green scallions and cilantro, and crispy fried dough sticks and peanuts—a vibrant and visually appealing dish!

The boy couldn't wait to scoop up a spoonful, blow on it, and put it in his mouth.

Smooth and creamy! The congee base is cooked to perfection, melting in your mouth with a pure rice aroma.

Delicious! The combined umami flavors of seafood and pork belly are fully released by the boiling congee, blending into every grain of rice.

Abundant! The shrimp's springiness, the fish's tenderness, the tripe's chewiness, the squid's crispness, the fried dough sticks and peanuts' crunchiness, the egg skin's softness—

A variety of textures converge on the tip of the tongue, creating distinct layers and constant surprises!

Soothing! The scalding heat slid down my esophagus into my stomach, instantly dispelling the chill of the autumn morning. My whole body felt warm and comfortable, extremely pleasant!

"Mmm—!" The boy's eyes widened suddenly, then narrowed again, a look of pure enjoyment on his face. He didn't even bother to speak, taking several more sips before letting out a long sigh. He gave a thumbs-up towards the window and mumbled, "Boss! This porridge—it's amazing! So delicious it'll make your eyebrows fall off! So much stuff! Fifteen dollars? Worth it!"

That sound was like a starting gun!

The students who were watching immediately lost their doubts!

"Boss! One bowl of boat congee!"

"I'll have two bowls! To go!"

"Mixing rice noodles with congee! A perfect combination!"

"Give me a bowl to try too!"

The clamor for porridge immediately surged! A small queue formed in front of the window specifically for porridge.

Wang Sheng worked tirelessly, turning on the small clay pot one after another with fluid and swift movements. Thanks to his enhanced physical strength and the system's assistance, his control over the heat and the timing of adding ingredients became increasingly precise, ensuring that the quality of every bowl of porridge remained consistently high.

[Ding! Received a genuinely positive review (boat congee)!]

[Ding! Received a genuinely positive review (boat congee)!]

[Trial of the Congee King] Progress: Current cumulative sales: 18/200

The system notification sounds began to ring out rhythmically, each sound representing solid progress in the task and customer approval.

Congee is a hit!

Its popularity even exceeded Wang Sheng's own expectations. It seems that after providing enough options with strong flavor stimulation, a bowl of warm, delicious, hearty, and comforting porridge has just hit another soft spot in the students' breakfast needs.

Many girls, in particular, might not be able to finish a basket of xiaolongbao and mixed rice noodles, but a bowl of delicious and flavorful boat congee with half a fried dough stick or a small mochi is the perfect combination.

Su Weiwei also took a break from her busy schedule to serve herself a small bowl of porridge. She leaned against a corner and sipped it, her face full of pride at the addition of a new brand to her family business (she had already half-accepted it in her heart). She secretly took a picture of the porridge and sent it to her brother Su Hang, who was catching up on sleep.
