“System will solely enhance the restaurant, and different components is not going to be included,” answered the system.

Magazine stroked his chin together with his proper hand as he used to, took a have a look at the dilapidated stairs and the darkish second flooring, and remembered the straw-covered mattress he had simply left. That is no place for my child woman to sleep. I shall change it by tonight, he thought.

Moreover, I didn’t really feel an excessive amount of malice from the system. The mentioned punishment should be simply one thing to make me research arduous and turn into the God of Cookery sooner.

If that’s the case… Magazine got here up with an concept, and casually mentioned in his thoughts, “System, I believe you’ve bought it flawed. I’ve offered this entire constructing for the restaurant, so it’s important to enhance the entire thing. I can’t settle for a restaurant underneath such a shabby home. Moreover, if the second flooring stayed unrepaired, sometime a brick may fall down and kill a buyer, which might be very dangerous, and if he was not killed by it, that will be even worse—I would get killed by the man who can’t be killed by a brick. If that occurred, how might I be taught to cook dinner and turn into the God of Cookery? It’s your alternative.”

The system turned silent, as if misplaced in thought. After some time, it spoke once more, “As a result of the home may be very harmful, after analyzing, system has determined to reconstruct the entire constructing after which enhance it. Please select the ornament fashion.”

Magazine smiled secretly. As I’ve anticipated, this stuff may be reasoned with. Being led round by the nostril could be so not enjoyable. Nonetheless, he appeared fairly calm on the skin.

The fashion of the restaurant had been determined, and he selected a mode fairly like his earlier home for the second flooring—inconspicuous but grand and comfy. There have been three rooms, one bathroom, and one toilet, all on the second flooring. Amy’s room’s foremost colour was pink. So, the whole lot was determined.

“The reconstruction and ornament will value 30 seconds. Please go away this home. The countdown begins now from 60 seconds …” mentioned the system.

Simply 30 seconds?! Magazine froze for an prompt, however then he heard the countdown, so he dragged himself in direction of the door in a rush. It took him a lot effort to step throughout the edge, after which he rotated and closed the door. It was already darkish.

“Father, are you right here to fulfill me?” Amy’s cute little voice sounded behind his again.

Magazine rotated. Amy was trying up at him, one brown pancake in every hand—too huge in her little fingers, her lengthy eyelashes fluttering, happiness and pleasure throughout her little face. Father has by no means come out to fulfill me earlier than, however at this time it appears he has come downstairs to fulfill me, Amy thought fortunately.

“Sure, Amy, and Father will present you a magic trick.” Magazine smiled as he went down, took Amy in his arms, and hugged her gently.

“A magic trick?” Amy appeared up at Magazine, a bit confused, however quickly her eyes brightened. “Is it magic? Are you able to conjure up numerous good meals, Father?”

“Sure. Father will conjure up an enormous lovely home for you and a fairly restaurant and can cook dinner numerous good issues for you on daily basis,” Magazine answered in a tender voice. A bit of chowhound all proper, Magazine thought.

“Actually?” Amy appeared unconvinced, her mouth barely open in shock.

Magazine nodded, smiling. “Shut your eyes and rely down from 30.”

“30, 29 …” Amy closed her eyes obediently, counting down the quantity.

Magazine checked out Amy gently, listening to her cute little voice. The bottom began shaking barely, and he might hear the sound of issues hitting the bottom at times, however he didn’t look again as soon as.

The rely of 30 was over in a short time.

Amy opened her eyes, expectation throughout her little face.

“Now, let’s take a look at our new residence.” Magazine took the 2 pancakes from Amy, took her little hand, bought up, and rotated with some expectation to have a look at their new home.

A heat gentle spilled from the door and landed proper on the 2 very completely different figures—one huge and one small.

“Wow…” Amy’s mouth was large open. She gaped on the immediately modified home that appeared like a resplendent palace within the lamplight for a very long time earlier than she turned to have a look at her father and cried out fortunately, “Father, is that this actually out of your magic? The home is so lovely, like a crystal palace! And look, the rocks are shining! Father, you’re wonderful!”

“This might be our home any more, and it’s additionally a restaurant.” Magazine smiled fortunately. Nothing feels higher than being admired by your personal daughter.

It was nonetheless a two-story home, nevertheless it had modified from a ramshackle log cabin to a European-style villa. Going through the sq. was a floor-to-ceiling window, and the restaurant within the gentle of the European crystal chandelier might be seen from exterior, cozy and trendy.

It appeared the shaking earlier than had triggered a bit tumult, so Magazine took Amy’s hand and went contained in the door. “Let’s go residence. Father will let you know extra later.”

“Okay. Father is the very best!” Amy rubbed her head in opposition to Magazine’s hand, leaping into the doorway fortunately.

Magazine turned off the sunshine on his method in. Within the meantime, a dwarf with a thick beard stumbled out from the following door. Wanting round together with his drunken face, he shouted, “Silly trolls come dancing right here once more! Rattling it, I’m making an attempt to get some sleep right here…” Then he went again and slammed the door closed.

“Father… is that this actually our home?” Amy stopped on the door, appeared on the grand restaurant, after which raised her head to have a look at Magazine, nonetheless not believing her eyes.

She had by no means seen a home so lovely—the ground was flat and easy, the chandelier was lovely and crystal-like, and the aligned tables and chairs have been brand-new, with beautiful tableware bins on the desk. Deeper inside was a protracted counter that was increased than her, and behind it was a room, however she couldn’t see what was inside.

“Certain.” Magazine nodded, smiling. Then, waving his hand, he mentioned, “That is our new residence. The primary flooring can be utilized as a restaurant, and the second flooring is the place we’ll reside…”

“Nice!” Earlier than Magazine might end his phrases, Amy had already run away. She prolonged her arms and ran across the restaurant, after which she discovered a desk on the very inside and took a seat there. “Father, let’s have the pancakes right here. Amy is hungry,” she mentioned, waving at Magazine.

“Okay.” Magazine smiled. Certain sufficient, meals was a very powerful.

“The mission ‘personal a restaurant’ is full. For the reason that host has required the reconstruction of the components apart from the restaurant, the reward this time is cancelled out. System has issued a brand new mission: be taught the primary dish—Yangzhou fried rice ¹ . The time restrict is three days. When the host is prepared, enter the take a look at subject for the God of Cookery. The reward this time is: power +0.5, and the punishment is: power -0.5.” The system’s voice sounded once more.

Magazine stopped there instantly. A door immediately appeared in his thoughts with 4 golden phrases on it: Yangzhou fried rice. This should be the so-called take a look at subject for the God of Cookery.

To make sure, Magazine cared extra in regards to the reward it had talked about. Essentially the most pressing matter for him was restoration as a result of he couldn’t maintain the kitchen knife nonetheless on this situation, to say nothing of cooking. He didn’t assume the system would prepare a reward to assist him get well this shortly, so he was a bit excited impulsively.

I don’t know what this ‘power +0.5’ means to me, however I don’t assume the system would cheat me. How arduous might it’s to make the Yangzhou fried rice?

When he was in Yangzhou, he had tried the genuine Yangzhou fried rice a number of occasions in a number of completely different eating places, however his feedback then have been too imply. To be frank, nonetheless, the style was superb, however at the moment, he was so obsessive about criticism that he by some means felt compelled to try this. It was mentioned that one previous and well-known restaurant was closed for a while after his commentary, however these issues have been all the time taking place, so he didn’t pay a lot consideration to it again then.

“Father?” Amy appeared on the absent-minded Magazine, a bit confused.

“Coming!” Magazine shortly suppressed his impulse to open that door in his thoughts, and sat reverse Amy. He handed a pancake to her. “Let’s have a style of Amy’s favourite pancake,” he mentioned, smiling.

Magazine took an in depth have a look at the pancake—it was in regards to the dimension of a grown man’s hand and one centimeter in thickness. It should have been produced from flour combined with corn, mung bean, potato… and lots of different coarse grains, after which was put right into a wooden oven to bake. It felt like a tough tile in his hand.

“Okay.” Amy took the pancake with two fingers, opened her little mouth, and took a chew. The pancake cracked, and Amy chewed fortunately like a bit hamster, trying glad and really cute.

It tastes that good? Magazine puzzled. Nonetheless, Amy eat gave him such a superb urge for food that he couldn’t assist however deliver the pancake to his mouth and provides it a tough chew. He chewed a number of occasions and bought astounded.

This should be baked tile! Magazine thought. Did the pancake crack, or did my enamel? It was actually a torture to my mouth and choked my throat when making an attempt to swallow. This factor can be utilized as a deadly weapon! Lots of have been offered in sooner or later? Are you kidding me? This world’s meals tradition is so primitive! Rattling, I choked! Magazine felt horrible. He dropped the pancake on the desk and ran to the sink within the kitchen with fingers round his throat.
