Chapter 1: Parents travel and take over the noodle restaurant
"Lin Lan, when you saw this text message, your mother and I had already boarded the plane to the Maldives, don't think about us, the noodle restaurant will be handed over to you."
At nine o'clock in the morning, Lin Lan, who had just woken up, took out his mobile phone from under the pillow, wondering why his parents didn't call him to get up today, but he saw a text message from his father Lin Feng.
The air fell silent all at once.
Lin Lan rubbed his eyes, and finally determined that this was a text message from his father Lin Feng, not a fake text message, but ......
"Dad, where did they get the money?"
The Lin family is an ordinary family, operating a noodle restaurant to make a living, and the money they earn every year is not much left after deducting living expenses, and life is quite tight.
"Could it be that I am the hidden rich second generation?"
Lin Lan suddenly thought of this possibility, although he had always hoped to be able to see his father Jackie Chan, but today, this huge sense of happiness fell down, which instantly made him stunned.
"By the way, Lin Lan, we just happened to win the lottery to have the money for travel, don't think too much......"
Lin Lan, who was lying on the bed, had already begun to fantasize about the life of reaching out for clothes and opening his mouth for food, but he was almost broken by another text message!
"I'm sorry!!"
After reading the new text message, Lin Lan immediately covered his face and lay on the bed in despair. He felt that he was really daydreaming!!
"Goo, goo......"
A voice rang out at an inopportune time.
"I'm so hungry, go downstairs and cook a bowl of noodles to eat."
Lin Lan rubbed his stomach, turned over and got out of bed, went to the bathroom and solved various problems very quickly, then left the house and went downstairs to the noodle restaurant.
Qingfeng Noodle Restaurant has been operating on Hongsi Street for decades, starting with Lin Lan's grandfather and now Lin Lan is about to take over the noodle restaurant, which has gone through three generations.
The main hand-made noodles are the most popular.
But in recent years, the city center has been moving to the new port area.
The old town is becoming less and less popular, and the business of the noodle restaurants is declining.
In order to save money, Lin Feng dismissed the waiters and cleaners in the store, and now only Lin Feng's family remains.
On weekdays, Lin Feng and his wife are the couple, and if Lin Lan has nothing to do on weekends, he will also help.
But now, Lin Feng and his wife have traveled, and all the work of Qingfeng Noodle Restaurant will fall on Lin Lan.
"Hey, how can I open a noodle restaurant alone!"
Lin Lan opened the roller shutter door of the noodle restaurant, and when he walked in, he saw several bags of flour and bags of vegetables and meat placed next to the door.
Thinking about it in my heart, this should be what his parents prepared in advance, but his level seems to be a little unable to take on the big responsibility!
Although Lin Lan learned pasta from Lin Feng at the age of five, he is now in college, but he still only knows the first step of hand-rolling noodles.
【Ding! The kitchen god system is successfully bound and a newbie gift pack will be given.
Just when Lin Lan was wailing in pain, the system inadvertently appeared.
"System?" Lin Lan scratched his head, stretched out his hand and nodded, with an exclamation mark in front of him.
Shouldn't all systems be in fiction? He can have it too!
[Ding, congratulations to the host for successfully receiving the newbie package and obtaining the skill - hand-rolled dough making mastery]
The system's chime rings in my head again.
Lin Lan's shocked face instantly turned into a bitter gourd face.
He originally learned to make hand-rolled noodles since he was a child, and he was so familiar with the production of hand-rolled noodles that he couldn't be more familiar with it. As a result, the system actually gave such a useless skill.
"I can make hand-rolled noodles at the age of five, and I still need you to teach me?"
Shaking his head, Lin Lan moved the bags of vegetables and meat into the back kitchen and began to prepare today's ingredients.
The first job of a noodle restaurant is to start with noodles.
Washing his hands and tying an apron, Lin Lan brought the basin and began to mix the noodles.
Hand-rolled noodles are very particular about gluten, and the noodles should be made with cold white open and a drop of fine salt.
Although Lin Lan is a veteran, he is still very attentive when he meets.
After all, if the car rolls over, this dough will be wasted!
Due to the different seasons and weather, the ingredients used for the noodles must be adjusted as appropriate. For example, put less water on rainy days and more salt on cold days.
I don't know what the reason is, but when I met today, Lin Lan felt that it was very smooth, and every step was involuntarily made as if it was engraved in memory. The amount of water added and the strength of the dough can be called almost perfect.
The dough that comes out is unusually chewy, moderately soft and hard, and not sticky.
The next step is the noodles (resting noodles).
Lin Lan had just covered the dough with a damp cloth, and the system prompt sounded in his head again.
【Ding! The host correctly uses the specialization skill to start the beginner quest]
[Novice Task 1: [Maintain Reputation] There must be more than ten customers to praise it in one day, and the skill - Halogen Specialization will be rewarded after completion. Fail the mission and lose the opportunity to obtain the skill forever]
[Novice Task 2: [Short-term Profit] Within a week, one day the turnover reaches 5,000 yuan, and after completion, the skill will be rewarded - noodle cooking mastery. Fail the mission and lose the opportunity to obtain the skill forever]
[Novice Task 3: [Famous] Within two weeks, the number of strange customers in the noodle restaurant will reach 1,000, and the dish will be rewarded with cold cucumber after completion. Fail the quest and lose the chance to get the dish forever]
The sound ended, and these tasks formed words on the transparent light curtain in front of Lin Lan, so that he could view them at any time. And there is also a progress bar next to each task, which shows the completion status of the task.
Lin Lan looked at the transparent light curtain in front of him, a little speechless. He was actually very new to this system that suddenly appeared.
But the skills rewarded by the system seem to work!!
The steps he had just experienced made Lin Lan dare not underestimate the skills of several of the novice tasks.
"If you master these skills, you may be able to keep the noodle restaurant open."
However, when he thought of the popularity of the old city, Lin Lan was still a little worried. In the past, there were not many people when his parents were there, but now he runs a noodle restaurant by himself, but I am afraid that it will not be so easy.
Maintaining word of mouth, this task is not difficult, Qingfeng Noodle Restaurant often has some repeat customers, talk to those uncles and aunts, and it can be completed.
It is not difficult to make a profit in the short term, and how to make a noodle with a set meal can make up a turnover of 5,000 in one day.
As a college student, Lin Lan naturally knows how to be flexible.
But it's not easy to be famous. There are almost not many people in the whole old city, how can these thousand strange guests come to Qingfeng Noodle Restaurant to eat noodles?
On the premise that Lin Lan does not advertise and solicit customers. It's pretty good to have two dozen or so strangers in two weeks.
"Don't worry about it for now, let's get the first and second tasks done."
After making up his mind, Lin Lan began to prepare the noodles to be used today.
Qingfeng Noodle Restaurant specializes in two kinds of marinade, tomato, egg and fried sauce, and the boiled noodles are poured with thick marinade and mixed casually.
A bowl of fragrant hand-rolled noodles is done!!
