The first thing I did was to find out

Chapter 302: Manta Ray

Qin Huai was standing in the kitchen, stunned.

[Assistant Chen’s Wish] It is reasonable to complete this side quest. What’s the matter with the change in the reward for this quest?

He stopped giving me the dream halfway and went straight to giving me the recipe.

Can the rewards be changed?

You don’t want to show me your memory?

The author can’t write it?
Qin Huai realized that something seemed to have happened beyond his expectations. Without any hesitation, he directly opened the game panel, in front of Zang Liang.

Zang Liang is a good friend of Tan Weian and knows him well.

I was originally chatting with Qin Huai, but when I saw Qin Huai suddenly stop chatting and become empty-headed, I was completely stunned, even more stunned than Qin Huai just now.

Then he saw a scene that shocked him even more. Qin Huai not only pointed at the void, but also drew several times in the void.

Zang Liang:?!

Without any hesitation, Zang Liang took out his cell phone and sent a message to Tan Weian.

Zang Liang: What the hell! What the hell! What the hell! What the hell! What the hell! What the hell! What the hell!!
Zang Liang: Qin Huai really has an imaginary system. I thought you were exaggerating. I just saw him click on his own system panel.

Tan Weian replied very experiencedly: Then you have to pay attention, usually at this time he should have realized the truth and made progress, it's very scary, so you have to pay attention.

Zang Liang stared at Qin Huai with sharp eyes.

Not far away, Zang Mu and Tong Deyan were eating four-happiness dumplings in their bowls: …

"I know Xiao Qin is a little weird, but what's wrong with Zang Liang?" Zang Mu was helpless, "Why has he become as weird as Xiao Qin?"

"Don't worry about it." Tong Deyan said concisely. Both his expression and tone of voice were completely different from the violent temper he had just shown in the kitchen. He looked like a kind person, and one could even hear a hint of cheerfulness in his words. "Just eat the Four Happiness Glutinous Rice Balls."

"You're acting weird too." Zang Mu looked at Tong Deyan, "Why do I feel like you're in a good mood right now? Did Ling Guangzhao give you a raise?"

Ling Guangzhao is the owner of Babaozhai.

Hearing Zang Mu mention the boss, Tong Deyan's originally good mood suddenly turned bad, and he sneered: "Him?"

"Ah."

While Tong Deyan and Zang Mu were talking, Qin Huai had already turned to what he wanted to see.

In the illustration column.

Name: Chen Gong

Species: Manta Ray
Status: Awakened

Dream: 0/0
Recipe: None (to be gifted)

Gift: None
Chen Gong woke up!

I didn't get to eat the dishes from his own recipe, I didn't have in-depth communication to find out his true obsession, and I didn't try every possible means to trigger the remaining side quests.

He just woke up like that, when the birthday party was over.

Qin Huai knew that in theory, spirits had to wake up on their own, but this was the first time he encountered a spirit that woke up on its own.

It's so normal that it seems abnormal. Bro, if you wake up by yourself, it will make me seem useless. I am the male protagonist of the system novel.

Male protagonist, do you know? Male protagonist!

If you don't let the male protagonist do something, he will seem redundant.

Qin Huai was shocked in his heart, then he said calmly, "I'm going to the toilet."

slipped.

Zang Liang was left to continue sending messages to Tan Weian.

Zang Liang: He went to the toilet.

Tan Weian: Then he might need to realize something big.

The staff toilet of Yushanfang is on the second floor. Qin Huai slipped out from the side door of the kitchen and went straight to the second floor without passing through the banquet hall. He walked into the toilet, entered the single room, and closed the door. The series of actions were done in one go, as smooth as flowing water.

Qin Huai first needs to find out what a manta ray is.

There is a record in the "Classic of Mountains and Seas: Nanshan Yijing": Another 180 miles west is the Taiqi Mountain. Guanshui flows out of it and flows westward into the Liusha. It is a multi-patterned ray, shaped like a carp, with a fish body and bird wings, with gray patterns and a white head and red beak. It often travels in the West Sea and swims in the East Sea, flying at night. Its sound is like a phoenix, and its taste is sour and sweet. Eating it makes people crazy. When it is seen, the world will be prosperous.

The description of appearance is negligible. The general meaning is that the manta ray can cure epilepsy after being eaten. It is a lucky animal and there will be a good harvest in the world as soon as it appears.

It is in sharp contrast to the famous ferocious beast Bifang.

After checking the information of Wen Manta, Qin Huai opened the game panel to check the rewards he had obtained.

[Chen Gong's Affirmation]: The Affirmation of the all-purpose assistant Chen Gong. With this title, there is a high probability that the all-purpose assistant will complete everything that can be done for you within his ability. After all, not everyone can get the Affirmation of Wen Manta.

After checking everything that could be checked, Qin Huai stood in the toilet cubicle and thought calmly.

One of the characteristics of the manta ray is that it can cure the symptoms of madness after eating. Although Chen Gong probably doesn't have the hobby of eating himself on a daily basis, this may be the reason why his mental state was so stable in the middle world.

Compared with Qu Jing who committed suicide in his middle age, Chen Gong's mental state is extremely stable.

In a sense, the manta ray is blessed by nature. The ability to maintain a stable mental state is a very rare quality in itself.

This may be the benefit of the auspicious beast.

As for the "Chen Gong voluntarily gives you a recipe" in the mission reward, Qin Huai did not find it in any column in the game system. He might have to ask Chen Gong to get it himself, and ask him to find a recipe that he is willing to give to Qin Huai in his recovered memory. Maybe this recipe will appear in Chen Gong's recipe column.

Thinking of this, Qin Huai sent a WeChat message to Chen Gong without any hesitation.

Qin Huai: Are you there? Are you awake? I'll see you in the staff restroom on the second floor.

Chen Gong: Mr. Han has reserved the entire place today. All the boxes on the second floor are empty. Let’s meet in box 2.

Qin Huai suddenly realized that the universal assistant was a universal assistant who was thoughtful and considerate. He immediately came out of the toilet cubicle and went to box 888.

At the banquet, Chen Gong, who usually had no expression, stood up and told Han Guishan that he was going outside to make a phone call. After Han Guishan nodded, he left the banquet hall.

Before leaving, he did not forget to tell Xu Cheng: "Mr. Xu, the kitchen should be done cleaning up now. You can go to the kitchen to find Chef Qin Huai in about 15 minutes."

After saying this, Chen Gong did not forget to look at his watch and write down the time.

A minute later, the two met in box 888.

Qin Huai didn't know what to say for a moment. Chen Gong was the one he was least familiar with among all the awakened spirits. Yesterday he was still trying to get Chen Gong to talk, but today Chen Gong woke up on his own. Chen Gong smiled slightly: "Although I don't know how you, Master Qin, know that I am a spirit, I believe that you must have some abilities that are different from ordinary people, and yesterday's tricks were not aimless."

"If you want, you can choose to say whatever you want. I'll try my best to understand. But it's best to do it within 15 minutes. If it takes too long, I'm afraid Mr. Xu will get anxious waiting."

Qin Huai:?
Although Qin Huai didn't know why Xu Cheng became anxious after such a long time, he did have a lot to say, and he had said it many times and was very proficient in it.

Qin Huai quickly said everything that could and could not be said, and also pulled Chen Gong into the group of a loving family, telling Chen Gong that if there was anything he didn't understand, he could directly ask Chen Huihong, Luo Jun and Qu Jing in the group, as the three of them had plenty of time.

Qu Jing may be a little busier, but the other two really have plenty of time.

After listening to the explanation from the male protagonist of the system article, Chen Gong fell silent for a rare moment.

It can be seen that even a universal assistant would be somewhat at a loss when facing the male protagonist of the system text.

Chen Gong took a full minute to digest it, then slowly asked, "I should now dig out the most delicious white-case dim sum from my memory. Whether I can make it or not, as long as I say I want to give you this recipe, you can have a dish with some unknown buff, right?"

Qin Huai was moved on the spot. Is this the self-cultivation of an assistant? He was so shocked just now, but his first reaction now was to give him a recipe.

With this kind of work quality, if he could afford an annual salary of 700 million, he really wanted to poach people from Han Guishan.

"There's no rush for that." Qin Huai said, "I'm more interested in what your obsession is now."

Chen Gong understood: "You want to know how I failed the first time? Then I will briefly explain it."

Through Chen Gong's narration, Qin Huai heard the story of a miserable worker.

Like Chen Huihong, Chen Gong's first life was during the Republic of China period. His way of transcending the tribulation was very conservative. He transformed himself into a young and strong man and came to the Magic City. He first worked hard at the dock for a while to learn the rules of the world, and then began to learn various skills.

There are really not many people like this who are so normal, proactive, hardworking and willing to learn how to be a human being.

As a manta ray, Chen Gong is a lucky animal, but he has no ability. He first spent some time learning to write, then learned to use an abacus, entered a rice shop, and became an accountant with good eloquence and excellent work ability, and asked for a low salary.

Then he was promoted to manager with the boss's appreciation.

This sounds like a normal promotion process.

Thanks to Chen Gong's hard work and the blessing of the auspicious beast buff of the manta ray, the rice shop's business is booming, and it is very rare that it has not been troubled by various forces.

The boss' business grew bigger and bigger, spreading to the entire south. Later, his business was not even limited to the rice shop, but also started shipping business.

This business was undoubtedly a risky one in that era, but the boss succeeded smoothly and soon became a wealthy man.

Chen Gong was also forgotten by his boss.

When the boss was just a rice shop owner, he really needed an excellent manager like Chen Gong. When the boss became a wealthy man, Chen Gong was just an insignificant one among his many employees.

With the blessing of the auspicious manta ray, the boss transformed from a small rice shop owner into a shipping tycoon, but he did not know that this was all thanks to Chen Gong. He just thought that he was lucky. After becoming a shipping tycoon, he even began to dislike the original rice shop employees, thinking that their wages were too high, and began to lay off employees in a drastic manner.

Chen Gong was laid off just like that.

He did not give up and found another employer.

Soon, the second boss' business was going smoothly with the help of Manta Ray. Then he began to feel uncomfortable that Chen Gong and his old employees, who had made their fortune together with him, had seen Chen Gong at his lowest point in his desolation, so he laid off all the old employees without any reason.

The same goes for the 3rd boss.

Chen Gong knew that his ability might not be worthy of his boss after he got rich, but he didn't understand why every boss would abandon his former colleagues without hesitation after he got rich. He didn't need his boss to give him gold, silver and jewelry as a reward, he just wanted to have the treatment described in the book that he could share hardships and wealth.

Chen Gong failed in his attempt to overcome the tribulation due to his strong unwillingness.

His obsession is actually very simple, which is to find a good boss who can share weal and woe with him.

Chen Gong's second life also did not meet the good boss he wanted.

This is his third life.

As a spirit, Chen Gong's difficulty in overcoming the tribulation is not high, but it is not low either. After all, everyone who has worked knows that it is extremely difficult to find a good boss, but Chen Gong actually found such an outrageously good boss, Han Guishan.

It was reasonable for Chen Gong to succeed in overcoming the tribulation suddenly.

"So it was during the birthday party that you happened to feel that President Han was truly a rare good boss in the world, someone you could share weal and woe with. You were so moved that your obsession was resolved and you succeeded in overcoming the calamity." Qin Huai asked.

Chen Gong thought for a moment and said, "I'm not sure. I just thought of the time when President Han first founded Good Taste when I was eating the Four Happiness Rice Balls."

"At that time, I had just graduated from college and was working for President Han. The company didn't have much money in its early stages. In order to save money, President Wang cooked and delivered meals to the company for us employees every day. The meals President Wang cooked were particularly unpalatable. She was afraid that the dishes were not cooked well, so she always simmered them in the pot for a long time. When they were delivered to the company, they were so soft that they were shapeless."

"Under those circumstances, on my birthday in my first year at the company, Mr. Han gave me a computer as a present."

"He said the company doesn't have enough computers. I use computers quite often, and it's not good for me to stay in the company and work overtime just to use the computer. He's the boss, and he just gave me a computer on the pretext of my birthday. That way I don't have to compete with others for time off, and I can get off work on time. If I leave, I can take the computer with me, as a token of appreciation from the company."

"At that time, Mr. Han had to share the computer with others, although he didn't use it much. But at that moment I felt that I had really joined a good company and I wanted to work in this company for the rest of my life."

"When I was eating the Four Happiness Glutinous Rice Balls, I suddenly remembered this incident and felt warm and happy in my heart. Then the obsession was resolved and I woke up."

Qin Huai was shocked.

When he was looking at the game panel just now, he also took a look at the buff of Four Happiness Tangtuan.

[Eating this dish at a birthday party can make you feel happy and joyful from the bottom of your heart. After all, blessings filled with good intentions are one of the warmest loves in the world.]
So... Chen Gong was actually woken up by eating the four-happiness dumplings.

The buff is just right.

It’s because Qin Huai woke up, and among all the monsters, his way of waking up looked the most like what should appear in a system text.

Very... very normal spirit.

In the first life, his behavior was normal, the process was normal, the awakening mode was normal, and even his obsession seemed relatively normal.

He is simply a model student among the monsters.

Do you fish spirits have a training class for overcoming tribulations? It seems that you fish spirits are much more normal than bird spirits and plant spirits.

"Then..." Qin Huai didn't know what to ask.

Chen Gong glanced at his watch and said, "Master Qin, it's been 18 minutes. I suggest you go back to the kitchen first. Otherwise, if you spend too much time in the bathroom, it will be easy for people to misunderstand you."

"We can talk about the rest later. You also need to give me some time to go back and look through my memory to see if there is any really good recipe I can give you."

Qin Huai felt that what Chen Gong said made a lot of sense and nodded: "Okay."

"Would you like to come to the kitchen for some snacks later?"

"Yes, please save me a bowl of Four Happiness Tangyuan. Thank you."
