Food: Randomly set up stalls, even the little guy is drooling.

Over the next two days, business in Lufeng boomed even more, with 200 servings every morning and 200 servings every afternoon after school, making the other vendors look at him with resentment.

Especially the stall next door that sells spicy chicken noodles; unable to compete, it simply moved to another location and stopped coming.

Upon hearing this news, Lu Feng was both amused and exasperated. He hadn't targeted anyone, but being mistaken for someone else was still a blow.

Nobody would do that. He sells 400 servings a day, while the other two combined can't even sell double digits at Yingcai Primary School!

With 400 servings of spicy chicken noodles sold steadily every day, the net daily income from selling spicy chicken noodles exceeded 600 yuan after deducting costs.

I saw on Douyin short videos before that everyone said selling spicy chicken noodles only makes a small profit. Wow, with the help of cutting-edge technology, selling spicy chicken noodles can earn more money than working a regular job.

With the 500 yuan system reward, his savings reached 2000 yuan again. Unfortunately, his grandmother's medical bills needed to be renewed soon, and he also needed to pay for the caregiver.

We absolutely have to get this system for 10,000 yuan.

[This week's task: Sell spicy chicken noodles (priced at 3 yuan) at Yingcai Primary School every morning from 7 to 8:00 AM, 100 servings on Saturday.]

"Wait a minute, system," Lu Feng said in anguish, "Do you know that elementary schools don't have weekends off?"

Lu Feng felt heartbroken for the flowers of the motherland. Even primary school students sleep in on weekends. Who's going to get up early in the morning to eat a bite of my noodles?

[Host feedback detected as reasonable. This system uses the 007 work schedule of feudal slave society, which is incompatible with the national conditions. Referring to the 996 "blessing" system, this week's tasks will be adjusted.]

[This week's task: 50 orders on Saturday. Note: Results will be tallied after Saturday's task is completed; Sunday is rest day.]

What a blessing from God! I just left a company that required 996 work schedules, and now I'm stuck with another 996 system.

Cattle and horses are cattle and horses no matter where they are, Lu Feng thought with a mixture of sorrow and relief. Fifty portions, though few, still felt somewhat troublesome to him.

If it were any other time, Lu Feng wouldn't have any problem. But at the school gate at 7 a.m. on a weekend, it's like eating an ice pop in winter—completely cold. Who doesn't sleep in on the weekend and is trying to force me to eat a bowl of noodles?

Ahem, a message came from the QQ group.

"Shang Qianqian: I didn't get to eat it today, and I won't be able to eat it for the next two days. I'm going to send some spicy chicken noodles since I can't get them."

Just like a pillow delivered to someone who's sleepy, Lu Feng quickly replied.

"Lufeng: Saturday morning from 7 am to 8 am, same location, limited to 50 servings, first come first served."

"My favorite is the Beans: Boss, I want to call you a model worker! I really want to eat them, but I want to sleep in even more."

"Kid A: I live nearby, and I can't get up either, but I can ask my grandma to buy it for me."

"Shang Qianqian: For the sake of the spicy chicken noodles! Can I come back at 8 o'clock?"

Kid B: Boss, why do you have to schedule it between 7 and 8 o'clock... Can't we sleep in a little longer on the weekend? Do you have a system that makes you work without doing tasks?

Lu Feng thought to himself, "That was a very accurate guess!"

At 6:55 a.m. on Saturday, Lu Feng arrived at Yingcai Primary School early.

The school gate is much quieter on weekends, with only a few breakfast stalls still there.

Lu Feng carried the insulated box down; if he hadn't argued with the system, he probably wouldn't have been able to complete the last day's task at all.

However, these 50 tasks are also extremely challenging.

"Boss, I'm here!" A short while later, several young men and women from the group actually came over to buy spicy chicken noodles.

"Hey boss, you have no idea, my mom was shocked today." A little girl, mimicking her parents' tone while eating, exclaimed, "Has the sun risen in the west? You actually went out to eat breakfast by yourself?"

There was also a little boy who lived nearby, and he actually asked his grandma to come and buy it.

The old man frowned as soon as he stood in front of Lu Feng. "Is this where you sell spicy chicken noodles? This is so unhygienic."

"Grandma, this is hygienic, look at mine." The little girl placed her noodles in front of the grandma. "Don't underestimate us just because we're small. Look at these noodles, they're definitely different from the others."

"Isn't this just junk food? How hygienic can it be?" With her more than fifty years of experience, Grandma examined the noodles carefully. At first glance, they did look appetizing. But thinking of her grandson crying and begging for some, she still took out her money. "Give me one."

However, as of 7:58, there were still thirteen portions left in the insulated box, three portions short of completing the system task.

Lu Feng stared at the screen and asked, "System, what happens if I fail to complete the mission?"

Only by completing the current task can you unlock the next stage.

"Holy crap." Lu Feng was completely exasperated. This system was just messing with his mentality. If he couldn't complete the task and didn't get the 10,000 yuan this week, wouldn't that mean he'd miss out on next week's bonus? It hurt!

He cursed the system in his heart. It made him start all over again after failing for just one day. Did it think he was playing a Souls-like game? He was lucky that he had successfully completed the first five days.

All rules in this system are designed to incentivize the host's growth.

"..." Finally, it was Lu Feng's turn to be shocked. He even said it was to motivate me to grow. Do you think it's easy for me to earn a little money? This is practically pushing me to my death.

"Boss!"

A familiar voice came from behind. Lu Feng turned around and saw Zhang Zixuan. This kid could actually get up so early?

Lu Feng asked curiously, "Don't you live nearby?"

"Don't ask, it's just that I'm addicted to turkey noodles." Zhang Zixuan peeked into the insulated box. "I really don't understand why you're selling so early on weekends."

Lu Feng was initially delighted, but then became disheartened, as the system did not allow forced buying and selling.

And just like that, there were still sales early on a weekend morning. The uncles and brothers next to them were already stunned, saying that they didn't want to be shocked anymore, or their bones would fall apart.

"Ugh, I feel terrible if I don't eat for a day! I have to support you!"

Sending just one person won't solve the problem; they won't force anyone to complete the task. Besides, the system has to agree first.

"Give me four servings!" Zhang Zixuan tossed twelve yuan into the small cash box, then glanced at it disdainfully. "Boss Lu, no offense, but what era are we living in? You should have a QR code for payment now."

[Weekly task, completed on day 6 (51/50)]

"Thank you so much!" Lu Feng excitedly shook Zhang Zixuan's hand, but then asked, "Can we finish four servings?"

"Just buying a few bowls of noodles, and you've given me goosebumps." Zhang Zixuan pulled his hand back. "My mom always says I like junk food. I'm taking this back for my parents to try. She's taking me to school the day after tomorrow. If she doesn't come to eat it soon, I'll call her 'Grandma'!"

He's quite the temperamental kid, but I like him. After a while, Lu Feng happily sold the remaining portions and went home.

Weekly task completed.

[Rewards: 1 RMB cash and 1 mystery recipe gift boxes.]
