Looking at Li Zhengyi and his group, Wang Aiguo was momentarily at a loss for words.

In any other shop, a group of people coming up to cause trouble and leave bad reviews would indeed be scary, but Wang Aiguo isn't. He'd be scared if you made a normal purchase and didn't leave a bad review. If you did leave a bad review, Wang Aiguo wouldn't be afraid at all. Just these ten or so people, at an average of fifteen yuan per person, that's nearly two hundred yuan. With a 100-fold cashback on a bad review, that's twenty thousand yuan! That twenty thousand yuan is enough for Wang Aiguo to live on for two months after deducting rent.

Thinking of this, Wang Aiguo sighed helplessly.

"Alright, alright, you can order then!"

"We're not ordering anything, just come and scan the QR code. We bought a group-buying coupon, otherwise how could we give you a bad review!"

The one speaking is Li Zhengyi.

Hearing this, Wang Aiguo rolled his eyes. He had originally thought that if Li Zhengyi ordered on the spot, Wang Aiguo would have to come up and ask "whether you thought it was delicious" after eating. Now that he ordered online, he could just leave a bad review, which would make things much simpler.

Since the other party had already said that, Wang Aiguo didn't waste any words and took out his phone to scan the QR codes. Some were orders placed through Meituan, and some through Douyin; Wang Aiguo had activated accounts on all the online platforms at the time. However, buying group-buying vouchers online wasn't much cheaper than ordering in person, only about a yuan or two apart.

This group of people probably wanted to leave more negative reviews, so each of them bought two or three coupons. This brought their average spending per person to thirty yuan.

Seeing this, Wang Aiguo was even more dumbfounded. "Thank you for sending me money! With all these negative reviews, I can earn at least 50,000 yuan."

After placing the order, Wang Aiguo returned to the kitchen. He had already completed over thirty orders that morning, so he didn't plan to list them on any food delivery platforms. He felt he had earned enough for the day; any more would attract attention, since his earnings came from the system.

No sooner had Wang Aiguo returned to the kitchen than Li Zhengyi and his group began whispering among themselves.

"Brother Li, we're here. He shouldn't dare do that now that we're facing him, right?"

"I doubt he'd be that bold. We're sitting right here, and I don't believe he'd dare put a whole raw potato in there."

"Exactly! Isn't he afraid we'll beat him up?"

"But to be honest... even if he actually did that, we wouldn't dare beat him up. This guy is big and burly, he looks much stronger than us!"

As they were talking, one of the programmers glanced at Wang Aiguo.

Wang Aiguo weighs a hefty 190 pounds and is also quite tall, standing at 1.85 meters, so he does look rather robust. However, it is precisely because of this physique that Wang Aiguo looks very much like a chef.

Upon entering the kitchen, Wang Aiguo glanced at the whispering programmers, then said nothing more. Almost everyone had ordered grilled sausages, scallion pancakes, and cold noodles; such large quantities were easy to prepare.

Soon, Wang Aiguo took the pancake wrappers out of the refrigerator and heated them in the microwave. After heating, he spread the pancake wrappers out on the stove.

At this moment, the programmers stood up one by one, craning their necks, eager to see what Wang Aiguo would do. The next moment, they saw Wang Aiguo directly take the washed potatoes from the sink and stuff them one by one into the dough of the scallion pancake, then wrap it up.

"Your scallion pancakes are ready. Since we don't have any servers, please help yourselves!"

After saying that, Wang Aiguo placed the scallion pancakes on a plate and put them on the serving table.

Upon seeing this, all the programmers present fell silent.

After a while, one of the programmers started cursing: "Are you out of your mind? We're all right here, and you're just going to make your potato pancakes like this?"

Upon hearing this, Wang Aiguo frowned, then took out his phone, opened a picture of a scallion pancake, and said to the group through the glass, "Didn't you see the picture above? Did you see it? Potato scallion pancake, scallion pancake and potatoes, no sauce, just the picture exactly as it is. This is what you ordered, so of course I'm giving you this!"

After Wang Aiguo finished speaking, Li Zhengyi and the others were speechless. They thought that since Wang Aiguo had come to cause trouble, he would at least treat them well, but there was no difference. In fact, the other party even produced irrefutable evidence—the photo on the platform showed a whole potato with a scallion pancake underneath.

"Take it, take it now. I'm making you liangpi (cold skin noodles) now. By the way, do you need anything extra added to your liangpi?"

Upon hearing this, Li Zhengyi was the first to jump up, then shouted loudly, "Don't add anything! Just make it like a normal cold noodle dish, don't add anything extra! We don't have much time at noon, we need to eat something before we go back!"

"Oh... okay then!"

Wang Aiguo nodded. Thinking about it, it made sense. After all, he was a programmer, and living nearby; he definitely needed to eat something before leaving, otherwise he wouldn't be able to handle the afternoon. Since the other party hadn't made any additional requests, Wang Aiguo didn't think it appropriate to add excessive amounts of vinegar, chili, or sugar.

Soon enough, Wang Aiguo made more than a dozen servings of regular liangpi (cold skin noodles).

While Wang Aiguo was making liangpi (cold skin noodles), the grilled sausages were already ready.

"Ding... Your food is ready! Please help yourselves!"

Nobody would eat those dozen or so scallion pancakes; everyone knows they're filled with raw potatoes, so who would eat them? They were simply thrown away. But they still needed to eat, so nobody threw away the cold noodles and grilled sausages; they brought them over one by one.

Whether they were really hungry from waiting for so long or not, this group of people ate like wolves, finishing all the cold noodles and grilled sausages in less than five minutes.

After finishing his meal, Li Zhengyi threw his chopsticks on the table, then glared at Wang Aiguo and said with a displeased expression, "Boss, you clearly know how to cook properly. Isn't this method quite delicious? Why did you add half a pound of chili powder to my food yesterday?"

"Excuse me, are you out of your mind? Didn't you ask for extra spice? Didn't I add enough?"

Wang Aiguo straightened his back and finished speaking with righteous indignation. Li Zhengyi immediately covered his forehead, feeling a sharp pain in it.

"Boss, I really don't want to talk to you anymore. Talking to you gives me a headache, like my brain is about to grow back. What kind of kind person would interpret 'add more spice' as adding half a pound of chili powder? Also, this potato pancake is pure potato, pure hand-pulled pancake, not even boiled or stir-fried. Boss, are you deliberately messing with me?"

"How could that be? Our shop prioritizes customer satisfaction and we are committed to meeting your needs. Furthermore, we operate with integrity; what you receive is exactly what the pictures show, without any falsification!"

As he spoke, Wang Aiguo made an OK sign.

Seeing Wang Aiguo's smug look, Li Zhengyi became even angrier.

Just then, a young man next to him suddenly said, "Okay, boss, how about this? I'll place another order, still cold noodles, but this time I'll ask for—two extra spoonfuls of chili!"
