After the divorce, he took care of his child and sold fried rice; his ex-wife was filled with regret

"Dad, that fat uncle is so fierce!"

Tuantuan clung to Lin Fan's shoulder, watching the departing Land Rover with some fear.

He said our new home is a coffin shop, is that a bad omen?

Lin Fan withdrew his gaze, gently patted the back of his daughter's head, and said softly:

"Tuantuan, don't listen to his nonsense. He's just jealous that Daddy bought some nice stuff."

"Baby?" Tuantuan blinked her big eyes, looking at the dark and dirty shop in front of her, and then at the oppressive transformer box at the door. She couldn't understand how this could be a baby.

"Yes, my darling."

Lin Fan carried Tuantuan into the shop.

As the roller shutter was pulled down again, half of the noise outside was shut out.

Lin Fan stood in the center of the empty shop, turned on his phone's flashlight, and once again examined his first shop.

Although it felt good to confront Mr. Zhang, the real problems are indeed before us.

With 120 square meters of space and a 5-meter ceiling height, the spatial structure is indeed perfect.

But the current situation is: no water, no electricity, peeling paint, uneven ground, and a lingering musty smell.

The transformer box at the entrance is indeed a major flaw; without special methods, ordinary guests would never discover it.

At this moment, only Lin Fan and Tuan Tuan remained in the empty, dimly lit, and dusty shop.

"Daddy, it's so dark here, and there are so many spider webs," Tuantuan whispered, clinging tightly to Lin Fan's leg.

"Tuantuan, close your eyes, Daddy will show you a magic trick, okay?"

Lin Fan crouched down and said mysteriously, "Count to three, open your eyes, and this place will turn into the most beautiful castle."

"Really? Daddy can do magic tricks?" Tuantuan's eyes widened in surprise, then she obediently closed them and covered them with her hands. "I don't want to watch! Daddy, do it already!"

"System, are you there?" Lin Fan asked silently in his mind.

[Ding! System ready at any time. Congratulations, host, on securing your first physical store.]

"System, use the [God-Level Renovation Card]!"

[Ding! The God-tier Renovation Card has been activated!]

Please select a decorating style:

[A. Cyberpunk Style]

【B. Minimalist Industrial Style】

【C. A Peach Blossom Spring of Chinese Elegance】

Looking at these three options, Lin Fan hardly hesitated.

There is a huge transformer box at the entrance of this shop, which inherently has a "hidden" attribute.

If the interior is decorated in a cold, industrial style, it will feel oppressive.

Only the "Peach Blossom Spring" was initially extremely narrow, barely wide enough for one person to pass through. After walking several dozen steps, it suddenly opened up into a bright and spacious place.

This is practically tailor-made for this shop!

"Choose C, the elegant and refined Peach Blossom Spring!"

[Ding! Style confirmed! Renovation begins... Time taken: 0.01 seconds!]

As the system notification sound faded, a soft yet not dazzling golden light instantly enveloped the entire shop.

The mottled walls, exposed pipes, and uneven cement floors quickly melted and reformed in the golden light.

In just a moment.

All the musty and dusty smells were swept away, replaced by a faint sandalwood scent and a fresh bamboo leaf aroma.

"Alright, Tuantuan, open your eyes."

Lin Fan said with a smile.

Tuantuan loosened her little hands that were covering her eyes, her long eyelashes trembled, and then she suddenly opened them.

"Wow--!!"

The little girl's mouth formed an "O" shape; she was completely stunned.

The originally dark and narrow entrance has now been transformed into a secluded path paved with bluestone slabs.

The walls on both sides are no longer red bricks, but have been transformed into elegant ink wash landscape reliefs, with a faint sense of flowing light.

The tangled wires overhead are gone, replaced by rows of antique-style palace lanterns, emitting a warm yellow glow that makes the place cozy and tranquil.

After passing through this three-meter-long "narrow passage" entrance, the view suddenly opens up!

The 120-square-meter hall has now been transformed into a miniature Jiangnan garden.

The floor is covered with warm wooden flooring, and there is even a winding artificial stream in the middle with crystal-clear water where several koi carp swim happily.

The dozen or so tables are all made from whole pieces of old elm wood, giving them a heavy and substantial feel, and are paired with comfortable armchairs.

The most ingenious part is that the system actually used the five-meter ceiling height to build a semi-open two-story pavilion in the corner, with bamboo curtains hanging down, which not only ensured privacy but also added a touch of hazy beauty.

At the very back of the shop is a completely transparent open kitchen.

The stoves and kitchen utensils inside are all top-of-the-line German imports, yet they are cleverly integrated with Chinese style, spotless and shimmering with silver light.

This is hardly a dead-end shop.

This is clearly a rare quiet and elegant retreat in the bustling city!

Outside is the bustling, vibrant Jin Street, but separated by a transformer box, inside lies a tranquil paradise with flowing water.

This extreme contrast is enough to leave every guest who walks in speechless!

"Daddy! This place is so beautiful! It's like a fairy's home!"

Tuantuan excitedly ran to the stream, squatted down to look at the fish, and exclaimed, "There are even fish swimming around! Daddy, are you a fairy?"

Lin Fan looked at everything before him and nodded in satisfaction.

Anything produced by our system is guaranteed to be of high quality.

In this environment, let alone selling fried rice for tens of dollars, even selling private dishes for thousands of dollars, customers would feel it's great value for money.

A glint of light flashed in Lin Fan's eyes.

He walked to the door and glanced at the transformer box that still stood there unsightly.

From today onwards, this transformer box will no longer be a "roadblock," but rather the most unique "anti-counterfeiting mark" of Lin's small shop.

"System, process the task."

Lin Fan sat in the armchair that exuded a faint sandalwood fragrance, looking at the dreamlike shop in front of him, and a thought suddenly occurred to him.

[Ding! Congratulations, host, on completing this stage of the mission: Owning your first physical store!]

[Ding! Congratulations, host, on completing this stage of the mission: Owning your first physical store!]

[Given that this is the host's first time opening a shop, the reward is: Unlimited Power Mode! On the opening day (within 24 hours), all ingredients provided by the system will be supplied in unlimited quantities, without consuming the daily quota! Furthermore, the host's stamina will receive a temporary and significant boost, making them tireless!]

[Note: This privilege is valid only once and will automatically expire at midnight the following day, reverting to the regular limited supply mode. Host, seize this opportunity and achieve instant fame!]

Lin Fan's eyes gleamed brightly!

Unlimited supply! Tireless!

This means that as long as there are customers on the opening day, he can keep eating!

Immediately afterwards, the system notification sound continued to ring:

[Reward: Mystery Recipe x1!]

As the notification sound faded, a vast amount of culinary memories flooded into Lin Fan's mind like a sudden awakening.

That was... a noodle dish?

[Congratulations, host, you have obtained a divine-level pasta dish: Supreme Clear Broth Beef Brisket Noodles!]

Lin Fan closed his eyes and carefully examined the details of the recipe. Then he suddenly opened his eyes, a look of amazement flashing in his pupils.

This is so luxurious!

Ingredient description:

Snowy Land Yak Beef Brisket: Selected from white yaks raised above the snow line at an altitude of 4000 meters, only the most quintessential "brisket" from the ribs is used. The meat is firm, with alternating red and white stripes, and has a natural sweetness from the snow and the fragrance of wild grass.

Century-Old Broth: The system provides a century-old secret beef bone broth as a starter. The broth is clear like tea, yet rich in flavor like fine wine. Simply add fuel daily, and it will become more fragrant with each simmer.

High-gluten ice spring noodles: made with snow water from the Tianshan Mountains and high-gluten wheat flour, they are chewy and elastic, do not fall apart even after long cooking, and can hold every drop of delicious soup.

"Beef brisket noodles?"

A smile appeared on Lin Fan's lips.

This is simply a godsend for opening a shop!

Although the fried rice and steamed buns were delicious, they always seemed to lack the comfort of "soup" as a main meal.

This steaming bowl of beef brisket noodles, with its flavorful broth and tender meat, perfectly fills that void.

Most importantly, the unique, rich aroma of beef bone broth has an extremely strong penetrating power and can travel a very long distance.

If the aroma of crab roe buns is so "fresh" it drives you crazy, then the aroma of beef brisket noodles is so "fragrant" it's irresistible—it's the most primal craving for meat etched into human genes!

"Dad, what are you laughing at?"
