Love comes after eating halberds

Rejection was ineffective, so Hoshino Sora simply refused and let them lie beside them, with the delicious aroma wafting from the tip of their noses, and their heartbeats speeding up slightly.

Originally, if this development continued, it would inevitably turn into a subplot, but Hoshino Sora endured it because he was too tired every day and was bound by a moral bottom line...

Such days lasted for half a month. It wasn't until her parents came back from their honeymoon that Axiang Rika stopped visiting. Somehow, Hoshino Sora felt a little uncomfortable.

He stared at the door with a sense of loss, and then found the journal that he had collected for many years from under the bed. Because he had been surrounded by Arika Rika during this period, he had not released his natural instincts for a long time.

"call..."

I don't know how long it took, but when I looked at the basket full of tissues, Hoshino Sora's expression was refreshing, as if he had no worldly desires, and he felt relaxed all over while lying on the bed.

"Xiao Kong, it's your turn to take a shower."

"Understood, Miss Yaxiang."

Hearing the call coming from outside, Hoshino Sora responded loudly, then found his clothes and opened the locked door and went out. However, what he didn't notice was that as soon as he entered the bathroom, Yaxiang, who had just finished taking a shower, came out of the next room. , and sneaked into his room secretly.

"Ah, Sora-chan~"

"Pervert, there is a pervert here."

Looking at Yaxiang who was lying on the bed sucking the taste crazily, Rixiang appeared at some point.

"Rika...when?!"

Looking up and seeing a familiar face, Yaxiang's expression immediately became embarrassed, and her movements suddenly stopped like a caterpillar.

"I said, what are you doing here? Sniff, the whole room will think it's a little strange."

"Sniff, this...could it be?"

Because they smelled a similar smell the morning before, they thought something had gone bad. When they asked Hoshino Sora, he hesitated and became a little angry. Later, they asked their classmates to find out what it was.

"Can't go wrong!"

Rika's eyes searched the room like a radar, and then she noticed a wastebasket full of paper balls hidden in the corner: "There is already so much garbage, it should be cleaned up."

"Just let me do it. Rixiang, go back and rest first."

"You usually clean Yaxiang. Leave it to me this time and let me take it out and throw it away."

"it does not matter……"

----------

"Huh? Has the trash been taken out..."

Half an hour later, looking at the empty paper basket in the room, Hoshino Sora had a subtle expression, but he didn't delve into it. He just pulled out the desk chair, opened the notebook on the table, and started recording.

[Task]: Turnover exceeds standard

[Task Description]: Within 15 days, if the store turnover reaches 100 million, you can unlock the black iron reward, if you reach 200 million, you can unlock the bronze reward, if you reach 500 million, you can unlock the silver reward, and if you reach 3000 million, you can unlock the gold reward.

[Current mission reward]: All-purpose seasoning bottle

[Grade]: Bronze kitchenware

[Universal Seasoning Bottle]: Contains different spaces, which can accommodate different types and shapes of seasonings. It can be switched at will during use. It has an automatic grinding function, can adjust the particle size of powdered seasonings, and can control the output of seasonings. Quantity size.

It's a pity that I didn't meet Fu Ge during this period. Under normal business conditions, Hoshino Sora tried his best to only create a turnover of 383 million, which is still far from 500 million.

This is related to the location where his store is opened. Sanhe Street is located in a civilian area. The customer groups he faces are mostly office workers and student parties. Their consumption levels are limited. The high prices will greatly reduce the customer flow.

Of course, because Chitong Heitong posted a review of his restaurant on the Internet, it attracted a group of water-loving tourists, which also promoted the development of the store's economy to a certain extent.

Nowadays, Hoshino Restaurant has people waiting at the door before opening every day. He also launched a breakfast section. He didn’t make any fuss about this part, just the simplest soy milk fried dough sticks and pancakes.

It's a pity that even though he tried his best, he didn't reach the silver level reward in the end. The reward can be settled at the end of the mission tonight. The multi-purpose seasoning bottle is average in effect from the description, but it is more convenient.

Not bad.

After simply writing down the bill on paper, Hoshino Sora went to bed and rested. When he woke up early the next day, the first thing he did was to look at his taskbar.

Sure enough, the task of exceeding the turnover limit was shown as completed. There was an additional seasoning bottle in the storage backpack, and a new task appeared below.

[Trigger mission]: Sanhe Street Kitchen King Competition

[Task Description]: Recently, Sanhe Street will hold an annual chef competition. There are more than [-] stores participating in the competition, and the top three will receive the golden sign of Sanhe Street.

[Task Requirements]: If you win the top three in the King of Kitchen Competition, you will get a reward. In addition, each time you advance one person will get an additional reward.

[Task Reward]: ① Cooking skills: Spice Formula ② Silver-level ingredients: 1kg of volcano pork ③ 1000 million yen ④ Recipe encyclopedia (incomplete) ⑤ Magic spices (a small amount)

Seeing this reward, Xing Yekong became excited instantly. He sat up suddenly, tapped his fingers in the void, and raised the corners of his mouth unnaturally.

However, after being happy, Hoshino Sora couldn't help but think about it. If he wanted to get rewards, he had to get into the top three in the King of Kitchen Competition. This part was a little difficult.

Although Sanhe Street is just a civilian food street with frequent changes in shops, there are still many century-old shops. These shops often have their own unique secret recipes, which is why they have been operating for such a long time.

Among them, the Humen family's eel rice, Suki family's sushi, Iping family's yakiniku house, Heisei family's sashimi, and Kurawei family's desserts are all famous old signatures of Sanwa Street!

After this period of understanding, Hoshino Sora has roughly understood the layout of the commercial street. There are more than a thousand shops of various types, of which one-fifth are food-related shops.

This is a world dominated by food. Food is the absolute primary productive force in this world!

Of course, if there are too many people working in an industry, there will inevitably be involution. This is also the reason why the cuisine in this world tastes so good. Another layer is the high quality of raw materials and the richness of seasonings.

Isn’t there an old saying that just this seasoning is enough to taste even if you dip it into the soles of your slippers?

The quality of the raw materials has a great influence on the final taste of the food. Just like steak, why do the prices of the same part vary dozens of times?

There is certainly commercial hype, but its own value must also be affirmed.

Looking at his sunny and handsome self in the mirror, Hoshino Sora's face was full of vigor. After washing himself for a while, he started to make breakfast full of energy.

It was already six o'clock in the morning when everything was ready. Hoshino Sora woke his family up to have dinner. The meal time was 10 minutes. After finishing the meal, he and Akari Rika set off.

The ingredients needed for the restaurant were prepared last night, and now he can start work immediately as long as he rushes over there, with more dexterous hands and feet, and he can open normally around seven o'clock.

After all, the main thing he sells here is fried dough sticks, pancakes, and soy milk. As long as these items are prepared in advance, they are not meals that take a long time to serve.

Chapter 12 Nakiri Erina’s visit

"The food here is really delicious, especially the fried dough sticks. They are crispy and full of flavor. They are much better than the ones I had in the mall. And the price is cheaper!"

Sitting in the corner of the store, an office worker carrying a briefcase was full of praise. Yesterday, he heard from his colleagues that a new delicious shop had opened here with affordable prices, so he made a special detour today.

"Try the fried dough sticks dipped in soy milk, the two are a perfect combination! The soft soy milk softens the crispy fried dough sticks, and the sweet and salty collision is like playing a symphony in your mouth!"

Takeda Harumi occupies two seats by herself. She is enthusiastically explaining the food in the store to Igarashi Futaba, who she met by chance on the street. Because she met him in the commercial street, she took the opportunity to attract him to this store.

"It's so hot..."

After hearing this, Futaba Igarashi took a sip of soy milk, and the next moment her tongue came out and she gasped for air. She kept fanning her hands beside her. It was obvious that she was stabbed in the back by the bowl of soy milk.

"Hahaha, blow it first and then eat it."

"Senior, I am not a child."

"It's great. It's worth my while to come here. Little girl, pack two fried dough sticks and four fried dough cakes to take away."

"Have some wolf-toothed potatoes, boss, hurry up, you're going to be late for school!"

Looking at the orders delivered from the front desk, Hoshino Sora was busy working enthusiastically. At some point, beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, which was the sequelae of high-intensity work.

However, due to the training during this period, Hoshino Sora's physical strength has been greatly improved, at least he will not suffer from back pain as in the beginning if the intensity is slightly higher.

"Ten fried dough sticks and wolf-toothed potatoes, here we go."

The whole restaurant was busy in an orderly manner, and it wasn't until after ten o'clock that the number of customers began to gradually decrease, but within an hour at most, a new customer peak would arrive!

Looking at the bubbling stew, Hoshino Sora's eyes were a little wary, and he was thinking about whether he should recruit a helper, as there were not enough waiters.

Sister Yaxiang and Sister Lixiang are already sweating profusely from work at this time. If this continues, their bodies will collapse.

Hoshino Sora is thinking that now that the turnover task has been completed, he does not need to find ways to make money. It is also a good choice to have more rest time.

"One portion of pig's trotter rice, one portion of wolf tooth potatoes, and one portion of soup."

With this thought in mind, the previous order was passed over again, and the first lunch guest had already arrived. Fortunately, the pig's trotter rice was not difficult to make, but it was just too busy for one person.

Alas, sometimes business is too good but also very troublesome.

------------

At night, Hoshino Sora put up a sign that he was closed for business in advance. Akari Rika went out to buy the flour that had been used up, and he was cleaning the restaurant. However, at this moment, the wind chimes at the door of the store rang.

"It's closed. Please come back tomorrow."

"It's closed so early. The business of civilian cuisine is indeed not good."

The person who came was none other than Erina Nakiri, with a somewhat unhappy expression on her face. She was accompanied by a very heroic girl with pink-purple hair, brown eyes, a blue-purple top, and a plaid pleated skirt. She was a very A beautiful girl who agrees.

Nito Hisako, this guy Hoshino Sora recognizes, he is good at medicinal cuisine, also known as the secretary, Nakiri Erina's only friend, to be precise, he should be a good concubine, the kind of concubine who is full of love.

"Why did Miss Nakiri come here? Is it just to ridicule me, or is it because I saw that my brother is so handsome, so I couldn't help but feel a surge of love and came to my door to attract my attention."

Seeing Nakiri Erina and Nito Hisako appearing in front of the store, Hoshino Sora naturally didn't think that they came here to ridicule, but this did not affect his pleasure.

Who is Nakiri Eri?The leader of the younger generation of Totsuki Academy, the youngest top ten in history, the admired and respected figure of many male students, and a true figure on the altar.

Being able to tease other people's superior goddesses gives me a sense of satisfaction from the bottom of my heart, especially when I see the other person getting angry because of shyness (laughs).

"You think I want to come here! I don't know what grandpa is interested in you. He asked me to personally come and invite you to take Yuanyue's transfer exam. But with your country bumpkin cooking, even if you go, you will definitely not pass the exam."

Hearing Hoshino Sora's words, Nakiri Erina bit her lower lip and said angrily, this guy is really sharp-tongued, he actually said such disgusting words to her!

If grandpa hadn't insisted on her coming in person and couldn't shirk it no matter what, she wouldn't have invited this guy!

"You rude fellow, do you know who this person is in front of you?!"

The expression on his face became a little ugly. After hearing Hoshino Sora's frivolous remarks, Nito Hishako immediately stood up and stood in front of Nakiri Erina, looking like he was protecting the Lord wholeheartedly.

"I know, Nakiri Erina, what's wrong?"

Hoshino Sora said indifferently. Respect is mutual. Since the other party doesn't respect him, there is no need for him to be nice. Although he knows that she is influenced by her father, knowing is one thing, and being unhappy is another. It's over.

There is no one who starts taunting her as soon as she enters the door. This girl has a problem with her thinking and needs to be disciplined.

"How dare you call Lady Erina by her full name? Don't you know Lady Erina's status in the catering industry?!"

Seeing Hoshino Sora's cynical and indifferent expression, Hisako immediately became a little anxious, wondering why this guy didn't play his cards according to the routine. It was obvious that everyone looked respectful when they saw Erina-sama.

"Isn't it because your palate is relatively developed that you are invited by major restaurants to evaluate the food? Not everyone can do this kind of thing. I really thought that I had such a big influence, but it was only because of my status as the granddaughter of Commander-in-Chief Totsuki that I was asked It’s just something that everyone is afraid of.”

Looking at the somewhat annoyed Nito Hisako, a brilliant idea came to Hoshino Sora's mind. He looked arrogant and his words were full of sarcasm. This was also the most direct counterattack against the opponent.

"That's not what you said, Erina-sama..."

"Enough Fei Sha! It's normal for him not to know my value, just like a wild dog on the roadside doesn't know the preciousness of gems."

Suppressing the anger in her heart, Nakiri Erina mocked pointedly, but her slightly clenched fists proved that her heart was not so plain.

Wherever she goes, is she not sought after?Never had she ever been so insulted, Hoshino Sora, she remembered this name!

"It seems that you are very dissatisfied. Since you have always said that this is common people's cuisine, why don't you make an upper-class meal? Let me see how difficult it is for upper-class people to cook?"

Common people's cooking is simple, delicious and has no technical content.Your upper-class cuisine should not be like my common people's cuisine. If someone watches the preparation process, it will be exactly the same on the spot. "

"What do you mean?"

Nakiri Erina frowned slightly, not understanding what Hoshino Sora meant. Well, actually she understood, but she just couldn't believe what she heard...

"What I mean is that no matter what food you cook next, I can easily copy it. The appearance, taste, and texture are all exactly the same, thus proving that your food is not that high-class."

"Copying food, or copying it in all directions, how is this possible?!"

Nito Hisako exclaimed, and his brows also wrinkled. If you want to copy a dish perfectly, every detail must be the same, but not exactly the same, because there will be slight differences between the ingredients. How can this happen? possible?No one can do this!

Chapter 13 The Bet

"Insanity!"

"Since you all think it's impossible, how about we make a bet? The dignified young lady of Totsuki shouldn't be afraid of the challenge of a commoner like me, a cook."

Hoshino Sora said provocatively, pitifully these two little girls didn't know what would happen next.

For Hoshino Sora, door-to-door delivery of free labor can be regarded as a solution to an urgent need.

"Since you are talking about a bet, what can you use as a bargaining chip? Behind me is Yuanyue Saryo Academy. I also have more than a dozen restaurants under my name, and my accumulated wealth is billions."

Seeing Hoshino Sora being so arrogant and arrogant, Nakiri Erina's body was shaking with anger. She immediately decided to teach him a lesson and copy her cooking?Do not make jokes!

"Wealth? I'm not short of money. What I want is your people and your little assistant."
