Food: My food truck can be upgraded indefinitely.

Chapter 70 Zhang Fan, do you know you're famous now?

[Congratulations on completing the system activation task! Your Infinite Food Cart has been upgraded to LV2.]

Starting from LV2, with each level up, your stamina, energy, and endurance will receive a comprehensive boost!

[Level 2 Food Cart (Refrigerated Display Case) Preservation: Refrigerated display cases can extend the shelf life of food by ten times, and some precious ingredients can slowly recover on their own.]

[Based on your existing template...]

[You have acquired the culinary talent: Flame Manipulation!]

Flame manipulation?

Perception becomes manipulation; can I control fire now?

Ling Yun was still wondering when a flood of information rushed into his mind, teaching him how to control flames and thus cook.

After receiving the message, he was deeply moved.

Ling Yun unconsciously looked at the iron plate in front of him.

If he could control the flames, he wouldn't even need an iron plate to conduct and control the temperature.

He looked around and, seeing that no one was paying attention to him, silently recited the system command to sell the iron plate, leaving only the sixteen fire-breathing stoves.

then.

He then had a row of iron frames installed on the system.

Ling Yun turned around, took out a piece of steak, and placed it directly on the edge of the iron rack without marinating it.

Fire.

Flames shot out.

Ling Yun stared at the flames for a few seconds, and the next instant, the flames intensified to twice their original size.

He slowly picked up the steak and placed it on top.

The flame is automatically split.

The once-explosive flames now resembled a fine, pervasive rain, seeping into every crevice of the steak.

Ling Yun originally thought he would need to keep in control.

original.

Simply tell the flame your idea, and it will run automatically.

He opened sixteen stove openings in succession.

Sixteen flames, whether or not there's steak, all operate in the exact same way!

That's incredible!

Well known.

The most difficult part of pan-frying steak is controlling the heat.

Lingyun spent a year constantly frying steaks before he mastered the technique.

That's good now.

The flames move completely according to your will, so you no longer have to worry about uneven heat or excessive heat. You can even skip flipping and sealing the edges.

The key is that the speed can also be increased extremely quickly.

Originally, when pan-frying steaks over medium heat on a hot plate, it takes about six minutes for one batch of steaks, but if you want to cook multiple batches, it takes more than seven minutes.

it's good now.

Lingyun can use intense heat directly, which not only produces steaks of far superior quality, but also increases the speed to its limit.

Two minutes should be enough to prepare the food.

Lingyun communicated with the system again, placing all the flame nozzles together densely, leaving space for the hot iron plates and sauce pouring on the left and right sides.

In this way...

A brand new steak preparation station was born.

Two more flamethrowers were added, bringing the total to eighteen.

In this way.

The operation is reduced to just two steps: putting it on and taking it off. It's incredibly simple.

It can serve 18 steaks every two minutes, and the number of meals served per hour reaches a staggering 540.

Speaking solely of this speed.

Ling Yun has already surpassed all the chefs.

With this speed, he no longer worried about the festival celebrations.

"By the way, System, what's the next upgrade mission?"

[Food Cart Upgrade LV3 Mission: Earn millions in profit from the food cart.]

"Isn't this simple?" Ling Yun was overjoyed.

He had just acquired the miraculous skill of rapid meal preparation, and a mere one million would be enough to meet the target by the end of this holiday, not to mention that Wen Chong's six hundred thousand was already in the process of being processed.

system:

"A reminder to the host: the 600,000 yuan repaid by Wen Chong cannot be counted as profit. Secondly, you are currently in debt of 300,000 yuan."

"How is that possible?" Ling Yun exclaimed in disbelief. "How could I possibly be in debt?"

"The costs for the ingredients, gas, cleaning, and shelf modifications you've incurred over the past few days for food tasting... Oh, and just now, to prevent the food cart from melting in the fire, the system automatically reinforced the cart's material, costing 100,000!"

Ling Yun felt a pang of heartache.

It cost 100,000 to modify just one control panel, no wonder you're 300,000 in debt!

really.

Intangible expenses can easily lead to overspending...

In the future, such modifications will still need to be made.

After all, as long as you have cooking skills, making money is not difficult at all.

"I understand," Ling Yun nodded.

System: "Host, have you decided what to do next?"

"Of course." Ling Yun took out his phone and called Brother Li: "Brother Li, I need to borrow another batch of goods."

"No problem!" Brother Li replied without hesitation.

"I will pay it back!"

"We'll talk about that later!"

"But I need to borrow a lot of goods this time!"

"sure!"

……

Traffic police team.

Zhang Fan, who had just finished get off work, went to the office and found his instructor.

"Boss, did they serve lunch over there today?"

"Yo!"

The leader has been asked this question countless times today, and he laughed as soon as he heard it:

"You guys are all stubborn mules. When we first asked you to go, none of you were willing. Now that it's been a day and a half, you're all eager to ask."

He paused, then changed the subject:

"However, things have changed a bit. A while ago, someone else was doing the tasting, but I just got word that they're going to start selling it."

His tone was somewhat cautious.

Even if it's just a task, as long as it's free, it's fine.

Now that the topic of money has come up, he's become uncertain.

Even though the leader only gave a notification, if too few people from his side show up, wouldn't that look bad and make the leader lose face?

If it's a job that forces someone to spend money, that's really not easy to do, and it might cause big problems!

"For Sale!?" Zhang Fan suddenly screamed.

After he finished that meal yesterday, he went back and searched online, only to find that one serving of that dish cost 2666 yuan.

No wonder it tastes so good.

But he can't afford it.

My monthly salary is only four or five thousand. If it weren't for the good benefits, I wouldn't be able to make ends meet.

This is a dish of this caliber.

Ordinary people can only afford to order two or three servings on occasions like their tenth wedding anniversary.

However, the taste is definitely worth it.

Zhang Fan said with concern, "Boss, could you please talk to them and ask for a discount for all of us?"

He gritted his teeth inwardly.

After working for so long, it's time to let my family enjoy themselves.

Not just his wife and children.

Should I bring my parents and in-laws?

It's fine to grit your teeth and eat it once, but the real problem is getting addicted!

"Um."

The instructor turned around, wanting to see Zhang Fan's reaction:

"They sent us the menu, which includes three dishes: steak for 26.6 yuan, braised duck for 40 yuan per jin (500g), and three-cup chicken for 56 yuan per serving. They're giving us an 80% discount, so take a look..."

"Oh, it's this dish? That's so cheap!"

Zhang Fan realized what was happening.

They're selling pre-packaged dishes over there, not gourmet-level cuisine.

Although it was a bit of a pity, it also relieved him.

This price.

That's still perfectly affordable.

The instructor adjusted his glasses, a hint of suspicion in his eyes behind the lenses, and confirmed:

"Can you really accept that?"

Zhang Fan laughed upon hearing this: "Boss, you must have been busy with work and didn't go. The food was really delicious; you even wanted to take some home after you finished eating."

The instructor was amused by his exaggerated description:

"If that's the case, then everyone will be scrambling to go!"

"Yeah, I'm taking my wife and kids right now!"

Zhang Fan turned and left decisively.

The instructor smiled as he watched his hurried figure disappear into the distance.

Oh, I see. That makes sense then.

"Wait for me!"

He called out to Zhang Fan, ready to try it himself, so he would feel more confident.

After he goes there, he should call his supervisor to report it, so that his supervisor knows that he has taken the matter seriously, put his heart into it, and done a good job.

"I don't know the way, can you take me there?"

"Yes, sir!"

Zhang Fan took out his phone and called his wife, telling her and the children to change their clothes, saying he was going to take them out to eat.

The instructor lowered his head and sent out the prepared message in the group chat.

Sure enough, everyone said they could accept it, and many cheered, saying they had been waiting for it.

He felt relieved and walked out of the office side by side with Zhang Fan.

We arrived in the corridor.

A large group of people walked over from the opposite side, all holding their phones.

Upon seeing Zhang Fan, the group immediately shouted:

"Zhang Fan, do you know you're famous now?"
