Universe Infinite Canteen

Chapter 73: Chapter 73 He Xiaoqian

"The Deliciousness Index of Queen's Crisp ★★☆, even that werewolf turns his nose up at them, which means to impress him, it's got to be at least ★★★ to start.

"No, not right, that guy has been on Earth for over two thousand years and has tried all the delicacies here. Plus, he must have had his share of food from other dimensions before coming here. Hmm, he might even have tasted the Cosmic Chef's cooking. I'm afraid it will take dishes rated ★★★★ or above to satisfy him."

Ma Lu sat on the sofa, analyzed as he snacked on Queen's Crisps.

"Currently, the highest-level dish we can make is ★★★, and there's a 25% chance of earning an extra ☆ after your Chef level rises to 2, so that's ★★★☆. We're still half a star short, and most likely it's not going to work."

"We need to get higher-level ingredients. How about 5-star ingredients? If we can hunt down 5-star ingredients, there should be no problem, right?"

Old Wang nodded, "If I had 5-star ingredients, I could indeed try my hand at a ★★★★ recipe."

"Good, let's aim for 5-star ingredients in our next hunt."

Ma Lu decided firmly, "As long as we get the Phase Shifter and this High-Dimensional Artifact, we can open our shop. Also, why did you insist on getting the Tabletop Farm before?"

"Yan Wu was right, it's perfect for us. With it, we can cultivate ingredients, and your work will be much easier from now on."

"But I remember the Collection Bag can't hold living things," said Ma Lu, "I tried to put some Honey Lizard eggs in it before, but it failed. Or do you plan to use that thing to raise ordinary chickens, ducks, pigs, and cows?"

"That's because your Collection Bag isn't high enough level," Old Wang replied. "Once it upgrades to Level 6, it can unlock that feature."

"Level 6?" After some calculations, Ma Lu realized that upgrading the Collection Bag to level 6 would cost about 240,000, which wasn't a small sum. Even with his current earning speed, it would take more than two weeks. Continue reading at m|v-l'e m,p| y- r

Looking at it that way... well, it wasn't too slow.

Earning over ten thousand a day was actually terrifying. It was only because he had many places to spend money that he always felt stretched thin, but in reality, his earning speed had already surpassed that of an Alibaba P9.

And this was just the beginning. Ma Lu felt there was still a lot of room for improvement.

......

A week flew by quickly, and since the sale of Volcano Grilled Sausages had stopped, The Universe's Number One Snack Stall's popularity had decreased a lot.

The netizens' attention was soon drawn to "Man obsessed with alchemy steals car bottom plates 6 times" and "Woman buys 5 boxes of cockroaches to release them in the community garden."

Seeing that He Xiaoqian wanted to say more, Shen Yue directly interrupted her, "If Han Feifei wants to give it to you, just accept it. She's the richest girl in our academy, with a monthly allowance of 50,000, she doesn't care for our poor folks' money."

"That's what you say, but you still have to pay back the money you borrowed from me," Han Feifei said to Shen Yue. "And remember the favor you promised me, I'm leaving."

Upon hearing this, Shen Yue's face slightly changed color.

After Han Feifei left, Ma Lu curiously asked, "What exactly did you promise her?"

"I told her that if she helped me with makeup, I'd do a Turtle Shell Binding for her with a gag in my mouth, but I was just kidding, man. Do rich ladies really have such extreme tastes?" Shen Yue shivered.

Hearing this, He Xiaoqian was also frightened. "Then, then I should return the makeup to her and apologize properly. I think Sister Feifei is quite nice, she should be willing to forgive us."

But Ma Lu knew Shen Yue's little tricks too well and warned.

"Don't be fooled by her. She never speaks the truth normally. She exaggerated things on purpose, to make you feel like you owe her a big favor, so that you'd feel bad about rejecting any unreasonable requests from her in the future.

"Don't lower your guard just because she is a woman; she's actually bisexual."

"That's a smear against me!" Shen Yue protested loudly, a picture of righteousness. "Would I gamble with my reputation just for lying!?"

Ma Lu couldn't be bothered with her and turned to He Xiaoqian, "You have Han Feifei's WeChat, right? Just ask her directly."

Upon hearing this, Shen Yue instantly chickened out. "It's just a small thing, no need, really no need to bother Feifei again. Forget it, I'm going to buy a gag."

With that, she scampered off.

But He Xiaoqian didn't immediately start broadcasting; instead, she blushed and said to Ma Lu, "Can, can I add you on WeChat too?"

"No, you don't even buy my snacks."

"Ah?" He Xiaoqian hastily opened Alipay.

"I was just joking. But then again, if you don't buy snacks, there's really no point in adding me on WeChat."

"Oh, oh, I just want to remember all the kind-hearted people who have helped me." He Xiaoqian said earnestly. "If I ever get the chance, I will definitely repay you all."
