Chapter 142: Yuan Zhou’s Pub

At 4 p.m., the e-sports streamer, Black Big, hurriedly came to Yuan Zhou’s restaurant together with Meng Meng.

He specifically didn’t inform them of his arrival time in order to let them see personally what a good business Yuan Zhou’s restaurant had got. Therefore, the 20 fans invited by Black Big were all waiting in line outside the entrance for their turn.

In the noisy and bustling surroundings, Black Big and Meng Meng started the live broadcast. Of course, they needed to show the scene to even more audiences to prove it was true and for real. And because of the live broadcast, more and more people joined the line.

Wherever there was a lively scene, there would be onlookers. The countrymen had never disliked big events as they could watch the fun.

Afterward, Yuan Zhou’s restaurant was surrounded by a crowd of customers. The unprecedented prosperity was not any less than the discount day.

When more white-collar employees got off work in the evening and saw the situation, they thought there was another discount offered in Yuan Zhou’s restaurant and hence excitedly came over to join the line.

Even if they knew later on there was not, they had already spent so long waiting thus decided to have dinner here.

The restaurant in the evening was awfully busy. However, Yuan Zhou’s expression was always mild, which probably indicated the mission was about to be completed.

After the hard work all day long, the night fell. As soon as Yuan Zhou closed the restaurant, he couldn’t wait to tap open the mission and began to check the status.

[Fourth Stage of the Mission] Both the turnover and number of customers surpass those on the discount date respectively.

(Mission Tips: A top-grade chef should increase the value of his dishes over the price. Host, please work hard to increase the value of his dishes over this ordinary price, young man.)

[Time of mission] Ten days (at the 9th day)

[Reward of mission] Three hours of nightlife and a bonus package of wines (available to be received)

(Reward tips: the host is required to find another place for the location of the nightlife. When the time comes, the system will provide unified decorations.)

[Mission Status] Completed

“Receive the reward.” While looking at the completed mission, as expected, Yuan Zhou was quite happy.

“Has the store been decorated?” Yuan Zhou thought for a while and asked about the decoration of the neighboring stores. Surprisingly, he didn’t check the content of the reward immediately.

The system displayed, “The decorations have been completed. Host, please put them in service as soon as possible.”

Yuan Zhou didn’t really care about the system’s urging. Instead, he sat in his special position and thought for a moment before going downstairs.

“Dong Dong Dong,” he moved in quick steps and opened the back door of the neighboring store. Right now it also belonged to him.

Actually, every store had more or less the same layout. It was merely that this store had formerly been a tea house and was much bigger than Yuan Zhou’s restaurant. As soon as Yuan Zhou entered the back door, he arrived at the main hall of the ground floor, which differed from previously, when it had been full of tables and chairs.

Now it had become spacious. A circle of primitive and plain wooden wine barrels with its original color were placed at a corner of a wall. The most conspicuous thing was the stairs located in the middle of the main hall. It was wooden and had a width of only two persons to pass at the same time. When stepped upon, the stairs emitted a clear and melodious sound.

Different from the formerly yellowish and greasy stairway which constantly emitted a sound of “Ge Zhi”, it seemed that the system had replaced the wood with new ones.

Passing through the main hall, Yuan Zhou first arrived at the courtyard. The door of the tea house was located in the front courtyard. There had been three stone tables outside formerly, which appeared rather elegant. However, now, the front courtyard was directly rebuilt by the system into a garden. The stone table had disappeared and in the same place various green plants were planted.

Planted beside the yard wall at Yuan Zhou’s side was a cherry-apple tree, which was apparently provided by the system. The appearance was exquisite; the branches seemed to be either carefully trimmed or grown naturally and were aesthetically pleasing.

It was July. The pretty and delicate flowers of the cherry-apple had withered away and the tree had borne fruits, which were turning red from green. Some of them were so red that they turned into a bright hot pink.

Moreover, the fruits of the cherry-apple were eatable, with thin skin and fresh flesh. They had a unique delicate sweet and sour taste. The fruits could be eaten either fresh or cut opened and made into dried cherry-apples to be conserved for further processing. Besides, there was another frozen method for eating the fruits, that is, to eat the cherry-apples that had been completed frozen. The taste was more delicate and refreshing that way.

Yuan Zhou carefully identified the plants inside the yard. Planted along the walls were camellias, which hadn’t blossomed as it was in the wrong season. Other plants were basically those that Yuan Zhou wouldn’t know at all unless they blossomed.
