Chapter 143: Ambitions of the System
“Sorry to keep you waiting for so long. What can I do for you?” After seeing off Mu Xiaoyun, Yuan Zhou finally had some time.
“You are welcome. It’s mainly because Boss Yuan’s dishes are delicious,” Despite his reserved and stern manner, the man nevertheless spoke gently.
“Thank you,” Yuan Zhou expressed his gratitude politely with a nod and waited for the man to speak about the issue at hand.
When the man found Yuan Zhou didn’t intend to ask, he first said.
“Let’s just be frank and blunt. We are all busy,” the man paused a little while speaking.
“Go ahead,” Yuan Zhou nodded and signaled him to continue.
The man first looked around and then suddenly said, “I think everything is great in your restaurant but it lacks some liveliness. I would rather bring some ornamental fishes for a better visual effect.”
While saying “everything is great”, he revealed some sort of reluctance on his face. Yuan Zhou’s restaurant could only be regarded as simple and in good taste at best. As the system was in charge of the decorations, Yuan Zhou didn’t have any incentives to enhance it.
“Thank you, but there is no need,” Yuan Zhou refused flatly.
“Boss Yuan, don’t worry. This is just my donation,” the man showed an earnest look, except that his tone became even tougher.
“No need, really,” with a frown, Yuan Zhou still refused.
“You don’t like fish?” the man was a little curious.
“They are alright,” after thinking for a while, Yuan Zhou found he didn’t really hate the fish.
“Are you sure you don’t want it?” the man asked in the end.
“Humm,” Yuan Zhou nodded. After that, the man left straight away.
Yuan Zhou happened to know about the ornamental fishes. When he had worked in the three-star hotel, he once showed curiosity concerning the taste of the colorful koi in the entrance hall. Nevertheless, the price left him mightily impressed.
Sow nothing and reap nothing. Yuan Zhou was reluctant to receive such donations. If he received it, it was as if he owed others something. Yuan Zhou touched his pocket contentedly and was quite satisfied with the number in his bank account.
The system displayed, “Host, you have activated a side mission. Please complete it as soon as possible.”
[Side Mission] Please complete 10 Customer Satisfaction Surveys and make sure all the scores exceed at least 9
[Mission Reward] An Ornamental Sergestes Wall Landscape
Suddenly, the system directly released a mission.
Yuan Zhou touched his forehead with sort of puzzlement, “Are you not satisfied after being despised for your lousy taste?”
Usually, the system didn’t release consecutive missions. It was surely unusual to give missions so frequently, especially when Yuan Zhou had just finished the staged mission. Now a side mission was suddenly issued.
It was unavoidable for Yuan Zhou to suspect it was due to the system being despised by the man for its decoration taste and lack of liveliness. Hence, the reward of the mission also confirmed Yuan Zhou’s speculation. The sergestes should be some kind of a living creature.
“System, are you ambitious or are you arrogant?” Yuan Zhou asked with puzzlement.
However, the system still acted as usual and didn’t have any reaction.
On the contrary, several A4 sized paper questionnaires suddenly appeared in the drawer at Yuan Zhou’s side.
“Zi”, Yuan Zhou pulled open the drawer, where the questionnaire forms were quietly lying.
The first thing that came into sight was the headline “Satisfaction Survey” and only ten questions listed below, which did not appear perfect nor professional. That made Yuan Zhou feel the mission was much more of a joke.
“Does the mission have a time limit?” Taking the questionnaires in his hand, Yuan Zhou asked.
The system displayed, “No.”
“How much is the full score?” suddenly, Yuan Zhou recalled of the requirement of the mission.
The system displayed, “10.”
“So concise and blunt.” Yuan Zhou was rather speechless.
