Chapter 487 (1/2)

There were 10 dishes in all for the all-fish banquet, including nine dishes and one soup. And all of them were from the reward of the Intermediate Chef.

“Let me just cook a pot of fish soup. Then I can leave half a bowl of the soup to Broth.” While scooping up the fish, Yuan Zhou decided on the dish to be cooked.

When he had meals alone, Yuan Zhou was quite random.

“The wild-growing pleurotus ferulae really has a distinct taste.” Yuan Zhou picked some mushrooms with the chopsticks and directly chewed it.

That’s right. What Yuan Zhou randomly ate was the Stewed Fish with Pleurotus Ferulae, the wild-growing variety, of course.

As for what the pleurotus ferulae was, it was simple.

It was the perennial ferula umbelliferae medicinal plant with another name of Asafetida, of which the root was a precious Chinese herbal medicine. It had the functions of relieving distension and fullness, whetting the appetite, invigorating spleen, curing arthritis, and even inhibit the growth of tumors. Besides, the pleurotus ferulae also belonged to the basidiomycotina hymenomycetes agaricales pleurotaceae pleurotus and was also the representative macrofungi growing in the arid grassland.

Moreover, it was regarded by the local people as the divine mushroom in Tianshan Mountain and white glossy ganoderma in the west. Due to over-exploitation and livestock trampling, the natural resources were severely destroyed and the wild-growing pleurotus ferulae was becoming lesser and lesser every year. Currently, the pleurotus ferulae sold in the market were mostly cultivated artificially. Neither the taste nor the fragrance was as good as that of the wild-growing ones.

“It is truly the best quality since it is provided by the system.” Yuan Zhou drank a mouthful of fish soup and sighed with emotion.

Speaking of the best quality, Yuan Zhou suddenly remembered that he still hadn’t received a reward. He hadn’t received all of the rewards at a time.

“It seems that my obsessive-compulsive disorder isn’t as serious as I imagined.” Yuan Zhou said with a tone of narcissism.

Fortunately, there was nobody around. Otherwise, Yuan Zhou would be mocked to death. His obsessive-compulsive disorder had been so serious that he even built a ladder to ensure the painting was in order. How come that it got better?

“System, I still have a special reward that hasn’t been obtained, right?” Yuan Zhou uttered and asked.

The system displayed, “Yes.”

“I want to get it now.” Yuan Zhou said cleanly.

The system displayed, “Host, please draw the lottery by yourself.”

“Lottery again? Wait for a second.” Yuan Zhou drank up the remaining fish soup with a gulp and then wiped his hands and cleaned them continuously. Only after that did he prepare to draw the lottery.

“How many times can I draw the special reward?” Yuan Zhou asked first.

The system displayed, “Once.”

“Only once for a special reward? You are so mean, system.” Yuan Zhou murmured.

“It seems that I have to do some preparatory work.” Yuan Zhou thought seriously.

“Hua”. Yuan Zhou opened the drawer, took out the bright red 100 RMB notes and took them in his hands for a while. Meanwhile, he muttered something and only put them down after some time.

“Okay. We can start.” As Yuan Zhou finished saying that, there appeared a rotary table in his mind.

Just like what usual during normal times. The names of various rewards were written on the rotary table.

Like 100 varieties of milk tea and a complete collection of fruit drinks, etc. These were contained in one grid. Apart from that, there was also only one other variety in each grid. For example, mint water, lemon water and apple juice, etc.

“So the special reward is actually all drinks?” Yuan Zhou asked with puzzlement.

The system displayed, “Yes.”

“If I can draw the 100 varieties of milk tea, I think I can start a milk tea store.” Yuan Zhou couldn’t help ridiculing.

Then, he was ignored by the system. Luckily, Yuan Zhou had gotten used to that and thus continued watching the rotary table.

“System, what is the mineral water doing here since I’m now drawing the drinks?” Yuan Zhou really couldn’t understand why the mineral water was also counted as the drinks. It was no more than clean water.

The system displayed, “The mineral water is Lourdes Spring Water. It’s rumored that the water can cure incurable diseases in the current medical community and has great effects.”

“Pardon?” Yuan Zhou was muddled about that.

When did the system learn to say “rumored”? Did that mean it was a legend?

Did that mean his restaurant would become a hospital rather than a restaurant in the future?

“Isn’t it the hot spring? Many people are said to go there every year to bathe or drink.” Yuan Zhou didn’t feel comfortable with that. If it was real, the spring was actually the bath water.
