As the light flashed by.

Chen Mo discovered that the latest task in the Seeking Love series was already completed in reality!

"Did it really just get completed like that?"

Chen Mo originally didn’t have much hope for this task because changing the local preference for boys over girls is quite an absurd endeavor in itself.

Is it possible?

Possible.

But relying on one person’s ability, it’s absolutely impossible.

Listening to Cheng Xiuli and Lingzi’s parents chat for half a day.

Wen Haiping has officially joined the company today, and the profit from just one day is already enough to cover a month’s franchise fee.

Of course, everyone knows the fact that when a restaurant first opens, business is typically at its peak, and as customers continue to dine over time, business will gradually return to a stable period.

How the income is during that stable period will be the decisive factor in whether this business can continue.

"President Cheng, I’ve already contacted quite a few fellow villagers, and several of them said they want to come back and give it a try with us. Working outside is too hard!"

Cheng Xiuli smiled sweetly, "Working outside is hard, and running a small business back home is also quite tough."

"That’s different!" Lingzi’s father stretched his neck, "Working outside, you don’t earn much and can’t look after your family. When we return to our hometown, no matter how hard it is, as long as we can be with our children and elders, it doesn’t feel tough at all!"

"What you said makes sense, anyway, if there are still people on your side wanting to join, just contact us as soon as possible. Oh, right," Cheng Xiuli remembered something, "The snacks we’re making now are all from this Boss Chen, and he will be leaving in a few days. You might want to tell your fellow villagers that if they come late, they might miss the chance to make these great snacks by Boss Chen."

Cheng Xiuli smoothly did a round of scarcity marketing.

Actually, it’s not that critical. If Night Market Street doesn’t work out, there’s still the Food Street, and if that doesn’t work, they can go to another slightly nearer city.

Of course, considering regional protection, it’s impossible for everyone to obtain the rights to Chen Mo’s snacks, so first come, first served makes sense too.

"Oh, I got it! I’ll contact my fellow villagers tonight!"

Chen Mo watched them chat a bit more before Wen Haiping mentioned that Yingzi was about to finish class, so he had to leave, and the two groups parted ways. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝙬𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝓶

"So, Boss Chen, are you satisfied with this result?"

Chen Mo exhaled, "Pretty good, although it doesn’t solve large-scale problems, it at least solves the issue of some people from Dashuang Village leaving their hometown."

Cheng Xiuli swept her hair behind her ear, "Large-scale? Boss Chen, those kinds of problems aren’t something people like us can solve. What you’ve managed to do is quite... great."

Great?

It’s truly the first time Chen Mo’s been praised like this; using such a term on himself feels a bit exaggerated.

"You’re too kind. President Cheng, head back early to rest, I also need to get some sleep."

"Alright."

Back at the parking lot, Chen Mo wasn’t in a hurry to head back inside to sleep; instead, he pulled up a chair and sat beneath the food truck enjoying the evening breeze.

Amidst the scorching heat, clothed in black, it was rather comfortable, especially with a cup of orange juice.

Though the drink machine is versatile, after trying various options, Chen Mo still finds orange juice with sugar and ice to be the best tasting; no wonder freshly squeezed oranges are selling like hotcakes now...

"Check task rewards."

Now with the food truck fully equipped and functions complete, Chen Mo’s anticipation for system rewards isn’t as strong as it was at the beginning.

Sipping on the icy, sweet orange juice, flickers of light flashed repeatedly in his mind.

[Congratulations, you have completed the task Seeking Love!]

[Reward: Skill*1]

"Oh?"

Not having much expectation, Chen Mo suddenly sat up straight, "A skill? Is it the kind of skill you learn instantly like an epiphany?"

[...Yes]

Damn!

Chen Mo suppressed the discomfort from his heart suddenly pounding fiercely and hurried into the room; such a reward was too overbearing, too eerie!

After entering the room, he activated the privacy function and then shouted loudly three times in the empty room, "Quick, see what skill it is!"

This kind of reward is something that completely breaks through human understanding.

If the upgrade of a food truck with various functions can still be explained as "incomprehensible technology," then something that directly affects the human body is completely extraordinary.

[Gourmet Instinct: When you are near various top-notch ingredients, you can always keenly sense them; good luck always accompanies you in the process of finding ingredients. Moreover, you can always easily replicate when you taste various delicacies.]

Chen Mo carefully studied every word of the skill description; it seemed impressive, yet not that impressive.

The latter part is easy to understand: eat a dish, and then you can imagine how to make it in your mind.

Actually, Chen Mo can almost do this now, as it’s entirely based on an insight into cooking techniques and ingredients, something most veteran chefs can achieve.

The first part, however, is not so easy to comprehend.

"What’s meant by being able to easily perceive when near top-notch ingredients? Is it like a dog’s nose? And then always especially lucky to find this ingredient?"

"Bah! You’re the one with a dog’s nose!"

Thinking of this made Chen Mo both amused and speechless; no wonder people curse each other by saying they have a dog’s nose and can smell everything.
