A vicious female is trapped in a beastly hell.

Chapter 329 Promoting Food (Bonus Chapter for Donations)
Lu Xiao went to pick up Shen Tang and take her home, leaving Jia Lan to cook dinner.

Shen Li is too lazy to cook, and Xue Yinzhou genuinely lacks any culinary talent.

Xue Yinzhou had also considered making some loving breakfasts, but the battle was no less intense than Xiao Jin's feat of blowing up the kitchen! For the sake of the family's safety, he had to withdraw from the candidate for cook.

Jialan's cooking style is rather light, which Shen Tang quite likes.

After finishing a comforting and stomach-warming dinner, just as she was about to go back to her room to rest, a system notification sounded in her mind.
[Ding! A special infrastructure mission has been issued to the host: Please increase the orc population's acceptance of healthy food. Mission requirements: Within three months, ensure that the staple food for at least one million orcs becomes balanced and healthy meals. Mission rewards: 1 Destiny Card, 1000 points!]

Promoting food was originally part of Shen Tang's plan, but she didn't expect the dog system to issue this kind of task. After thinking about it carefully, she understood.

The grain grown from the seeds produced by the system can reduce the pollution level in the beastmen's bodies. Pollution not only makes beastmen prone to madness, but also damages their bodies and shortens their lifespan.

Therefore, if we can promote healthy food to more orcs, wouldn't the overall physical fitness of the population improve? They'll have more energy for fighting and working!
"Did you already have this in mind when you sent me the seeds?"

[Hehe, host is clever. This time the reward is very generous. The mission time seems long, but the difficulty level is extremely high! Please start the mission as soon as possible!]

Shen Tang turned to Jia Lan and asked, "How's the shop renovation going?"

"The shop renovation is finished, but I haven't had time to tell you because you've been so busy these past few days."

“Recently, many refugees have emerged from various places, especially in the capital. We need to re-register the refugees’ household registrations, and I have to go and keep an eye on it. Fortunately, I’m almost done with the work these past few days. In a couple of days, we’ll be done, and then we should start preparing for opening the shop!” Shen Tang was full of enthusiasm for her work when she thought about the 1000 points and the Destiny Card.

Two days before the opening, major media outlets had already received the news and began reporting and broadcasting live.

#NewEmperorOpensRestaurant #CookingByHands #TastingForFans
This sensational headline doesn't even need to be changed.

Once released, it instantly went viral on StarNet's trending topics.

Oh my god, am I seeing things?

The newly enthroned king is opening a restaurant? And he'll personally cook for people to taste? Am I still dreaming? How did these words get put together? This is too fantastical!

[Upstairs, you can't be the only one who's still half asleep, can you? So many media outlets are reporting this, and Red Sun Media is a semi-official media outlet; they would never broadcast fake news! They've even released videos and locations, this is absolutely true!]

[Whether it's true or not, I definitely have to come and see for myself. It's so interesting! It's the first time I've ever seen a monarch do something like this; it feels so down-to-earth!]

Most people were just curious and looking for entertainment, but of course, there were also dissenting voices: "Ha, this is truly absurd! Why would an emperor give up a perfectly good job to open a restaurant? Is his brain covered in shit?"

[Hey, the person upstairs is being really rude! His Highness just wants to open a restaurant for fun, he's not going to wipe out your entire family, why are you getting so worked up!]

[That damned female has so much leg hair! A bunch of idiots put her on the throne. If it weren't for the rebel army being leaderless during the siege and needing to choose a representative to stabilize morale, would a fake princess with no blood relation even have the right to sit there?]

Some people are just incredibly stupid!

I'm telling you this right now: she won't be in this position for more than half a month; she'll be ousted!

Someone replied below, "Look at your confident assurances, why don't you post a video to prove it? If His Majesty hasn't fallen in half a month, you'll livestream yourself eating three pounds of shit!"

[...Hey everyone upstairs, let's stop discussing this topic, it's getting disgusting.]

Some rational observers also chimed in, saying, "But I'm also very curious, what exactly is this new emperor trying to do? She used to be a pampered princess who never lifted a finger, how could she possibly cook? Could it be some kind of prank?"

[What's there to guess? Since this female ruler came to power, public sentiment has been unstable, riots have broken out in various places, and many people are secretly dissatisfied. She's definitely trying to use this method to demonstrate how approachable she is and win over public support.]

What the person upstairs said really hit me hard; it makes a lot of sense!

[I agree, I saw it coming a long time ago! This new emperor's hypocritical face only makes people more disgusted!] [She doesn't need to resort to this method to win the hearts of the people, does she? It seems so contrived and strange. Just like the old ruler of the previous generation, she's a hypocrite, outwardly appearing to be happy with the people, but in private, she doesn't treat us commoners like human beings at all.]

[Exactly, they're just being deliberately mysterious. They should use that energy to give us more money!]

[His Majesty is not that kind of person; don't make baseless accusations.]

"Hey, you're talking all high and mighty. Anyone would think you're some kind of parasite in a woman's stomach. How much did you make? Let your brothers earn some too."

The internet was flooded with all sorts of comments, and Shen Tang saw some of the extreme ones, but she didn't pay much attention to them.

Those who are innocent will remain innocent; everything must be judged by facts.

The online debates and arguments only fueled the already heated discussion surrounding the incident.

Many people are discussing this offline.

The topic spread far and wide.

This has led many orcs who don't usually use StarNet to create StarNet accounts specifically for this purpose.

So much so that on the day of the official opening, many people waited patiently, and as soon as they received the broadcast notification, they quickly clicked on it!

Shen Tang and the beastmen got everything ready and opened the live stream page. Countless comments scrolled across the screen, and the stream almost instantly froze!

The live stream exploded as soon as it started, something never seen before!

StarNet staff are working on emergency repairs.

Five minutes later, the live stream returned to normal, and the number of viewers soared to a staggering tens of millions!
In just ten minutes, the number of people reached over 100 million!
Shen Tang knew that he had a lot of influence now, but he didn't expect it to be this terrifying!
It seems the task isn't so difficult to complete after all.

For the next period of time, Shen Tang and Lu Xiaojialan diligently taught the beastmen in the live stream how to cook, while Shen Li and Xue Yinzhou assisted them.

She showed the recipes to the beastmen a few days ago.

The skills Shen Tang taught Lu Xiao and the others before were too basic. With the help of recipes, they learned to cook more dishes and made them taste even better!
The beastmen, who were arguing in the comments, fell silent when they saw the female roll up her sleeves and skillfully wash and chop vegetables, stir-fry them, or roll dough into pancakes with her hands covered in flour and wrap them with freshly prepared meat and vegetable filling.

As Shen Tang demonstrated, she explained how to use the kitchen utensils and various seasonings to the viewers watching the live stream.

As she spoke, her long, nimble fingers flew, perfectly wrapping the filling between the thin crusts, without even a single vegetable leaf showing. It was so thick that it wouldn't even boil in water!

That's amazing! How did they do that?!

Many skeptical passersby shut their mouths, their faces filled with amazement. This technique was definitely not just a gimmick; it was genuine skill!

Many others stubbornly argue, "What if it was rehearsed beforehand? If she doesn't even try to look convincing, and people see through her act immediately, wouldn't she become a laughingstock? Wouldn't she end up losing more than she gained?"

[Exactly, don't just look at how good it looks; the taste is probably... indescribable!]

I swear, this stuff is absolutely awful, otherwise I'd eat shit live on air!
