After the divorce, he took care of his child and sold fried rice; his ex-wife was filled with regret

The energy-gathering and freshness-locking function of this [Purple Gold Bagua Wok] has been fully activated!

The rich aroma of eggs that was supposed to rise with the steam and spread in the air was firmly suppressed above the pot by an invisible barrier!

There was no pungent smoke, only a visible and extremely dense "golden mist" that slowly swirled and flowed within half a foot above the pot!

This is the most essential umami molecule inside the ingredients, a tangible manifestation produced by the purification of Zijin kitchenware!

With a slight flick of his wrist, Lin Fan sent the purple-gold wok tracing a graceful arc across the flames.

The fluffy, cloud-like scrambled eggs tumbled in the air before Lin Fan quickly scooped them out with a slotted spoon and set them aside. The eggs were perfectly cooked, about 70% done, so tender they were almost juicy.

Next, leave some oil in the pan and add the chopped tomatoes.

With perfect control of the heat, Lin Fan adjusted the temperature of the purple-gold wok to a most delicate balance.

The tomatoes soften quickly when stir-fried in hot oil, bringing out their rich sweet and sour juices.

The rich, bright red tomato sauce bubbled and boiled at the bottom of the pot, glistening with an enticing sheen.

The time has come!

Lin Fan poured the eggs that he had just scrambled to medium-rare back into the pan.

Red and yellow collided perfectly at this moment.

The golden eggs quickly absorbed the rich, bright red tomato juice, becoming plump and glossy.

Lin Fan didn't add a single drop of water; the stew was made entirely from the tomatoes' own juices.

Finally, sprinkle in only a tiny pinch of very fine sea salt to enhance the flavor.

There were no extra seasonings, just a handful of chopped green onions from the farmland.

The greatest truths are the simplest, returning to one's true nature.

Reduce the sauce until thickened, then remove from heat!

With a flick of his wrist, Lin Fan flipped the entire pot of scrambled eggs with tomatoes in mid-air, creating a beautiful flip before it landed steadily on a prepared white porcelain plate.

Only at this moment, when the dishes were outside the protective barrier of the purple-gold wok, did the aroma, which had been forcibly suppressed and purified countless times, finally release itself without reservation, accompanied by the heat!

"Buzz—"

The air in the kitchen seemed to tremble with the aroma.

That wasn't just any ordinary food aroma.

Instead, it's an extremely gentle, extremely simple flavor that can instantly penetrate the deepest defenses of one's soul... the taste of home!

That's the aroma of the first dish my mother brought out of the kitchen after I pushed open the door after school; that's the warmth that a wanderer longs for most in the dead of night when he's far from home.

It has a perfect balance of sweet and sour, a rich and mellow flavor, and a resonance that touches the soul.

Lin Fan looked at the brightly colored, almost glowing, home-style dish on the plate and nodded in satisfaction.

Just then.

In Lin Fan's mind, the cold and authoritative mechanical voice suddenly rang out.

[Ding! Detected that the host has completed the first dish from the "Ultimate Home-Style Recipes" series.]

[Initiating a deep holographic scan and comprehensive evaluation of the current dish...]

Lin Fan stopped what he was doing and waited quietly for the system's evaluation.

A translucent blue light curtain slowly unfolded before my eyes.

【Dish Name: Ling·Zhizhen Tomato Scrambled Eggs】

[Key Ingredients: Premium free-range eggs from Lingtian, naturally ripened tomatoes, and Kunlun spring water]

[Technique Assessment: Perfect Mastery]

[With the help of kitchen utensils: the taste is enhanced by 300%, and the spiritual energy is perfectly locked in]

[Special Bonus Effect: Emotional Resonance: Has a powerful soothing effect on mental fatigue, anxiety, and depression.]

Looking at the long list of impressive rating attributes, especially the special effect of the last one, "Emotional Resonance," a hint of surprise flashed in Lin Fan's eyes.

Without pausing, the system's voice then delivered the final pricing:

[Evaluation based on all the above dimensions.]

[System suggested retail price: 288 yuan/serving]

[Friendly Reminder: Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication, and subtlety is the essence of great flavor. The finest home-cooked meals often offer the most comforting comfort. Although this dish is vegetarian, its inherent spiritual and emotional value is immeasurable. To offer it below this price would severely diminish the host's culinary skills and the majesty of their divine kitchenware!]

"288 yuan?"

Lin Fan looked at the numbers on the screen and raised an eyebrow slightly.

A plate of scrambled eggs with tomatoes that doesn't contain a single piece of meat costs 288 yuan?

If this were in any restaurant, even a five-star hotel, and they dared to price a plate of scrambled eggs with tomatoes at nearly 300 yuan, they would probably have angry customers overturning the table the next day, and then the Bureau of Industry and Commerce would post a seizure order on the door.

This is even more outrageous than robbery!

but.

Lin Fan turned his head and glanced at the plate of stir-fried vegetables, which was still steaming, red and yellow, and exuded a warm aroma that almost brought tears to one's eyes. A calm smile appeared on his lips.

"288 it is."

In the past, he might have hesitated and wondered if the price would be too low to attract customers.

But after experiencing that charity gala and witnessing the crazy behavior of those top dignitaries who were willing to spend 1.7 million yuan to buy a skip-the-line card just to have a meal with him.

Lin Fan finally understood.

On Phoenix Golden Street, where every inch of land is precious, there is no shortage of wealthy people.

For the wealthy, if it can bring them that long-lost feeling of being moved, and give their weary souls from the pursuit of fame and fortune even a second of peace, let alone 288, they will flock to it and fight tooth and nail for it.

Lin Fan picked up a rag, wiped his hands, and turned to walk out of the kitchen.

He walked to the cashier and picked up the small blackboard used to write the menu.

The chalk flew across the blackboard, and with a crisp "tap tap tap" sound, a line of striking new words was added.

[Today's New Special: Ling's Ultimate Tomato Scrambled Eggs]

Price: 288 yuan/serving

[Limited to 50 servings per day]

After finishing writing, Lin Fan patted the chalk dust off his hands and handed the blackboard to Su Xiaoxiao, who was standing at the door wiping the windows.

"Xiaoxiao, it's almost time. Hang this up and get ready to open for business."

"Okay, Brother Lin!"

Su Xiaoxiao took the blackboard and subconsciously glanced at the contents.

"Clang!"

The rag in Su Xiaoxiao's hand fell directly to the ground.

Her big eyes widened in disbelief as she pointed at the line of words on the blackboard and stammered:

"Brother Lin... Brother Lin, this... this says... scrambled eggs with tomatoes?! Two hundred and eighty-eight yuan?!"

Although Su Xiaoxiao knew that her boss's pricing was always "generous," she accepted the 188 yuan beef brisket noodles and the 666 yuan soup dumplings, after all, those were hearty dishes with real meat and seafood in them.

But this is just a plate of scrambled eggs with tomatoes!

Two tomatoes and three eggs—the cost at the market is barely five yuan! Selling for 288?!

This leap was too big; it completely shattered her view of money.

"It's not wrong, hang it up." Lin Fan said calmly, without explaining further, and turned back to the kitchen.

Su Xiaoxiao swallowed hard, steeled herself, and walked stiffly to the shop door.
