Have you ever seen glowing food? That's why you draw a food-themed anime.

However, in my own store...

The price of 185 is already quite good.

After checking the prices of the ingredients and the selling prices, Xu Zhou went to his preparation room to start preparing the ingredients.

In addition to the two main dishes.

Tea-soaked rice has become very popular lately, so this dish is definitely a must-have.

I also need to prepare the newly learned fried steak rice bowl.

Prepare another dish: Sichuan peppercorn-roasted mackerel served with cabbage puree.

Summer is almost here.

We should take advantage of the last days of spring and offer grilled mackerel to everyone for a few more days.

Should we upgrade our store's star rating?

Xu Zhou couldn't help but ponder.

Two main dishes and three specialty dishes are still a bit too few seats.

But after upgrading it by one star, it doesn't sound as good anymore. One star is not as good as zero stars!

Even a few scattered points can hold infinite possibilities!

...

Come out with the food prepared.

While resting, Xu Zhou finally had time to check other social media platforms.

When I saw the Songnan branch of the Food Association's app, the poll on tea-soaked rice and soup-soaked rice was in full swing.

"At noon, it seems that ochazuke only had 40% of the votes."

"However, Yi Cai Yi Fan has so many fans, and most of them are office workers."

"At this point, they should have just reached the point where their votes are skyrocketing."

The voting results might be worse now than at noon.

Xu Zhou clicked in to take a look.

I was somewhat shocked when I saw the results.

Not only did the support for ochazuke (rice with tea) not drop, but it actually increased by five percent.

Despite the fact that all the comments below were from fans of the "one dish, one rice" (a type of rice dish), the number of votes for "tea-soaked rice" remained very strong.

...

Look down.

Xu Zhou then learned the reason.

This afternoon, a fan took a picture of a Songnan University student smelling beef in his own shop, and the picture was then posted online.

Many passersby were discussing it below.

[This Izakaya restaurant won first place in the food festival, and their rating even increased! Despite over 15,000 negative reviews, it rose from 2.5 to 2.7!]

[I've wanted to say this for a while now. Haven't you noticed that most of the negative reviews for Ichizuru Izakaya are for dishes from the current menu? The entire menu was changed before.]

These college students from Songnan University are like a bunch of cats attracted to catnip. Is the beef at this restaurant really that good?

Many of the comments below were from passersby who were drawn to the video and voted.

Xu Zhou's gaze, however, remained fixed on the number 2.7.

"Did the store's score increase?"

He turned on his phone, and after many days, he finally opened Meituan for the first time.

I was stunned when I opened Meituan.

Chapter 88 The Working Class Meal at the Sinkhole Shop!

The score of his store had risen from 2.5 to 2.7.

Click to open the page.

Almost all of them are comments from students at Songnan University today.

They not only gave it five stars, but also included a picture.

[Boss Xu is really amazing! I've never had such delicious ochazuke (rice with tea), and it's the first time in my life I've ever eaten king salmon...]

[Don't let the 2.7 rating fool you; it was 2.5 when I, Xiao Xu, took over! If you remove the negative reviews from before he took over, it's 100% positive!]

To convince everyone that the restaurant was delicious, students from Songnan University shouted their encouragement.

Some even included their student ID in the photo.

I just flipped through it casually.

Xu Zhou immediately noticed a very eye-catching comment.

Although Mr. Xu's restaurant has limited servings of other dishes, he has tons of rice balls! Since we can't afford the other dishes anyway, we definitely want everyone to know how delicious this restaurant is!

I saw this.

Now I finally understand why students at Songnan University are so willing to give positive reviews.

Good guy.

It's better to sacrifice your fellow Daoist than me, right?

As Xu Zhou lay in bed after washing up, staring at the ceiling, he couldn't help but think...

This rice ball is such a great deal!

A rice ball that you don't have to lift a finger to make.

Not only did he gain fame at Songnan University, but he also gained a group of student fans willing to give him five-star ratings!

Blood earned!

...

the next day.

Xu Zhou slept until the sun was high in the sky.

When I woke up, it was already noon.

As soon as you turn on your phone.

The unread message caused my phone to freeze for a full minute.

"..."

I don't know when I was added to the Songnan University group.

Fortunately, I had turned on Do Not Disturb mode before going to bed, so I didn't hear the 999+ chat messages in the group.

"What are you talking about that's all this time?"

Xu Zhou opened the package and glanced at it while brushing his teeth.

Hey!

They actually took pictures!

Although it was only for one day, Songnan University immediately replaced the signboard on a previously reserved spot.

Pretty good looking.

He doesn't need to manage it himself; the only requirement is that he doesn't raise prices arbitrarily.

For Xu Zhou, this was not even a requirement.

...

The whole group was talking about rice balls.

I was so happy with what I bought that I took pictures to show off.

Those who couldn't buy it were so angry they started cursing in the street.

[I thought I was early enough by queuing at 6 AM, you bastards! Who the hell went at 5 AM?]

[Even though there's a limit of six per person, are you crazy to buy all six? Are you trying to eat a pound and two ounces of rice balls first thing in the morning?]

【What's wrong? Who told you not to line up earlier? I was happy to eat six, three in the morning and three at noon.】

Even Xu Zhou was amazed by his crazy behavior.

"These rice balls are being snapped up really fast."

"No, I have to make my parents happy."

After brushing his teeth, he shared these photos with his parents.

really.

Not long after we finished sharing, we heard my mother's joyful scream coming from the living room.

"Old Xu!"

"Old Xu, come quick! Xiao Zhou's rice balls are selling really well!"

"Everyone's grabbing it!"

"Everyone's scrambling to buy! Those who can't get their hands on anything are getting upset! And this store is beautiful too!"

Upon hearing this, Xu Yi was overjoyed. He even forgot to put on his shoes and jumped off the sofa wearing only a pair of socks.

"Let me see! Let me see!"

The two heads came together.

Seeing how well their handmade rice balls were selling in the pictures, I felt a sense of accomplishment.

These are all rice balls they packaged using the machine on the small boat!

"Two thousand five hundred is not enough!"

"If you ask me, there's an industrial park nearby! If we make three thousand more, we can help our son sell the rice balls in the park!"

“The industrial park is full of companies. If we sell these rice balls there, they’ll definitely sell well! It can also help my son expand his customer base!”

The two were engaged in a lively discussion.

They even have a roadmap for how to expand their rice ball business.

For example, we should first secure Songnan University.

After finalizing the industrial park project.

The more he talked, the more excited he became.

Xu Zhou's lips twitched when he heard what they were saying.

My level of dedication is nothing compared to my parents'!

Parents are the real workaholics!

They all tried to sell the rice balls to the industrial park.

...

the other side.

noon.

At noon, when it was time for lunch, Liu Feng's team was discussing where to go for lunch.

"Team leader, what do you think?"

"There don't seem to be any good restaurants around here."

"I feel that the cheapest and most affordable options are Brother Li's Simple Meals and the small stir-fry shop downstairs from our company."

"I can do it."
