I'm speechless! You want me to drive a baby stroller on the highway to survive?

Chapter 232 includes multiple recipes.



Chapter 232 includes multiple recipes.

[Huang Jiaqi: What? Are you out of your mind? Gu Jingchen sells shrimp for only 8 gold coins a serving, but your processing fee is 8 gold coins, and we even have to provide the shrimp ourselves.]

[Li Shan: Upstairs, I want to ask you, who stopped you from buying Gu Jingchen's food? You wanted something with a better flavor but didn't want to spend any gold coins. How can you be so shameless?]

[Zhao Yuan: That's right. It's not just Lu Youyou selling shrimp now. Gu Jingchen sells them, and other individual survivors are selling them too. They have high, medium, and low price ranges. Just choose the one that suits your abilities.]

[Hu Qiang: I don't know if you've ever tried the braised prawns sold by Lu Youyou, but they're really different from what others sell. It's like the difference between a chef's signature dish and an ordinary side dish made by a regular person.]

【…】

The chat was in an uproar, but Lu Youyou had no interest in paying attention.

Her private messages have exploded, with far more people asking about her than the number of people who originally bought the braised prawns.

At first, Lu Youyou read and replied to the chat history herself, but later her eyes got tired of reading it all, so she directly asked Xiao Lu to reply to customers who wanted other dishes to be processed because there wasn't enough time.

As for asking her to process braised prawns, Lu Youyou first checked the amount and quantity of prawns they wrote on the transaction application.

Once everything is confirmed to be correct, accept all applications with one click to receive the supplies.

Large river shrimp (per jin) * 49

Small river shrimp (per jin) * 69

Large prawns (per jin) * 24

Small shrimp (per jin) * 35

Perhaps because the resources are gamified, the sizes of the shrimp are easy to distinguish; they are either small or large, and there are no other shapes.

This greatly facilitated Lu Youyou, as she no longer needed to process each person's shrimp separately; she could directly put shrimp of the same size into the [Food Factory].

One minute later, the river shrimp was ready.

Lu Youyou instructed Xiao Lu to distribute the shrimp to the relevant customers and then put the small river shrimp into the [Food Factory].

……

With Xiao Lu's help, Lu Youyou completed the order in less than five minutes.

I earned 1416 gold coins.

However, she had run out of seasonings.

Lu Youyou knew that her current actions had made her quite famous on the public chat, and if she searched for seasonings on the public chat, she would likely be ripped off.

Therefore, she doesn't want to collect supplies on the public chat unless absolutely necessary.

She opened the [Affection] list, found the monster merchant, and chatted with him privately.

[Lu Youyou: Hi my friend, do you have any seasonings and cooking oil? I need some seasonings right now.]

It's probably because the favorability rating is full, or maybe the monster merchant is on vacation and has a lot of free time.

In short, it replied instantly.

[Monster Merchant: Yes, I've just received a new shipment. What specific types of oil and seasonings do you need?]

Lu Youyou thought about the nature of the food factory; as she entered more and more recipes, the variety of seasonings she would need would also increase.

[Lu Youyou: I'll accept as many kinds as you have.]

[Monster Merchant: Alright, I have salty seasonings, sugary seasonings, sour seasonings, spicy seasonings, and so on. Each major category has more than 100 jin of each subcategory, and cooking oils such as peanut oil and soybean oil also exceed 100 jin each. How about I sell it all to you in one go?]

[Lu Youyou: Is it expensive?]

[Monster Merchant: You're my friend, so I'll tell you the truth. I bought these items for 5 gold coins and expect to sell them for 10 gold coins.]

Lu Youyou opened her backpack to check her gold coin count. After selling supplies to gold coin merchants, robbing others, and doing business, she now had 149117 gold coins.

Although she could afford it, Lu Youyou was still a little reluctant to spend 100,000 gold coins on seasonings all at once.

hum~

[Monster Merchant: You're my friend, and I promised you a 50% discount on everything in my shop, but you can't stop me from making money, so here's the whole thing for you, 75,000.]

Gold coins can be stolen again, but once the seasonings are gone, no matter how many recipes she has, it's useless.

Since you've decided to do business, you'll always have to pay costs.

Lu Youyou gritted her teeth, made up her mind, and bought it!

Looking at the various seasonings in her backpack, including some that Lu Youyou had never tried before, her previously stingy heart suddenly brightened.

This is the satisfaction that comes from hoarding. You grit your teeth when you buy it, but feel incredibly satisfied once it's yours.

However, because of these extra seasonings, her backpack was almost full, and she wouldn't be able to fit anything in it in the future.

She then sought out the monster merchant to buy a golden treasure chest.

[Monster Merchant: Monsters don't need golden treasure chests; those are for humans. I don't have any here. You can buy them from humans.]

Lu Youyou sighed. It was possible to take it back, but the problem was that she couldn't.

By this stage of the game, almost everyone has a disassembler.

Forget about golden treasure chests, nobody's even giving away red treasure chests.

If you get a treasure chest, you can break it down into fragments to boost your own resources. Who would be foolish enough to sell it to someone else and make their weapon more powerful?

Just as Lu Youyou was about to rummage through her backpack, the monster merchant sent her another message.

[Monster Merchant: I have backpack slot expansion cards here, each one expands your inventory by 100 slots, costing 10000 gold coins each, but that's only 5000 gold coins for you. Do you want them?]

[Monster Merchant: By the way, you need to make a decision quickly. I have 10 tickets here, but other friends have already reserved three, so you only have seven left to buy.]

Seven cards would be 35,000.

But we can't do without the expansion card.

You only realize how little money you have when you need it!

[Lu Youyou: I'll take all seven.]

[Monster Merchant: Sorry, friend, I just sold two. You can buy five more.]

Upon seeing this, Lu Youyou disregarded the cost of the coins and bought the remaining five.

After obtaining the backpack slot expansion card, Lu Youyou used it all, increasing the number of slots to 1115.

hum~

Your friend Zhang Weimin has sent you a gift. Please check your message promptly.

Lu Youyou opened the backpack compartment.

Spicy rabbit head *1

【Spicy Rabbit *1】

Braised rabbit meat *1

[Dapanji (Big Plate Chicken) *1]

[Beer-roasted chicken *1]

[Fried chicken *1]

Yang Yan was right; Zhang Weimin's dish was indeed a real showstopper.

Lu Youyou placed the vegetables in one by one and scanned them with the [Food Factory].

After entering all the recipes, Lu Youyou sent them to Zhang Weimin.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Weimin sent the dishes back, along with a message.

[Zhang Weimin: I'm old enough to not deprive myself. I already set aside what I wanted to eat before plating it for you, so there's no need to give it to me.]

Since he said that, Lu Youyou wouldn't turn it around for him.

However, you still need to give them the gold coins to buy recipes.

Yang Yan initially provided her with the ingredients and recipes, giving her 200 gold coins in return. Now, thinking it was a bit stingy, he gave her another 1000 gold coins.

[Yang Yan: ? What? Did you make a lot of money?]

[Lu Youyou: The previous 200 was a share of the profits from the candied hawthorn sales. This 1000 is to buy out your recipe. Don't sell it to anyone else.]

Yang Yan: Even if you don't give me this 1000, I won't sell it to anyone else. We're not just teammates, we're friends too.

Yang Yan: Okay, I won't bother you anymore. You must be very busy right now. I'll take the money. Bye.

Lu Youyou closed the chat with Yang Yan and sent Xiao Liu another 1200 gold coins, still using the same message.

Xiao Liu was so frightened that he thought Lu Youyou was targeting him, and he almost teleported over to promise that he would be absolutely loyal to the team.

He was only relieved after Lu Youyou explained that Yang Yan had also taken it.

Finally, Lu Youyou gave Zhang Weimin 6000 gold coins.

He didn't provide any raw materials; he just paid him to buy out the recipe.

Zhang Weimin did not refuse, only saying that he would study more recipes and make a lot of money for Lu Youyou.
