The first food stall in the wasteland

Chapter 69 Two Uninvited Guests

Shen Lu yawned and ignored Bai Wanwan's question.

They were all talking about tigers and wolves, and people who didn't know the truth thought she had an unclear relationship with Bai Lei.

God knows what these two siblings were thinking about at home.

After serving the stewed meat, Shen Lu stewed a pot of rice, when there were very slight footsteps outside, she guessed it was Cai Su.

I looked through the window and saw that it was indeed her.

Shen Lu opened the door and said to Cai Su, "I may have to go later today. I still have some work to do."

"It's okay. How about I go over first? Boss Shen, you can come over after you're done."

"Have you had breakfast yet?"

Cai Su nodded. She had eaten a worm cake in the morning.

Probably because of the good food last night, the insect pancakes this morning were particularly hard to swallow. Cai Su swallowed them hard and secretly criticized herself in her heart.

Xiao Lang's health was not yet good, and she actually started to be picky about food. It was really inappropriate.

Shen Lu glanced at Cai Su's sallow face and asked her to come in.

"I just made a pot of braised food, and you can help me taste it to see if it's salty enough."

This is just an excuse. She knows that Cai Su will not accept it for no reason. Only with a suitable reason can she feel at ease.

Cai Su didn't have too much doubt, took the chicken leg and took a bite.

The chicken was tender, juicy, and full of flavor. She originally only wanted to take a bite, but unknowingly she gnawed the entire chicken leg clean.

Cai Su: Σ(°△°|||)
Shen Lu's craftsmanship is so good, no wonder the business is getting better and better day by day.

If she were a guest, as long as she had eaten Shen Lu's delicious food once, she would want to eat it a second time, a third time...

"I'm sorry, Boss Shen, I've finished all the chicken legs." Cai Su said sheepishly.

"I can't sell the chicken legs you took a bite to to customers." Shen Lu smiled, "How does it taste? Do you think there is anything that needs to be improved?"

"It's delicious!" The charming meaty aroma still seemed to remain in his mouth. Cai Su swallowed, "I don't think there is anything to improve."

"it is good."

Shen Lu nodded, "From now on, you have to help me taste it more often. This is called food tasting."

Do you often eat it?

Does this mean that I can often eat the delicious food cooked by Boss Shen?

Cai Su couldn't control her expression, and her eyes burst out with bright joy.

"I-I will definitely taste it with all my heart!"

After eating the chicken legs, Cai Su felt that she had unlimited energy. She picked up the tools for picking up garbage and set off to the garbage dump first and proudly.

"Boss Shen, don't come in a hurry, I will definitely find a lot of garbage for you!"

Shen Lu didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He turned on the good and evil judgment device and took a look. The heart on Cai Su's head seemed to be redder than before.

Shen Lu touched his chin and asked the system: "Cai Su is so kind to me, does it mean that she is very loyal to me?"

[To a certain extent, it can be judged this way, but it is not unique. 】

Shen Lu: "You mean, there is still a possibility that she will betray me?"

[Host, human nature cannot be generalized. It can change anytime and anywhere. 】

[However, Cai Su should not betray the host. ] Shen Lu: "She'd better not have such thoughts, otherwise I can't guarantee that I will do something."

After the rice was simmered, Shen Lu blanched the chicken legs, marinated them in the brine, and then went out to the garbage dump.

Cai Su, who was very motivated, had already picked up a lot of things. Shen Lu went over to dismantle the parts one by one and look for valuable metals inside.

Today's harvest was average, including a finger-sized copper block, a few silver flakes, and two tungsten wires.

Seeing that it was almost time, Shen Lu asked Cai Su to go back and prepare the ingredients for the stall.

The two of them were busy for half an hour, loading some of the ingredients onto the food truck, and temporarily placing the other parts in the rental house until they were used up.

[Ding dong~ Release task: Please sell 70 cups of mint water, 60 egg waffles, 60 portions of spicy hotpot, 60 portions of fried rice, 60 portions of fried noodles, and 30 portions of braised food. 】

Big Wang came a little late today, panting.

"I'm sorry, Boss Shen, there's a lot going on today."

"It's okay. Have more people died recently?" Shen Lu asked.

Mr. Wang nodded: "Yes, I don't know what the situation is. Where I live, two families, two large families, about ten people, all died in one night."

Shen Lu was silent, "Have you not found out the reason yet?"

"We have some clues." Wang Daguo pushed the food truck, "After all, thousands of people died in just a few days. People in Xiacheng District are panicked. In order to appease the people, the superiors are doing their best to investigate."

"What's the result?" Cai Su couldn't help interjecting.

"It is said that I ate the wrong thing and was poisoned." Wang Da gave a wry smile, "The superiors urged us not to eat Sanwu insect cakes, but to eat the official insect cakes, which are safe and non-toxic. They said that the insects made by Sanwu workshop The cake is poisonous.”

"The price of the insect cakes sold by the official is so uneconomical. For the same price, you can get two more pounds elsewhere." Cai Su frowned and complained, obviously not agreeing with the official method.

This is more like the statement given by the people at the bottom, and by the way, they also shirk their own responsibility, and attribute this large-scale death incident to their own fault.

Shen Lu is not a native of the area. Although he has killed a few bad guys, most of the people here are relatively indifferent, but he still feels panicked when he hears these things.

Those people who think they are superior citizens really don't regard the people in the lower city as human beings.

From the fact that they recycle the dead bodies here and use them as fertilizer, it can be seen that the people living in the lower city are just backup nutrients to maintain their lives.

"Alas." Big Wang sighed, pushed the snack cart to its place, and went to move Fucheng again.

The money was still settled together in the afternoon, and Mr. Wang couldn't wait to say a complete farewell to Shen Lu, so he hurried away.

Today's sun was extremely strong, Shen Lu rested his fingers on the brow bone and looked at the dazzling sunlight, feeling a little indescribably sad.

If only she could do something.

But if you think about it carefully, there is nothing she can do except give away some supplies for free.

However, Shen Lu felt that this was just a temporary solution, not the root cause, and she didn't have that many assets to give away.

Forget it, being poor means being alone. If she wants to help the world, she must get rich first.

The little deer gourmet stall opened, and the gluttons who were eager to smell the aroma lined up neatly, exchanging the star coins in their hands for pieces of delicious food.

Shen Lu looked at the satisfied expressions on the faces of the diners, and his originally depressed mood gradually improved.

But soon, the arrival of two uninvited guests made her unhappy.

A semi-old black car stopped by the stall, and the car window rolled down, revealing a girl with exquisite makeup.

Her voice was neither loud nor quiet, just enough for Shen Lu to hear.

"Oh my God, Shen Lu, it's really you!"
