After careful consideration, Xu Le chose the name of his stall based on a food documentary he had seen in his previous life—

“Taste of China”

This was the name of Xu Le’s stall.

Even after he left the food street to open a proper restaurant in the future, Xu Le still wanted to use this name.

In this restaurant, your tongue can taste all kinds of delicacies from all over China.

Xu Le had the “Strongest Master Chef System”, so the recipe in the system was not restricted to any particular cuisine.

There are eight major Chinese cuisines: Shandong, Sichuan, Cantonese, Jiangsu, Min, Zhejiang, Hunan, and Hui.

Other than that, there were Hong Kong cuisine, Taiwan cuisine, and many other delicacies that were not included.

Among the 9.6 million square kilometers land area of China, Xu Le was able to obtain a perfect recipe from the system for any type of cuisine.

Hence, Xu Le’s shop naturally couldn’t be called “authentic Oil Doused Noodles” or “authentic Sichuan Cuisine”.

Since the dishes included all the delicacies in China.

Then why not just call it “Taste of China”!



September 3, Saturday.

Hongxing Food Street.

Since it was the weekend, the food street was already packed with people. Everywhere one looked, there was a black mass of people, causing people to feel suffocated.

However, this street was exceptionally lively. All the snacks from all over the world were gathered and sold here.

All kinds of fragrances mixed together in the air, and the pleasant sounds of cooking utensils clashing filled the ears.

Among the many shops, there was a small stall that had just opened.

The stall wasn’t big, only about five square meters. There was also a small table and four small stools.

Xu Le dismantled his push cart and remodeled it into a new stove.

A signboard was erected at the entrance of the stall—”Taste of China”.

Beside it was written—

Today’s menu: 12 RMB for Oil Doused Noodles, 8 RMB for Tomato Egg Soup, 20 RMB for Kung Pao Chicken.

Other than that, everything else was simple.

Since it was Saturday, Xu Tian did not need to go to kindergarten. Hence, Xu Le brought her along.

“Hopefully there’s a good start on the first day of business!”

Xu Le stretched and prepared to start the day’s work.

In this busy food street, amidst the smoke, Xu Le’s shop finally opened for business.

“It’s the authentic Oil Doused Noodles. Don’t miss it as you walk by!”

Xu Le imitated some of the television dramas he had watched in his previous life and shouted at the passers-by.

“Tomato egg soup. If it’s not good, it’s free!”

“Kung Pao Chicken, definitely the best Kung Pao Chicken you’ve ever tasted!”

Xu Le had learned all of this shouting from the movies he watched.

“I don’t know if it’s useful…” Xu Le was still muttering to himself.

“Wouldn’t I be embarrassed if it didn’t work?”

But Xu Le was obviously overthinking.

It was very rare for an eight-year-old child to bring his three-year-old sister out to set up a stall.

In the society, people would not be interested in things that they were used to.

But if it was something they had never seen before…

Then they would be paying much attention to it!

Seeing such a strange combination appearing on the food street, many pedestrians quickly came over to take a look.

“Hubby, look, there’s a little kid selling food over there!”

“Taste of China? How dare they come up with such a resounding name?”

“They should be the children of the stall owner. How could they set up a stall at such a young age?”

“These two children are so good-looking. If only our children could be so cute in the future.”

“Oil doused noodles? Kung Pao chicken? Can a child’s food be good?”

“How about… a taste? It’s not expensive, anyway.”

“…”

More and more people gathered around and started to chatter among themselves.

Xu Le was not disturbed at all.

Although he had officially opened his shop, many ingredients were not prepared yet.

It would take at least half an hour to start selling.

He had to knead the dough…

They were all extremely familiar steps. However, Xu Le had prepared a lot of flour this time. It would be sufficient to prepare at least a few hundred bowls.

Leavening the noodles required half an hour. During this time, Xu Le planned to make a pot of tomato egg soup.

This was truly a very simple dish.

After a day of training in the system space, Xu Le had already mastered it to a very high level.

He chopped the corriander into pieces and diced the tomatoes.

He boiled water in a pot and placed the tomatoes inside.

Two to three minutes later, the tomatoes softened, and the taste of the tomatoes entered the water.

At this moment, he needed to mix some starch.

Xu Le took out an empty bowl. He added 60 grams of corn starch, 250 grams of water, and stirred them evenly.

After all, he was opening a shop now, so he needed to prepare a huge amount.

While cooking the soup, a gossipy lady started to interact with Xu Le.

“How old are you?”

“Where do you go to school?”

“What grade are you in?”

“Why did you come out to set up a stall?”

“What do parents do?”

“How much can you earn in a day?”

“Where did you learn how to cook?”

The auntie’s mouth was like a machine gun. She had all kinds of questions that was completely non-exhaustive.

Xu Le didn’t reply and just quietly cooked.

From the start to the end, he kept his mouth tightly shut. Those who did not know would think that this child was a mute.

Xu Le finally heaved a sigh of relief after the lady left.

He knew these aunties too well.

As long as he replied to her that day, this auntie would be able to find out about all eight generations of his ancestors. It would take at least an hour or two to send her away..
