Han Guishan wanted Qin Huai to stay in City A a couple more days, not to make more snacks, but simply to entertain Qin Huai and let him enjoy himself for a few days. Qin Huai declined.
He still needed to return to Huishan City to slice radishes.
It was inconvenient to slice radishes in City A, and he could only manage to slice for a short time each day, while being watched by Zang Liang. Whether it was for the hungry residents of Yunzhong District or for the purpose of persisting and diligently practicing his knife skills, Qin Huai wanted to return to Shan City as quickly as possible.
In the evening, Cheng Gong came to the hotel alone to find Qin Huai and continue the conversation from noon.
Cheng Gong’s obsession was clarified, but the recipe hadn’t been given, nor had the gift been presented. While Qin Huai was wrapping Four Happiness glutinous rice balls and practicing knife skills, Cheng Gong was chatting a lot in the ’One Big Happy Family’ group chat, and had pieced together the basic rules that spirits must give part of their inheritance to Qin Huai upon awakening.
Qin Huai was bewildered: ?
Really, who formulated this basic rule?
Why does Qu Jing seem to believe it with such conviction, seriously explaining it to Cheng Gong in the group, and Cheng Gong actually bought it.
Seriously, did Qin Huai really think of himself as someone eager to inherit a spirit’s legacy?
Well, maybe a little.
Cheng Gong, with an annual salary of 7 million, let Qu Jing maintain the title of the poorest spirit.
As an excellent assistant, Cheng Gong knew well that Qin Huai wasn’t someone who liked small talk or politeness. Carrying Qin Huai’s favorite snacks, beverages, and fruits, he entered the hotel room, sat down, handed Qin Huai a banana, and got straight to the point.
"This afternoon, I seriously searched through my memory,"
"Let’s not talk about my sudden death at 30 in the second life for now, but in my first life, I did taste some good food while with those three bosses." Cheng Gong said.
Qin Huai exclaimed in shock: "You died suddenly in your second life?"
He didn’t mention this at all during lunch; at lunch, he only focused on the tragic working life of his first life.
"In the second life, I still retained most of the memories. My obsession at the time was to find a good boss, but what I thought then was whether it was because I wasn’t excellent or hardworking enough, so the boss would kick us, the veterans, to the curb without hesitation after his success."
"This caused me to work excessively hard during that life, leading to sudden death in my early thirties due to overwork."
Buddy, no joke, you’re normal to the point that it’s somewhat heartbreaking.
"Setting aside those irrelevant matters, I’ve picked a treat that might suit you well," Cheng Gong continued.
Qin Huai couldn’t help but straighten up when he said this.
"Qin’s Steamed Bun Shop, I saw it once in Shanghai during my first life when I was following the third boss."
Qin Huai was astounded again.
He truly didn’t expect that shop almost going bankrupt in Beiping to actually evolve into a nationwide chain. Not only had Qu Jing seen it in the provincial capital in her first life, but Cheng Gong also saw it in Shanghai in his first life.
The once-popular Taifeng Building in Beiping had waned, yet Qin’s Steamed Bun Shop had awakened.
Is this the value of pastry craft?
"I chatted privately with Miss Qu Jing and discovered we might have seen Qin’s Steamed Bun Shop around the same time; I was 4 to 5 years later than her."
"Therefore, I think you’d be very interested in this recipe."
Qin Huai nodded emphatically.
He truly was interested!
The accuracy of the guess was astonishing!
"How should I give it to you then, just tell you directly?"
"I, Cheng Gong, now wish to gift the recipe for this treat that I have in mind to Mr. Qin Huai."
As soon as Cheng Gong finished speaking, a game notification sounded in Qin Huai’s mind.
"Ding, congratulations on successfully receiving your gifted recipe; please view it in the game panel."
Qin Huai opened the game panel.
Species: Wen Yao Fish
Recipe: Green Bean Cake (Click to view details)
Gift: 50% of assets (27 million)
Hey, Cheng Gong, you’re really gifting it!
It’s not even being gifted as an inheritance.
"Oh right, I have a lifetime snack purchase contract here, and I need to trouble Mr. Qin to sign it now; I’ll transfer 27 million to your account tomorrow."
"I’ll leave my snacks for the rest of my life to you."
"Don’t worry, it’s signed according to my own appetite, not President Han’s."
