Chapter 103: A Chance Encounter with Ning Rongrong

~8 min read 1,586 words

Xiao Wu, Zhuqing, and Lingling were finally satisfied after finishing their clothes shopping.

In the evening, the group looked for a restaurant with a large crowd, intending to have a big meal.

Many people were queuing at the entrance of the restaurant, a bit like the trendy restaurants from a past life.

The reason this shop was famous was because the chef was very unique; this chef's martial soul was a book.

Originally, everyone thought he was an auxiliary-type Spirit Master, but the result was different after he absorbed his first Spirit Ring.

He was a commoner Spirit Master who graduated from the Spirit Hall Academy; his first Spirit Ring was absorbed from a 300-year-old Saber-Toothed Pig, and he did not gain any spirit skill, which puzzled a group of teachers at the time.

Finally, when he summoned his martial soul, the name was displayed directly on the first page of the book martial soul: Recipe.

Others saw nothing when checking his martial soul, but he himself saw related recipes for pork on the Recipe; there were one hundred types of pork recipes alone, and he said himself that he needed to finish making all one hundred of these recipes, and then new recipes would appear.

Then, a strange scene appeared in the Spirit Hall; a person was cooking in the open air in the square, with many people queuing behind him waiting for food.

Every dish he made had a special effect after being eaten; some could increase cultivation speed by 10% for one hour, some could increase strength by 10% for one hour, some could increase soul power by 10% for one hour, and many other strange functions appeared. Although it was not a permanent increase, the effect was quite good, and it tasted delicious too.

So later, he cooked every day; he didn't need to worry about ingredients, as many people were willing to contribute ingredients just for a bite to eat.

In the process of cooking, his soul power also increased very quickly; by the time he graduated, he was already a Soul King, and his first five Spirit Rings were from a pig, chicken, cow, sheep, and goose, respectively.

These five Spirit Rings of his were found through the painstaking efforts of many people; they needed to be common and have sufficient age, especially the fifth Spirit Ring, the goose, which took a full month to find. The Sunset Forest was turned upside down, and finally, a Snowy Ice Goose was found in the Extreme North Plains. Forty or fifty Spirit Masters escorted it all the way back to Wuhun City; the procession was so grand that people who didn't know better thought some major event had occurred.

Although it was only over ten thousand years old, among the one hundred dishes unlocked by the Ten-Thousand-Year Spirit Ring, ten dishes added permanent attributes. Although they didn't add much, and it was only effective for each Spirit Master the first time they ate it, this still made many people scramble to eat them.

When his recipes reached one hundred, the attribute increase lasted one hour; at one thousand, it increased to two hours. After several years, only the first Spirit Ring had reached ten thousand, and now the attribute increase lasted three hours. After three hours, one could continue to consume them, so many people didn't eat the food directly after buying it, but kept it in their rings to eat when needed.

However, this news also reached the ears of Jerry. For many people who had cultivated to a high level, there was no desire for food, but Jerry was an exception; after he ate it, the first thing he thought of was opening a restaurant.

High-level Spirit Masters didn't care for it, but there were many low-level Spirit Masters, so this restaurant became a highly profitable industry. Plus, with Jerry's promotion in the newspapers, many people came for its reputation.

Jerry, taking Xiao Wu, Zhuqing, and Lingling, did not queue and walked directly toward the restaurant. He said a word to the guards maintaining order at the door and prepared to go in.

At this moment, a little girl spoke up: "Hey! Why aren't you guys queuing! Everyone is queuing, are you trying to cut in line!"

The little girl's voice immediately aroused the dissatisfaction of the other people in the queue, and they all began to discuss it!

"That's right, that's right!"

"We have all been queuing for several hours, and you people come and cut in line; do you have any manners!"

"In Wuhun City, everything must be done according to the rules. You dare to cut in line; be careful, or we will go report you to the Patrol Team."

"That's right, go back and queue!"

At this time, Jerry and the others were a little embarrassed. Jerry turned his head to look at the girl who had spoken first: a light blue princess dress, the latest style from the Spirit Hall clothing store, about 1.65 meters tall, with a very well-proportioned figure. Her temperament was noble and refined, looking like a well-educated noble young lady, as if she were a warm spring breeze, and her soft smile infected everyone around her. At first glance, it was easy to be deceived by her appearance, but the corners of her mouth were slightly upturned, looking a bit like a conspiracy had succeeded.

The little witch Ning Rongrong, so it was her; no wonder she was so bold. No one else had spoken, but she was the first to open her mouth.

Zhuqing knew Ning Rongrong, but for some reason, she hid behind Xiao Wu and Lingling and did not greet Ning Rongrong.

"Everyone, listen to me. I don't know when queuing became necessary to enter one's own shop. When did Wuhun City have this rule? How come I don't know about it?" After Jerry finished speaking, he revealed a smile, staring at Ning Rongrong.

Hearing Jerry say it was his own shop, the others stopped making noise.

At this time, Ning Rongrong obviously hadn't expected Jerry to say this at first, and she was a little embarrassed, but the little witch's personality wouldn't let her just admit defeat like that.

"You say it's your own shop; who in Wuhun City doesn't know that this shop belongs to the Spirit Hall, and there is even a Spirit Hall logo on the door. Don't look for such a lame excuse for cutting in line, okay!" Ning Rongrong retorted.

"Then how do you know that the one with the Spirit Hall logo isn't mine?" Jerry asked.

"If it has a Spirit Hall logo, it's yours? There are so many places in Wuhun City with the Spirit Hall logo, why don't you say they are all yours!"

"I don't know if other Spirit Hall properties have the logo, but my shops indeed all have this logo."

"Who do you think you are? If it has this logo, it's yours? Are you the Saint Son of the Spirit Hall?"

This, Jerry really wasn't the Saint Son of the Spirit Hall. This logo was specially designed by Jerry. In his past life, many brands had their own logos, so Jerry specially created one, mainly for brand effect, to let more people remember it.

Previously, the Spirit Hall was developing vigorously, and many places lacked money, so Jerry started many industries himself. Although they were all under the name of the Spirit Hall, in reality, these were all Jerry's private industries. At the time, Jerry had also told the Great Elder that the current income would be used to develop the Spirit Hall, and once it was on the right track in the future, the income would be returned to Jerry, so it was not wrong to say these shops were Jerry's.

"Although I am not the Saint Son of the Spirit Hall, this shop is truly mine. I can have the general manager of this shop come down and tell you!" After Jerry finished speaking, he directly made a call using his Soul Guidance Watch.

Seeing Jerry take out the Soul Guidance Watch, Ning Rongrong was already a little less suspicious. After all, this Soul Guidance Watch was not something everyone had now; only the high-level officials of the Spirit Hall and some managers of Spirit Hall shops had them, and others really had no channels to purchase them.

However, Jerry's original intention for making this Soul Guidance Watch was to create a smart Mobile Phone, but people in this world often fought, and mobile phones were inconvenient to carry, so he created this Soul Guidance Watch, which did not affect combat and could be used to order takeout. When there was something to do, calling directly was much faster than needing someone to deliver messages before.

Soon, many people came down from the restaurant, led by the general manager of the restaurant. Seeing Jerry in front of the door, he was a little panicked and hurried over.

"Lord Jerry, Lord Xiao Wu, Lord Ye Lingling, Lord Zhuqing, this subordinate has handled things poorly; I did not expect the few Lords to arrive in person. The Title Box has already been arranged for you, please come in!" the general manager said.

"Hello! There is a misunderstanding today that needs to be explained, otherwise we will become line-cutters! This has a bad influence; you tell them whose shop this is!" Jerry said.
