Chapter 65: Bringing Your Own Ingredients

Inside the gourmet shop.

Stark waved his hand, immediately transferring five hundred taels of gold to each person.

To a billionaire like him, a mere five hundred taels of gold was nothing he would take to heart.

"Amitabha, one should not be rewarded without merit. As for these five hundred taels of gold, this old monk thinks we should let it go!"

Yue Buqun on the side was still considering, while Abbot Xuan Ci of the Shaolin Temple pressed his palms together and spoke.

A mere five hundred taels of gold, and they wanted to make the Shaolin Temple forget!

You must be dreaming!

Why don't you go out and ask around; they are the bald donkeys of Shaolin!

"One thousand taels!"

As Xuan Ci’s words fell, Stark waved his hand again, announcing a price of one thousand taels of gold.

In this day and age, is there anything that cannot be solved with money?

It is just that you haven't given enough.

"Amitabha, my Shaolin is a righteous sect of renown, how could..."

"Two thousand taels!"

"Benefactor, you are tarnishing the reputation of my Shaolin. My Shaolin has a heritage of hundreds of years of reputation..."

"Five thousand taels!"

"What the benefactor says is reasonable. On behalf of Shaolin, this old monk deeply agrees!"

Abbot Xuan Ci pressed his palms together and uttered a Buddhist chant.

Such a scene left everyone present stunned.

Damn, these Shaolin bald donkeys are too shameless.

You were so righteous just a moment ago, how did you change so quickly at the end?

Damn it, is this still the Shaolin Temple they held in their hearts?

Yue Buqun, who had been hesitating, was completely dumbfounded.

Zhang Sanfeng, on the other hand, looked as if he had seen through it all along and remained silent.

Enjoying the gazes of the crowd, Abbot Xuan Ci remained calm and composed.

A few measly gazes like this were nothing at all.

What did you think he relied on to become the Abbot of Shaolin?

Tang San, a novice just starting out, watched this scene with his eyes wide open.

He had seen shameless people, but this was the first time he had seen someone this shameless.

Among the crowd, only Stark did not care in the slightest at this moment.

A mere five thousand taels of gold; to him, it was only twenty million dollars.

He could earn it back in minutes.

Besides, this time, he wanted to take that watermelon juice back.

He figured such a small amount of wealth could be earned back very quickly.

For a moment, inside the gourmet shop, everyone was struck with selective amnesia by the heavy gold Stark had thrown down.

Did anything happen just now?

Clearly not!

At least, they knew nothing.

And among the crowd, Ying Zheng watched this scene with great interest.

To him, gold was just an external possession; he did not care about it at all.

What he cared about was his own lifespan and strength.

After this stunt by Stark, the crowd's attitude toward him improved.

After all, they were all future customers; there was no need for their relationship to be so poor.

Of course, they would not admit it was because of money.

They were all good people with pure hearts.

As for Stark, after receiving the gourmet food, he began to eat heartily.

Having experienced the deliciousness of the egg fried rice and beef noodles last time.

Stark was eating very happily at this moment.

As for the watermelon juice, Stark had it packed up.

Inside the gourmet shop.

The crowd’s food was quickly wiped clean, and many licked their lips, still wanting more.

Just as they were preparing to leave, they saw Tang San walking toward Su Mu.

"Shopkeeper, I would like to ask, can friends be brought here together?"

Tang San, who had been waiting for a long time, finally asked this question.

The members of the Shi Laike Seven Devils were still waiting for his gourmet food.

But with only him alone, the speed was too slow.

Therefore, Tang San wanted to know if he could bring others in with him.

Hearing Tang San's words, Su Mu's eyes lit up instantly.

Look at this, this is what you call a good fat sheep!

Not only is he being fleeced here himself.

He even wants to drag his friends over to be fleeced by him.

Could Su Mu refuse such a heaven-sent opportunity?

Of course he could not refuse!

Unfortunately, his level was not high enough, and the system would not allow it!

"Not for the time being!"

Like Tang San, Yue Buqun, Zhang Sanfeng, Ying Zheng, and others who were thinking of bringing people in.

Hearing Su Mu shake his head, they immediately felt a bit disappointed.

They had also wanted to ask this question that Tang San had just posed.

It had just been snatched by Tang San.

As a result, hearing the answer that it was not allowed, they could not help but feel a sense of loss.

Just as he was about to leave, Tang San hesitated for a moment and asked a second question.

"Shopkeeper, I would like to ask, can the ingredients here be provided by oneself?"

As the question was asked again, this time, it was Su Mu who was slightly stunned.

Provide his own ingredients?

This was something Su Mu really hadn't thought of.

Su Mu could not help but ask directly in his mind.

"System, can customers provide their own ingredients?"

Su Mu was truly quite surprised by this request from Tang San.

"Ding, yes, but the current gourmet shop level is insufficient to complete custom-made dishes!"

The system's prompt sounded, and the next moment, a stream of information flooded into Su Mu's mind.

After reading the information, Su Mu understood.

Tang San could bring his own ingredients, but because the gourmet shop only had egg fried rice and beef noodles at the moment.

Therefore, the ingredients Tang San brought could only be added to these two dishes.

Only when the gourmet shop level was higher could Su Mu help customers make custom dishes.

"System, since it can be customized later, why make it so troublesome now!"

Thinking that it could be customized later anyway, Su Mu could not help but haggle with the system.

But the system was the system after all, and it was stubborn.

Su Mu eventually lost the battle.

"Yes, but they can only be added to the egg fried rice and beef noodles!"

Nodding toward Tang San, Su Mu added a sentence.

"Additionally, there will be an extra fee for bringing your own ingredients!"

This point was also stipulated by the system.

Instead, Su Mu looked at the fee and could only say that the system’s heart was too black.

It was another sky-high price!

"Phew..."

Inside the gourmet shop, hearing Su Mu’s rare nod, everyone’s faces lit up with joy.

Ying Zheng was the first to think of his thousand-year-old ginseng that he had treasured for many years.

Since he could bring his own ingredients, next time, he could put the ginseng in.

In that case, he wondered what kind of effect the gourmet food cooked by the hands of an immortal would have.

There were quite a few people who had the same thought as Ying Zheng at this moment.

After nodding, Su Mu felt a slight sense of curiosity.

It is strange; why would Tang San suddenly think of bringing his own ingredients now?

Is he planning to take the meat of a spirit beast and cook it for himself?

I wonder which spirit beast is so unlucky as to have offended Tang San.

Tsk tsk, deep down, Su Mu could not help but sigh for that spirit beast.

Just as Su Mu was sighing, Tang San, who was beside him, let out a deep breath and could not help but mutter to himself.

"It's good that I can bring my own; Titan Giant Ape, just you wait!"
