Chapter 87: Raising Little Chicks

Not only were they much smaller than the eggs she was familiar with, but the moment she took them out, the stench of poultry was so heavy it nearly made her vomit.

Furthermore, the eggshells were exceptionally soft.

With such a heavy odor just from smelling the outside, she dared not imagine how suffocating the smell inside would be once cracked open.

Still unwilling to give up, she cracked one egg; the egg white was a yellowish-green, as if it had been treated with fluorescent dye, and the yolk inside was pale and faint.

Most importantly, that smell—it wasn't the stench of a rotten egg, but rather the scent of wet chicken feathers that had been dried out, a pungent poultry odor.

It was so foul that even if cooked, it would still stink.

Her tomato scrambled eggs, her steamed egg custard, her fried eggs!!!

Without eggs, so many dishes couldn't be made!

How could it be like this?

Did the chickens go off the rails or did the eggs have a change of heart!

They were all born from chickens, so how could there be such a huge difference?

Taking another look at the appearance of the chickens on the Light Brain, she seemed to understand why these eggs were like mutations, both fishy and stinking.

The animals here, just like the people, only ate Nutrient Solution; they were skin and bones, listless, and their feathers were like those of a mangy chicken.

She was afraid these little chicks would die just from laying eggs.

Ruan Mian, harboring a skeptical attitude, still bought three little hens and one little rooster.

Although the page said they were adult chickens, their size was like that of one or two-month-old chicks, so she would feed them and see if she could raise these little chicks to look normal.

After all, many dishes could not lack eggs as an accompaniment!

Fortunately, she didn't have much else on hand, but she had plenty of vegetable leaves.

Ruan Mian used her ability to force the growth of a vine in a corner outside the eaves, and she wove the vine branches, winding them into a large circle.

As she channeled her ability, the branches became thicker and thicker, and a simple chicken coop was finished.

She took the chickens out from the Light Brain and plucked a handful of greens to scatter in the coop; in that instant, she saw a green light in the eyes of those little chicks.

With a fierce, rapid pecking, they devoured it all in a flash.

They really had been starved, the poor things.

She didn't know what kind of miserable life these Interstellar people lived, to have starved the chickens so thin.

Unable to bear it, she forced the growth of a head of Chinese cabbage and tossed it in.

Another flurry of chaos ensued.

Setting that aside for now, since she couldn't make tomato scrambled eggs and couldn't cook the greens well either, to make the Boxed Meal look better, she added one more dish: Sweet to Your Heart.

Three vegetable dishes and one serving of rice—she was practically a conscientious boss; selling it for one thousand Interstellar Coin per portion wasn't too much, right?

Ever since Ke Lin had tasted the Fried Fries and Roasted Sweet Potato last time, he had been extremely resistant to Nutrient Solution; he couldn't believe what kind of miserable life he had lived before!

Was that even food for humans?

Therefore, his greatest anticipation every day now was waiting for this boss to list new items and then rushing to grab them.

Ever since he ate the food from this shop, his back stopped aching, his legs stopped hurting, and he could climb to the fifth floor in one breath without even panting.

【Ding-dong, the shop you follow has new items, come and take a look~】

The moment he received the notification from his Light Brain, he couldn't wait to click into the shop.

The items listed today were things he had never seen before.

His hands were faster than his brain, and he clicked to order immediately.

Just like that, one thousand Interstellar Coin was spent.

This was truly the most expensive food he had ever bought.

But he didn't regret it; he believed that the items listed by this boss would absolutely, definitely not disappoint him.

Taking the white box out of the Light Brain, the moment he opened it, the aroma of a meal filled his nasal cavity.

He wanted to cry again.

*Sigh, sigh*, so fragrant, so fragrant; this was a completely different scent from the Fried Fries and Roasted Sweet Potato.

It was simply enough to make one unable to stop swallowing saliva.

He didn't know what was wrong with him; he was just hungry, wanted to eat, and it felt as if he had returned to his mother's embrace.

Carefully comparing it with the introduction on the page, he learned the names of each dish: Rich Golden Silk (stir-fried shredded potatoes), Like Fish in Water (stir-fried mushrooms), and Sweet to Your Heart (candied sweet potato).

The white one was Pearl Rice.

These dishes were not only delicious, but even their names were so pleasant; he had to say, the boss was truly amazing.

One bite made one want a second, a third, a fourth...

By the time he came to his senses, this portion of rice had been eaten up just like that.

It was gone just like that?!

His stomach was full, his belly felt warm, and even his whole body felt as if he were soaking in a hot spring, warm and cozy.

But his mouth seemed to still be hungry, wanting to eat more.

Looking at the Light Brain again, it was sold out!!!

He immediately started throwing a tantrum on the message board.

【Sob, boss, won't your conscience hurt? I haven't even had my fill yet, why is it gone?】

【Boss, just hand over all your stock, I'll give you the money, won't that work?】

【Sweet to Your Heart, it really is sweet to my heart, sob, so delicious, so delicious!!!!】

【Boss, I don't care, list some more Boxed Meals, otherwise I will really starve to death here!】

Interstellar A01 Planet, the most prosperous planet in the Interstellar; it could be said that the enterprises controlling the vast majority of the Interstellar's economic lifeline were all here.

And this place has also become the place where the dreams of Interstellar people begin.

Countless people want to come here to strike it rich.

Yun Na is also one of these busy people; she was admitted to Interstellar University with excellent grades, worked hard to graduate as an outstanding student, and entered Huo Group to work.

After working conscientiously for so many years, she became a pillar of Huo Group, earned a generous salary, and lived a good life.

All of this was earned through her own hard work.

She deserves to be honored in the Imperial Ancestral Temple!

So, she must have a good meal this noon!

It just so happens that the Advanced Boutique Sweet Set she ate last time has expired, and she is hungry.

Her focus is not very sharp either.

Let's try a different flavor this time!

Fifty thousand per serving; this price is enough to scare off quite a few people!

But who is she? Why does she, Yun Na, work hard and earn money?

Isn't it just to live a good life!

What is this little bit of money!

Buy it!

With a clatter, the hand she was about to use to pay was knocked by a great force, and her whole body fell to the side uncontrollably, but fortunately, there was a chair beside her, so she didn't fall.

"Jin Linlin, what are you doing!"

The person who bumped into her was none other than someone at the company who usually didn't get along with her.

"Sorry, okay? I didn't do it on purpose. Who told you to stand here and block the way!" Her attitude in apologizing was very poor, making one simply furious.

"You're here to deliberately pick a fight, aren't you!"

"I've already apologized to you, what else do you want? Besides, you're fine, aren't you? What a fuss!"

She tossed her hair, took out the newly released sweet-and-sour flavored Nutrient Solution from her Light Brain with great charm, and dangled it triumphantly in front of her.

"Oh my, I just bought the latest flavor by chance. I heard it's the same one as Yao Youwei's. I wonder how it tastes~"

Her tone was full of showing off, which also reminded Yun Na of her own Advanced Nutrient Solution!

"What is going on???"
