The Game of Life TGOL

Chapter 242 - 241: The Second Main Quest

Chapter 242: Chapter 241: The Second Main Quest

Jiang Feng had not expected the game to actually introduce a second main quest.

He was just about to exit the employee information and check the quest in the attribute panel. When he exited Jiang Weiming’s information, he saw his own name and thought that the quest wouldn’t grow legs and run away, so he decided to open his own information panel first.

Name: Jiang Feng

Age: 21

Position: Boss

Loyalty: 100

Skills: Knife Skills (Master Level), Lies (High Level), Fire Control (High Level), Seasoning (High Level), Management (Low Level)

Prestige (entire restaurant): 0

Employee Rating: B

Jiang Feng:…

As the true owner of Taifeng Building, whom many people were unaware of, he was not at all surprised by his current sorry state.

But after all, he was the boss. Couldn’t the game give him some credit and upgrade his employee rating to an A?

Jiang Feng exited the employee management system with an indignant face and opened the attribute panel. He was shocked to see the second mam quest. Although the game did not rate him highly, it seemed to have high expectations for him-the second main quest was actually to take on a disciple, and judging by the title, it seemed to be a series of quests.

Jiang Feng thought about it. It wasn’t a difficult task. If he could really get to the point where he could take on disciples, it would mean that his cooking skills had somewhat matured, so he decisively accepted the quest.

2. “A Garden Full of Disciples 1”: Inheritance is an important part of culinary arts Having a good disciple is crucial for a chef. Please successfully obtain a disciple who genuinely loves cooking and is willing to take you as their master.

Quest Progress (0/1)

Friendly reminder: The disciple-taking function will be unlocked at level 30.

Please work hard to level up.

Jiang Feng glanced silently at his current level, 21.

With Da Hua’s help, Jiang Feng’s experience points had indeed increased much faster recently, but he was still a long way from level 30. Since Taifeng Building had opened, he could only cook pig feed for Da Hua in the mornings and evenings. The Jiang Family fed the pig four times a day, and Jiang Feng could only manage the morning and evening feeds. Mrs. Jiang personally cooked the pig feed for the other two meals.

Moreover, every time the game updated, it would freeze, and the update speed was as slow as the internet speed when the school’s construction team accidentally cut the campus fiber-optic cable-the kind where you can’t even load pictures on Taobao. By the time Jiang Feng reached level 30 and unlocked the feature to take disciples, he might have already repaid all his debts.

Level 30 was too far off, so Jiang Feng looked at the other quests again. In fact, there were only “Sun Guanyun’s Approval” and “The Awakening of Da Hua- left. After reevaluating these four quests: the first main quest was up to fate, „ the second main quest was currently impossible, “The Awakening of Da Hua” required a long wait, and only “Sun Guanyun’s Approval” seemed feasible.

Jiang Feng had been practicing the Eight Treasures Chestnut Fragrant Pigeon for several months now. Though the taste was far from Sun Guanyun’s, it was passable. Now, he just needed Sun Guanyun to come to him voluntarily and have a taste disorder to complete the quest.

He glanced around, seeing no customers; it was safe to browse through the employee information for a bit. Jiang Feng spent more than twenty minutes skimming through all the employee data, memorizing some particularly notable individuals, before leaving the convenience store to buy milk tea for Wu

Minqi and Ji Xue.

Jiang Feng had some impressions of the kitchen staff, but for the lobby, aside from Fan Mei and Ji Yue, he didn’t know anyone. But from looking at the employee information just now, Jiang Feng was impressed by two people: one was Qi Rou, who had master-level affinity, and was the only one in the lobby staff with such a high level. Her loyalty also passed the mark, at 66.

Another person is Yang Li, who didn’t have high values in any category, except for her loyalty which was startlingly a 1.

This was the only single-digit loyalty score Jiang Feng had ever seen. Although everyone’s loyalty varied, after all, it was a newly opened restaurant and, besides Ji Yue, all employees were recently recruited so it was normal not to have much sense of belonging. Still, even the lowest among others were above 40, and Sun Jikai, as the heir of Jubao Building, had a score of 60. Only Yang Lt had a mere 1, making Jiang Feng even suspect she might be a mole from a rival restaurant.

After buying milk tea for Wu Minqi and Ji Xue from the bubble tea shop, Jiang Feng strolled back to Taifeng Building leisurely. Wang Xiulian was sitting near the entrance, busily clacking away on her favorite calculator while calculating accounts and waiting for him. As soon as she saw him returning, she immediately started complaining.

“I just asked you to buy a bag of dried lemon slices, and it took you an hour to come back. You always dawdle like this when you do things,” said Wang Xiulian as she grabbed her cup, ready to make lemon water.

“It felt a bit stuffy in the shop so I took a walk outside. Mom, why did you suddenly think of drinking lemon water?” Jiang Feng remembered that Wang Xiulian did not like sour things.

“Didn’t you see the article your aunt shared in the family group chat yesterday? Drinking lemon water is good for skin whitening and beauty. Didn’t you notice your mom has become haggard with all the work recently?” Wang Xiulian said with a sorrowful face.

Jiang Feng: …

He really hadn’t noticed; she had seemed quite radiant while doing the accounts just then.

Ji Yue was munching on something and happened to overhear Wang Xiulian’s comment. She casually remarked, “Mrs. Wang, lemon water should be drunk at night. Exposing yourself to light after drinking lemon water will darken your skin.”

Wang Xiulian paused, taken aback. “Really?

“Really!” Ji Yue said with absolute certainty.

Wang Xiulian hesitated between trusting her sister-in-law and Ji Yue, then decided to go with the internet. She patted her pocket and got up to search around.

“Eh, where’s my phone? Where did I put my phone? Has anyone seen my phone?” Wang Xiulian went off in search of her phone.

“Drinking lemon water during the day turns your skin darker?” Jiang Feng held the lemon black tea in his hand, feeling conflicted. Wu Minqi loved lemon black tea, and she hadn’t turned any darker because of it.

“I just heard it from someone else. I don’t drink lemon water myself,” Ji Yue said with the smug expression of someone enjoying gossip, noticing the two cups of milk tea in Jiang Feng’s hand. She asked, “One’s for your Qiqi, but who’s the other one for?”

“Ji Xue’s. She’s been busy all afternoon and deserves some relief,” Jiang Feng explained.

“Ah, Xue likes milk tea too? I’ve been living with her for days and thought she had no hobbies other than work. Just before opening, she was busy until eleven or twelve at night and left early every morning. How come there’s so much to do in the kitchen that a girl not even twenty years old has to be so busy?” Ji Yue began to voice her concerns for Ji Xue, “She’s like an iron woman, working nonstop every day as if she never gets tired.”

“I’ll speak to her later and tell her not to stay busy for so long every day. By the way, do you know a waitress named Yang Li?” Jiang Feng shifted to the main topic, feeling that keeping a waitress with loyalty as low as 1 in Taifeng Building wasn’t a good thing.

“Even you’ve heard about her? She was caught slacking and giving half­hearted service to guests by Manager Fan today, and when she was confronted, she had the nerve to argue. I had overheard her spouting all sorts of nonsense a few days ago, and today it seemed like a good time to settle both old and new accounts. Just before, Mrs. Wang, Manager Fan, and I were talking about making an example of her tonight,” Ji Yue shared, “Don’t worry, Mrs. Wang has everything under control in the lobby. We won’t have any trouble.” “By the way, Qiqi and Xue made some sort of sweet and sour dragon fish in the kitchen. It’s quite tasty, hurry and try it. I’m exhausted from this afternoon; I’m never wearing such high heels again. I’m going upstairs to find a spot to nap for a bit. See you later.” After sneaking some food from the kitchen, Ji Yue found herself sleepy and went to the second floor to find a place to nap.

Dragon fish?

Jiang Feng carried the milk tea and made his way to the kitchen; when he had left earlier, Wu Minqi and Ji Xue were clearly making meatballs. How had it turned into dragon fish?
