Universe Infinite Canteen

Ma Lu sat on the sofa, analyzed as he snacked on Queen\'s Crisps.

"Currently, the highest-level dish we can make is ★★★, and there\'s a 25% chance of earning an extra ☆ after your Chef level rises to 2, so that\'s ★★★☆. We\'re still half a star short, and most likely it\'s not going to work."

"We need to get higher-level ingredients. How about 5-star ingredients? If we can hunt down 5-star ingredients, there should be no problem, right?"

Old Wang nodded, "If I had 5-star ingredients, I could indeed try my hand at a ★★★★ recipe."

"Good, let\'s aim for 5-star ingredients in our next hunt."

Ma Lu decided firmly, "As long as we get the Phase Shifter and this High-Dimensional Artifact, we can open our shop. Also, why did you insist on getting the Tabletop Farm before?"

"Yan Wu was right, it\'s perfect for us. With it, we can cultivate ingredients, and your work will be much easier from now on."

"But I remember the Collection Bag can\'t hold living things," said Ma Lu, "I tried to put some Honey Lizard eggs in it before, but it failed. Or do you plan to use that thing to raise ordinary chickens, ducks, pigs, and cows?"

"That\'s because your Collection Bag isn\'t high enough level," Old Wang replied. "Once it upgrades to Level 6, it can unlock that feature."

"Level 6?" After some calculations, Ma Lu realized that upgrading the Collection Bag to level 6 would cost about 240,000, which wasn\'t a small sum. Even with his current earning speed, it would take more than two weeks.

Looking at it that way... well, it wasn\'t too slow.

Earning over ten thousand a day was actually terrifying. It was only because he had many places to spend money that he always felt stretched thin, but in reality, his earning speed had already surpassed that of an Alibaba P9.

And this was just the beginning. Ma Lu felt there was still a lot of room for improvement.

......

A week flew by quickly, and since the sale of Volcano Grilled Sausages had stopped, The Universe\'s Number One Snack Stall\'s popularity had decreased a lot.

The netizens\' attention was soon drawn to "Man obsessed with alchemy steals car bottom plates 6 times" and "Woman buys 5 boxes of cockroaches to release them in the community garden."

That\'s the Internet for you, always full of new trends, and no one can stay in the spotlight forever.

Fortunately, this wave had already made The Universe\'s Number One Snack Stall famous, and with its inherently great taste, there was no worry about sales even when introducing new products.

And with the reduced traffic, the riff-raffs also decreased.

The girl who cosplayed Rin Tosaka was still around, finding a spot next to the stall that didn\'t interfere with Ma Lu\'s business or other people\'s passage to livestream her dancing.

Since she wasn\'t much of a talker, she didn\'t say much and just focused on dancing hard. She could go on for three or four hours straight, hardly taking any breaks, just drinking a few sips of water. Her stamina was incredible.

At the end of a live broadcast, her hair was stuck to her forehead with sweat.

Shen Yue didn\'t go back on her word; the next day she really did bring a teacher to teach her makeup. After the makeover, Shen Yue, who had been somewhat careless, suddenly lit up, handing over the mirror.

"Look, what do you think?"

The girl was stunned, feeling the reflection in the mirror a bit unfamiliar, hesitating, she said, "This look… isn\'t it too fake?"

"Fake what? You haven\'t seen other streamers max out their face slimming and smooth out their skin so much they obliterate the main road, have you? You\'re just wearing some makeup, what about it?"

"But I still need to dance later, won\'t all this makeup smear if you put on so much?"

"Don\'t worry, I used waterproof eyeliner and mascara for you, and I also sprayed some setting spray on you. It\'ll last until you finish your stream."

The girl helping with the makeup encouraged her, "You have a good base, be a bit more confident."

Shen Yue, who was nearby, had already taken out her phone and, with a cheeky grin, leaned in. "Sister, sister, what\'s your name, and where are you from? Let\'s add each other on WeChat."

"He Xiaoqian, my hometown is in Huize."

He Xiaoqian also took out her Z6X, added Shen Yue and then added the girl who did her makeup, thanking them once more before timidly saying.

"How much do I owe you? I can transfer it to you via Alipay."

She had been sneakily glancing at the makeup products to estimate the cost, only to find brands like NARS, Shu Uemura, and HR that she didn\'t recognize, unsure if the money left in her Alipay was enough.

The girl laughed upon hearing this, "No need, the makeup set is also a gift for you. Just apply it as I\'ve taught you in the future."

Seeing that He Xiaoqian wanted to say more, Shen Yue directly interrupted her, "If Han Feifei wants to give it to you, just accept it. She\'s the richest girl in our academy, with a monthly allowance of 50,000, she doesn\'t care for our poor folks\' money."

"That\'s what you say, but you still have to pay back the money you borrowed from me," Han Feifei said to Shen Yue. "And remember the favor you promised me, I\'m leaving."

Upon hearing this, Shen Yue\'s face slightly changed color.

After Han Feifei left, Ma Lu curiously asked, "What exactly did you promise her?"

"I told her that if she helped me with makeup, I\'d do a Turtle Shell Binding for her with a gag in my mouth, but I was just kidding, man. Do rich ladies really have such extreme tastes?" Shen Yue shivered.

Hearing this, He Xiaoqian was also frightened. "Then, then I should return the makeup to her and apologize properly. I think Sister Feifei is quite nice, she should be willing to forgive us."

But Ma Lu knew Shen Yue\'s little tricks too well and warned.

"Don\'t be fooled by her. She never speaks the truth normally. She exaggerated things on purpose, to make you feel like you owe her a big favor, so that you\'d feel bad about rejecting any unreasonable requests from her in the future.

"Don\'t lower your guard just because she is a woman; she\'s actually bisexual."

"That\'s a smear against me!" Shen Yue protested loudly, a picture of righteousness. "Would I gamble with my reputation just for lying!?"

Ma Lu couldn\'t be bothered with her and turned to He Xiaoqian, "You have Han Feifei\'s WeChat, right? Just ask her directly."

Upon hearing this, Shen Yue instantly chickened out. "It\'s just a small thing, no need, really no need to bother Feifei again. Forget it, I\'m going to buy a gag."

With that, she scampered off.

But He Xiaoqian didn\'t immediately start broadcasting; instead, she blushed and said to Ma Lu, "Can, can I add you on WeChat too?"

"No, you don\'t even buy my snacks."

"Ah?" He Xiaoqian hastily opened Alipay.

"I was just joking. But then again, if you don\'t buy snacks, there\'s really no point in adding me on WeChat."

"Oh, oh, I just want to remember all the kind-hearted people who have helped me." He Xiaoqian said earnestly. "If I ever get the chance, I will definitely repay you all."
