Song Ruan read the rewards and reward descriptions over and over again, but still couldn't believe his eyes.

Did he read it right, the reward is actually an npc's favorability? ?

Although Mr. Xu is indeed an important character worth making friends with, what does this have to do with the system's rewards?Even if it is an online game, it should generally increase the favorability and then distribute rewards, right?

Song Ruan sighed. The last time Boss Wang sent out a seasoning packet from his branch line, he thought the system had changed its nature, and it really became more generous.As a result, he turned around and hit him hard in the face.

Forget it, after all, it's a branch line, and the amount of rewards may be different.

And basically he already has all the important and common seasonings, as long as the dishes are not too difficult, he can master them now.

Song Ruan glanced at the task bar again, and found that the new main task had been refreshed. He was shocked and read it intently.

[Main Quest] Congratulations, your Nanshan Restaurant has been prepared, please start business now!In order for the restaurant to operate normally, your target net profit for this month is 200 taels~

[Note] Overdue completion will deduct the host's life value, one day overdue will deduct ten years of life value, and so on until the deduction is exhausted.Please the host cherish life and stay away from procrastination.

Song Ruan read it word by word, and suddenly sighed.

200 taels, considering his family background, is not a very large number.

The most critical issue is not money, but time.

Counting from today to the end of the month, there are only ten days left.

And he has been open for such a long time, minus the meal money of Boss Wang and Mr. Xu, the earning is only a few taels of silver, which is pitifully small-after all, the restaurant is in the suburbs, and the main source of customers is some businessmen who come to Beijing to sell goods. But most of them are ordinary people who came to the capital for various reasons.

Businessmen are better, and they can still buy two or three dishes in the high-priced area if they are cruel.But ordinary people are different. The price of this dish is enough for them to live for several months. How could they be willing?

How can such traffic bring about the effect of a monthly income of 200 taels?

He propped his forehead with the palm of his hand, and couldn't help feeling a little headache.

Song Ruan can now see clearly that whenever he can take a breath, the system will urge him behind him with a whip.

It doesn't look scary at all, but only Song Ruan knows that the moment the whip falls, it will be ten years of life...

His current life is still being continued by the system for him. Looking back, it will be deducted for ten years, and it will be directly deducted into a negative number.Moreover, the description of the system is also very cryptic, one day overdue will be deducted for ten years, that is to say, if it is not completed, it will be deducted forever.

Song Ruan couldn't help but think, it would be fine if he didn't get reincarnated, otherwise he might have to pay back the debts of this life in the next life, and he would die early before he could cry for the first time... that sounds miserable.

He was imagining the scene of his parents holding his body in the next life and crying, when Yang Yuan just opened the curtain and saw him squatting in the corner of the yard by himself, and asked casually, "What are you doing there? Woolen cloth?"

Song Ruan: "Remember my afterlife."

Yang Yuan: "Huh???"

"It's nothing."

Song Ruan sighed, stood up and patted his robe, and then glanced at the panel that he hadn't had time to put away, and his eyes fell on the sentence 'Mr. Xu's favorability +10'.

He paused, then said lightly, "However, we may have to visit Mr. Xu again."

Yang Yuan: "???"

Song Ruan's goal is simple and clear. Since Mr. Xu and Mr. Chen are good friends, and they have the grace to save this person, then this favor is not in vain.

It's just that there is only one thing that is more difficult. Mr. Chen's appreciation meeting will be next month, and there are still about two weeks in between.Chen Yuanwai is an official of the imperial court, so it is impossible to change the date for the sake of a small commoner like him.

But if it really dragged on until next month, Song Ruan would definitely die.

So now there is only one way left.

Mr. Xu was a little surprised when his servants announced that Song Ruan and Yang Yuan had arrived.

He has been busy these days with how to deal with his ex-brother-in-law. A few days ago, the government had issued a verdict, directly sending his brother-in-law into prison, and ordering the former Xu family to sell their property to make up for Mr. Xu's losses.

Mr. Xu used some tricks to directly turn the fixed term into no fixed term, and obtained the former Xu's family property, which can be said to be very proud.

Of course, Mr. Xu has always been a person who repays his kindness, and he has not forgotten who saved his life for him.

Mr. Xu went to welcome the two ancestors in person, and ordered the servant to make a pot of good tea to entertain them.

He looked at Song Ruan, but didn't see any clues, so he turned his attention to Yang Yuan and asked, "Why are you two here free today?"

Yang Yuan looked innocent, and he didn't know anything.

Song Ruan coughed and attracted the attention of both of them. He said in a low tone, "I came here this time because I have something important to ask for help from my husband."

Mr. Xu knew that this matter must be very difficult, otherwise Song Ruan would not have left such a capable person like Yang Yuan to ask him for help.

His expression became serious, "Young Master Song, it's okay to say."

Song Ruan didn't talk nonsense, and said directly, "Mr. Xu, I am bound to win the spot for the head chef of the Chen Yuanwai Appreciation Club."

"It's natural."

Mr. Xu was at a loss, "Young Master's craftsmanship has been tasted before. Looking at the whole capital, there may not be anyone who can stand shoulder to shoulder with Young Master's level."

If Song Ruan wants him to repay this favor, then there is no need.He had intended to recommend Song Ruan to the staff.

Unexpectedly, Song Ruan shook his head, his tone was serious, and he said firmly, "I not only want to win this qualification. I also want you to help me get the full payment in advance from the staff."

As soon as this remark came out, the whole room fell silent.

After a long time, Mr. Xu said slowly, "Mr. Song, although I haven't heard of the full payment in advance, I can guess one or two. Do you want the staff to pay you in advance?"

Song Ruan nodded slightly, "Yes."

"Young Master Song, this is unreasonable."

Mr. Xu's face became more and more serious, and he also felt the difficulty of this matter, "If you ask the staff to pay half of the wages in advance, I can still persuade you, but pay the full wages in advance..."

"To be honest, I need to collect a sum of money, which is not too much, 200 taels."

Song Ruan's face was also a little gloomy, and he smiled wryly, "If it wasn't a last resort, I wouldn't come to see Mr. to walk this dirt road."

200 taels is really not much.

Mr. Xu was even more puzzled. After deliberating for a while, he asked cautiously, "Young Master's family is rich and solid. Could it be that the 200 taels..."

"It's life money."

Song Ruan sighed.

"What money for life? What does this mean?"

Before he said this, Yang Yuan didn't care too much about it. For him, money is something outside of him.If not, just go to the casino and walk around.Song Ruan asked for the 200 taels, no matter whether it was him or himself, he could actually afford it, so he didn't take it seriously at first.

But just when Song Ruan said the words 'buy life money', he suddenly raised his head and looked at Song Ruan in astonishment, "What happened to you? Why didn't you tell me? I will pay for the money." Can't you?"

In fact, in Yang Yuan's mind, there should be nothing wrong with him.What he really cared about was why Song Ruan would rather find a Mr. Xu whom he was not familiar with at all than let him help?

But in the next second, Song Ruan answered the doubt in his heart, "No."

Song Ruan shook his head, feeling very helpless, "If you are useless, then why should I come here?"

Yang Yuan's eyes darkened, and he wanted to ask again, but it was obvious that this was not a suitable place, so he had no choice but to swallow the question.

Mr. Xu is just an ordinary person, and he himself knows that the two people in front of him should be hiding a lot of secrets.

But he couldn't ask.

"200 taels is not too much for outsiders."

Mr. Xu knew that Song Ruan was unwilling to tell the specific cause and effect, so he changed the topic tactfully, "Although this matter is difficult, it is not impossible. Before the appreciation meeting, I will definitely help you get this fund."

"Do not."

Song Ruan shook his head helplessly. If he got it before the appreciation meeting, his body might be too cold. "Ten days, at most ten days. I don't have much time."

His words paused slightly, and one hand tightly grasped his wrist.

Song Ruan turned around and saw Yang Yuan didn't say a word, but just stared at him, with nervousness, anxiety and doubt in his eyes.

Mr. Xu was also frightened by this deadline, he gritted his teeth, the veins on his forehead slightly revealed, "I will try my best!"

He really didn't dare to guarantee it. After all, although Chen Yuanwai valued him, there was still a layer of separation between the host and the guest.Yuanwai affectionately called him Brother Xu, could he really regard himself as Yuanwai's younger brother in his heart?

Song Ruan had expected Mr. Xu's answer a long time ago. After all, he is still a stable person.

But Yang Yuan was different. He heard that Mr. Xu was perfunctory Song Ruan and them.He flew into a rage, beat the case, and almost pointed at the other person's nose and cursed, "What do you mean by trying your best?! You—"

He was stopped by Song Ruan before he could say the second half of the ugly sentence.

Mr. Xu touched the sweat on his head and said with a wry smile, "Young Master Yang, it would be the best if this matter can be accomplished. If it cannot be accomplished, I will die. I, Xu, are not afraid of death. After all, this life is up to Yang You borrowed it, Young Master. But even so, I cannot guarantee that I will get it for Young Master Song in such a short period of time."

"you--"

Yang Yuan was angry, and when he heard the word "best possible", he had the illusion that Song Ruan was in danger.But what Mr. Xu said was reasonable, and he couldn't think of anything to say back.He had no choice but to hold Song Ruan's wrist again, touched the bracelet through his sleeve, and said with a sullen face, "I'm here, let's see which brat dares to drag you to hell."

Although Song Ruan was very moved, she still said: "..."

my brother.

Did you know you could be an npc created by a 'ghost'?

"I know it's difficult for you."

Song Ruan pondered for a moment, and said firmly to Mr. Xu, "I won't make things difficult for you, so how about it, you find a chance to let me meet Yuanwai Chen, and I have a way to persuade Yuanwai."
