The NO.1 Food Stall in the Wasteland novel Chapter 202

Chapter 202: Chapter 202: Selling Noodles? You’d Be Better Off Feeding Pigs

Shen Lu was startled when she came out to find the waiting area packed to the brim.

She quickly tried to disperse the crowd. ’If everyone is crammed in here, how are the customers who’ve finished eating supposed to leave?’

After a few unpleasant exchanges, they finally managed to clear a path.

Even more fans, their eyes gleaming with anticipation, waited to see the poster in her hands.

Shen Lu didn’t unroll it. She handed it directly to the girl who had won, telling her to take it and leave quickly, and not to have so many people crowding the waiting area.

The girl, surrounded by an eager crowd, left the restaurant and carefully unrolled the poster on the street outside.

It depicted the scene where Li Zexing, as Dog Hero, wore the Biting Inhibitor for the first time. The naive Dog Hero didn’t yet know the inhibitor would be used to restrain him; he thought it was a reward from the Doctor, and his face was lit with a joyful smile.

"It’s this poster!" The girl who won was ecstatic. "This is the exact one I was missing!"

"I love this poster so much! Brother Xing’s expression is so innocent and pure. I’m obsessed!"

"Can I buy it off you? Please, girl, I just need this one to complete my collection!"

"Don’t listen to her, she’s lying! Sell it to me! I’m the one who’s *really* just missing this one to complete the set!"

The girl who won rolled the poster back up. "No way. I would never give away a Brother Xing poster. If you want one, go enter the lottery yourself."

With that, she pushed her way out of the crowd and left without a backward glance.

The fans left behind all turned their gazes toward Little Deer Cuisine in unison. The previously boisterous crowd fell silent.

More than half of them had punch cards, but not everyone came every day to get a punch. After all, you needed ten punches to enter the lottery once, and with so many prizes, there was no guarantee you’d get Li Zexing’s merch.

But today, the very first person to enter the lottery had won a Li Zexing poster on their first try. This created the illusion that his merchandise was easy to get.

Someone broke the eerie silence, taking the lead and rushing into the restaurant.

"Boss, I need to eat!"

The girl was frantic. She had already gotten three punches sporadically. To get to ten on her own, she would need to make a purchase at Little Deer Cuisine another seven times.

If she couldn’t buy someone else’s punch card, she’d have to wait seven days for her one chance at the lottery.

’Heaven knows if someone else will be as lucky as that girl today and win some of Li Zexing’s merch, too.’

’If someone else really does win, that means my own chances will get even smaller.’

’No, that can’t happen.’

The thought of missing out on Brother Xing’s merch made her chest tighten.

The others quickly caught on and swarmed into the restaurant like a plague of locusts, their overlapping shouts demanding food.

This mob of fans was giving Shen Lu a massive headache. She had to resort to using a megaphone to control the crowd, finally getting them in line with a mixture of coaxing and threats.

Those with money to spare naturally ordered set meals, but some who were on a tight budget only ordered a cup of the cheapest mint water.

Shen Lu didn’t care how much the customers spent. As long as she could complete her daily mission and get some more recognition and positive reviews, that was all that mattered. So, she treated everyone with the same level of service.

[DING! Detected sales: Braised Pork Set Meal 500/500, Kung Pao Chicken Set Meal 400/400, Steamed Fish Head with Chopped Chili Set Meal 30/30. Total revenue has reached 99,000 Star Coins, and customer satisfaction is three stars or higher. Mission complete. Reward: one Lottery Ticket.]

Amid the chaos, Shen Lu hadn’t even noticed she’d already completed her daily mission. The Lottery Ticket landed securely in her possession.
