HCB Chapter 28 System, why didn't you say earlier that I could order online?
Chapter 28 System, why didn't you say earlier that I could order online?
[An order has been placed for the host: two bottles of peach juice, one bottle of grape juice, one bottle of mango juice, and a bag of pickled chicken feet. Please check your mail!]
"!!!"
So her system was silent because it went to buy her food?
Where else can you find such a thoughtful system!
Seeing the food she wanted appear in front of her the next second, Bai Mengran was extremely happy, but also slightly puzzled.
"Tongbao, why can I shop without going to a store? I didn't know about this feature!"
[Host, didn't you know you can place orders online through the backend? You only need to click on any item in the store, add it to your cart, and you can place your order all at once. Plus, you can enjoy lightning-fast delivery after placing your order.]
"I don't know!!! You never told me..."
"Wouldn't it seem silly of me to keep going to the convenience store and picking up things from there these past few days?"
Who knew it could be played like this? Bai Mengran belatedly felt a touch of resentment.
Okay, my bad, I forgot to remind the host...
[But think about it, host, nowadays, as long as there's internet and electricity, what can't we buy?]
"Stupid... This system means it's always at the host's service!"
The system almost blurted out the word "stupid," but quickly misspoke and pretended to be cute to get away with it.
Oh no! It almost got carried away and actually dared to talk back to its host?
No, no, it needs to seriously reflect on this!
As a considerate system, taking the blame is one of its essential skills, since it has such a big and indestructible head...
Bai Mengran didn't dwell on it too much. With such delicious food and drinks in front of her, what could be more important than eating?
Lying back on the huge sofa bed watching TV, munching on spicy chicken feet, and drinking refreshing and sweet fruit juice, it couldn't be more pleasant.
After eating and drinking most of the food, Bai Mengran got up and took a shower. When she came back, she lay on the bed and watched a show. Before she knew it, she had fallen asleep...
With Bai Mengran's help, a certain boastful system racked up 80 points today, surpassing the eighth-ranked [Blind Box System] in one fell swoop.
In a great mood, the system couldn't resist spending 5 points to buy a new skin for its virtual avatar. After happily changing into the new skin, it nervously glanced at its dear host.
Upon looking at her, it couldn't help but frown. The host was sprawled out on the sofa, probably too tired from the day and fast asleep.
The system was speechless at the sight of this beautiful yet chaotic scene.
It sighed, went to the bedroom to get a thin blanket to cover Bai Mengran, and then spent a bit of its spiritual energy to straighten her body.
Seeing that its host was finally lying peacefully and contentedly on the sofa bed, the system nodded in satisfaction and retreated happily, having accomplished its mission without a trace.
……
Bai Mengran slept for a long time, and when she groggily woke up, she found that the sun was already shining brightly outside the window.
Looking at the TV, the drama she watched before bed was still playing, but someone had muted it for her.
She slept through the entire series, from the second episode she could still remember to the fifteenth. So how long did she actually sleep...?
I rubbed my eyes and glanced at the system time. It was only a little past seven in the morning.
Bai Mengran was surprised that it was only this early after she had slept for so long. She felt like the time she had to get up early was just free.
She hadn't woken up naturally this early in a long time, and it felt really good.
I got up, brushed my teeth, washed my face, combed and braided my hair, and got dressed. It was only a little before eight o'clock when I was all done.
Bai Mengran opened the screen and saw that the system was still in hibernation mode, so she didn't wake it up.
She went to the [General System Shop], found the [Talent System], and after a conversation with the handsome uncle, she spent 2500 system coins (2000 unlocking fee + 500 first month consumables fee) to unlock the second AI waiter.
She then went into the [Employee] management section and, without thinking, named him "Xiao Er" (小二), male.
Then, just like last time, I used my phone to find a high-definition poster of a certain male celebrity, scanned it, and generated his image.
Bai Mengran became a fan after watching one of his TV dramas; she was really drawn to his character's looks. Later, when he held a concert in her city, she even went to the venue and became a devoted fangirl.
So now that she had the opportunity to learn about Nuwa's creation of humans, Bai Mengran naturally thought of him first.
The thought of working with this cool and handsome face in the future, and being his boss, made Bai Mengran excited, and her motivation to work increased even more.
I have to say, this is a great idea, a brilliant idea! From now on, she will create a super team of handsome men and beautiful women to serve her!
One vote from you, one vote from me, and both Little One and Little Two will debut...
The waiting time was too boring, so Bai Mengran didn't stay idle. She had already directed and acted out a talent show in her mind.
While the waiter was still working on the synthesis, Bai Mengran suddenly remembered the luxurious carriage she had won in the lottery last night.
Today is the perfect day to use the carriage. She needs to find a way to bring as many customers as possible, because after paying the waiter, she counted all the money she had left in her pocket and only had 2650...
With money only going out and not coming in, if I don't work harder to earn money and complete tasks, I'm afraid I'll be out of luck!
Sigh! Making money is not easy.
Just as she was trying to find the carriage but hadn't found it yet, two "beep" sounds rang out on the screen, indicating that the system was online.
"Hi, little Tongbao, good morning!"
Bai Mengran greeted the system warmly, and the sudden sound startled the system.
It had only just woken up and logged on to take a quick look, but it didn't expect its host to be up so early...
Waaah, the host is so dedicated, I'm ashamed of myself!
The system, moved by the gesture, slapped its face a few times to clear its head. No way! With its host so proactive, it couldn't slack off.
Clearing his throat, the system began its daily routine task announcement.
[Ding! You have a new task Lv.1-9: Increase advertising and attract 50 new customers. (Task reward: One Level 1 fully automated Chinese fast food restaurant, with an unlimited daily supply of 15 meat dishes, 15 vegetable dishes, 2 soups, and 3 staple foods.)]

[Ding, Main Quest 4: Hire a second AI waiter through the talent system. (Quest Reward: One Level 1 Restaurant, unlimited supply of soup noodles.)]
The system paused, rubbing its still-closed eyes. Was it seeing things? Why was the task showing as completed?
[...My diligent host, you've been quietly working on something big again this morning?]
