Feng Ye placed the Tongtong machine in Lin’s hands and turned to leave. Lin waved his hand, and another person with blue hair walked over, carrying something. Lin quickly caught up while holding the item and said, “Master, please have something to eat before you go out. This is today’s freshly cooked vegetable soup from the kitchen. It’s fresh and not greasy!”

 

Feng Ye waved his hand dismissively. “I have no appetite.”

 

Lin was about to cry. “But, Master, you haven’t eaten anything for almost a month! Your health—”

 

Feng Ye’s voice drifted from a distance. “Lin, my health is perfectly fine.”

 

“Everyone, stop eating! There’s a problem with the food from Three Thousand Food House! It will harm your health if you consume it!”

 

Bai Xianzhi was stir-frying a plate of spicy chicken dices in the kitchen when suddenly there was a commotion outside. He poured the stir-fried chicken dices into a plate and carried it outside, where he saw a young man with brown hair and a long tail behind him, standing in the aisle and complaining about the problems with Three Thousand Food House to dozens of customers.

 

“…A few days ago, I saw news on Tongtong Network that the food at Three Thousand Food House has become delicious. So yesterday, I ordered a plate of spicy chicken dices at Three Thousand Food House. Before I started eating, I hesitated because this could be toxic food. Can I really eat it?”

 

“…But when I saw many people in the restaurant ordering this dish and eating it, I decided to try it too. The taste of the spicy chicken dices was indeed good, but it was uncomfortable to eat. Although drinking a bottle of milk could alleviate it, it still didn’t feel good. After finishing the spicy chicken dices, I couldn’t eat anything for the rest of the evening. And then, when I went to the bathroom, something unexpected happened…”

 

The tail behind the young man was long and flexible, the kind that Bai Xianzhi had only seen on monkeys. He placed the plate of spicy chicken dices in front of the customers and walked towards the young man, casually asking, “Are you constipated or did you tear your anus?”

 

Hou San’s expression stiffened, and when he turned around, he saw the owner of Three Thousand Food House standing behind him. He immediately exclaimed indignantly, “You knew! You clearly knew that eating the spicy chicken dices would cause this, so why did you still sell it?”

 

The other customers at Three Thousand Food House immediately stopped eating and stared at the plate of spicy chicken dices in front of them, salivating but hesitant to touch their chopsticks.

 

Bai Xianzhi raised an eyebrow. “Oh, what happens when you eat spicy chicken dices?”

 

Hou San roared, “Constipation and a sore butt! You just said it yourself!”

 

Bai Xianzhi lifted his eyelids. “I didn’t say that eating spicy chicken dices would cause that.”

 

“I want to ask you, when was the last time you ate fresh vegetables?”

 

Hou San’s face froze. As a member of the monkey tribe, he had a peculiar quirk of not liking to eat vegetables and fruits. When he was younger, under the coercion of his parents and grandparents, he had to eat a lot of vegetables and fruits every day.

 

Recently, he had finally reached adulthood and could leave his parents’ side to live on his own. He moved into a small cave that belonged to him and ate meat all day long, refusing to touch any vegetables or fruits. He vowed to make up for the thirty years of meat he missed in his childhood!

 

So, in fact, it had been a very long time since Hou San had eaten any vegetables or fruits.

 

But as a member of the monkey tribe, how could he let others know about this? He stubbornly retorted, “It’s none of your business! I got a sore butt only after eating the spicy chicken dices!”

 

Bai Xianzhi remained noncommittal. “Is that so? However, in all my years of eating spicy chicken dices, I have never heard of someone getting a sore butt from just one plate of spicy chicken dices. But I have heard of many people who don’t like to eat vegetables suffering from constipation and then experiencing a sore butt.”

 

Hou San’s complexion changed.

 

Bai Xianzhi continued, “The fiber in vegetables and fruits cleanses our intestines and softens the stool. So, if you eat fewer vegetables and fruits or don’t eat them at all, it’s a given that constipation will eventually lead to a sore butt.”

 

Hou San felt guilty. Upon careful thought, it seemed that he hadn’t had a bowel movement for several days before he ate the spicy chicken dices at Three Thousand Food House. Could it be that it wasn’t because of the spicy chicken dices but because he hadn’t eaten any vegetables or fruits?

 

Bai Xianzhi noticed the change in Hou San’s expression and struck while the iron was hot. “If it’s just constipation and a sore butt, it’s still manageable. But the problem is that if this continues for a long time, it can lead to changes in the intestines, with more and more excrement accumulating and the wounds not healing. The consequences are unimaginable.”

 

Hou San was just a newly adult monkey youth with plenty of life ahead of him. The pain from tearing his anus last night had frightened him greatly, which led him to come to Three Thousand Food House to warn everyone. The fact that he cared about his health was evident. When he heard the words “unimaginable consequences,” his face turned pale, and he murmured, “What should I do?…Help?”

 

Bai Xianzhi found it amusing. Up to this day, he had also discovered that the orcs from the orc world were incredibly naive and cute. Their scheming was like that of elementary school children, easily seen through at a glance.

 

Moreover, they were easily fooled. At this moment, the young man with a monkey tail had clearly fallen for his words.

 

Bai Xianzhi didn’t beat around the bush either. He went upstairs and took out a small bottle of enema, placing it in the young man’s hand. “You squeeze this in that place, but not too much. Then you will feel the urge to relieve yourself. But you shouldn’t use too much of this either. The most important thing is to eat vegetables and fruits every day.”

 

Hou San held the small enema bottle as if holding a life-saving straw, nodding incessantly. “Okay, thank you, boss. I misunderstood you. It turns out the problem had nothing to do with your spicy chicken.”

 

As he spoke, Hou San turned to look at the other diners. “I’m sorry, everyone. It was my mistake. My problem had nothing to do with the boss’s spicy chicken. It’s because I haven’t eaten vegetables and fruits for a long time. I got it wrong.”

 

The other diners in the restaurant also understood and expressed that it was okay, no problem. After all, if your butt hurts, everyone understands.

 

Touched, Hou San left Three Thousand Food House while holding the enema. Before leaving, he still wanted to order a serving of spicy chicken, but Bai Xianzhi cruelly refused. Bai Xianzhi warned him to go back and eat vegetables properly for ten days or half a month. It was best to eat less stimulating things like spicy chicken.

 

After Hou San left, Three Thousand Food House resumed its order. The customers in the restaurant were not affected at all by the extremely strong smell from the previous conversation. They continued to eat heartily. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Bai Xianzhi announced a new regulation directly.

 

“Everyone, starting from today, our restaurant will supply spicy dishes such as Spicy Chicken Dices once every five days.”

 

The customers in the room lamented.

 

“Boss, why?”

 

“Yeah! Boss, if there’s no problem, why limit the supply?”

 

“Boss, please don’t do this! I haven’t had enough yet!”

 

Bai Xianzhi pressed his hand down, and the diners quieted down. “Spicy Chicken Dices are highly stimulating. Although they are not poisonous and won’t cause any major issues, they pose a challenge for people with sensitive intestines or weaker bodies. It can cause minor problems like mouth sores. Therefore, our restaurant has decided to limit the supply for everyone’s consideration.”

 

“Boss, I’m not afraid! I have a healthy body!”

 

“Boss, me too! I belong to the Tiger Tribe, and I’m super strong!”

 

“Boss, can’t you serve it daily for those with good health?”

 

Bai Xianzhi walked directly into the kitchen. He was already exhausted from cooking every day, and he didn’t have the time to discern who had a good or bad body. So a uniform approach was the simplest and most direct method.

 

The wails of the customers in the dining area received no response. Knowing that they wouldn’t be able to eat Spicy Chicken Dices for the next few days, some people decided to order a portion again. However, Bai Xianzhi refused them, and they had no choice but to eat their own meal with fewer and fewer portions of Spicy Chicken Dices, tears streaming down their faces.

 

In the kitchen, Feng Baoer looked at the departing customers with a puzzled expression. “If they have money, why don’t you earn it? What does their health have to do with you?”

 

Bai Xianzhi glanced at him. “If they have issues after eating at my restaurant, am I not responsible for it? Besides, I’m tired of making Spicy Chicken Dices every day. Limiting the supply gives me a chance to make something different.”

 

Feng Beier scratched his head on the side, suddenly enlightened. “So this is how business is done? You do whatever you want, but you just need to come up with a good excuse for the sake of others.”

 

Bai Xianzhi weighed the spoon in his hand. “Kid, mind your words.”

 

Feng Baoer stood in front of Feng Beier. “That’s what you’ve been doing!”

 

Bai Xianzhi smirked and didn’t bother arguing with the two kids.

 

The number of customers at Three Thousand Food House gradually decreased. After seeing off the last customer, it was already half past ten. Bai Xianzhi glanced at the two kids having supper and frowned as he looked outside the door. Wasn’t it agreed that the parents would come to pick them up today? Why hadn’t they arrived yet?

 

Forget it, Bai Xianzhi walked into the kitchen to wash the dishes and instructed the two kids to call him when someone arrived. After washing almost half of the dishes for the day, the crisp sound of the doorbell rang outside, accompanied by the frightened voices of the two kids.

 

“Uncle!”

 

“Uncle!”

 

Bai Xianzhi dried his hands and walked out of the kitchen, seeing the two kids looking at the man at the door with surprise and fear on their faces. The man had waist-length silver hair and an air of extreme coldness and aloofness between his brows and eyes. His fair skin resembled porcelain, and as for that face, Bai Xianzhi knew right away that he was definitely the relatives of the two kids. He asked, “Are you their uncle?”

 

The silver-haired man nodded, and his vermilion lips lightly parted. His voice seemed to carry an unshakable indifference. “Hello, I’m Feng Ye.”

 

Bai Xianzhi nodded. “I’m Bai Xianzhi. Since the parents have arrived, you can take the kids home now.”

 

Feng Ye nodded and said to Feng Baoer and Feng Beier, “Baoer, Beier, let’s go.”

 

Reluctantly, Feng Baoer and Feng Beier looked at Bai Xianzhi… and the supper behind him. It was the stuffed cabbage rolls and crispy fried meat that Bai Xianzhi made for them. They hadn’t eaten much yet!

 

Bai Xianzhi chuckled and called out, “Wait.”

 

Feng Ye turned around, looking at the boss who called him back. Considering that he was the benefactor of his two nephews, he had a bit more patience. “What else?”

 

Bai Xianzhi took out three hundred time coins from his pocket and placed them in Feng Baoer’s hand. “Here’s your money.”

 

Feng Baoer looked at the money in his hand, then looked at Bai Xianzhi, his eyes widening in disbelief. “It was you! You took my money!”

 

Bai Xianzhi hooked his lips and flicked the smooth forehead of the boy. “You’re so naive to run away from home with your little brother, and you didn’t even know your money was taken. Be more vigilant in the future before leaving.”

 

After saying that, Bai Xianzhi walked into the kitchen and took out four containers, stuffing all the remaining stuffed cabbage rolls and crispy fried meat into the containers. He put them in bags and handed them to the two kids. He also took out two hundred time coins and put them in their hands. “Your supper and your wages. Now go home.”

 

Feng Baoer stared at Bai Xianzhi in a daze. He wiped his eyes, clenched his pocket and the time coins, and said firmly, “Brother, when I grow up, I want to work for you!”

 

Bai Xianzhi chuckled, “Sure, when you’re of age and my shop is still running, I’ll let you work here.”

 

Feng Baoer was resolute, “It will definitely still be here. Brother, the food you make is so delicious, it will definitely be here!”

 

Feng Beier, who didn’t understand anything, heard his brother’s words and chimed in, “It will be here! It will be here!”

 

Bai Xianzhi smiled, “Great! Borrowing your auspicious words, it’s already late now, so hurry back home. If you feel like eating something, have your parents bring you to Three Thousand Food House.”

 

Feng Baoer and Feng Beier responded in an unusually unanimous manner this time, “Okay!”
