"Ding. Special Task: Within 100 years, have 5 anorexia patients willingly eat a meal. Current progress — 1/5."
Seeing an unexpected system prompt, Wang Fan felt a surge of happiness.
The things he makes actually have healing effects now, this sense of achievement is just so exhilarating.
He took out a cash box and dumped its contents onto the bed, and soon the scattered small changes covered half the bed.
Wang Fan never hides his love for small amounts of money.
He used to scoff at those big-shot statements.
It's like when beauties say they don't care about looks, or top students say being good at learning is just alright.
All pretentious remarks can't be taken seriously.
What if you really make him try being broke?
Every day, to save a few bucks on metro fare, he'd get up early and take one more bus transfer.
Every day, to save a few bucks on meal money, he'd either get up early to cook himself or compare various takeouts to see who has the best deal.
He has experienced these things, so he deeply understands the importance of small money.
Today, he made rice rolls both in the morning and afternoon, so the quantity is more than before, naturally earning more money.
Counting carefully, the day's sales turned out to exceed ten thousand.
Wang Fan felt this was incredibly unrealistic.
He used to work his butt off for two months to earn ten thousand bucks, but today, he actually made it in just one day!
Although this is just revenue, not net profit, his small business hardly has any capital, so he must have earned at least six thousand today.
If it weren't for his uncle still in the hospital waiting for money, he'd definitely feast on an authentic international Hui Province noodles Grand Slam tonight, and he must have two eggs!
"Grumble..."
Thinking of the noodles, Wang Fan's stomach growled involuntarily.
After not eating all day, he was indeed hungry now.
Tired from a whole day, he didn't want to fuss around anymore, so he took out some instant noodles from the cupboard, ready to make do.
When he's not in the mood to fuss over food, he'll just cook noodles for himself.
He placed the iron pot on the gas stove, lit the fire without adding anything, and put the noodles directly into the pot.
He learned this trick from someone else, and the noodles made this way taste much better than directly adding water.
After scalding the noodles for a while, he took them out, added some oil, and started frying the eggs.
With a "sizzling" sound, he poured the boiled hot water into the pot.
He then got a pot of milky-white egg soup, tossed in the noodles, lettuce, and scallions, and stirred with chopsticks, and the enticing aroma instantly spread.
"Grumble Grumble..."
Smelling the enticing aroma, Wang Fan's stomach growled again.
Adding a handful of scallions, he poured the contents into a big bowl beside.
After rinsing the pot clean, Wang Fan started digging in.
Using chopsticks to pick up the noodles, he blew on them and slurped a big mouthful.
As soon as the noodles hit his mouth, Wang Fan's eyes lit up.
Whether it's due to his improved chef level or simply because of his hunger, a bowl of ordinary egg noodles tasted incredibly delicious.
The most basic instant noodles, under his perfect culinary skills, turned out to have a rich texture—soft, delicate, and smooth, making him, the maker, feel endlessly relished.
Moreover, because he added nothing else, the whole bowl of egg noodles emphasized an egg aroma that filled his nose overwhelmingly.
His appetite was wide open, chopsticks moving non-stop, making eating sounds like a pig fighting for food.
Finally, after "gulping" the soup down, he felt alive again.
The best thing after eating and drinking one's fill is to have a nice nap, and Wang Fan did exactly that.
Thanks again to the system for providing the auto-task system, otherwise, he would not have such a good nap.
Praising the system inwardly, Wang Fan activated the auto-task system again.
Then his consciousness drifted off to sleep while his body mechanically started moving again.

Brother Gang not only streams live but also makes short videos from his content to post on various sites, with very high follower counts on each site.
He had already organized and posted yesterday's video.
Though the posting time was close to midnight, that's often the period when night owls are most active.
Once posted, the views quickly hit three digits.
Brother Gang's editing team is indeed powerful, with professional photography, showcasing the essence of Gang's entire day perfectly.
Especially under the high-resolution lens, the steaming, creamy white rice rolls make people want to take a bite through their phone screens.
"Damn, Brother Gang poisons us late at night, and I'm on a fat-loss streak, damn it!"
"Honestly, once I have money, I definitely want to switch to a phone that can smell scents."
"Curious about what these rice rolls taste like, I've ordered takeaway for years but haven't seen these."
"Hahaha, there's a shop downstairs, and in our Guangfu, such rice roll shops are plenty! I'm heading down to buy some and watch while eating."
Shen Yu also saw the video, commented with a mischievous smile below: "Hehehe, I'm part of the series that keeps Brother Gang from ending early. By the way, if any students in Beijing want to try these rice rolls, they really are incredibly delicious! The owner reportedly will change location soon, so hurry up if you want to taste them. The location is near the entrance of Shuofeng Park, the one with the longest line. Oh right, go early, around 6 am or 5 pm, or there's a big chance they won't have any left."
"Wow, quick fingers upstairs! I was about to say that, haha. I tried some today and they're really delicious."
"I also had them, honestly, it's the first time I've heard of a limited-supply stall, but they are truly good. I finished two portions before even reaching home."
Brother Gang's video spread quickly, as big influencers indeed have such influence.
However, Wang Fan himself was unaware of all this.
His old Nokia E90 couldn't even download QQ, let alone browse videos.
In the past, not being able to browse videos would have annoyed Wang Fan to death, but now, exhausted like a dog, he has no spare thoughts for things like that.
