Chapter 190 System Upgrade, Delicious to the Point of Crying

[Ding, the system is upgrading...]

Seeing the system prompt, Wang Jianye couldn't help but get excited.

The last time the system was upgraded, it gave him a function whereby the dishes he made at the state banquet level would have a chance to carry special effects, and it also reminded him that the condition for the next system upgrade was that the probability of triggering any special effect be increased to 100%.

Now, after spending more than a month, he finally raised the probability of triggering the special effect [Add one day to life span] from 0.01 to 1. In other words, as long as he cooks a dish of state banquet level, he can trigger this effect %.

"What new features will this system upgrade bring me?"

Wang Jianye was looking forward to it, staring at the system upgrade progress bar in his mind until it reached the last grid.

【Ding, system upgrade successful! 】

Hearing the system prompt, Wang Jianye couldn't wait to open his personal panel.

[Experience value: 189]

【…】

[Note: The upper limit of the dish level has been raised from 100 State Banquet level to 1000 Legend level.]

[Note: The legendary dishes are so delicious that you will cry. ]

[Note: The next upgrade condition for this system is to upgrade the level of 10 dishes to the legendary level.]

"It's so delicious that I cried? Then what? It's gone?"

Wang Jianye scratched his head. This time, the system upgrade not only raised the upper limit of cooking skills, but also added a legendary level. This meant that a legendary dish could be so delicious that it would make you cry...

"It's a legendary dish, even better than the state banquet-level one."

This is how Wang Jianye understands it.

When he saw that it took 900 experience points to upgrade a state banquet-level dish to the legendary level, he couldn't help but take a deep breath, "This is too much. I currently have seven apprentices, and I can get an average of 210 experience points per day. But even with this, it will take at least five days to earn 900 points."

The speed of improvement is much slower than before when the dishes were upgraded to state banquet level.

After all, it only takes 100 points to upgrade an entry-level dish to state banquet level.

And now if he wants to upgrade an entry-level dish to legendary level, he needs 1000 experience points, which is ten times the amount!
"I want to see how delicious this legendary dish is. It actually requires 1000 experience points."

Wang Jianye had a plan in mind.

Five days later.

Wang Jianye’s total experience value reached 1239 points.

"System, upgrade this dish of spicy and sour shredded potatoes to the legendary level!"

[Ding, Spicy and Sour Potato Shreds (State Banquet Level 100+) has been successfully upgraded after spending 900 experience points. Congratulations to the host for mastering Spicy and Sour Potato Shreds (Legendary Level 1000+). ]

As the system prompt sounded in his mind, Wang Jianye seemed to see himself persisting in studying this spicy and sour potato shreds for fifty years before he finally caught a glimmer of inspiration and broke through the bottleneck of this dish!
At this moment, Wang Jianye had mastered a lot of experience and insights about this dish of spicy and sour potato shreds, as well as some mysterious things.

Slowly opening his eyes, Wang Jianye took a deep breath, "I am going to make a legendary dish of spicy and sour potato shreds to see how delicious it is!"

Wang Jianye did it right away. He picked two good potatoes and started cutting them skillfully on the chopping board.

From the state banquet level to the legendary level, Wang Jianye's basic skill of cutting vegetables has not improved much, because the state banquet level of cutting potato shreds is already very, very good, and it is difficult to make any further improvements or breakthroughs.

Wang Jianye didn't care. He just wanted to taste how delicious the legendary spicy and sour potato shreds were.

After cutting the potatoes into shreds, Wang Jianye placed them in a basin and rinsed off the starch with cold water.

While the potato shreds were soaking in cold water, Wang Jianye began to cut the ingredients. He cut the onions into chopped green onions, smashed the garlic into minced garlic, cut the chili into segments, and cut the ginger into thin strips...

After all these are done, the potato shreds are almost soaked in cold water, so take them out and drain them. Then heat the oil in a pan and add a few peppercorns when the oil is hot.

Then put the chopped green onion, shredded ginger, minced garlic, and chili segments into the pot, stir it a few times with a spoon to bring out the aroma, then pour the dried shredded potatoes into the pot and stir-fry quickly over high heat.

At this time, the fire must be high and the speed must be fast. Otherwise, if you don't control it well, the fried potato shreds may not be cooked or lose their crispness.

Wang Jianye, who has already made this dish to a legendary level, has mastered it very well and easily got it just right.
After seasoning, Wang Jianye served the spicy and sour potato shreds out of the pot.

At this point, Wang Jianye made his first legendary dish of spicy and sour potato shreds.

[Ding, experience value +1]

[Ding, the legendary spicy and sour potato shreds made by the host trigger a special effect, and the life span is increased by one day. ]

"This dish smells so good. Just by smelling it, it tastes much better than the state banquet-level ones. Let's try it."

Wang Jianye couldn't wait to pick up the chopsticks, picked up a few shredded potatoes and put them into his mouth.

then.

“This dish is so delicious…”

Wang Jianye burst into tears.

Only then did he understand the meaning of the phrase "so delicious that it makes you cry" that came with the legendary dishes after the system upgrade. It turned out that this was not just an adjective to describe the taste, but that one really could not help crying.

"Master, Master, what's wrong with you?"

Chen Xiaoyang, who was standing next to him, noticed that Wang Jianye was crying bitterly, and hurried over to ask with concern.

Wang Jianye wiped his tears and said, "I'm fine, I'm fine."

"..."

You've been crying like this, and you're still saying it's okay... Chen Xiaoyang frowned and brought him a clean towel to wipe his tears. "Master, if there's anything, please tell me. I'm your apprentice, so I have to take care of you."

Wang Jianye pointed to the dish on the table.

Chen Xiaoyang asked in confusion: "Master, your spicy and sour potato shreds look delicious, what's wrong?"

"Taste it."

Wang Jianye said with sobs.

Could it be that the dish was cooked wrongly and tasted particularly bad? But no matter how bad it tasted, there was no need to cry...Chen Xiaoyang took a bite of the legendary hot and sour potato shreds that Wang Jianye had just made with curiosity, and said, "Wow..."

Chen Xiaoyang couldn't help crying as well.

Ma Hua, Wang Yijun and others were dumbfounded. What was going on? Why were the master and the eldest brother crying like this?

"Master, what happened to you, big brother?"

Ma Hua, Wang Yijun and six others walked up to him and asked anxiously.

Wang Jianye asked them to try the spicy and sour shredded potatoes.

The six of them did as they were told, and after eating the spicy and sour potato shreds, they couldn't help crying, just like Chen Xiaoyang. It was so miserable.

When Cao Xiaodong saw Wang Jianye and his disciples crying like this, he was stunned.

Shit, what's going on?!

Why are these master and apprentice crying? !
