Synopsis

[Food + historical figures from every dynasty + no female lead + heartwarming + running a business + healing + everyday life]

[Ding-dong! A city gate has been opened at random]

[The gate to Han City, Class B, is now open]

[Host, please hurry to Han City, Class B, to set up your stall]

What does it feel like to wake up one morning and find you've got a golden finger?

Qin Yu was stunned, because the System's first words were: You're dead.

Then he found himself in a place called Elysium. Apparently, this was where all the big shots recorded in history gathered, good and bad alike.

And he had become the Head Chef of Elysium.

He had to complete food-trading missions and open the gates to every city in Elysium, allowing them to trade with one another.

But... weren't these missions a little too difficult? Each customer could trade only once a day, and each trade earned him just one Elysium coin.

Tsk... And on top of that, the city gates opened at random every day.

He hadn't even had time to bond with his three SSRs, Huo Qubing, Huo Guang, and Wei Qing, and now he had to head to Tang City, Class B?

Fine, fine. He'd accept it.

But while Qin Yu accepted his lot, the residents of the cities he'd visited went crazy.

“Where did Boss Qin go? Why hasn't he come yet?”

“Where's my Qin? Where is he? Aaaah!”

“I dreamed about those noodles all night. You're telling me Boss Qin isn't coming? You might as well kill me now.”

Gradually, Qin Yu began to feel that something was off... But what?

Oh! What was going on? Why were all the big shots acting so out of character?

He could understand Huo Qubing crying, and Cheng Yaojin being hot-tempered, but why had even Wang Anshi, who cared least about food, and Emperor Wu of Liang, among others, changed?

Good heavens, was his career as the overlord of Elysium's outer city about to begin?

Overall, this book is very good. The description of food taste is quite unique and detailed, and the taste of food is described in detail. The most important thing is that this article is not a brainless novel and does not have a female protagonist. At the same time, it is very outstanding in the category of historical novels. Especially the setting of Elysium makes me very interested (￣▽￣) (os: The above comments are only my personal views on this book. If there are any mistakes or things you don't like, please don't blame me. Thank you (T ^ T). I hope it can be helpful to you (◐‿◑) )

The author's description of food is spot on. The storyline is also interesting. It feels like there is nothing surprising to me. The protagonist doesn't give much spoilers. After all, this is not a story about future generations or history, but a food story, so it's understandable that it doesn't talk much about history. Looking forward to the plot development.

It's really, really beautiful\(//∇//)\The subject matter chosen by the author is also very novel, and the writing style is also very good. I really won't regret it. I like it so much, I like it, I like it so much (✪▽✪) The author must stick to it (´｡✪ω✪｡`)

Give it four stars! But it's not because the filter is broken, it's because I ate a self-heating hot pot while watching it... I'm so greedy for potato fans, woo woo woo 😢

The subject matter is novel and the writing is also good. I hope it will continue to maintain this level in the future. The biggest problem at the moment is that I don't know what the follow-up will develop into. I am very afraid that it will not be completed [send my heart][send my heart][send my heart]

It's okay without a heroine! I kind of want to see the development of exchanges between different cities. Overall good, worth recommending! But it's too short. The author will update it soon!
