I Asked You to Open a Breakfast Shop, So Why Are You Making Wu Meiniang Drool?

[Food + Urban Show-Offs + No Female Lead + Ancient and Modern Encounters]

A food novel, a slice-of-life story, and a slow pace. Don't read if that's not your thing.

Chen Ye is betrayed by his best friend and somehow ends up taking over a breakfast shop in the most expensive district of Haishi, leaving himself buried in debt.

Luckily, he binds to a Chef God System.

Customer: What? The soup dumplings at a breakfast shop near the university are actually 98 yuan?

Gradually, strange things start happening outside Chen Ye's breakfast shop.

The afternoon sun is blazing, yet a crowd of diners is lining up for breakfast.

But why is his Chef God System different from everyone else's?

Besides letting him cook unbelievably delicious food, it can also bring people from the past to the present?

Look, please, this isn't a place to take photos in traditional Han clothing.

"I am Wu Meiniang. May I ask, is this the Tang Dynasty?"

Before the shop has even officially opened, a stunning woman wearing a high-waisted ruqun appears.

Wu Meiniang trades a gold hairpin bestowed by the emperor for a serving of egg fried rice and a box of asthma medicine.

Wu Meiniang, Lu Bu, Jia Xu, Zhu Biao, Ying Yinman, Liu Che, Wu Song, Lin Chong, Li Bai, Ying Zheng, Zhuge Liang, Zhu Yuanzhang, Li Qingzhao, Huo Qubing, Xi Shi, Liu Bang, Yang Jian...

From then on, this breakfast shop becomes the ultimate meetup spot for people from ancient times.

Inside the shop, Li Shimin brags about the Reign of Zhenguan, while Ying Zheng at the next table snorts and slams down his wine cup.

Liu Bang and Zhu Yuanzhang are swapping business tips on how to "start out with nothing but a bowl."

Netizen: Where did this shady shop owner find his extras? The guy playing Li Bai casually spouts a poem that puts the chairman of the Writers' Association to shame? The one playing Hua Tuo casually cures the richest man's terminal illness?
