Chapter 451 Transaction 2

At Xia Zhiji Restaurant, as Xia Cong brought out delicate dishes one after another from the back kitchen, the two people who were talking attentively in the restaurant were able to stop talking.

Although blacksmithing and alchemy belong to two very different sub-professional systems, the most basic aspects of material use and performance conversion are basically the same. Therefore, when talking about such topics, the two are very interested. .

On the other hand, compared to the two people's conversation, Bubu, who was also listening at the dinner table, looked sleepy until the tempting aroma of the dishes penetrated his nose, and his little bit by bit. The head that was falling suddenly lifted up.

"Woof!" (dinner is ready!)

Although he didn't understand Wang Xingyu, after getting along for a long time, Bubu's meaning was not difficult to guess. He glanced at Erha beside him, who looked excited, and Xia Wei curled her lips and held the plate of pagoda-shaped meat in her hands. He placed it firmly within the last gap of the dining table, then clapped his white hands, raised his chest and put his hands on his hips and said:

"Done! Try the new cuisine I developed. Those extraordinary ingredients will never be wasted. How about giving it a try!"

Before Xia finished speaking, pairs of eager wooden chopsticks had already reached out one after another, and then the sound of chewing began to sound.

With enough extraordinary ingredients, Xia's cooking skills can only be described as improving by leaps and bounds. At least in Xu Yue's view, the dishes in front of him are no less than those famous restaurants in the inner city of the food court, and not only are they delicious, Its own recovery effect is equally powerful.

Next to the dining table, Xia Jingjing, who was leaning on the edge of the counter, stared at the two people and the dog devouring food in front of him, with a smile on his face.

Whether it is Xu Yue or Su Xiao, although the process of eating when hungry is not rude, it definitely has nothing to do with elegance. However, for a chef, the voracious devouring of diners can trump all verbal expressions. Praise and flattery.

After a long time, when the hunger fire in their bellies was finally extinguished, the two people at the table slowed down their eating speed slightly, and Xia beside them asked softly:

"How does it feel?"

"good!"

After swallowing the soft and glutinous meat in her mouth, feeling the warmth gradually spreading from her stomach to her whole body, Su Xiao spoke firmly.

"With this skill alone, most adventure groups in the park will welcome you to join."

"Ha~" Xia chuckled slightly, her eyebrows slightly curved, but her gaze looking out the window was a little distant.

"It's just a glimmer of some ingredients, but it's better to join the adventure group. There are too many rules and regulations. I don't want to be reduced to a cooking machine that frantically makes supplies for the hundreds of people in the group every day. Then It’s too miserable.”

"Anyway, life is pretty good now. Although it's a bit tight, it's good that it's stable and free. Even if you accidentally die in a derivative world one day, it won't be a loss. After all, before entering the paradise, aren't we all already? You've died once, so... since you earn money every extra day you live, why not live more comfortably? Besides, with your abilities, didn't you also choose to join the adventure group?"

Xia's tone was calm, but the free and easy meaning in his words was particularly obvious. Even the two people eating beside him couldn't help but look slightly sideways.

His eyes swept over the particularly empty tables and chairs around him, and Su Xiao did not reply any further. From some aspects, Xia, he, and Xin Huo were actually the same type of people.

Whether it's Xia's cooking skills, his alchemy skills and combat power, or the forging of Xinhuo, as long as they are willing, they can easily join a large adventure group. I dare not say that their strength will increase by leaps and bounds because of this, but at least The safety factor and resource status will definitely be greatly improved.

As for why you insist on not joining? Worrying about being exposed as a hunter is actually the most trivial reason. In the final analysis, they all just want to live more comfortably, as Xia said:

'life and death? Aren't they all a group of people who have died long ago? In this case, why not be afraid of dying again? In short, it is enough to live more freely this time. ’

The same thought flashed through Xu Yue's mind, but after looking down at the long-term gain state that appeared on his body due to eating, something strange gradually appeared in his eyes when he looked at Xia.

[Energetic: Within 24 hours, the hunter's mana recovery speed increases by 100%, the physical recovery speed increases by 300%, and the mental exhaustion effect is continuously reduced by 50%. 】

"Finding money?"

Xu Yue's tone was a little incomprehensible. Extraordinary food that can have such a beneficial effect, even if it cannot be stored for a long time, can be sold at least at a high price of more than four figures in the trading market, and there will definitely be an endless stream of buyers. Absolutely.

"I remember that I saved some high-quality ingredients for meal expenses. With your cooking skills, even if you only make a small part of them and sell them, you shouldn't be short of money."

Xia Dun, who was standing still and doing a concave shape not far away, suddenly looked stiff, then scratched his slightly red cheek and said softly:

"The location of the restaurant is too remote. Usually there are no other customers here!"

"So why did you choose to open a store here?"

"No money!"

Faced with Xu Yue's question, Xia vividly showed him what it means to be poor and confident. After a pause, she continued to explain.

"Although the park has certain discounts for employees to open stores, the prices in areas with better locations are still quite expensive. For the current store, I only managed to get it with a loan from the park."

"loan?!"

Hearing the word loan, Su Xiao, who was eating silently on the side, quickly became interested. Whether it was Bubu's bone stick soul fusion or the upgrade of his long knife, it would consume a lot of resources, not to mention those who were waiting for food. skill, so he now has a great demand for paradise coins.

If the park really provides loan services, then he doesn't mind spending money in advance.

"How to borrow?"

Facing Su Xiao's slightly shining eyes at the edge of the counter, Xia rolled her eyes and decisively dismissed the other party's expectations.

"Don't think about it. The park's loan service is only open to a small number of employees, and the number is limited."

After hearing this, Su Xiao, who was denied a way to make money, was not disappointed. He just nodded lightly and continued to work. On the other side, Xia Ze turned to look at Xu Yue on the other side again, with moist eyes. With a trace of expectation.

Judging from the previous conversations, she always felt that the boss in front of her who also ran a store might be able to point out her miserable situation that was on the verge of bankruptcy at that moment.

"If the store doesn't work, why don't you go to the market and try it? It shouldn't be difficult for you to maintain the effect of the dishes and sell them."

"It's not difficult, but I don't dare!"

"Well?!"

She was still confident and confident. In just two sentences, Xia Mingmei showed everyone what it means to be poor and cowardly. Seeing that they were confused, she shrugged and continued.

"Those are purple-quality ingredients, and the market is crowded with people. One second I dared to take it out and sell it openly, and the next second I will be beaten to death by at least two digits of hyenas from the paradise. Keep an eye on me, what’s waiting for me is either hunting and killing in the derivative world, or being forced into a large adventure group, you’re guaranteed to die!”

Paradise hyenas refer specifically to those contractors who hunt their own kind for food. They often wander in groups of small and large in the mixed trading market, searching for target prey that inadvertently reveal their wealth, and among the targets are Various employees and new contractors are the most common ones who are slightly weak and do not have the protection of large forces.

Once the prey is locked, these hyenas will use various props to lock the next derivative world that the prey is about to enter, and then gather people to encircle, suppress and plunder, thereby obtaining resources in a relatively violent way.

Although these people are not very powerful, their cooperative hunting methods and insidious and secretive fighting methods make them as annoying as the hyena packs on the African grasslands, and they can never be exterminated.

Even Xu Yue and Su Xiao have most likely been targeted by these paradise hyenas when they were in the trading market. However, due to the fact that the hunter numbers cannot be traced, they have never been harassed by them.

However, when the target is changed to Xia, once she is targeted as a prey due to revealing her wealth, the possibility of her being able to avoid the hyenas is almost slim.

Thinking of this, Xu Yue and Su Xiao looked at each other, and there was a hint of clarity in their sights. Xia was able to survive in the paradise with meager combat power so far. He was undoubtedly more familiar with the cruelty at the bottom of the reincarnation paradise than they were. rule.

'Strength is respected, survival of the fittest', behind these eight simple words, are the countless blood and tears of the weak and the mountains of corpses. Therefore, for Xia, no matter how cautious he is, Not an exaggeration.

As for Xu Yue and Su Xiao, their super-standard combat power that is far above their peers is enough to make them ignore most of the dangers and calculations in Paradise City.

"Since the risk in the trading market is too high, then sell it anonymously in my store. I really look forward to the group of hyenas actively hunting me, but I don't know who will be the prey then."

"You mean the furnace?!"

"Um."

Seeing Xu Yue nodding in agreement, Xia Ye immediately nodded in agreement. Although the furnace and forging shop has not been open for a long time, thanks to the specialness and rarity of the soul-melting equipment, it can be considered a success even in the entire paradise city. He is somewhat famous,

Although Xia couldn't afford the equipment and props inside, she had gone shopping a few times in her spare time. I'm not sure how popular it was. Anyway, the daily customer flow during business hours was extremely impressive, which was far better than that of a stranger like her. secluded restaurant.

If there was a way to earn paradise coins that was safe enough and without risks, Xia would definitely hug her thighs tightly. Her cowardice could be said to be a necessary measure to ensure safety, but poverty is really just helpless. miserable situation.

Even if she is as poor as she is, she has always dreamed of becoming rich once and for all. From now on, she will have free money in Paradise. Even if she buys groceries, she can buy a pound of food. In the future, the little rich woman of Paradise will lose a pound.

So when faced with Xu Yue's proposal, she only thought about it for a few seconds and then nodded decisively.

"Have we agreed, then tomorrow I will prepare some enrichment foods that can be kept fresh for a long time to find Ah Fu!"

"Okay, let Ah Fu arrange a separate container for you in the store. You can set the price yourself. You will get whatever you sell."

"Hey, don't you need a share?"

"Sharing? That little money is not necessary, just use it to expand the source of goods for the store."

Listening to Xu Yue's nonchalant tone, Xia stopped insisting and just nodded like a chicken pecking at rice. Even his slightly bright pupils seemed to be shining with the luster of money.

Although the amount of ingredients used by Xu Yue and Su Xiao to offset the cost of the meal is not large, the fresh flesh and blood of either purple quality or lord-level creatures, after being processed by her cooking skills, can bring nearly five digits of paradise currency income.

For Xia, who is often struggling on the edge of bankruptcy, this is definitely a huge sum of money!

"Then I'm not welcome, haha~"

After finishing the order with the dealer in just a few words, Xu Yue glanced at Xia who was having fun not far away. Xu Yue thought about it, and then looked sideways at Su Xiao.

"Anyway, a sheep is being herded, and a group of sheep is being driven. Do I need to leave a separate container for you in the furnace shop? The same conditions apply. Whether it is alchemy products or captured equipment and props, you are only responsible for pricing. The rest can be left to Ah Fu.”

After the words fell, Su Xiao, who was still eating silently beside him, couldn't help but be stunned when he heard the words, but after thinking about it carefully, he was indeed a little tempted.

In fact, Su Xiao also had the idea of ​​opening an alchemy shop when he knew about the benefits of opening a shop. However, after considering the troubles and the large amount of time and resources required to run a shop, he finally gave up. This tempting option.

However, the sales proposal from Xu Yue is not bad. He still has some understanding of the popularity of the furnace and forging shop. Although it is definitely far insufficient compared with the trading market, digesting the alchemy products he made is definitely More than enough.

Of course, it would be more advantageous for him to sell those high-value items by himself, while the rest can be thrown into the furnace and forging shop for unified sale. This can save him a lot of time for skill training. In this paradise city, survival time is also a precious resource.

"Yes, are there any restrictions on the quantity or type of goods?"

"No, you can do whatever you want. It's just a matter of adding a container. Whether it's the specific pricing or quantity and variety, it's up to you to decide. You can communicate with Ah Fu for the specific details. He is responsible for the operation of the furnace. I basically don't care about these. ”

"……good."

After a few seconds of silence, Su Xiao slowly nodded, glanced at the person on the other side who had a casual look on his face, and then looked sideways at a certain Erha next to him who was eating a big meal. For the first time, he felt a sense of hatred. A strange feeling that is not made of steel.

Looking at other people's followers, even a huge shop can be run in an orderly manner and make a lot of money every day. But if it were replaced by Bubu, it would be quite difficult not to tear the entire shop into ruins within three days. Restrained.

If there is a chance later, he can recruit a servant or familiar like Afu who is good at management, which should save him a lot of trouble.

And if he remembered correctly, the other party seemed to have a lucky fish summon.

Wait, lucky you!

Thinking of this, Su Xiao's movements suddenly froze, and the hundreds of treasure boxes of various colors harvested in the previous world quickly appeared in his mind. So far, these treasure boxes are still placed in his savings space. It has not yet been opened. If you can get the lucky blessing of the fish summon, coupled with the European Emperor status given by the Destiny Redemption Lighter, the final profit of the treasure chest will definitely be far beyond imagination.

"Xinhuo, can your lucky fish summon add a buff status to others?"

"What? Want to borrow it?"

Before Su Xiao had finished speaking, Xu Yue had directly guessed the other party's real purpose and touched his chin. If it was just for borrowing, he wouldn't mind taking a temporary job for his Wengui to earn extra money.

"Okay! You can borrow it if you want, but you have to take care of the food."

Beside the dining table, Su Xiao was slightly startled after hearing this. The more readily the other party agreed, the more ominous a feeling he had in his heart that he was about to be cheated.

"Well, what does it feed on?"

The corner of his mouth curled up, and Xu Yue's tone was particularly determined: "Soul crystal!"

"Don't worry, a small one will do."

"Are you serious..."

"Wen Ray can increase your luck by 4 to 5 points..."

"Deal! I'll cover the food!"

Without any hesitation, after learning about Wen Ray's ability, Su Xiao, who was still a little hesitant just now, immediately nodded in agreement. You must know that the destiny redemption in his hands only increased his luck by 3 points.

Adding up the two, there were a total of 7 points of lucky blessings. He had a hunch that he would usher in a wave of flash wealth next.
