Chapter 25 The Poor Man’s Rose(1/2)
"This...is not good..."
Xia looked at Lebu Beyala with a strange expression, and saw the eager Lebu Beyala in front of her, even though her logical thinking was not very ideal.
But through the baptism of 'strategy' given by Bai Ye, and the long-term contact with Baha, she also realized that something was wrong.
She knew her own business. As an employee, she was not good at fighting, and she was not very courageous. She had no intention of running around in such a turbulent situation.
"I said, Xia, what are you still hesitating about? I think this is totally fine. Look, this guy is also a famous plot star..."
On the other hand, Hei Changzhi next to him was not only winking crazily, he even put his chin on Xia's back and whispered something.
"Chef Xia, if you have any concerns, you can just tell me. Being my gourmet partner does not require you to capture ingredients or participate in battles. You only need to cook delicious food."
Wang Changle quickly sensed Xia Yi's inner worries from the "worry" emotion emanating from her. He glanced at Hei Changzhi, and as he spoke, he took out dozens of gourmet gold coins from his purse and stacked them on the bar.
These gourmet gold coins are both ingredients and commonly used currency in gourmet casinos. Each one is worth one million yen.
This scene immediately made Hei Chang straighten, and the smile in her eyes became stronger. The value of these gourmet gold coins was as much as what she had harvested in several days.
"In addition, madam, these are some greeting gifts. If you need help, I can also support you."
"Although it is very presumptuous, I still want to ask, Mr. Lebubeyala, why did you choose me? If it is about cooking, Tailan, who is good at poisonous cuisine, seems to be more suitable for you."
Xia looked at Wang Changle, who had a sincere face, and then turned off the stove and transferred the stewed dolphin and rhinoceros meat in the pot to the Demon Holy Bronze Ware. An alluring aroma of meat suddenly filled the air.
It is the smell of high-quality fat melting in the air, with a rare mature fragrance, which makes people very appetizing just by smelling it.
"Of course, if it is a banned ingredient, I will definitely choose Tailan's, but now I need a chef who can handle soapy fruit."
[Warning: Hunters are prohibited from harming or controlling employees? Xia. This is a key protection object of the park.]
Wang Changle looked at Paradise's reminder and immediately gave up his plan to use Bo Xun's desire control. After softening his tone, he fully released his charm.
In fact, before coming here, he had already confirmed his whereabouts during the past few days through the tracking and monitoring of Springer and the men in black. There was no adventure group behind him.
Looking at the shimmering meat in the pot made Wang Changle even more determined to find Xia as his gourmet partner.
He has seen many workers, but this is the first time that the paradise has recognized him as a key protected object and warned him as a predator.
There must be special value in Xia that he had not noticed. Now Wang Changle was no longer satisfied with just letting Xia be his gourmet partner. He even had the idea of investing and making friends in his heart.
"Hey, you mean, the soap bubble fruit from Shirinji Temple?"
Xia calmed down, with a rare surprise in her tone. Although the behavior of 'Lebu Beyala' in front of her was beyond her knowledge, it also aroused her interest.
Although she doesn't like fighting by nature and doesn't want to participate in any adventure group fights, she is very interested in cooking.
Cooking unknown ingredients and studying recipes has always been her favorite thing. Century soup is her current goal, but the dreamy ingredient such as soap bubble fruit is also one of the ingredients Xia is looking forward to.
The moment Xia came up, Hei Changzhi beside him suddenly woke up, and his eyes looking at Wang Changle became hesitant.
The leaning body slowly stood in front of Xia. Even though she knew that the plot line was broken, it was very different from the character setting of 'Lebu Beyala' that she knew.
"Xia, you..."
"Yes, it's not just the Soap Bubble Fruit, but the Shirin Temple has a 'food meaning', which must also be able to help Xia, you improve your cooking skills, and I will take care of the methods and paths to enter the Shirin Temple."
Wang Changle did not look at Hei Changzhi, who was like a wary kitten. Since Xia came here to compete in order to crack the 'Soup of the Century', it shows that the cook is a worker with a craftsman spirit.
Ever since he saw the warning from the paradise, he had been prepared for his identity to be discovered. Since he couldn't achieve his goal through mind control, he had to use profit induction.
Wang Changle, who controls the gourmet casino, now has enough capital. As long as he is still in the paradise and is not a pure lunatic, no one will have trouble with the interests.
"This...I'll think about it..."
Xia supported the countertop and looked at the fireworks blooming in the night sky. Although he knew that the identity of the person in front of him was a mystery, he also began to think about his proposal.
‘Food Yi’ is one of the unique abilities in this world. It does not require high physical fitness. With her current physical attributes, she can fully learn it and it will greatly improve the chef’s cooking ability.
With the improvement of her food sense, she would not have to work so hard in the future, whether it was making the high-end ingredients brought back by Bai Ye or Eminem's feast, which really made her excited.
"In this way, if Xia agrees, you can use all the ingredients in the gourmet casino as you like. After the event is completed, this knife will be regarded as your reward."
Seeing that Xia was already attracted, Wang Changle immediately pursued the victory, took out the Melk Blade and displayed its attributes.
When drawing up the notarized contract, he also put all the recipes of white, green and blue quality on the bar.
"Of course, if you have other concerns, we can also sign a fair contract for the paradise. These recipes are considered as a deposit and my sincerity. I can protect your safety in this world. All the terms are written into the contract."
"Okay, no problem, I'll sign."
Xia looked at the golden knife on the table, then looked at the recipes, and thought of the memory of food, the meaning of food, and the conditions offered by Wang Changle. Xia felt that a gift package of happiness had hit him, and he wanted to sign the contract immediately.
"Xia, didn't you say that you still need to think about it? Also, this guy is not Leib Beyala at first glance..."
Hei Chang looked straight at his friend with a bright smile and reminded him.
"I am indeed not 'Lebu Beara'. You can call me Odd or Faceless, but in this derivative world, I am Lebu Beara. In this way, Xia, as long as you sign the contract, this knife will now
You can trade.”
Wang Changle spread his hands, and after introducing himself, he immediately increased the stakes again and initiated a transaction application.
"To be honest, I don't want to sign it, but I can't help it. He gave me too much."
Xia, enjoying the caress of the night breeze, gave Hei Changzhi a reassuring look, took the knife and recipe, and quickly completed the contract.
Absorbing food memories allows her to overcome the problem of soup of the century and enrich her experience; learning the meaning of food can improve her cooking ability; the golden table knife can improve her ability to handle ingredients.
Learning recipes can not only save her half-dead shop, but also strengthen the development of recipes. She has no reason not to sign the contract.
"Okay, the contract has been signed. I have something, Chef Xia, can you help me with? I have some ingredients..."
[Reminder: You have signed a fair contract with employee 15053,]
Wang Changle looked at the contract that had come into effect, glanced at Hei Changzhi who walked to the garden to drink wine, and then took out Nitromi from the space.
Choosing Xia as his gourmet partner was not just for the sake of soap berries. Cooking nitolomi was also one of Wang Changle's goals. Although this thing cannot be used for secondary production, after all, it is also a kind of food.
After all, what cannot be changed is the permanent gain of Effect 2, not the ingredients themselves. If the ingredients can be given a temporary gain through cooking, it will give Nitolomi more uses.
"Do you think it is possible to increase the temporary status of it by cooking it without destroying the life energy, or to make it edible during battle?"
"Nitolomi, a permanent buff?! I want to study this thing carefully. Mr. Odd, is there any need for a buff state?"
Xia held the palm-sized pale golden tassel in her hand, smelled the refreshing sweetness, and her eyes lit up for this unknown ingredient.
She remembered how she had learned about the 'rice-making' technique when she entered the stable world of a 'food supplier' some time ago, and she immediately thought of several different dishes in her mind.
"Well, you can research it. If it's possible in terms of gain status, it would be best to have abilities that increase movement speed or nerve reaction speed."
Wang Changle nodded and glanced at Xia, who was busy studying recipes. The success of his many days of planning made him more energetic. He opened the bench and sat across from Hei Changzhi.
Accompanied by the gentle evening breeze, looking at the sky full of stars and scattered fireworks from the mountains, the moment I finish pulling the crisp and slightly sour rolled almonds in the bowl, and drink the red wine orris in one gulp.
That long-lost sense of comfort gave him the illusion of returning to the Yunding Villa Observation Deck. His thoughts kept wandering, and he didn't know what Wang Wei was doing in Heiyuan now.
"Dong dong~dong~dong!"
After an unknown amount of time, the sound of hammering came to his ears, instantly pulling him back from his thoughts.
As soon as he raised his eyes, he saw Xia Zheng rhythmically rubbing something in the rising steam, while Hei Changzhi disappeared somewhere.
Wang Changle smelled the sweet and refreshing rice fragrance, and with the dull beating sound, not only did it not weaken in the slightest, but it became more intense. He knew that Xia had found the right way to cook.
After stretching, he turned to check the attributes of the three recipes he had harvested before:
