Chapter 018 Recruitment and Expansion
The screen reflected by the ice stone was flowing quietly. Inside the screen, Bob's face looked extremely ugly. The wrinkles formed by the fat on his face could kill a few flies. Lin Muqiu couldn't help laughing.
This is a medicine she mixed herself. It smells very fragrant, but it will explode when it comes into contact with flour and other substances.
This isn't better than the movie!
Yun Yi sat aside and saw her smiling face, which made him even happier. He even fanned her harder. In fact, the owner had told him not to do so, but he just wanted to do something for her.
He simply wanted her to be happy.
As the breeze blew by, Lin Muqiu glanced at Yun Yi, who was as hardworking as a bee, patted his head like he was patting a dog, and then continued to curl up on the sofa, eating potato chips and watching the farce, feeling extremely comfortable.
This gift is worth it! It’s worth coming to this alien world!
This reminded her of her past life, when her biggest wish was to take a break and watch the movies she had been stockpiling for a long time while eating potato chips.
I didn't expect that my wish would come true in this way.
It turns out that workaholics also need to rest.
Life is not a bow that is always open.
She stretched, saved the video and edited the footage, then continued to stare at what was happening on the screen.

Bob's face was covered with the debris from the broken pot, and he looked extremely ugly, especially when he turned his head and found Mario standing far away, his body spotless, which made him even more unhappy.
Seeing his dismal expression, Mario quickly explained, "Maybe the ratio or the steps are wrong. Don't worry, you can't get it right the first time."
After that, he wrote another recipe and handed it over, "Try this."
After receiving the new formula, Bob's expression eased a little, but for some reason, his heart was pounding and he was still a little uneasy.
This time he learned his lesson and stood almost eighty meters away from the big pot. Fortunately, nothing happened and the fresh mashed potatoes came out of the oven soon. The aroma and milky flavor made people look forward to it.
Bob's expression brightened slightly, and he looked at the mashed potatoes that were almost the same as Lin Muqiu's, with a look of satisfaction.
He really missed the food made by Lin Muqiu. It had to be said that it was difficult for him to buy it because of their relationship, which made him very anxious.
Thinking of this, he picked up the spoon and scooped a spoonful to taste it.
However, when the spoon was only a few centimeters away from his mouth, he suddenly stopped, turned his head and said to Mario and Andrew, who were smiling, "Since this is the first result, of course you two should eat it. Thank you for your hard work."
Andrew scratched his head. He had a bad temper but was not a big shot, so he took the small bowl and quickly finished it. He laughed as he ate, "It's really delicious. It's almost the same as Lin Muqiu's."
However, just as he finished speaking, Bob kicked him fiercely, and he realized what he had said and quickly shut up.
Mario took it without hesitation and started eating. Bob stared at him closely, trying to find some clues.
However, the other party ate with big mouthfuls and looked at him puzzledly, making him think that he was overthinking.
He always felt that the other party seemed to be plotting something bad.
The three of them chatted for about ten minutes. Seeing that nothing was wrong, Bob picked up the spoon and took a small sip. He felt the delicate and smooth taste melting into his mouth like sugar, and he couldn't help but reveal an obsessed expression.
Yes, that’s the taste, that’s the taste!
Feeling happy, his mouth became more greedy. He ate one bite after another, feeling satisfied and unable to stop, as if he was afraid that others would snatch the food from him.
Andrew: “…”
I hate double standards.
Finally, Bob wiped his mouth gracefully and pretended nothing happened. "Very good, we will try another recipe tomorrow."
After seeing Andrew and Mario off, he lay back on the bed.
It was a really pleasant day.
But what's going on with this sudden stomachache?
*
The next day, Bob waited for Andrew and Mario with his tired body.
The faces of the three of them all turned a little green.
Bob asked sheepishly, "You guys were out all night too?"
"Hmm." Mario lowered his head, looking embarrassed. "Maybe there's something wrong. I'll definitely try a new recipe."
Hearing this, Andrew's heart trembled, and he quickly waved his hands and said, "No, no, why don't we just steal the formula? I'm really afraid of you."
Bob took a deep breath and said, "Why not try both? Mario, you try the new formula. Meanwhile, Andrew, you take Ampere and look for where Lin Muqiu hid the real formula."
The two responded, and Bob, clutching his stomach, reluctantly said, "Okay, if there's nothing else, let's go."
After saying that, he rushed to the toilet, walking so fast that he almost floated up.
Andrew: “…”
Mario couldn't help but sigh that this was retribution in this life. Who told him not to pay much attention to food health in the past?
But fortunately, I have the antidote.
*
After Bob tried the recipe given to him by Mario countless times, he experienced a variety of experiences, such as being blown into an afro head, his tongue being numb from being frozen, and losing his sense of taste.
He even suspected that Mario was playing tricks on him on purpose. However, when he saw Mario's harmless face, scratching his head with an apologetic look on his face, he began to doubt whether he had made a mistake.
After all, the other party also ate those foods every time.
Finally one day he couldn't stand it anymore, so he called Mario and Andrew over and said with a stern face, "Let's steal the secret recipe now... right now. I can't stand it for another day."
Andrew glanced at Bob, then at his stomach. "Okay, we've already stepped on it. You should take care of yourself first."
After saying that, Andrew covered his nose again, leaving everything unsaid.
Bob: “…”
Lin Muqiu, who was behind the screen, couldn't help but sigh when he saw this scene.
The other party's fox tail can finally be hidden.
Then she has to create time and space for the other party.
She walked out of the store without hesitation and walked around a few times, but was afraid of appearing too deliberate, so she went to the temporary workers.
The temporary workers were Auxun and Philip, whose main job was to help her turn the fertile soil in the backyard.
She planned to plant modern seeds in the soil to see the results. She couldn't rely entirely on Lind's supply. Their supply was collected from collectors in the town. Summer natural disasters would cause natural crops to die quickly in the later stages of heat, which might also make her supply unstable.
Unstable supply is a big taboo. She feels it is necessary to grow crops, be self-sufficient, and ensure the most basic needs.
More importantly, modern seeds have high yields, which may be of great use when there is a shortage of food and money due to natural disasters in winter. In this world, seed yields are low, and large tracts of land are abandoned, which really makes her sad.
The influence of Chinese civilization engraved in her DNA has made her particularly fond of storing food and building high walls, and the sense of crisis has always been engraved in her heart.
However, because she has been paying attention to Bob's affairs recently, this is her first time here since she gave the task to the temporary worker.
Although it was her first time here, she noticed something unusual from a distance.
Her expression lit up with joy, and she quickly hid in the bushes, opening the ice stone to record the scene.
Including Bob's share, double the melon, double the evidence, double the happiness.
What she recorded was the shoving and pushing conflict between Auxun and Philip:
Aoxun threw the hoe away and pushed Philip in anger. "Why have I been doing all this work these days? Are you acting like a big shot here? You take other people's wages and do nothing. How can you be ashamed..."
Philip was sitting on the grass nearby, idly chewing on some grass. He made a loud "Puh" sound and slapped him in the face. "I advise you to be smart! Don't think you can sit back and relax just because your brother has landed Lin Muqiu's long-term job. Wait until my boss Bob steals the formula. Do you think he'll kill you all?!"
"Why are you talking about my brother?" Aoxun covered his face and trembled even more violently. "Do you dare to kill people?"
"Why wouldn't I dare?!" Philip sneered, "How do you think so many people disappeared for no reason?"
"You...you..." Aoxun pointed at him, his fingertips trembling. At this moment, he only hated himself for being tongue-tied and not knowing how to reply.
You say to him: Really? Who are they?
Suddenly, a gentle voice came into his mind, causing Oxun to hesitate for a moment.
This is……
The voice of store manager Lin Muqiu!
His heart suddenly started beating wildly, like a wronged child meeting an adult, and he felt a backbone in his heart.
I heard that some people have very high magic power, which can cover every area for supervision and can also transmit messages through the air.
He calmed down and said to Philip, "Really?! You must be lying to me. Who are they?"
Philip sneered and stood up. "The Shamans to the west, the Russells to the east, and the Lola family quite close to you... Haha, let me tell you the truth! Today, regardless of whether my boss stole the formula or not, I'm going to take action! You, your brother, Mario, and even that Lin Muqiu, all must die! But your deaths are quite dignified. It's really good enough to make my boss, Bob, mobilize all the members to attack."
He spoke eloquently, with confidence and determination to win, and he was not worried about anything else. After all, he did not think that an ice mage could withstand the siege of seven or eight people.
"Well, it's a dignified death indeed. All the members of the group will die in unison."
Suddenly, a voice suddenly appeared behind him.
Philip frowned suddenly and turned around slowly.
Lin Muqiu was seen holding the ice stone and smiling gently.
"Manager!" Aoxun was very excited.
Philip suddenly trembled a little, and his tone was not so firm, "Lin Muqiu! You, you, I warn you not to think about attacking me, my boss can still spare your life..."
Lin Muqiu cast a spell to freeze him without hesitation.
Since ancient times, supporting characters have died because of talking too much.
"Please drag him to the mayor, thank you, please take the main road." Lin Muqiu smiled at Aoxun.
Aoxun was a little flattered, "Okay, okay."
However, before he could finish his words, Lin Muqiu teleported away.
He still had to go to Mario's place, so he just happened to collect the net on the way.
She is good at time management.

After Bob sent Mario and Andrew to steal the formula, they immediately returned to their usual place.
The three of them chatted and laughed, just like normal times.
Mario, however, was keenly aware of a hint of unease. "Hey, Boss? Why aren't you in a good mood? Why don't you try the new recipe?"
Bob smiled and said, "My stomach is a little intolerant, let's wait a little longer."
"Oh, okay." Mario sat down, feeling even more uneasy.
The room was getting more and more crowded. Many of Bob's accomplices who had been hiding in the streets had arrived. Several of them were chattering, as if discussing something. This made Mario nervous, and he tried to smile, "Boss, what's going on today?"
"Of course I have," Bob smiled slightly, his eyes full of malice, "You made me have diarrhea for so long, of course you have to pay the price."
Mario stood up suddenly, still trying to maintain a smile, "What are you talking about, boss?"
"I say," Bob said, his eyes filled with the madness of a rabid dog, "I want you to die."
"Calm down," Mario gritted his teeth and said calmly, "He's an ice mage who's highly regarded by the mayor!"
"It doesn't matter. It's even better if she comes," Bob sneered. "It'll make it easier for me to collect her body!"
"I'm here, I'm here..." Lin Muqiu panted heavily and teleported in front of everyone, looking serious. "I heard you were looking for me?"
Several people stared at each other, and the scene was a little frozen.
How come he really came!
