A white fox is speeding across the vast plains.
The palace was open day and night, and they traveled continuously under the stars and moon.
All four claws were jet black.
Finally, on the morning of the fourth day, Gong Kai returned to the Star Pivot Immortal Fox King City.
Standing on the land of the royal city, it excitedly stomped its feet, casting a cleaning spell on itself.
It was about to meet its idol, Boss Zhao, and it was a little nervous.
A moment later.
A clean, glossy, snow-white fox came to the riverbank.
Gong Kai stood in front of the Spicy Palace, politely raised his paw, and knocked on the door.
He then used his head to push the door open and crawled inside.
As soon as it entered, it saw its idol, Boss Zhao.
Gong Kai stood up excitedly and clasped his hands in a salute.
"Boss Zhao, I'm salesman number 007. I'm here to deliver spirit stones and pick up a [lunch box voucher]."
Zhao Ziyi's eyes were full of smiles. He had seen this little fox in the Star Pivot Mirror before. She was very good at sales techniques, able to judge the situation and seize any opportunity. In just one day, she sold out all 30 membership cards.
"Fellow Daoist, is your name Gong Kai? Come with me, I'll register you."
When Gong Kai heard Zhao Ziyi's words, his head buzzed. His idol actually knew his name!
Spicy Palace has so many foxes, but Boss Zhao just happened to call out his own name!
Gong Kai straightened his chest, a feeling of pride and excitement welling up inside him.
The two, a human and a fox, climbed the stairs and ascended to the third floor of the Spicy Palace.
At this moment, a faint fragrance wafted through the third floor of the Spicy Palace, and the rich aroma wafted over.
You can still hear the sizzling sound of stir-frying.
This was the first time Gong Kai had smelled this scent, and he couldn't help but lick his hairy lips.
"Mr. Zhao, is this the aroma of tea?"
Zhao Ziyi nodded and smiled:
"Yes, Song Chen was stir-frying tea. You could smell it? You've had tea before?"
Gong Kai nodded:
"Many literati and scholars enjoy making friends over tea. I've been to tea parties with my elder brother before and had tea once or twice. But this is the first time I've ever smelled such a fragrant tea."
Tea, as a brewed medicinal ingredient, is very popular among cultivators.
Especially the Spirit Tea, when brewed and drunk, has the same effect as the Spirit-Replenishing Pill.
Drinking Qiling tea is a symbol of a cultivator's status and position.
Zhao Ziyi chatted with Gong Kai for a while and learned a lot from him.
It turns out that in the True Treasure Continent, there are specialized tea merchants, and tea is also a way for most growers to make money.
Zhao Ziyi found this somewhat amusing, as sword cultivators were the poorest group on the True Treasure Continent.
When Song Chen came out of the kitchen wearing an apron, she saw Zhao Ziyi sitting in a chair, chatting enthusiastically with a fox.
Hearing a sound behind him, Zhao Ziyi quickly turned around and called out to Song Chen.
"Come quick, this is Salesman No. 007, Gong Kai. We saw him before in the Ancestor's Star Pivot Mirror. He's a very good salesman."
Song Chen smiled, walked to the table, and sat down. He was carrying a tray in his hand.
On the tray were four cups of murky liquid, prepared according to Zhao Ziyi's recipe.
Gong Kai twitched his nose and thought the smell was really fragrant, with the aroma of tea and milk.
It opened its eyes wide and looked at Zhao Ziyi.
"Mr. Zhao, what is this?"
Zhao Ziyi took out several small wine glasses from his storage bag and poured the liquid from one of the glasses into the other.
"This is a new product that Spicy Palace is about to launch. Why don't you try it and give me some feedback?"
Gong Kai's expression froze. He suddenly felt an immense weight on his shoulders. This was no ordinary murky liquid; it was Boss Zhao's trust in him!
Although the liquid looked like muddy water from puddles after rain.
But Gong Kai raised his fox head and drank the liquid in one gulp.
The expected foul smell did not appear.
The rich and mellow flavor filled my mouth; the thick milk flavor paired with the refreshing tea aroma. Gong Kai closed his mouth and discovered a chewy, soft little ball.
"Mr. Zhao, what kind of ball is this?"
"You've ordered the first one, the classic bubble tea. It comes with small snacks called 'pearls,' which you can eat. How does it taste?"
Gong Kai nodded:
"Delicious! This is the first time I've ever had such a unique tea drink. After the rich milk flavor comes the tea aroma, and after the soft texture comes the chewy tapioca pearls."
Zhao Ziyi nodded in satisfaction; it seemed everyone had a similar sense of taste.
"Try a few of the following."
Gong Kai drank one cup after another.
They are essentially the same liquid, but they taste completely different.
The second tea drink had a more delicate fragrance than regular tea leaves. Boss Zhao named it Coconut Oolong.
The third tea drink has a sweet and sour fruit flavor and is called Grape Green Milk.
The fourth tea drink has an even more unique flavor. After the milk and tea flavors, your mouth is filled with the aroma of grains. This tea drink contains a little bit of strong liquor and is called Drunken Dragon Well.
After finishing these four cups of milk tea, Gong Kai looked up to the sky and sighed:
"If I hadn't met Boss Zhao in this life, I would never have been able to enter these fields!"
Zhao Ziyi looked a little embarrassed. How could a cup of milk tea suddenly evoke such profound emotions?
He looked at Gong Kai and smiled:
"Does this milk tea have the flavor you're looking for?"
Gong Kai nodded: "Yes, it has the same aroma as the beef cubes."
Zhao Ziyi smiled with satisfaction. It seemed that the tea leaves that Song Chen had personally processed also possessed a certain chaotic quality.
He looked at Gong Kai and said seriously:
"Gong Kai, I want to entrust the milk tea business to your salesperson."
This time, I will give you 90 membership card packages.
Once this batch of membership cards is sold out, we will no longer issue membership cards.
It will probably be several years before new members are recruited again.
The salespeople's next task is to stand guard at the border and sell milk tea. Do you agree with this plan?
Gong Kai's expression also became serious.
"Boss Zhao, we salesmen all have very low cultivation levels."
If one were to travel back and forth between the border and the capital, most of the time would likely be wasted on the journey.
Zhao Ziyi smiled and patted Gong Kai on the shoulder:
"Don't worry about that. I will prepare enough goods for you to sell for a year, so you won't have to travel back and forth."
All you need to do is return to the royal city every year, hand over the spirit stones, and receive new tea leaves.
If that's the case, would you be willing to sell milk tea?
Gong Kai wagged his tail, his eyes filled with determination:
"I'm willing! If Boss Zhao needs me, I'll definitely do it!"
Zhao Ziyi's eyes were full of smiles:
"I won't treat you unfairly. From now on, salespeople will also have a fixed salary."
You will receive 5 jin of tea and 40 jin of snacks each year as your annual salary.
Gong Kai's face was full of surprise:
"Mr. Zhao, am I now a permanent employee of Spicy Palace?"
"Of course! If you agree, you can collect your tea set when you come back after this membership card sale is complete."
Gong Kai looked satisfied upon hearing this, and even as he left, he had a smug expression on his face.
He's going to become a full-time employee!
This time, we left Spicy Palace.
Gong Kai found 90 more membership card packages in his storage bag.
It also earned 30 extra boxed meals, which was its wage.
Gong Kai excitedly left the riverbank.
It wanted to go back to the fox den and tell its two older brothers the good news!
