The new price of Magic Fish Restaurant has been widely circulated on Weibo, with mixed reviews. Some people think it is too expensive, while those who have eaten there think that Magic Fish Restaurant has reduced its prices. The haters are jumping around and scolding the owner for being black-hearted.
They are not afraid of being on the blacklist, and they have no intention of eating there in the first place. It doesn't matter whether they are on the blacklist or not. They just want to feel good about scolding.
At dinner time, Jiu Jiu took the time to post a Weibo.
藺玖v: "First floor dishes: 6998 yuan/person (four dishes), customers who want to eat can arrange it."
The comment area is full of "..."
"What happened to Boss 藺? Suddenly I feel that he is very short of money."
"Yes, yes, he was very lazy when he opened the store before, and he was never diligent when he could be lazy."
"I want to arrange it, but I can't! @藺玖"
"Boss 藺, don't go, are you and Qiu Yuqian really a couple? @藺玖"
"Is the queen of singing really your mother? @藺玖"
藺九 didn't have time to read the comments, he was thinking about what dinner to prepare for Si Xu.
The set meal on the second floor must be different from the first floor, and the consumption level is also different.
After thinking about it, Jiu decided to go upstairs to ask Si Xu what price range he wanted to eat. He couldn't choose the consumption level for customers.
Jiu went up to the second floor and Si Xu was talking on the phone. Jiu waited for Si Xu to hang up before he went in and asked him what price range of set meal he wanted to eat.
Si Xu: "What price set meal do you think I need?"
Without thinking, Lu Jiu said, "It's best to have a set meal with little blue demons."
Si Xu: "Then this set meal." Lu Jiu:
"Wait a moment."
Si Xu: "I can wait, so can I dine with you?"
Lu Jiu paused, "Yes, but I may be a little late."
Si Xu: "Okay, I'll wait for you."
Lu Jiu did not go downstairs directly, but went to the third floor, entered the super smart kitchen, and took down some unprepared ingredients. He wanted to make a set meal with little blue demons for Si Xu.
While processing the ingredients, Lu Jiu asked the system: What is Si Xu's physical strength? When can I use the primary gene enhancer?
[Detecting special constitution requires 10 magic points. Do you want to detect it? 】
藺九: ...
藺九: That's enough, don't be so mean, didn't the magic points be deducted in the previous test?
[You also know it was 'before'? You ate yesterday, will you eat again today? 】
藺九: ...
藺九 inhaled: I don't have any magic points.
[Then don't test, just give it to him directly, he won't die anyway. 】
藺九: Didn't you say it would be painful?
[Of course it would hurt, he suffers from illness every day and it's painful, it's also painful to use gene enhancers directly, you would rather suffer a short pain than a long one, you are so hesitant about him, do you want to wait until he dies before giving him the medicine? 】
藺九: ...
What should I do if I feel angry?
藺九 gritted his teeth: You also said it would harm the body!
[It will be damaged, can't you just use the magic meal to replenish it later?]
Lu Jiu: If it wasn't for reducing damage and pain, would I have waited until now?
Lu Jiu suddenly paused. The last time the system talked to him, it clearly didn't have this attitude. Why can it be used casually this time?
Lu Jiu thought for a moment and asked tentatively: In fact, his physical strength is already close to 10, right?
[Do you think I will tell you unconditionally?]
Lu Jiu: Your attitude has already told me.
[Don't dream, you can't get something for nothing from me.]
Lu Jiu: Okay, even if Si Xu's physical strength is not 10, it should be 9.
[……]
Lu Jiu: Well, it's true that you can consider giving him medicine.
[……]
Lu Jiu: Fortunately, I am smart, otherwise I would have been cheated out of 10 points of magic.
[You are not smart, you are poor! You don’t even have 10 points of magic, what’s the use of you! ]
Lu Jiu: No matter how much magic I have, it’s your ability to cheat, and it’s my ability if I can’t.
[……]
The system was silent for a long time, Lu Jiu felt refreshed, and finally won the argument.
[I’m going to raise the price! ]
Lu Jiu: ...
Okay, you win.
Lu Jiu is cutting the small blue demon tentacles, carefully cutting off the suction cups and keeping them for display.
The customer at the bar spotted and recognized the tentacles and was surprised: "Is this an octopus tentacle? So big?!"
Jiu replied vaguely, no matter whether it is a little blue devil or an octopus, it is a soft-bodied seafood with many legs.
The customer looked at his set meal, "Why is there no octopus tentacle in my set meal?"
He looked at the customer next to him, "Does your set meal have octopus tentacle?"
Other customers said that they did not eat octopus tentacle either.
"What's going on?" The customer asked.
Without looking up, Lu Jiu skillfully cut with his tentacles, "The set meal on the first floor does not include this ingredient."
"Is there such a rule? If it's not on the first floor, then is it on the second floor? Isn't the second floor closed?"
Lu Jiu: "A customer has already been upgraded to the second floor."
The customers: "..."
They really want to see who the boss is and learn from him how he managed to break through the siege of competing for seats and ordering restrictions and successfully upgrade to the second floor? Aren't they eating the same seafood? Why is the gap between people so big? !
"Doesn't that mean the customers on the second floor can't eat octopus tentacles?"
Rujiu glanced at the man, "You can eat them. Do you want them?"
The customer immediately said, "I prefer squid and octopus. Cut me a plate."
Rujiu carefully put the cut tentacles into the plate, "This ingredient costs 500,000 yuan per pound. Are you sure you want a plate?"
Customer: “…”
Customer: “??!!!!”
Customer: “!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”
Customer: “Are you serious? Is it really 500,000 per pound?”
Lu Jiu raised his eyelids, “Absolutely true.”
Customer: “…”
Customer: “…Forget it, I can’t afford it.”
Someone curiously asked: “What kind of octopus is this? Why is it so expensive?”
Lu Jiu said: “It has a relatively high nutritional value. It can improve immunity and delay the aging of the body. The ingredients are scarce, so it is relatively expensive.”
The customers understood that the reason why the food at the Magic Fish Shop is so delicious, in addition to the craftsmanship of the boss Lu, the most important thing is the ingredients.
Good ingredients will naturally enhance the food.
Lu Jiu carried two trays to the second floor. Si Xu was looking at his mobile phone with a serious expression.
Lu Jiu put a tray in front of Si Xu.
Si Xu put away his phone and looked at his tray. There were six dishes in total, very rich. He looked at Lu Jiu's tray again. There were only two dishes, one was silver fish sashimi, and the other was blanched blue devil.
"Are you full with this little?" Si Xu pushed his tray to the center of the wooden table.
Lu Jiu pushed the tray back to him, "I've had enough. You should eat more so that you can be healthy."
Si Xu paused, "Okay."
Lu Jiu couldn't stay on the second floor all the time. Whenever someone came to pay the bill or to find the boss, he would go downstairs. In just one dinner, he had already run upstairs and downstairs twice.
When Lu Jiu came back for the third time, Si Xu had not eaten yet and was waiting for him.
"Have you heard of the Liao family in City B?"
Lu Jiu shook her head, "No."
Wen Qin had just called Si Xu, and he found out that the family that had suppressed the news was the Liao family in City B. The Liao family had been doing business for generations and was very influential in City B. Si Xu couldn't understand why the Liao family would suddenly intervene in this matter. Si
Xu cared about this matter very much...or rather, he cared about everything about Lu Jiu.
Some old stories are not easy for ordinary people to dig up, but if the "Special Security Department" were to investigate, they should have an answer soon.
Si Xu was thinking about it when his cell phone rang again. He took a look and frowned.
This was the first time that Lu Yu called him personally, and Si Xu had a hunch that it was not a good thing.
Sure enough, as soon as the call was connected, Lu Yu asked him where he was.
Si Xu: "I'm at the Magic Fish Shop."
There was a bit of noise on Lu Yu's side, and the sound of sirens was shrill. "That's great. Something is heading towards the West City Old Street. Our people are chasing it. That thing will bite people. Some people have been injured. If you find it, control it and try to capture it alive..."
"What thing?" Si Xu interrupted him.
"Now no one knows what it is. Some people say it's a fish, and some say it's a monster. It went into the sewer..."
Si Xu hung up the phone and stood up to leave.
"What's wrong?" Lu Jiu stood up as well.
"Something escaped, and the 'Special Security Department' is trying to catch it." Si Xu finished speaking and hurried downstairs.
Lu Jiu was stunned for a moment, and followed him. Something that could mobilize the "Special Security Department" was definitely not an ordinary event.
The customers on the first floor were still discussing which boss was promoted to the second floor when they saw a tall man wearing a black mask walking quickly towards the door. Boss Ru followed behind him, his steps a little hurried.
Customer: "..."
Is he trying to escape after eating a free meal, and Boss Ru is going to chase him?
In front of the cashier, a male customer scanned the code to complete the payment and wanted to leave, but was stopped by Ru Jiu, "Wait a while before leaving."
The male customer was confused, "Wait for what?"
Ru Jiu: "Wait until it's safe."
The male customer: "..."
He stretched his head and looked outside. The wide old street was no longer as dark as before. The road was repaired, street lights were installed, and there was a parking lot. Everyone realized that the planning of Xicheng Old Street had changed and it might not be demolished again.
When the road construction in the old street just started, some residents were making a fuss and calling the police. They were all waiting for the demolition and relocation payment. Seeing that the wind was blowing in the wrong direction, how could they accept it?
Some people heard the rumors two years ago and bought houses here at high prices waiting for demolition. As a result, now it is good, they don’t want to demolish them, but want to rebuild and rectify them. Who is willing to rebuild and rectify them for them? Of course, they will make a fuss, and the result of making a fuss is that they are all invited to have tea.
Some people are impatient to wait and no longer hold on to their houses for demolition. They start selling them. In just one week, many houses in the old street have changed hands.
The male customer was silent for a moment, "Is it dangerous to blow in the cold wind outside?"
Lu Jiu, who was originally staring at Si Xu, glanced at the male customer after hearing the words.
The male customer laughed, "Just kidding, I really have something urgent to do, I need to go back to the company."
As he said this, the male customer had already walked out the door and walked towards the parking lot in the cold wind.
Lu Jiu did not stop him, thinking that this man's luck should not be so bad, he just happened to meet...
"Ahhhhhhhhh!!!!"
The male customer did not meet him, but someone else met him first. The male customer was frightened to death by the miserable scream.
The scream came from the parking lot, and Si Xu had already rushed out, "Stay in the store, don't come out!"
Lu Jiu heard the sirens getting closer and closer, it should be the enhanced people chasing here.
The customers in the store were attracted by the movement outside, and gathered at the door to look out.
Lu Jiu stood in front of the door and reminded them, "Don't come out yet."
"What happened? Are they catching criminals?"
"I don't know. There's nothing outside."
"Come on, go and take a look. We haven't seen a arrest scene in our life."
Some people were trying to get out, and the person in front almost bumped into Lu Jiu. Lu Jiu said coldly, "You'd better put away your curiosity and hide in the store and don't come out."
"Why are you hiding? There are so many of us here. If the criminals come, they will definitely be criminals..."
Before the man finished speaking, the male customer who was originally standing on the road suddenly shouted, turned around and ran towards the store.
"Watch out for the car!"
"Screech!!!!"
"Bang!"
With a sharp brake sound, a taxi crashed into a street lamp in order to avoid a male customer who suddenly rushed onto the road.
The male customer was scratched and fell to the ground. He got up and continued to run to the store screaming "Ahhh".
While everyone was stunned, a black shadow suddenly rushed out from the darkness and was suddenly exposed under the street light. Everyone was shocked by this ugly thing. The thing was pitch black, and sticky liquid was dripping from its body. It smelled terrible. There was a row of sharp and long things like bone spurs on its back. It crawled very fast along the ground. The swaying appearance actually looked a bit like a crocodile, but this shape was not a crocodile at all! !!!
...
All customers: “…”
“Ahhhhhh——!!!!!!”
Lu Jiu’s eyelids jumped, “Stop screaming!”
It was too late. There were a bunch of people at the Magic Fish Shop, and some of them were particularly loud, which successfully attracted the monster that was fighting with the taxi’s taillights.
The monster threw away the taxi that it couldn’t bite, turned around and rushed towards the Magic Fish Shop…
Lu Jiu watched helplessly, the taxi door opened behind the monster, the driver staggered out of the car, and closed the door with a "bang".
Customers: “…”
Lu Jiu: “…”
The monster heard the sound, turned its head, opened its mouth wide, and bit the driver who had his back to it!
Lu Jiu's heart almost stopped beating. Just when its sharp fangs were about to bite the driver's waist, the monster stopped...
No, it didn't stop. It was still desperately moving forward. Its sharp claws left deep marks on the ground. It seemed that something invisible had caught the monster and was pulling it back desperately.
Lu Jiu looked back suddenly. It was Si Xu!
The monster was more than one meter tall and more than two meters long. It must be very strong. It would be too difficult for Si Xu to compete with it in strength. As long as Si Xu relaxed a little, the monster would definitely bite the driver's waist in one bite!
"Hey!" Lu Jiu shouted to attract the attention of the monster.
Sure enough, the monster turned its head to look at Lu Jiu on the other side of the road. The driver was also attracted by the sound.
Rujiu felt that something was going to happen. The driver looked in Rujiu's direction and saw an enlarged monster's head... Driver :
"..." Driver
: "Ah ... Lu Jiu: “Scream!” Customers : “ Ah ... Lu Jiu: “…” The monster swung its tail hard at the taxi, and slid 90 degrees, knocking the female passenger down. The monster suddenly turned around, abandoned the driver, didn’t look at the female passenger, and rushed straight to Lu Jiu! Lu Jiu clenched his fists hard, trying to resist the urge to take out the harpoon. He couldn’t expose too much. He turned sideways and wanted to hide under the car. The monster was controlled by Si Xu’s ability again. The target was too heavy. Si Xu tried to throw it out several times but failed. This time the monster didn’t wrestle with Si Xu. The moment it was controlled, it turned around again and rushed towards Si Xu! Lu Jiu: “!!!!!!!!!” Si Xu reacted quickly, changing from suction to repulsion. The repulsive force pushed the monster to prevent it from getting close to him. The monster was already irritated, and its sharp claws kicked the ground frantically, pushing Si Xu to slide backwards continuously. “Fuck you!” Lu Jiu clenched his right hand, and a harpoon appeared in his hand. If I don’t stab you to death, do you think your father is dead? ! Lu Jiu rushed over and stabbed the monster’s neck with the harpoon. The monster’s thick tail whipped Lu Jiu’s back... “Be careful!” Lu Jiu pressed the harpoon hard, and the person swung up, avoiding the tail, and landed on the back of the monster. When he stepped on it, Lu Jiu was numb. It was smelly and sticky, more disgusting than rolling in a cesspool. Lu Jiu: “…” Lu Jiu bent down and grabbed the harpoon. The harpoon inserted in the monster’s neck disappeared. When it reappeared, it was held in Lu Jiu’s hand again. Lu Jiu stabbed the harpoon hard into the back of the monster’s head. The bone was a bit hard, and the harpoon was only half inserted, and failed to kill the monster as expected. The monster was no longer in the mood to fight Si Xu, so it turned around to deal with Lu Jiu. After a few swings, Lu Jiu fell off its back. The moment it fell, Lu Jiu put away the harpoon, and the monster opened its mouth to bite... "Lu Jiu!" Si Xu had consumed too much energy, and used the remaining energy to block the monster's big mouth. The harpoon reappeared in Lu Jiu's hand, and it stabbed from bottom to top into the monster's soft jaw - the harpoon was halfway in! Lu Jiu put away the harpoon and rolled to the side flexibly. The monster was severely hit and fell to the ground with a bang, exactly where Lu Jiu had just been lying. If it had rolled slower, wouldn't it have been hit directly?
Lu Jiu got up from the ground with lingering fear. His clothes were so dirty that he couldn't bear to look at them, and they were so smelly that he couldn't bear to smell them.
