Jian Luo was stunned.
Lu Shifeng looked at him deeply: "Where's the medicine?"
"Um... medicine?" Jian Luo held the empty bowl in his hand, feeling a little sad. "Well, I just finished the medicine."
Lu Shifeng raised his eyebrows: "Have you finished drinking?"
The man repeated it meaningfully, prolonging his tone and even stretching out the ending tone, making people's hearts tremble.
Jian Luo gritted his teeth and said, "Well, I've finished drinking it."
Lu Shifeng raised the corner of his mouth: "Did you drink it in the bathroom?"
“…”
Jian Luo nodded randomly: "Yeah."
Lu Shifeng leaned against the door and said, "I didn't know you had the habit of taking medicine in the bathroom?"
No, I don't.
Jian Luo wanted to strongly object, but in the end he had to bite the bullet and said, "Yes."
There was silence all around.
After a while.
Lu Shifeng said, "You must be feeling uncomfortable in your stomach right now. This medicine has such a side effect."
Fortunately I didn’t drink.
Jian Luo responded randomly: "Yes, it is quite uncomfortable."
The room fell silent again.
Lu Shifeng looked at Jian Luo with his dark eyes, which seemed to be able to see through people's hearts. The man sneered: "I'm kidding."
Jian Luo raised his face, shocked: "Huh?"
"It won't cause stomachache after drinking it." Lu Shifeng said lazily, "You have a stomachache? Do you want me to find someone to check it out for you?"
Jian Luo's heart sank.
He raised his eyes cautiously and met Lu Shifeng's half-smile eyes, which made him shudder. It seemed that he was discovered.
Thinking that she might have to drink it later, Jian Shi couldn't hold it in any longer: "It's mainly because this nutrient solution is so hard to drink!"
Lu Shifeng raised his eyebrows.
"I'm not lying to you." Jian Luo sat on the sofa with a bitter face: "I feel like if I drink it, it would be like swallowing poison."
“…”
Lu Shifeng raised his eyebrows: "Didn't you say you had finished drinking it?"
Jian Luo gave up: "Take a sip."
Lu Shifeng sneered.
Jian Luo looked like he had given up on the sofa, and he was almost a complete wretch. It was really not his fault, as it was mainly because Lu Shifeng had casually brought out these strange soups and medicines, which was really unacceptable.
Lu Shifeng took two steps forward and walked over.
Jian Luo sat up, a little nervous, "What, what happened?"
"These are for your health," Lu Shifeng said solemnly, "If your body doesn't get enough nutrition, you'll be the one who suffers in the end."
“…”
I understand the logic.
Jian Luo unconsciously stroked his lower abdomen and sighed: "I understand, I will think about it carefully."
Lu Shifeng murmured "hmm".
Jian Luo buried his head in the sofa and glanced at him sideways: "Don't you Dark Star people feel bitter?"
Lu Shifeng sat lazily: "We are not very sensitive to bitterness."
“…”
I see.
Jian Luo sighed: "Thinking about it this way, humans are really much more miserable."
Lu Shifeng had never seen him lower his head so low, so he said, "Good fortune and misfortune go hand in hand. You also have things that the Dark Star people can't envy."
Jian Luo instantly perked up, eagerly waiting: "For example?"
Lu Shifeng: "Eating this aspect."
“…”
Thank you.
The next day.
Today is Jian Luo's day off. Early in the morning, he heard that his younger brother had returned home, so he went to wash up and prepare to go home to visit.
The vampire servants were guarding outside together.
Jian Luo hesitated and asked, "Do you... have anything else to do?"
"Greetings, Your Highness." The attendants bowed and saluted. "Today is your day off. We are here to serve you in your vampire etiquette class."
???
Jian Luo was confused now: "Why should I take the vampire etiquette class?"
"From your behavior at the banquet yesterday, I can tell you don't know much about etiquette," the maid-dressed attendant said obediently. "The dragon cub will definitely be born a noble, so this is also a form of prenatal education."
?
A question mark slowly appeared above Jian Luo's head.
He sat on the bed and looked at the group of people with amusement: "Do you mean that I am uneducated?"
The maid quickly said, "I dare not insult Your Highness in this way. It's just that it's not a bad thing for Your Highness to learn the etiquette of the nobility. The Marshal and His Majesty are already processing your household registration. Because you are so meritorious for carrying a child, they have decided to process your household registration directly as a noble. So, only after you have learned the etiquette of the nobility can you truly integrate into the nobility."
“…”
Jian Luo didn't feel happy at all.
For him, the household registration is just a qualification certificate for buying a house, not a necessary condition for him to do so.
Thinking of this, Jian Luo smiled: "No need, I am not interested in the etiquette of your nobles, nor am I interested in becoming a noble. If you really think that I have insulted the face of the young prince of the Dragon Clan, why not change your life?"
After these words were spoken, the room fell silent.
The maid's expression changed again and again, and suddenly she knelt down with a plop: "Your Highness, please forgive me. Please don't be angry. I am stupid and have made you angry!"
Jian Luo was a little angry at first, but he had never been knelt on by anyone in his life, so after this, he felt a little embarrassed: "Get up."
The maid was still hesitant.
"I don't mean to blame you." Jian Luo said bluntly: "If I need to, I will learn the etiquette of the nobility myself. I don't need you to remind me."
He just didn't want to be notified in this way.
But this doesn't mean that he won't look for opportunities to learn in the future.
The maids nodded obediently: "Understood."
Jian Luo waved his hand: "You guys go."
The maids saluted and then retreated. After this show of power, it was obvious that almost no one dared to challenge Jian Luo anymore.
Jian Luo slumped down on the bed and sighed heavily.
"Ding Dong."
There is a message prompt sound on the information terminal.
Jian Luo sat up a little straighter, clicked on the message, and saw that it was from Su Liang: "Luoluo, are you going home today?"
Jian Luo quickly replied: "I'm back."
Su Liang responded: "No rush, your brother just came home, I said you went to work."
"OK."
After replying to the message, Jian Luo closed the information terminal and reopened the live broadcast page. He basically only checked the backend revenue of the live broadcast network once a month.
178,000 star coins, of which nearly 100,000 came from live broadcast rewards, and the other 80,000 came from purchases and tastings.
After transferring the money to the card, Jian Luo began to ponder.
Saving this money will not actually play the role it should, but it would be great if you can put this money to good use and maximize your benefits.
While thinking, Jian Luo walked out.
The driver was already waiting: "Mr. Jian, where are you going?"
"Hmm?" Jian Luo reported the address of Anleyuan: "Excuse me, Master, please take me to Anleyuan."
The driver responded, "Okay."
Because the journey was not far, Jian had been thinking about how to invest while he was in the car. He was also thinking about the direction of investment from many aspects.
Invest in Yuese?
Buy something that appreciates in value?
Or open your own shop?
In fact, if I have to be honest, it is true that his cooking skills are very good, and it would be very feasible for him to open his own store.
Just as I was thinking about it, the driver in front of me said, "Sir, the park is right ahead."
Jian Luo responded: "Okay, thank you, just leave me in front, no need to drive into the village."
The driver responded, "Okay."
The car stopped steadily by the roadside. The door opened automatically and Jian Luo got out.
Outside Anleyuan, rows of willow trees are in full bloom, now flourishing and swaying in the wind.
"Just call me if you need a ride." The driver had always been serving Jian Luo: "I'll be waiting for you right here."
Jian Luo responded: "Okay, thank you."
Walking a few steps inside, you can see the small pharmacy run by an old doctor at the entrance of the village. There is a rickety sign hanging on it, which makes people feel a little worried.
For no apparent reason, Jane stopped at the door of the clinic.
The weather was hot and humid at the moment. There was a rocking chair in the yard, and the old doctor was sitting on it leisurely, enjoying the cool air.
Jian Luo knocked on the door: "Hello, am I coming in?"
The old doctor was still sleeping with his eyes slightly closed, but now he was fully awake. He opened one eye and looked at Jian Luo: "Global Hope?"
Jian Luo didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Thank you for remembering."
"Come, come, come." The old doctor stretched out his hand tremblingly: "I'll give you a massage."
Jian Luo took a small stool and sat down next to him: "Okay."
The old doctor narrowed his eyes, muttered incoherently, and felt the patient's pulse for a while, then stroked his beard: "Your pulse is not very good."
Jian Luoping calmed down: "I can feel it myself."
"You need to take good care of yourself." The old doctor said slowly, "The Dark Star people don't know anything about keeping a baby safe. Even if they knew you were not well, they might still give you a bowl of nutrient solution."
“…”
It's real.
Jian Luo said softly, "I really can't drink that nutrient solution."
The old doctor sneered: "Don't talk about you. Normal humans can't get used to drinking nutrient solution. Do you know why everyone is still drinking it?"
Jian Luo was curious: "Why?"
"Vegetables are expensive," the old doctor said slowly. "After they're grown, they're all sent to the front lines. How can ordinary people afford them?"
“…”
Jian Luo was a little confused: "Since vegetables are so expensive, why not grow them in bulk?"
The old doctor chuckled, "That's the problem. Scarcity makes things valuable. If we grow them in large quantities, then humans will no longer be useful. Why would we need them anymore?"
Jian Luo thought about it and gradually understood the reason behind it.
It is probably a vicious circle. The germination rate of seeds is decreasing, and there are only a few categories at present, which naturally cannot guarantee human creativity.
If you eat the same kind of food for months and years, you will definitely get tired of it. In order to prevent food from being wasted, you can only control the amount.
However, controlling the number will also have a side effect - the reduction in the number means that sometimes even our own people cannot eat it.
Jian Luo sighed.
The old doctor said: "Humanity needs innovation, otherwise, it will eventually be replaced."
These are all very cruel facts, but Jian Luo has some ideas of his own: "Yes, humans must find a way that suits themselves, conforms to the universe, and can truly survive."
The old doctor finally opened his eyes: "So what do you think?"
?
Jian Luo sat obediently on the chair, looking at the soil on the ground: "Not yet. I came here to see if I could find some tonic recipes that I can drink besides nutrient solution, but I don't know if there are any such recipes here."
The old Chinese doctor smiled slowly. "Although Dark Star is different from Earth, its forests contain many Chinese herbal medicines that are roughly the same as those on Earth. Wait a minute, I'll give you a prescription in a couple of days."
Jian Luo: "Okay, thank you."
After discussing this matter, he was about to leave, but after taking a few steps he suddenly stopped, a slightly scary idea in his mind.
I've heard before that Chinese herbal medicine can treat infertility. If it can treat Earthlings, is it possible that it can also treat Dark Aliens? After all, humans evolved from apes, and aren't Dark Aliens also half-orcs? Since we're all animals, there should be some common ground!
Thinking of this, Jian Luo seemed to have opened up his Ren and Du meridians.
"Well!" Jian Luo turned around suddenly, wanting to talk more with the old doctor to prove his point: "Do you think Chinese herbal medicine is effective for the Dark Star people?"
The old doctor sat in the rocking chair and drank his tea slowly: "It's hard to say."
Jian Luo's heart sank gradually.
"But..." The old doctor's tone stretched out: "I haven't treated them, so it's hard to say."
There is still hope!
Jian Luo's eyes suddenly lit up, and she was very happy!
After confirming this matter, he felt as if he had solved a serious problem, and walked from here to home almost as fast as flying.
As soon as I opened the door to the yard, I could smell the delicious food inside.
"elder brother!"
Jian Luo paused and saw his younger brother rushing towards him. Children really grow up very fast. It felt like he had grown so tall in just a short time.
Jian Sheng stood in front of Jian Luo excitedly: "Brother, why did you leave work early?"
"Hmm?" Jian Luo made up a random excuse: "Because I worked too much before, my company asked me to leave work early now."
Jian Sheng nodded: "So that's how it is."
The two of them walked into the house hand in hand, and chatted a lot along the way. Of course, Jian Luo was mainly listening to Jian Sheng talking about things in school. The most interesting thing was his admiration for Lu Shifeng.
"The Marshal gave us martial arts movement guidance."
"He's so amazing."
"All those monsters combined are no match for him."
"I wish I could be as good as him one day!"
Jian Luo didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "He is the marshal of the empire, he must have some ability."
The two of them walked into the house and sat down at the table. The younger brother had basically become a fanboy of Lu Shifeng: "I heard that when the Marshal was just born as a little dragon, he was not the Dragon King, but a relatively weak little dragon. He also became stronger through his own efforts in the later period. I want to learn from him!"
Yeah?
Inexplicably, Jian Luo suddenly felt that he didn't seem to understand Lu Shifeng at all.
He also did not take the initiative to ask about Lu Shifeng's past.
but……
But is it necessary?
They were just strangers who met by chance and had some interactions with each other, so it was better for them not to get to know each other.
Su Liang came out of the kitchen and asked his younger brother, "How many days does your school have off in total?"
"Oh." The younger brother answered honestly: "It's a two-day holiday in total. I have to go back to school tomorrow. Now is a critical period for learning, and the school doesn't allow too many days off."
Jian Luo understood what was going on. It seemed like he would have to sleep at home tonight.
Su Liang glanced at Jian Luo and said, "Luoluo, if your company is busy, just go there immediately. You don't need to worry about your family."
"It's okay, I'm not busy." Jian Luo comforted Su Liang: "I'll just tell the boss, he's been taking good care of me."
“…”
It would be better if I could skip classes.
After spending the entire afternoon leisurely strolling around the house, feeling incredibly comfortable, Jian Luo suddenly received a message from Jiang Jiang: "Luoluo, are you there?"
Jian Luo replied: "Yes."
"That's right. I saw you've withdrawn your profits, and I have some ideas that I'd like to discuss with you." Jiang Jiang made the suggestion after much deliberation: "But the final decision on this matter rests with you."
Jian Luo couldn't help but take it seriously: "What's the matter? Just tell me."
Jiang Jiang coughed lightly. "Is that so? I think your potato chips and shrimp crackers, etc., can actually be mass-produced. Judging from the current market and the response to your livestream, there's a huge demand for these snacks. Right now, supply still outstrips demand. What do you think about making them into physical bulk products for public sale?"
Jian Luo thought about it and decided that this was feasible.
It just so happened that he was also worried about how to spend the little money he had.
"That's feasible." Jian Luo said honestly, "Well, let's make an appointment to meet tomorrow and discuss this matter properly."
Jiang Jiang quickly responded: "Okay!"
After thinking for a while, Jiang Jiang said, "I'll bring my senior sister over. She does this. The three of us can chat together."
Jian Luo had no objection.
After the discussion, it was just a matter of saying hello to Lu Shifeng. He timidly opened the chat window and sent a message to Lu Shifeng: "Are you there?"
I thought I would have to wait for a while, but the reply came very quickly: "What?"
Jian Luo was very honest: "I'm sleeping at home tonight, my brother is back."
"Yeah." Lu Shifeng responded: "Take care of yourself. Call me if you have any problems."
Jian Luo responded: "Okay."
He thought that was the end, but Lu Shifeng added, "I'll pick you up for dinner tomorrow."
Have a meal?
That won’t do. He has an appointment.
Thinking of this, Jian Luo quickly replied: "No need, my brother will be at home tomorrow, I can just eat at home."
The Marshal frowned after being rejected again, but when he thought about Jian Luo's relationship with his family, he finally agreed: "Okay."
After chatting, Jian Luo rolled over on the bed happily.
That’s great! If we can negotiate the mass production tomorrow, how much money will we make? Maybe we can even establish another Kobick company!
