Chapter 257 Dawn Will Always Come
[It is currently 6 PM. Dinner reservations have closed. Please prepare and ship the food to your customers as soon as possible.]
"Got it, right away."
The dark hand continued to surge, constantly breaking the ice, only to be re-frozen as it approached.
Because of the cold weather, the black hand could not get close to him.
But what if the temperature rises and the black water stops freezing?
Wouldn't that mean fighting these underhanded tactics every day?
"Everyone, don't be angry. I was in a bad mood and wanted to vent my anger by swearing. Here's what I'll do: I'll compensate you with some gold coins."
"I heard from the gold coin merchant that although you are not human, you also spend gold coins sometimes. I wonder how much your salary is? Can I offer 1 gold coins?"
The churning black hands stopped and fell down together, leaving only one thick black hand on the surface of the water with three fingers extended.
"Thirty thousand gold coins?" Lu Youyou asked.
boom!
The ice surface was smashed again, and the evil hand emerged, unleashing a chaotic rampage.
"Don't be angry, don't be angry! You're not saying anything, how am I supposed to know how much it is? Three hundred thousand gold coins?"
Lu Youyou hit the nail on the head this time, and the villains all gave her a thumbs up.
Lu Youyou didn't reply immediately, not because she was unwilling to spend the money, but because she felt that spending so many gold coins wouldn't be enough to completely resolve the issue.
Although this monster is the lowest level, it has the advantage of being numerous. You can find them wherever you go by the roadside, which is extremely troublesome.
If spending money doesn't solve the problem, it's better not to spend money at all.
"I can pay 30 gold coins, but you must guarantee that this matter will be settled once and for all, and that you will not cause me any trouble."
The black hands still maintained the thumb shape.
Lu Youyou couldn't tell for a moment whether they were frozen stiff or expressing agreement.
"If you agree, give me a thumbs-up."
The villains all flashed peace signs.
"Just giving me a guarantee isn't enough. Also, who should I transfer the 300,000 gold coins to? Or should I just pour them into the black water? But I suspect they'll freeze. Are you going to pry them off one by one?"
The slender black hands all went down, leaving only the thick, muscular black hand behind.
With a snap of its fingers, paper and pen appeared out of thin air.
The culprit immediately wrote a guarantee, threw it onto the shore, and then disappeared back into the water.
This leaves behind a more uneven ice surface.
Lu Youyou picked up the paper. The front had the guarantee written on it, and the back had her contact information.
Lu Youyou searched for her friends using the number he gave her.
I found an NPC with the nickname "Blackwater Boss". I clicked to add him as a friend, and he quickly accepted.
[Blackwater Boss: 30 gold coins, not a single one less.]
Lu Youyou turned around decisively. The "typing" message after Blackwater Boss's nickname appeared intermittently, and in the end, only two words were sent.
[Blackwater Boss: Thank you.]
[Lu Youyou: You promised you wouldn't cause me any more trouble, and you signed the guarantee. The panel assistant can vouch for it.]
[Blackwater Boss: I won't cause you any trouble. It's just that my level is low, so I don't show any favorability towards survivors. But I, Blackwater Boss, am a man of my word, and I wouldn't stoop to lying to you.]
Lu Youyou didn't reply again. She got in the car to look at today's recipe, then went to the [Food Factory] to cook and send the food.
After doing all this, she yawned, ate a piece of bread for dinner, washed up, and went to bed.
the next day.
Lu Youyou got up before seven o'clock.
She wasn't sure if it was just her imagination, but she felt that the sky wasn't as dark as it used to be.
If it used to be as black as ink, now it's like it's been diluted with water.
It's still black, but not as dark.
She opened the public chat to see if anyone shared her thoughts.
She crossed out the invalid information that had no reference value, but she actually found the same statement.
[Zhenzhen is a treasure: Why does it feel like it's not so dark anymore? Is there something wrong with my eyes' adjustment function, or is a new environment coming soon?]
[Butterfly Koi: I also feel that the sky isn't as dark as before, but when I asked my teammates, they all said there was no change, suggesting that there's something wrong with my eyes.]
[Wang Fugui is the richest: Is it possible that the adults are going to categorize people? Although I don't know how they'll be categorized, it doesn't seem impossible that they'll be divided into two groups to survive in different environments?]
【…】
There were all sorts of guesses, and the more Lu Youyou read, the more confused she became.
She asked a question in the group chat, and all the members said that the color of the night sky had changed.
Lu Youyou was relieved. Whether they split into two groups to survive or a new environment was coming, the entire gang would not be scattered.
Gululu.
I didn't eat much last night, so I'm hungry this morning.
She opened the advanced plant growing box on her phone, marked out a small area, and clicked the button to select "harvest".
So she found a handful of pea shoots in her backpack compartment.
It's better to eat something light in the morning, so Lu Youyou prepared to stir-fry pea shoots.
On her way to the folding kitchen, she asked the food factory to make a steamed bun.
When she got to the kitchen, she rinsed the pea shoots in half a basin of warm water and then peeled a clove of garlic.
She didn't smash it because she only wanted to add flavor, not eat it.
Once the preparations are complete, pour in the oil and start the fire.
Once the oil is hot, add the garlic clove and sauté until fragrant. Then remove the garlic and add the pea shoots.
Then, she quickly added salt and oyster sauce, and tossed the food in the wok.
Pea shoots are crisp and tender and cook quickly. Once they are no longer as angular as when they are raw, they are ready to be taken out of the pot.
After cooking, she first used the [Food Factory] to scan the stir-fried pea shoots.
Congratulations on entering your recipe - Stir-fried Pea Shoots.
That's great, I won't have to cook it myself anymore if I want to eat it.
Although this dish is not difficult to make, Lu Youyou is lazy whenever possible.
She didn't have a choice when washing pots before, but now that she can, she'll naturally choose the easier one.
After dinner, she cleaned the kitchen as usual, then sat on the sofa in the living room and looked at the Monster Merchant's shop.
Nothing else was particularly interesting; only the mechanical spider at the bottom caught Lu Youyou's attention.
[Mechanical Spider: 300 gold coins each after discount, limited to 100 per purchase. Can shrink any item and bring it into a crowd, and can be remotely controlled by the owner.]
Lu Youyou has a lot of gold coins now, and without blinking an eye, she spent 30000 gold coins to buy 100 mechanical spiders.
After closing the monster merchant's shop, Lu Youyou began her daily tasks.
First, insult the Undying God of War to accumulate aversion points, and successfully reduce it to -25%.
She stopped when she realized that Yu Qian had given her a message that she could no longer swipe.
Then he went to find the gossipy girl and exchanged stories.
[Gossip Girl: I love listening to your gossip, so in return, I'll tell you something.]
[Gossip Girl: Dawn will always come, but with it comes a new round of games. You'd better be prepared!]
