Plane Store: I rely on five-star reviews to become rich and live forever

Chapter 416: I'm cooking at the Magic Castle 34

The snowstorm seriously affected Malatang's business.

Originally, he could collect two to three hundred fragments every day. It was expected that in another ten days and a half, Gu Xingyan's upgrade task in this plane would be successfully completed, but he had to temporarily close his business due to bad weather.

On the streets where the cold wind was raging, only patrol soldiers were marching silently in formation. They also helped clear the thick snow at everyone's door, which surprised the people who were hiding in their houses to avoid the cold.

Has Patrol really changed his gender? !

A group of soldiers passed by a Malatang store and saw a bright light upstairs. A soldier immediately left the group and knocked on the door to call someone.

April opened the curtains vigilantly, and saw that it was the new soldier who had done the shopping for the commander before. His expression softened a lot, "What can I do?"

The soldier said with a shy face: "I want to buy three portions of Mala Tang for my parents, is that okay?"

"Sorry, we are closed."

"Excuse me, we really need it!"

"There is no need..."

April's tone was very embarrassing. She could see the clean road outside the door. The soldiers outside had a lot of flying snow on their bodies, and their noses were red from the cold, just for a few spicy hotpots...

Are you hungry? cold?

"How about I pack some staff meals for you?"

The soldier hesitated and asked, "Did your witch do it?"

April immediately understood the other party's hidden meaning and whispered: "I'm going to ask the boss for instructions. Please wait a moment."

She turned and went upstairs and said to Gu Xingyan, who was sitting on the sofa watching "Invisibility from Zero to Mastery": "Boss, the soldier from before is here again and wants the food you made."

Both of us know that this "cooking" does not refer to cooking by ourselves, but to have some special effect.

The staff meals that are simply stir-fried with spiritual energy ingredients do not have this effect. Only the soup stock cooked in the hot pot restaurant's kitchen will have an effect on the magic mirror fragments.

"How much does he want?"

"Three servings."

"Then let's make soup noodles for lunch. Use our vacuum-packed spicy soup base and make three more portions for him."

"Okay." The employee in charge immediately set off to the warehouse to get the ingredients.

"By the way, April, does that person come often?"

April recalled, "He comes every day. He eats one portion in the store first, and then buys three portions to leave."

The identity of a soldier is so special that it is difficult to remember it.

"Then let's make three more servings of noodle soup every day."

"Does the boss know he will come tomorrow?"

"Well, the people behind him should be very careful to prevent the erosion of the magic mirror fragments."

When the noodle soup was ready, it was not much different from Malatang. The soldier thanked him profusely and paid double the reward before leaving with satisfaction.

Baron Tracy came over, looked at the soldier suspiciously, and without paying attention, was directly invited into the room by April.

Gu Xingyan went downstairs to meet his guests, "Your Majesty, Baron, you are here."

Tracy sat down directly on the long sofa in the dining area. After the store opened, he came there many times during closing time, and it almost became a second home.

"Master Witch, I'm here to send you a message."

"what news?"

"What just happened this morning, dozens of residential buildings in the north of the city were crushed by snow, leaving hundreds of people trapped, seriously injured, or homeless."

Several people present frowned. In this weather, without the shelter of a house, those people might not survive this winter.

"Our king previously issued a decree that 20% of the taxes collected each year should be allocated to disaster relief funds. In addition to purchasing materials, it also includes recruiting people with abilities from surrounding areas to help. This decree is still in effect today."

Gu Xingyan nodded slightly, feeling somewhat fond of the king who proposed such a decree.

In this era, many people with abilities seem to have put magic on the shelf and disdain to use it on ordinary people. Similarly, the nobles amassed wealth without restraint and were not willing to let go of it to make the common people live a better life.

When Tracy mentioned this decree, he was quite emotional. The king in his prime had always been his idol and was a rare wise king.

Somehow everyone has changed.

"The king at that time encountered a lot of resistance, so his methods were much tougher, stipulating that everyone must participate and not run away.

"You are also an ability user. Soon, someone will recruit you into the palace. At that time, you will also see more ability users or nobles, so please be careful."

"Thank you, Lord Baron, for the advance notice."

If Tracy hadn't said anything, she might have gotten bored one day and taken her employees back to the far north snowfield to close down the business and rest, thus offending the king in a daze.

In addition, it is very likely that some of those ability users carry magic mirror fragments, so she can also be mentally prepared.

However, the efficiency of the kingdom's nobles was so low that no soldiers came to the Malatang shop to ask for help until the afternoon of the next day.

The best rescue time has long been missed!

People's lives were at stake, so Gu Xingyan, who was prepared in advance, immediately set off with the soldiers. As a result, they were not going to the north of the city where the disaster occurred, but to the wealthy area in the south of the city.

More than thirty folk ability users were called into a crystal flower room. It was freezing and snowy outside, but warm as spring inside. Beautiful flowers bloomed silently, decorating the noble manor.

The strength of these ability users is not very high. Calculated in terms of cultivation system, they can only build a foundation elixir. It is estimated that the more powerful people are divided among the nobles and do not need to participate in this kind of "voluntary labor".

Gu Xingyan stood alone with his hands folded on his chest, his mood indescribable, and he did not join the chatting group of those with abilities.

Someone wanted to build a relationship and took the initiative to chat: "You are the Witch from the East, right? Is this your first time participating in such an event?"

Gu Xingyan nodded and said nothing.

But the other party thought she was nervous and said with a smile: "It's not a big deal, let's just go through the motions."

"Just going through the motions? How exactly?" Gu Xingyan thought it was ridiculous, but the other party didn't realize her true emotions.

"Later, a carriage will take us around the royal city. Then, the Duke's servant will give us a small amount of hard work money, and we can go back."

"What will happen to the victims if we go back?"

The man was stunned for a moment when he was asked. This was obviously over the top. He had never thought about this question at all.

A mage next to him answered: "What should we do? They have offended the Snow Queen and deserve to suffer. If we go to save them, wouldn't we be going against the Queen?"

Gu Xingyan cursed in his heart: Unreasonable!

These people rationalize the consequences of inaction, pursue the theory of victim guilt, and put the blame on the God of Ice and Snow.

After so many years, the Snow Queen has not come out to take revenge on the whole society. She is really broad-minded!

"What about the reward? My friend told me that you should have at least one gold coin. The more you work, the more you will get. Don't you want to make money?"

Several ability users standing close to each other looked at each other and laughed out loud.

"How old are you? That decree was pretty good ten years ago, but now it has changed! It would be great if we could have a silver coin in our hands!"

"Why do you think those nobles invited us here? Are they going to let us enjoy the scenery? Of course they want us to compromise and agree to transfer the disaster relief funds to them before they can let us go!"

Everyone laughed indifferently. The new Witch of the East might be too young to be so naive.

At this time, a servant walked into the flower room and read Gu Xingyan's name loudly: "Miss Witch of the East, my Duke has invited me!"
