Spirit Stone Hunter
Chapter 14 Paid Assistants
There are many things in this world that are different from the world Ma Xiaotian used to live in.But in fact there are more things that are similar.
There are some differences in living habits due to changes in daily necessities, and the Hua Kingdom he lives in is not fundamentally different from the Hua Kingdom in his previous life in terms of cultural customs.It's just that there are no fairy tales, and some meaningful festivals still exist.It's just that there are many differences in names and origins.The most intuitive thing is the ingredients.In fact, many ingredients are similar, but most of the ingredients that are the same as in the previous life are considered luxury here.For example, the carrot that Ma Xiaotian is cutting costs more than 100 per catty.Because there are no cultivated varieties yet, they are all wild, so Ma Xiaotian eats them very rarely.If it wasn't for celebrating his discharge from the hospital today, and because he also wanted to have fun with Ying Feng's reunion with his senior brother, he wouldn't have spent so much money out of his own pocket.
But now thinking of the 60 that Zhan Jiu said, he couldn't even mention how beautiful it was.Even if his reason told him that the money was too much and he couldn't ask others for it.But he still had a wonderful "I've got a lot of money" mentality.Lian Yi quickly ignored the ambiguous atmosphere created by Zhan Jiu just now.
"Um... Teacher Huo said that Xiaofeng would live with him. The room over there can be yours. If the bed is not big enough, you can change it." After chopping the carrots, Ma Xiaotian put the big frying pan on the stove and poured it on Almost colorless and odorless fruit oil.
The speed of Zhan Jiu's meat cutting was also very fast, and he quickly cut the beef cubes according to the size Ma Xiaotian requested. "Go shopping with me tomorrow. I don't understand these things."
Ma Xiaotian said "Oh", and then added: "Actually, you really don't need to give me so much money. You can take back the three stones. Even if we are friends, we can't charge you so much. I feel uneasy if you do this .”
Zhan Jiu insisted: "I don't want to repeat it again. I won't take back what I gave you. Don't talk anymore, come out with me now, and transfer the money immediately!"
Immediately afterwards, Ma Xiaotian was pulled out of the kitchen by Zhan Jiu.There is no need to pay any handling fees for transferring funds using the smart brain. Ma Xiaotian felt a little dizzy when he saw that his account had an extra 60.It was a real shaking of the body.
Zhan Jiu quickly supported him: "Is it uncomfortable?"
Ma Xiaotian shook his head: "No, it's just a bit like a dream. Ninth brother, have you always spent money like water?"
Zhan Jiu understood the meaning of this adjective.After all, gold is not the most expensive unit of circulation here.Fortunately, I probably understand. "I said, this money is a windfall, you don't have to treat it as I gave it to you. Originally all four stones were worth this price. And I will not pay you rent, water, electricity and food for a long time."
Ma Xiaotian thought about it, and then nodded: "Then I'm getting a good deal too. You'll even hunt and bring back meat yourself."
Zhan Jiu really laughed.How is this kid so smart in stinging. "Okay, now that you have the money, do you feel confident?"
Ma Xiaotian immediately raised a smiling face: "Yes! I am very confident! I don't have to worry about two years of tuition anymore!"
Zhan Jiu couldn't help touching his hair: "You are a spirit person now, have you ever thought about changing your subject and becoming a high-income occupation that a spirit person should do?"
Ma Xiaotian was stunned for an instant.He really didn't think about it at all.To him, the ordinary person and the spirit person seemed to be just a change in race, but in fact he didn't think too much about how to live in the future.So when Zhan Jiu asked this question, it really took him a while to think about the result. "Should I change?"
Zhan Jiu nodded: "You have talents beyond ordinary people. Although you must go through more hard work to display your talents, you should not let down your parents' upbringing, nor should you waste your abilities. "
The serious conversation between the two was interrupted by the return of Huo Congting and Ying Feng.
Seeing that the two brought back four bottles of red wine and two bottles of white wine, Ma Xiaotian's eyes widened. "You buy so much? Do you want to drink so much?" He still knows the degree of wine here.There are both wild and cultivated grapes here.Cheap wines are basically made from cultivated grapes. In fact, the nutritional content is almost the same, and the alcohol content is not much different, but there is really a big difference in taste and texture.And different grape varieties have different tastes.Looking at the packaging, Ma Xiaotian knew that the four bottles of red wine must be expensive.As for baijiu, he didn't know much, because it was all brewed from planted grains, and the price was differentiated according to the year of cellaring, craftsmanship, and brand.He hadn't drunk it, so naturally he didn't know the price.
Huo Congting replied: "It just so happens that these four bottles are in one box, so I bought them back. How can I drink so much in a while. Save them for later drinking. Doesn't Xiaotian welcome us as guests in the future?"
Ma Xiaotian immediately shook his head: "How is that possible! I welcome you very much! It's best if you come over every day, I'm reluctant to let Xiaofeng move!"
Ying Feng smiled: "I moved to my brother's place, it's the teacher's dormitory of the school, we can still meet every day. When I'm not doing tasks, we can have lunch together at noon."
"That's right! Why didn't I think of this!" Ma Xiaotian remembered at this moment that Huo Congting actually lives in the teacher's dormitory in the school's community, which is really close!
Seeing the two children chatting happily, Huo Congting took the wine and went to the kitchen together.He gave Zhan Jiu a wink, and then the two entered Ying Feng's room.
Zhan Jiu looked at Huo Congting, and when he spoke, Huo Congting felt that he really couldn't raise any momentum in front of Zhan Jiu.Although he can be sure, the level between each other should be almost the same. "I can see that you care about Ma Xiaotian very much."
Master Jiu didn't evade the question, and nodded directly. "Then?"
Huo Congting said: "I know that Ma Xiaotian's source of income now mainly depends on the minimum living allowance from the social security agency. I have seen photos of the handmade peaks he made. They look pretty good, but they are really useless. If you can't sell them for a few dollars, it's not good." Sell. He still has two years to officially become an adult and can work, so I hope that in these two years, you can help him. Not with money, but with actions."
Zhan Jiu raised his eyebrows. "what do you mean?"
"What I mean is that I am not only hired by the school to be a lecturer for the basic course of shape armor engineering, but also one of the directors of the matching research project between spirit stones and shape armor engineering. I need my own spirit stone hunter and assistant. So I hope You, Xiaofeng and Xiaotian can all be recruited. In this way, Xiaotian can have you and Xiaofeng as protection, Xiaofeng can also learn from you, and Xiaotian can also have an assistant subsidy from me personally. Being an assistant in the school has a lot of income. It’s part-time job.”
Zhan Jiu was somewhat interested in this proposal: "That is to say, you want the three of us to form a spirit stone hunting team?"
Huo Congting nodded: "To be precise, there can't be only the three of you, I have to count as one. Of course there must be other people. After all, although Xiaotian is a spirit person, he has just transformed and needs professional learning to distinguish spirit stones. But He can also be directly involved in the process of action, which is the best learning opportunity. I will also ask the school to recommend at least two Quebecs and two spirits. It depends on whether you agree. I know you must not want to be bound people."
Zhan Jiu thought for a moment. "Yes. But I won't sign any contract. My duty is to protect Xiaotian and teach Yingfeng how to fight."
Huo Congting was very grateful: "Thank you! I know you are a trustworthy person! Xiaofeng is lucky to have friends like you and Xiaotian!"
When two adults discuss things.The other two were in the kitchen smelling meat.
Ma Xiaotian put the commonly used spices into the oil pan and stir-fried them for aroma, then put the chopped onions into the pan and stir-fried them for aroma.This kind of onion is basically a combination of onion and garlic. It tastes like onion, but it looks like a huge garlic clove.After being cut open, it will taste sweet when fried and softened. If the quality is good, the sweetness will increase.The effects of relieving greasy, fishy and detoxifying are all top-notch, and it is basically a must-have condiment or vegetable for the family.After the onions are placed, it's time for the beef cubes.
Because of the four people, the appetite of the three Quebecs is amazing. Even if there are several dishes, the portion of the main course cannot be less.So Ma Xiaotian couldn't stir fry at all, so he had to let Ying Feng wield the spatula.Fortunately, Ying Feng also learned a lot from Ma Xiaotian, and he can cook basic meals.The posture when frying the meat is also very good.
Ma Xiaotian saw that the meat was almost done, and began to put carrots in it. "Continue reading for a while. Hey Xiaofeng, are you and Mr. Huo really just brothers?" As he worked, Ma Xiaotian's gossiping heart arose.He deliberately lowered his voice and looked mysterious.
His expression made Ying Feng slightly embarrassed: "What are you thinking?"
Ma Xiaotian smiled mischievously: "Oh~! I'm just asking, are you and Mr. Huo very good?"
The corner of Ying Feng's mouth twitched: "Senior brother took care of me when I was very young, and took care of me until I grew up. Senior brother is my dearest person, even master can't compare."
"I know you are the closest people. But I think..." Ma Xiaotian began to think about the most appropriate adjective.
Ying Feng didn't give him that chance: "Don't guess. I like senior brother very much. And I only like him." In fact, he had already realized this feeling when he was 15 years old.For a long time at that time, he lived in panic.Although same-sex marriages are normal in this world, even if there are two Quebecs, as long as one of them is strong, the other can give birth to offspring.But this kind of thing is not allowed between brothers.Although they were not brothers, the brotherhood that had existed since childhood made him very depressed.
He felt that he had been careful all along, but Huo Congting still found out.Huo Congting solved all Ying Feng's worries and troubles with one kiss.Although neither of them said anything about the change in their relationship.But they all knew in their hearts that this was the confirmed person.Even their master acquiesced in their relationship.It's just that he told Huo Congting not to overstep before Ying Feng's body is fully developed.After all, Ying Feng is no ordinary Quebec.But before Ying Feng's body was completely stable, the boy sneaked away by himself.
Rather than saying that Huo Congting spent the past three years looking for his junior brother who ran away from home, he was looking for his own wife.Now that he has been found, of course he cannot be allowed to escape.And Ying Feng knew in his heart that now that he was a complete adult, when he was with his senior brother, there were some things that he had to face.
Looking at Ying Feng, he seemed to be lost in thought.Ma Xiaotian waved his hand in front of his eyes. "Hey. What are you thinking? Didn't you meet again? What's the matter with this expression? Teacher Huo likes your appearance too?!"
Ying Feng came back from the memory, glanced at Ma Xiaotian who was slightly worried, and smiled: "I know. Senior brother and I are very good. I just remembered the past."
Ma Xiaotian let out a long breath: "Scared me. I thought you were unrequited love. I just said it's not like it. Hehe. Xiaofeng, if I learn shape armor engineering from Mr. Huo, he will be my teacher. , do I want to call you Mistress?"
The corners of Ying Feng's mouth twitched twice, he couldn't control it several times, and raised his hand to pat Ma Xiaotian on the back.Of course he had calculated the strength, Ma Xiaoer would only feel a little pain, but not too much pain. "Shut up!"
Ma Xiaotian laughed loudly: "Don't be shy! Of course you have to say something so happy, everyone hahaha! Hey, don't reach out again! Watch out for the spatula! I'm pouring wine into it now, you have to stir it well !"
There are some differences in living habits due to changes in daily necessities, and the Hua Kingdom he lives in is not fundamentally different from the Hua Kingdom in his previous life in terms of cultural customs.It's just that there are no fairy tales, and some meaningful festivals still exist.It's just that there are many differences in names and origins.The most intuitive thing is the ingredients.In fact, many ingredients are similar, but most of the ingredients that are the same as in the previous life are considered luxury here.For example, the carrot that Ma Xiaotian is cutting costs more than 100 per catty.Because there are no cultivated varieties yet, they are all wild, so Ma Xiaotian eats them very rarely.If it wasn't for celebrating his discharge from the hospital today, and because he also wanted to have fun with Ying Feng's reunion with his senior brother, he wouldn't have spent so much money out of his own pocket.
