Chapter Forty-Nine: Toyoshika Island

Fu Jixianli's biological clock is very stable, he wakes up at nine o'clock every morning as usual, and then continues to lie down for half an hour to brush his phone, and then wait until he has the feeling that "he really should get up" before he puts the idea of getting up into action.

On weekdays, for adults, the time and way he gets up seems a bit extravagant.

By the time Fu Jixian finished cleaning and came downstairs, it was almost ten o'clock.

Daigo Sugiyama arrived a little earlier than usual, and was moving a cardboard box from a truck parked at the door into the kitchen - Sugiyama was not only a cook, but he was even doing the work of purchasing, taking care of the replenishment of utensils, ingredients, and drink ingredients.

"Good morning, Lijun." Daigo Sugiyama greeted Fu Ji Kenri.

"Good morning, Big Go."

Compared with Sugiyama, who has already put into work, Fu Ji Xianli, who has just gotten up, does not seem so energetic.

After moving the things into the kitchen, Sugiyama's voice continued to come through a wall, "By the way, Rio-kun, I see that the small garden behind the house has been barren, do you want to cultivate some flowers and plants in the back?" ”

The main entrance to the café is facing south, and the house has a north-facing back door at the back, and outside the back door is a small garden surrounded by a low wall, and through the kitchen window, the bare dirt of the garden can be seen just enough.

"Can you grow green onions?" Fu Jixian didn't think about it, so he said.

"Green onions? Why green onions? ”

"Well, isn't this kind of small open space used to grow things like onions, ginger, garlic, cucumbers, eggplants, gourds, leeks, and so on?"

“……”

It is clear that the thinking loops of both sides are not in the same frequency band.

Fu Jixianli, a true Oriental, will naturally pursue the productivity of the land wherever he is.

"This ...... Rationale, firstly, planting crops is likely to cause dissatisfaction among the surrounding neighbors, and secondly, it seems a bit out of place to grow something like that in the take-out garden of a rather delicate house. Daigo Sugiyama felt that Fu Ji Kenri was joking.

To put it bluntly, growing vegetables is too "local", and planting flowers is enough to be "petty bourgeoisie".

"Exquisite, ......"

Patronizing his own delicate fart, Fu Jixianli suddenly remembered a joke: a certain island country announced the establishment of a space combat force, claiming that one of its main purposes was to clean up the space junk that brought harm to the earth's environment.

Well, that sounds like a tall idea.

But this should not be said by a country that dumps nuclear waste into the Pacific Ocean at every turn.

Nor should it be said that a country that hunted dolphins in large numbers in an era of fragile marine environments and biological ecology and suddenly resumed whaling in a high-profile manner.

Therefore, the geography of the Japanese archipelago can be summed up in one word...... Parochial.

"Li-kun?"

Fu Jixian came back to his senses, "Oh, then let's just plant some flowers and cultivate some lawns......

By the way, the uniform I ordered has arrived, and there should be high school students who will come for an interview later today.

If someone comes to apply for a full-time clerk, Brother Daigo can also decide whether to hire or not. ”

"I'm going to do the work of increasing the number of people? What about you? ”

This is clearly the job that Fu Jixian, who is the owner of the store, should be responsible for, right?

"I have something to go out to Shizuoka Prefecture today, and I may have to stay there for two or three days, so I will hand it over to Brother Ogo in the next few days."

What should Daigo Sugiyama say at this time? In other words, he may be the only employee on duty in this store for a few days?

A shop, a chef, a business miracle?

This fully reflects Fu Ji Xianli's trust in Daigo Sugiyama, I'm not at home, I'll let you be at my house, isn't this trust?

There's only one way to repay that trust, and that's through hard work.

"When are you leaving?"

"We'll go later."

Daigo Sugiyama didn't ask Fu Jixian what he was going to do, but he had already made up his mind, as long as the person who came to apply for a short-term waiter was not particularly crooked and cracked, even if he looked crooked, then he would definitely hire him directly without saying a word.

In line with the principle that having a chef is not a waste of resources, Fu Jixian asked Daigo Sugiyama to make something casually and bring it out, and after eating a meal that could barely be considered lunch, he returned upstairs.

Five minutes later, he went downstairs with a shoulder bag on his back.

This bag is a style with a partition in the middle, a zipper opening at each end, and the material is lined with hard leather outer canvas, which Fu Ji Xianli bought online a few days ago, and the price is 90,000 yen, which is the most expensive backpack he has ever bought in his two lifetimes.

Fu Jixian, who adheres to the simple concept of consumption, will be such a "wronged leader", mainly because of the "functionality" of the backpack - it can be used to bring pets.

At this time, one side of the bag contained some personal belongings of Fu Jixianli, and after going downstairs, he stuffed the cat into the other side...... Breathability and comfort are worth the price, but the disadvantages are that there is no transparency of a transparent "pet capsule" and this kind of enclosed space is not stretchable for the animal anyway.

Fortunately, Fu Jixianli's cat is not an ordinary cat, it is not so active, and it is ...... It should be said that its IQ is relatively high, which can save Fu Jixian a lot of trouble.

Sugiyama Daigo saw Fu Ji Xianli stuffing the cat into his bag, and then couldn't help but ask, "Lijun, do you still want to bring a round long when you go out, I can help take care of it." ”

"It's better to take it with you, the round length can help a lot, and ...... Cats are creatures that are particularly suitable for playing support. Fu Jixian said.

This cat reacts to certain anomalies, so he needs it to show a warning ...... Well, cats can play a "scanning" role.

After saying goodbye to Sugiyama, Fu Ji Kenri took the Shinkansen to Shizuoka Prefecture, which took several hours on the way. However, this does not mean that he has arrived at his destination, in fact, Fu Ji Xianli took a taxi to the beach, and then he had to change to a cruise ship to a small island called "Fenglu Island".

Sandwiched between the three main islands of Honshu, Kyushu, and Shikoku, the waters of the Seto Inland Sea are dotted with small islands, among which Toyoshika Island is a relatively large one, at least there are villages and towns on the island.

This island is only about six or seven kilometers offshore, which is not far, but if you think of the purpose of Fu Jixianli's visit, it does have a feeling of "isolation".

"Is this to turn on Blizzard Mountain Villa mode?"

After boarding the cruise ship and going offshore, Fu Jixian couldn't help but think of this kind of detective story...... It seems that the name of his shop is "Agatha", and it is really true.

Then he took out his phone and looked at it, okay, the signal was quite full...... In this day and age, if there is no human interference, it is still very difficult to find a place where there is no signal at all.

Fu Jixian felt that he was thinking too much, and what he was going to was not an isolated island in the depths of the ocean. After a few bizarre events, he felt that he had become more suspicious.

It's not a good thing to think too much, but the world is always peaceful.

So Fu Jixian smiled, and then he went into the cabin to rest.

After about half an hour, the voices of the other passengers outside seemed to suddenly become louder, and after sensing that they might be about to arrive at their destination, Fu Jixian got up and walked out of the cabin.

The island was already in sight, and he saw a rare sight that made the passengers noisy because of it—most of the central ridge of the island was covered with a bright red leafy tree.

"Isn't that the autumn leaves that everyone loves?"

After blurting out these words, Fu Jixianli immediately stopped his mouth, and then wondered...... Hey, why would I say such a thing?

Many people on the boat pulled out their cameras, ready to take pictures of this rare sight.

At this moment, in Fu Jixianli's eyes, the island that he was about to arrive was like a watercolor painting painted by a child, and the colors were so vivid that they were almost unreal...... He felt that the "color saturation" of this place was too high, and it was a little uncomfortable.

The point is that this kind of scene shouldn't be enjoyed until after October, but it's only just over August, is it the influence of the oceanic climate?

The first scene he saw after coming here was a bit contrary to common sense, which made Fu Jixian full of expectations for the next "journey".

The cruise ship slowly docked, and Fu Jixian stepped off the side of the boat before the tourists, and then stretched involuntarily.

He felt the backpack behind him shake for a moment, and then he quickly unzipped the backpack as if he remembered something.

"Sorry, I almost forgot about you...... You can now come out and breathe. ”

Even Fu Jixian wanted to stretch and move his hands and feet, let alone a cat that was locked up in a narrow space.

After the backpack was opened, Yuanchang turned over and jumped deftly, stepping directly on the backpack. It squatted down, first glanced at Fu Ji Xianli, as if expressing dissatisfaction, then it raised its right front paw and licked it, and began to "wash its face" with this paw of its own...... Well, the round length is indeed just a cat.

After stretching its legs and legs and stretching its waist, the cat also raised its head to look at the mangrove forest in the distance.

"How's it going, isn't it a beautiful view?"

Fu Jixianli stretched out his finger and hooked the cat's chin, and then asked.

The jury seems to be out on whether cats are colorblind or not, but at least it is certain that the scenery in cats' eyes should not be as colorful as humans.

Therefore, the beauty in Fu Jixianli's eyes is not necessarily the beauty in Yuanchang's eyes, but it may seem that the distance is just a foggy, dark, and gloomy color block.

"Let's go, it's time for us to go to the client."

Fu Jixian knew that the cat would not run around, so he didn't put it back in the bag, but just let it squat on top of the backpack...... So there was such a quiet "passenger" in the space between his back, his backpack and the two straps of his backpack.

"Yuanchang, let's discuss, can you walk by yourself...... You may not know, but I'm actually a patient. ”

Fu Jixian had already carried the cat all the way, and at this time he wanted to liberate it.

However, the cat just shook its ears and then remained indifferent.

Isn't it normal for a cat not to understand human speech?
