After the shopkeeper left, Li Xiao buried his head and concentrated on his work.

At this time, a shopkeeper wearing a gray linen coat attracted his attention.

The shopkeeper was immature, about eighteen or nineteen years old, and he didn't know where he came from, holding something covered in a paper bag in his right hand.

The shopkeeper looked around for a while, and after making sure that no one noticed him, he patted his chest and breathed a sigh of relief, and then trotted all the way to Li Jiuli.

"Brother Jiuli, this is what you want." When he spoke, it was like a firecracker, and his tone was hurried and deliberately lowered, "Don't worry, the things are not left by the guests." ”

Li Jiuli had already noticed him, and at this time, he was playful, and he asked in a low voice: "How is it, you haven't been seen, right?" ”

Although the shopkeeper is not very old, the position he is in is destined to be seen by everyone. Although Li Jiuli's momentum was a little scary, the young man did not look rusty because of this.

"Hehe, don't look at who I am," the shopkeeper said, then raised his head slightly, clenched his right fist, and his clever eyes showed a golden light: "I'm super invincible scud, how can I let the master in charge see it." The shopkeeper's face immediately changed to a smug look.

Then I saw that he exposed the things covered by the paper bag in his hand, and saw that the things that were covered in his heart by the young man as a treasure turned out to be a plate of small dried fish.

As he spoke, he glanced at the direction in which the shopkeeper left, and his tone was a little weak, but it revealed a different kind of youthful vitality. And Li Jiuli's gaze was on the small dried fish in the shape of the falling bone plate.

Li Jiuli's eyes were sharp, and he could see at a glance that as the junior shopkeeper said, the dried fish was fresh.

A little dried fish, Li Jiuli can naturally spend money to buy it, but he didn't expect that what he said casually last night was actually done by the young man. However, the appearance of the shopkeeper made him feel a little funny: "The hairy one, which girl likes it." ”

"Oh, what do you say, Brother Jiuli, when will I be able to save enough money to marry my daughter-in-law?" The young man had a big heart, and looked at Li Jiuli with blinking eyes.

"Poof," Li Xiao held back a smile, took the dried fish and put it in the dark compartment under the counter.

"Thank you so much, go get busy, I'll treat you to something delicious after work," Li Jiuli promised to the shopkeeper.

There was a plate of small dried fish on it, which shook with the movement of Li Jiuli's hand, making a subtle crispy sound. This dish was originally meant to be smeared with some secret sauces, but Li Jiuli said it, so the shopkeeper didn't put anything, and the dried fish tasted only the original fishy fragrance and salty and sweet flavor.

"Thank you, Brother Jiuli, you are busy first," the shopkeeper suddenly blushed with excitement, and with a smile on his youthful face, he turned around and ran back. Even when he hit his head on the wooden pillar on the side, he only made an "oops", and then he covered the place where he was hit, and walked away in a panic.

"Hehe, this kid." Looking at the back of the shopkeeper turning to leave, Li Jiuli suddenly smiled a little dumbly. For this somewhat reckless guy, he still has a good impression.

Maybe just like why Shopkeeper Li looks down on Li Jiuli a few times, it is precisely because he will be careful and take care of the colleagues around him when he can.

At this time, there were no guests, and Li Jiuli's gaze fell back to the work counter again.

The checkout counter is not a carved structure, but a simple rectangular wooden table with no corners, the surface is polished and smooth, and the touch is delicate. , there is nothing on it except the mysterious lines of the log.

And the work here is two shifts, and the people who work the day shift and those who work the night shift are not on the same counter. However, when the two counters are not far apart and cannot be taken care of when they are busy, they can be used at the same time. It's off-season, so there's no need to be so troublesome, so naturally the two sides are used separately.

It's just that at this time, when Li Jiuli was about to open the interface on the counter, the raised hand paused in mid-air. His gaze turned to something that appeared out of thin air, but it was a small thing with snow-white fur and a whole body hair.

Facing Li Jiuli's gaze, Mao Mao, who came back from a walk on the battlements of the city wall, licked his lips calmly.

Mao Mao is not afraid of life at all, or Mao Mao is very kind to anyone in the Li family. Even if it is dragged around by the little kid of the Li family, it can bear it.

It can be seen from this that Li Jiuli should also be a member of the Li family!

At this time, Mao Mao's two round amber pupils turned, stopped all movements, it sat in a proper manner, and said in a glutinous voice: "Master, where is the baby's little dried fish?" ”

"Ha, dried fish. I'm sorry, I've already finished eating," Li Jiuli smiled after hearing this, his eyes curved into an arc, and then handed the other party a white and shiny porcelain plate.

At this moment, it seemed to ignite a powder keg, and Mao Mao was suddenly angry!

"Villain master, you don't care about the family's affairs, pinch yourself a body and run around. Poor baby, I'll go around and get you information. In the end, in exchange, even the small dried fish were greedy for ink. ”

Mao Mao's face stiffened slightly, and then his whole expression suddenly collapsed. The little guy was rarely stiff: "Without dried fish, you will lose this baby!" ”

After Mao Mao finished speaking, he quickly waved his kitten paws a few times, and the pink foot pads were cute, like a little beckoning cat. And on Mao's cute face, a big displeasure was written. Then twist the little butt and make a gesture to leave.

"Okay, I won't tease you, I'll keep the dried fish for you." Li Jiuli, that is, Li Xiao. Originally, it was just to make fun of it, but at this time, I naturally didn't want to really mess with Maomao.

He hurriedly stopped, and at the same time, his hand stopped in front of Mao Mao's body like a guillotine. As soon as he finished speaking, he took out another saucer. This is the one that contained the small dried fish just now, and the dried fish inside was piled up, and an attractive fragrance hit, and suddenly Maomao's face turned into a kind of satisfaction.

In fact, ordinary dried fish, no matter how fresh it is, how can it make Maomao, a hundred-level elf, want to stop?

In fact, it's just a reminiscence of the past. When you think about the past, no matter what kind of creature you are, it's always hard to extricate yourself.

"Don't make trouble, wait until I'm done," Li Xiao finished speaking, touching the back of the other party's furry neck. But Mao Mao didn't bother to pay attention, just flicked his tail symbolically, and then continued to deal with the small dried fish in front of him.

Li Xiao smiled slightly, turned around and walked to the nearby counter, the young man on the day shift had already left, but this person was very good at calculating accounts, and every account was clearly organized. Li Xiao just looked through it slightly, and then put down the manual account book.

And since there are manual ledgers, there are naturally electronic ones. Now that he had gone to work, Li Xiao turned back to his counter and turned on the operating system that he used every day. Pressing the switch of the metal texture, Li Xiao felt a little emotional.

Science and technology are not developed in this world, and it can even be said that they have been strongly oppressed, or restricted! The most obvious thing is that in terms of high-end combat power, the spread of technology is not widespread.

But there are no absolutes, and technology also has the soil on which it can nourish and exist - that is, the common class, the inexhaustible number of ordinary people!

As far as the eye can see, energy devices are everywhere and quite popular. Lighting utensils, means of transportation, cooking utensils, medical equipment, etc., used by mortals...... At the level of civilians, technology can be said to be brought into full play!

Of course, although it runs through civilians and cultivators in terms of use, I don't know why, as the strength reaches the level of respect, almost all cultivators at that time will invariably stay away from technology, as if it is an instinct. This represents the body and habits, which is very mysterious.

Someone has studied it, but they don't know why. It's like, an innate feeling!

It's like a mortal would use a tool similar to a mobile phone, but most of the monks above the realm of human dignity use Fulu, or a jade cylinder to transmit sounds.

"But none of this has anything to do with my little boundless realm," Li Xiao shook his head, ignoring Mao Mao, who was constantly agitating his cheeks and making room for contempt.

Li Xiao's eyes were on the counter in front of him again, and the coolness on the wood suddenly passed from the belly of his five fingers. On the counter made of polished and carved Han Xiao wood, which is abundant in Yiyi City, a rectangular "iron bar" full of metallic texture is half-inlaid in it, and the exposed part stands silently, and there are some strange lines like lines distributed on it!

"Open the interface," Li Jiu rolled away from his throat, and then said in a sonorous tone, and as he finished speaking, a virtual interface was suddenly projected, forming a rectangular light curtain in front of him.

"Permission confirmed, repair confirmed, breath confirmed......"

"Ding! You are welcome to use the inn butler system. A mechanical voice fell, and some otherworldly characters began to appear on the light curtain, as well as information about various rooms.

This interface is very special, but there is no comparison with Li Xiao's golden finger interface, at least this interface feels very stiff, as if it is still in the form of a picture. But it also includes the food and accommodation of the entire inn.

Although it is said to be an inn system, it is more like the software of the computer era in the previous life. But in Li Xiao's opinion, this system is already quite good, after all, there are almost no loopholes in the board and lodging, it is very good, and it is also very convenient to operate.

When Li Xiao turned on the system, everything began in an orderly manner.

But waiting for guests to come to the door is always a frustrating thing. Since there were no guests today, even the chef in charge of the back kitchen slipped out to talk to Li Xiaokan.

This master's surname is Guo, and his single name is a Jun character. Although he is a big fat man of more than 200 pounds, the master is not bad. There are some employees in the store who are not very good families, such as a teenager like the shopkeeper, he will also secretly leave a little food for the teenager to take back after work and add food to the family.

"Li boy, I didn't blow to you, brother ...... back then"

Li Xiao smiled and chatted with the other party for a while. After getting some miscellaneous information, Chef Guo turned back to the back kitchen with some unfinished thinking.

As for the hairy hair on the table that was eating small dried fish, the master in charge naturally ignored it, not with one eye open and one eye closed, but as if he didn't see it.

"Have you eaten enough?"

"Not yet."

"Are you licking the plate, or are you chewing the air?"

"Meow, the baby is ruminating. Besides, if you don't let the family take a break after eating, can you give up such a cute baby as me? ”

"What so much nonsense, hurry up," Li Xiao said to Mao Mao, and at the same time couldn't help but reach out, pinch Mao's little cheek, and pat Meng Meng's little ass with his palm. Mao Mao screamed in dissatisfaction.

"People are still babies," Mao Mao's eyes widened, and she looked at Li Xiao pitifully, as if she was complaining silently. But Li Xiao was unmoved.

The little guy snorted a few times to express his dissatisfaction, and then took small steps. Flicked the tail behind him and left slowly.

"Meow, meow!"

It was night, and every family fell asleep. At this time, a series of cat meows are from far to near, walking all over the streets and alleys, which is really disturbing people's dreams.

"Dead cat," Suddenly, a house scolded, and the owner of the house poured the overnight footwash water directly from the second floor. Frightened, two night owls, one black and one white, who passed downstairs, screamed, hunched their backs and jumped to the side.

Fortunately, the two cats were not splashed by the stinky water, but they did not dare to linger here anymore, and disappeared into the street.

It's just that compared to the "rampant" of these two cats, the other cats are much more careful, they each have their own goals, constantly calling friends, many cats from the house, or the garbage heap out of the crowd, soon converged into a large wave.

Li Xiao's counter was already close to the door, and with his ears, he naturally heard the cat's meow passing outside.

"It seems that tonight is destined to make it difficult for people to sleep." Li Xiao just smiled slightly, and then stopped paying attention.

His eyes were on the emaciated figure who had been sitting in the corner of the first floor since he went to work, although the other party was shrouded in a cloth robe, but how could this clumsy cover be hidden from him.
