"It smells so good!"

"This one is delicious!"

"This one is delicious, too!"

"It's delicious!"

“……”

Dong Chen felt that he probably couldn't eat enough today.

It's okay to treat yourself as a thank you, but it's another thing to make yourself hungry.

"Is it that delicious?"

I can't wait any longer, I can't be polite anymore, Dong Chen said as he picked up a piece of meat and ate it.

"You're also from the imperial capital, how can you be like you've never seen the world?"

Xia, who was eating, was asked this question and asked unceremoniously, "Is there any relationship between seeing the world and whether the barbecue is delicious or not?" ”

"The things in the imperial capital are delicious?"

"You say that," Dong Chen said after tasting Pinxia's philosophical words, "Whether it tastes good or not and where it is, it really has nothing to do with it!" ”

"That's right," said Thea, wiping the spice from her lips with her fingers, curling the corners of her mouth, "to be able to say such things shows that I am from the imperial capital." ”

"There's nothing directly related to that." Dong Chen complained ruthlessly beside him, and by the way, he stuffed a piece of meat into his mouth.

"You-"

"Hmph, I'll eat you poor!"

Dong Chen didn't understand why Xia had such a good relationship with him so quickly, it was probably the legendary self-acquaintance.

However, Dong Chen did not reject such a local ...... who could talk about This is the best of the best, especially when he needs to understand the world.

Among the few people he was familiar with now, the Great Elder was very experienced in dealing with things, but many of his cognitions were decades ago, and they were not suitable for him now.

The main reason is that this world is developing too fast, and a few decades ago it was still a "conventional different world" model, although the protagonist of "magic" is missing, but the others are really similar.

It has only been a short period of more than ten years, and it is already about to enter the rhythm of the steam age.

Therefore, this situation also makes the Great Elder often sigh, "The way of the world has changed, and it is developing too fast." ”

And Da Zhuang is simply newer than him, if he hadn't brought it with him in the past few days, they might have been cheated out of money a long time ago, and they couldn't count on it at all.

So far, only the two old gentlemen who can be counted on are Mehaya and Andorf, but since they are said to be "old gentlemen", then they can't trouble every day, Dong Chen plans to trouble the two old gentlemen only at critical moments.

And they don't have nothing to do every day, waiting for him to find it, they are very busy.

Now, looking at the assistant Xia who is full of spices, she is not only the assistant to the principal of a high-level college, but also from the imperial capital of a big city, so it should be a good channel to understand.

And it looks like it's easy to deceive.

"That...... Assistant Thea, do I want to ask you something? ”

"What's the matter, you say," Xia said generously, picking up another piece of greens, "for the sake of you inviting me to eat such a delicious thing, I will definitely help!" ”

"Okay," looking at Xia Ya's big package, Dong Chen asked directly, "Do you know how to make money in Black Rock City?" I found out that I really couldn't do anything with the 3,000 dollars. ”

"Make money? It's so easy! ”

Hearing this, Xia picked up a piece of barbecue meat with chopsticks, "Just open a barbecue restaurant, you will definitely make a lot of money!" ”

After saying that, he stuffed the barbecue into his mouth and sighed, "It's really delicious!" ”

"No," Dong Chen shook his head and said, "I only have three thousand yuan in total, which is not enough at all, and I don't have time to stay outside to sell barbecue, I still have to study." ”

"Well, I'll think about it again."

Seeing that his good proposal was rejected, Xia was also a little depressed, with such skills, he could obviously open a delicious barbecue restaurant, so that he would have a place to eat in the future.

However, since Dong Chen disagreed, she had no choice.

After they ate and talked, Thea picked out some seemingly lucrative professions from her perception.

For example, if you don't open a barbecue restaurant, you can open a barbecue stall, but it is not easy to get a license, and it is easy to be copied by people from the Black Rock City Security Bureau.

Otherwise, it is okay to cooperate with the school cafeteria, in the school, it is Principal Andorf who has the final say, and the school is also close, with Dong Chen's superb barbecue skills, he will definitely be able to make a lot of money.

But this is not good, it was also vetoed by Dong Chen, if Principal Andorf knows, let alone support, Dong Chen may be directly kicked out of the school.

Later, Xia said that if she didn't plan to make it herself, she could consider selling the recipe of the seasoning, so that she would have money and would not have to get involved in these troubles, which would kill two birds with one stone.

“……”

"After talking for a long time, why are your suggestions inseparable from eating?"

Dong Chen asked Xia wonderingly, "In your more than 20 years of life, do you only remember eating?" ”

"Of course not!"

Xia was very angry when she heard this, then picked up a piece of meat and put it in her mouth, and said confidently, "My life is wonderful, there are so many things, I'm not thinking about you!" ”

"And I don't even know what you'll do, all I know now is that your barbecue is delicious, and of course I'll recommend you for a similar job!"

"Well, it makes sense."

Dong Chen really couldn't refute Xia Ya's justified reason, so he introduced his skills a little.

Of course, some can be said, some must not be said.

And combined with his multi-ethnic "cultural person" setting, he said something about culture, such as painting, writing, and the like.

But these things are also long-term things, and if you want to make money in the short term, it seems that you can only buy seasoning recipes.

However, Xia was very interested in Dong Chen's skills, which were all the skills of literary and artistic youths, and said with admiration in his eyes, "Dong Chen, you can even paint, please draw one for me!" ”

"What do you want that?" Dong Chen asked in confusion.

"Of course it's for my friends," Sia patted her little chest, "let them see me now, and see the scenery here." ”

"Aren't there any painters in the school? I've seen a lot of books on drawing in the library, and I've seen students move easels and don't they go to draw? ”

Dong Chen asked suspiciously.

"Cartography is cartography, and there are many mechanical cartography masters, but let them draw, then it's two different things, although these two are related, but it doesn't mean that they can draw if they can draw."

"You've just arrived, and you're working in the library, so you don't know."

"Can you imagine them painting me with a ruler? Paint me like a steam engine, I don't have a place to cry! ”

Listening to Xia Ya's "painful" accusation, Dong Chen finally understood that one specialization, how strong or all-round it depends on personal ability.

Moreover, in the modern society of the earth, it is extremely easy to acquire knowledge, so more and more people will become generalists, and in this place, there are still many restrictions on the acquisition of knowledge, so it is understandable to just practice.

Draw a portrait of Xia Ya, which is a simple matter for Dong Chen, who used to be a professional painter, but the drawing paper, pencil, drawing board and everything need to be prepared by Xia herself, and Dong Chen has nothing here.

And this is also a very simple matter for Xia, who is the assistant to the principal, and the deal is very happy.

It's not easy to make money, so Dong Chen asked another question, "How can I join the Cult of Science and Technology and become a ...... Uh, technology...... Clergy? ”

"I don't know about this, after all, I'm not qualified to join the Cult of Techno," Xia said, scratching her head, "but you can ask Headmaster Andorf, he's a senior engineer in the Cult of Techno!" ”
