Chapter 407: Throwing tens of millions of dollars, just for cooking
Summer Spirit's laboratory is also ready, and the master is ready to move in.
However, to everyone's surprise, he didn't seem to care about his laboratory at all.
Three days later, Summer woke up.
After picking himself up and meeting Luo Hongchen, the first thing this guy did then was to go straight to the inner courtyard library.
What a newly assigned laboratory, he didn't even look at it!
Not to mention entering!
As long as you go once a month to get a material, nothing else matters.
Originally, Jin Zheng and Sun Mingfeng were still happily waiting for Xia Ling to complete a relatively simple collective project together, as a good start after he came to the inner courtyard.
As a result, people are good, and there is no intention of entering the laboratory at all.
Summer Spirit once again returned to the previous life of two points and one line.
Dormitories, libraries.
Dormitories, libraries.
Dormitories, libraries.
One day a week, he would go to Luo Hongchen's laboratory with a thick question notebook and ask about some difficulties in the knowledge of soul guides.
As a seventh-level soul master, Sun Mingfeng was already a little weak.
The questions raised by Xia Ling were all strange and tricky, and sometimes even Luo Hongchen could not fully answer them, and it took several elders to discuss them together before they could give a result.
It was his behavior that made the few elders who had observed his assessment before confused.
They don't understand this weird way of learning at all.
After a long time, Elder Liang held back a sentence.
"Is this the way geniuses learn? Sure enough, it's not something that ordinary people like us can learn to imitate. Alas......"
Afterwards, Elder Liang continued to practice striking iron.
Two months later, the school year vacation of the Sun and Moon Empire's Royal Soul Master Academy came as scheduled.
Xia Ling was finally willing to break away from this two-point and one-line learning method, and was ready to go home with Jin Zheng.
Don't overthink it.
It was to go to Jin Zheng's house to be a chef, and by the way, talk about cooperation.
In the past two months, Xia Ling carefully studied all the knowledge of soul guides from level 5 to level 7, and studied and planned them in detail and systematically.
While learning the knowledge of soul guides, Xia Ling did not fall behind in other aspects.
He also often went to another library with a lot of miscellaneous knowledge, and studied all the literature and classics on navigation and shipbuilding.
Combining the soul guide, ancient shipbuilding techniques, Douluo shipbuilding techniques, and modern ship knowledge, Xia Ling preliminarily designed a prototype sketch of a global ship.
On this ship, Xia Ling plans to use the soul guide engine as the basic power, with a part of the formation as the auxiliary, and rely on modern design concepts to build it.
In his own opinion, the theoretical data calculations seem to be not bad.
Maintaining long-range deep-sea navigation seems to be fine.
But what the real effect is, he still needs to find some really knowledgeable shipbuilders to take a look, and even make a sample to try the effect first.
Therefore, in the Sun and Moon Empire, he found Jin Zheng as soon as his eyes were blackened.
Jin Zheng is still worried about what he can do to turn Xia Ling home to cook during the holidays.
In this way, the two hit it off.
Jin Zheng found someone to build a boat for him, and Xia Ling went home with him to sell his cooking skills.
A win-win situation.
When he followed Jin Zheng and took a week's carriage to the City of Treasure Food in the north of the Sun Moon Continent, Xia Ling understood why Jin Zheng strongly invited him to go home with him.
From top to bottom, the Jin family is really a group of eaters.
In this treasure city alone, more than half of the celebrity chefs of the Sun and Moon Continent have set up shop here.
Treasure is the treasure of treasures, and food is the food of food.
A small city is teeming with food and a lot of precious metal trade.
These are the two main elements that make up this treasure city.
Unlike other large families that flourish and manipulate all kinds of businesses.
The Jin family, which uses gemstone pangolins as their martial spirit, has always specialized in only one kind of business, that is, the excavation and sale of rare metals.
But the Jin family doesn't know what the reason is, although they have been extremely generous from their ancestors to the present, they have not prospered.
More than ten generations in a row.
Now in such a rich and powerful family, there are actually only four people including Jin Zheng.
Old Man Jin, Father Jin, Mother Jin, and Jin Zheng.
Gone!
What is even more incomprehensible to other big families is.
After the Jin family had so much wealth, the descendants of these Jin families did not indulge in pleasure.
Instead, he continued to work diligently and conscientiously, without the slightest hint of extravagance.
In addition to the food, it can be said that this family is almost not close to the "wealthy".
The huge wealth accumulated over thousands of years is under the control of these four people who usually don't spend money.
Jin Zheng used to sell two large pieces of rare metal for a few meals, and it seemed to have become a matter of course.
For the arrival of Xia Ling, the three members of the Jin family showed an extremely sincere welcome to it.
A few kilometers away from the city gate, the convoy and welcoming team sent by the Jin family to greet him were already waiting here.
Father Kim, who was a little pot-bellied, was even present in person to show respect.
Although Father Jin himself is also a seventh-level soul master plus a Contra Douluo, he still treats Xia Ling politely, and even has a tendency to make friends with his peers.
For the respect of a top chef in the mainland, the Jin family is serious.
Because he knows his children's temperament too well, Jin's father knows that what can make Jin Zheng praise in the letter must be the top celebrity chef standing at the top of the pyramid.
What's more, Xia Ling is not only a celebrity chef, but also a genius-level seventh-level soul master.
In the face of such a guest, Mr. Jin even felt that he should focus on it again.
For example, ten kilometers of handmade wool red carpet and flowers.
Ahem......
However, this is just foreplay and has little practical significance.
Compared with the already exaggerated welcome guard in front of him, when he really stepped into the gate of the Jin family, Xia Ling felt what it meant to be arrogant.
From the main door to the living room, two long rare metal cubes are placed on both sides of the red carpet!
Every piece is different.
But each piece is worth a fortune.
At least one meter in diameter.
The largest piece is even three meters high!
It turned out that it was really just foreplay!
Nima!
It's too tyrant!
Is this how mine bosses show off their wealth?
Xia Ling, who had been a local tyrant in Douluo Continent, felt the power of money very intuitively for the first time.
It is true that Wuhun Hall is rich, but most of them are fixed assets and invisible assets.
The Jin family as a whole is indeed not as rich as the Martial Spirit Hall or even the Seven Treasure Liuli Sect.
can't stand the fact that this is either rare metal or real money in their hands, and intuitively compared, the gap is too obvious.
When Xia Ling entered the living room under the leadership of Jin Zheng and Father Jin to see Old Man Jin, the first thing he said was.
"Looking forward to the stars and the moon, today can be regarded as a thousand chefs, you are here! Look, when are we going to have dinner today? ”
This wave, this wave is a super plus.
Father Jin is a perfect inheritance of Old Man Jin.
I call Jin Zheng brother, and Jin Zheng calls me grandpa?
Let's talk about each other?
Old Man Jin's hand to Xia Ling will not be able to fix it directly.
It is true that there is a father who has a son, and a father who has a grandson.
Father Jin wants to argue with his peers, even if this old man Jin can withstand it with honorifics.
Xia Ling said with a wry smile: "Old Man Jin, your honorific words are just tormenting the juniors. Besides, you're not in a hurry to start eating, are you? It's only eight o'clock in the morning. ”
Who knew that Old Man Jin waved his hand and went straight to the point.
"Hey, it doesn't matter what this and that, it's the eating that matters. Two months ago, my subordinates sent me a 70,000-year-old deep-sea octopus that had been cultivated for a long time, saying that it was not easy to catch it. It's just that I've searched all over the country, and no one is sure that they can cook it. Fuck, it's all a bunch of shit! ”
"I heard Xiao Zheng talk about your deeds in the Sun Moon Empire's Royal Soul Master Academy, and I have a feeling that if it were you, then I would definitely be able to do it. So Chef Qian, how do you see how we eat? Can you eat it at noon? Noon, can you eat it at night? ”
"70,000 years of scorching sun deep-sea octopus...... Top Sea Soul Beast, isn't it a pity to eat it like this? ”
Summer Spirit immediately retrieved the information of this soul beast in his brain, and subconsciously asked.
This is a very peculiar sea soul beast.
Living in the cold deep sea, but it is indeed very close to the ultimate fire attribute, and a guy called the Yaochang Fire Pattern Octopus is called the two strange things in the deep sea octopus.
They are all attributes close to the ultimate fire.
The former is petite and the latter is huge.
I don't know how much manpower and material resources the Jin family spent to capture it and keep it at home.
Father Jin interjected: "It's a pity, it's not a pity to eat it." It would be a pity if it was just absorbed as a soul ring. ”
Jin Mu and Jin Zheng nodded in agreement.
Summer Ling hesitated, "Uh...... To be able to eat is to be able to eat, but it's just ......"
Old Man Jin raised his eyebrows, thinking that Xia Ling was worried about the remuneration, so he immediately spoke.
"Chef Qian, don't worry, as long as you can make it into a dish, those rare metal cubes in the aisle outside are all yours."
???
Xia Ling swallowed hard.
All those rare metals in the aisle are all rewards?
A rough calculation is worth more than three million gold soul coins!
Just for a meal?
This business is dry!
Just when Xia Ling was silently thinking about how to reply, Old Man Jin saw that he frowned and was stunned for more than ten seconds without speaking, thinking that he was dissatisfied with the remuneration, and said surprisingly again.
"The metal quota out there has been doubled, and I just want to enjoy this octopus as soon as possible."
"Deal, I'll let you eat this octopus tonight! For lunch, you can eat two bites and save some stomach. ”
Xia Lingqiang endured the excitement in his heart and replied categorically.
After being stunned for more than ten seconds, he earned at least three million more gold soul coins, which is also too ......
It's so cool!
After hearing his assurance, Old Man Jin suddenly smiled.
"What else to eat, I'm hungry at noon, so I'm waiting for this meal in the evening!"
He reached out and took out a large belt inlaid with forty-eight star sapphires from the storage soul guide, and reached out in the direction of the summer spirit.
After Xia Ling took it, he asked puzzledly, "Old man, who are you?" ”
"The reward promised to you is already in it. There are other worthless scraps, you can do whatever you like. ”
"Huh?"
Xia Ling casually found a piece and swept it in with his spiritual power.
The entire space was crammed with neatly cut cubes of rare metal.
Of the forty-eight storage spaces of the entire belt, none of them were less than twenty cubic meters.
And it's all stuffed with rare metals.
Father Jin said, "I guess you can't take these, so our Jin family will give you an additional storage belt." If you don't want to go, just cook a few dishes for us every day during the few days that the Jin family lives. ”
"You have all the materials you want, and if you don't have them, I'll send someone to find them. If you feel that the kitchen is not satisfied, we can build a new one. ”
I have talked about business with others many times, but it is the first time that Xia Ling has been led by others from beginning to end.
It wasn't until Jin Zheng took him to the kitchen that he still felt that the experience just now was a little unbelievable, even magical.
I promised to cook a few meals, and the total income directly exceeded 10 million gold soul coins.
It's too arrogant.
No wonder the elites sent by the rabbit to negotiate business with the big dog families back then were directly stupid.
This bargaining kills, in exchange for whomever the brain is not buzzing.
Xia Ling smacked his tongue, patted Jin Zheng's shoulder and said, "Has your Jin family's consumption of food always been so outrageous? For me to cook every day for half a month of living here, your grandfather paid more than 10 million gold soul coins. ”
Jin Zheng hugged his arms and hummed: "Hmph, when I called you here, you were still unhappy, so you just said brother, I will be good to you." As for spending 10 million just to eat, it's the first time, I didn't expect my father and my grandfather to give you so much, it turns out that my grandfather has spent millions on food. ”
"Brother, it's interesting, let's wait for a big meal at night."
Xia Ling punched him once.
"By the way, do you have a Soul Saint and a Contra in your family? It's best to be a Title Douluo, or an eighth-level soul master. Call a few to come to the kitchen and give me a hand. ”
"Huh? Down? Don't you even hate me as a foodie and cook? Unexpectedly took the initiative to find someone to help you? ”
"Nonsense, I'm just forty-two now, you let me take care of the seventy-thousand-year-old sea soul beast alone, do I eat it or does it eat me?"
"Oh harm, who made you so genius, I forgot about your cultivation is not high. Wait, I'll call my dad and our family's guest directly. ”
......
That night, under the hard work of Xia Ling and Father Jin in the afternoon, this 70,000-year-old deep-sea overlord was condensed into more than a dozen delicacies on the Jin family's table.
Xia Ling, the maker, was also strongly invited to dinner with Old Man Jin.
He was thinking about it when it was being made.
After taking so much money from the owner, how can you have to be a blockbuster, right?
Well......
It was indeed a blockbuster.
It seems that the effect is a little too strong.
When a dozen plates of dishes made by a whole scorching deep-sea octopus entered the stomachs of five people, and four of them directly rose to the first to third level......
The four members of the Kim family are crazy!
Father and Mother Jin froze in place, staring at the plate in front of them at a loss.
Jin Zheng hugged the summer spirit and screamed, shouting when to come again.
Old Man Jin carried a bottle of wine and pulled Xia Ling to pay a respect.
The power of spiritual food is terrifying.
Soul beasts already contain a lot of soul power.
When the summer spirit used the means of the spirit kitchen to break up the soul ring into the original soul power crystal, and then recharged it back into the body of the ingredients.
The final dish containing a huge amount of energy can improve the cultivation of the soul master, and it is completely a matter of course.
It felt like five people absorbing a soul ring that was more than 70,000 years old.
Moreover, under the effect of spiritual food, the soul power will be absorbed more thoroughly.
The 70,000-year-old soul beast main material plus the genius earth treasure auxiliary material cooking spiritual food, the final product is definitely the effect of one plus one is greater than two.
It's just a question of how much to improve on the premise of the original strength.
For example, Jin Zheng was directly promoted by three levels, while Jin's father, Jin's mother, and Old Man Jin were only promoted by one level.
