Chapter 100: Transactions

Xu Shuo tore the bread from the middle, sandwiched the meat steak into the bread, and put the pickles in it along with it.

"Pickle Steak Burger √" - If it were in the game, it would probably pop up like a celebratory reminder.

However, here is the reality, Xu Shuo took a bite of the homemade burger in his hand and couldn't help frowning.

(…… Damn, it tastes weird. )

"What's that way you eat?"

A straight guy sat opposite Xu Shuo with a dinner plate, and Xu Shuo raised his head and glanced at the visitor.

It's Anthony.

Anthony looked at the hamburger in Xu Shuo's hand and asked curiously, "Are you so delicious?" ”

"You'll find out if you try it." Xu Shuo said.

When Anthony heard this, he immediately made a pickled steak burger in the same way.

"So?" Anthony made the pickle steak burger and tried to take a bite, but he didn't chew it twice before his face turned ugly, "...... It's unpalatable. ”

"It's really unpalatable." Xu Shuo nodded in agreement.

"Tell me from the beginning if you know!" Anthony protested with a hamburger in his hand.

Xu Shuo took another bite of the burger in his hand expressionlessly, "To be honest, I think it's unpalatable because these dishes are inherently unpalatable, and they have nothing to do with pairing." In that case, it is better to group them together and eat them quickly. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, two piercing glances shot from the kitchen window.

But Xu Shuo didn't pay attention to it at all - why are you not allowed to say that cooking as a maid is unpalatable?

Anthony seemed to sense something, smiled awkwardly, and continued to eat the burger in his hand.

"Anyway, didn't you leave before me, why did you come later than me?" Xu Shuo asked.

"Ah, yes, there was a guest who wanted to put an incense burner in his room, and he couldn't sleep if he didn't have it. It took a little time to find him an incense burner. Anthony said.

"I see, the housekeeper's job is really hard enough." Xu Shuo said.

"Steward Xu, please don't act like it's none of your business. Speaking of which," Anthony changed the subject and asked in a low voice, "How are you going to investigate the ghosts in the manor?" Do you want my help? ”

"Hmm......" Xu Shuo thought about where to start while chewing on the unpalatable hamburger, "To be honest, most of the people in the manor are suspicious, how to investigate, hmm...... Oh! ”

Anthony looked at Xu Shuo's reaction and hurriedly asked, "What, did you think of anything?" ”

"It feels like there is a flash of inspiration, you wait......" Xu Shuo took another bite of the burger, and said while chewing: "Although this burger is unpalatable, it is unexpectedly very stimulating, maybe the taste is too strange." ”

The sound of kitchen knives slashing on the board was heard in the kitchen.

Anthony hurriedly made a "boo" gesture at Xu Shuo.

Xu Shuo stuffed the last bite of the burger into his mouth, slapped the table, and said inarticulately: "I didn't think of it!" ”

"What?" Anthony asked.

Xu Shuo swallowed the food in his mouth and beckoned to Anthony, who leaned his ear over.

Xu Shuo then whispered to him.

"It may be that there are too many guys who are ghosts, and it's hard to check...... We'll check ...... That's how you ......"

"I'll do it? Why me? Would you do this kind of thing, right? I still have a job ...... during this time."

"Actually, I used to ...... So, it's up to you...... You'll ...... then."

"Okay, but in exchange...... Includes ......"

"Clams?!"

The whispering between the two ended with Xu Shuo's exclamation.

"Is this also a housekeeper's job?!" Xu Shuo said with a look of disbelief.

"As long as it's for the master, the housekeeper does everything." Anthony put down the burger in his hand and picked up the light soup, "How, I think it's a pretty fair deal." ”

Xu Shuo sighed, "I know, I'll do it." ”

"Then without further ado." Anthony drank the light soup in the bowl in one go, picked up the red fruits on the plate, stood up and said, "I'm leaving, don't forget what you promised me." ”

"Got it, got it." Xu Shuo's tone revealed helplessness.

With Xu Shuo's consent, Anthony put the plate outside the kitchen window, picked up the unfinished burger, and left.

Xu Shuo also put the plate outside the kitchen window with the fruit in his mouth after drinking the soup, but when he put the plate, he noticed two pairs of eyes staring at him faintly behind the window.

***

In the quiet room, all you can hear is the sound of someone turning the pages from time to time.

Rakshasa frowned, and over and over again flipped through the account book of the financial income and expenditure of the last half year of the black street, and the words were written on the account book with two colored pens, one was black and the other was red.

He has read this ledger three or four times, and in the last two months, there are more and more red fonts on the ledger, and even the black words on some pages look like footnotes, short and few.

"A group of rice buckets, only eating, drinking and playing."

Rakshasa let out an unhappy breath, and the mist on the teacup in his hand was dispersed like a dust storm.

Knock, knock, knock.

At that moment, there was a knock on the door outside the room.

"Lord Rakshasa, I'm Razu, and I have something to ask to see."

Rakshasa slammed the ledger shut and impatiently asked towards the door, "What's the matter with you?" ”

Speaking of which, this month's financial situation is so ugly, this guy Lazu has a great responsibility, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is all thanks to him, so Rakshasa can't help but get angry just by hearing Lazu's voice.

"Lord Rakshasa, there is someone who wants you to see it, and I think you will be happy." Razu said.

"Make me happy?" Rakshasa said disapprehantly, "Come in." ”

Razu opened the door and dragged a little girl in.

As soon as Rakshasa looked at the person, he really smiled.

"Is that you? Gremlin. ”

Razu dragged the little girl to the Rakshasa table and knelt down on one knee.

The girl looked at the rakshasa with a blank expression. This tyrant that everyone in Chewa City fears, the girl seems to be completely unafraid, but her trembling calves betray her.

"You caught it?" Rakshasa looked at Razu.

"No, Lord Rakshasa, what's interesting is that this little ghost came to the door by himself." Razu said.

"Oh?" Rakshasa became interested, and he looked at the girl with a smile: "You came by yourself?" ”

The girl looked directly at the rakshasa and said with some stumbling, "I, I'm here to make a deal with you." ”

"Deal?" Rakshasa smiled even more happily, "Do you know what a transaction is, the most basic requirement of a transaction, both parties have to provide each other with something that the other is interested in, do you have anything you can trade with me?" ”

"Myself, how's it going?" The girl said.

Rakshasa crossed his fingers, rested his elbows on the table, and raised his eyebrows to make a thoughtful expression, "It's really a very cheap commodity, but you took the initiative to surrender, which is very good, maybe in the future it can be used as a model for our black turban thieves to get along well with the people...... Well, I'll admit that your skinny body has a lot of deal value. ”

"Then can we talk about what I want?" The girl asked.

"Don't worry." Rakshasa shrugged, "You haven't told me the name of the product yet." ”

The girl was stunned for a moment, lowered her head, and said:

"My name is Miao Zhen."
