Chapter 36: A New Life, A New Beginning (Part II)
Starting today, there is one more cook in the house, oh no, it's a chef.
In fact, Li Dongsheng had long wanted to buy a clever and well-behaved maid and recruit a beautiful and delicious cook, but because of the arrival of Chuncao, he plunged into the big pit called the system task, and for a while he didn't remember his "great ambition".
At the end of the day, the impact of Fourteen in the first mission was too great for him, causing him to be a little afraid of the system mission all the time, fearing that he would have to make a mistake and have to attack the people around him. Li Dongsheng has actually been cautious these days, however, what happened last night changed all that.
The three scoring criteria of the system, "Concealment, Engagement and Influence", Li Dongsheng realized that perhaps he had been wrong in his judgment of these three indicators from the beginning, or that he himself was not aware of the change in his identity.
In the past, he only had the identity of Liu Seventeen, a member of Loufu, except for a soul from another world who lived in his body, he was Liu Seventeen, Liu Seventeen was him, and everything else had no meaning in this world.
But now he is different. He is first of all a person who promoted the collapse of Loufu behind the scenes, followed by Liu Qiqi, a fugitive from Loufu, and finally Lin Mucheng, a student from Xiangfu who entered Beijing to take the exam. Under so many identities, or in other words, there will be more identities in the future, the actions of a certain identity will not easily expose himself. At this time, Li Dongsheng is like an old onion, if you want to explore his secrets, you need to keep tears and peel off the mystery covering him layer by layer. Li Dongsheng thought about it carefully, this is actually difficult, in most cases, others will not think that he has a veil, or, at most, think that he only has a veil on his body.
In this world, will anyone really have a chance to find out the real mastermind Li Dongsheng? Li Dongsheng thinks that the possibility is too small, because even if the identity of Liu Qiqi, who is the person behind the scenes, is exposed, the identity of Li Dongsheng, who has the system, will not be exposed. He suddenly realized that since the completion of the first mission, his game difficulty had jumped from a nightmare to a crippled hand.
Of course, this is just about simply completing the task, his own survival situation is actually still worrying, if he really dares to wave everywhere with his personal strength, he will be tripped to death on the day he can't keep it.
But having said that, although because of the arrival of Chuncao, which led to the stimulation of system tasks, he was no longer able to live the life of an ancient otaku hermit that he imagined before, but fate also gave him another choice, that is, to make good use of the multiple vests on his body and live his current life well.
Since you can't be an otaku, then be a cash charge, since you have the power to change the world, why can't you play the world?
Now Li Dongsheng is ready to start today and enjoy his life as Liu Seventeen and Lin Mucheng. For the first time in my life, I have a woman who lives with me other than my mother, I have a goal that I must accomplish, and I have a cook who cooks deliciously,... Okay, it's Chef Lang, a soul encounters a new life, the key is that this life can't be changed if it doesn't work, what is he Li Dongsheng not satisfied with?
Well, the only thing that is not satisfied is probably that the hair grows a little slower, Li Dongsheng looked at the shoulder-length hair in the mirror with regret, and there are still about N days and months before the length that can be pretended. In addition, the new chef comrade in the family is a male compatriot. Alas, why do people wear the opening game and pick up a "Ah Ke", why do I get a "caution".
But the male chef is the male chef, if he really brings Miss Qin, or Xiang'er, or a woman who took away his many firsts home, at least even if there are more people to prepare more food, the male chef's physical strength to cook is enough.
Li Dongsheng has no self at all, and he should not acquiesce to Lian Shen's consciousness of being a cook in his family.
Li Dongsheng put his hair in his hat and went out with his origami fan.
After dinner, the preferred place to go out for a walk, Li Dongsheng chose the nearest teahouse.
In ancient times, the teahouse was similar to the chat group, post bar, and forum in later generations, and most of them were the gathering place of some people who lived in one place and could only learn about the world through some fixed places. For example, Li Dongsheng "frequented" the Guanhai Pavilion, but a teahouse has the name of an observation deck, and all the idlers and visitors gathered in it are on Suzaku Street.
In ancient times, most of the people who could have spare money to come to the teahouse were people with small savings, especially in places like Suzaku Street, where a bunch of young guys got together, and none of them were simple in terms of identity. Therefore, Li Dongsheng actually doesn't like to come to a place like Guanhai Pavilion on weekdays, because there are too few scholars of his age who have nothing to do and go to a teahouse with a group of old masters, and they will inevitably be glanced at by strange eyes. In the past, he was "fascinated" by the wind, but today, in order to make Lin Mucheng's image more three-dimensional and vivid, in fact, it is essentially to say the sentence "I heard it from the teahouse" when revealing the news, so he had to go on a field trip.
After all, you have never been out of the house, and you don't believe the news you heard in the teahouse, although he did "hear" the news of the teahouse at home.
In order not to attract attention, Li Dongsheng deliberately came late, and sure enough, when he arrived, under the storyteller's wonderful performance, everyone didn't have the extra heart to pay attention to whether there were more people around.
Li Dongsheng looked around, the places near the platform were full, and he just found a remote position to sit down, except for Xiao Er, who came over to greet him lightly, and did not attract the attention of others.
Li Dongsheng ordered a pot of strong tea casually, but carefully selected the dim sum. In fact, he is not to blame, even if the pig's trotters at noon are returned to the pot to make up the salt, the taste is really not much better, and the lunch is basically solved by Lian Shen's shredded radish. At noon, there was less oil and water in his stomach, and as soon as he took a nap, Li Dongsheng felt that his stomach was empty again, which was also one of the important reasons why he left his base.
What, why don't you call him Lian Shen and Chuncao when he eats? The people who talk about books and joke in this teahouse are a group of big men, and it's hard to say something with a little girl, and then people will think that he Li Dongsheng is playing music, after all, no one in the teahouse came with a maid, and even if there was a meeting, the maid was driven home. As for Lian Shen, the wound on this thing's face has not healed yet, and it is really not suitable to go out, so it's not that he is clamoring to cook, but he hasn't eaten enough, I'm sorry.
Speaking of the dim sum of the teahouse, in fact, the teahouse is profitable, the tea fee is a little, and the melon seed dim sum is also a little. To put it bluntly, it is to buy a seat fee, and after paying the money, you can find a seat to sit down, and ordinary tea and melon seeds are enough. But this person plays together, and it is not tasteful enough to eat and drink. If you don't drink the ordinary tea in the teahouse, and you want to have some West Lake Longjing or something, you will have to pay more, which is considered an extra service. In addition to that, dim sum is also a big head. Because those who come to the teahouse have everything at any time, and the dim sum in this teahouse is also everything. Some come early, you can call buns, dumplings, tofu brains, not to mention, even if you want to have a bowl of oily noodles, there is no problem at all. It's noon, sesame cakes, pies, roast chicken and duck, all kinds of lo-mei, etc., as long as you want, the teahouse can also find it for you. Even at night, a steaming bowl of chaos or something is common.
And this teahouse listens to books, and when you hear it, you have to tell people that the reward for the book is not, otherwise these people don't lack this amount of money, so it's embarrassing to prostitute for nothing? Out of guilt, Li Dongsheng didn't dare to order some big fish and meat, ordered some pastries in sesame almonds and took it, and paid an extra one or two silver as a reward for the storyteller. Waiting for the two pastries to be eaten, Li Dongsheng suddenly dared to feel a lot more solid in his belly. Although the sugar making process is not good in ancient times, the ability to use all kinds of ingredients is really a must, and this handmade organic food, although the taste is not as heavy as in the previous life, but it tastes very good.
Li Dongsheng, who had solved the problem of "survival", began to pay attention to the food on the "spiritual" level.
The storyteller on this stage has actually been talking for a while, and at this time he is talking about the most popular in Shiling City, and even the Southern Chu Buddha Kingdom that has gradually become popular in the entire Great Zhou Dynasty, as well as the peerless elixir of Taiyi Xuantian Creation Golden Pill - Taiyi Xuantian Creation Golden Pill that is a furnace in ten years and a hundred years in the royal family.
