Sauichiro: rebuilding Ashina from the obliteration of the pillar

Chapter 27 Chicken God

Since Kuro followed Rakuhime's suggestion and replaced the electric lights with five-color rice glass lanterns, and had a whim to stick yellow luminous rice on the surface of the large characters on the signboard, the business in the store has really improved.

Or hot is not an exaggeration.

Of course, some girls listened to the words of the two girls next to Luo Ji, and wanted to obtain the invisibility supernatural power and then draw their minds (to escape without redeeming themselves), so they kept staring at the green glowing snacks to buy, which led to this. This kind of dim sum has always been in short supply.

However, most of the customers came in because they were curious about the unique lighting effects here.When they saw the glowing dim sum, they were also shocked.

Later, these tourists heard the rumors about the various effects of the light-emitting snacks in Yoshiwara, and they became repeat customers from being fresh.

However, the dim sum shop has never publicly admitted that it has any effect, and Genichiro let them spread more and more mysterious.

Some people even claimed that the orange dim sum has a yang-supporting effect, so Kuro had to ask each customer to buy it in limited quantities.

Furthermore, Jiulang's cooking method is very natural, and the taste and color of the dim sum are extremely authentic. The taste alone is enough to leave a lot of gluttonous food.

In just a few days, many customers who have never visited Yoshiwara came in from outside, just to see what the glowing dim sum looks like.

But there are only ten tables in the store, and most people have to line up, coming and going, but the girls around have a new batch of customers.As a result, the relationship between them and their neighbors was immediately shortened a lot.

Kuro has been very busy every day since the afternoon.

Xianichiro, on the other hand, was extremely happy. The stable reputation points he had gained in the past few days were all around 2000.

Now, he has accumulated almost 3 reputation points, and with another 7, he can participate in the advanced lottery draw.

There is only one reward in the advanced lottery draw—either a very important item; or a character above an elite monster or an important NPC.

For this lottery draw, Genichiro had already sent a letter to Murata through Wisteria Hana's house, but the latter did not reply, so I don't know if there was an accident.

In case the prestige points were enough but no one could be found, Genichiro hid a shrine behind his room in Guanyuelou and offered Murata's sword.

If the worst happens, he hopes to replace Murata with this knife.

It's really crumbs.

"The last large amount of prestige is vacant, it depends on the plan of Sase and the others!"

Genichiro, who was taking a break from his busy schedule, looked at the dim but bustling hall, and already began to fantasize about which elder he would revive.

At this time, Kuro's voice came from behind the counter: "Brother Genichiro, please send 100 light-up snacks to Kyogokuya!"

"Okay! Right now!"

……

On the other side, Anayama brought a few reporters into the Ueno Zoo.

"Everyone, this is a unique species in my hometown. In order to let the world know about them, I would like to ask you to help publicize them."

Anayama was dressed gorgeously and stylishly, walked with the same steps that his relatives did not recognize when he was a bandit, and led a large group of people, which was very conspicuous among the bustling tourists.

"An outsider once ran into our Weiming by mistake, and met a black chicken. He only took one look at it, and was so frightened that he knelt down and kowtowed, calling the chicken god for mercy."

According to Nobuichi Saose, who sent eagles, this is still a true allusion, so Anayama naturally used it.

"If the chicken is really as miraculous as Mr. Anayama said, our "Asahi Shimbun" will definitely not begrudge the pen and ink."

Among the five reporters, the reporter from "Asahi Shimbun" was the most supportive.

Although he is also a little skeptical about the so-called "chicken taller than a human", he is just a small foreign newspaper reporter, but these days, the rich man in Anayama has treated him very politely, and it is reasonable to support him.

As for the reporters from several other local newspapers in Tokyo, looking at Anayama from behind, there was some disdain in the depths of their eyes.

This guy is a rich man who suddenly appeared in Tokyo, but he is not an entrepreneur, and he is not a Chinese. Instead, he looks like a country bumpkin who doesn't understand anything. He just seems to have endless money, which makes them have to care.

However, although Anayama is rich, he also likes to talk big.

For example, the white snake in their hometown is as big as a mountain, and when they are resting, they wrap themselves around the mountainside to sleep.He also said that the soldiers there could use weapons with a range of up to [-] meters hundreds of years ago; and the fish there can live forever and have two rows of human teeth...

It's been 40 years since the Meiji era, no one believes these nonsense for a long time, okay?It's just like the ghost stories written by those folklore writers, it just makes others laugh.

No, this guy just stopped for a few days a few days ago, and suddenly appeared again, saying that he donated a few chickens from his hometown to Ueno Zoo, and hoped they would report it.

Ask him what is so special about that chicken and why it can enter the zoo.

But Anayama insisted that the chicken was taller than them all.

I bother.

The reporters didn't believe a word of it, they just thought Anayama was bragging again.

Among these reporters, three have studied abroad. Is the taller one a chicken?
That's called an ostrich.

It is estimated that this guy donated a large sum of money to the zoo in order to support his appearance, and forced to ask for the exhibition rights of a venue for a few days.

It's not that no regionalists have done this before, but it hasn't caused any splashes.

Since it was expected that this matter would not be worth reporting, these reporters did not want to come.

But the treatment that Anayama gave them was really good. Not only did they treat them to western food and hot springs every day, but they even brought everyone a large box of "glowing snacks" that couldn't be bought recently.

You know, it is said that the dim sum was consecrated by the shrine master of Ise Shrine, and it can ward off disasters and cure diseases, and it is hard to find a lot of money (Xianichiro doesn't know who passed it on, and he didn't refute it anyway).

So they came anyway, planning to use a small board to show off Xueshan. Anyway, such a rich person should not be offended.

In this way, several reporters followed Xueshan to the zoo with their own thoughts, but the further they walked, they found that something was wrong.

This is the direction to the most central area of ​​the zoo!

In a zoo, only animals that are used to support the venue can be exhibited in that area.

The central area of ​​Ueno Zoo is full of rare animals from German zoos, such as lions, ostriches from Africa and polar bears near the Arctic Ocean.

This big talker, it won't be a hemorrhage, donate a venue in this area!

"Mr. Xueshan, are you sure that your hometown Wei...Wei..."

A reporter from the "Tokyo Daily News" wanted to be sure, but found that he couldn't remember the name Anayama was talking about.

"It's Weiming black chicken!"

Instead of being annoyed, Xueshan pointed to the exhibition area with the most tourists in the central area and said, "Look, it's there!"

"!"

"Isn't that where the Japanese black bears were exhibited before?"

As a rare black bear in Japan that can be regarded as a "beast", it has been placed here to compete with "polar bears", but the situation is not very good. It is only due to the xenophobic spirit of the Chinese people that it has some popularity.

Unexpectedly, that important position was actually given up to a kind of chicken? !
"After seeing our Weiming's chicken, the bear is nothing, of course we have to give way!"

"Come on, come on, get out of the way!"

As they said that, several people had already walked to the vicinity of Yuanxiong Mountain. The tourists around saw that Xueshan looked like a nouveau riche who couldn't be provoked, and subconsciously made way for him.

In this way, Anayama led the reporters to the side of the [-]-meter-high fence, and then they immediately fell into a dumbfounded state.

"hiss--"

Several gasping voices sounded at the same time.

Inside the fence, three black roosters with a height of at least 1.4 meters are aggressively occupying the "highlands" of Xiongshan Mountain. Their black and red eyes are shining in the sun, and they are vigilantly aiming at the surrounding tourists, just like in the Warring States Period. The general looks at the enemy as if, it makes people feel chills.

Just looking at the bright red comb and familiar shape, one can tell that it is definitely a chicken, not an ostrich.

"Is there really such a big chicken?"

The reporter of "Asahi Shimbun" was overjoyed. He wanted to come here to support the show, but he didn't expect that the local tyrant Anayama would not lie this time?
The 1.4-meter chicken is indeed taller than the shortest guy among the reporters.

The Japanese have only started eating meat in recent decades, and many poor people in the countryside are only this tall.

But such a big chicken, as well-informed reporters, they had never heard of it before!Not to mention that I have never heard of it in Japan, and there is no such chicken in the world.

Some of them couldn't help but wonder, so where is this Wei name?

"Mr. Xueshan, what did your Weiming's chickens grow to be so big?"

The reporter of "Asahi" asked while drawing a sketch of the black chicken in the notebook in his hand.Now that you have decided to write a report, of course you have to understand some background knowledge.

The tourists who heard it nearby were also interested. The introduction on the name plate said that the Weiming chicken was from Weiming, and it was a rare and extremely fierce animal.But they had never heard of this place, and it turned out that there happened to be a local here, and they wanted to hear what he said.

"Cough cough!"

Anayama cleared his throat, and introduced loudly and proudly, as if Weiming really was his hometown, "Although Weiming black chickens can guard the house, they are naturally raised. They don't need to be fed, and they can clean up the water by themselves. Bugs around, such as centipedes and grasshoppers, can naturally grow so big."

"you're lying!"

A child's voice came from the crowd, "My chickens only feed worms and not chaff, why can't they grow so big?"

"Hey," Anayama turned to confront a little boy, "Little brother, how big are the worms you feed your chickens?"

"Hmm..." The little boy stretched out his little finger, "It's so big."

"That's it. We are famous and outstanding, and we are the favorite place of the gods."

Xueshan suddenly opened his arms and gestured the distance, "In our place, the centipede grows so big that it can entangle some short people like a snake. Can your chickens eat such a big centipede?"

The people around showed expressions of "what the hell are you kidding", and many of them sneered and went to see the chicken.

Only the reporter of "Asahi Shimbun" silently wrote it down in the notebook, planning to ask in detail later.

Since chickens can grow so big, why is it impossible for centipedes?

And Masahiro Oribe, who was hiding in the crowd, shook his head speechlessly: "I finally told you the truth, but you didn't believe it."

Taking advantage of the time when the crowd was attracting attention, he came to Saose Shinichi who was disguised as a staff member: "Hey, which animals did you choose? Nothing will happen, right?"

"Master Xianichiro specifically ordered, how could I be so careless."

"I've already checked. Although that polar bear came from Germany, other countries in the world like to call Russians 'polar bears' to describe their ferocious and greedy personality."

"So, that polar bear was the chicken's target."

Taking a look at the huge monster playing in the pool, Oribe Masayuki felt a little nervous: "Even if we let us Gu Yingzhong deal with this thing, it will take three people to solve it quickly. Are you sure that three chickens can really settle it?"

"Didn't I ask you for poison yesterday?"

Sase Nobuo said confidently: "Don't worry, everything will be implemented according to my plan when those foreigners who Mr. Genichiro doesn't care about arrive."

In this way, about half an hour later, after interviewing the staff and tourists, several reporters felt that it was almost time to write a manuscript and wanted to leave.

But at this time, a middle-aged Japanese man came here with a few blond foreigners, and shouted impolitely from a long distance: "Mr. Anayama, you are here too!"

"Director Bridge Builder."

Anayama knew that it was time for the big show to begin. Although he greeted them enthusiastically, he actually wanted to try his best to stay away from these foreigners so as not to be affected later.

When the reporters heard that this person was the director of the zoo, they knew that this person was a zoologist with a degree. They were about to interview them, and they saw those foreigners walking quickly outside the "chicken coop". Yelling, Japanese is very bad, but understandable.

"This is impossible!"

"How can there be such a big chicken?!"

The Japanese on the side saw that the Weiming chicken could make foreigners lose their composure, and all of them couldn't help being proud.

"Director Hashizuki, who are these people?"

Anayama pretended to ask, but in fact, Sase Shinichi already found out the identities of these foreigners yesterday.

"They are the staff who approached us on behalf of the German zoo. I told you about the uniqueness of this Weiming black chicken yesterday, but they didn't believe it, so I brought them here today to learn more about it."

As he said that, he suddenly frowned, because he saw a staff member in charge of sweeping the floor (Shinichi Sase), passing behind those foreigners, but dumped the ashes in the dustpan behind them.

He knew that many citizens hated foreigners very much, but he did not expect that some of the employees would do so blatantly.However, when he was about to remind the other party, he suddenly heard a distant and loud whistle, blasting thoughts over the entire area.

Everyone suddenly felt a tingling in their ears, and just came back to their senses, but saw that all the animals around - except for the three black chickens, seemed very restless.

Not far away, a few gray wolves born in a litter even opened their mouths to bite each other.

"How is this going?"

As the owner of the place, the head of the garden instantly turned pale with shock, "Could it be that an earthquake is about to happen?"

However, as soon as he finished the song, he saw a burst of firecrackers in the polar bear's cage!The fierce flames and thunderous noise frightened the polar bear back in a hurry, but its huge body slammed into the iron fence of the exhibition area with a bang.

However, the iron fence, which was supposed to be extremely strong, fell under this collision.
