Be a detective in Yuanshin

Li Shuo put the book in his hand aside, and then went back to his bedroom to get dressed while explaining: "Gan Yu has the habit of taking a nap, and she seems to have an extremely precise biological clock built into her body. Regardless of the occasion, as long as she curls up in a ball, she can fall asleep immediately, even if it is so noisy that a group of Qiuqiu people dance around her, she will not wake up.

So I gave her the key, so that she can come directly to take a rest during her lunch break. Didn't I tell you that my house is quite big. "

Hearing Li Shuo mention his home, Paimeng and Ying's attention also shifted from Gan Yu to Li Shuo's home.

From the perspective of building type, it belongs to a typical Liyue building.

It's just that apart from the common seats in the living room, there is only one desk left.As for decorations like copybooks, they are completely invisible.

The living room is indeed very big, but it doesn't make people feel empty, and it even gives people a crowded feeling, because the living room is full of books!

One on top of the other, like the bookshelves in a library being overturned, they scattered all over the ground.

Ying lowered her head and picked up a book, opened it and flipped through it casually, and found that there were not only traces of reading, but also some key points, as well as comments and opinions written with a pen.

Chapter 11: Rather offend the villain than offend Li by mistake

"These..."

It was the first time Paimon and Ying saw so many, almost filling the entire room.

Ying simply flipped through a few books that she could still understand, and found that there were traces of outlines and deletions in these books, and even made some comments and conclusions, or the reasons and reasons for refuting some of the contents, almost penetrating and pointing to the point. .

She looked at the hundreds of books in the living room again, and couldn't help but ask, "Have you read all the books here?"

"Otherwise? Buy it to occupy space?"

Ying didn't wear shoes or socks, and her delicate feet were particularly eye-catching.

There is a fluffy carpet on the ground, and I don't know what monster's fur it is made of, and it is very comfortable to step on.

Ying picked up the scattered books at her feet and placed them one by one, then asked Li Shuo curiously, "Does Li... like reading?"

Although Li Shuo was also reading a book when Ying and Paimeng met Li Shuo for the first time, but according to what Ke Qing said, the book didn't look like a serious book at all.

Li Shuo shook his head and said: "It has nothing to do with liking, a good book embodies the thoughts of an author's life or the professional knowledge he has mastered.

Now you only need a few days, or even a few hours, to collect this idea and knowledge in your pocket. The ratio of investment to return is simply inferior to theft and robbery. "

Ying nodded earnestly, indicating that she was educated.

only...

Ying didn't quite understand and said: "I can understand that detectives read books about geography and plants, but why do they still read books about history, politics, and economics?"

Li Shuo said as a matter of course: "I am a detective. Since I am a detective, I will naturally face various complicated cases, so there is nothing wrong with learning more knowledge, right?"

Ying also thought that what Li Shuo said was very reasonable after listening to it, and then took out a book with a half-human, half-lin furry on the cover, and said with a sinister smile: "It makes sense, then... this "I What's going on with "My Coconut Sheep Wife"? There is also a 18-ban label? The protagonist is still called Li? Why is Li Fu Ruikong?"

"what?"

Li Shuo looked at the book in Ying's hand in surprise. He remembered that he put it away after using it last time and put it on the bookcase in the bedroom. How could it appear in the living room?

Unlike Li Shuo, who was indifferent, when Gan Yu saw the cover of the book in Ying's hand, her cheeks blushed instantly, and then "taken" it from Ying's hand with lightning speed, and then mixed it with other books , "Smoothly" took him to the study.

After closing the door of the study with a slam and welding it to death, Gan Yu let out a long breath and said, "Let's talk about the book later, Li, when are we going to look for the emperor?"

"Don't worry, there's no need to go too early. We'll talk about it after lunch. If Gan Yu is sleepy, you can catch up on sleep first. I'm going to be very busy today. Ying and Paimon feel bored. You can find a book." Look, I don’t have anything else here except a lot of books.”

It's not that Li Shuo is not in a hurry, but there are some things that Zhuo Shi can't rush.

Gan Yu, who stayed up all night, heard that there was nothing to do for the time being, and immediately felt drowsy. Standing in place, she swayed twice, and she was about to fall asleep.

Li Shuo shook his head speechlessly, reached out to pick up Gan Yu, and sent her into the bedroom.

As for Ying and Paimeng as assistants, of course they would not say anything. They tried to listen to Li Shuo's suggestion, each picked up a book, and after reading it for a while, they lay directly on the warm blanket and made another book. back to sleep...

It wasn't until noon that Ying and Paimon woke up unsteadily. It wasn't that the biological clock had arrived, but that they had heard the alluring fragrance.

It smells so good!

What is it, so fragrant?

Ying and Paimeng woke up one after another and looked up to sniff. Before they could find the source of the aroma, they heard Li Shuo's voice from the restaurant not far away.

"time to eat."

Have a meal?

Oops, I have been studying until noon before I know it.

Ying and Paimeng put down the books in their hands excitedly and went to the dining room, when they saw Li Shuo taking off his apron.

"Is this... Lee's work?"

Ying and Paimeng looked at the table in disbelief. The mouth-watering dishes, from the looks of them, were by no means inferior to those cooked by Xiangling herself yesterday.

Li Shuo was speechless: "Or order takeaway?"

Ying and Paimeng, who had sat down, still couldn't believe that Li Shuo, who hated the ghost, could actually cook, and the food looked delicious!

This is too ruinous! ?

Of course, Li Shuo would not say that Xiangling's culinary skills were honed together with him for a large part of the reason besides family inheritance.

"Do you want to wake up Miss Gan Yu?" Paimon couldn't wait.

"No, she has to sleep for a while, and she won't be able to wake up in this short period of time anyway."

Li Shuo said that he was sitting in the main seat and was ready to start.

Ying picked up the chopsticks, looked at the extremely rich dining table, and finally locked her eyes on the steak in the middle. Suddenly she remembered the nightmare of last night, she raised her head timidly and asked Li Shuo, "This time there is no magic dragon meat." right?"

Li Shuo didn't answer directly, but instead asked a rhetorical question: "If only the ingredients were counted for yesterday's meal, it would add up to about 70 moras. According to this way of eating, how long do you think Liyue Seven Stars can last?"

Ying Xin thought it was right, the three of them spent 70 moras for a meal. According to this kind of meal, even one meal a day would cost hundreds of millions of moras a year!

No matter how fast Li Shuo makes money, he is not such a prodigal, right?

After thinking it over, Ying picked up the table knife and cut a piece of Paimeng very politely...

Paimon looked at Ying and didn't speak, the meaning was already obvious.

Seeing that Pimeng is not stupid, I had to cut another slice for myself...

Seeing this, Li Shuo smiled sullenly and took the knife from Ying, cut another piece and ate it, proving that there was nothing wrong with the meat.

Now Ying finally relaxed a bit, she saw that Paimon really didn't want to be a guinea pig, so she had to fork up the steak and take a light bite...

After eating, Ying shivered subconsciously for a second, and soon showed a surprised expression, and couldn't help but praised: "Mm, yes, this barbecue tastes delicious."

When Paimon heard that the barbecue was delicious, he finally couldn't help but picked up the fork and picked up the meat high, then he grew his mouth and bit into it.

...

...

I! ! ! !

Li Shuo!

荧！

I fight with Mu Meng!

Paimon endured the pain, tears welling in his eyes.

The painful memories of last night were once again engraved on Paimon's body.

At this time, Ying didn't hold back, and wailed in pain along with Paimon.

Chapter 12: Dragon Meat Worth [-] Mora

If you share blessings, you are good friends; if you share difficulties, you are bad friends.

In terms of "crumbs", Ying is almost on par with Li Shuo.

If you want to die together, I can't be the only one who suffers. Regarding the above point, Ying will always stick to it!

In addition, Li Shuo didn't lie in one sentence. Sure enough, during the lunch break, Gan Yu couldn't wake up no matter how loud the noise was.

At least for now, Ying and Paimon's wailing that almost blows the roof off, still can't wake up Gan Yu who is sleeping, it can only be said that this is also a skill.

Ying and Paimeng picked up the soup in front of them and ignored the soup, just poured it into their mouths, finally relieved the strange taste in their mouths to some extent.

Seeing the reaction of Ying and Paimeng, Li Shuo smiled in satisfaction and said, "I don't know how long the Liyue Seven Stars can last for this kind of extravagant consumption. But for me, I can guarantee that you will spend every day of the year all year round. You can enjoy this high-grade Warcraft meat."

fluorescent:"..."

This... Li is spending too much money just to vent his anger!

And Li's tone, it's too long!

Yesterday's revenge was not enough, continue today?

Although the taste was bad, the effect was obvious. At least after eating the dragon meat yesterday, Ying's perception of the elements had improved visible to the naked eye.

Of course, after eating too much of this kind of magic dragon meat, the improvement effect will definitely get worse and worse. For example, after Ying finished eating now, she feels that the improvement is less than one-tenth compared to yesterday.

If you eat it again, it may not even improve, only the unsavory smell remains.

But these are not the point, the point is that this is a lunch worth 70 Mora!

Eat it, there is no improvement effect, don't eat it, 70 Mora!

Finally, Ying and Paimon ate it with their eyes closed, but at this moment Li Shuo got up and picked up the plate in front of them, and dumped the dragon meat inside into the trash can beside him.

"Li...what is Li doing, this is millions of moras..."

Both Ying and Paimeng were shocked, no matter how rich Li was, he couldn't spend it like this, right?

Li Shuo took his rice and explained with a smile: "A million moras? Actually not.

Yesterday I said that the value of that ton of dragon meat was at least 70 moras, but I was not wrong on this point.It even said that if you go to Xinyuexuan or Liuliting to order this dish, 70 Mora probably won't be able to afford it.

But I never said, is this magic dragon meat really that valuable? "

Ying, who was lying on the chair, suddenly grabbed something, she sat up suddenly and asked curiously, "What does Li mean..."

Li Shuo used his chopsticks to pick up the piece of magic dragon meat in front of him and said: "As far as this magic dragon meat is concerned, it can indeed improve people's physique and improve people's perception of elements.

But if you really want to improve your physique, or the perception of elements, and spend 70 moras to buy some expensive alchemy medicines without side effects, it will definitely improve your personal improvement even more.

Take a step back and say that if you just want to improve your combat power, you can take 70 moras to find mercenaries, or even hire a ten-man team in Liyue to guard you day and night for a week.

But... the dragon meat has other added value, and these are the reasons why it can be sold for 70 Mora.

For example, the face of the strong, such as the elegance of the nobility, such as the luxury of the upper class.

This is like a brand premium, so the high price is not necessarily a disadvantage for it, and it may even be a selling point. "

After hearing this, Ying probably understood what Li Shuo meant. The reason why the magic dragon meat is expensive is because of its high quality.

After eating the rest of the meat in one gulp, Li Shuo continued: "Things are rare and expensive. This is not entirely true. Most rare items are precious, but that doesn't mean that precious things must be rare.

For example, the dragon meat you eat is not actually cut from a real dragon, at least not the wind dragon you saw in Mond.

Let me think about it... this kind of dragon meat is produced from a cross between a dragon and a rock lizard, called a meat dragon, just like meat dogs, beef cattle, meat pigs... oh, domestic pigs are meat pigs , in short, the meaning is almost the same.

The Meat Demon Dragon is now completely capable of artificial breeding, which means that if the Tianji Chamber of Commerce is willing, it can completely carry out large-scale breeding.

Like the meal you ate yesterday, you can sell 70 moras of magic dragon meat at Xinyuexuan or Liuli Pavilion. If you go through internal channels, [-] moras is almost the same. "

"Seven...seven thousand moras?"

Ying and Paimon looked at each other, and they froze.

Their eyes are dull and their eyes are loose, as if life has no meaning.

This blow to Zhuo Shi was a bit big, it was no longer limited to killing people and punishing their hearts, it had risen to the point where they would only be willing to give up if their souls were scattered.

Li Shuo didn't care whether the two of them still had the heart to continue listening. He continued on his own: "Then again, the meat dragon can improve a person's physique and enhance their perception of elements. For ordinary people, Regardless of whether they have the Eye of God or not, if they can eat the dragon meat, it can indeed improve their physique.

If the Tianji Chamber of Commerce breeds on a large scale and takes the route of small profits but quick turnover, the money they earn should not be small, and the residents of Liyue and even the entire Tivat continent will also benefit.

A large amount of demand will inevitably lead to the Tianji Chamber of Commerce to hire more employees to raise, slaughter, and cook, which will create a large number of jobs, which means that more employees will become rich.

These wealthy employees will also have spending power, and they will be able to visit the Tianji Chamber of Commerce more frequently, bringing more benefits to the Tianji Chamber of Commerce. "

"Why didn't the Tianji Chamber of Commerce do this?"

Ying and Paimon also recovered a little bit at this time, but they were still very depressed.

Although 70 morana is also money, but every time they think that they have eaten [-] morana, it is worth [-] morana, and the two of them still have the idea of ​​wanting to drag Li Shuo to die together.
