novelA Great Opportunity (3)

"Comfortable!" Ling Ping'an ate another strand of mutton.
His body had become extremely warm.
More importantly, this mutton was really fragrant!
It was too fragrant!
This was a delicacy created by the combination of a secret perfume, excellent mutton, and his excellent cooking skills!
"It was so worth it!" Ling Ping'an exclaimed, "That customer's secret perfume is really good!"
At this moment, Situ He and Sun Jinyi no longer had the energy and extra thoughts to listen to and think about the meaning behind Ling Pingan's words.
They had already been pushed to the limit!
Sitting on the small stool, Sun Jinyi felt that his entire body was like a furnace.
His skin, muscles, and bones were boiling hot, making him dizzy.
If it weren't for the fact that his body was very comfortable, he would have thought that he had a high fever.
Moreover, he began to feel..
In his pores..
In his meridians..
Something was stirring.
There was an extremely sturdy door that was being slowly pushed by a powerful strength.
He knew that if he immediately started cultivating, .
He would most likely be able to immediately open the heaven's door and awaken as a transcendent being!
However...
He didn't even want to move.
He just wanted to sit like this.
His stomach was filled with boiling hot gravy.
Heat was constantly being generated from his limbs and bones.
"This is an opportunity..."
No matter how stupid he was, he knew that he had hit the jackpot.
This lamb was indeed a top-notch spirit food!
No, it should be an immortal feast!
Was this really mutton?
Was this not dragon liver and phoenix gall?
And beside Sun Jinyi, Situ He wasn't any better.
This major-general of the Blackguard couldn't care less about etiquette now.
His windbreaker had been taken off and hung on the stool. The buttons of his underwear had also been unbuttoned.
The cold wind blew on his body.
Before he even got close, it had already turned into a hot wind.
He felt that the temperature on his body's skin could probably be used to refine steel!
All the psionic power in his body's meridians had been filled to the brim!
What made him even more surprised or shocked was..
The excess psionic power was slowly seeping into his limbs, bones, and meridians bit by bit.
Just like protein, it was becoming a reserve in his body!
This psionic power was forming a brand-new tissue in his body.
It was similar to fat!
It could become his energy reserve when necessary!
This made Situ He couldn't help but think about it.
Because he already understood that just this meal alone was enough to make his future wider!
It was equivalent to tying a few rocket engines to him.
When he made a breakthrough, he would provide him with support!
Therefore, he knew that he might be able to catch up to the commander-in-chief in the future!
"Such a generous offer..." Situ He could not help but think, "How should I repay it?!"
This was very important!
Because, to the federal empire, taking the emperor's salary and being loyal to the emperor was a cultural tradition that had existed for thousands of years.
As for the blackguard, they were different from the transcendent being from other foreign countries. They were willing to be loyal to the country and the people.
It was also because of this tradition!
Eating the emperor's salary and being loyal to the emperor.
The people raised them, so they had to be loyal to the people and the country!
Hence, the problem came.
After this meal, to Situ He, it was equivalent to establishing a contract.
If he ate someone else's food, he would at least have to work for him, not to mention working for him!
This was why Boyi and Uncle Qi would rather go to the mountains to eat wild vegetables and starve to death than eat the food that King Wu Zhou had given him.
But the problem was..
"What can I do for him?"
Situ He thought about it and realized that he could not do anything.
Because in front of him, Situ He knew that he was just a dew in the morning, a bug in the water.
How could a person who lived and died have the confidence to say such big words like 'repay kindness'?
This was very uncomfortable.
Thinking of this, Situ He stood up and said to the ancient god who was feeding his pet with mutton, the cat goddess, "Sir, I really don't know how to repay your hospitality tonight!"
As he said this, he bowed deeply and solemnly.
Sun Jinyi was not stupid. He immediately followed suit and bowed deeply, "I am the same!"
After this meal, Sun Jinyi also discovered a problem.
Although he didn't really understand the world of transcendent being.
He had heard of some.
In the world of transcendent being, the higher one went, the more precious the things they needed and the things they needed!
Ordinary capital and the little money in their hands were not even enough for them to hear a single sound!
Only countries, powerful countries, had the ability to support powerful transcendent being!
The growth of every general of the Blackguard was the result of the consumption of countless resources and resources!
This was the reason why the Blackguard was loyal to the country.
It was also the reason why foreign countries were controlled and played by the transcendent being.
When these small countries were unable to nurture powerful extraordinaires on their own.
Then, those extraordinaires would definitely turn around and control the country.
Ling Ping'an looked at these two people in astonishment.
He scratched his head and smiled."Why are you two being so polite?"
"It's just a simple meal..."
He roughly knew the reason why these two were so serious.
One of them was the old republic!
The old republic's personality was like this.
They were deeply influenced by traditional ideas. Courtesy, righteousness, loyalty, and filial piety. What they respected was the grace of a meal and paying a thousand gold coins for it!
It was very old-fashioned!
The other one had been beaten up by life. Presumably, his personality was also inevitably biased towards conservatism and tradition.
But the problem was...
Ling Ping'an felt that even according to traditional ideas, treating these two to a meal was nothing extraordinary.
This was because the traditional so-called 'one meal of kindness, a thousand gold' was conditional.
It was not a simple meal that could make people sacrifice their lives to repay it.
The basic condition was that they were going to starve to death or that this meal was obtained under extremely tough conditions.
For example, in the ancient famine era, Ling Ping'an did not eat anything, but when he saw the two poor people, he gave them the little food that he had at home.
This was the traditional prerequisite.
So...
'It's probably just that my cooking is too good and I conquered them...' Ling Ping'an thought. 'Of course, I can't rule it out. It's just that their personality makes them so they want to be polite with me...'
Thinking of this, Ling Ping'an stood up."The two of you really don't need to be so polite with me..."
"It's just a meal..."
He rubbed his hands and smiled."If you really want to repay me, bring a few customers to take care of my business!"
The young bookstore owner's face was smiling extremely sincerely and brightly under the charcoal fire.
However, these words completely changed the way Situ He and Sun Jinyi heard it.
"It's just a meal..."
"To him, maybe it really is just like this..."
"But, can I ignore it?" Situ He thought.
Definitely not!
First, this could not go past his true heart!
Second...
The King of Hell saw that little ghosts were hard to deal with..
The big figures waved their hands and said, "I don't care, and I don't care.".
But the people below might not!
In ancient times, even the kings themselves did not remember the so-called death of their subjects, but the eunuchs and close officials around him did not dare to forget it.
Because what if His Majesty remembered it and asked about it but didn't do it?
That would be extremely disrespectful!
His entire family would die!
It was the same principle!
Those terrifying monsters in this bookstore would surely remember it.
In this situation, Situ He understood that he had to bring a few people here to 'take care'of this person's business.
Sun Jinyi, on the other hand, had a different mindset.
"Such top-notch godly food... is just a meal that can be obtained at any time..."
"Senior's strength truly makes me look up to him..."
"No wonder even the general of the Blackguard has to suck up to him..."
"If I'm able to achieve something in the future, I'll definitely think of ways to repay him!"
As for now, Sun Jinyi knew what he was capable of.
He also knew his position.
Taking care of his business?
Even if he were to sell him, he probably wouldn't be able to make up for this 'simple meal' of eleven!
Where would he go to find people who could afford to buy goods of the same or even higher grade?
He was only a capitalist.
And in this world, capital was just a worker who worked for extraordinary people.
Thinking of this, Sun Jinyi suddenly remembered.
He indeed didn't have the capital and ability...
But it didn't mean that other people couldn't do it!
Outside of the Blackguard, those powerhouses who were outside of the Blackguard system..
Sun Jinyi knew that this was the real opportunity!
A big opportunity!
Acting as a pimp and middleman, introducing other powerhouses to this person, building bridges...
At the thought of this, the Sun Family's talent awakened in his body.
This was a big deal!
A real big deal!
