It's a hell game, who can still be a human being?

Chapter 420 Si Xue: No, it's too cheap for you

"If you dare to throw it on the ground, I will throw you into the bottom of the lake to feed the fish."

Si Xue threatened.

"a ha ha ha."

Liu Zheng smiled awkwardly, then threw the skin and flesh into his mouth and swallowed it.

By the way, does this count as mutton with skin?

"What? Are you still waiting for me to pour you some tea?"

Si Xue said.

"Ah? I'll do it. I'll do it."

Liu Zheng quickly grabbed the teapot and lifted it up carefully.

Then, no one mentioned moving.

"Good guy."

This small teapot, which is only the size of a palm, actually weighs over a thousand pounds.

"What? Is that all you can do?"

Si Xue said in a mocking tone.

"How dare I talk about my abilities in front of you?"

he said modestly.

"I don't accept useless people. If you don't have the ability, then go and die."

Si Xue's tone turned cold.

"Being incompetent doesn't mean you are useless. A used toilet paper can also have its uses."

Liu Zheng said neither humbly nor arrogantly.

"You mean you want to go to the bathroom and wipe the other employees' butts?"

"Well, that's not what I meant."

Although he knew that Si Xue was making fun of him, he still felt speechless.

As expected of a boss, he has enterprise-level understanding.

"Ah."

Seeing him being humiliated, Si Xue's eyes flashed with a smile.

She stretched out her jade-white little hand, picked up the teapot, and poured a cup for Liu Zheng.

"Why is this so embarrassing?"

The latter spoke but his body did not move at all.

"Okay, enough of the office games, let's get down to business."

Si Xue waved her hand to stop him from saying the next words.

"Yes."

Liu Zheng is quick to accept advice.

"Drink tea."

"Ok."

He picked up the teacup and an item introduction popped up.

"Name: Top-quality Dahongpao"

"Type: Miscellaneous"

"Quality: Ordinary"

"Effect: None"

"Note: This tea does not have any special effects. The only special thing about it is that it is truly produced from the mother tree of Dahongpao."

“Can I take out a copy: Yes”

"Um"

Liu Zheng drank it in one gulp just like drinking wine.

"Are you disappointed?"

Si Xue saw what he was thinking.

"That's true. I, a wild boar, can't eat fine bran. Only good tea can improve my strength."

He said frankly.

"I don't have the habit of picking up trash. Those things you can use are all rare treasures. It's wishful thinking to want them just for a few jokes."

Si Xue said calmly.

"Yes, I am just talking."

Liu Zheng didn't know whether she was talking about the plane trees, but even he couldn't respond to the conversation.

Some things can't be weighed even if they weigh four ounces, and they can't be weighed even if they weigh a thousand kilograms.

"Take the things out."

Si Xue said.

"Ok."

He took the legendary takeout box and placed it on the ground, then opened the box.

"It is indeed the head of Shao Yanming. When Takamagahara held a cocktail party, I went there under a false name. I didn't expect to see it here again."

Si Xue grabbed Shao Yanming's head with one hand, and a layer of ice spread out from her sleeves, freezing the latter.

"What a pity, they didn't kill them all. If they had, the price would have been ten times higher."

She shook her head and said.

"It's because my subordinates are incompetent."

Liu Zheng said with shame.

Of course, he didn't feel the slightest bit of shame.

He is just a mortal, it's good enough for him to kill a god.

And he killed them all. Do you really think he is a legendary delivery man?
"You say one thing and mean another. What else do you have? Take it out."

Si Xue said.

"Ah? What?"

Liu Zheng asked in confusion.

"Why are you pretending to be stupid? You clearly have a similar aura to this head."

"Oh. I see. Please wait a moment."

He silently recited the honorable name of Dainichi Nijiu in his heart, and the golden magatama soon appeared before his eyes.

"Oh, the mark of the great Japanese noble. You have more and more marks on your body. Are you a popular check-in spot?"

Si Xue couldn't help but complain.

"a ha ha ha."

Liu Zheng smiled awkwardly; he didn't know how to explain this question.

Then again, Si Xue herself had left something in his body, so what right did she have to complain about him?

"I'll take both this and that. Tell me, what do you want?"

Si Xue pointed at Shao Yanming's head, then pointed at the golden magatama shadow and said.

"Ah, can this mark also be sold?"

Liu Zheng was surprised.

"Others certainly can't do that, but for me, it's a piece of cake."

Si Xue said lightly.

"But."

He hesitated.

"But what? Do you still want to follow the Takamagahara God system? Then you really have a brain that has been eaten by cows and horses."

Si Xue taunted mercilessly.

"That's not the case. I'm just worried that if I sell the mark, the Great Sun God will be angry with me."

Liu Zheng shook his head.

He had no intention of joining any pantheon, and even if he had to, he would rather join the pantheon of the sun god Ra.

Although the main god Ra himself was half dead, at least he had a familiar face in Doctor Nile.

Moreover, if the French plane tree really chooses to evolve into a pterosaur, then he will have a powerful backer, and he will be able to walk sideways within the pantheon.

Although Dayi Niangui gave him his mark, it was purely a transactional relationship without any emotional basis.

Strictly speaking, he was even guilty of blasphemy, but the latter was not pursued.

"Don't worry, as a great Lord God, He won't bother you as long as you don't use His mark to do anything weird."

Si Xue said.

"Um"

Liu Zheng hesitated to speak.

He definitely won't do anything strange, but Si Xue might very likely use it to do something strange.

Da Ri Niangui may not have the courage to cause trouble to Si Xue, but he not only has the courage to cause trouble to him, but also a great one.

"It's really troublesome. Sometimes you are bold and sometimes you are as timid as a mouse. I'll give you a 50% premium. If you don't want to sell it, forget it."

Si Xue became impatient.

"Sell!"

Liu Zheng said in a decisive tone.

You might get into trouble if you offend Dayi Niangui, but you will definitely get into trouble if you offend Si Xue.

Moreover, a 50% premium is not low. No one would buy it except Si Xue, let alone the premium.

"You're smart. Tell me, what do you want?"

"I want the body of the Wood Elf king in the kitchen."

He said.

"Okay. Anything else?"

"besides."

After being surprised, Liu Zheng fell into hesitation.

The surprise was that Si Xue agreed so readily, but the hesitation was because he didn't know how much value was left.

Although Si Xue would not cheat him, she also did not have the patience to let him test the bottom price over and over again.

"I want another cosplay costume."

After thinking for a long time, Liu Zheng finally said.

Although Si Xue definitely has a lot of better things, the effects of the cosplay costumes are what he is most familiar with and are very practical.

"No."

Si Xue shook her head.

"Is it not enough or not enough?"

he asked tentatively.

"To you, there is no difference between the two." Si Xue said.

"Okay. Then you decide, boss. I just want something with similar functions to the cosplay costume."

Liu Zheng is a bachelor.

"Okay, let me think about it."

Si Xue turned the teacup around and fell into thought.

He also learned to spin the teacup without saying a word.

The awkward atmosphere didn't last long, and Si Xue put down the teacup.

"Forget it. I'm too lazy to think about it."

With a casual wave of her hand, a fishing rod flew out of the lake and landed in her hand.

"You can fish by yourself. What you catch depends on your ability."

She said.

"Boss, with my ability, I'm afraid I won't be able to catch anything good."

Liu Zheng smiled bitterly.

"If it's beyond your ability, I can help you. For the normal things, you'll have to rely on yourself."

Si Xue said.

“Can I keep it then?”

he asked expectantly.

The lucky clown card hadn't taken effect yet, he hadn't gotten another black koi from the fisherman, and he hadn't ridden the women's elevator that was said to improve fortune.

It's really a bit of a loss to just catch the treasure like this.

"Are you drifting?"

Si Xue just glanced at Liu Zheng, and all his desires were extinguished.

There was an undying flame dancing in those phoenix eyes, but when it fell on him, it was more piercing than a thousand-year-old iceberg.

"Don't dare."

He immediately stood up and bowed deeply.

"You have really learned the essence of bowing."

Si Xue teased.

"hey-hey."

Liu Zheng scratched his head and smiled flatteringly.

"Okay, let's go fishing."

Si Xue waved her hand, took out a sweet potato from somewhere, and put it on the fire to roast.

"Ok."

He tentatively picked up the fishing rod, luckily it was not too heavy.

He glanced at Si Xue, who was concentrating on turning the sweet potatoes and didn't respond to him at all.

"alright."

Liu Zheng shrugged.

Anyway, now that we have the body of the wood elf royal family, the core goal has been achieved.

If you catch something good, you will make a lot of money; if you don’t catch anything good, you won’t lose anything.

With this thought in mind, he swung the club casually and sat cross-legged on the ground without even looking at where the ball would land.

One second, two seconds, three seconds.
One minute, two minutes, three minutes
A full half hour passed and there was still no reaction from the float.

"Your luck is really bad."

Even Si Xue couldn't bear it anymore and walked to his side with the roasted sweet potatoes.

"Eat?"

She shook the sweet potato in her hand.

"eat."

Liu Zheng simply nodded.

"You're really welcome. Here."

Si Xue used both hands to break the sweet potato into two halves of irregular shapes but exactly the same weight.

"thank you boss."

He stretched out his tentacle and was about to take it, but Si Xue withdrew her hand.

"No, it's too cheap for you."

Si Xue hesitated for a moment, then broke off the other half.

"Well, that's enough for you to eat."

She looked at a quarter of a sweet potato and said with satisfaction.

"Thank you, boss. The boss is very generous."

Liu Zheng said sincerely.

He took the sweet potato and stuffed it into his mouth with the skin intact.

I have to say that Si Xue’s cooking skills are pretty good and she bakes the food at just the right temperature.

I don’t know what kind of sweet potato this is, but when I take a bite it feels like I’m eating hot honey ice cream.

"Is it tasty?"

Si Xue suddenly asked.

"It's delicious, even better than the ones my grandfather baked."

Liu Zheng said sincerely.

The grandfather he was referring to was naturally the old director of the welfare home.

Every time the season comes, the old director will roast sweet potatoes for the children in the welfare home.

Children who behave well eat the big ones, and children who behave badly eat the small ones.

Of course, academic performance is naturally the core criterion for good performance.

The old dean is still quite rigid and hegemonic in this regard.

"You are just a human being, how dare you compare with me?"

Si Xue curled her lips.

Having said that, a smile still appeared on the corner of her mouth.

"You definitely won't be able to catch fish with an empty hook today, so put on the bait."

She glanced at the float and said.

"What bait?"

Liu Zheng asked.

"If you want to catch treasure, you naturally have to use treasure as bait. The better the bait, the better the treasure you will attract."

Si Xue said.

"I see. So after you catch the fish, is the bait still there?"

"Of course not. I have already failed in my attempt to get something for nothing, so I will try to catch the wolf without sacrificing the child."

Si Xue shook her head.

"The boss's allegorical sayings are really good."

He took the opportunity to flatter him.

"You don't even need to tell me that. Don't think that little Mantis is the only one who is educated. When I was still in the Writers Association, my grades were much better than hers."

Si Xue said proudly.

"Boss, you were also a writer. What kind of books did you write? Can you tell me the title of the book? I want to go and see it."

Liu Zheng was really a little surprised this time.

"Of course it's poetry. Only poetry and novels can be promoted to 'Narrator'. Didn't the little mantis tell you that?"

Si Xue glanced at him.

"I did say that, but I didn't ask in detail."

Liu Zheng smiled embarrassedly.

His curiosity was limited, and there was no need for him to gain in-depth understanding of this information which had nothing to do with him for the time being.

"Didn't you teach her how to write novels? Why didn't you ask her to introduce you to the Writers Association?"

Si Xue asked.

"Boss, please stop testing me. A servant should not serve two masters. I am loyal to you and have absolutely no intention of betraying you."

Liu Zheng said in a resounding voice.

In the metropolis, except for the big shots at the top of the pyramid, everyone has to find a master for himself.

Although Si Xue had a bit of an odd personality, she was considered a good host in a metropolis where the average child was a newborn.

"It's really interesting. You are such a rebellious person, but every time you flatter someone, you speak the truth."

Si Xue said with interest.

"Maybe it's because it's not you, the boss, that I'm objecting to."

he said with a smile.

"Then you might as well oppose me. In the metropolis, opposing a rule is much more dangerous than opposing a person."

Si Xue shook her head.

"Since what I said was true, it must have come from my heart. I have no choice as to what I oppose or what I agree with."

Liu Zheng said calmly.

"That's right. Take the bait."

Si Xue raised her chin and said.

"If you don't have the right bait, I can lend it to you at 10% interest per day, with interest compounded."

She suddenly gave a sly smile.

"Well, I'd better not trouble you, boss."

Liu Zheng declined politely.

The daily interest rate is 10%, and the interest is compounded, so he might as well ask Niuma to introduce him to a moneylender.

"whispering sound."

Si Xue curled her lips and stood beside him with her hands behind her back, as if she wanted to see what he could come up with as bait.

Liu Zheng was indeed a little conflicted.

The bait will definitely be damaged, and the really good items like the legendary vest, legendary takeout box, butcher knife and boning knife, these main equipments must not be used.

And inferior ones like the Snake Man's Poems and the Human Bone Cane, which are of below excellent quality, are definitely not acceptable.

Then the bait can only be chosen from items of excellent quality.

Which one should I choose as bait?

Introductions to each item passed before Liu Zheng's eyes, and he fell into deep thought.
