The post includes the [Death Command] and [Zealous Harvest] that the Lawful Ones have thought about in the past two days, and there is also a latest addition——

[Gift of Servant] The servant's piety will be generously rewarded in the corner, and those who hear "I wish you success" will receive an almost 100% bonus to the probability that their wishes will come true.

Under this summary, "I want to be a servant" crazily flooded the screen, as spectacular as "I want to kill" before the first mission.

A comment that disrupted the formation suddenly came into view - 48728.

It looks a lot like gibberish.

An Yu only stayed for a second before swiping over.

*

After breakfast, An Yu declined Jiang Xiao's invitation for physical training on the grounds that "I wish you would overexert me."

He casually picked up the poetry collection he bought for a large sum of money and planned to go to the store to take a break.

Something big seems to be happening in the main city business district.

There were still two streets away from the bakery, and the road was blocked by cars. An Yu finished reading half of a book of poems that he didn't understand in the car, so he got out of the car and walked.

The streets were full of people, as if the entire main city was here.

The more people walked, the more crowded they became. An Yu stopped every step and stayed where he was when he finally saw the source of the crowd.

"Are they... waiting in line for the corner bread?" He rubbed his eyes and asked Yan Xi uncertainly.

Yan Xi paused, "I've been in the laboratory these days, and I heard from my colleagues that your store is very popular, but I didn't expect it to be so popular..."

The small group of three people in the bakery was empty. Xu Shuangshuang and Maddie seemed to have forgotten that there was such a boss, and there was not a single message.

An Yu squeezed through the crowd, and through the window saw Xu Shuangshuang frantically writing out bills and getting bread behind the counter. Her movements were so fast that she dragged out the afterimage. For a moment, he even suspected that she had octopus deformation.

Yan Xi said "Uh", "I guess they don't have time to inform you..."

An Yu looked around the whole street blankly - the people who had bought the bread were carrying several bags of bread, sweating profusely but looking satisfied as they walked out. Those who were still crowded in the queue were wailing and quarreling while checking their mobile phones. Some people took out their computers to work on the street...

A young old man suddenly grabbed the corner of An Yu's clothes and smiled mysteriously, "Come to me and skip the line. In the past, bean cakes were 40 for one piece and 88 for two; small fish cakes were 60 for one and 128 for two; and the sign in the corner was 80 for one, 168 for two.”

An Yu slowly opened his mouth - "Your price has increased tenfold!"

There are also scalpers in the slums, and a batch of high-end cans will suddenly arrive at the resource station under very random circumstances. The quantity is rare and will be gone once you collect it. Some shameless guys get information in advance from unknown sources, queue up early, and then resell it at super high prices.

He thought the elites from the main city wanted to lose face.

"Wait a minute -" An Yu suddenly frowned again, "Why is it more expensive to buy two than one?"

"Because it's hard to find a pack now. The more you buy, the more expensive it is, understand?" The other party was about to become impatient, but suddenly paused, "Have I seen you somewhere?"

In fact, An Yu looked a little familiar to him: he was wearing a plaid shirt, and his figure and facial features resembled that of a young man, but he had almost no hair.

A few seconds later, they exclaimed at the same time:

"Aren't you the one who came to the store and took pictures?"

"Aren't you the shop owner?!"

An Yu: "..."

This young old man, named Guo Xin, is a developer at the AI ​​company next door and is responsible for the research and development of virtual idols. He eats bread and instant noodles three times a day and sits in front of the computer for more than 20 hours a day. His biological age is 25 and his crown age is 52.

An Yu asked him a few questions and found out what had happened in the past few days.

The Corner Bakery, now privately known as the "Metaphysical Bakery" by people in the main city, has not only become popular, but also has a large number of staunch believers, scattered in every corner of the Internet and scalper markets.

The three popular products are also tied to metaphysical events: it is said that in the past, bean cakes can make people dream of the person they miss, circling small fish cakes can increase the probability of making wishes come true, and Corner's signature bread - as long as you insist on eating it every day, you will be able to make wishes. It will produce strong distortion resistance. Even if one day it is unfortunately distorted, it can still retain its will and awaken super powers, dominate the spire, and reach the top in another "life".

Each one sounds like an insult to the intelligence of the people in the main city.

"But this is what the second young master of the Jiang family said. It's so believable!" Guo Xin said while looking at the small shop plaque with fascination.

"Second Young Master of the Jiang family?"

An Yu rummaged through his memory for a long time, and finally remembered that on the first day at the Minaret, Billy had indeed said that Jiang Xiao came from a wealthy family in the main city.

Yan Xi immediately gave him a general education.

There are two largest wealthy families in the main city. One is the Jin family, which controls the two core industries of energy and infrastructure; the other is the Jiang family, which basically monopolizes the banking industry. The head of the Jiang family is a romantic man. There are four wives in the house, of which the second concubine is the most beautiful. His only son Jiang Xiao is not only outstanding in appearance, but also has double-A skills and abilities. He is a powerful figure in the plutocrats, and the masses are calling for him to inherit the family business. Highest.

After the deformation, Jiang Xiao continued to attract public attention. Every time he makes a big splash on the rankings, gossip reporters are sure to get wind of it. It is said that the Jiang family spent money to suppress the previous scandal of losing 100 million points in betting.

An Yu's eyes went blank after hearing this.

If he had heard this when he first entered the minaret, he would have been even more in awe of Jiang Xiao.

But now all he could think about was the desperate little snake curled up on the bed, its tail and tentacles twitching in pain.

And the perverted little snake who likes to lie next to his ear and say strange things.

He hesitated for a moment and pulled out Jiang Xiao's dialog box, which had been muted for a long time.

-Thank you for your blessings, because I don’t know when I will get the opportunity to repay you in the mission. I vaguely feel that you prefer money, so I took the liberty to promote the bakery. I wish you all the best.

Well.

I do like money more, but...

Ling Qiu once said that poverty and lowliness cannot be changed.

But he also said that only by reciprocating courtesy can life continue to flourish.

An Yu struggled for a while, but followed his heart and replied: How thick is your blood storehouse, and how many grapes can be converted into it?

Jiang Xiao replied instantly.

-thank you for your reply. According to brain calculations, my current blood warehouse only has 0.3 grapes, but this is because ordinary lawful people have limited mental energy that can be used to deduct it. If mental power is not considered, the upper limit of the blood warehouse is still unknown.

An Yu hesitated and said a polite word: If you have the chance, let's try it in the next mission.

-OK. Thank you for your gift.

Even across the screen, An Yu seemed to be able to picture him bending over, his red eyes burning with excitement.

An Yu: If the bakery comes out with new products in the future, I will let you know.

-Jiang's media and marketing team are always on call for you. Friendly reminder: The corner bakery is already very popular. You can limit purchases appropriately to help maintain the popularity.

ten minutes later.

Corner Bread put up a sign saying "Limit 2 pieces of each type of bread per person". An Yu stood on the bench in front of the store and shouted through the loudspeaker: "Hello everyone, if you can understand me, it means you haven't lost your temper yet." Wisdom. This is just an ordinary bakery. Impulsive consumption may not bring you happiness, but it will definitely make the bread you hoard at home rotten and smelly. The store has limited production capacity. I hope you will cherish the food and buy in limited quantities. , Stay away from scalpers. We do not guarantee that eating this bread will solve your pain in life. The only thing we can be sure of is that those who line up in line will definitely have bread to eat."

The restless crowd finally behaved a bit.

An Yu put aside the speaker, hid in the corner of the temporarily blocked dining area, and let out a long sigh.

He always felt that the speech just now was very familiar, and it took him a long time to recall it before he realized that wasn't this what he said to the humans who had mixed up with the abnormal trend in Area 53?

Before lunch time, the bread was sold out.

Maddie and Xu Shuangshuang sat across from An Yu. Maddie collapsed directly on the table, while Xu Shuangshuang leaned back on the chair in an indistinct manner.

"Boss, I want to resign -" Xu Shuangshuang said desperately: "I accepted this job for leisure, not to risk my life."

"Boss, I want to resign too -" Maddie echoed weakly, "I love baking, but this job has turned baking into a nightmare for me..."

An Yu frowned and hesitated for a full minute.

"Don't resign, give you a salary increase——"

"How many?"

"How many!"

Fake corpse.

An Yu faced them across a table. After a long time, he struggled to open his mouth that seemed to be stuck, "Fifty percent."

"...Boss, I want to resign——"

"Resign!!"

The in-store meeting lasted until evening before the dust finally settled.

Xu Shuangshuang will continue to receive her current salary, but the store needs to invest 20% of its turnover every month. The capital belongs to the store, and both parties will bear half of the profit or loss.

Tracy McGrady asked for his salary to be doubled, as well as at least two assistants and the purchase of two additional commercial ovens.

Everything else is fine, except that buying an additional oven is difficult.

It’s not that I can’t afford it, it’s that I don’t have a place to put it. Nowadays, the kitchen is very crowded, and commercial ovens take up a lot of space, not to mention having to buy two more at once.

Although An Yu agreed, he didn't know what to do at all. When he encountered difficulties, he just wanted to find a doghouse to hide in.

So he took the "Prophetic Poems" that he had to read after spending money and hid in the kitchen alone, flipping to the place he had not finished reading just now.

"A person's time is messed up,

Silent panic,

His death flows silently in the river.

A group of people's time is messed up,

The revelry echoes,

Their noise flows silently in the river.

"

I can’t understand it, it’s not as good as the one about rotten rabbits.

An Yu threw away the collection of poems and curled up in the corner to sleep again.

The terminal suddenly rang.

When he saw the officer's name, he immediately clicked to answer it, even though he was already feeling sleepy.

There were footsteps and whispered conversations on the other end of the phone.

Qin Zhilu's voice was as calm as ever, "I heard you're awake."

An Yu said: "Yes, sir. Where are you?"

"Heita, please accompany Feng to analyze some difficult matters." Qin Zhilu paused for a moment, "I have recently started looking at houses for you, and I wanted to ask if you have a preferred location."

An Yu knew nothing about the main city.
