After eating and drinking, a group of people left. The price of oil was rising like a tiger. Every time the armored vehicles of each hunting team advanced one meter in the wilderness, the cost increased exponentially.
Even if the harvest is huge, it is only what the hunters paid for with their lives, and it does not affect their enthusiasm for greeting the thirty-six generations of the scientific research institute.
If a group of old antiques and scientific researchers at the Scientific Research Institute had been lucky enough to hear the hodgepodge of curse words used by these hunters who moved mountains and seas, I believe they would use an unprecedented rigor to make slices and molds for each hunter and to make deeper in-depth studies. Genetic mapping to study whether evolved humans and humans can still be called the same species.
Of course, the results of the study don't matter, and who really cares?
As soon as the front-footers finished walking, an old man stepped into the tavern.
The old man wore a well-made black tuxedo, a white shirt, and a gentleman's bow tie. Even his hair was black and shiny.
He gently tapped the wooden floor twice with the civilized staff in his hand, cleared his throat, and said loudly, "Is this the Lin Family Restaurant?"
Lin Chou couldn't help but cupped his hands, this old man, well...how should I put it.
I have never seen an old man with such a graceful, timeless and pleasant demeanor, as if every wrinkle reveals an extremely free and charming style.
Standing in front of him, I always feel like a hooligan on the street corner, while he is a real nobleman, the kind of nobleman whose ancestors have been nobles for eighteen generations.
Lin Chou calmed down before replying, "Exactly."
The old man smiled slightly, stroked his mustache with his white-gloved hands, and said with a smile, "May I ask if your surname is Lin, the owner of the Lin family restaurant?"
"Well, this is my restaurant, so your surname is Lin."
"Haha, you don't have to be polite, Mr. Lin. I am Jiang Shang, the steward of the Jiang family. I was entrusted by the eldest lady to come here to deliver the invitation to the eldest lady's coming-of-age ceremony."
"...Who is the eldest lady in your family?"
"Ginger Girl."
That troublemaker who went from setting targets at the zombie shooting range to tossing around in the Undersea Building? ?
Lin Chou would never forget that girl's ancestral chrysanthemum knife for the rest of his life, and his scalp went numb just thinking about it.
Well, the temperament of this housekeeper is hundreds of miles ahead of that jumping young lady.
Moreover, Lin Chou's mouth twitched.
It seems that you and I are not familiar with each other. Why did you invite me to such an important day as the coming-of-age ceremony?
The old man smiled lightly, "The eldest lady often mentioned Mr. Lin in front of the master and his wife. You saved her life twice. Well, the eldest lady also accidentally injured you, so I hope to take this opportunity to invite you to attend her coming-of-age ceremony to express my gratitude and apology."
"this..."
It’s been a little sudden since you disappeared for so long, a month or two has passed, right?
Lin Chou was about to say I won't go, but when the words came to his lips, looking at Mr. Jiang Shang's gentle and elegant smile, he was too embarrassed to say it.
The old man nodded, held his hand to Lin Chou, and smiled lightly, "Then, at noon in three days, I will be waiting for you at the Jiang family's old house."
"..."
"I almost forgot. The young lady specifically told me three times to please Mr. Lin not to bring gifts. The eldest lady will..." At this point, the corner of Jiang Shang's mouth twitched, "The eldest lady said she would be shy."
At the foot of the mountain, two black off-road vehicles and dozens of people were waiting, so Jiang Shang quickly turned around and left, his back looking a little hasty.
There is nothing more duplicitous than this. Is there any difference between this and saying to others, "You must bring me a gift, and it must be the best gift."
"Commander, have you promised to go?"
Lin Chou scratched his head, feeling that something was wrong.
Chi Zhi poked his head out of the kitchen with a plate full of foam...and a pair of huge peaks, which made Lin Chou dizzy for a while, and his tone was full of doubts,
"A woman would actually invite you..."
"Slander the boss and get another half month!"
"How blind!"
"Twenty days!"
"You stupid male creature..."
"A month."
"..."
Lin Chou is disdainful and wants to fight with me?
Useless complaints can only prove that the boss who pays you a salary is your boss, and the boss who does not pay you a salary is still your boss.
In this regard, classmate Mao Niu, who was the least favored by Lin Chou in the entire Lin family restaurant except Xiao Qiu, did a good job.
He saw his eldest brother jump on Lin Chou's shoulder, and the fluffy mycelium covered Lin Chou's face and body and began to act coquettishly and cutely. The eldest brother seemed to like it very much.
He immediately followed suit and rushed forward without hesitation.
"Plop, bang~"
Lin Chou was covered in the scarlet juice of the pitcher plant. It was obvious that the ugly creature Mao Niu had inhumanely ravaged a certain poor pitcher plant.
"boom!"
The ball-like bulging fur ball immediately received a powerful kick. There was a gurgling sound in the stomach, and it hit the guinea fowl pen from a distance, and there was a chaotic rooster cry.
Lin Chou never sympathized with classmate Mao Niu who had a miserable life experience.
Because this product is such a waste, Nepenthes guards the restaurant conscientiously and never complains. Mao Niu's attitude towards it is usually to take a bite and it tastes delicious.
There are more than a hundred pitcher plants. Except for the few tall ones of Nepenthes spinosa, they dare not move their mouths. The rest of the leaves five meters below the ground have never fully grown.
Lin Chou held the fur ball and kneaded it back and forth, shaping it into various shapes, just like the "doormat", an inherited artifact before the catastrophe, while the resounding fourth-level demon-planted fur ball made a spineless sound of enjoyment.
Lin Chou thought as he rubbed his fur ball hard.
So what should I wear? What gift should I bring? What words of blessing should be said?
Ahem, it’s not that he is hopeless, the main reason is that this boy has never had a girl invite him to a party, cocktail party, or birthday party in twenty years, let alone the most important coming-of-age ceremony in his life.
The grandness of the coming-of-age ceremony is even greater than that of a wedding, so at least if you go there, you must have a decent gift in your hand, right?
There is no doubt that bringing a dish directly is the most economical, convenient and affordable, and who would cruelly refuse a local product from a poor mountainous area?
Right? Right!
I never expected that the system would actually flash its presence at this time, "Stupid lower primates, feel the warmth from the sparsely haired female lower primates! Note, solitary, life .”
I'll fuck you!
Lin Chou cursed righteously while secretly bleeding from his nose.
The hair is sparse - if you think about it carefully, it's so exciting.
Ahem, Lin Chou took out a handful of round black pearls from his pocket. Well, this thing has no actual value, but it looks pretty good, so it should be very popular, right?
At least, before the catastrophe, it was considered a very valuable jewelry.
I picked out the biggest ones and put them away. After thinking about it, I picked out a few more big ones, and...
"Well, it's almost done this time."
Lin Chou looked at the only six black pearls left in his hand with satisfaction. Well, the small ones were probably as big as mosquitoes, and they were big enough that flies could fly away with them.
After selecting the gifts, Lin Chou went to the tree house to rummage around and found that he didn't have any clothes suitable for such an occasion.
How does this work?
Although Lin Chou has always felt that men wearing chef uniforms are the most elegant, but...
At least it's a coming-of-age ceremony, so you have to cater to the eyes of other guests, right?
What are you so anxious about? Obviously I don’t want to go! .
