"This tooth mouth." Qi Wenren looked on with envy and felt that the jujube in his hand didn't smell so good anymore.
But soon he remembered another problem and couldn't laugh anymore.
"Wait a minute, if the chains can't lock it, how are we going to stop it?"
As a result, Lu Jing on the other side was already busy. Judging from his appearance, he seemed to be arranging some formation.
However, the beast control formation was only used by Lu Jing for insurance. While he was setting up the formation as quickly as possible, he asked Qi Wenren to go out to find Luo Changshi and his daughter and tell them to buy food.
Lu Jing's idea is very simple. Since the function of this strange thing is related to eating, he should start with eating.
Try letting him eat a big meal first to see if that can dispel his obsession.
So Luo Yingying found a restaurant across the street and booked thirteen banquet tables in one go.
All kinds of wine and food were delivered to the antique shop in a steady stream.
Lu Jing threw the food to the face of little Akuman, and the latter lived up to expectations and started to eat happily.
It uses the speed of the wind to suck in all the food in front of it, regardless of whether it is hot or cold, meat or vegetables.
At the back, the six cooks in the restaurant could no longer cook the food as fast as it could swallow it.
Seeing this, Lu Jing decisively asked Luo Yingying to find three more restaurants. Each restaurant paid a hundred taels of silver in advance and asked them to run at full capacity and cook various dishes.
After that, they even mobilized the nearby residents.
The speed at which the money was spent made Qi Wenren a little frightened.
Although he had been with Lu Jing for so many days, Lu Jing had never shown such a arrogant attitude on weekdays, so Qi Wenren had no idea that this junior from the academy actually had such a net worth.
Under Lu Jing's Jinyuan offensive, most of Anding County seemed to be boiling, and all the restaurants and shops started cooking together.
The food that was delivered even piled up a hill outside the antique store.
Qi Wenren and even Qi Wenren also enjoyed the meal together.
This incident even alarmed Chief Tongtu, who sent people to investigate the situation. After all, the three northwest states were still at war, and food was very precious.
In order to deal with it, Lu Jing pretended that he was helping Tong Qianxi treat her illness.
After receiving the news, Chief Tongtu just sneered. He had already made plans. If Lu Jing and Qi Wenren were unable to cure his only daughter in two days, then he would have to let them suffer.
Even if they couldn't be killed directly because of Dole, they would at least be allowed to live in prison for more than ten years.
In the antique shop, Qi Wenren and Lu Jing were still paying attention to the figure who was devouring food.
Almost an hour has passed by now.
That face also ate for a full hour, but its eating speed did not slow down at all, just like a huge black hole.
At this time, Qi Wenren was a little shaken. He had been by Lu Jing's side, so he could see clearly that Lu Jing had spent a total of four thousand taels of silver.
Four thousand taels of silver, just to feed one mouth, well... Of course, Qi Wenren also deducted a little bit during this period.
But what he ate was nothing compared to what that face ate.
However, what was outrageous was that the face was still not fed, and was still greedily swallowing all the food around it.
Qi Wenren suggested as he stuffed the buns into his arms, "How about we try another way? I'm afraid that if he eats like this, he will eat up all the food in Ganding County."
Lu Jing was also hesitant. After all, although he had quick money, he still had a large amount of foreign debt.
But if we stop here, the four thousand taels of silver we have already lost will be thrown away in vain.
Although he knew that the cost of silence should not affect his judgment, Lu Jing was still unwilling to accept it, so he gritted his teeth and added another four thousand taels.
The money allowed that face to eat wildly for another hour, but unfortunately it still didn't look like it was full.
And at this time, another piece of bad news came. The ingredients stored in the restaurants and shops were also limited. At this time, seven or eighty-eight of them had been consumed. And now it was night again, so it was not easy to purchase again. .
In addition, the cooks also need to rest.
I worked continuously for two hours without stopping, and my cooking and cooking hands were almost sore. No matter how much money I was given, I couldn't hold it anymore.
The nearby households still have some surplus food, but now that the war is in chaos, no one will take out all the food at home, even if it is to make money.
Although Luo Yingying had been searching very hard, the meals delivered were getting less and less.
Seeing that within one cup of tea at most, there would be nothing left to eat on that face, Lu Jing's face became increasingly ugly.
Is it possible that this attempt of mine will end here, and the eight thousand taels of silver will be lost in vain?
The more Lu Jing thought about it, the more his heart ached. Just when he was thinking about where to get some more food, his eyes inadvertently glanced at the package he had been carrying with him.
As a result, he remembered something again.
——[Yi Zi Wu Bai Er Shi Qi].
The tea made from the strange thing that Hanshan guest gave him before turning into a tree should also be classified as food.
With Lu Jing thinking, he boiled a pot of tea, put the red leaf in it and rinsed it.
Then he poured a glass and placed it in front of that face.
The latter did not refuse anyone who came, and swallowed the tea cup together without looking at it. The next moment, he was suddenly startled.
It was also the first time that Lu Jing saw an expression other than hunger on that face.
After that, its mouth unexpectedly stopped.
It closed its eyes, seeming to savor the aftertaste of the tea. After a while, it opened its eyes again and asked Lu Jingdao, "What kind of tea is this?"
"Huang Liang is a dream."
Lu Jing didn't expect that face to be able to speak. After all, it had never spoken once since he saw it until now.
"Good tea," the face said again, "This is the best thing I have ever tasted in my life."
Lu Jing's heart moved, "Your obsession..."
"Eat something delicious that can impress me." The face continued.
"You just ate so much, there's nothing left to your liking?" Lu Jing was still aching for his eight thousand taels of silver.
"No, I was born without a sense of taste. Everything I eat tastes the same."
This time, Lu Jing was silent. After a moment, he said, "Isn't your obsession a little too much..."
"I know, but because of this, I will never forget it." The face sighed and said quietly.
