I open a restaurant in Mysterious Recovery

Chapter 464 Xiong Wenwen's Way to Death, Forever 18 Zhang Youhong

Cao Yang brought Xiong Wenwen back from the laboratory and just happened to hear the information on the second card.

This card seemed to be custom-made for Xiong Wenwen. It had no combat power and was only about ten years old. But it was obvious that if this card was really used by Xiong Wenwen, he would die inexplicably in a few days.

cause of death:

Pretend to be someone else's dad!

"Humph!"

Perhaps because of the shock just now, although Xiong Wenwen has come to his senses, he is obviously much more obedient and no longer as jumpy as before.

Even the look in his eyes when he looked at Lin Yuan was no longer full of desire, but instead contained a hint of fear.

"That's better." Wang Chaling said coldly, and then closed his eyes. He had lost interest in these cards.

If he has no way of gaining points, it would be better to turn a blind eye to it.

"Boss, I remember there are a few BOSSes in this round of the game, why don't I see their cards?" Liu San changed the subject.

Lin Yuan said: "You have to defeat the boss before you can generate cards. These two cards now are special NPCs in the same camp as you in the game, so you have their cards."

That's it!

Liu San nodded, looked at his points, and said with a hint of hope: "I don't have enough points to buy new cards, so I'll just buy the three previous cards."

"Okay, but I've said this before. The Points Mall has been optimized, so the prices of these three cards have also changed. You can take a look first."

Lin Yuan said this and started fiddling with the computer again.

On the external computer screen, the five cards in the surrounding mall were unfolded one by one. No one card occupied the entire page, but was listed in a row.

On the top is the card image, and on the bottom is the card name and price.

After seeing the prices, Liu San was so depressed that he wanted to vomit blood. Cao Yang came over to take a look and said helplessly: "Brother Yuan, you raised the price of these three cards too much, didn't you?"

[Dahai City·Supernatural Forum·Ye Zhen] The original purchase price was 15 points, but now it has become 150 points, which is ten times the original price!
[Dream Chaser Zhang Xianguang] The original purchase price was 30 points, but now it has become 300 points, which has also been increased to ten times the previous price.

The last card has the biggest improvement:
The original purchase price of [Endless Cemetery·Luo Qian] was 40 points, but now it has become 800 points, which is 20 times the original price!
Fortunately, these are points, not ghost money, otherwise I would really have to greet Lin Yuan and his family in a very friendly manner.

"It's still based on the difficulty of the game. Didn't you always say that the game is too difficult and hard to pass? But if the strength of the BOSS is reduced, it will easily affect the playability of the game, so we adjusted the number of 'monsters' in the game so that everyone can get points better and don't have to fall into a deadlock with no points available because of the inability to conquer the BOSS. Otherwise, where would you get so many points?" Lin Yuan said as a matter of course.

"Boss is right, but I think there are still too many monsters in this game. We need to reduce them appropriately. Otherwise, points will come too easily and people won't treasure them. Also, the gap between monsters and bosses is too big, which can easily make people feel disconnected from the game and affect the life of the game."

Who dares to say that?
Isn't this forcing the "store manager" to continue to make things difficult for everyone?

Cao Yang, Liu San and Wei Jing glared at them immediately, but their looks had no effect on Wang Chaling who made this suggestion.

He didn't even bother to look at the three people, but seriously put forward his own suggestions for modifying the game. "Boss Lin, I have studied the history of your e-sports room. Although some people have always complained that the game is too difficult, as long as they have time, don't they still come to play? This shows that the difficulty is secondary. The game has other content that attracts them, so as long as this content remains unchanged, there is no need to worry about no one playing the game, what do you think?"

"Is that so?" Lin Yuan looked at Cao Yang and the others thoughtfully.

Cao Yang wanted to push Wang Chaling's head into the coffin behind Fang Shiming, and quickly advised: "Brother Yuan, don't listen to his nonsense. The game is too difficult. Even if the content is good, you will get bored if you play it for too long. After all, games are meant to relax people, and no one will keep spending money to play a game that abuses them."

Wang Chaling said quietly, "There are still many masochists in this world."

Cao Yang, Liu San and Wei Jing shouted in unison: "Shut up!"

"Okay, okay, I've received your opinions, but the game has just been upgraded, so let's wait and see. By the way, do you want to redeem the cards now?" Lin Yuan interrupted the tit-for-tat.

After all, these are all big customers.

Although there were suspected bad things in Wang Chaling's house, they had nothing to do with him, provided that Wang Chaling came to the store to consume.

Moreover.

Last time, Wang Chaling exchanged all the hundreds of wild beasts in his home for commemorative coins!

With such great support, Lin Yuan, as a restaurant owner, has to give some support.

With his strong intervention, there were no more disputes among the captains, but due to the sharp increase in card prices, the three did not exchange any cards.

Of course, they still divided Xiong Wenwen's points. According to the previous agreement, each person gave Xiong Wenwen a quarter of the points.

Now it becomes:

[Points ranking list:

1. Chen Qiaoyang: 215 points.

2. Cao Yang: 114 points.

3. Liu San: 97.5 points.

4. Xiong Wenwen: 80.5 points.

5. Wei Jing: 30 points.

6. Zhang Lei: 25 points. 】

After getting the points, Xiong Wenwen seemed ready to make some moves, which frightened Cao Yang so much that he grabbed him by the scruff of the neck and walked away from the Peace Hotel as if he was carrying a kitten.

We have to hurry.

Xiong Wenwen can only use this points to purchase [Bloodline Inheritor·Young·Wang Lu], which will stimulate Wang Chaling to kill him in reality.

You don’t have the ability, but you still want to be someone else’s father?

Really looking for death!
Even if you want to be one, you should wait until you really fool the "store manager" into thinking he is your stepfather!

Wei Jing and Liu San did not stay either. They escorted the troublemaker Xiong Wenwen away together, while Wang Chaling stared at them coldly.

He turned around only after they had completely disappeared from his sight, and said with a smile, "Boss Lin, I'm here to get the diary. Should I be able to get it now?"

"Yes, wait a moment, it's on the third floor, I'll go up and get it."

Lin Yuan walked upstairs. On the second floor of the corridor with derivative ghost paintings on both sides, he ran into Chen Qiaoyang who was holding a package. He couldn't help but wonder: "Old Chen, are you ready to leave?"

If he remembered correctly, Chen Qiaoyang had wanted to become an employee in the store before.

After being rejected by him, I also expressed my determination to stay in the store. But what is going on now? I was still playing games last night, and now I have to leave the store?
Chen Qiaoyang quickly said, "No, no. I just went out to look around and see if there are any wild beasts or monsters to accumulate some wealth."

As a ghost herder, it is not difficult for him to imprison ghosts, but he has to go out to find the ghosts and imprison them. No ghosts will rush to him and leave him waiting.

On impulse last night, he spent all the money that could have been used to stay at a ghost hotel for three nights. Now he is a little short of money and has to go out and hunt.

"Okay, then please pay attention to your safety."

Lin Yuan nodded. As long as Chen Qiaoyang didn't mention applying for a job, he would naturally support the idea of ​​earning money and spending it in the store.

After watching Lin Yuan go upstairs, Chen Qiaoyang went downstairs and happened to meet Wang Chaling.

Wang Chaling also looked at Chen Qiaoyang, but just glanced at him and ignored him, continuing to wait for Lin Yuan to bring down the diary.

But Chen Qiaoyang's eyes were always on him.

Especially when he saw the two tigers transformed from Wang Lu and his wife beside Wang Chaling, the murderous intent in his eyes was difficult to conceal, as if they were about to attack at the next moment.

“This is the Peace Hotel.”

A steady voice sounded, and Chen Qiaoyang looked over. "How dare a small worker talk to a customer like this?"

A smile appeared on Fang Shiming's cold face. He was certainly not a masochist. On the contrary, this was a manifestation of his anger. However, he did not waste any words with Chen Qiaoyang. He just carried the clothes transformed from the ghost coffin and went into the kitchen.

He originally thought that Chen Qiaoyang was quite capable and wanted to see if there was any chance for cooperation, but since the other party's attitude was so bad, there was naturally nothing to talk about.

After a while, Lin Yuan came down with a notebook, which was the one Wang Chaling brought yesterday afternoon. After taking the notebook, he did not open it immediately, but chatted with Lin Yuan for a few words before leaving in a hurry. "When doing business, you still have to grasp the needs of the guests. This is true for virtual games and diary repair. But now I feel that I am getting more and more distracted."

This is thirty yuan, which is enough to buy ten three-yuan dishes in the restaurant and play virtual games for three nights.

And this is just the price of repairing a diary.

Lin Yuan thought about it carefully. He originally only got a restaurant called Heping after traveling through time. However, the most profitable business in the restaurant now was not eating. Instead, he made money by playing virtual games, repairing diaries, selling small items, taming wild beasts, etc.

There are also people who take advantage of the information gap to make profits from commemorative coins.

It is incredible that the cost of producing a commemorative coin with a face value of three yuan has been compressed to almost zero.

But no matter what, this is very profitable.

This made Lin Yuan doubt his career to some extent. "Xiao Liu, do you think I am really suitable for opening a restaurant?"

"Ah? Brother Yuan, you can't close the business. If you do, won't we all be unemployed? Although the store doesn't have five social insurances and one housing fund, it's much better than those companies!"

Liu Qingqing was originally dissing Wang Chaling in her heart.

After getting the diary, this kid actually went away by himself and never thought of sharing it with them. His character is really questionable.

They all have no spirit of sharing. The four of them have one or two notebooks in their hands, so they can’t have fun at that time!
When she gets off work, she still has to find an opportunity to work with the other three to get the contents of the diary in Wang Chaling's hands and see if there is any news about the "store manager". This is her top priority.

But when she turned around, she heard Lin Yuan having self-doubt, which scared Liu Qingqing, and she hurriedly tried to persuade him.

Lin Yuan was moved at first, but when he heard about the five social insurances and one housing fund, all his feelings vanished. He said solemnly, "You're right. I'll have to ask Lao Cao some time to see how to pay for the five social insurances and one housing fund. I don't want someone to sue me for illegal employment in the end."

what?
When Liu Qingqing heard this, she knew the "store manager" was angry, and quickly explained: "Brother Yuan, you misunderstood. I meant to compare it with the past. Society is too chaotic now, and there is no need to pay any five insurances and one housing fund. On the contrary, as long as you have a job and a stable income, that is the greatest help to us."

She didn't want the "store manager" to hate her.

Besides, this Peace Hotel is not an ordinary hotel. It does not even need to register for business. Who would dare to ask the "store manager" for five social insurances and one housing fund?
And she didn't exaggerate at all.

Look at Guo Fan, look at Chen Qiaoyang, look at those people at the headquarters, all of which show how in-demand positions are at the Peace Hotel.

If she really offended the "store manager", let alone being the boss's wife, it would be hard to say whether she could keep her current position.

"You are still too young. Why don't you let me do it? I guarantee that within three days at the latest, he will fall in love with our cheongsam!" Zhang Youhong's voice sounded in his mind.

"you shut up!"

Liu Qingqing yelled back angrily, "Don't think that I can't bear to part with you just because you are of some use to me. If you suddenly jump out like this and say something nonsense, I will definitely go to the store manager and separate you! Logically speaking, it should be a good thing to have your own body, but you are so resistant, there must be some other reason. I won't go into it, but you have to be honest, understand?"

Zhang Youhong's voice was still lazy, without any threat. "I know, are girls nowadays so irritable? According to my experience, men like the manager like the kind of gentle and beautiful girl who can bring him enough emotional value and has business talent to help him develop the Peace Hotel. You barely have the latter, but you are still a little short of the former. If you don't want me to help, why don't you learn from me? It can improve your temperament."

Liu Qingqing couldn't help but feel moved.

Although she hated the remnant soul named Zhang Youhong hiding in her body, she had to admit that from her every move, it could be seen that this Zhang Youhong was indeed a lady from a noble family during the Republic of China period.

That temperament and those movements are something that few people in this era can imitate. It is truly classical and elegant, and even she, a woman, was moved by it.

So, how about...

No, no!

She suddenly came back to her senses and said viciously, "Don't try to seduce me here. You weren't very old when you died. Have you ever been in a relationship? Can you tell what type the store manager likes? Or are you so narcissistic that you think all men in the world like you?"

Have you ever been in love?

In her mind, Zhang Youhong fell into silence.

In the team she and her brother were in, she was indeed the first one to die. Even among that group of people, there were a few people, including her brother, who are now over a hundred years old and are still alive and well.

Although he is about to die, he is still alive and well.

How old was she when she died?

For women, age is a secret that cannot be told to others. No matter who asks, she is 18 years old and will always be 18 years old.

That means she was only 18 when she died... well, exactly 18 years old!
Although she had experienced many supernatural events at that time, some of which she had experienced since childhood, she had never been in a love relationship.

In other words, even though I’ve been dead for a hundred years, I’m still a chick?
Liu Qingqing didn't hear Zhang Youhong's voice again. She knew that she had guessed right. She wanted to laugh but was speechless at the same time.

I thought that the remnant soul that had sneaked into my mind through supernatural powers was an old monster from the Republic of China period. It turned out that this old monster had never even had a relationship and was even autistic because of this kind of thing?

For a moment, she actually had an urge to comfort the other person.

"No, no! This Zhang Youhong must still be trying to seduce me. This kind of terrifying old monster who can plan for a hundred years and revive his consciousness must not be taken lightly!"

Liu Qingqing thought so, and Zhang Youhong also had some thoughts that shouldn't belong to her: "Perhaps, I really should help Liu Qingqing. Have an ordinary love affair, but in the end, it can be connected with the 'God'? In this way, there is love and benefits, which is not bad."

Although she had this thought, Zhang Youhong did not speak out immediately, because she knew very well that Liu Qingqing was too wary of her and would never listen to her.

"I still have to find an opportunity to show my value."

And this opportunity to demonstrate her value naturally made the "store manager" feel a little more intimate with her, or even... ambiguous!

Lin Yuan had no idea that he had been targeted by a lady from a prominent family during the Republic of China era. He was still thinking about what Liu Qingqing had just said.

He naturally knew that the world was in chaos.

However, he was still unsure whether he had to pay five insurances and one housing fund when opening a store and recruiting employees, so he could only call Cao Yanhua to ask. Cao Yanhua did not hesitate and immediately gave a negative answer. At the same time, with the advice of the think tank behind him who was on call 24 hours a day, he gave a corresponding explanation that could once again reshape the worldview of the "store manager":
"Boss Lin, you know that the world is in such a mess right now. Although it's not the zombie apocalypse in movies and TV shows, it's not much different. Wild beasts are rampant, monsters are at the top of the food chain, and there are evil scientists who no longer consider themselves human and are fanning the flames behind the scenes. Ordinary people's lives are in dire straits. In many places, people can't even afford to eat, let alone live, study, and work normally."

When saying this, Cao Yanhua specially asked people to retrieve satellite footage from overseas, especially from those places that had been destroyed by S-level supernatural events.

These places have become paradises for evil spirits. Only one in ten humans are left. Even if there are any, they can only hide in dark corners, barely surviving and leading a very painful life.

Although the satellite signals cannot be seen clearly in some places due to the presence of terrifying evil spirits, it is enough.

This is also something that can't be helped.

The situation in the country is relatively stable. Although supernatural events occur frequently, they are still within the controllable range. Especially the appearance of the "store manager" and the Peace Hotel, which have given everyone new hope.

In addition, Lu Zhiwen restarted the supernatural bus and brought many evil spirits from reality to supernatural places, making the situation in the country more and more stable.

The order is still there, and even many people are not aware of the situation of the supernatural resurrection, thinking that they are just some scary urban legends.

If we look at the situation in China, Cao Yanhua really cannot express the sadness and even despair he feels when facing the end of the world.

When facing the "store manager", especially when they want to show the "store manager" a worldview they have imagined, they naturally cannot reveal the slightest flaw.

"So, Boss Lin, you can provide some jobs and help some people have a stable life. This is a great deed. As for the five social insurances and one housing fund, they are naturally special matters in special times."

After hearing this, Lin Yuan suddenly understood. At the same time, he looked at Liu Qingqing and the others with a hint of pity in his eyes. "So that's how it is. I understand now."

Just as he was about to hang up the phone, he suddenly remembered something, "Lao Cao, I'm planning to open a branch store recently. Although there aren't many positions, it can help a few people. Please recommend one when you see fit."

"Really?" Cao Yanhua asked in surprise.

Lin Yuan was a little surprised. "Your mood...is it changing too quickly?"

He had such a compassionate attitude just now, but in the blink of an eye he seemed to be so happy that he wanted to jump for joy?

Schizophrenia?
Cao Yanhua quickly restrained his emotions and smiled bitterly: "Boss Lin, you don't know that the number of unemployed people is high now. If we have the support of Boss Lin, we will have less pressure."

Lin Yuan's mouth twitched. "Old Cao, don't put me on a pedestal. I only have a few positions in a branch store. Do you really think I can create tens of millions of jobs for you? Also, after we open a branch store in Dahai City, it will take some time before we open other branches. Forget it."

After that, he hung up the phone and turned to Liu Qingqing and said, "Your voice is nice. If someone calls to complain in the future, just give a formal answer: Sorry, the number you dial is out of service. Do you understand?"

But this is a landline!

Liu Qingqing blinked, but still nodded and said, "I see, Brother Yuan. But Brother Yuan, I thought you were doing charity just now, giving away all the quotas for the branch."
