The Legend of Tokyo Taoist

Chapter 160 Competition (10)

"cheers!"

The glasses of beer and cola collided, splashing a little. The air-conditioned office was filled with the aroma of spicy food. The coffee table in the living room was filled with all kinds of processed ingredients. The pot on the induction cooker was boiling with red oil. Just smelling it made people salivate and their appetites grow.

Qian Xiaoyi and Inuyama Heita sat at the table and kept putting ingredients into the pot. They didn't bother to talk, but ate with their stomachs wide open. Even Ajian and the fox had a share. The incense burner on the altar was filled with boiled ingredients. With the ritual performed by Qian Xiaoyi, even in their spirit form, they could taste the food in reality without having to possess someone else.

"So spicy! So delicious!" Ajian breathed out, sat in front of the incense, and tasted the delicious food with the fox, and couldn't stop eating.

After eating the hotpot and drinking a few gulps of beer, Qian Xiaoyi let out a long sigh of relief. He felt great. He had specially gone to Chinatown to buy the base and ingredients from his fellow villager, and came back to prepare this meal to celebrate their victory in the first competition.

But they didn't get too carried away and popped champagne at halftime. There was no reason to celebrate after winning the first competition. The main reason was that they won the commission, and the commission fee was 600,000 yen. Half of the down payment was paid to them, and the balance would be paid after they were sure that there was no problem with the house.

It's not a lot, but this is the largest single commission order since Qian Xiaoyi opened his business. It really gave a shot in the arm to the two of them who were in average financial condition, so naturally they had to celebrate.

Inuyama Heita's mouth was swollen from eating the authentic hotpot, but he never stopped using his chopsticks. He picked up the beef and put it into the pot, dipping it for a few seconds, rolled it in the dipping saucer and put it into his mouth. After swallowing it whole, he immediately took a sip of ice cola to relieve the spiciness. He did it all in one go.

For him, a local, this red oil hotpot is still a little too spicy. The Japanese's ability to tolerate spicy food is comparable to that of the Cantonese. He can only enjoy the deliciousness with both pain and happiness.

After a while, Inuyama Heita's stomach was full of carbonated drinks. He burped, put down his chopsticks and planned to take a break and eat again later. He fanned his swollen lips with his hands and said, "It's so spicy... Brother Yi, it would be great if the next commission would also have this much money."

He had made a great effort in this commission and naturally received a 20% commission, so he was already looking forward to the next commission.

"Don't be so confident. Not every commission can be solved so neatly." Qian Xiaoyi fished out the cooked potatoes from the pot and said, "But you are right. That old man Ashiya is indeed a respected senior in the local circle. He just let a few scraps slip away, so that poor guys like us can have a good meal..."

He recalled the scene at that time. Ashiya Yoshisuke said to him apologetically on the phone, "The other party is too stingy. The offer for this order is too little. If this commission was not really rare and suitable for competition, he would not accept the other party's conditions."

Qian Xiaoyi naturally took advantage of the situation and said a few pretentious words like "I don't mind the money, just consider it as a warm-up" which showed his mastery. In fact, he felt jealous inside, because the several commissions he had accepted with great effort before were not to the people's liking.

However, Ashiya Yoshisuke then revealed a little bit that the fee for the next commission would be a "normal" fee, about one million yen. Although Qian Xiaoyi didn't say it, he was determined to win it in his heart.

What Qian Xiaoyi didn't know was that in the circle of exorcists in Tokyo, the news of their competition had already spread. Any exorcist who was slightly knowledgeable had basically heard about it from their friends. Qian Xiaoyi instantly became hot news in the industry, and everyone would chat about him whenever they had time, discussing this strange creature that had crossed the ocean.

One day after the first round ended, Yoshisuke Ashiya took out his mobile phone and sent a message to his acquaintances. Those who could enter this group were basically exorcists recognized by him.

Ashiya Yoshisuke: [The first round is over, so what do you think of that Qian brother? ]

Praise the Lord: [Sounds like he should be a very strong person. 】

Pantyhose World No. 1: [Huh? What nonsense are you talking about, Father? What can you tell from this? It was a complete crushing defeat, right? With the level of Ghost Vine, it was a miracle that he didn't die in that room.] Priestess: [I say, can't you just change that disgusting name? Do you still want to be kicked out?]

Pantyhose No. 1 in the World: [Shut up, old woman! ]

[The best pantyhose in the world] has been removed from the "Yellow Spring House" group chat by the administrator.

Priestess: [Old man, don't invite that pervert in again. ]

Ashiya Yoshisuke: [Haha, young people are really energetic... So, let's get back to the topic just now, what do you think? ]

Curse: [Haha, what the guy who was kicked out said is not wrong. Apart from the Feng Shui knowledge he showed at the beginning, the true ability of the Chinese man cannot be seen at all. Gui Teng is still too weak. He can't even make the other party take a serious action. Although it is rude to say this to a senior, he can only do odd jobs. ]

Liuliyuan: [Mr. Gui Teng would probably feel embarrassed after hearing this, right? If that's the case, is there any need for a second round? The difference in level between the two sides is too great.]

Ashiya Yoshisuke: [There are some. I think that in the first round, Qian Jun took advantage of his knowledge of Feng Shui and saw through the details at a glance. This was my oversight. Otherwise, ordinary exorcists would not be able to see through it from the beginning. In the second round, it is a situation where Gui Teng is good at, and maybe he can make a comeback. ]

Curse: [What is the request? Can you tell me? ]

Ashiya Yoshisuke: [Keep it secret for now. 】

Curse: [The old man is keeping us in suspense again~ But the old man has so much confidence in the ghost vine, but he himself does not have it. ]

Ashiya Yoshisuke: [How do you say that? ]

Curse: [I heard that guy has suffered a great blow and has started drinking heavily. He reeks of alcohol. I think he has realized the gap and has already admitted defeat in his heart. Old man, your calculations have failed.]

Ashiya Yoshisuke: [It turns out to be like this... It seems that this competition has dealt a heavy blow to him. But it is also true that he was saved twice by his opponent, who is still a young man. I can probably understand his feelings. It seems that the competition can only be left like this. What a pity. ]

Zhu: [Forget it? How can this be? We can't let this good show end like this. How about this, I'll go find him and give him a little help. This shouldn't be against the rules, right? ]

Ashiya Kichisuke: [Don't go too far, Hiruda. ]

Curse: [I know :)]
