Life is tough, so Honglong resorts to performing?

Chapter 65 Warm-up and Preparation

"Hey, Mr. Chef."

Loren descended from his flight spell and greeted the chef with a smile.

Then he saw Morris grinning to the side.

"What are you doing here?"

Loren's initially happy mood suddenly soured.

As he walked along, the park was almost entirely filled with promotional materials for him.

The key point is that these things weren't there when he left yesterday!

That old bastard's got some tricks up his sleeve; otherwise, why would he be blocking my way here?
"As the head of the entire zoo, it is reasonable for me to take on some minor management responsibilities for our future zoo stars and key figures in the pilot program."

Morris smiled and looked at the little red dragon. After talking to the old druid Aaron, he knew all too well the creature's temperament and tail.

How do you plan to manage it?

Loren spoke up, and as long as the other party didn't go too far, he decided to agree.

"As for flying, I can't say anything to you, after all, that's your dragon race's talent. But don't be as perfunctory about lunch as you were yesterday, okay?"

"Let's do a little performance. There are quite a lot of people here today, so maybe we can sell some merchandise. We can pay you in cash."

Morris was tempted by the fact that the little red dragon was poor, which was one of the key factors he had grasped. Moreover, the little guy was very interested in making money, but he preferred quick profits and development.

This is something he also learned from Aaron.

"A feeding show? Sure. What kind of meat are we having today? What did the chef make for breakfast?"

"It's just a simple roasted lamb. It'll save you from not wanting to eat lunch after a good breakfast and not being enthusiastic about the performance. I also have a spice packet here that you can use later."

Morris answered on behalf of the cook, clearly having noticed Loren's temper the day before.

Loren got a little angry when he heard this. He had only just experienced part of Giovanni's cooking skills, and it was all gone just like that?
You are disrespecting a chef's hands and wasting a chef's talent. In the world of MasterChef, someone like you would be killed off as a villain!

Loren was somewhat resentful when he heard the other person continue speaking.
“I’ve discussed it with Giovanni. We’ll give him a raise, hire two more apprentices, and give you a nice extra dinner to satisfy the bond between you diners and chefs.”

"Yes, you can take it away as a late-night snack."

Morris added calmly.

I told you earlier.

Upon hearing this, the little red dragon immediately went from cloudy to sunny.

Another meal to make up for it!
Loren's sudden change of expression left Maurice somewhat amused and exasperated.

He still remembers when he first met the other person, the little guy was aggressive and set traps everywhere, constantly attacking until his psychological defenses were broken.

At that time, he was still marveling at how formidable the younger generation was.

So, as soon as the money arrived, you immediately showed your joy or anger on your face, right?
But this is for the best. According to his casual conversation with the druids about the habits of living beings, this precisely shows that the little guy has adapted to the environment, let down his guard, and revealed his true nature.

This shows that the Emerald Leaf Rare Animal Park is a place where even a cunning red dragon could feel comfortable and at ease, truly worthy of being the place where he dreamed of being placed and embarking on his journey.

"In that case, let's eat first and chat while we eat. Are there any other activities planned for today?"

As Loren spoke, he reached out to take out his roasted mutton. The freshly roasted mutton was steaming hot, but the temperature was just right for the red dragon.

Yes, there are.

Morris held a bowl of vegetable porridge, eating it while chatting with Loren.

"Around noon, we invited a female celebrity from Magic Crystal Network. Well, you can fly low and scare her a bit; it's part of the performance and generating buzz."

Morris explained, while Loren's eye twitched. "You guys have evolved pretty fast, you've even learned how to generate buzz."

Driven by self-interest, do the thoughts and behaviors of intelligent species tend to converge?
Loren's smile grew even brighter.

Since they've paid for it and the other side wants attention, this is clearly a great opportunity to have fun and gain fame.

How can I recognize her?

Loren asked the question, but Morris was prepared for it.

"That's the one wearing the red beret, with people around him holding professional recording equipment."

"Okay, no problem."

Loren readily agreed, then, holding the unfinished roasted lamb and the spices Morris had prepared for him, prepared to return to the Heart of Lava.

"Don't go yet. Let Giovanni teach you how to cook meat to make it taste good, so you won't be upset if you don't eat well at noon."

So Loren turned back, listening to Giovanni's instructions while tearing the mutton, bone and all, into his mouth, chewing and eating it.

Giovanni only ended his culinary instruction after Loren had completely finished the sheep.

It must be said that this was an eye-opening experience for Loren, who realized that there were so many unique spices available in the world of Ellen.

Indeed, no matter what world you live in, people's pursuit of delicious food will never change.

Well, Great Britain in my past life might have been an exception, but didn't they also have excellent French cuisine?

Indeed, even cannibals can utilize and recreate spices to create delicious mushroom dishes to feed their families, so it's not surprising.

Don't underestimate the heroes of the world.

Loren patted his belly, then spread his wings and took flight with satisfaction, still clutching the spice packet tightly in his claws.

The wind flowed comfortably through his scales as Loren flew, pondering his midday "performance."

Since they're internet celebrities, the effect has to be substantial.

Well, he wanted to investigate which hype tactics and gimmicks those devils had already used in their brokerage firms, in order to prevent himself from being a plagiarist who had outdated his methods and was seen through and ridiculed for being old-fashioned.

It's not easy to survive in another world either.

Those damned devils, why are they so cunning and manipulative, why are they involved in the entertainment industry!
Loren muttered to himself, he really didn't have a good impression of these lawful evil guys.

Many federal laws and regulations were created by these bastards exploiting loopholes.

If the demons' childhood hadn't been classified as non-childhood, and the protection law for underage immortals hadn't excluded them, Loren's life would be more than twice as difficult now!
"Forget it, let's talk about it when we meet. What if she loses her temper before I even have a chance to scare her? That would be a disaster."

Having met many unconventional individuals, Loren decided to stop thinking about female internet celebrities.

Making assumptions about others before meeting them will only lead to mistakes in responding.

Loren returned to the heart of the lava. After swallowing and storing the spice packet given to him by Morris, he once again found a spot on the head of the Frostfire King, closed his eyes, and entered a deep meditation mode.

Regardless of the future, regardless of what happens next, the effort and pursuit of power in this moment must be completed. As for the future, we'll deal with that later.

　Hmm, a lot of readers have come in suspecting that I'm the reincarnation of Old Deng or an extraterrestrial demon. I feel like I'm suffering from quite a few obvious newbie symptoms.

　　Let me mention here that this is my first book to be signed with Dianping. I've come up with several ideas over the past two years, and this is my first time getting a contract. I was even scouted out by another company, so I'd like to thank my editor, Ju Zi.

　　So he's not some reincarnation of Old Deng.

　　As for extraterrestrial demons, well, only those extraterrestrials with achievements can be called demons, right? When I was in college, I wrote on a small website and only got a hundred points. Can that be called a demon? More like an extraterrestrial ant. It's like someone who's been beaten up at work for a few years, suddenly had an epiphany, and can write books. An extraterrestrial ant has arrived with his new book. Well, that's it.
