In Douluo Continent, what is a martial soul? It's like Luckin Coffee.

Chapter 128 Store Manager, you seem to have never paid me a salary.

Is this what human society is like?

As soon as the Crimson King arrived in Mingdu, the auspicious beast curiously looked around.

Although Bai Ran had seen real modern metropolises more than once in her memory, she only understood how shocking they were after seeing them with her own eyes.

No wonder Xiao Bairan didn't want to stay in the Star Dou Great Forest. If the auspicious beast were given a choice, she would also prefer to live in a bustling city.

"Little ancestor, slow down, there are a lot of people here, don't get lost."

I saw the auspicious beast running around and looking at things on the crowded street.

The Red King's tone revealed a hint of helplessness.

Fortunately, his true form is a three-headed red demon mastiff, which has an extremely keen sense of smell.

If other ferocious beasts were used to perform the bodyguard mission, the auspicious beast might actually be lost.

"Huh? A coffee shop."

Ever since Luckin Coffee became popular at the Royal Academy of Sun and Moon.

A coffee craze has recently swept through Mingdu.

This beverage, called coffee, is said to be able to refresh the mind and is an essential item for those who stay up all night.

Feeling sleepy or tired? Grab a cup of coffee!

Of course, these coffee shops located outside have no idea how coffee is made, since there are no coffee beans in the Douluo Continent.

The coffee shop they run sells coffee that is nothing more than black tea made from herbs that can stimulate the nerves. To make it taste a little better, they also add sugar cubes or fruit juice.

For customers who have never tried Luckin Coffee before, their first taste might be quite interesting.

But for customers who have tasted Luckin Coffee, these coffees are nothing more than clumsy imitations of Luckin Coffee.

Therefore, after the auspicious beast spent a few silver soul coins to buy a so-called coconut latte...

Based on his positive impression of Luckin Coffee's coconut latte, Rui Shou took a big gulp.

"Bah bah bah..."

"What is this thing?!"

One sip, and it was bitter and sour, as if I had accidentally drunk some kind of medicine. The coconut milk added inside had absolutely no coconut or milk flavor; to use the words I remember, it tasted like cheap, artificial flavoring.

Auspicious Beast: Geneva, refund my money!
The mythical beast, whose good mood had been ruined by the counterfeit coffee, lost interest in continuing to wander around Mingdu and urged the Crimson King to take her to the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Master Academy.

She couldn't wait to give Xiaobairan a surprise.

Bai Ran: Surprise, are you sure it's not a shock?
……

Inside a Luckin Coffee shop at the Royal Academy of Sun and Moon.

"Manager, I've suddenly realized something."

After a busy morning, Xiao Bing suddenly remembered something very serious.

"Oh, what's the problem?"

It was lunchtime, and Bai Ran took out two lunch boxes from his storage ring.

After suffering the loss of being unable to buy food at the teachers' cafeteria several times, I realized this.

Every morning, Uncle Ye Tian would prepare two meals in advance for Bai Ran to take.

All I can say is that her uncle still dotes on her.

That's why my lunchbox is always filled with Xiaobing's favorite dishes. It just goes to show that love doesn't disappear, it just moves on.

……

"As a shop assistant, it seems like you've never paid me a salary."

She had been by Bai Ran's side for several months.

If it weren't for a few senior students asking, "Little sister, you work so hard, how much does your boss pay you each month?" while I was making lemonade that morning...

Hyotei had never really thought about this kind of question.

"Hmm... Xiao Bing, you know that Mixue Ice Cream Tea Shop isn't doing well right now, so you need to think more about me, the shop manager."

Mixue Ice Cream's daily profit was only a dozen or so gold soul coins, and at most five hundred gold soul coins a month. In the end, it couldn't even afford to pay the rent to the academy.

If selling Mixue Ice Cream doesn't bring any spiritual power, then Bai Ran is truly just doing charity.

It was all out of passion, without the slightest desire for money.

"It seems to be the same..."

Xiao Bing scratched her head and thought for a moment. The prices at Mixue Ice Cream were already barely enough to keep the store running, let alone have any spare money to pay her, the employee.

Besides, the store manager takes care of her food and lodging, so there doesn't seem to be anything she has to spend money on.

(Great, Xiao Bing has successfully eaten the shopkeeper's pancake.)

"No, no, no..."

Xiao Bing immediately shook her head again.

I work so hard every day, even if I don't get paid, I should at least get some extra benefits.

"What's wrong, Xiaobing?"

Bai Ran: Although Mixue Ice Cream is losing money, Luckin Coffee, well… how should I put it, it's endless money, absolutely endless. A thousand gold soul coins a day, that's tens of thousands a month, a million a year. Work for decades, and you'll become the richest person in Douluo Continent.

"Manager, I want to eat two ice creams every day from now on."

Xiao Bing held up two fingers, looking very clever.

"Okay, okay, no problem."

As Bai Ran spoke, she lowered her head and covered her face with her hands to prevent herself from accidentally laughing.

Bai Ran: Silly child, I put the ice cream in the refrigerator, don't you think you'll sneak a bite?
One can only say that these soul beasts are sometimes a bit too naive.

Despite having lived for hundreds of thousands of years, it is more innocent than a teenager.

In fact, this can also be seen from the memories of the auspicious beast.

Of course, this is also closely related to the living environment of the soul beasts.

In the event of an emergency, Hyotei's "super intelligence" will tell her that it's time to use her super power.

Seeing that the store manager agreed so readily, Xiao Bing regretted it for a moment, wondering if she had asked for too little.

I should have said three roots.

One in the morning, one at noon, one in the evening, and if I could have another one as a midnight snack, that would be perfect.

As for the extravagant lifestyle of eating one and then throwing it away?

Xiao Bing didn't even dare to think about it.
