On the plate was a piece of liver covered with brown jelly.

The waiter who was changing Zhou Yan's tableware spoke up.

"Guest, this is the liver of a monkfish. Our chef simmered it in chicken broth, bone broth, and other meat broths, and then added a little vinegar jelly to cut through the richness."

Zhou Yan used chopsticks to pick up a piece of fish liver and put it in his mouth.

The fish liver has a delicate texture and becomes more fragrant the more you chew it. The vinegar jelly has a subtle sour taste, making it a refined and mild meal. However, it's not as satisfying as boiled pork.

"Goo-ooh..."

Su Xiaowan asked in confusion as she chewed on fish liver.

"It's not spicy or numbing, and it doesn't taste as good as the grilled meat from a barbecue stall."

The waiter next to her immediately looked at Su Xiaowan with a "where did this country bumpkin come from?" look, but the look was fleeting, and the waiter chuckled awkwardly.

"Perhaps our cooking style doesn't suit Miss's taste."

Two more waiters came in carrying trays. They took away Zhou Yan's finished plate and brought him a new one. Inside was sliced ​​beef with cabbage, and caviar on top of the beef.

The waiter explained.

"The beef used on the outside of this dish is C9 beef, the highest grade in our country. The bok choy inside is pure, natural, and pollution-free bok choy from Dadong City. The caviar is made from the extremely rare roe of the European sturgeon, and its price is comparable to that of gold..."

While Zhou Yan was still listening to the waiter's boasting, Su Xiaowan couldn't hold back any longer. She picked up her chopsticks, put them in her mouth, chewed a few times, and then spat them out, saying with disgust.

"These are all so fishy."

The waiter's face stiffened. Zhou Yan put the beef and bok choy into his mouth, chewed a few times, and thought, well, the caviar did have a slightly fishy taste, but that fishy taste was enhanced by the seafood flavor, making it quite sensual to eat.

Su Xiaowan probably doesn't like this kind of seafood flavor.

Su Xiaowan looked at Zhou Yan in surprise.

"Brother, don't you think it tastes bad?"

Zhou Yan shook his head.

"Once you've tasted blood clams, you'll know that the flavor isn't just fishy, ​​it's sexy."

When Zhou Yan first tasted blood clams, he was amazed at how such fresh shellfish could exist in the world. During the Chinese New Year, none of his relatives ate blood clams, but Zhou Yan ate a whole plate of them all by himself.

The waiter's expression softened, and he involuntarily spoke with a hint of sarcasm that was hard to decipher.

"You understand, sir."

Zhou Yan's heart sank slightly. This guy was indirectly saying that his little fox was ignorant and didn't know what was good for her. Of course, Zhou Yan could understand that the little fox had already embarrassed the waiter twice, and the waiter was full of resentment, but we had paid to eat here.

The diners paid a lot of money just to hear you mock my family?

Zhou Yan smiled at the waiter next to him.

"Excuse me, I prefer to eat in peace and quiet. Why don't you leave first, miss? I'll finish my meal quietly and then leave."

"Eh... a guest..."

Zhou Yan said firmly.

"I like quiet. I feel awkward when someone stands next to me."

The waiter smiled wryly.

"understood."

The waiter left the private room, and a little while later, a new waiter came in carrying a tray. Su Xiaowan looked at the new tray in front of her with a troubled expression.

"Zhou Yan said from the side."

"If you don't like it, don't eat it. I'll take you to get some barbecue later."

"Yes, my brother is the best to me."

Su Xiaowan quickly transformed back into a little fox and jumped onto Zhou Yan's lap.

Zhou Yan patted Su Xiaowan's head, and the waiter next to him opened the plate again, this time it was a steamed fish belly.

"Oh..."

A soft, seductive moan came from the doorway of the private room.

Zhou Yan looked towards the door. Standing there was a mature woman with a curvaceous figure, wearing a hat, mask, and sunglasses. Zhou Yan opened the woman's profile.

Name: Jiang Wanqing.

Jiang Wanqing entered the private room, taking off her hat, sunglasses, and mask as she came in.

When the woman arrived at Zhou Yan's table, she had completely exposed her face to him.

"You happen to need someone here, little brother. How about I keep you company for a meal?"

The expressions of the two waiters serving the dishes changed, and one of them frowned.

“Our restaurant has been booked out today, miss. I don’t think you want to put us in a difficult position.”

This means that if Jiang Wanqing doesn't run quickly, they'll call security to arrest her.

Jiang Wanqing just stared straight at Zhou Yan, her red lips parting slightly.

"I'm already a shoo-in for the House of Commons."

Zhou Yan let out a low groan.

In the four-school competition, as long as someone is capable and willing to suppress the awakened individuals in turbulent states, the federal government will easily grant them a seat in Congress.

Of course, to ensure that these newly joined members of Congress do not take advantage of others without doing any work, Zhou Yan had just learned that the federal government conducts assessments every six months, and those who fail the assessments are disqualified from their membership in Congress.

"sit……"

Zhou Yan reached out to the seat next to him.

Jiang Wanqing walked to Zhou Yan's side with satisfaction and sat down.

Zhou Yan said to the waiter.

"It's nothing, just a friend of mine."

The waiters nodded to each other and left.

Zhou Yan picked up a piece of steamed fish belly with his chopsticks, took a bite, ate it, and then said.

"Is it because of my senior classmates and your future matches?"

After seeing Jiang Wanqing's name, Zhou Yan began to use his omniscience to analyze Jiang Wanqing's information.

After reviewing various information, Zhou Yan discovered that in the next three four-school competitions, two of Jiang Wanqing's opponents would be students from Zhuque Academy.

Jiang Wanqing, picking up the fish belly with her chopsticks, asked in surprise.

"You seem to care about the four-school competition; you even know so much about the schedule."

Zhou Yan chuckled inwardly. "I don't care, but if I wanted to, I could find out whatever I wanted. Damn it, Bai Ze truly lives up to his reputation as a combination of CIA and FBI; he knows all this dirty stuff the moment he opens and closes his eyes."

"Since you know the rules of the four-school competition, you also know that I am already a pre-selected Member of Parliament. However, Parliament will see what place I can get in the competition before considering how much resources to allocate, right?"

Zhou Yan nodded; this aligned with his own thoughts.

These newly joined members of Congress are, to put it nicely, a way for the government to recruit talent; to put it bluntly, they are recruiting a few henchmen. These henchmen will then use the resources and the "justification" to go to different states to suppress unrest, gather disaster victims, and become the core of a temporary government.

But how do you allocate resources to thugs who are either close to you or have different abilities?

According to Jiang Wanqing, resources are allocated based on rankings, which is why Jiang Wanqing came to me hoping to use my connections to get the senior students at Suzaku Academy to go easy on me, so that I could get a higher ranking and more resources.

Otherwise, Jiang Wanqing would already be a pre-selected member of the House of Representatives, so why would she need to come here seeking a way in?

Jiang Wanqing put the last piece of fish into her mouth and said as she chewed.

“Mr. Zhou, you have always lived in the Vermilion Bird Academy, so you may not know that in Qingjiang Prefecture, which I will be going to later, there are more than 30 million people who are still in a state of anarchy. The local police, army, and various government departments have completely failed.”

Jiang Wanqing used her chopsticks to pick up a side dish from the steamed fish belly, a small white radish carved into a flower shape.

"At least 80% of them would never even dream of eating a radish..."

Zhou Yan found joy in it.

"So you're trying to play the victim and beg me for help?"

If Jiang Wanqing hadn't been one of the system hosts designated by Little Yama, and if she hadn't been quite clever, Zhou Yan would have kicked her out long ago.

You should know that the task Little Yama gave this woman was only rewarded for completion, with no consequences for failure. It was like, "Do it if you want, or don't."

But this woman directly sent herself to the Mountain Moving Ape, poisoned the Mountain Moving Ape, and then the mission was successful.

This person is capable, although their methods may seem vulgar, they are not incapable of being disciplined.

"Of course, that's not all."

Jiang Wanqing winked at Zhou Yan, her eyes filled with hidden emotions. The perfume, with its added alcohol that made the fragrance diffuse faster, combined with the deep cleavage of her neckline, exuded a mature and alluring charm that a young girl could never possess.

Zhou Yan mentally gave a thumbs-up.

She is a mature and alluring woman who is very good at leveraging her strengths.

"Mr. Zhou, do you know about a large pharmaceutical company in Qingjiang Prefecture?"

Zhou Yan didn't know what Jiang Wanqing had eaten, but when she blew her breath over, it carried an indescribable fragrance. The fragrance hit Zhou Yan's face, making his heart race.

Zhou Yan stared at Jiang Wanqing's mouth.

The omniscient ability is revealed to be "ambergris," the effect of which is to stimulate sexual desire.

Zhou Yan: "..."

No, even though I'm young, you don't think I'd fall for an older woman just because she flirts with me casually, do you?

Zhou Yan said expressionlessly.

"I know, it's Anya Medical Equipment Co., Ltd., right?"

Jiang Wanqing nodded.

"Yes, half of the executives and senior researchers of this medical company were rescued during the turmoil. They are all in Zhongzhou City now, raising money to return to Qingjiang Prefecture. Several board members are even willing to give up their own shares."

Zhou Yan glanced at Omniscient and then laughed.

"Did those vampires push you too hard?"

To reiterate, the Eastern United States lacks a nationwide consensus on unification. States are like neighbors; when some states suffer disasters, others can gloat. When the federal government is forced to resign, other states can still watch and stir up trouble.

Therefore, these capitalists from other states who fled to Zhongzhou City were essentially like deposed monarchs. Although the federal government of Zhongzhou City would provide them with some resources to keep them from starving out of consideration for being citizens of the same country, the capitalists from other states in Zhongzhou City were not as principled as the federal government.

Zhou Yan used his All-Seeing Eye and Omniscience to investigate and found that the capitalists who had fled from other states were having their assets and patents constantly swallowed up by the local native capitalists. As a capitalist country, the Eastern Xia United States naturally wouldn't care too much about these messy capital mergers. Some officials even stood up and said, "Don't eat it all up, leave some for our government."

It's true that people are cheap when they leave their hometowns; capitalists from other states who have lost their base are truly like fallen phoenixes.

Jiang Wanqing echoed.

"Yes, I have already contacted several capitalists in Qingjiang Prefecture. They have hired foreign mercenaries and raised military equipment and rations from the federal government. They are just waiting for me to lead the federal government's army to Qingjiang Prefecture to wipe out those rioters."

“Mr. Zhou, as long as you are willing to contribute, the board of directors of Anya Medical Devices is willing to give you 7% of the shares.”

"Not only that."

Jiang Wanqing tried her best to smile in a way that would make the boy in front of her swoon. She had dated more than twenty boyfriends in her life, and Zhou Yan, a virgin, should be easy to win over.

How could those little guys from Suzaku Academy, who have no butts and no breasts, possibly compare to her, this voluptuous and alluring mature woman?

"Once I rebuild the state government in Qingjiang Prefecture, I can give you two streets outside the state government as your private property, Mr. Zhou. Those two streets were incredibly valuable in the past!"

Zhou Yan clapped.

Sure, this woman has the air of an ancient warlord. What is that warlord air? It's that she starts making empty promises before she even gets what she wants.

The entire Qingjiang Prefecture is still in turmoil, and you're still in Zhongzhou City, yet you're already thinking about how to divide the spoils later.

Moreover, this wasn't just said to Zhou Yan. Zhou Yan saw through his omniscience that Jiang Wanqing had already allocated more than thirty streets outside the Qingjiang Prefecture government building to the participants of the Four Schools Competition and some members of Congress as capital for exchanging benefits.

Bai Ze was one of the later collaborators Jiang Wanqing sought out.

Jiang Wanqing licked her lips, somewhat puzzled. Was it because her clothes were too conservative today, or because she hadn't worn stockings? Why hadn't Zhou Yan's face shown the excitement and heavy breathing she had hoped for?

“Mr. Zhou, our cooperation will only bring us benefits.”
