Shi Shuqing didn't want to ruin the relationship and didn't want Lin Jiu to be misled.
Shi Shuqing asked: "What suggestions do you have?"
Si Xu said: "Show your sincerity. If you really want these ingredients, you might as well communicate with him and buy them from him. Don't ask about the history of the ingredients. If he wants to talk, then tell him. If he doesn't want to, don't ask him. Give him respect and freedom, and he will feel your kindness."
Shi Shuqing smiled and said, "I understand."
Shi Shuqing withdrew his ability and concentrated on enjoying the food.
When paying the bill, Shi Shuqing wanted to treat Si Xu to a meal, but was rejected by Si Xu.
Shi Shuqing paid for Lin Jiu's meal and shook hands with him politely before leaving with a very gentle attitude.
Si Xu had something to discuss with Lin Jiu alone, so he asked Jiang Ge to go back first.
Si Xu waited until all the customers in the store left, and helped Lin Jiu clean up the tableware and chairs. Only then could the two of them talk quietly.
Lin Jiu knew that Si Xu might have something to say, "You don't have to persuade me, I know very well what to do to benefit myself the most."
Si Xu shook his head, "I'm not trying to persuade you, I just want to know what you think?"
Lin Jiu was leaning against the bar, standing opposite Si Xu.
"I'm running a business, they can eat anytime, I have no problem with that, they want me to join them, I don't have the time."
All his time was arranged according to the tasks of the Demon Hunting System. Once a mission was completed, he would leave immediately and would not let anything affect his time.
Si Xu understood that Lin Jiu did not object to their eating, but Lin Jiu did not want to join them.
Si Xu said: "If they want to buy the ingredients you have, are you willing to sell them?"
Lin Jiu was reserved about whether the unknown energy they were talking about was the same energy as his family's magic energy. The system said that the instruments on the earth plane could not detect the existence of magic energy, and he believed in the system's judgment.
Lin Jiu did not give a direct answer, but asked: "Do they want this kind of food, or do they want the energy in the food?"
"Energy. Enhanced people rely on this unknown energy to improve their strength. After they consume energy, they must replenish it, otherwise their lives will be in danger.
They used unknown energy radiation to cultivate some vegetables, which contained some unknown energy, but very little. Compared with the ingredients you have here, it is far inferior.
There is no such unknown energy in the world environment. If you want to replenish it, you can only enter the unknown energy radiation area or eat food containing unknown energy. That's why Deputy Captain Shi wants the ingredients here so much."
Lin Jiu was confused and asked, "If they go out, they will consume energy. Do they have to carry the food with them?"
Si Xu thought of the scary cup of energy water, maybe he really carried it with him.
Lin Jiu said: "When seafood goes bad, bacteria will grow, which is fatal."
Si Xu: "They don't understand these."
Lin Jiu did have a whole cage of magic brocade flower dragons in his hands, but the space in his fish pond and refrigerator was limited. No matter how much food he had in the Magic Sea, it would be useless if he couldn't take it with him.
Not to mention the supply of ingredients, the price alone is not cheap. Lian Sixu bought silver fish meat from him at 100,000 per catty. If others wanted to buy it, they would definitely not pay less than this price, otherwise it would be too unfair to Sishen.
Lin Jiu stared at Si Xu for a long time, "Are you a strengthened human?"
"Who knows? I haven't undergone their enhanced training. I just have abilities that are different from ordinary people... Maybe they call people with abilities that are different from ordinary people enhanced people."
People's senses are actually very vague. Unknown energy is a kind of energy, the energy in food is also a kind of energy, and the rt value is just the radiation time of an unknown energy. It is difficult to prove that the unknown energy is the same as the energy in food.
Lin Jiu looked a little strange, "The ability to drag the table?"
Si Xu: “…”
Si Xu smiled: "Maybe we can put some chairs in there."
Lin Jiu subconsciously glanced at the wooden double chair in the house. Si Xu laughed and said, "Do you need me to arrange the tables and chairs for you in the future?"
Lin Jiu: “…”
Lin Jiu: "No, thank you."
For such a big idol, he was afraid of being drowned by the fans' saliva when he had to move the table and put chairs aside.
Lin Jiu was a little worried about his physical condition. "After gaining this ability, do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?"
"Not at all. When I don't use my abilities, I'm just like an ordinary person. Once I use my abilities, I need to replenish them in time, otherwise I'll feel hungry and weak... They said that if I lose a lot of energy, I might die. I don't feel that at the moment. I feel very good."
Lin Jiu didn't think he was a good person. "Did he become like this because he ate my ingredients?"
Si Xu was afraid that Lin Jiu would think too much, "I don't think there is a problem with your ingredients. Your ingredients are very nutritious, and people who eat them know it. The fact that they have become like this may be related to the nutrition of the ingredients, but most of the reasons are still problems with our own genetic potential."
There were many people eating at the Magic Fish Restaurant, but the only ones who really became different were Si Xu and Jiang Ge.
Of course, it is not ruled out that they two eat the most.
Lin Jiu was not comforted by Si Xu and was still very worried about his health.
He called the system in his mind and asked him to help check Si Xu's body.
It takes 2 magic points to check other people's bodies. Do you want to check
Lin Jiu: Testing.
Testing...
Detection failed.
Lin Jiu: What?!
Lin Jiu: Is your system broken
The target person has a special physique and cannot be detected by 2 points of magic value.
Lin Jiu: How many can be tested
It will consume 10 magic points to detect special physique. Do you want to check it
Lin Jiu: …
Lin Jiu: System, I think you are cheating me of my magic value.
The system only provides free services to the host, and will never do business at a loss when it involves others.
Lin Jiu: …
Lin Jiu stared at his idol again and again, wanting to see what was so special about him. Others could be detected with 2 points of magic value, but his idol actually needed 10 points. He was indeed an idol, and the magic value detection was more expensive than others!
Lin Jiu gritted his teeth: Test.
Testing...
Detection target: Si Xu
Age: 28
Current status: Weak
Physical strength: 6
Physical condition: Malignant brain tumor
Life span: Seven months
Physical status: Hidden gene activation
Activation success rate: 7.66%
Mortality rate: 92.34%
Survival Tip: Activate Hidden Genes
Lin Jiu couldn't believe it!
He asked the system to repeat it three times in a row before he believed that he had not heard it wrong. This was indeed Si Xu's examination result!
Lin Jiu's eyes immediately turned red. Is this what he meant by "feeling really good"
"What's wrong?" Si Xu keenly noticed that Lin Jiu was in a bad mood.
Lin Jiu lowered his eyes so as not to let Si Xu see him losing his composure.
"It's okay. It's late. I'm going to close the store." Lin Jiu spoke with a nasal tone, trying to appear calm.
Si Xu didn't say anything, but quietly followed Lin Jiu out and accompanied him out of the dark old street.
Lin Jiu has been communicating with the system in his mind: Can the malignant tumor be removed
Ask for other people's information, 1 magic point per question, do you want to continue
Lin Jiu: Go on.
What threatens life is the recessive gene. Malignant tumor is just a manifestation of the recessive gene. If this is removed, there may be lesions in other organs. It is not recommended for the host to waste efforts.
Lin Jiu: In that case, how do we solve the problem of recessive genes
Judging from the data provided by the system, the success rate of activation is very low. If the hidden gene cannot be activated, there is almost no chance that Si Xu will survive.
Ask for other people's information, 1 magic point per question, do you want to continue
Lin Jiu: …
Lin Jiu: Okay, no need to scold me anymore.
The target person's hidden gene potential is too strong, and the activation success rate is too low (already taking into account magic materials and magic wine). If the host must activate it, gene enhancement potions can be used to increase the activation rate...
Lin Jiu was delighted: I have primary gene enhancement potion!
Please note: Primary gene enhancement potions only have 10% of the enhancement effect. Each person can only use the same level of gene enhancement potion once, and repeated use will be ineffective.
Friendly reminder: Primary gene enhancement potions are not suitable for everyone. Enhancement has risks, so please be aware of this.
Lin Jiu's excitement was instantly poured with a basin of cold water.
Lin Jiu: Si Xu should be able to use primary gene enhancement potion, right
The target person has the genetic potential and can use the potion.
It is recommended that the host first increase the target character's physical strength to 10 to reduce the damage and pain caused to the body during gene enhancement.
Lin Jiu: How to improve physical strength
The host can be fed with magic food and magic wine.
feed…
Lin Jiu missed a step and nearly fell on his face. Fortunately, the people around him were quick to catch him and saved him from being crushed under the vehicle.
"Are you okay?" Si Xu looked at his feet worriedly.
Lin Jiu raised his head and looked at the face that was so close to him, and the tips of his ears instantly felt hot.
Fortunately, both of them wore masks to cover their faces, otherwise Lin Jiu felt that their little hearts might not be able to withstand the impact of their looks at such a close distance.
This road is really broken. If you walk on the dark road, you may fall into a pit.
He stood up obediently, "I'm fine."
Si Xu stared at him for a long while, "The road in the old street is not good, so please walk carefully."
Lin Jiu clicked randomly, not daring to look at his idol anymore.
The driver who was going to pick up Si Xu was already waiting outside the old street.
Lin Jiu said: "Go back first and be careful."
Seeing that he was always distracted, Si Xu was a little worried, "I'll take you to the community to prevent you from falling again."
Lin Jiu's face felt hot. He was not a child and he would not fall while walking.
He pushed the bike forward, Si Xu accompanied him, and the driver drove behind them.
Arriving at the gate of the community, Lin Jiu stopped and asked hesitantly: "Are you going to the store tomorrow?"
"I'll go when I'm free." Tomorrow might be busy, so Si Xu couldn't be sure for the time being.
Lin Jiu said: "How about... I prepare lunch and dinner for you, and you send someone to get them?"
To prepare the magic meal for Si Xu, Lin Jiu must have made it secretly by himself, singing while doing it, which was a bit embarrassing. If others heard his siren song, they would definitely be affected.
Si Xu smiled and said, "You want to break the store rules for me?"
Lin Jiu: “…”
Lin Jiu hurriedly made amends, "You are the highest-level customer in the store, you can get special privileges."
Si Xu stared at him, his smile faded, "If someone's rank is higher than mine, will they be treated like this?"
Lin Jiu's eyes were wandering, and he didn't dare to look at the male god, "This... depends on the specific situation."
Si Xu pursed his lips and said, "I still want to eat in the store."
Not going to the store means not being able to see Lin Jiu.
Lin Jiu thought he might have made a mistake. "You can come to the store anytime. The private room is always reserved for you... High-class customers have such privileges."
Si Xu: “…”
Si Xu: “…Okay.”
Lin Jiu asked carefully, "Are you going to send someone to pick up the food tomorrow?"
Si Xu sighed, "When you are not available, I will send someone to pick up the food."
Lin Jiu finally felt relieved. "The food I prepared for you, you eat it alone, don't share it with others, okay?"
Si Xu paused, thinking that it might not be what he thought, "Can I tell you the reason?"
Lin Jiu thought of a good excuse, "I want to regulate your body, but others might have problems if they eat it."
A loving lunch is indeed a luxury.
"Thank you, I'll remember that." Si Xu thanked him, "In return, I want to fight the lawsuit for you, is that okay?"
Lin Jiu: “???”
Lin Jiu was confused. What lawsuit did he have to fight
Si Xu was helpless. "Have you forgotten about Mi Youyou's slander against you and the Magic Fish Shop? And your neighbors and those paid bloggers online, the fans who blocked your shop door and kicked over your incubator, every one of them must be reported to let them know that the Internet is not a lawless place."
Lin Jiu: “…”
Lin Jiu still remembers the person who said he would compensate him, but he hasn't shown up yet. He doesn't know whether he is trying to raise money or just doesn't have the courage to do it.
Lin Jiu was quite familiar with the racial abilities of the siren. Those who were bewitched by his siren abilities would be loyal to him from now on. If he asked for compensation, he would definitely do so. But for some reason, they haven't paid it back yet.
Lin Jiu only remembered his money, and he almost forgot about other people.
According to Si Xu, this matter lasted only a month, but according to Lin Jiu, it took almost half a year.
Seeing that he didn't say anything, Si Xu thought he didn't want to pursue the matter any further, so he advised: "If you don't pursue it this time, whoever dares to step on you or throw dirty water on you next time, you can't give in to such things."
"I was slandered before, and my legal team sued them and put them in jail. Now that the world is peaceful, no one dares to fabricate facts to slander me. My legal team is very experienced. These people only get paid but have no work to do. They are bored. It is better to find something for them to do. We can't just pay them for nothing."
From the moment it happened, Si Xu had people collect all the evidence, just waiting for Lin Jiu to sign an authorization agreement and hand over the matter to his legal team so that he could start suing them one by one.
Lin Jiu: “…”
No one dares to smear or slander you, isn't it because you are so famous
Lin Jiu does not have a private lawyer, nor does he have a legal team. It is too expensive to hire a lawyer, and it is also very expensive. He does not want to hire a lawyer to sue those who have defamed his small shop, as long as his losses are compensated. Instead, he wants to hire a lawyer to help him terminate the contract if he cannot reach an agreement with "Chuangxing".
If the contract can be terminated peacefully and the penalty is not too high, Lin Jiu can accept it. If the company insists on making things difficult, he doesn't care. He will take out the money he has prepared and use it to fight the lawsuit. No matter how much it costs, he will fight to the end. He will not pay more than he deserves, and he will also ask for back the compensation he has paid before.
If others give him a way out, Lin Jiu is willing to save his face. If they don't even give him a way to survive, Lin Jiu can only completely break off with them.
"I have asked people to gather the evidence. We are just waiting for you to authorize them so that they can start the lawsuit."
Si Xu wanted to help him, but many times, he could not do anything without the consent of Lin Jiu, the person involved.
He could do it without Lin Jiu asking for anything, as did it for him.
At this time, Si Xu proposed to the team of lawyers authorized to him, and suing Mi Youyou and others was just a side job. Si Xu mainly wanted to remind Lin Jiu that he should not allow himself to be slaughtered by "Chuangxing". He could choose to terminate the contract through legal means.
"Thank you. I need a lawyer. I'll pay for the lawyer's fees."
