I’m No Longer Human After Being Blacklisted

Chapter 44

Views:

Lin Jiu left such a big male god aside and scrolled through her phone. Many food bloggers were complaining that seafood was unaffordable. The prices of some frozen seafood had doubled, and the prices of live and precious seafood had increased several times. The price of seafood was not low to begin with, but now even fewer people could afford it. Fortunately, the supply of seafood was also decreasing.

Those who know that there are dangers at sea but still venture out to sea are most likely blinded by money. As long as they can catch it, it's money. There are really not many people who know that the "money" is in the sea and can hold back.

Seeing that Lin Jiu was very excited, Si Xu poured a bucket of cold water on him, "The price of seafood will definitely be regulated, it can't keep rising."

"Even if there is regulation, the price will be higher than before." Lin Jiu did not take his eyes off the phone.

Lin Jiu saw a report that someone caught a lobster weighing 19.8kg, which was bought by a wealthy businessman for 2.88 million yuan.

Lin Jiu was confused. "Are giant lobsters everywhere now?"

"It's true that there are quite a lot." Si Xu occasionally sees similar reports, "In addition to the giant lobsters, the size of other seafood is also getting bigger."

Lin Jiu: “???”

Lin Jiu finally realized that something was wrong, and the words of the Kitchen God System came to his mind at an inopportune time.

The goal of the Kitchen God System is to spread the magic meal to every corner of the Earth...

The Earth plane will be ready soon, and now we will start...

Lin Jiu: “…”

What's going on? Could it be that the Kitchen God System is causing this

Lin Jiu called for the God of Cooking System in his mind, but the God of Cooking System did not come out, but the Demon Hunting System appeared.

Don't slander Xiaochuchu. Intelligent life forms love to destroy me the most. You brought your own death upon yourself, so don't blame our system.

Lin Jiu rolled his eyes and tried to ask: Do you know what happened

There is nothing on Earth that I don't know. If I don't know, then I don't want to know.

Lin Jiu: …

Lin Jiu humbly asked: What's going on

This matter will directly affect the future direction of the Earth plane, and it requires a lot of magic points, which you don't have enough at the moment.

Lin Jiu: …

Lin Jiu logged into Weibo angrily and posted a new update: Opening a store today!

He wants to use the scraps to earn magic points!

As soon as Lin Jiu posted the news about opening a store on Weibo, she refreshed the page and saw hundreds of comments. Many people were asking whether Magic Fish Shop would raise its prices. The prices of seafood outside were skyrocketing right now, so would Magic Fish Shop follow suit and raise its prices

Lin Jiu thought that he didn't need to follow suit and raise the price. The price of the Invisible Fish Blue Devil would not be low. Besides, it was not up to him to decide whether to raise the price or not. He was just a boss without power. The price was determined by the Chef God System. If the Chef God System did not raise the price, and Lin Jiu raised the price privately, the extra money would not be counted in the store's income. What the hell was going on

The phone of the male idol who was left aside rang. Lin Jiu looked over and Si Xu seemed to be very busy.

Si Xu answered, "Well, I know he's the last one."

The call was from Jiang Ge. He saw Lin Jiu's Weibo and knew that Lin Jiu was coming, so he called to tell him.

Hang up the phone.

"Are you going to open a store tomorrow?"

Lin Jiu nodded, "Open."

Si Xu disapproved, "Think about your injury."

"My injury is getting better..." After a pause, Lin Jiu patched it up, "Heal quickly."

"Don't be so stubborn. How can such a serious injury heal in just one day?" Si Xu expressed his disbelief.

Lin Jiu hardly felt any pain now, but the wound was itchy, and he knew it was because it healed too quickly.

Lin Jiu stretched out his legs and pulled up his trouser legs. The bruises, redness and swelling on his calves disappeared, leaving only a piece of glowing skin.

If Si Xu hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he would never have believed that his leg was injured.

Lin Jiu continued to pull it up and removed the bandage in front of Si Xu. When the bandage was completely removed, only one-third of the wound area was exposed, and the healed skin did not leave any scars.

Si Xu: “…”

Si Xu was silent. It seemed as if Lin Jiu was born to create miracles. Nothing that happened to him could be explained by common sense.

Lin Jiu wrapped the bandage again, "Do you believe it now? The wound will be completely healed in a few days. What I need most now is nutrition. Do you want to try it together?"

Lin Jiu was also looking forward to the little blue demon's tentacles.

Looking at such a huge tentacle, Si Xu really didn't know how to start eating it.

Lin Jiu got up and went to the kitchen, washed his hands, washed the knives and tableware, prepared two portions of seasoning soy sauce and Shanlu, brought them into the living room on a plate, gave one to Si Xu and kept one for himself.

Lin Jiu took off his shoes and sat cross-legged on the carpet. "Which part do you want to eat?"

Si Xu, who was so casual about it, also sat on the carpet and said, "It's all right."

Lin Jiu cut off the tail end of the tentacle and processed it on the spot in front of Si Xu. The tip of the knife passed over the tentacle, and the blue skin was lifted up with a flick of the knife. Lin Jiu grabbed the blue skin with one hand and held the knife with the other, and peeled off the skin skillfully and quickly, leaving only the snow-white tentacle meat.

Lin Jiu kept working with his knife, first cutting off the suction cups as big as the mouth of a wine glass, and then began to cut the tentacles, cutting them into thin slices and small triangular pieces that were easy to eat.

Lin Jiu picked up a suction cup with the tip of a knife and placed it on Si Xu's plate. He then rolled up the cut tentacle slices and placed them on the suction cup. He piled a few small triangles on the side and made a small shape in a few simple moves.

"Eat, eat, eat."

Lin Jiu picked up the remaining suction cups and small triangular pieces of thin slices and put them on his plate, picked up the fork, picked up the last piece and put it in his mouth.

The scorched little blue devil tentacles tasted just as good as I imagined, very tender and chewy, needless to say they were delicious.

The second bite, Lin Jiu dipped it in the soy sauce from the Demonic Sea plane, and the taste was different again, richer and stronger than when it was roasted.

The third bite, Lin Jiu dipped the green onion in soy sauce, the flavors overlapped again, the rich fresh, salty and fragrant flavors filled the mouth, the spicy and sweet taste of the green onion better stimulated the deliciousness of the ingredients.

It really is worthy of being a three-star magic material, the taste and texture are both excellent.

Si Xu watched Lin Jiu eat the food in all three ways before he started to taste it. It was delicious, needless to say, as all the food prepared by Lin Jiu was delicious. What surprised Si Xu was that the food was icy and smooth in his mouth, and his stomach immediately felt warm after he swallowed it, which warmed up his whole body and made him feel comfortable all over.

"How is it?" Lin Jiu chewed the tentacle meat in his mouth carefully. The taste was so delicious that it almost filled his mouth.

Si Xu held a knife and fork in his hand and ate the most elegant Western food. "It's very delicious."

"How's the quality?" Lin Jiu asked casually.

Stu paused, wondering, it turns out the quantity of this kind of ingredient is so high

“It feels higher in quantity than silver fish caviar, but lower in quantity than the anthocyanin fruit wine in the nutritious meal you prepared for me.” After eating so many ingredients from the Magic Fish Shop, Si Xu basically ranked them in order of priority.

Lin Jiu nodded, "Yes, Little Blue Demon is currently the most valuable ingredient."

Lin Jiu ate another piece of tentacle meat, "Now I regret that I shouldn't have agreed to sell food to the 'Special Security Department'."

Si Xu: “…”

You regretted it after not selling the ingredients once? The "Special Security Department" must be going crazy.

Lin Jiu: "Wouldn't it be nice to let them come to the store to eat? That's all money, the money earned by the store!... But I didn't care. When they wanted to buy ingredients, I told them I didn't have any, only Huahong Fruit Wine. Huahong Fruit Wine is also part of the store's account, so they can have it."

Si Xu: “…”

Should he leave now

Si Xu considered, "If you are short of money, you can tell me."

Lin Jiu: "I'm not short of money, but the shop is short of money."

Si Xu: “…”

Cong's brain was a little stuck.

Si Xu thought for a moment and said, "Even if they eat in the restaurant, there won't be enough seats in the small restaurant, right?"

Lin Jiu: "Yes, there is not enough room. They can come and eat in batches."

Si Xu felt that the store he bought was very useful. "Have you ever thought about expanding the store?"

"I haven't thought about it."

He hasn't even opened the second and third floors yet, so why expand the store? At most, he can continue to renovate the first floor... Lin Jiu thinks this is really good. His wooden bar can be arranged up to the top, and it is not a problem to seat a circle of people.

Now is not the time to be lazy and idle, you must work hard to make money.

Lin Jiu did what he thought and quickly finished his share of the Blue Demon. He was very full. The Blue Demon was quite large in size, so he didn't need to eat a lot. A small piece would be enough to fill him up. The same went for Si Xu.

"What are your plans for the afternoon?" Lin Jiu didn't think that Si Xu was really free enough to stay at home and take care of him all day.

Si Xu has two meetings to attend in the afternoon, "I need to go to the company."

Lin Jiu quickly got up and said, "Then you go ahead, I'll go to the store to help."

Si Xu: “…”

Si Xu: "Be careful, your injury is not healed yet."

Lin Jiu went to the room to change clothes. "It's okay. It won't interfere with my work."

Si Xu took the knives, forks and plates for both people to the kitchen, washed them and put them in order. He didn't know what to do with the big tentacle. How big a refrigerator would it take to fit such a big tentacle

Lin Jiu came out again, wearing a gray turtleneck sweater, a khaki coat, dark casual pants and high-top Martin boots. Her long black hair was tied up high. She looked clean and refreshing, slim and tall. Her impactful appearance was still eye-catching, and Si Xu could not take his eyes away for a while.

Lin Jiu was putting on black leather gloves. "My injury is not serious. Please go ahead and don't bother me anymore."

Si Xu lowered his eyes and calmed down, "Don't forget to wear a mask."

Lin Jiu felt that he didn't need to wear a mask, as he was not a star.

Si Xu: "It's cold outside."

Lin Jiu: “…”

Well, then just wear it.

‌I found a black mask in the cloakroom and put it on, then walked towards the entrance.

Si Xu: "Cellphone."

Lin Jiu felt his pocket and found his cell phone was not there, so he searched for it everywhere.

Si Xu: "On the lazy couch."

Lin Jiu quickly took his cell phone and walked towards the entrance again.

Si Xu: "Where should the tentacles be placed?"

Lin Jiu: “…”

Lin Jiu wanted to sigh, "How about you go first and I'll clean up?"

Si Xu looked at him, and Lin Jiu looked at him innocently.

Si Xu knew that this might touch upon Lin Jiu's secret, so he did not insist. "I'll wait for you in the car and take you to the store."

Lin Jiu: "No, my home is not far from the store, I can just walk there."

Si Xu: "Is it very poetic to walk alone in the cold wind?"

Lin Jiu: “…”

Lin Jiu: “…Thank you.”

Si Xu opened the door and walked out, glancing over the bunch of cards without picking them up.

Lin Jiu released the super intelligent kitchen, pushed out the robotic arm, cut the tentacles into small pieces, and then moved them into the refrigerator one by one. Finally, he sent the oversized tray to the super intelligent kitchen, cleaned up, and went downstairs.

Si Xu's car was waiting downstairs. Lin Jiu sat in the passenger seat and Si Xu took him to the shop.

The car drove out of the residential area and turned towards the old street. Looking at the flat and spacious road, Lin Jiu suspected that he had taken the wrong road. Moreover, the old buildings on both sides of the road had been renovated. He had only been away for a week, and the entire old street looked brand new.

Lin Jiu looked at Si Xu who was driving in surprise, "The old street was optimized with one click?"

Si Xu raised his lips, "The higher-ups think the old street has great development potential, so they're building roads and houses, and even building a parking lot not far from your shop. You won't have to walk on stilts in the dark when you go out. There are also plans around the old street, and it will become a commercial district in the future."

Lin Jiu: “…”

Si Xu: "Relatively speaking, housing prices have also risen accordingly."

Lin Jiu: “…”

It feels like I missed out on billions.

Si Xu parked the car in front of the store and asked, "Do you regret not listening to me and buying a house?"

Lin Jiu: “… a little bit.”

Si Xu smiled and said, "It's okay, I bought a lot, come to me if you need anything."

Lin Jiu: “…”

No, why did he feel that there were too many details in this sentence

Before Lin Jiu could figure out what was going on, Si Xu asked him another question, "Are you a strengthened person?"

Lin Jiu: “???”

The big eyes are filled with big confusion.

Si Xu said: "The people from the Special Security Department will come to find you. Think about how to respond first. Come on, take care of your wound."

Lin Jiu stood in the cold wind until Si Xu's car left, then he slowly thought that it should be the strange phenomenon exposed by the group that attracted the attention of the "Special Security Department". Even if there was no evidence, they would suspect him.

So the question is, is he a strengthened man

Of course not.

Is he going to wear the skin of an enhanced human

Of course... yes.

It was such a pleasant decision, and he would strengthen people from now on.

Like the male god, he is also a strengthened man.

Lin Jiu opened the door and entered the store and began to clean up his shop.

Boss Lin is a money-making machine. He has to go to work even if the store is in a mess. The bar must be used. Lin Jiu planned it out using the Kitchen God System. The wooden bar can accommodate 8 seats. When most of the people are seated, part of the spacious aisle space will be occupied, which does not affect entry and exit, but visually it is not as "spacious" as before.

In order to make more money, Boss Lin decided to adapt to this change.

That night, Lin Jiu announced the new rules of the Magic Fish Shop on Weibo.

"From now on, Magic Fish Shop will accommodate 6 tables each for lunch and dinner, and the bar counter will accommodate 8 seats each for lunch and dinner. The private rooms on the first floor will be open to the public (tables for 6 people) and will only accommodate regular customers of Magic Fish Shop."

As soon as I posted it on Weibo, a group of people asked if they could make an appointment.

Lin Jiu made a patch, "No reservations, no take-out, only dine-in."

The comment section was filled with wails.

"The system of the Magic Fish Shop means that I have to eat while watching others!"

"I just want to know whether the Magic Fish Shop has increased its prices. I haven't had seafood for a week. As a seafood lover like me, I can't stand it any longer. I have the urge to spend all my money on a big meal every day!"

"Do you feel that every time Boss Lin buys goods, he has to change the system?"

"What I saw was Boss Lin's ambition to make money!"

"Don't misunderstand me above. If Boss Lin really wanted to make money, he wouldn't continue to sell lunch and dinner. Boss Lin is still a Buddhist Boss Lin."

Lin Jiu: “…”

He really wants to make money, but isn't he tired? He is alone, why should he keep working non-stop

Lin Jiu asked the Kitchen God System and confirmed that there would be no price increase, so he came back to apply the patch.

"The Magic Fish Shop currently has no plans to raise prices."

The comment section was full of jubilation, with everyone saying that the black-hearted boss Lin was suddenly not black-hearted anymore, which was a bit strange.

Someone reminded that if you call Boss Lin a black-hearted person, you might end up on the blacklist.

Blacklist is being prepared...

Si Xu was still working overtime when he received a call from Jiang Ge.

"Ah Xu! Are you and Lin Jiu having a falling out?!"

Si Xu's men kept saying, "We won't break up."

For those of them who have ulterior motives, how could they let Lin Jiu fall out? They absolutely could not let that happen.

They had lunch together at Lin Jiu's house.

"Then what's going on between you?! He just posted on Weibo that the private room on the first floor will be open to the public from today and will only accommodate regular customers. Isn't that your exclusive place? If he opens it to the public, where are you going to eat in the future? How can I eat with you for free?!"

Si Xu: “…”

Si Xu: "No, he won't touch the box on the first floor."

"You are my biological brother, you took off his scarf and it's still hanging on it!" Jiang Ge hung up in despair.

Si Xu threw down his pen and clicked on Lin Jiu's Weibo, and sure enough, he saw the news that the private room on the first floor was open to the public.

Si Xu: “…”

Si Xu: “…”

Si Xu: “…”

Si Xu wondered if Lin Xiaojiu, who wanted to make money, had forgotten about him

Even the ingredients for the "Special Security Department" were not wanted, what else did Lin Xiaojiu have to do? Forgetting him was a very possible thing.

Si Xu thought about it again and again, and decided to give Lin Xiaojiu a call to make his presence felt and let him remember that he had such an idol.

The phone rang for a long time before it was connected. Lin Jiu's vague voice came over, "Hello..."

Si Xu was stunned. He looked at the time. It was almost eleven o'clock and Lin Jiu was already asleep. He wanted to hang up, but he also wanted to hear Lin Jiu's voice.

"It's me." Si Xu lowered his voice.

"Si Shen...?" Lin Jiu was a little confused in his sleep, not knowing whether he really heard Si Shen's voice or was dreaming.

Si Xu: “…”

When Lin Jiu was awake, he never called him that.

Without waiting for Si Xu to speak, Lin Jiu spoke again vaguely, "God Si... are you going to celebrate your birthday with your fans this year? I'm also a fan... do you want to celebrate with me..."

Si Xu's heart trembled, and the impulse that he had suppressed revived again, "Lin Jiu..."

"… "

"Lin Xiaojiu?"

"… "

There was only even and gentle breathing on the other end of the phone, and Lin Jiu fell asleep again.

Si Xu: “…”

Si Xu did not hang up the phone. He listened to the shallow breathing on the other end of the phone and suppressed his impulse again.

Lin Jiu slept until he woke up suddenly. He was still a little confused when he got up. He seemed to have dreamed that Si Xu called him last night...

Lin Jiu washed himself up like a sleepwalker. After washing, he became a little more awake and untied the bandage on his leg. The wound was completely healed without any scars left. The treatment agent was very effective.

The next day is the birthday of the God Si, and he wants to find an opportunity to test whether there are any arrangements for the next day. If there are no arrangements, he will make them.

Celebrating God Si’s birthday is something I never dared to dream of before!

Lin Jiu changed his clothes, ate the last piece of blue devil tentacle, took out the ingredients he would need for the day, put them in the insulated box, rode his bike, and set out for the shop.
