Chapter 62 Feeding and asking for directions

"It smells so good!"

“This is so delicious!”

“This one is delicious too!”

“It’s delicious!”

“…”

Dong Chen felt that he probably wouldn't be full today.

Although it is okay to treat a guest as a thank you, it is another matter to make yourself hungry.

“Is it that delicious?”

I can't wait any longer, nor can I be polite anymore. Dong Chen said while picking up a piece of meat and ate it.

"After all, you are from the imperial capital, why do you feel like you have never seen the world?"

Shia, who was having a meal, was asked this question and asked without hesitation, "Have you seen the world related to whether the barbecue is delicious?"

"What is delicious in the imperial capital?"

"You said that," said Dong Chen after Pin Xiya's philosophical words, "It really has nothing to do with whether it is delicious or not!"

"Right," Shia said with her fingers wiping the seasoning on her lips, bent her lips, "If you can say such words, this means that I am from the imperial capital."

"This has nothing to do with it." Dong Chen complained mercilessly next to him, and stuffed a piece of meat into his mouth.

"you--"

"Hmph, I'll be poor at you!"

Dong Chen didn't understand why Xiya had such a good relationship with him so quickly, so he probably was the legendary "Suizhi".

However, Dong Chen does not reject such a local person who can talk about it... especially when he needs to understand this world.

Among the few people he is familiar with now, the Great Elder has a rich experience in dealing with things, but many of his cognitions are from decades ago and are not suitable for himself now.

The main reason is that this world is developing too fast. It was still the "regular different world" model decades ago. Although the protagonist "magic" is missing, the others are still the same.

It has only been a few decades since it has entered the rhythm of the steam era.

Therefore, this situation also made the elder sigh, "The world has changed and it has developed too fast."

And Dazhuang and the others are even more new than him. If they hadn't been with him these days, they might have been cheated of all money long ago and would not have been able to count on them at all.

So far, only the two old gentlemen, Mehaya and Andorf, can be counted on. However, since they are called "old men", they cannot be troubled every day. Dong Chen plans to trouble the two old men only at critical moments.

Moreover, they are not idle every day and are waiting for him to find them. They are very busy.

Now, looking at Assistant Shia who was full of seasonings, she is both the assistant to the principal of a senior college and from the imperial capital of a big city, which should be a good channel for understanding.

And it looks very scam-like.

"That... Assistant Shia, ask you something?"

"What's the matter, you say," Shia said generously with a piece of green vegetable, "I will definitely help you when you treat me to such a delicious food!"

"Okay," Dong Chen asked directly as if Shia was taking big bags, "Do you know how to make money in Blackstone City? I found that I can't do anything for the three thousand dollars."

"Making money? It's so simple!"

When Shia heard this, she picked up a piece of barbecue with chopsticks, "Just open a barbecue restaurant, you will definitely make a big profit!"

After saying that, he stuffed the barbecue into his mouth and sighed, "It's really delicious!"

"No," Dong Chen shook his head and said, "I only cost 3,000 yuan in total, which is not enough. Moreover, I don't have time to stay outside to sell barbecue. I still have to study."

"That's it, then I'll think about it."

Seeing that his good proposal was rejected, Shia was also a little depressed. With such skills, she could open a delicious barbecue restaurant so that she would have a place to eat in the future.

However, since Dong Chen disagreed, she had no choice.

Afterwards, they ate and chatted, and Shia picked out some jobs that seemed very profitable from her cognition.

For example, if you don’t open a barbecue restaurant, it’s okay to open a barbecue stall, but it’s difficult to apply for a certificate and it’s easy to be copied by people from the Blackstone City Public Security Bureau.

Otherwise, it would be fine to cooperate with the school cafeteria. In the school, Principal Andorf has the final say, and the distance between the school is also close. With Dong Chen's superb barbecue skills, he will definitely make a lot of money.

But this was not possible, and it was rejected by Dong Chen. If Principal Andorf knew about it, let alone support it, he might have driven Dong Chen out of the school directly.

Later, Shia said that if she didn't plan to make it herself, she could consider selling the recipe for the seasonings, so that she would not have to worry about these troubles, and she would kill two birds with one stone.

“…”

"After talking for a long time, why can't your advice be separated from eating?"

Dong Chen asked Xiya wonderingly, "Do you only remember to eat your life in your 20 years?"

"Of course not!"

Xiya was very angry when she heard this, then picked up a piece of meat and put it in her mouth, and said with confidence, "My life is wonderful, there are so many things. I'm thinking about it for you!"

"And I don't know what you know. Now I only know that the barbecue you make is delicious. Of course I recommend similar jobs to you!"

"Okay, it makes sense."

Dong Chen really couldn't refute Xiya's justified reason, so he introduced his skills slightly.

Of course, some can be said, and some cannot be said.

Moreover, combined with his multi-ethnic language "cultural person" setting, he talked about some cultural aspects, such as painting, writing, etc.

But these things are also long-term things. If you want to make money in the short term, it seems that you can only buy seasonings and recipes.

However, Xiya is very interested in Dong Chen's skills. These are all the skills of literary youths. He said with admiration, "Dong Chen, you can even draw. Please draw one for me!"

"What do you want that?" Dong Chen asked in confusion.

"Of course I showed it to my friends," Shia patted her breasts and said, "Let them see me now and the scenery here."

"Doesn't there be painters in the school? I have seen a lot of books about drawing in the library, and I have also seen students move easels. Didn't they go to draw?"

Dong Chen asked in confusion.

"There are drawings for drawings, and there are many mechanical drawing masters, but letting them draw is completely different. Although these two are related, it does not mean that you can draw and draw."

"You just came and worked in the library, so I don't know."

"Can you imagine that they painted me with a ruler? I painted it like a steam engine, and I had no place to cry!"

Listening to Shia's "painful" accusation, Dong Chen finally understood that being strong or versatile depends on his personal ability.

Moreover, in the modern society on Earth, it is extremely easy to acquire knowledge, so more and more people become versatile. In this place, there are still many restrictions on the acquisition of knowledge, so it is understandable that only practicing is just a practice.

Drawing a portrait of Xiya is a simple thing for Dong Chen, who was professionally painting before, but Xiya needs to prepare it himself for drawing paper, pencil, drawing board, etc. Dong Chen has nothing here.

This is also a very simple thing for Shia, who is the assistant to the principal, and the deal is reached very quickly.

It is not easy to deal with making money, so Dong Chen asked another question, "How can you join the Science of Science and Technology and become a...uh, technical... clergyman?"
