Chapter 793: Chapter 793
"Mr. Liu, what do you mean by this...?"
The bald manager asked cautiously.
Generally speaking, if someone you’re not familiar with suddenly asks if you have any unspoken troubles, they’re either a scammer or a miracle doctor.
But whether it’s the former or the latter, it’s not good news.
"I don’t mean anything special; I just like making friends. I think you’re a good person, Manager Xu, and I’d like to make friends with you, so I want to give you a small gift to start."
"I’m honored to be friends with Mr. Liu. However, you’ve already given too much money. I really don’t dare to accept any more."
The bald manager said with a wry smile.
In his life, he has seen countless people, both dead and alive, not to say he’s infallible, but he’s rarely wrong in judging people.
Despite Liu Zheng’s sophisticated manners and logical words, the bald manager sensed the madness beneath his calm exterior.
Who wouldn’t be afraid if a madman wanted to be your friend?
If you don’t agree, you’ll definitely get cut; if you do, you might still get cut. Who could handle that?
"Then let’s not talk about money. There are many worries at mid-life, and I’d like to hear about yours."
"Mr. Liu, please don’t make it difficult for me. How about this: I’ll call my superior for instructions. If it’s not possible, then there’s really nothing I can do, and I’ll return the tip you gave before."
The bald manager tactfully refused.
He didn’t push further.
Unsolicited business is not business; as long as his words leave a seed, there will be a time for it to sprout.
The bald manager hung up and called back after waiting for more than ten minutes.
"Our leader has agreed to your request in principle, but we also have a request."
No fear of wild demands, only fear of no demands, otherwise how could he shoot through.
"We, the funeral parlor, would like a coffin made from the trunk of the French Plane Tree on Rose Street, which has gained sentience."
The bald manager said.
"...Have you investigated me?"
Liu Zheng asked with a strange expression.
"Well, expanding client information is also an important part of corporate operations."
The bald manager said tactfully.
"Do you know it’s already evolved?"
"Ah? We haven’t got that information yet. Has it already run away?"
Upon hearing this, the bald manager was shocked.
"No, it hasn’t, but it’s now more delicate and expensive. I highly doubt our transaction is of equal value."
"Then please wait a moment, we’ll send someone to confirm immediately."
The bald manager said.
"Go ahead. If you get caught, just mention my name, and you might keep your life."
"Okay, thank you, Mr. Liu."
The bald manager hung up, and the phone didn’t ring again until Ghost Hand crawled in.
Liu Zheng took two drinks and desserts for it, then picked up the takeout order. Nᴇw ɴovel chaptᴇrs are published on Nov3lFɪre.ɴet
"Item: Colorful Jelly, one portion"
"Address: West Union Center entrance."
"Ordered by: Vice Director Li"
"Time limit: one hour"
"So it’s Green Lawn Culture’s order that came first."
He was mildly surprised.
But on second thought, it made sense, the pajama boy sought mere gustatory delight, while Green Lawn Culture sought millions, even billions, in benefits.
Ghost Hand, satisfied and full, patted Liu Zheng on the shoulder with satisfaction, then turned and crawled away.
He picked up the half-empty box and walked out of the lounge.
Opening the food box on the food cart, a portion of jelly as large as two fists appeared in front of him.
Although its shape and gloss resembled jelly, the texture was hard to describe, not only lacking transparency but also filled with colorful flocculent substances, which is probably the origin of the "colorful" prefix.
"Name: Colorful Jelly (Single Use)"
"Effect One: Slightly restores stamina."
"Effect Two: Temporarily enhances sexual performance and increases the likelihood of impregnation for reproducers (ineffective for those unable to conceive or for Immortal Species, etc. who are extremely difficult to impregnate)."
"Note: Made from the essence of over a hundred species, this miraculous food not only allows you and your partner to have a harmonious sex life but can also bring a new child to your family (as long as you don’t mind who its biological father is)."
"Portable outside the instance: Yes"
"... hard to assess."
Liu Zheng put it into the Legendary Takeout Box with a twitch at the corner of his eye.
Not to say it’s only an excellent quality item, but even if it were perfect!
He’d still have to consider its effects before deciding whether to consume it.
Fortunately, the green light lit up again, and he didn’t have to endure another bout of Spirit pollution.
Liu Zheng walked to the food delivery passage but didn’t enter immediately; he first put the box he was holding in.
The next second after stepping into the passage, he indeed no longer appeared directly at the exit.
"Here’s the drink and dessert I brought for you, as I don’t know your taste and appetite, I selected some at random. If you’re satisfied, keep the item and spit out the box."
He said while leaning against the wall.
If not satisfied, it would naturally spit out both the item and the box.
In the darkness, there seemed to be the sound of a giant beast swallowing, or some mechanism operating.
Liu Zheng felt around with his cords, and the box was still there, but the contents were gone.
He smiled, patting the wall lightly.
He was about to call the Driver to rent a car when the phone rang.
"Mr. Liu, we have confirmed that the French Plane Tree has indeed evolved."
The bald manager said.
