There is indeed a problem with my summoning spirit system

Chapter 282. 277. Godfather
"Hi everyone, your friend Xiaoyu is here again as promised. Did you miss me?"

At 5 p.m., the outdoor anchor Xiaoyu raised his selfie stick and opened his live broadcast room.

"Anchor, you are too lazy. You actually postponed the live broadcast because of the hot weather. You have no fighting spirit at all!"

"Anchor, you are late again, deduct money!"

"See this big red rocket? It was meant to be for you, but you were late so it blew up. Boom!"

"Congratulations to the host for losing a rocket and firecracker! (ov)ノ"

"I know you upstairs. You are an old fan. You are very diligent in sending bullets, but rockets? Do you have the ability to send rockets?"

"Let me answer for him, he didn't. He is the big brother who always only gives fishballs!"

"66666"

"6666"

……

Xiaoyu first let the barrage float for a while, and after the fans finished cheering, she explained:
"Everyone, please forgive me. Summer is approaching day by day. The weather in Kyoto is getting hotter and hotter. Going out at noon is deadly. Even if you don't have heat stroke, you will have to sweat profusely. This level of heat and sweating can't be stopped. , The makeup on my face was worn out not long after I went out. Now is a good time, although I still have to sweat, but waterproof makeup can still be fixed."

"Anchor, you actually put on makeup? Cancel it, cancel it..."

"Off +1"

"Off +1"

"Off +10086"

……

Although the fans in the live broadcast room clamored to cancel the pass, Xiaoyu was no stranger to it.Makeup and beauty filters are already the standard operation of female anchors, and Xiaoyu has never concealed this point.

And because you want to take pictures of food and drinks, the beauty filter will distort the effect and the color will become weird.In order to ensure the effect of the food in the live video, Xiaoyu often turns off the filter.It is not once or twice to appear on the scene without a beauty filter, and most of the audience are used to it.

Besides, although Xiaoyu is not as good as those big stars on the screen, but he is confident to be an anchor, and his appearance is still good. At least after putting on makeup, he can be regarded as a close to eight-point beauty.And that's one of her selling points.

As for the cancellation that fans are clamoring for, it's basically a joke.If there are really so few people who cancel the level, those who can't be kept can't be kept, and no matter how hard they try, it is impossible to become their own fan.She has already seen it.

"Okay, today Xiaoyu will take everyone to take a real walk through the streets after a long time. Today's itinerary was not planned in advance, but I just looked at the map and chose a block that we have never been to before. Will there be any surprises in this area?"

As Xiaoyu said, he held up the selfie stick in his hand and turned around in a circle, showing his current surroundings to the fans in the live broadcast room.

"Really walking around the streets? The anchor means that this time it's not the right meal?"

"The anchor is so obsessed with money. If he has food, he must do it right. I guess he really doesn't have food this time."

"Begging Anchor"

"Begging Anchor"

"Begging Anchor"

"Xiaoyu: 'I finally became an anchor, and I have tens of thousands of fans. I still have to advertise, I have to try my best to cover up my food, and I have to watch the faces of fans and merchants. Am I not a beggar on my knees?' "

"Fans: 'Then you want to put it this way, coming to DY to be an anchor is really a beggar on your knees. That's it, it's not good, it's not good to kneel!'"

"Xiaoyu: 'Let me ask you, why didn't I find a decent job? I just have bad legs and I can't kneel down!'"

"Fans: 'So you want to stand up and make money. Then go back to the mountains.'"

"Xiaoyu: 'I don't understand this, I already have tens of thousands of fans, how can I not be as good as a vagrant?'"

"Fans: 'In our eyes, you can still be regarded as an anchor. But in the eyes of merchants and DY platforms, you are just begging on your knees. You are making money, business, not shabby.'"

"Little fish: 'Shabby! So fucking shabby!'"

"Fans: 'Then do you want to stand, or do you want to make money?'"

"Xiaoyu: 'I want to stand and make money!'"

"Fans (shaking their heads, said sternly): 'You can't make money!'"

"Xiaoyu: 'Can't you make money?'"

"Fans: 'You can't earn it.'"

"Xiaoyu: (Throws out a gun from his cuff, with four large characters written on it - Qiafan advertisement. It is photographed on the desk, and the sleeves are rolled up): 'Can this make money?'"

"Fans: 'You can earn, but lose some face and reputation.'"

"Xiaoyu (shooting the case with a tipped airplane rocket): 'Can this make money?'"

"Fans: 'You can make money and serve the audience.'"

"Xiaoyu: 'With this and this, can you make money standing up?'"

"Fans: 'Dare to ask where the elder brother is sacred?'"

"Xiaoyu: 'My lord, the DY outdoor anchor is chafan crazy, Xiaoyu!'"

Seeing the self-compassion of the barrage audience, Xiaoyu couldn't laugh or cry.Had to forcibly pull back to the topic.

"Don't be funny, everyone. Today I really plan to have a random encounter. This is a pedestrian street near Di'anmen Street in Qianhai East. It is estimated to have a length of 500 meters. I will take everyone on this street today. Take a walk around and see if you can find an eye-catching store, let's go!"

Holding a selfie stick, Xiaoyu walked into the pedestrian street.

There are many businesses on the left and right sides of the pedestrian street, and Xiaoyu commented on the decorations of the major businesses while walking:
"This milk tea shop is similar to the few milk tea shops just now. Why are there so many new milk tea shops opening in 9012? And it has no advantage over other milk tea shops in terms of taste and variety. You can earn a lot of money this way. money?"

Someone also started a discussion in the barrage:

"Many people follow the trend to open milk tea shops, but the milk tea shops they join have not been investigated in detail. Now many so-called chain milk tea shops are actually framing the franchise fee."

"The milk tea shop looks very beautiful, but whether it is location selection, raw materials, decoration, new beverage varieties and store products are all very important. Only a very small number of people can really make money."

"The two big brothers upstairs seem to have suffered a lot. Can you tell the story of the two?"

"What? Is there something embarrassing to listen to? Melon seeds are sold in the front row!"

……

Xiaoyu continued to move forward while chatting and farting with the audience in the live broadcast room. Suddenly, she heard a faint but clear sound of a harmonica.

"I miss it so much. This seems to be the castle in the sky. When I was a child, I watched the episode of "Spirited Away" animated film by Hayao Miyazaki several times. Which shop owner is so sentimental?"

Xiaoyu followed the sound of the harmonica and found a shop not far away on the street.

I looked at the decoration of the store outside the open door. The store's facade has been completely re-decorated, and the overall style is a combination of retro wood and metal. There is a display board at the door with a few lines of words written on it - Provided The world's three major non-alcoholic beverages (coffee, tea, hot cocoa), also sell alcoholic beverages.

Judging from the almost new state of the signs and display boards, the store should have just opened not long ago.From the half-open gate, the voice of Sky City can be heard clearly.

"Is there a small shop? The owner chose the name so casually. Is the thing written on the display board true? It is very good for a general coffee shop to do one of them well. There are four more?"

Xiaoyu said to himself, but the store in front of him still has enough gimmicks. For outdoor live broadcasts, the key is highlights, contrasts, gimmicks, and new things that can arouse the curiosity of the audience.

Walking into the store, a few sporadic customers are sitting on their seats doing their own things, and at a side position in the store, a girl with long hair is playing the harmonica.It is the melody of the castle in the sky.

"It turned out that someone was playing a musical instrument. I thought it was the music played by the shopkeeper."

"Playing live, the big scale is much higher all of a sudden."

"Eh? Xiaoyu, look at that guy at the bar, is he the one you failed to strike up a conversation with at the hot pot restaurant a few months ago?"

"Really! It seems like! I was at the scene a few months ago. Although I changed my clothes, it should be him. Xiaoyu, look at the bar guy!"

"What happened? But since everyone is swiping, I'll do it too. Xiaoyu, look at the counter!"

After looking at the structure of the store, Xiaoyu was about to say something to the audience in the live broadcast room, but found that the barrage in the live broadcast room was all "Xiaoyu, look at the bar brother!"

"What are you talking about? Bartender? Is there anything special?"

Looking up, Xiaoyu saw a familiar face.

Although it was only a one-time relationship, but because the other party left a deep impression on him, although his memory of the face was a little fuzzy, when he saw the other party's face appearing in front of him, Xiaoyu immediately recalled it this person.

"What a coincidence, handsome guy, I can see you here."

Li Xiang, who was holding a few coffee beans, looked up carefully, and saw a young woman who looked about six or seven, holding a selfie stick, and the earphones of white earphones were taped to her mouth, looking at her .From what she said, this woman seemed to know herself.But no matter how Li tried to recall, he couldn't remember where he had seen this person.

In the end, Li Xiang asked tentatively:

"May I ask who is calling?"

The barrage in Xiaoyu's live broadcast room suddenly turned into a sea of ​​joy.

"Congratulations to the anchor for putting a hot face on a cold ass again."

"The handsome guy completed a double kill."

"I didn't expect that I could see such a perfect realistic interpretation of the idiom of being self-confident in my lifetime. Xiaoyu NB."

"It's such a sad scene, why am I laughing?"

"Brother: Who are you? Where are you? What are you going to do?"

……

The atmosphere was a little awkward, but since Xiaoyu can be a host, such scenes will not happen once or twice. She has long developed a thick skin, so she explained without any hesitation:

"Handsome, you may not remember. I am Xiaoyu, the anchor of the live broadcast on the DY platform. We met in a hot pot restaurant a few months ago, and we chatted for a while."

After searching in the corners of his brain, Li Xiang finally remembered this matter,
"Hey, that's really a coincidence, it's still live broadcast now?"

"Yes, you see, this is the audience in our live broadcast room."

Xiaoyu took off the phone from the selfie stick and turned the screen of the phone to Li Xiang.

As Xiaoyu said, there are many barrages flying from left to right on the screen.According to the rule that the barrage of the live broadcast platform is far smaller than the number of viewers under normal circumstances, the number of fans of the female anchor in front of me seems to be quite a lot.

"Hello, then...Miss Xiaoyu, right? You are..."

"That's it, the content of my live broadcast room is to lead everyone to find delicious and fun things around Kyoto. Today I was wandering on the street, looking for attractive and characteristic shops, and then I was attracted by the sound of harmonica in your shop Here we come. Are you the... er... barista of this store?"

Looking at the coffee beans in Li Xiang's hand, Xiaoyu made a reckless guess.

Li Xiang looked down at the coffee beans in his hand and smiled.

"I am the owner of this store, and I also serve as a barista and bartender." Li Xiang casually glanced at the phone screen in Xiaoyu's hand, and the bullet screens on it were still popping up.He was a little moved in his heart: "Miss Xiaoyu, since we are so destined, what should I treat you to drink? Coffee, pure tea, fruit tea, and cocktails, which one do you like more?"

"Eh? Really? Then thank the owner, I drink a lot of coffee and tea, so let's have a cocktail, it should be suitable for girls and women."

"The alcohol content is low, okay, I understand, Miss Xiaoyu, wait a moment."

Li Xiang turned around and took down a few bottles of wine from the wine cabinet behind him. He also took out a bar spoon, a classical cup and a stainless steel three-pronged ice pick from the cabinet under the bar.

From the refrigerator under the bar, he took out a square piece of old ice about 10 cm in length, width and height. Putting on a glove, Li Xiang picked up the stainless steel ice pick and chiseled the ice ball.

"Wow, are you hand-chiseling a hockey puck? This is the first time I've seen it."

"The upstairs is too rough, right? It's just a hockey puck. It's the first time for a social person like me..."

"My little brother's movements seem to be very skilled, and his skills should be good."

The fans in the barrage were still chatting, but in order to enrich the content of the live broadcast, Xiaoyu asked:
"Handsome guy, why do you want to chisel the puck with your hands?"

"Huh? Are you talking about ice hockey? A more elegant way of saying it is that ice hockey is a sphere with a relatively small surface area, which can keep the ice cold longer. To put it more informally, it is just to look good and improve the style."

"So that's what it's for. Shouldn't there be some very professional and high-end reason?"

"Barending is difficult, but it's not difficult. Customers order wine when they enter the bar, but it's not just wine. One of the reasons is to sit in front of the bar and enjoy the bartender's performance. Some customers enter the bar to relieve their anxiety. Let him watch me chisel a hockey puck and enjoy the crystal clear texture of the puck in the liquid after the puck enters the classical cup, which is quite decompressive.”

Three times, five times and two times, Li Xiang has already chiseled the ice ball cleanly. He put the ice ball into the classical cup, rinsed the surface of the ice ball with a special filter and clean ice water, filtered out the ice water, and finished washing. ice.

"Although there are special machines on the market now, you can customize ice in any shape, heart-shaped, diamond-shaped, oval-shaped. But the machine costs money. For a small bar like ours, if it can be replaced by manual labor, of course it will be replaced by manual labor. "

"Hahahaha, the bartender brother is real."

"The reason for saving money is so overwhelming."

"Am I the only one who thinks the way the bartender cuts the hockey puck is chic and handsome?"

"No, you're not alone, and I feel the same way."

……

Lee wanted to break open the whiskey and amaretto liqueur, pouring them into vintage glasses in a two-to-one ratio.After a little swirling with a bar spoon to mix, cut off a strip of yuzu orange peel and heat it with the flame of a small hand-held blowtorch to toast the aroma and add aroma to the cocktail.

After everything was done, Li Xiang pushed the wine glass in front of Xiaoyu:
"Godfather of cocktails, please use slowly."

Xiaoyu was puzzled and said:
"Godfather? I seem to have heard the name of this cocktail. Don't you think it's a cocktail for men?"

"Hahaha, although the alcohol content of whiskey and almond liqueur is not low, the taste of Godfather wine is relatively soft. 'A wine suitable for men should be as strong as white wine.' This is actually a stereotype. , even more so in the case of the Godfather.”

Li Xiang picked up the almond liqueur bottle, pointed to the bottle and said to Xiaoyu:
"The reason why the Godfather cocktail got the name of the 'man' because the Godfather is a very masculine gangster character in a gangster movie. And this character is from Italy. This almond liqueur comes from Italy, that's why the cocktail made with it has the name Godfather."

"One-third of the Godfather wine is prepared with almond liqueur, which is already a large proportion. The taste of almond liqueur is actually very sweet. So from the perspective of flavor, this is actually a relatively Soft, a wine suitable for girls, not as tough and masculine as its name, Godfather."

"Brother is really a professional."

"What should I do, I'm so handsome and stylish, I'm going to be a fan of this bartender guy."

"My fans, please don't add drama to yourself, this is a live broadcast room for macho men."

……

Xiaoyu nodded, acting as if suddenly enlightened:
"So this is ah."

She picked up the glass and took a sip.

"Sure enough, as you said, the taste of this wine is a bit sweet. But I think it's still a bit strong."

"This is inevitable. After all, whiskey needs to be distilled at the end of the processing process. The alcohol content is generally around 40%, and the alcohol content of liqueur is not lower than 17%. However, I only added 60ml of alcohol to this glass of wine. Occasionally It's okay to drink a little alcohol."
