They were invited into a private room with a decoration style similar to that of Xu Jiu's world in the Republic of China. The two of them sat on red-lacquered solid wood stools, watching the soup in the pot in the middle of the table churn up little by little. Nine ordered a lot of dishes, and when the water boiled, the meat was served first.

The ingredients of the hot pot restaurant are all designed after the way of eating on the ancient earth. Even though there are not many cattle, sheep and vegetables in this era, they can be eaten at a high price.

Xu Jiu picked up the chopsticks and put half a plate of meat into the pot. After watching the thinly sliced ​​meat being cooked, he reminded Fred, "It's ready to eat."

Fred didn't move.

……

Only then did Xu Jiu realize that Fred didn't know how to use chopsticks yet.

Since the invasion of alien species, the world has been reshuffled, and the Huaguo people stood out in that big reshuffle. Slowly, the appearance, surname and culture of the Huaguo people have become the most upscale symbols in the world.

Just like the original owner's surname Bai, which is extremely rare on this planet, this single surname in Chinese characters itself indicates a kind of power and status.

So only nobles would use chopsticks.

Although the Austin family was aristocratic, Fred had never received an elite education, so it was normal for him not to be able to use chopsticks.

Xu Jiu felt quite embarrassed, which was even more uncomfortable than his first time eating western food.

It's normal for him to have never seen the world, and he wouldn't feel ashamed if he sacrificed his face.But how to protect other people's face... It's hard for him.

If I had known earlier, I would have chosen a western restaurant.

Before, I was afraid that Fred would get tired of eating steak every day, but when I think about it, Fred probably hasn't eaten steak much in his life, how could he get tired of it?

Well, next time I will definitely go for western food.

Xu Jiu simply raised his buttocks, placed the cutlery and sauces on Fred's side, and sat down by himself, trying not to put on any expression or tone to make the other party feel more embarrassed, and said: "I think this thing is more convenient than those knives and forks. It is common in our country. You see how I handle it. Today I will hold it for you to eat, and you will have to hold it yourself in the future."

As he spoke, he stretched his chopsticks into the pot, nimbly picked up a piece of beef and put it on the plate in front of Fred.

Fred didn't speak, but just picked up the two thin sticks in front of him, trying to hold them between his fingertips like Xu Jiu did.

"Oh, that's not the case." Xu Jiu stretched out her hands to show him, "Put one here, one here, and pinch like this."

Later, he realized that it was useless to say so, so he simply put down the chopsticks in his hand, reached over and stuffed the chopsticks into his hand, and held his hand with one hand, teaching him to use force.

"That's it, use your middle finger as a lever, don't use too much force...you need to be clever..."

"Sir, this is the dish you ordered." At this moment, the food delivery robot pushed a dining table over, disturbing their precepts and deeds very ignorantly.

Xu Jiu turned her head suddenly and saw Fred's slender eyelashes, and then realized that the two of them had gotten very close at some point.

"Ahem!" Shocked, he quickly let go of his hand and moved to the side.

Fred has lived in the training ground since he went crazy that day, and the two have never had any close contact.

So pure that Xu Jiu almost forgot about the previous incident!

But the feeling of being out of breath is really uncomfortable, especially the experience of extreme joy makes people love and hate it, and just thinking about it afterwards makes me feel ashamed.

Since the hero is not interested in understanding him, he doesn't want to show his presence in front of Fred anymore.

After sitting far away, Xu Jiu felt more at ease in his heart. He didn't notice that Fred was still holding up his chopsticks, and turned his head slowly to look at him.

His expression was as indifferent as ever, only those blue eyes seemed to be dissatisfied.

"Come, come, let's start." Xu Jiu started to put vegetables into the pot as he said, and took out all the meat that was cooked in it just now, and the two of them each had half of it.

The tender beef was rolled in the mouth with the sauce, Xu Jiu only felt that he finally came back to life, and his whole body was much more energetic.

It would be nice to have a cigarette at this time.

It's a pity that Fred is by the side. It always feels inappropriate to take out a cigarette out of thin air at such a time, so I can only forget it.

Unable to swallow, he could only chew to his satisfaction. After a meal, he and Fred actually ate all the meat and vegetables they ordered, and there was nothing left.

"I didn't expect you to look thin, but you can still eat." Xu Jiu patted Fred and said, "Let's go, let's go out for a walk when we're full."

This meal cost Xu Jiu 10,000+ Broncoins, because these are just a small amount for his current status, and when paying the bill, he paid them with his brain without changing his expression.

It was only after finishing the scan that Xu Jiu realized belatedly: This meal is worth more than 1 in RMB... However, he just ate a few plates of meat, some fungi and vegetables, and a plate of noodles Xu Jiu would be shocked if he spent so much money on a meal on the earth. What kind of family should he think about?

However, his identity in this world is that he is rich. Apart from being rich, he is still rich. Although he still feels pain habitually, Xu Jiu still chooses to leave the hot pot restaurant with his head held high, without letting others see the complexity in his heart.

Then he drove Fred away from here, heading straight for the commercial street of this planet.

Fred didn't like to talk very much all the time. They didn't communicate much during the meal just now. Now after eating, they ran to the commercial center for a walk. He still only looked at him with his blue eyes, which made Xu Jiu feel uncomfortable. I feel uncomfortable all over.

Fortunately, Xu Jiu soon arrived at today's destination. He grabbed Fred and dragged him into the mecha shop with a large size, simple and luxurious decoration.

As the name suggests, the mecha shop is a place to sell mechas. The entire store looks like it can be thousands of square meters, and there are more than a dozen towering mechas in rows facing the door, all of which are the latest models of this year.This is the largest and most famous mecha production company in the Federation, with a long history. It was the company that developed the first mecha back then, and Xu Jiu's one was also tailor-made here.

In summary, there is no best, only better.

"Hello, welcome." As soon as he entered the door, a sales robot and a sweet-looking salesperson greeted him. The sales lady recognized the identity of the visitor from Xu Jiu's expensive suit at a glance, and waited. As he got closer, he smelled the noble hot pot smell on the other party, so he knew where the two of them had just finished shopping, and said with a bigger smile on their faces: "May I ask what you need?"

"Oh." Xu Jiu said, "I want to tailor a mecha for him."

As he spoke, he pointed to Fred next to him.

Fred, who was casually looking at the mechas outside the situation, turned his head to look at him in amazement, apparently he did not expect that Xu Jiu brought him here to choose mechas for him.

Or tailor-made.

Because of the need to connect with spiritual power, and because everyone's physical fitness is different, not all mechas are suitable for everyone. In this case, it is best to tailor one.

But the price of finished mechas is already prohibitively expensive, not to mention tailor-made ones, at least twice as expensive as the finished ones, or under normal circumstances.

Fred knew about this a long time ago, and the way he looked at Xu Jiu changed.

The waitress is very good, especially when she sees the face of this thin young man, she doesn't feel very surprised.She smiled and said: "Then come with me, sir. If it is tailor-made, you need to do an inspection of the various data of the husband's body. If you have any key points, you can bring it up. I will record it for you here. Try your best." To meet your request..."

"No need." Fred interrupted the salesman, but he was speaking to Xu Jiu.

Xu Jiu: "..."

I felt instantly humiliated by this kid.

Remember what he did when he hugged the hero's thigh back then?Really, big brother brings you here to give you something, just go ahead, isn't this kid stupid?

[Not everyone is the same as the host. 】888 jumped out and said: 【According to the survey data, there are not many people like you. 】

888 is telling the truth.

It's just that saying this thing in this way will make people feel that it is satirizing Xu Jiunu's coquettishness and doing whatever it takes to complete the task.

At least Xu Jiu thought so.

But he is not afraid of others saying that he can do such a thing. Xu Jiu's attitude is quite straightforward: "Are you going to tell me integrity? Or backbone? Is that thing useful, can it be eaten?"

Xu Jiu from a long time ago also felt that this thing is useful, can be eaten, and can't be thrown away, but what has he got in exchange for earning money with his hands and sweat?He was smashed by the tofu project and the foreman ran away. His mother shed tears all day long, and his sister gave up the opportunity to study in order to treat him... Even if he hadn't met the system, he would have hiccupped Shit, so it's useless to care about so much face, the real benefit is to get the benefits in your own hands.

Xu Jiu made a gesture with the sales lady, and then discussed with Fred, "Your mecha is too broken, so you can't take it out. Obediently listen to my brother."

The sales lady next to him smiled, seeing that Fred was completely unmoved, she said to him gently: "It's okay sir, you can take a test with me first, all your physical data are confidential Yes, if it is not your personal wish, the company will never disclose it to anyone other than you, including this gentleman, you can rest assured..."

"You promise?" Fred looked at the saleswoman with sharp eyes with his well-shaped eyes.

"Of course, this is the guarantee of our company's century-old reputation." The sales lady replied.

Fred nodded: "Then let's go."

I followed the waitress neatly to the back.

Xu Jiu: "..."

The co-author didn't want me to know his body data, so he refused? ?

It's true... the male protagonist is so good at using resources, he has done so many things for free, how could he refuse to accept the mecha he gave him because he has a grudge against him?

It is Fred's routine to drive the mecha he sent to the world!

[Hahahahaha. 】888 laughed wildly in Xu Jiu's mind.

Xu Jiu was annoyed by it: "You... just shut up for me!"

The male protagonist is smarter than he imagined, and Xu Jiu doesn't know whether to cry or laugh.

They went to the back for testing, and Xu Jiu just wandered around the store casually, teasing the little robot that was left here by the way.

"This is a robotic arm built in 3048. You can compare it with the previous robotic arms. It is a major breakthrough in the history of mechs, both in terms of craftsmanship and performance."

"It's pretty good, so why don't you take it out for me to try?"

The little robot hesitated, and said, "This robotic arm is an exhibit, so I can't take it out for you to try."

Xu Jiu: ...

What the hell is this? If you can't try it, why would you let me see it?

Walking around the store again, Xu Jiu felt that these things were good, but they might be too far away from his education level, and Xu Jiu had gradually lost interest in these high technologies.

He is not a scientist either. If he really understands this stuff, he can secretly learn the technology and bring it back to the real world to see what he can make a contribution to. Thoughts, so no matter how developed this world is, it’s just a fleeting moment for him. Xu Jiu understands that his purpose is to do the task, and his goal has always been the male lead.

After a while, a formally dressed employee came out from behind. When he saw Xu Jiu, he was taken aback, and then came to greet him very attentively: "Master Bai!"

[This person is the store manager here. 】888 introduced to Xu Jiu.

Reminiscent of the fact that Bai Nuo's previous mechas were ordered in this company, it was not surprising that he would be recognized, so Xu Jiu nodded to him.

"Why didn't you let Young Master Bai know in advance, so that I can send someone to welcome you!" The man waved his hand to the little robot as he spoke, signaling that it was nothing to do with it.

The little robot obediently withdrew to the side, and the store manager turned back with a gracious face: "Master Bai is here this time to maintain the mecha? Or?"

[How dare he despise our intelligent body so much? ! 】888 shouted in Xu Jiu's mind.

Xu Jiu: ...

No, starling, you are too sensitive.

I don't know what kind of intersection the original owner had with this person before, and Xu Jiu didn't plan to have a deep talk with him, but just said: "I came here with a friend."

Naturally, Bai Nuo's friends are not ordinary people, the store manager thought that Young Master Bai was introducing a client to him, so he politely asked Bai Nuo to sit down, and then asked the little machine to make tea for him.

"Don't be so polite, he should come out soon..."

Before Xu Jiu finished speaking, Fred had already come out with the smiling sales lady.

Xu Jiu hurriedly went up to meet him: "How is it? Have you tested everything?"

As expected, he didn't ask a single word about the hero's information.

In fact, there is no need to ask, he knows more about the hero than he knows about his own body.

"It's been tested sir." The sales lady said.

The store manager came over, and was taken aback when he saw the thin Fred—this young man doesn't look like a rich man, but he has such a long face... Tsk tsk, I didn't expect Master Bai to be so good.

No matter how complicated the inner activities are, it doesn't affect him to put on a professional smile: "Is it buying a mecha for this gentleman?"

"Shop Manager, this gentleman wants to order."

"Oh? Ah! Oh..." The store manager nodded meaningfully, and looked at Xu Jiu with envy.

Look, buying a mecha for a little lover to play with is already quite generous, but when you arrive at Young Master Bai's place, you can order it directly to order. A nobleman is a nobleman, and his actions are different from ordinary people's.

Xu Jiu didn't know what the store manager was thinking. He nodded and said, "Well, I want the mecha that suits him best and has the best performance."

"Oh..." The store manager expressed understanding, "Then let's sit down and talk about it, and remember all the requirements of this little gentleman."

He said the second half of the sentence to his salesperson.

Several people walked towards the rest area.

The store manager deliberately leaned over to Xu Jiu's side, and asked tentatively, "I don't know the price of the mecha that Young Master Bai wants to order for this gentleman?"

Because Young Master Bai is full of words, you need the most suitable one with the best performance... However, there are too many components in a mecha, and there are countless materials to choose from for the mecha shell alone, and the price difference is ten times Everything is there, not to mention other precision parts.

It's not like I haven't seen this kind of situation where local tyrants bring their little lovers to buy mechas before. Most of them just want to make their sweetheart happy. They didn't want to spend too much money on it.

In this situation, the bosses usually talk a lot, asking for the best and so on, but if they choose too good and expensive parts according to the boss's requirements, they will be too vicious.

However, Xu Jiu, who was not at all for the spring night, didn't know the store manager's careful thoughts. He thought about it and found that he didn't know the general price of mechas in this world, so he asked, "What is the price of my mecha?"

"Your dark color is specially enhanced in terms of performance on our company's main style. It was tailor-made by the chief mech master specially hired by our company, and our store applied for the biggest discount for Young Master Bai. The price at that time was one 8000 million Broncoins." The store manager is obviously very professional, and he will come to the information of important customers with his mouth.

Although he didn't understand why Young Master Bai suddenly asked this...

"Oh." 8000 million is his pocket money for more than two months, Xu Jiu thinks he can still afford it.

So he nodded, "Then follow this price, it doesn't matter if it's higher, you want the best."

Xu Jiu emphasized.

Even a rookie like him has to use a mecha at this price, so the male protagonist must use it better than his own!However, considering that Freire is still a middle school student and doesn't need to be too good, so just get an over-the-top model that is convenient for his training, and then change to a better one when he enters the Advanced Mecha Academy...

Xu Jiu was thinking like this, but he didn't notice two gasping sounds from the corridor leading to the lounge.

8000 million Broncoins!The store manager and the salesperson looked at each other, and they both saw the shock in each other's eyes.

That's 8000 million!You must know that their store was named the sales champion last year because they sold a mecha at this price!Unexpectedly... this year will be the champion again!

Young Master Bai is really rich and powerful... Oh no, he spends a lot of money!

This young man is so happy!

Xu Jiu didn't know that her monthly pocket money was probably a year's or even two years' salary for ordinary people on this planet.

How many people save money but can only buy an ordinary mecha for their children.

But Xu Jiu didn't know about these things. Although he had learned about them in the materials, he was a young master when he wore them. His prices and worldview in the real world can't be used as a reference here, so Xu Jiu couldn't understand these brown coins. the value of.

Even if he knew it was useless, he would still change Fred's mecha without hesitation.

In the excitement of the store manager and the salesperson who was about to cry, Fred couldn't help turning his head to look at Xu Jiu.

He still didn't have any expression on his face, and this glance was neither sad nor happy, as if it was just a simple glance.

But the hand hidden in the jeans pocket was clenched tightly, and the teeth were clenched, as if some kind of stimulation had been received.

In the reception room, Xu Jiu sat drinking tea and watched the sales lady write down Fred's requests one by one.

Don't look at Fred's Mecha Breaker, but his understanding of Mecha is far superior to his own, and he can even speak out the parameter values ​​that need to meet the standards in some places, which makes Xu Jiu stunned. , I once again feel that I am not suitable to live on this planet.

After all the requirements were raised and the price was settled, the Jijia company gave Xu Jiu a price of [-] million Broncoins.

Xu Jiu asked 888: "How much savings does the original owner have?"

888 told him a number, which was too long for Xu Jiu to remember, so he could only remember that the beginning was more than two billion.

... As long as there is still a deposit, he will be at ease if he has a deposit, and he will not plan too much, so Xu Jiu said: "No problem. When will it be done?"

"Half, half a month." The store manager even breathed lightly, for fear that Master Bai would regret it if he thought it was too expensive.

"Okay." Xu Jiu said, "Where do I pay the deposit?"

……

After paying the deposit and signing the contract, Xu Jiu left the store with Fred.

The air at night is humid and cool, but the environment here is no longer the environment of the ancient earth. Even after it has just rained, there is no smell of grass and soil. Instead, there is a metallic smell, which makes people smell very uncomfortable.

At this time Fred asked: "Why did you buy me a mecha?"

This seemed to be the first time he took the initiative to talk to Xu Jiu.

Xu Jiu thought carefully about what to ask, and then said, "Save you from being bullied when I'm not around."

"Although I have told those people that they are not allowed to provoke you again, no one can say for sure about this thing, Lao Tzu... I am not God, and I cannot protect you forever."

He is telling the truth, what he is most afraid of now is that the hero will get hurt!

But when these words fell into the ears of others, it changed the taste.

Fred gave him a meaningful look.

Now that this incident was mentioned, Xu Jiu said again: "With a mecha that you can take advantage of, you can eat more in the future, and if you grow stronger, no one will dare to bully you."

Fred didn't answer and didn't respond. Xu Jiu knew that he heard it, and also knew that Fred didn't fully believe that he was no longer Bai Nuo, so he didn't want to let go of his guard. His childhood experience taught him to be indifferent. It was something that could not be changed overnight, so Xu Jiu didn't take his attitude towards him seriously.

They did not continue the subject.

The two of them walked side by side on the street after the rain in the commercial street, and neither of them spoke.

At this time, it was already very late, and Bai Nuo's classmate, who was about to go to the nightclub to be chic, saw this scene and couldn't help but turn pale with shock.

"Look, it's Bai Nuo!"

"Oh my god! It's really Bai Nuo. I haven't seen him come out to play for several days. This is..."

"The one next to him is... Fred?!"
