I open a restaurant in the demon world

Lu Chi thought about it for a while, and felt that he couldn't do this. If he continued to make fried locusts for free, he might owe 385 a loan shark, so he had to change his method.

Lu Chi discussed with Li Ahua's family, and by the way, justified the fact that he borrowed to live in their house, "Starting tomorrow, I will not make fried locusts for free for everyone. If you want to eat, you can catch locusts in exchange, such as ten catties of locusts You can change it to three catties of fried locusts, because they will be dehydrated after frying, and the serving size will be reduced. If you don’t want to catch locusts, you can also buy them from me directly, of course, if you want to eat, it’s free.”

"In addition, I can't live in your house for nothing. Can you rent this room to me temporarily? How about renting it at 120 yuan a month? Then I need to lend me the kitchen, but I will cook your meals, how about it? If If there is something unreasonable, we can discuss it again.”

Lu Chi also specifically inquired about the currency situation here today. The currency commonly used by the demons is called magic star coins. The magic star coins have a good purchasing power. One magic star coin can buy two catties of pork. In this remote and backward Lihe Village , even the most powerful village head's family, I'm afraid they won't be able to get 1 magic star coins all at once.

Moreover, the demons in Lihe Village are basically self-sufficient. Although there are not many places to spend money, there are even fewer opportunities to make money. Based on Lu Chi's understanding of Li Ahua's family, their family may not be able to save for a year. It cost a few hundred magic star coins, so Lu Chi asked 120 magic star coins for a month's rent, just renting the room he lives in now, which is definitely a sky-high price.

Of course, Lu Chi did this to repay Li Ahua's kindness. No matter what, Li Ahua took him home and took him in a coma. Find it elsewhere.

After listening to Lu Chi's words, the reaction of Li Ahua's family was also very real - they were all stunned.

Sha Xiaoniu was the first to realize that although he was happy, he was afraid that such a good thing would go to another family, so he said: "Lu Chi, we have no problem with you living in our house. Of course, it is not wrong if you must pay rent." No, but 120 is a bit too much, so you can give [-]... no, [-]."

Even if it's fifty, it's a lot of money for Sha Xiaoniu. Fifty a month means six hundred a year.

Now the long-toothed demons in Lihe village marry a long-tailed demon with a bride price of only [-] to [-] miles.

Although Lu Chi is penniless, he is quite confident in himself, "Just 120, I may not always stay in Lihe Village, and I may go to other places in the future. I will trouble you a lot during this time." I’ve taken care of it, maybe there’s still something I need your help with.”

Li Ahua became anxious when she heard the words, "What? Are you leaving? Where are you going?"

Lu Chi smiled, "I haven't thought about it yet, let's talk about it later."

Li Ahua was a little unhappy.

But Li Dahong and Sha Xiaoniu were both excited by the monthly rent of 120 Magic Star Coins. They both wanted and guilty, and finally bargained with Lu Chi and settled on 100 Magic Star Coins a month.

In fact, they originally wanted to say that 120 magic star coins a month included unconditional use of the kitchen, but in that case Lu Chi would not cook for them.

After discussing the rent and the right to use the kitchen with them, Lu Chi went back to sleep. To be honest, he was also very tired today. He ran around the jungle with Li Ahua and the others for a day, and when he came back, he fried a few big pots of locusts. Almost never rested.

Before going to bed, Lu Chi took the last two pills in the bottle of special healing medicine, and when he woke up early the next morning, he was alive again, and Lu Chi could feel that he was back to his best condition, except for the faint scars, There were almost no other sequelae left, and he was even sure to have a one-on-one duel with Li Ahua, although of course he was not completely sure of winning.

After Lu Chi finished his breakfast, he went to the northern cemetery alone to pick red bean berries. He was going to make some red bean berry candied haws as a small gift for the "opening of business".

Coincidentally, Lu Chi met Huang Laosan again, and he still knocked "duk tuk tuk". This time Lu Chi didn't hide, and walked over generously. Lu Chi smiled and explained his reason for coming, "Can you give me some of the things you got? It's not for nothing. Later, I can give you some red beans, berries, candied haws and fried locusts that I made. If you like, You can bring things to me in exchange later.”

Huang Laosan obviously didn't want to give it away. His ferocious face was distorted, like anger, but also like grievance. It seemed that he would violently fight Lu Chi at any time.

Lu Chi saw that this posture was not right, and he silently stepped back two steps to run away, but Huang Laosan said angrily: "Take it! I only shed my shell this morning."

Lu Chi was holding two or three catties of yellow rice grains, and his expression was a little dazed. Why did he feel like he was being treated as a shameless robber who took advantage of the evil?

He almost returned the yellow rice grains in his hand to Huang Laosan in a frank manner, but he was reluctant, after all, this thing that looked like a large millet was a staple food at first glance!

It just so happened that 385 also gave the test results:

【Yellow Corn——

Delicious level: three stars (average taste)

Vitality content: a small amount

Special effect: nourishing Qi and nourishing the stomach]

Well, Lu Chi didn't want to pay it back at all. He was going to give Huang Laosan more fried locusts later, as compensation.

At the same time, several demons had gone out early in the morning to catch locusts and came to Li Ahua's house to find Lu Chi, and under Lu Chi's instructions, Li Ahu repeated his words: "Lu Chi said, he did it!" Frying locusts also requires cost, you can’t do it for nothing, you can exchange locusts, ten catties of fresh locusts can be exchanged for three catties of fried locusts, don’t want to die. If you don’t want to trade, you can buy it with money, one magic star coin per catty.”

Hearing this, some demons quit immediately, "Why? Only ten catties of locusts can be exchanged for three catties of fried locusts? Isn't this too dark?"

"That's right, return one magic star coin for one catty? Is it more expensive than pork?"

This is the first time Li Ahu faced this kind of questioning. He felt as guilty as if he was a black-hearted profiteer, but he still said according to Lu Chi's confession: "Lu Chi said that the fried locusts will be dehydrated, and ten catties of fresh locusts can be fried. It weighs six to seven catties, and he has to produce oil, seasoning and labor, all of which require his talent. And although pork can buy two catties with one magic star coin, it is raw meat, which is different, and it can be fried. Are locusts fragrant?"

A group of villagers: "..."

Really not, it is also the first time they have eaten such a delicious thing, some are so greedy that they eat fried locusts in their dreams at night, and they go to catch locusts when they get up early in the morning, so who knows that Lu Chi will come for them This set?

The villagers were somewhat aggrieved. After all, many demons hadn't tasted the things that were free yesterday. Who wants to spend money today?

At that time, several demons turned their heads and went home, including those who came later, after hearing Li Ahu say the same thing, they all said: Isn't it just fried locusts?The locusts are all there, they just go back and fry them.

Of course, there were a few who didn’t leave. Some of them caught a lot of locusts, and it was acceptable to exchange ten catties of fresh locusts for three catties of finished products.

In short, when Lu Chi came back, there were only a few who were willing to exchange fresh locusts for finished products, and none of them were willing to spend money to buy them.

This situation is naturally within Lu Chi's expectations. After all, Lihe Village is really poor, and the villagers are used to a self-sufficient lifestyle. The only money they have will be used to buy some other necessities, such as food. basically unlikely.

But Lu Chi is not worried about this, because he knows that although the fried locusts he made look simple, it is difficult for demons who have no seasoning to reproduce, not to mention cumin, salt, pepper and tomato sauce. However, it is not easy to refine oil alone.

The demons are keen on eating meat, so I'm afraid they haven't explored much vegetable oil. As for animal oil, the animals here are basically natural and wild, and the fat content on their bodies is low. It is difficult to extract it according to the existing cooking methods of the demons. .

Taking a step back, even if the demons have researched all these seasonings, Lu Chi can still do something else, not limited to fried locusts. The art is average, just the delicacies he has eaten and seen before, slowly researching and groping, is enough for him to develop a set of cuisines in the devil world.

Right now, Lu Chi quickly made candied haws with red beans, berries and candied haws. The demons who were waiting for him to fry the locusts were very curious when they saw it. Their attitude at the beginning was the same as that of Li Ahu. They all swallowed their saliva - it looks delicious?

Lu Chi said generously: "In order to thank everyone for taking care of my business, after the red bean berry candied haws is finished drying, everyone can take two skewers home and taste the taste."

While drying red beans, berries, and candied haws, Lu Chi had skillfully blanched and fried the locusts. These villagers brought a total of fifty or sixty kilograms of locusts. Finished.

After dividing the villagers' share, it was already noon, and Lu Chi still had about [-] kilograms of fried locusts left. How to sell them was a big problem.

Today Li Dahong and Li Ahua went out to hunt as usual, Li Ahu repaired the cowshed at home, and Sha Xiaoniu went out to collect fodder for the animals.

When Sha Xiaoniu came back at noon, Lu Chi asked him to eat some locusts with Li Ahu, and then said to Sha Xiaoniu: "I want to sell the remaining fried locusts in the town, but I don't know the way too well, can you Come with me? I'll share [-]% of the money you sell, if you can't sell it, you can take it back for dinner, let's eat together, do you think it's okay?"

Compared to Li Ahu, Lu Chi felt that Sha Xiaoniu might be more familiar with the situation in the town.

It happened that Sha Xiaoniu had already mowed the grass in the morning, and there was nothing else to do in the afternoon. Li Ahu could hand over the repairs to the pig shed and the goose shed, so he agreed to Lu Chi.
