Chapter 196 How to Defeat the “Store Manager”
“Don’t worry, Minister, I will complete the task!”
Shen Liang’s response was full of energy, and it is easy for people to like him, Cao Yanhua Likewise, he nodded secretly to Shen Liang's response.
Zhao Jianguo suddenly said: "Minister, I think it is inappropriate for Team Shen to lead the team to the Peace Hotel."
Shen Liang glanced at him and said nothing, but Cao Yanhua had to ask. , "Why, tell me what you think."
Zhao Jianguo said: "According to the existing supernatural files, although the supernatural power of the Peace Hotel can suppress evil ghosts, it can also affect people's hearts. Although the degree of this influence is not high, especially for ghost controllers, as long as they do not live in it every day, The impact on the Peace Hotel will be very small, but it can easily have a big impact on ordinary people. This may be the reason why Professor Wang is unwilling to go to the Peace Hotel."
Wang Xiaoming looked at it indifferently. Zhao Jianguo.
He didn't want to get involved in too many nonsense, but now Zhao Jianguo asked about his professional knowledge. Although he was disgusted, he still gave a professional answer: "That's right. I am very interested in the Peace Hotel and the store. I was very interested, but this kind of supernatural influence on my mind dissuaded me.”
Zhao Jianguo knew that he had offended Wang Xiaoming, but he had no choice but to persist.
Anyway, as long as he is still valuable, such a trivial matter is not a big problem. Just like Yang Jian is valuable enough, Wang Xiaoming can even forget that Yang Jian killed his brother.
Cao Yanhua thought about it and said, "I didn't think well before. Let Li Jun lead the team this time. Team Shen, how about you wait for the information with us at the headquarters?"
"Obey the order!"
There seemed to be no strange color on Shen Liang's face. He was like a good subordinate who completely obeyed the orders of his superiors. This demeanor alone made everyone present look slightly sideways.
Cao Yanhua also admires Shen Liang very much, but it is a pity that Shen Liang is too eager for quick success and wants to use the "dinner party" to force the headquarters. This is wrong.
Since you have done something wrong, you must be responsible.
Now that I have only been slightly vigilant, I can already treat Shen Liang lightly.
"Li Jun, do you have any questions?"
"No problem, I promise to complete the mission!"
Li Jun stood up and gave a military salute without saying too much , but it was very trustworthy, and at this time, the ghost controllers who were watching the show started chatting easily again.
As for the fight between Shen Liang and Zhao Jianguo, perhaps only Chen Yi and Guo Fan, who are at the bottom, will care.
After the leaders' meeting, everyone returned to their own lounges at the headquarters. However, tonight was destined not to be too peaceful. After all, the existence of the Peace Hotel and the "store manager" shocked many people.
Tong Qian also had many invitations, but she refused them all. After returning to her home, she called Cao Yanhua, which surprised Cao Yanhua.
Since Tong Qian was transferred from ZS City to the headquarters to be responsible for matters with the Peace Hotel and the "store manager", her status in the headquarters has been greatly improved, and she also has the authority to contact Cao Yanhua directly. .
However, she was usually very measured and never took the initiative to contact Cao Yanhua, but today she made an exception. She wanted to prevent Cao Yanhua from feeling strange.
“Are there any questions?”
Tong Qian did not show off and said directly: "Deputy Minister, there should be some domestic leaders who have the ability to go to the Peace Hotel. Li Leping from Dachuan City, Ye Zhen from Dahai City, and Wang Chaling from Dadong City , their strength is not weak. If their strength can be enhanced, I believe it will be of great help to the supernatural incidents in the country."
Cao Yanhua sighed, "Tong Qian, what did you say? The strength of the people is good, but the actual situation must be considered. Li Leping is currently looking for Liu Qingqing. If something goes wrong with Liu Qingqing, it will be far more terrifying than an ordinary supernatural incident. Ye Zhen refuses to listen to the announcement and occupies the Dahai City. An acre of land has become a small hill without even obeying the headquarters' orders. If such a person becomes too powerful, it will affect the headquarters' control of the domestic situation. Our country has experienced too many hardships. It took a lot of effort to lead a happy life now, and we can no longer foster a separatist force. Do you understand? The situation of Wang Chaling is similar. The Wang family regards Dadong City as their own territory, although it is not as obvious as Ye Zhen. But it’s not that bad. Tong Qian, you have a good intention, but sometimes you can’t look at things one-sidedly, understand?”
Tong Qian was silent for a long time, “I understand”
After hanging up the phone, Cao Yanhua shook his head helplessly, "Tong Qian is devoted to the public, but she still lacks in thinking about problems. Fortunately, she is not allowed to stay in charge of a city, otherwise there will definitely be big problems in the future."
Zhao Jianguo and Shen Liang looked at each other without answering.
The two captains are currently in a state of competition, and it has entered a fierce stage. The problem must not be too one-sided.
Tong Qian does not belong to either of them. Now whether she is helping Tong Qian to speak or following Cao Yanhua's words, it is easy for the other party to leave an excuse, so she simply pretends not to hear.
Cao Yanhua glanced at him. He didn't know what these two people were thinking, and he didn't bother to say more. "How are the people in charge at the headquarters? I'm afraid it will be very lively tonight, right?"
“After the meeting, they returned to the room, rested for a while, and then started visiting each other. There was no special small team, they all looked normal, but everyone passed by Jiang Shangbai and Xiong Wenwen intentionally or unintentionally.”
"Currently, the circle of friends is a thunderstorm. Fang Shiming was deprived of two ghosts by the 'store manager'. Logically speaking, he should have recovered from the ghost with only one ghost left. But currently, it seems that Jiang Shangbai Although he controls the circle of friends, the person in charge of the circle of friends is still Fang Shiming. He has to find time to find out, otherwise he will always feel uneasy. "
"Understood."
"Report immediately if there is any situation with Cao Yang and Sun Rui."
"Yes, Minister."
The night at the headquarters is always lively. , especially when so many responsible persons are brought together, many of whom are responsible persons from important cities in various places.
For example, Yang Jian’s Dachang City, Su Fan’s Xiangjiang City, Chen Yi’s ZS City, etc.
There are currently no supernatural events in these cities, otherwise they would not have been gathered here by the headquarters.
Yang Jian stayed in his room and did not go around like others, but it was inevitable that someone would come to him. But what he didn't expect was that the first person to come to him would be It's Xiong Wenwen.
"Xiao Yang, you bear..."
Before Xiong Wenwen finished speaking, he was frightened by Yang Jian's cold eyes and swallowed it back, "Xiao Yang, don't scare me, Otherwise, I’ll tell Brother Yuan to take care of you!”
As he said this, he took a step back.
Yang Jian was too lazy to waste time with this little kid. When he was about to close the door, his other hand came over and blocked the door. Yang Jian stared at it and spit out a name: "Jiang Shangbai."
Jiang Shangbai smiled. Said: "Yang Jian, we meet again."
"If nothing happens, I'm going to rest." Yang Jian's face was dull, he didn't want to see Jiang Shangbai at all, or he didn't want to see anyone.
Jiang Shangbai didn't mind either, "I'm going to the Peace Hotel again tomorrow. It's very scary there. If you're not careful, you may be attacked, and even ghosts may be robbed. I think we should help each other. If it's true, If there is an accident, there will be a chance to escape."
Yang Jian glanced at him and then at Xiong Wenwen, "You guys?"
Before Jiang Shangbai could answer, Xiong Wenwen immediately retorted: "It's none of my business. Xiao Jiang is talking about them. I'm just here to make soy sauce."
Although Xiong Wenwen is a bear, he is not stupid.
He knew the situation in the circle of friends very well, and he also knew better where he should stand in order to live well, so he didn’t bother Yang Jian, and turned around and jogged, and soon There was no trace.
A cold light flashed in Jiang Shangbai's eyes, but he still didn't say anything, "I have visited everyone before..."
"What you want to do is your business, no need to Find me.”
Yang Jian didn't give Jiang Shangbai any face at all. He didn't even wait for Jiang Shangbai to finish his words before closing the door directly, which made Jiang Shangbai's forehead veins jump.
"Pfft!"
A low laugh came from afar, Jiang Shangbai immediately turned his head and looked over, "A Hong? Are you laughing at me?"
A Hong shook her head. She didn't want to provoke Jiang Shangbai, but she was not afraid of Jiang Shangbai, because Li Jun was beside her. After seeing Li Jun, Jiang Shangbai snorted and turned away.
Watching Jiang Shangbai’s figure disappear, Li Jun lowered his head and said to A Hong: “He is very dangerous.”
A Hong nodded, "Thank you."
Zhang Lei scratched his head and muttered in his heart, "Have I become a light bulb? No, tonight is not a discussion about the Peace Hotel. "How did it become a love theater?"

[Small Robot Replicator Instruction Manual]
[Variety Description: Ghost Mirror (Red Dressing Mirror) )】
[Variety Ability: When you stare into the abyss, the abyss also stares into you. This is a small robot replicator. You only need to place the person to be copied in front of the ghost mirror for a period of time to create a robot of the same size. Due to technical reasons, the copied robot will think that it is the original body, and will have the ultimate goal of erasing the original body until it is destroyed. 】
[Out of control rating: high. 】
In the Peace Hotel, Lin Yuan played with the red dressing mirror handed over by Zhou Deng, feeling a little disappointed, "This thing has too many side effects. The copied robot actually has self-awareness and thinks he is a real person." You have to kill the main body. Only fools will use this thing, but everything has a correct way to use it. If you encounter an enemy in the future, you can use this thing to trick the opponent."
Consider this red weapon. The dressing mirror had a special effect. Lin Yuan did not put it on the cashier to charge for use. Instead, he put it in his arms and went up to the third floor, directly to the study room that should not exist.
The study room was empty, and Lin Yuan went directly to the display shelf.
There is currently only one collectible item on this display shelf, which is the memory implant instruction manual (ghost newspaper) collected at the Caesar Hotel last time.
This thing is also very dangerous, so it was shelved by Lin Yuan. Now it can be regarded as having a companion.
The night passed like this. In the early morning, Lin Yuan woke up on time, washed up and went downstairs.
It’s amazing to get used to this thing. He was obviously used to Liu Qingqing delivering breakfast every morning, but it had only been two days and he was used to the time without Liu Qingqing delivering breakfast. On the second floor, Lin Yuan happened to meet Li Qingzhi going out. He smiled and said hello, and then came to 201. When he was about to knock on the door, the door opened by itself.
Meng Xiaodong was carrying a vegetable basket, as if he was about to go out to do some shopping, but the doll that was exposed in the basket suddenly shrank back.
"Boss Lin? You're here just in time. The clothes you customized...the clothes have been made. How about you come in and take a look."
Lin Yuan said happily: "So fast? Too much Well, it just so happens that Xiao Yang may be here today. I also said that it may not be in time, but there should be no problem with the quality, right? It’s not that I doubt you, Granny Meng, you are really pressed for time.”
"Understood, but there should be no problem with my craftsmanship. Let's take a look first before talking."
"Okay, okay."
Lin Yuan followed him into the house and saw a beautiful and intellectual young woman sitting on a chair in the center of the living room. Her appearance was somewhat similar to Meng Xiaodong, and she seemed to be what Meng Xiaodong looked like when she was young.
Is there anyone else in the room?
Lin Yuan rubbed his eyes and found that the figure had disappeared. He couldn't help but shook his head mockingly, "You must be missing a woman, right?"
Meng Meng was behind him. Xiao Dong secretly wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.
It is naturally impossible for Lin Yuan to have hallucinations. That figure was herself summoned by Meng Xiaodong from a certain timeline in order to suppress the "clothes" she made.
The disappearance of this figure also indicates that the "clothes" are freed from oppression.
On the chair, the neatly folded clothes suddenly began to twist strangely, and continued to fade, as if they were about to disappear.
Meng Xiaodong immediately pointed at it and said: "Boss Lin, this is the dress."
The word "clothes" is a strong one!
Lin Yuan looked over, and the "clothes" that were still undergoing strange changes froze instantly, maintaining a strange shape, as if there were threads holding its corners, but it was not so neat. , looks a bit messy.
The missing part also reappeared, and finally fell softly back onto the chair, turning back into an ordinary... piece of clothing.
Lin Yuan stepped forward and lifted the "clothes" up, and directly checked the specific information with his "golden finger":
[Customized clothes (made by world-renowned producer Meng Xiaodong) )]
[Variety description: Ghost Robe]
[Variety ability: Has considerable defense power and can resist a certain degree of damage. It has certain exploration capabilities. If there are handprints or footprints in the area covered by clothes or wiped, the target person or object can be analyzed through the built-in small calculator. It has strong adhesive force, even if your limbs are broken, as long as you wear it under this piece of clothing, it can still be used as before. However, as a work of a world-renowned producer, it also has its own temper. If you are too weak, you must not wear it, otherwise it will easily choke you. 】
[Out of control evaluation: high. 】
【Recommended selling price: seven yuan. 】
Lin Yuan raised his eyebrows slightly, "Mother Meng, your craftsmanship is pretty good. Although it has some flaws, it has so many functions. It also incorporates high-tech computing technology and has completely kept up with the development of the times. No wonder you are A world-renowned producer, that’s amazing!”
“Thank you, boss”
Meng Xiaodong responded humbly, but he was confused and couldn’t understand what it meant. High-tech computing technology has been added," but he didn't dare to ask more questions.
Seeing that Lin Yuan was satisfied, she did not hesitate, pointed to a corner and said: "Boss, there is also your... hand warmer."
Lin Yuan nodded, walked over and picked up the ghost stove on the ground. He stood up and said with a smile: "Seeing that the weather is about to enter winter, I am still a little unaccustomed to not having this thing."
"Haha, yes, yes."
Meng Xiaodong catered to him for a while , but the corners of his eyes kept twitching.
Even with her strength, she needed to take some measures to use this ghost stove with confidence, but Lin Yuan could just pick it up and bake it.
However, Lin Yuan even put his hand into the fire of the ghost stove. The flames that could burn supernatural beings were unable to cause any harm to Lin Yuan.
The gap in strength is too big!
"I accepted the clothes first. This is the reward."
Lin Yuan handed the three-yuan ghost note to Meng Xiaodong. Although he was a little reluctant to part with it, he can be stingy in business. , but you must not break your promise. Once you lose your credibility, who will be willing to do business with you?
Lin Yuan is stingy... Bah!
Lin Yuan was a bit more frugal, but he didn't break his promise just for a few dollars.
Meng Xiaodong was not polite. After taking the ghost money, he went downstairs with Lin Yuan, then went to the door and took the bus to leave. By this time, Tong Qian, He Yuelian and Xianglan had already arrived at the store and started working. .
Tong Qian had already called Lin Yuan last night to talk about today's dinner party, so she started preparing the dishes as soon as she arrived at the store.
He Yuelian took the twins to clean the house, although there was actually nothing to clean.
Lin Yuan was eager to see it. After all, this was the first time the hotel had such a big order since it opened. He couldn't help but look forward to it. "In business, you still have to work with the relevant departments. Once you make a deal, it will be a big order, but related The department is prone to default, so we need to make it clear later to avoid exposing the truth.”
Just as I was thinking about it, a figure appeared in the white mist, and soon came to the door of the hotel, shouting carelessly: "Boss, let's eat! If you have any good wine or food, bring them all to me!"
Ye Zhen?
The corner of Lin Yuan's mouth twitched, thinking it was a big order coming, but he didn't expect it was this cosplayer, and he was also a fake rich second generation, the kind who almost listened to Bawang's song last time.
With a big order from the relevant department, Lin Yuan did not look down on him. After all, mosquito legs are still meat no matter how small they are. But dealing with these cosplayers, especially those with severe chuunibyou, is... It's really a headache.
Lin Yuan waved He Yuelian over, "You are now the acting lobby manager, and you have to learn to deal with these things. Go ahead, the dishes he ordered will also be counted as your tasks."
He Yuelian nodded, she was already used to life in the Peace Hotel.
Although it is very dangerous here, and terrifying beings such as ghost controllers and ghosts are always around, but now that two aliens have become her subordinates, what is there to be afraid of?
Even if there is real danger, the "store manager" will not let anyone hurt him.
With this thought in mind, He Yuelian stepped forward to greet Ye Zhen. After a while, she took the menu and went to the kitchen to find Tong Qian and asked Tong Qian to prepare the dishes.
Ye Zhen suddenly came to the cashier, "Boss, I want to use this wish lucky cat."
"Okay, as long as you give me the money, you can use it whatever you want." Lin Yuan didn't mind. It was a business without capital anyway, but he didn't think Ye Zhen could be very rich.
If I really had money, I wouldn’t have thought about getting a loan last time.
However, what surprised Lin Yuan was that Ye Zhen actually took out seven or eight gold boxes from his arms and placed them directly on the cashier. After glancing at Lin Yuan without leaving any trace, he said carelessly : "I just ordered three dishes and one soup. Let's put four here first."
Holy crap!
Really rich second generation?
Lin Yuan suddenly became energetic. Regardless of the death of the game character on the computer screen, the "Heroes please try again" interface popped up, and he quickly opened the gold box and checked it.
There are some small animals inside, but although the animals are small, they are worth three yuan in the "Gold Finger" evaluation, which is enough value.
Lin Yuan laughed and said: "Master Ye has gained a lot recently!"
"Haha! Not bad, hahahaha! Let's not talk about it for now. Let me make a wish first. Look." Ye Zhen suddenly felt refreshed and opened a gold box.
The moment the box was opened, an eagle rushed out, its gleaming talons heading straight for Ye Zhen's face.
"Presumptuous!"
Ye Zhen's face darkened, and he grabbed the eagle's neck directly with the claws of his right hand, and then stuffed it into the big mouth of the lucky cat without hesitation.
The mouth is obviously not big, only the size of a human fist at most.
But such a normal-sized eagle can be inserted without any hindrance. The picture looks a bit strange, but no one thinks there is a problem, including He Yuelian.
Poof!
The wishing lucky cat spit out a piece of paper, and Ye Zhen directly picked up the pen and started writing. At the same time, he said: "Boss Lin, they all say that Da Yin hides in the city. I used to think that was nonsense, but until I met Boss Lin You didn’t realize the importance of this sentence until later. Therefore, what I want to make now is to know how to defeat you so that I can become the best in the world.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Ye Shinya put down his pen, stuffed the note with written wishes back into the Wish Lucky Cat's mouth, and then stared at the other person nervously.
Lin Yuan was dumbfounded, "I'm afraid Ye Daxia may have misunderstood. I'm just an ordinary restaurant owner. I'm not that powerful. Even if you want to challenge, you have to challenge those masters."
Unfortunately, Ye Zhen was unmoved, "Boss Lin, you don't need to say more. You must have concerns about living in seclusion here. I am dedicated to fighting against the strong and will not destroy your ambition." Life will not tell those irrelevant people about your whereabouts."
Lin Yuan sighed.
I'm afraid this kid has gone crazy. He called himself "my king" last time and "hero" this time. He also kept claiming that he was a hidden master and that he had to defeat himself to become the best in the world.
Huh?
Lin Yuan wanted to find another reason to refuse, but he quickly realized, "Is this an opportunity to make money?"
It was also at this time that the wish to attract wealth got stuck for a long time. The cat finally spit out a new note, which read: "The way to defeat the 'store manager' is..."
