After reading a few popular biological books for a long time, Ling Ping'an felt a little dizzy in his head.
The genera, classes, families, and genera made his head hurt.
He couldn't tell them apart.
This was innate.
He wasn't very good at distinguishing and learning these things that needed to be systematically organized and digested.
Because he couldn't tell them apart and couldn't remember them!
He still couldn't figure them out. This was the most obvious evidence!
Mathematics and geometry only knew the most basic things.
They were probably the ones that could barely be used daily.
As for the rest, he couldn't understand them at all, nor could he remember them.
"Let's watch documentaries!" He put down the book and rubbed his temples.
It was much better to watch documentaries.
Especially those interesting documentaries.
Hmm...
They were mainly documentaries about civil subjects.
Ling Ping'an turned on his computer and entered a video website. Then, he clicked on documentaries one by one. Nature was the most popular.
Then, he found many popular documentaries.
"101 Moments in the History of Evolution", "The Unknown Secrets of Animals", "The Insect War"...
They were basically documentaries that were more entertainment than academic.
Ling Ping'an first clicked on "101 Moments in the History of Evolution". This was a documentary that had a great influence in the Federal Empire.
Although it had always been criticized by the orthodox academic community.
They thought that it was a work that was fabricated, sensationalized, and exaggerated.
But the people of the Federal Empire liked it very much.
The people of the world liked it even more. Therefore, this documentary had been translated into hundreds of languages and spread to the entire world.
It took him almost three hours to finish watching the documentary.
Ling Ping'an felt deeply inspired.
Although he also knew that many of the claims in this documentary were not tenable at all.
But he was only here to find inspiration, try it in the game, and then write it into the novel.
Anyway, who would take games and novels seriously?
Therefore, he continued to watch with great interest.
He watched until night time when his stomach was growling. Only then did he turn off the player.
He raised his head and looked at the time.
"It's almost ten o'clock!" The hungry bookstore owner took out his phone and looked at it. Chiba Michiko's takeout shop had already closed.
At this time, the shops that were still open were basically night snack shops.
Ling Ping'an held his phone and looked at the shops one by one.
He began to select very carefully.
The main reason was that he was too picky. If the taste was not good, he would rather starve than eat.
He had tried in the past.
When he ordered takeout, if the taste wasn't right, he would throw it away.
He would rather starve than let his mouth and taste buds suffer.
He was just that stubborn!
Therefore, he had his own set of standards when choosing takeout.
Unlike the others, he rarely looked at the reviews of the food delivery stores — that could be changed.
Most of the time, the number of orders had nothing to do with the quality of the food!
Ling Ping'an had his own experience in choosing takeout.
First of all, the location of the takeaway shop had to be a little more remote. It would be best if it was hidden in an old neighborhood where outsiders wouldn't know and wouldn't be able to find it.
Secondly, the dishes provided must be unique.
It couldn't be the kind that could be found on the streets.
Finally, he looked at the photos of the dishes. They weren't photos posted by the store, but photos sent by the customers.
It had to look appetizing!
For food, appearance was also a form of combat power!
Ling Ping'an had used this method to find Chiba Michiko's Fusang beef rice.
As it turned out, this method was quite good.
However, it would take a long time.
With an empty stomach, Ling Ping'an searched through the takeout app one by one and eliminated them one by one!
There was nothing he could do. Most takeout shops were based on quantity.
They mainly focused on good quality and cheap prices...
To Ling Ping'an, such a shop was destined to have no fate with him!
Suddenly, a familiar shop name came into view.
Little Ke's Delicacies!
Ling Ping'an remembered the squid whiskers that the young man in sunglasses had sent over last time.
He couldn't help but drool a little.
Unfortunately, that shop seemed to have encountered a problem and caught fire. What a pity!
"Is it that shop?" As Ling Ping'an thought about it, he clicked on the inside page of the shop. Then, he saw the introduction written by the owner of the shop: Dear customers, this shop has just opened. All kinds of dishes are supplied and made according to fate. Please place your order carefully.
"Eh!" Ling Ping'an was surprised. "So arrogant?"
Thus, he pulled it down to the evaluation area.
He only saw a few comments.
However, every comment was full of bootlicking, praising the various delicacies in the shop!
"I've never eaten such a crispy and soft octopus!"
"It's so delicious! Ahhhhhh! I strongly recommend it! "
"This shop should be selected as the business card of Jiangcheng City!"
Beautiful pictures of the delicacies were also uploaded to the comment area by these guys.
It could be seen that these were basically the comments of the restaurant.
Ling Ping'an returned to the shop page and looked at the price of the dishes.
The signature spicy squid cost 50 yuan per dish.
The signature spicy octopus feet cost 25 yuan per dish.
The signature pig trotters cost 28 yuan per dish.
The beef cost 50 yuan per dish.
… …
They all looked very expensive, and the unit price was far higher than that of the shop by 50% to 150%!
But...
This was the right thing to do!
Because, in the food and beverage industry, there were no good things for cheap, and good things were not cheap!
A takeout that cost more than ten yuan per serving, if one thought about it carefully, would definitely not taste good!
Now, it was no longer the era of chaos in the takeout industry.
The subsidies of capital had long gone.
It was no longer possible to eat takeout that cost dozens of yuan for a few yuan like in the past.
On the contrary, capital was slowly tightening the shackles.
Squeezing out the merchants and users bit by bit.
The merchants who were forced to the point of no choice could only choose to pass the cost on to the customers.
Therefore, it was normal for the merchants to pay a higher price.
When Ling Ping'an saw this, he no longer hesitated and immediately placed the order.
He ordered squid tentacles in one hand, beef in the other, and half a pig trotter in the other.
After a while, his phone rang, notifying him that the merchant had accepted the order.
At this time, Ling Ping'an realized that this shop was actually delivering food by itself, just like Michiko Chiba's family!
This made Ling Ping'an's expectations for him a little higher.
However …
"This shop is on Xincheng Road..." Ling Ping'an thought, "It'll take at least an hour to deliver it here..."
Xincheng Road was in the area of the high-tech industrial park in the north of the city.
It was the key development area of Jiangcheng City and also the brand-new city center!
In contrast, the area where Ling Ping'an's family was located was the old city area that had been built more than a hundred years ago. It was a place of heavy industry and intensive processing industry. It was the watchman of the old era.
The two were separated by the Jiangcheng River.
It would take at least an hour!
Therefore, the owner of the bookstore, who was a little hungry, had to go upstairs and take out two bottles of juice from the fridge.
He gulped it down, temporarily appeasing his hungry stomach.
Then, he walked downstairs and looked at his phone. The takeout platform showed that his order was still being processed.
"Let's watch TV," he said, and turned it on.
It happened to be the evening news.
"News from this station: Peter City, the capital of the Lossia Empire, is in turmoil tonight. It is suspected that the rebels have entered Peter City..."
The scene of armored vehicles driving into an unfamiliar city appeared on the television.
"The Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Lossia Empire has not issued a statement for the time being!"
"But according to reliable sources... the coup should be started by the supporters of the Lossia Decembrists!"
"In this regard, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Federal Empire has issued a statement calling on all parties to remain calm and not to trigger a civil war!"
Ling Ping'an's mouth was wide open as he watched.
Lossia...
A strange and familiar neighboring country.
It was strange because it was a country that was almost invisible in the news of the Federal Empire.
In all his life, in Ling Ping'an's memory, this country had only appeared in the news about ten times!
The reason it was familiar was because this country had produced countless literary giants in its history!
This was an irresistible attraction to the Federal Empire!
After all, the people of the Empire were born with a good impression of literary people.
The people of the Empire had pursued three immortality since ancient times.
Virtue, meritorious service, and speech.
The first two were too difficult!
Speech was relatively easier, but it was not that easy.
This was because, traditionally, the so-called speech had to be known by everyone.
Moreover, at the same time, the articles you wrote had to have ideological value and educational significance!
Just like Li Du's articles, just like the eight great families of the Tang and Song Dynasties!
Under this standard, in the past hundred years, only a few people in the entire Federal Empire had met this standard!
And the literary heroes of the Lossia Empire, even by the standards of the Federal Empire, were people who could speak!
Tolstoy's famous works, "War and Peace" and "Resurrection", had once set off a reading frenzy in the Federal Empire!
Even today, it was still the favorite foreign literary work of the literati of the Federal Empire!
Turgenev's "Father and Son" also had a profound influence!
The existence of these great literary heroes made the Federal Empire always have an inexplicable good impression of their northern neighbor.
After all, although scholars despised each other.
But everyone loved the dead great literary heroes!
"Decembrists..." Ling Ping'an listened to this unfamiliar term in the news and couldn't help but pick up his phone to check.
Then, his mouth opened even wider.
This was because the encyclopedia on his phone showed that the so-called Decembrists were a failed revolution launched by the Lossia nobles who were influenced by the Fran Emperor and the ideas spread from the Federal Empire two hundred years ago.
Although the Decembrists failed, the knowledgeable people of the Lossia Empire still came forward one after another.
"A revolution that lasted for two hundred years..."
"The perseverance of the Lossia people is really strong!" Ling Ping'an sighed.
… …
Sitting in the spacious living room.
Integral looked at the television that was broadcasting the situation in Peter City, the capital of Lossia, on the network cable that was specially pulled from the consulate.
"Pull one hair and it will affect the whole body..."
"The famous saying of the East is indeed accurate!" The young duchess sighed like an adult.
"Yes..." Alucard, who was in her scepter, also sighed, "The Lossia Empire has been supported by Duke Ivy for two hundred years!"
"Now that Ivy has fallen... the pillar is gone, everything will naturally be over!"
The decadent dynasty that the Decembrists had worked hard for two hundred years but had not been overthrown was about to be overthrown in less than a week after Ivy's fall.
Moreover...
Judging from the current situation, the uprising this time was actually a drunken officer who shouted in the camp.
Then, the entire army mutiny.
Then, they drove into Petersburg.
Emperor Lossia had already fled!
The fortress that had supported the east of the Land of Qin for two hundred years collapsed with a loud bang!
This would definitely bring about a series of chain reactions!
For a moment, the entire living room was terrifyingly silent!
Because, when the rabbit died, the fox grieved for its kind!
The Lossia Empire collapsed because of Duke Ivy.
Then...
If Alucard fell here, where would the United Kingdom of Britannia go?
The duchess was very clear!
The number of rebels and traitors in the United Kingdom was no less than that of Lossia!
… …
It was out of Ling Ping'an's expectations.
He only waited for half an hour at most before a motorcycle stopped at the door.
A young man wearing glasses knocked on the door with a bag of takeout boxes.
"Hello..." The young man politely handed the box over. "Your takeout!"
Ling Ping'an immediately turned off the television and walked forward.
He looked at the young man. He felt that this young man seemed to be the owner of the Little Ke Seafood Shop from last time.
He took the takeout box and asked, "Sir, did you open a seafood takeout shop on the other side of the river in the past?"
The other party smiled and nodded. "Customer, your memory is really good!"
Ling Ping'an immediately smiled. He opened the takeout box and the fragrant smell of squid whiskers made his appetite stir!
It was still the same smell!
Therefore, he couldn't help but ask, "Sir, why didn't you open your shop on the other side of the river?"
"Sigh..." the young man shook his head. "My family is unfortunate!"
"Because of some things, my half-brother and I have some conflicts..."
"Oh..." Ling Ping'an nodded. "No wonder!"
This kind of internal conflict in a family was usually very troublesome!
After all, the tradition of the Federal Empire still advocated brotherhood and respect.
Many families, no matter how big the conflict was, they still had to welcome each other with a smile!
Ling Ping'an couldn't ask further. He looked at his lunch box and was surprised to find that there was actually a golden fish egg.
"Why is there so much?" Ling Ping'an picked up the box of fish eggs and asked.
"This is a gift!" The young man said with a smile.
"Oh!" Ling Ping'an nodded and didn't care.
After all, a commodity like fish eggs was still quite cheap.
After all, the entire Pacific Ocean was the inner lake of the Federal Empire!
Therefore, he smiled and nodded at the young man. "Thank you for your hard work, sir!"
"It's not hard at all!" The other party smiled and bowed. Then, he said, "Customer, please enjoy. I'll take my leave first!"
"Please!" Ling Ping'an cupped his hands.
He watched as the other party got on his motorcycle and sped away.
Ling Ping'an opened the lunch box, sat at the counter, and ate a mouthful of squid whiskers!
His eyes immediately lit up!
"Delicious!" Ling Ping'an praised, "It's really delicious!"
That young man's cooking skills seemed to have improved a lot again!
Therefore, the hungry bookstore owner wiped out all the food at the speed of a tornado!
Then, he patted his stomach and leaned back comfortably in his chair. "Delicious! Delicious! "
He added that shop to his collection.
Then, he saw the price of this order. Including the delivery fee, it was a total of 140 yuan!
"Sigh..." the bookstore owner, who was short of money, sighed. "It's delicious, but you can't eat it often!"
He couldn't afford it if he ate it often!
