Lin Jie was sitting behind the counter as usual. Hearing this, he froze for a moment and then looked at Andrew who was respectfully handing over a blood-red gemstone with both hands. He felt a bit embarrassed.
His mouth twitched and couldn't help but silently complain in his heart, "Zerom is dead, how can you bring him back?"
"Unless you want to see him if he is alive or dead. But what you brought back isn't Zerom's corpse, but a Philosopher's Stone that is suspected to be made by the Road of Fire Sword."
But …
Since Zerom was dead, even if he didn't complete the task he asked Andrew to do, it would be a bit embarrassing for the vice president of the Truth Society who had made a solemn vow at that time.
This Philosopher's Stone, as the evidence of the Road of Fire Sword's crime, seemed to represent the dead Zerom to a certain extent.
Therefore, he naturally said that the Philosopher's Stone was Zerom. This was definitely a deliberate "slip of the tongue" to arouse his astonishment and make him smile, completely eliminating the original trace of awkwardness.
He didn't expect Vice President Andrew to have a sense of humor.
Since the vice president didn't want to mention this embarrassing matter, Lin Jie naturally went with the flow and continued this humor.
Lin Jie looked at Andrew with a bit of realization in his eyes. He smiled without changing his expression and said, "Thank you for your hard work. Sorry to trouble you to make this trip …"
As expected of someone who could become the vice president, he had some skills. Remember this: http://m.9biquge.com
Previously, he personally came to apologize and gave gifts for Hood and the other naughty kids without any arrogance. Now, he cleverly resolved this embarrassment with a sincere attitude. He didn't seem like a customer of the bookstore at all, but more like a servant … Is this the way to win people's hearts?
I have to say, it's quite comfortable.
Lin Jie's mind was in a mess. He put down the milk tea cup in his hand and took the shining gemstone.
Andrew secretly sighed in relief. He thought that Boss Lin's "bringing Zerom here" really meant that he was going to present the Philosopher's Stone refined by this guy.
Speaking of which … this thing was deliberately placed here. Was it to show goodwill to Boss Lin?
It seemed that the Road of Fire Sword was also very afraid of Boss Lin. He just didn't know what Boss Lin's attitude towards this mysterious and terrifying organization that suddenly appeared was.
While thinking, he sat down on the tall stool in front of the counter. His eyes couldn't help but be attracted by the drink that he had never seen before.
Milk and black tea. Although there were some differences, it was still the same way of making milk tea. It was often seen in daily life. However, using tapioca flour to make balls and then adding them into milk tea … She had never seen such a novel combination.
While Andrew was a scholar, he was also a nobleman who never got tired of delicacies. He had never cut back on his pursuit of enjoyment.
It could be said that A Zier was sick of most of the food, no matter how rare or precious it was.
However, he had never seen such a drink before. As he stared at the milk tea, a large amount of information flowed into him in an instant. The taste and taste of the milk tea had been simulated by his brain.
It was very interesting and novel.
Andrew didn't know why, but when he looked at the transparent milk tea, he felt that the black pearls inside the milk tea were like pitch-black rolling eyeballs …
After looking at it for a long time, he faintly felt a little dazed and trembling. It was really scary.
However, only this kind of drink would suit Boss Lin's taste, right?
He fell into silence for a while, deep in thought.
Lin Jie raised his eyebrows when he saw Andrew staring at his milk tea. He picked up the cup and shook it. "The book cafe's special pearl milk tea will be on sale today. If you're interested, you can go next door and buy a cup to try. Maybe you'll be surprised."
That's right, the book cafe finally had a new business item — pearl milk tea.
Lin Jie had been fiddling with this thing for a few weeks. After all, if the book cafe wanted to gain more advantages, it needed to be unique in its operation. Just the decoration and the actual content were far from enough.
Therefore, Lin Jie focused on the drink.
After all, it was a product that was popular in the streets and alleys of his previous life, attracting countless young people and internet celebrities. In this world with a high degree of similarity, there was a high probability that it would work.
However, Lin Jie didn't drink those fancy milk teas and didn't know how to make them. However, he had a basic understanding of the classic style of pearl milk tea.
Plus, there was the omnipotent little classmate Mo En. After Lin Jie roughly described it, she directly succeeded in making a prototype after a few experiments.
According to market research, which was to let the priests of the Sun God Sect help to try the taste, slowly adjusting it to a taste that was acceptable to the general public.
Today, it was officially on sale.
Although with Andrew's age and experience, he shouldn't like desserts like milk tea, since he happened to be here today, Lin Jie of course spared no effort to attract business … He believed that Andrew, who was humorous and knew how to conduct himself, would take care of the book cafe's business.
Lin Jie smiled and didn't say anything.
But in fact, Andrew was simply flattered. He immediately nodded and said excitedly, "It's my honor to work for Mr. Lin."
He felt that after this trip, he had become more of a lackey.
Having said that, perhaps this was the power of books. The book 'Fantastic Journey of Young Muyang' seemed to really let the vice president find his destiny. His expression was very firm and confident.
Lin Jie continued to smile, and said in a warm and friendly voice, "You don't have to be so restrained, every customer is my best friend, we can also get along and talk as friends."
Andrew said respectfully, "I understand, Mr. Lin."
No, you understand my ass …
The corners of Lin Jie's eyes twitched, and finally he sighed. Playing with the ruby in his hand, he muttered, "Zerom committed a heinous crime and deserved to die … but he should have died in the court of justice, not in private punishment. The Road of Fire Sword may have chosen to kill him directly in order to keep it a secret and prevent him from continuing to expose himself."
"As for this secret, it's estimated that there are other spies in the Truth Society. I suggest you take action early, so that the spies don't get ahead of you."
The Philosopher's Stone refined by Zerom slowly rotated on the fingertips of the owner of the bookstore, refracting a faint colorful light. "And Prima's sister, I think you should act as soon as possible. Otherwise, if you can't handle it, why don't you go to the Yue Sefu?"
Lin Jie raised his head and looked at Andrew with a smile.
Lin Jie could understand that the Truth Society didn't want to wash their dirty linen in public, but after all, they were professionals.
Andrew's face turned pale.
