The downside of high prices was that those who spent more money would spend more. But the upside was that those who spent more money would earn more as well.
Chen Xiaobei was thinking that if he could get Uzuishi Akaika to come here and open a top-notch restaurant, Uzuishi Akaika could charge a few thousand Spiritual Stones for a meal.
He might even attract the attention of the Silver Plume nobles. When that happened, he could even sell a table for tens of thousands of Spiritual Stones.
Just the thought of it was enough to make Chen feel really good.
"What are you thinking about again?" Liu Chen stared at Chen Xiaobei.
"Nothing. I was just thinking about a friend. He's one of the top chefs on earth!" Chen Xiaobei said.
"Why? You want to open a restaurant here? "
Liu Chen smiled. "I'm not trying to discourage you but no matter how good the chefs on earth are, they don't know how to prepare galactic ingredients! Sister Hua is such a smart person but she had to study it for years before she could cook! "
"Is it really that bad?" Chen Xiaobei asked, shocked.
"What Liu Chen said is true."
Ning Yuchen nodded. "If any chef can make galactic food, the governor of Silver Plume would have died a long time ago!"
"The governor of Silver Plume? What about him? "Chen Xiaobei asked.
"Don't you know?
Liu Chen said, "The governor of Silver Plume City is a super glutton. He goes to 1st Street once a month! On that day, no matter who it is, they can go and offer him delicious food! If the governor is satisfied with their food, they will be rewarded handsomely! "
"Foodie? Reward? "Chen was taken aback. All of a sudden, he recalled many things that happened in the past.
He remembered that he had become good friends with the King of Hell because he was an old foodie.
There were also the people from the Three Realms Red Envelope Group. It was because Chen Xiaobei satisfied their stomachs first that they gave him a bunch of magical Red Envelopes.
Chen suddenly had an idea when he thought of Yanwang. He grinned evilly and said, "Bro Ning, do you think the governor will like a packet of spicy sticks?"
One should know that Chen had used spicy sticks to make Yanwang fall head over heels for him, giving him whatever he wanted.
However, as soon as he said that, everyone around him had a nervous look on their faces.
"What's wrong with you guys? Why are you all looking at me like that? Is there a flower on my face? "Chen was confused.
Ning Yuchen said in a serious tone, "In Silver Plume City, don't ever mention the word Spicy Sticks! It's a big taboo!"
"Ah? Why was that? Did the spicy sticks offend anyone? "Chen was speechless.
"Many years ago, there was an earthling who played the same trick as you. He gave a packet of spicy sticks to the governor of Silver Plume City and bragged about it as a rare delicacy!"
Ning Yuchen said, "In the beginning, the governor really liked to eat spicy sticks. He treated them like a treasure. He would only eat half a stick every meal!"
"The person who offered the Spicy Strips was rewarded handsomely. He was even allowed to marry a noble lady and move into the inner city!"
Upon hearing that, Chen could not help but praise, "This is really unexpected! Such a good method was actually used by someone else first! What a pity … "
"That's a pity? Listen to what I have to say first, then make your comments! "
Ning Yuchen continued, "Silver Plume Planet has more than one earthling. Soon, someone reported that spicy sticks are junk food from earth that costs 50 cents a pack!"
"Think about it! The governor of Silver Plume City, the governor of Northern Wilderness Starfield! His status was so high! How could he treat junk food that costs 50 cents as a treasure?! In other people's eyes, he was no different from an idiot! "
"The governor of Silver Plume City was humiliated and so, he was furious! The person who offered the spicy sticks was executed by a thousand cuts and his body was thrown into the wilderness for the Demonic Beasts to devour! "
"From then on, no one in the entire Silver Plume Planet dared to mention spicy sticks. Mentioning it was like slapping the governor's face!"
Upon hearing that, Chen Xiaobei was speechless.
Back then, Chen Xiaobei had also bragged about spicy sticks as a rare treasure in the three realms, and used it to exchange for Netherspirit Battlescouter, Hundred Herbs Potion, and other treasures.
In the end, Xiangyu sent the price of the spicy sticks to the group.
At that time, the whole group came out to attack Chen Xiaobei, the number one unscrupulous businessman of the three realms. They wanted to beat Chen Xiaobei to death!
Fortunately, Chen Xiaobei had the Prime of Tongtian to protect him. That was how the commotion was suppressed.
If it was not for this powerful Sifu, Chen Xiaobei would have been kicked out of the group a hundred times over.
It seemed that playing petty tricks was only temporary. If he wanted to last, he would have to rely on his real skills.
Ring ring ring!
Suddenly, Ning Yuchen's phone rang.
After the call connected, he only said a few words before hanging up.
"Back to the barracks! A horde of Demonic Beasts has appeared. It seems like they are approaching the main city. We must stop them immediately! "
Ning Yuchen said and stood up.
After that, they bid farewell to Sister Hua and hurried back to the barracks.
…
At the 2nd Regiment's barracks.
Batch after batch of Northern Wilderness soldiers were sent to the frontline on large flying transport vehicles.
"Why are you guys so late?!"
A middle-aged man with thick eyebrows and big eyes stood at the entrance of the barracks, shouting at Ning Yuchen and the others.
"I'm sorry, sir. We didn't know that there was an urgent mission today!" Ning Yuchen explained.
"Cut the crap! Go change into your combat uniform! This horde of Demonic Beasts is not to be underestimated. We must mobilize the entire army! "The man said.
"Mobilize the entire army? Sir, are you going to do it yourself? "Ning Yuchen asked.
"Of course! Can't you see that I'm wearing my combat uniform? "The man said angrily.
Chen Xiaobei looked at the man and saw that the defensive parts of his combat uniform were all silver!
That was the symbol of a silver-tier elite!
Ding! [Cultivation: Early phase of Celestial Cultivation. Health: 70000. Combat power: 70000!]
Earlier, the Violent Colossal Rhino had mentioned that Chen Xiaobei was a gold-tier elite because Chen Xiaobei's combat power was 90000!
Based on that, for every 10000 combat power in True Nirvana cultivation, the combat power would increase by one rank.
As for Celestial Cultivation, the combat power would increase by one rank for every 20000 combat power. It was even more difficult to do so.
"70000 combat power is enough to make me the commander of a battalion. I wonder what rank I can be with my current combat power?"
Chen Xiaobei thought to himself but did not say anything.
"Sir! What about Zhufeng? "Ning Yuchen asked.
"Him?"
The man said in disdain, "Of course, he will stay at the barracks! I've already told you that this horde of Demonic Beasts is different. Even the Nine-Star Bronze-Ranked Woldemar is dead! He's just a Zero-Star Black Steel. Is he going to deliver breakfast to the Demonic Beasts? "
"Erm … You're right …"
Ning Yuchen nodded and turned to Chen Xiaobei. "Zhufeng, you can stay in my room with Hu Ben. If you're bored, you can go and play with Sister Hua. We'll talk later."
"Alright. I won't cause any more trouble. Go and change into your combat uniform." Chen Xiaobei said.
Ning Yuchen, Hu Ben, and Liu Chen ran back to their room.
"At least you know your place!"
The officer glared at Chen and said in a deep voice, "Behave yourself! If you can reach Three-Star Black Steel as soon as possible, I will make an exception and recruit you into the 2nd Regiment! "
"Thank you for your kindness, sir!"
Chen Xiaobei smiled but in his heart, he did not think much of it.
