132: Chapter 132: Are you thinking about peach?
After signing the agreent and settling everything, Mr.
Chilom grandly instructed his company mbers to hand over five million to Yang Yu.
He tightly clutched the hefty bag of Gold Coin and glanced at the soaring numbers on his system, struggling to restrain himself from bursting into laughter.
This deal was even more of a windfall than getting sothing for nothing.
Yang Yu could already imagine Lao Ganma or other profound Chinese Cuisine blossoming everywhere in this world.
At night, a lord who diligently managed his territory would return ho, where maid after maid would bring out exquisite dishes to the table; and when unveiled—Lao Ganma, stinky tofu, marinated eggs, roast duck—each presented in a manner too expensive for others to afford.
Biting into that stinky tofu, juice would flow everywhere, its fragrance filling the air.
The lord could not help but exclaim, “Delicious, delicious.”
It achieved a true blend of elegance and popular appeal.
Yang Yu could hardly wait to draw so pieces of stinky tofu and give them to Chilom.
After all, stinky tofu would surely be categorized as a junk prize, and with his luck, as long as he drew a sufficient quantity, he was bound to get so.
“Let’s conclude for today, Mr.
Chilom.
It was really delightful talking with you.
I have so things to take care of and will not disturb you any further.”
Saying this polite remark, Yang Yu stood up.
The money issue had been resolved; what remained was to take Bai Jin to sign up, then have her study diligently until the entrance exam started.
“I won’t see you out.
Rember our agreent, once you find food from the Otherworld, co find imdiately, or contact my company to send them over.”
Mr.
Chilom rubbed his hands together, eager to attempt making the items Yang Yu had just described.
However, he had hardly stood up when a bodyguard quickly approached him and whispered sothing in his ear.
Mr.
Chilom furrowed his brow.
“Just tell her I’m busy today and can’t et.”
The bodyguard displayed an expression of difficulty; under normal circumstances, he would have relayed Chilom’s words, but today’s visitor was no ordinary person.
“Lord Chilom, I think it might not be very nice to leave soone hanging like this.
After all, the visitor is from the Royal Family.”
“I said no!
Can’t you see I’m busy heading to the kitchen!” Chilom shouted.
“Go and turn her away.”
No sooner had Chilom finished speaking than the tightly closed doors of the dining room slowly opened.
The afternoon sunlight stread through the doorway, extending the silhouette of a graceful young girl.
Almost everyone’s gaze was stolen by her figure.
Her fluffy auburn hair draped over her pristine shoulders, and she wore a red evening gown adorned with various delicate ribbons, her eyes sparkling like rubies in the backlight.
She held a folded fan in her hand, now opened to cover her delicate lips.
“Uncle Chilom, I heard everything you just said.
It’s rare for to visit, yet you leave outside handling other guests…
and even after finishing with them, you still don’t plan to see ?
That doesn’t seem very polite, does it?”
Out of curiosity, Yang Yu quickly glanced at the attribute panel.

As the sole top chef of the Luoze Empire, it wasn’t surprising that Chilom had connections with the Royal Family.
Lady Latis’s gaze swept over Yang Yu and Iyas, ultimately settling on the expressionless Chilom.
Chilom sighed deeply, “Third Princess Latis, long ti no see.
What brings you here?”
As if in her own ho, Latis walked into the restaurant, “Uncle Chilom, there’s no need for such formality.
You’ve taken great care of in the past, just call Lady Latis as before.”
“I wouldn’t dare.
You are the lofty Third Princess, and I’m just a humble chef.
And please, stop calling Uncle Grom, just refer to as Mr.
Chilom.”
“Mr.
Chilom…
uncle, I won’t say more.” Calling Chilom ‘uncle’ once again, Latis made her purpose clear, “Today, I ca here to invite you to my residence.
As a citizen of the Luoze Empire, you should at least visit the official residency of your own country, right?”
“If everyone in the Luoze Empire visited you, I doubt you could handle it.
So people not visiting might actually be sparing you so trouble.”
Latis was clearly trying to butter him up, but Chilom didn’t seem too fond of her.
Interesting, there must have been sothing between these two.
Yang Yu loved a good confrontation, and he wished he could grab a stool, eat so popcorn, and excitedly shout “666” while watching.
But just as Yang Yu thought to stop and watch, Latis’s gaze fell on him again.
It was as if she was seeking help.
Did the princess think that just because I could get along well with Chilom, I could also diate her relationship with him?
No.
I an, Princess, you’ve been watching for so long, and no task has popped up on my system.
Do you think because you are the princess, assisting you should be considered a great honor and thus you refuse to give a reward?
After having the system for quite so ti, Yang Yu had figured out a lot about the system’s task issuing peculiarities.
Tasks generally fell into two categories: system-issued tasks and NPC-provided tasks.
System tasks appeared as long as conditions were t and rewards were automatically credited with a simple click after completion.
NPC tasks had to be accepted from and submitted to NPCs, and since NPCs behaved like real people, there was substantial freedom, even a risk of punishnt from the system if one secured an advance in paynt from NPCs.
Yang Yu hadn’t tried bargaining with NPCs yet.
From his experience, accepting an NPC task required a crucial precondition: “If you can satisfy a certain condition, I’ll give you a certain reward.”
aning if an NPC didn’t want to give a reward or couldn’t actually provide one, there were no tasks available.
Accordingly, it made sense why Yang Yu hadn’t received tasks from Bai Jin and Iyas.
When Yang Yu t them, they were financially distressed and had nothing to offer him, not unless they were to offer themselves!
Though now, there wasn’t much difference in that, was there?
But they were them.
For you, a princess of a nation, to expect my help for free was crossing the line.
I’m telling you, you’re just daydreaming.
If you want my help, at least show so sincerity.
I’m not asking for much, one or two million should be within your reach, right?
Disdaining Latis’s expectation that the horse should run without eating grass, Yang Yu decided not to keep watching and started walking towards the door.
Just then, a huge blue mage hat appeared from the other side of the door, and a silver-haired girl slowly peeked out.
