I Really Am Not The Lord of Demon Chapter 205 - Little Ke’s Delicacies

Chapter 205: Little Ke’s Delicacies

After reading a few biology books for a long time, Ling Pingan felt a little dizzy.
The Kingdom, Class, Order, Family, and Genus classifications hurt his brain.
He couldn’t tell the difference.
He was born with it.
He wasn’t very good at distinguishing and learning these things that needed to be systematized and digested.
Because he couldn’t tell the difference, he couldn’t remember them!
The fact that he still could not understand the North, South, East, and West was the most obvious evidence!
He only knew the most basic things about mathematics and geometry.
They were probably the ones that could barely be used daily.
As for the rest, he could not understand them at all, nor could he remember them.
“Let’s just watch a documentary!” He put down his book and said while rubbing his temples.
It was much better to watch a documentary.
Especially those interesting documentaries.
Hmm…
Mainly documentaries in the civil category.
Ling Pingan turned on his computer and entered a video website. Then, he opened the documentaries one by one. The Nature category the trending.
Then, he found many very popular documentaries.
“A hundred and one moments in the history of evolution”, “The secret of animals”, “Insect wars”…
They were mostly documentaries that were more entertaining than academic.
Ling Pingan first clicked on “A hundred and one moments in the history of evolution”. That was a documentary that had a great influence on the Federal Empire.
Although it had been criticized by the orthodox academic circles.
They thought that it was a work of fabrications, sensationalism, and exaggeration.
However, the majority of the people of the Federal Empire liked it very much.
The people of the world liked it, even more, so the documentary had been translated into hundreds of languages and spread to the entire world.
After spending almost three hours to finish watching the documentary.
Ling Pingan felt that it was very enlightening.
Although he also knew that many of the claims in the documentary were untenable.
However, he was just looking for inspiration to try it out in the game and then write it into the novel.
After all, who would take a game or a novel seriously?
Therefore, he continued watching with great interest.
He only switched off the player when he felt that his stomach was growling when it was already night.
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 was already closed.
At this hour, most of the restaurants that were still open for business were midnight snack shops.
Ling Pingan took out his phone and looked at each one of them.
He started to select carefully.
The main reason was that his mouth was too picky. If it didn’t taste good, he would rather starve than eat it.
In the past, he had already tried it.
Whenever he ordered takeout that didn’t taste right, he would immediately throw it away if he tasted something awful.
He would rather starve than let his mouth and taste buds suffer.
That was how stubborn he was!
Therefore, he had his own set of standards when choosing takeaway.
Unlike other people, he rarely looked at the reviews of takeaway shops. That was something that could be faked.
He also rarely cared about the number of orders from takeaway shops. Most of the time, the number of orders had nothing to do with the quality of the taste!
Ling Pingan had his own experience in choosing takeout.
First of all, the takeout shop’s location was a little more remote. It was best to hide in an old neighborhood where outsiders wouldn’t know and wouldn’t be able to find it.
Secondly, the food they provided had to be special.
It couldn’t be the kind of lousy street food.
Lastly, the photo of the food, which wasn’t posted by the shop, but by the customer.
It had to look appetizing!
To the food, the appearance was also a battle strength!
That was the method Ling Pingan used to find the Fusang beef rice from Chiba Michiko’s shop.
Reality proved that this method works quite well.
It just required a relatively long time.
Starving, Ling Pingan searched through the takeout software one by one and then eliminated them one after another!
There was no other way. Most takeaway shops were based on volume.
The main focus was on quality and cheap prices…
To Ling Pingan, such a shop was destined to be out of his reach!
Suddenly, a somewhat familiar shop name came into view.
Little Ke’s Delicacies!
Ling Pingan recalled the squid whiskers that the young man in sunglasses had sent over last time.
He couldn’t help but drool a little.
It was a pity that the shop seemed to have encountered a problem and had a fire. What a pity!
“Is it that shop?” Ling Pingan thought as he clicked on the inside page of the shop. Then, he saw the introduction written under the shop by the owner of the shop: Dear customers, the shop is newly opened. All kinds of dishes are provided and made according to your luck. Please order carefully.
“Eh?” Ling Pingan was surprised. “So arrogant?”
Therefore, he pulled down the comment section.
He only saw a few comments.
However, each comment was full of praise for the various delicacies in the shop!
“I’ve never eaten such a crisp and soft octopus before!”
“It’s so delicious! Ahhhhh! I highly recommend it!”
“This shop should be included in Jiangcheng City’s business card.”
Beautiful pictures of the delicacies were also uploaded to the comments section by these guys.
It was obvious that these were all comments from the dine-in.
Ling Pingan 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 for three pieces.
The signature pig trotters cost 28.5 yuan.
The beef cost 50 yuan per dish.
… ..
They all looked very expensive, and the unit price was 50% to 150% higher than the price in the shops!
But…
That was how it should be!
Because in the food and beverage industry, there was no good stuff when it was cheap, and good stuff was not cheap!
Thinking carefully, the takeout that cost 10 yuan per piece did not taste good!
Now, it was no longer the era of chaos in the takeaway industry.
The subsidy of capital had long gone.
It was no longer possible to eat takeaway that cost dozens of yuan like in the past.
On the contrary, the capital was slowly tightening the shackles.
It was draining the wealth of the merchants and users bit by bit.
The merchants who were forced into a corner could only choose to pass on the cost to their customers.
Therefore, it was normal for the prices to be higher.
Ling Pingan saw this and didn’t hesitate any longer. He immediately placed the order.
He ordered squid tendril, beef, and half a pig’s foot with his HP.
After a while, his phone rang, indicating that the merchants had accepted the order.
Only then did Ling Pingan realize that the shop was the one who delivered the food, just like Chiba Michiko’s family!
That made Ling Pingan’s expectations of him even higher.
However…
“This shop is on Xincheng Road…” Ling Pingan 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 it was also the new city center!
In comparison, the area where Ling Pingan’s family lived was an old city zone that had been built more than a hundred years ago. It was a place of heavy industry and intensive processing industries, and it was the watchman of the old era.
There was a river between the two.
At least, it would take at least an hour!
Therefore, he was so hungry that he couldn’t stand the bookstore owner. He had to go upstairs and take out two bottles of fruit juice from the fridge.
He gulped down the juice to appease his hungry stomach temporarily.
Then, he went downstairs and looked at his phone. The takeaway platform showed that his order was still preparing.
“I’ll watch the TV!”He said and turned on the TV.
It happened to be the evening news.
“News from our station: The capital of the Lossia Empire, Peter City, is in chaos tonight. The rebels are suspected to have entered Peter City…”
The TV showed armored vehicles driving into an unfamiliar city.
“The Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Lossia Empire has not issued a statement yet!”
“But according to reliable sources… the coup was probably instigated by the supporters of the Lossia Decemberists!”
“Regarding this, the Federal Empire’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs has issued a statement calling on all parties to remain calm and not to start a civil war!”
Ling Pingan’s mouth was wide open as he watched.
Lossia…
An unfamiliar yet familiar neighboring country.
The reason it was unfamiliar was that it was practically a country that was hidden in the news of the Federal Empire.
In Ling Pingan’s memories, this country had only appeared in the news about ten times!
It was said to be familiar because this country had countless literary talents in its history!
That was simply an irresistible attraction to the Federal Empire!
After all, the people of the Empire were born with a good impression of literary talents.
Since ancient times, the people of the empire had been pursuing the three undeath.
Virtue, meritorious service, and speech.
The first two were too difficult!
The speech was relatively easier, but it was not that easy either.
Because, in tradition, the so-called speech had to be made known to 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 masters of Tang and Song!
By this standard, in the past hundred years, only a few people in the entire Federal Empire had reached the standard!
And the few literature experts of the Lossia Empire, even by the standards of the Federal Empire, were also people who made statements!
Tolstoy’s famous works, “War and Peace,” and “Resurrection” had once caused a reading frenzy in the Federal Empire!
Even today, they were still the favorite foreign literary works of the scholars of the Federal Empire!
Turgenev’s “Father and son” also had a profound influence!
The existence of these few great writers made the federal empire always have a certain inexplicable favorable impression of their northern neighbor.
After all, although scholars looked down on each other.
But the great writers who died were loved by everyone!
“The Decembrist…” Ling Pingan couldn’t help but pick up his phone to check the unfamiliar term in the news.
Then, his jaw dropped.
Because the encyclopedia on his phone showed that the so-called Decembrist was a failed revolution started by the Lossia nobles who were influenced by the thoughts of the Fran Emperor and spread from the Federal Empire 200 years ago.
Although the Decembrist failed, the wise people in the Lossia Empire still came one after another.
“A revolution that lasted for 200 years…”
“The Lossia people have such strong willpower!” Ling Pingan exclaimed.
… … ..
Sitting in the spacious living room.
Integral was watching the live broadcast of the situation in Peter City, the capital of Lossia, on the Internet, which was especially pulled from the consulate.
“A single move can affect the whole body…”
“The famous eastern saying is indeed accurate!” The young duchess sighed like an adult.
“Yes…” Alucard, who was in her scepter, also sighed. “For 200 years, the Lossia Empire has relied on Duke Ivy’s support!”
“Now that Ivy has fallen… The pillar of support is gone. Naturally, everything is gone!”
The decaying dynasty that the Decembrist had worked hard for 200 years but still could not be overthrown was about to be overthrown less than a week after Ivy’s fall.
Furthermore…
Looking at the current situation, the uprising was a drunken officer shouting in the camp.
After that, the entire army mutinied.
Following that, they entered Petersburg.
Emperor Lossia had already escaped!
The fortress that had supported the eastern side of the Land of Qin for two hundred years had collapsed!
That would bring about a chain reaction!
For a moment, the entire living room was eerily silent!
Because all beings grieve for their fellow being!
The Lossia Empire collapsed because of Duke Ivy.
Then…
If Alucard fell here, what would happen to the United Kingdom of Britannia?
The female Duke knew very well!
The number of traitors within the United Kingdom was no less than Lossia!
… … ..
Ling Pingan did not expect this.
He waited for at most half an hour before a motorcycle stopped at the door.
A young man wearing glasses knocked on the door with a pack of takeout boxes.
“Hello…” the young man politely handed the box over. “Here’s your takeout!”
Ling Pingan immediately turned off the television and walked forward.
He looked at the young man and felt that this young man was the owner of Little Ke seafood.
He took the takeaway box and asked, “Sir, did you open a seafood takeaway on the other side of the river?”
The young man smiled and nodded. “Customer, your memory is really good!”
Ling Pingan immediately smiled. He opened the takeaway box. The fragrant smell of squid whiskers made his fingers move!
It was still the same smell!
Therefore, he couldn’t help but ask, “Why did you stop opening your shop across the river?”
“Sigh…” the young man shook his head. “My family is unfortunate!”
“Because of some issues, I have some conflicts with my half-brother…”
“Oh…” Ling Pingan nodded. “No wonder!”
This kind of internal conflict in the family was usually very troublesome!
After all, the tradition of the Federal Empire was to encourage brothers to treat each other respectfully.
Many families, no matter how big the conflict was, had to welcome it with a smile!
Ling Pingan couldn’t ask further. He looked at his lunch box and was surprised to find that there was a golden fish egg.
“Why is there an extra dish?” Ling Pingan picked up the box of fish eggs and asked.
“This is a gift!” The young man said with a smile.
“Oh!” Ling Pingan nodded and didn’t mind.
After all, fish eggs were quite cheap.
After all, the entire Pacific Ocean was the Federal Empire’s inner lake!
Therefore, he smiled and nodded to the young man. “Thank you for your hard work, sir!”
“Please don’t mention it!” The man smiled and bowed. Then, he said, “Enjoy your meal, sir. I’ll take my leave first!”
“Please!” Ling Pingan cupped his hands.
He watched the young man ride away on his motorcycle.
Ling Pingan opened the food box, sat down on the counter, and ate a mouthful of squid whiskers first!
His eyes immediately lit up!
“Delicious!” Ling Pingan praised, “It’s delicious!”
The young man’s cooking skills seemed to have improved a lot!
Therefore, the starving bookstore owner ate up all the food at the speed of a tornado!
Then, he patted his belly and leaned back comfortably on the chair. “Delicious! Delicious!”
He added that restaurant into 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 I can’t eat it often!”
If he ate it often, he couldn’t afford it!
