Restaurants connect to everything? It's reasonable for me to make 1 billion, right?

Chapter 498 Salary Guaranteed to Satisfy
Alex looked in the direction Lin Duo pointed.

A young and beautiful lady.

The other person was blinking their bright eyes, looking at him curiously.

Alex felt a momentary panic when he saw her staring at him, but he quickly recovered and nodded to Sheng Jiu: "Thank you for saving my life, madam. Alex sends his regards."

As he spoke, he made a strange gesture.

It must be their customary greeting.

Sheng Jiu wondered, should I nod or bow?

It all seemed quite troublesome, so Sheng Jiu finally just nodded: "We just happened to run into you, it wouldn't be right to just watch you bleed to death there, would it?"

He knew Alex's condition perfectly well.

Hearing Sheng Jiu say this, he smiled helplessly: "It's just that the lady is kind-hearted."

Countless adventurers like him die every year.

Not everyone is as lucky as him to be saved.

Therefore, Alex is still very grateful to Sheng Jiu.

After exchanging pleasantries, Sheng Jiu asked him, "How are you feeling? Can you move around? Is there anything else that's bothering you?"

If not, quickly get out of the treatment pod.

This place charges by the minute!

Okay, then stop lying around wasting money, thank you!
Of course, it's not appropriate to say what comes next now.

Alex didn't actually understand.

However, after moving around for a bit and not feeling any discomfort, he nodded and said, "I feel good."

Before Sheng Jiu could speak, Lin Duo said, "Then come out and go back first. This is a treatment room, and the fees are very high."

Upon hearing that the cost was high, Alex became incredibly agile. In the blink of an eye, he had jumped out of the treatment pod. You couldn't tell that just over an hour ago, he was covered in blood and unconscious.

Seeing his nimble movements, Sheng Jiu thought that he had recovered quite well and there was no need to worry too much.

It's true, the other person was running around wearing only underwear, it was a bit of an eyesore, like a monkey coming down from the mountain.

Ares reacted quickly. There were girls here, how could he run around looking like that?

So he quickly took out a spare set of clothes from his spatial storage and handed it over: "Put these on first."

It was only then that Alex realized he wasn't wearing many clothes.

The moment she realized what had happened, her face turned as red as a ripe tomato, and she repeatedly said, "Sorry, sorry."

The clothes in the interstellar world are quite different from those in the magical world, but Ares's outfit is very simple.

So, after a little trial and error, Alex managed to put it on.

The two were about the same height, but Ares was more muscular, while Alex was leaner.

So, after he finished dressing, he looked somewhat empty.

However, for Lin Duo and his group, having a piece of clothing for Alex to cover up was enough.

As for whether it fits or not?
You were rescued, and you've already been chosen?
The splendor of the interstellar space dazzled Alex.

However, he didn't have much of a chance to look around before Sheng Jiu and the others took him back to Shengji.

After returning, he looked around blankly, then looked around again.

what?
Why are there two "outsides"?

Alex looked completely bewildered.
A space magician?

But even they can't do that.

They are merely moving through space, not folding space!
Could he be a legendary magician?
Alex took a deep breath and looked at Sheng Jiu with a hint of admiration.

Sheng Jiu:?
Your eyes look a little strange.

I don't really understand it, and I'm too lazy to look into it further.

After returning, Sheng Jiu asked Alex if he was hungry and if he wanted to eat.
I hadn't noticed it before, but now that I asked, Alex touched his empty stomach and said embarrassedly, "Then I'll have to trouble you."

As he spoke, he even considered touching some gold coins as a reward. But then he realized...

Oh, right, he changed his clothes.

Wait, what happened to his clothes?

Lin Duo had saved it for him, and even put it in a bag: "Yours is almost rotten."

The stains on my underwear can be washed off; that's a powerful feature of the treatment chamber.

Why pay to have your tattered clothes washed?
The cost of washing the clothes is enough to buy a new set of the same outfit.

Alex was surprised that Lin Duo had saved it for him, so he quickly took it and felt around with both hands.

I touched a lonely spot.

Hey?
Where is his money?
Seeing him touching it with a puzzled expression, Lin Duo tried to explain, but he still had difficulty speaking, so he glanced at Boer.

Bohr: ?
No, you're not even a father yet, and you're already ordering me around?
However, considering Lin Duo's language skills, Boer had no choice but to step in himself: "There's nothing in your clothes, just a blood-stained and tattered outfit."

Alex: ?
what.

All your belongings are gone?

The sky is falling!

He had a dozen or so gold coins, though not many.

There were also dozens of silver coins, as well as weapons and daily necessities.

His entire fortune!
Alex looked as if he'd been struck by lightning, making it easy to understand what he was thinking.

Bohr kindly leaned over and asked, "Your belongings are gone?"

Alex nodded numbly.

Paul shrugged: "Then you'll have to work to pay off your debts. Perfect timing, the small boss signed you an employee contract to save you. Don't worry, you won't be able to run away until you've earned enough money."

Alex: ?
Although I didn't understand, a rich aroma of food wafted from downstairs.

It smells so good!
He had never smelled such a rich and fragrant aroma before!

what is this?
Is it even better than their barbecue?

Alex thought, "Of course."

It smells even better than their barbecue!
He couldn't help but swallow, turning his head to ask in a low voice, "Yours..."

As soon as he opened his mouth, Alex noticed that Paul's brows furrowed slightly, so he quickly changed his question: "Are our salaries high?"

After thinking for a moment, Bohr nodded: "It depends on how you look at it, but we're all quite satisfied anyway."

There is no salary.

But it includes room and board.

Moreover, they are in prison.

It includes food and lodging, and the food and lodging are quite good. You can also enjoy things like going to the bathhouse regularly.

Isn't this great?
To receive such treatment while in prison is already a blessing, isn't it?
I didn't give you just radishes, cabbages, and tofu every day, isn't that good enough?
And you still want money?
One should not be too greedy.

After hearing this, Alex breathed a sigh of relief.

As long as the salary is satisfactory, that's fine.

Can he use his salary to pay off his debts?

Alex thought uncertainly.

At this moment, Number Two was cooking downstairs, while Sheng Jiu was on the phone.

The call was from President Cheng's assistant, who was asking if Sheng Jiu had any items similar to the Black Jade Fortune Ball.

If we don't have something as precious as black jade, other types of jade will also work.

It's mainly about feng shui treasures. If you have any, could you please post some photos and videos?
