A Random System Every Day - Chapter 43

Chapter 43: Not Good, Not Good, Not Good, All Of These Are Not Good

Mu Qianxue thought about it in silence.

“Apart from that, do you know how many humans are there? There are tens of billions of people. Even if ten of billions of people eat only one bowl of rice a day, how much food would be needed per day? Let alone meat. It’s not as simple as you think it is,” Ye Tianyi continued as he shook his head.

“Now I get it. Thank you for telling me this,” Mu Qianxue said, nodding lightly. “If that’s the case, what do you want?”

Ye Tianyi thought about it and asked. “Do you have any better techniques? Techniques are more valuable here but the level has to be higher. If I need to bring you out for a meal, the value of a technique is almost the cost of the meal.”

“What attribute do you want?”

“Do you have fire?”

Mu Qianxue shook her head.

“How about wind?”

She shook her head again.

“I only have ice.”

“Ice will do, too!” Ye Tianyi’s eyes lit up.

Martial artists could only learn and release the technique of their attributes. Ye Tianyi now had both the fire and wind attributes, and because of his previous encounter with Shi Jiayi, his ice attribute would gradually awaken. So, he could get this technique.

Mu Qianxue stretched out her delicate fingers and pointed it at Ye Tianyi’s forehead. A surge of energy entered Ye Tianyi’s body and his head started to hurt badly.

“Don’t resist it,” Mu Qianxue said softly.

Ye Tianyi then felt a surge of memory entering his brain. Mu Qianxue had enlightened him with perfect wisdom.

Absolute Zero Degrees?

“This is one of my techniques and the level should be of spirit-grade. Is this enough for a meal?”

Ye Tianyi, “…”

One meal in exchange for a spirit-grade technique?! This f*cking…!!

“E…enough,” Ye Tianyi nodded cautiously.

“But your Realm is very weak. You need to train to the Spirit Forging stage and have a decent qualification to release this technique. If not, you’re just being suicidal.”

This was a spirit-grade technique and it was true that even if Ye Tianyi learned it, he would not have enough spiritual energy to release it yet because the level of this technique was just too high! However, Ye Tianyi had no idea about…the strength of the spirit-grade technique. How many people in the Tensui Empire had spirit-grade techniques? In Ye Tianyi’s memory, the Ye family did not even have the sky-grade technique! The highest technique they had ever encountered was the earth-grade! And to think that the Ye family was one of the four great families!

“It’s really strong, right?” Ye Tianyi asked.

“It depends on your Realm. If you can successfully release it at the Spirit Forging stage: level five, it would not be a problem for you to kill a Profound Heaven stage: level five within seconds.”

Ye Tianyi, “…”

‘What the f*ck? This is the so-called spirit-grade technique?’

“However, it all comes down to whether you can release it. If you release it when your Realm is low, you would not be able to fight back.”

“I know this,” Ye Tianyi nodded.

“Let’s go. I’ll take you to eat some good food.” Ye Tianyi walked backward and flashed her a fake smile.

Nice! He had gained a lot!

Ye Tianyi did a mental calculation and found that he had about 35,000 now. There was a possibility that one huge meal could cost tens of thousands of bucks. Hence, they could not go to places like five-star hotels. He still needed to rent a room for her and give her some money to buy daily necessities. After all, she could not survive without money. He could not keep asking her every day to exchange her goodies just for daily items, right? Ye Tianyi could not accept this as what belonged to her was also his! With that in mind, though he said he would bring her for a big meal, it would be best if the meal did not exceed 2000 bucks…

A spirit-grade technique was exchanged for a meal that was only worth 2000 bucks. Ye Tianyi felt that if she ever found out about this, she would definitely kill him. It would be useless for him if they were having a nice relationship by then!

He could only consider the consequences of his actions being discovered later. For now, he needed to give her some money to spend on her own. She did not know the concept of ten bucks, a thousand bucks, or ten thousand bucks. Ye Tianyi could teach her the concept later on.

Ye Tianyi took Mu Qianxue to a hotel. Honestly, Ye Tianyi had already given her enough face as he brought her to a three-star hotel. As long as they did not order something super expensive, it would only cost the both of them about 1000 bucks for a meal at this place.

The hotel looked extravagant. At least, in Mu Qianxue’s opinion, this place was not too bad as it looked very clean and pretty. He should not be lying to her.

“Welcome to our shop,” the pretty usher said with a smile.

When they glanced at Mu Qianxue from the corners of their eyes, they were stunned.

Such a pretty lady with such a high-class temperament.

“Two people, please. Give me a private room,” Ye Tianyi said,

“I’m sorry, sir, but we’re full. There are no more private rooms…”

“Hey, hey, hey…” the lady was about to finish speaking when a man ran over from afar.

“It’s not full. It just so happened that a group of customers just left. So, there’s one private room available. Please, come with me,” the manager said with a smile on his face.

Private rooms were very precious as not many people liked noisy environments when they ate. Hence, they would book private rooms. There was actually one left but the manager had reminded his workers to say that there were none no matter who the customer was. This last private room was reserved only for big bosses. However, when he took a look at Mu Qianxue, he thought, how could such a pretty lady be a normal person? This was the big boss he had been waiting for! He would definitely let them use the private room. He estimated that they would probably spend a few tens of thousands for this meal. He was going to earn a lot!

The two of them entered a pretty private room. Mu Qianxue took a look and was astonished. This seemed to be quite a nice place and the food seemed reasonable, too.

She did not think anything was wrong even when Ye Tianyi was lying to her! The most important point was that Ye Tianyi was very smart. If he was slightly stingy and brought Mu Qianxue to a noodle shop, she would have easily realized that Ye Tianyi was lying to her.

“Hi, this is the menu.” The manager passed the menu to Mu Qianxue. Ye Tianyi got closer to her and watched her. He could not let her order expensive dishes.

‘F*ck! A plate of spicy sour potatoes costs seventy-five bucks! It only costs ten bucks in smaller shops! This is too f*cking expensive!’

“Give me a plate of spicy sour potatoes,” Ye Tianyi pointed and said.

“Alright.” The manager felt that it was normal to order two side dishes.

“Give us one of this braised pork,” Ye Tianyi said.

“Alright!”

“This and this, this and this,” Ye Tianyi pointed at a lot of normal dishes. Quite a few of them had some meat in them but they only cost a few hundred bucks.

“This looks delicious.” Mu Qianxue pointed at a dish that looked pretty on the menu—golden caviar.

Ye Tianyi, “…”

“This pretty lady has good insight, this is ca…” Before the manager had time to finish speaking, Ye Tianyi quickly said, “It’s not nice. Trust me! Let’s get one of these—Kung Pao Chicken.”

F*ck! Ye Tianyi looked at the price of the caviar. It cost 3,000 bucks for one spoonful… Who could f*cking stand that?

The corner of the manager’s mouth twitched.

“How about this?” Mu Qianxue pointed at the foie gras.

It seemed very pretty. She ordered things based on their appearance because she had no idea what these were. She only thought it looked delicious, but it was also very expensive as it seemed to cost a few thousand bucks just for one serving.

“That’s not nice. That is a fatty liver. We’ll have one of these instead—steamed meat with vermicelli,” Ye Tianyi quickly said.

The manager, “…”
