    Asianovel

    The world's first crowdsourcing-driven asian bl novel translation community

    "Yes, improve." Xia Yan said to the other end of the phone.

    "Specific data?" Wayne's words were not sloppy at all, and he directly asked the core of the question.

    Xia Yan took the paper sheet and replied: "Actually, the size of the fresh-keeping box has not changed, but the self-heating device needs to be changed..."

    ...

    "Concentrate on studying!" Ai Xue sat on the dining table dignifiedly.

    In front of them were groups of velvet balls lying on the ground doing their homework. Each ball had a piece of homework paper under it. Gail stretched out five small claws and counted one by one.

    "9×9 equals how much meow..."

    Ai Xue watched Gail raise her little paw, muttered to herself for a while, and then slapped on the answer to "99" with a "slap", and looked around after taking the shot, admiring her masterpiece.

    "Oh." Ai Xue sighed.

    "Meow." Gail felt that his homework was super good, and couldn't help raising his tail, and patrolled the hall with a patter.

    "Meow!" I must be the first meow in the whole grade!

    While Ai Xue was watching with cold eyes, Yun Ling suddenly said: "No, Gail, don't be so smug! What you did is wrong!"

    Hit him!Hit him!Ai Xue secretly cheered her up, but the next second Yun Ling's words stunned her——

    "9 x 9 equals 1!"

    "Why?" Gail and Ashe blurted out almost at the same time.

    Yun Ling straightened up, and said inscrutably, "9 paints mixed with 9 paints, isn't it equal to one color in the end!"

    "Is that so..." Gail thought thoughtfully.

    Ai Xue couldn't help asking: "Why haven't I heard this kind of statement?"

    This is even more outrageous than 99!

    "That's because you don't understand art." Yun Ling looked sacred.

    Ashe: "..."

    ...

    "The fresh-keeping box is all used to store dishes, and the hot pot base, dipping sauce and self-heating device are all placed outside, which can greatly save space and hold more dishes." Xia Yan said.

    "Base, dip?" Wayne was surprised.

    Forget, Mr. Wayne, like the interstellar residents, does not understand the specific meaning of "hot pot", let alone the base and dipping sauce.

    "Two ingredients, I'll send you the data and materials later, as long as there are three boxes, it's best delivered today." Xia Yan explained briefly.

    "Okay, okay." Wayne responded again and again, and said casually: "Must it be today? It seems that you are in a hurry."

    Xia Yan explained the reason with a smile: "Yes, I will live broadcast tonight."

    "Okay, it will definitely be delivered today."

    Xia Yan hung up the phone, picked up the schedule that she promised to print out, in the morning the column "Discussing new products with Mr. Wayne" has been completed, and in the evening there is a hot pot live broadcast, at noon?What are you doing at noon?

    "Go buy seeds." Nuo Yan opened the post-it note in disgust and complained, "Your memory is getting worse."

    "I've been too busy recently." Xia Yan replied with a smile, got up and put on her coat, went to the downstairs hall, and told Suomi: "When the fresh-keeping box arrives, notify the factory to produce a sample, which will be used for the live broadcast at night."

    "Meow~" Suomi responded sweetly.

    As soon as Xia Yan stepped out of the door, a soft pad hugged her thigh, and at first glance, it turned out to be Ai Xue begging for a hug, which was really nice to hear.

    Ben Meow can't stand it!If you stay any longer, your IQ will be infected!

    "Okay, I'll take you out for a stroll." Xia Yan pampered her head and leaned over to pick up the fur ball, but this hug was a little unexpected.

    My God, didn't hug him for a few days, and gained a lot of weight. When turn into a human shape, can't cry.

    Xia Yan complained inwardly, and boarded the spaceship to Titan Star.

    "Lin Mei, you have to think clearly, this opportunity is not to be missed!"

    "I think clearly." Lin Mei took out the juice, closed the refrigerator with a bang, and returned to the dining table, "I won't introduce this crisper production line!"

    She was indeed popular before, but now her popularity is declining, she cannot make ends meet, and she has less money. Manager John even persuaded her to buy a fresh-keeping box production line?

    Not to mention how expensive it is, the example is right in front of him, Yan Yan used this kind of crisper, and it turned out...

    "Manager John, I'm your regular customer, you can't cheat me like this!" Lin Mei complained.

    Manager John became anxious on the spot, "Where did I trick you? That Yan Yan store is trying out this kind of crisper and developing a thing called hot pot. There is no guarantee that it will not be popular in the future! You can place an order now, and you can save a lot of money!"

    "Come on!" Lin Mei sneered: "Hot pot? This thing has bad reviews all over the Internet! No one buys it at all!"

    However, upon hearing the sharper sarcasm, John did not rush to refute. Instead, he said in a low voice: "Indeed, Mr. Wayne, the person in charge of R&D, don't worry about this a few days ago, but it's different now!"

    His voice was lower, and he talked about the internal secret mysteriously: "Mr. Wayne finished talking with Xia Yan on the phone this morning, and walked out of the office with a smile on his face. It's hard to guarantee that it's not Xia Yan who has some new improvements!"

    New improvements?Lin Mei snorted disdainfully, how many new improvements can reverse the comments on the whole network?She couldn't believe it. Didn't Manager John see her down and wanted to get the last sum of money from her?

    nausea!

    And Manager John was still rambling: "You are a regular customer, so I only revealed the secret to you. The assembly line is first come, first served. You have to think about it!"

    "Ah, I know." Lin Mei coped, and suddenly a message popped up in the address book, which belonged to Lin Xiya, asking her to come to the star master's office.

    The master's words were God's will. She didn't have the heart to discuss the future hot pot situation with Manager John, so she hurriedly said, "Okay, I'll think about it, let's not talk about temporary matters."

    "Hey, I haven't finished yet..." Manager John shouted into the microphone, but only a blind voice was heard.

    Lin Mei came to the Star Master's office almost at a trot. As soon as she entered, she saw Lin Xiya who had carefully painted her makeup, and she seemed to be going out.

    "What do you want from me?" Lin Mei asked out of breath.

    "Buy saplings for edible cherry blossoms." Lin Xiya didn't even look at her, and continued to brush the broken hair on her temples.

    "Yes, I will go with you."

    Xia Yan soon arrived at Titan Star.

    There is a store on Titan Star that sells seeds and saplings. There are 22 floors from bottom to top, and Ai Xue in her arms is stunned.

    Hundreds of seed industry brands are stationed on the first floor, and samples are placed in the counter for customers who come and go to check the quality of seeds.

    There are also rows of saplings placed in glass columns, which provide corresponding water, sunlight and nutrients according to the data to keep the samples in the freshest appearance.

    Xia Yan saw a bunch of pink rose vines with rich green leaves and elegant flowers. She couldn't help but walked over and touched it through the glass window. Ai Xue also pressed her two paws on it, very curious, and let out a meow.

    Wow, it's so beautiful meow!

    The shopping guide manager immediately stepped forward and introduced very professionally: "Your vision is really good. This is the latest flower vine species we sent, which is very suitable for planting in the garden."

    Xia Yan politely agreed, and turned her gaze to the opposite glass counter, where there were rows of seed samples.

    Seeing that it was a big customer who was going to buy seeds, the shopping guide manager added beside him: "We are Xixi Seed Industry, one of the best seed industry groups in the whole interstellar, and our reputation is absolutely guaranteed."

    "Well, I know." Xia Yan replied lightly.

    I did homework before came here, and have long aimed at the Xixi brand. Besides, in the shopping mall, its store occupies the size of five other stores, and can guess the reason by thinking about it.

    Wealthy, so angry!

    When Xia Yan turned around, the cat in her arms immediately attracted the attention of the shopping guide manager. The cat had soft white fur, and its two small paws were innocently forcibly removed from the glass window by the owner, very unhappy.

    "Meow-gu-meow-gu." Ai Xue poked Xia Yan with her little brain, and began to act coquettishly.

    "Cats are really cute." said the shopping guide manager.

    "Naughty ghost." Xia Yan said modestly, but she was very proud in her heart. Her little Miaomiao was praised by others, and she wished she could use the loudspeaker to go on the stars and talk about it!

    "I want to buy a batch of seeds, a total of 11 kinds, and the amount is one ton." She got to the point.

    "I'll bring you a sample right here..."

    "No." Xia Yan looked directly into her eyes and repeated again: "I mean, one ton for each variety."

    The shopping guide manager's eyes lit up, and he immediately led Xia Yan into a slightly private conversation area, told her to sit down, and went to get samples by himself.

    Xia Yan sat quietly, letting Aixue play with the glass curtains that separated the conversation areas.

    The 11 types include the regular ingredients for hot pot: cabbage, white radish, coriander, etc. She will also grow the raw materials of bean curd and bean sprouts-soybeans, and the raw materials of vermicelli-sweet potatoes, green onions, ginger and garlic, etc.

    The planting skills of the rabbits are becoming more and more exquisite, and the whole Ruibo people are like crazy. They hold books and read every day, and almost move their rabbit teeth to chew.At the same time, a large amount of land was gradually merged with the help of multi-purpose excavators, and the land was surplus.

    So this time she plans to buy more seeds at once to see if there is a discount.

    "You are very confident." Ai Xue said, Xia Yan turned her head in surprise, seeing her foolishly biting the glass ball, in the eyes of outsiders, she was just a stupid little cat.

    Xia Yan turned on the optical brain, and said as if self-centered: "I made a mistake before and didn't fully introduce the hot pot to everyone, which caused the fans to look confused. I will introduce it in the live broadcast tonight."

    "Meow." Ai Xue agreed with her thoughts.

    The samples and catalogs were brought quickly, and the shopping guide manager enthusiastically introduced the advantages and disadvantages of each variety, and the varieties had been planned in advance, Xia Yan was very quick to purchase, and placed an order in a short while.

    "A total of 25.5 million, do you want to pay in full or in installments?" The shopping guide manager smiled and made a "please" gesture, and the checkout counter was not far away.

    Xia Yan didn't move, but emphasized instead: "Full payment."

    The shopping guide manager paused, looked around for no one, and leaned into her ear: "50% off, what do you think?"

    24.22 million?

    "Okay." Xia Yan nodded.

    Xia Yan walked into the meeting area with the shopping guide manager. She saw the pink rose just now and thought about buying it.

    "Lin Xiya? Lin Mei?" Xia Yan was a little surprised.

    Lin Xiya was also slightly taken aback, snorted, and turned her head to ignore her, but Lin Mei, the dog leg, was extremely jealous as if she had met an enemy.

    "Xia Yan? It's my bad luck to see such a vicious person like you today!" She cursed.

    Shocked by the roar, Xia Yan wondered, "Eldest sister, this is the first time I've met you, isn't your evaluation of me too outrageous?"

    Miss?How did I become a sister at such a young age?Lin Mei was even more annoyed in her heart. She gritted her teeth and squeezed out a hateful word from the back of her molars: "If it weren't for you, how could I have fallen into the state I am today! You are the one who made trouble!"

    Oh, it turned out that my live broadcast room was so popular that I snatched her position as the first lady of gourmet food, so I was upset.

    "Without evidence, I can sue you for slander." Xia Yan leisurely flicked her fingernails, as if recalling something, she suddenly said:

    "By the way, when you published articles that slandered me and invited trolls to my live broadcast room to make trouble, there is solid evidence for this!"

    Lin Mei took a step back in shock. It's been a long time since the hot article happened, and she also planned to suppress newcomers at the beginning, so how could Xia Yan still remember this article?

    "I've done it, don't be afraid that others will remember it." Xia Yan smiled meaningfully.

    Lin Mei's arrogance was reduced immediately, with a slightly panicked face, he stammered: "Nothing!"

    "I know you deleted the article later." Xia Yan walked over and patted her on the shoulder, whispering: "I, I recorded the screen!"

    "Screen recording?"

    Facing Lin Mei's flustered appearance, Xia Yan lamented that the only experience she learned in her previous life from all kinds of fan circles is to record the screen and save evidence.

    Leave evidence, eternal truth!Screen recording is even more creative!

    Facing Xia Yan's defeat, Lin Mei was displeased with Lin Xiya, who had been pretending not to care but was actually eavesdropping, thinking that a small smear article would scare her into such a fright, what a waste.

    "Come here, we're going to pick edible cherry blossom saplings today!" She reprimanded with her head tilted.

    Lin Mei obediently followed, Lin Xiya still felt that she was defeated here, she was not reconciled, she sniffed a bouquet of lilies with her nose, and with a calm smile, Yoyo said to Lin Mei: "Our cherry blossom group has been very popular recently., many fans are looking forward to it, you have to prepare well."

    The implication is to tell Xia Yan who is on the side: Our food is not inferior to yours, please restrain yourself.

    However, Lin Mei didn't understand the meaning, and her ambition was boosted immediately, and she ran to Xia Yan to show off her power: "What are you proud of? I heard that there are many bad reviews for Zire Hot Pot, and your fans must be very disappointed with you."Right? In that case, my article is not without reason..."

    "So what?"

    "Heh, my Cherry Blossom Group has received good reviews and attracted many fans?"

    "Oh?" Xia Yan narrowed her eyes, and said coolly, "What are you so proud of? The prismatic shape becomes round, and the glutinous rice cake becomes a cherry blossom group. Do you really think I don't care about hot spots?"

    "Meow!" Ai Xue bared her small fangs and let out a milky roar.

    "This..." Lin Mei was at a loss for words, her cheeks flushed red within a few seconds, she was choked by Xia Yan for the second time today, and she had nowhere to argue, after all, the recipe of cherry blossom group and cherry blossom glutinous rice cake is exactly the same.

    And Lin Xiya, who was so calm and peaceful, almost broke the delicate lily with her hand.

    Waste is waste!I can't help it up!

    "Anyway, anyway, it's all made of glutinous rice flour, and we can't just let your family..."

    Lin Mei was making excuses indiscriminately, a high-pitched voice forcibly suppressed her words: "It seems that Xia Yan is very confident in self-heating hot pot."

    Lin Xiya walked over, with the smell of green tea all over her body, she folded her arms and said, "Listen, Lin Mei's cherry blossom group is very similar to cherry blossom glutinous rice cake?"

    "You know it in your heart." Xia Yan turned her head away, Lin Xiya pretended not to know about the obvious, so she didn't need to waste her words.

    "Okay, since there is a dispute, let's hold a competition."

    "What competition?" Xia Yan frowned.

    "Cherry blossom group and self-heating hot pot." Lin Xiya raised her chin high, her eyes full of sarcasm:

    "It's very simple. Participate in the Star Talk Food Festival and let everyone vote for their favorite food. Didn't you claim that the recipe of the cherry blossom group copied the cherry blossom glutinous rice cake? You are so capable, the self-heating hot pot must be a hundred times better than this, so to speak......"

    "Oh, our Lin Mei is still at a disadvantage." She covered her lips and smiled.

    Ai Xue was so angry that she gritted her teeth, and she said that there was a bad review about the self-heating hot pot, but she turned her head and praised it so high that Xia Yan had to take over the competition!

    Everyone is still in the stage of adapting to self-heating hot pot, they are really at a disadvantage!No, Xia Yan can't agree...

    "What's the bet?" Xia Yan asked calmly.

    "The loser with the lowest number of votes will forward the promotional blog of the other shop to the top for at least three months," Lin Xiya said.

    three months?Ai Xue was taken aback, and quickly reminded Xia Yan not to take part in the competition, but Xia Yan only replied lightly: "Okay".

    Turn around, check out, and leave the shop.

    After she left, Lin Xiya turned her head and glared at Lin Mei: "It's just an article, it scares you."

    Lin Mei cried and said: "I wrote the article, and I understand the pros and cons. If it is published now, the fans of Yan Yan's store will tear my hands apart? My popularity has declined!"

    "Come on, you don't have many fans at all now!" Lin Xiya pierced her mercilessly, and after thinking about it, she said: "But this time I can attract a wave of fans. Her self-heating hot pot is said to be strange all over the Internet.Can't believe she can reverse those comments."

    "Just wait for Xia Yan to promote the store for you unconditionally!"

    Xia Yan returned to her own planet, found the Star Talk Food Festival, and clicked to participate. At this time, Suomi also delivered the improved self-heating hot pot.

    After finding a beautiful place with flowers and trees, Yan Yan's live broadcast room started broadcasting, and the number of people climbed rapidly within a few minutes.

    "Hi everyone, today I will introduce you to the improved self-heating hot pot." Seeing that the number of people was almost there, Xia Yan picked up the box and waved it in front of the camera.

    Red checkmark: "The taste is really weird, and the name is also weird. The host should improve it."

    Who dug Lao Tzu's mine: "I think it tastes great! What's wrong?"

    Red check mark: "The fans upstairs don't need to make such an excuse, the taste is spicy and salty... oh, it's an indescribable taste!"

    Li Li: "The more I eat, the more I want to eat, it's like an addiction..."

    ...

    Xia Yan quickly quelled the barrage debate, and directly tore open the box packaging with a "stab" sound, saying: "Today I will explain the hot pot in all aspects, and everyone will have a new understanding after hearing it."

    The words were sincere, and the barrage was much quieter. She lowered her head and took out the product.

    The new product is divided into upper and lower layers, the upper layer is a white ordinary plastic box, and the lower layer is a light green special fresh-keeping box, the two can be separated.She opened the plastic box, took out three packages, and showed the self-heating bag in front of the camera.

    "This is a self-heating bag. Everyone should be familiar with it. It heats food."

    The light green box was opened, and it was different from the past. It was full of fresh vegetables and meatballs, even the bean skins were crisp, and the whole fresh-keeping box was filled by categories. The vegetables were very fresh, as if they had just been picked from the field.

    Li Li: "Sure enough, it is the newly developed fresh-keeping box. It is said that the freshness can reach 98%? Is that true?"

    "That's right!" Xia Yan said with a smile: "It allows everyone to eat fresh food all the time!"

    36-hole origami: "Yan Yan is bothering you."

    Stop punching in the card and read: "Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo(ery

    Xia Yan put the ingredients contained in the transparent bottom tray into the plastic box together, and explained to the camera: "Now, we are going to start eating hot pot!"

    She took out the self-heating bar, took the self-heating bag and introduced: "This fire is used for heating."

    There is a layer of imitation iron heating pot in the light green crisper. The material has most of the characteristics of iron, and the cost is extremely low. A small one is even less than 10 star coins. It is safe, non-toxic and heat-conducting. It is the main material of interstellar cheap kitchen utensils.

    She picked up the small pot, stuffed the heating bag under it, and announced loudly: "The bottom is fire, and the top is a pot. This is - fire! Pot!"

    As soon as the voice fell, the bullet screen was quiet for a moment, and then a heated discussion arose:

    "The meaning is too straightforward!"

    "I also complained that Yan Yan didn't explain the meaning, but it turned out that... I'm too stupid?"

    "Hahahaha, Yan Yan didn't expect that everyone wouldn't be able to figure out the meaning!"

    "Wow, what a novel way to eat!"

    ...

    "Hey, the more novel ones are yet to come." Xia Yan took the hot pot bottom material, pointed to the red oil flowing in the packaging bag and said, "This is called the bottom material, the bottom material, the seasoning for the bottom of the pot! Add water to boil later,We can use it to rinse ingredients!"

    Considering that some fans can't eat spicy food, Xia Yan added: "In order to allow the spicy and salty taste to adhere to the ingredients, the base is made very spicy, please use according to your own discretion."

    Red check mark: "Wait, you mean... the bottom material is not edible?"

    When Xia Yanyun heard this comment, she was startled, and hurriedly asked: "You can't drink the base soup! You..."

    However, it was too late, before she finished speaking, the barrage exploded:

    I'm Princess Chen Xi: "What? Can't you drink? Why can't you drink?"

    Lan Strawberry: "Halo, I said the ingredients are good, why is the soup so weird, it seems to have added more than 20 seasonings."

    The mine in the back mountain: "Same, I took a mouthful of the condiment, if it didn't taste good, I would have thought I was drinking medicine."

    God says you can't do it: "Big brothers, don't you read the instructions for eating!"

    ...

    "You guys drank all the soup?" Xia Yan was deeply shocked by the words on the bullet screen. If it was true, the fans only gave strange comments, which is really tactful.

    Looking at the line of barrages that were equally shocked by drinking the soup, she couldn't help complaining: "Drink the soup...isn't it salty..."
