Warhammer: Hail to the Void Lords!

Chapter 38 02.0038: ‘Exchanging questions for food, so delicious! ’

"Have some fried pork with chili, miss."

The girl stood aside with a small notebook in her hand to record.

She has never seen such a handsome young man in Zhongchao. People who come here to eat are more or less required to do manual labor.

The rare guest made the girl couldn't help but look at it a few more times, and because she was distracted, even her words became erratic.

"'Bean Blood Jelly'?" Horatio looked at the tofu-like drink in the picture, his brows raised and raised with a strange expression.

"Sir, this is made according to our family's ancestral secret recipe. You can try it! It's delicious and comes in two flavors: salty and sweet." The girl introduced with an enthusiastic smile.

"Why do you call this 'bean blood jelly'?"

"Because it's made of beans, it looks like blood jelly and is very elastic!" the girl explained in a eloquent manner.

Horatio thought for a while: [Okay, compared to tofu brain, the term tofu blood jelly seems to be more acceptable to people. After all, the people of the Empire may not dare to order something called 'brain'. ]

"Have some, something sweet."

"As you wish, sir."

The girl wrote down the dishes happily, and then under her guidance Horatio ordered two more tempting-looking dishes.

"That's all." Horatio closed the menu.

"The total consumption after tax is 380 yuan, sir."

"Eh?! Is the consumption tax so high?"

Horatio saw that the price had suddenly increased a lot. He looked at the four dishes he ordered and recalculated in his mind. The consumption tax was actually 33% of the total price!

I was instantly shocked by the heavy taxes on this planet.

"With the escalation of the galactic war, material routes have been severely disrupted. Now everyone's life is difficult. If the chaebols want to live comfortably, they have to suck blood from the people below, so..."

The girl's face was full of helplessness and she shrugged.

If it weren't for the prosperous business of Abyss Port, and under the general environment, most people on the planet could get a share of the pie, I am afraid that the dissatisfied people would have rebelled long ago.

However, even if they rebel, it won't work. The people on the Nest are vested interests, and they form the main body of the planetary defense force.

The only people in the Zhonghuo who can join are the coastal defense infantry of the Imperial Navy.

These red-coated soldiers are responsible for the defense of the naval prison area.

The Naval Ward is a special area spread throughout the Abyss Hive, dedicated to serving the Imperial Navy. It is a unique feature of military port planets like Abyss Port.

It is functionally divided into a series of complex and rich support systems such as industrial production area, logistics reserve area, gun and munitions area, aviation base area, naval sanatorium area, etc.

These areas are guarded by the Imperial Navy aviation, armed sailors, Imperial Navy officers, coastal defense infantry and other planetary defense forces directly under the Gothic Sector Navy Department on mothballed or resting battleships.

No one would have the guts to rebel against the Imperial Navy, not even the slightest idea. After all, it was not the Imperial Navy that oppressed them. At the same time, although liberalism prevailed in the Navy, the Imperial Navy was notoriously strict in terms of military discipline.

As the famous saying goes: 'The noose in the square and the nine-tailed whip in the hands of the sergeants maintain the majesty of the Imperial Navy and the authority of the captain. ’

[But even though I have money, I don’t know how long one hundred thousand can last with so many and various taxes. It’s really Sima’s guild alliance! ] Horatio cursed in his mind.

He still has to make money first to make the transition. He is not a soft-boiled person.

"Sir, your bill after consumption tax has reached 300 yuan. Let me give you a cocktail." The girl grabbed the bill and Horatio scratched out the word "tax", and suggested with a wry smile.

"Thank you," Horatio sighed and replied with a smile.

A glass of wine can really make you feel better.

"You can come and sit down at the bar first, sir." After the girl handed the order to her father, she placed a small folding sign on Horatio's dining table, then opened the small door and walked into the bar.

Horatio stood up and sat down on the chair in front of the bar.

"Want something? Sir. Any one on the brand will do."

Horatio looked at the exquisite drink sign. It looked like it was painted by the girl herself, and it was pretty good.

"One glass..." He examined the sign, picked the drink, looked into the girl's eyes, and smiled: "Sweet martini, less ice, thank you."

"Okay, please wait a moment, sir."

When ordering, Horatio glanced at the glasses, books and exercises behind the bar. One of the geometry problems had many traces of erasures. Even the written part only proved part of it, far from it. The question requires proof of a two-sided relationship.

[He is really a student. No wonder he was sitting in the back wearing glasses. He was doing his homework. ]

Education is obviously a normal thing, but in this cold, dark and unfamiliar world, it seems so out of place.

Although Horatio didn't like books and homework since he was a child, at this time, it actually evoked a familiar warmth in his heart.

[I don’t know what the education system on this planet is like. ]

"Don't you know this question?" Horatio asked, looking at the homework book.

The girl who was preparing to mix drinks was stunned for a moment. When she realized what Horatio was asking, her face turned red.

"Ah... that question is very difficult. I couldn't figure it out even after trying it many times. I plan to ask the teacher at school." The girl explained awkwardly.

She still maintained a pleasant smile, but she didn't think Horatio could understand what was written on it, because the people who came here were usually illiterate and uneducated. Even if they were well-dressed, they were basically nouveau riche.

Horatio looked at the title for a moment in silence.

"Why don't you try to prove it from its diagonal parallel lines?" Horatio looked at the girl and pointed to the opposite direction figure that the girl had been proving for a long time with a smile.

The girl opened her eyes wide, quickly put on her round glasses, and instantly entered the learning mode: "But aren't the conditions there very few?"

"This was intentional by the person who asked the question."

Horatio pointed to the graph and said: "This question appears to give you so many conditions to attract you to solve the problem from the place with many conditions. The conditions given to you by the question maker are not at the beginning."

"Really?" The girl's eyes became wide and she followed Horatio's instructions and began to prove it starting with the pattern with the least conditions.

"Of course, you need to be careful here, this graphic..."

Horatio held the wine glass and pointed at the graphics to patiently instruct the girl.

"Ah!" The girl looked very surprised: "Sir, how can you understand so well? It's amazing!"

Then he blushed because he had guessed that the young man was a dandy young master from a nouveau riche family in Zhongchao.

As a result, he is not only well-dressed and handsome, but also knowledgeable!

[It's amazing, I am a certified master's degree from Gutera, and a regular Coast Guard law enforcement officer. I survived that year, let alone this little high school math? ]

Horatio raised the corners of his mouth proudly and smiled without saying a word.

Of course he would not tell the girl this, but the girl's eyes when she looked at him had unknowingly changed from the initial shyness to a sparkle of admiration and incredible surprise.

"When writing about this type of question in the future, be careful not to fall into the trap of the question maker."

"Since you taught me how to do the questions, I'll treat you to a dish as a thank you!" The girl said excitedly as she crossed out the price of the most expensive dish on the bill with her backhand.

"One code is another code. It's not easy for you to make money, or is it..."

Before Horatio could resist, the girl Wink glanced at him and ran away.

[What a well-educated girl. ] Horatio assumed a comfortable sitting position and smiled helplessly.
