Chapter 323: Not Eating Beef and Lying Down"By the way, why don't you eat beef?" Shi Feizhe asked after looking at the sign that said "Don't eat beef". "Because I've eaten enough!" said Mr. Cat. "Have you eaten enough? Can you eat enough beef?" Shi Feizhe was puzzled. Beef is very popular in the underworld because it is expensive and delicious. "One winter, Aye and I ate pickled vegetables and snow for the entire winter." Uncle Cat fell into memory and continued: "The spring of that year was quite early. We caught a strange cow, which looked a bit like a cow and a bit like a sheep. We survived thanks to it." "After a winter, the strange cow was starving and skinny, but it was enough for us to eat for many days and kept us alive!" “In the beginning, the beef was fresh and tasted good no matter how it was cooked.” “Then the weather got warmer and the beef started to smell funny.” "Eating beef every day was a torture. But we were unlucky at that time and had no other food."
“Only pickles and beef.” "Later, I couldn't smell the beef and felt like vomiting," explained Mr. Cat. No matter how thin a cow is, it must weigh several hundred kilograms. If a person and a cat eat it every day, it will take several months, right? No wonder. "I don't have anything else to give you." Shi Feizhe looked at the cat lying on the ground with his limbs stretched out and said: “Begging is not recommended here.” "I'm not begging, I'm performing!" Uncle Cat corrected. "What do you mean by selling performance? I think it's selling body!" Shi Feizhe said as he looked at the words "Big cats can be touched". "Selling your body is also selling your skills!" said Mr. Cat. "." Hiss. It seems that there is nothing wrong. "Have you ever considered exchanging labor for food?" Shi Feizhe said. "I'm too tired and don't want to do it!" Uncle Cat's old voice transmitted through his mind. "Besides, I'm just a cat!" he added. The world is unfair, cats have to do the work. But he didn't know that the place Shi Feizhe came to was called a cat cafe, which means making money by using cats. "We don't keep idle people here. Even cats have to know how to catch mice." Shi Feizhe shook his head. "I'm so old, and you still want me to work!" said Uncle Cat angrily. "You are a great demon after all. Some people have to pick up garbage for a living when they are old. It is much harder than you!" Shi Feizhe shook his head and said. This big cat is too lazy. However, as a great demon, Uncle Cat did not steal, rob, or force anything to be bought or sold, which was considered a rare great demon. Shi Feizhe thought for a moment and said, "There is a granary in Yangzhou that needs to recruit a warehouse manager recently. You are a good fit."
This job is not tiring and is very suitable for Mr. Cat to live in his old age. "I don't eat mice!" Uncle Cat shook his head and said, "There's too little meat, not enough to eat." "I'm not asking you to eat rats. The warehouse manager gets paid every month." Shi Feizhe said, "It's enough to support your family and yourself!" "Oh?" Mr. Cat asked again, "Do you beg as much as I do?" "How much do you beg in a month?" Shi Feizhe asked back. Uncle Cat thought for a moment and said, "About a hundred taels? Not sure, sometimes more, sometimes less." "We now pay salaries in yuan, not taels. The purchasing power of one yuan is roughly equal to one tael of silver. A warehouse keeper makes about sixty yuan a month," said Shi Feizhe. "Sixty! Warehouse manager! So many?" Uncle Cat said with his pupils wide open. A job like warehouse management doesn't require much technical skills, but how can one earn sixty taels of silver a month? "Without middlemen, warehouse managers can still get a lot of things." Shi Feizhe said something that Uncle Cat couldn't understand. "It sounds pretty good." said Mr. Cat. Sometimes he could only beg for less than sixty taels a month. There are not so many rich people in the Jianghu who would touch a big cat for five taels of silver. Five taels of silver can buy many kilograms of ribs. "The salary here is based on how hard the work is and how dangerous it is. The average salary is 50-70 yuan." "But some jobs are very hard, the working hours are long, and there are risks. So there will be subsidies." "With the subsidy, it will reach 80-150 yuan." "If you are interested, you can try this kind of work." "A job that is dangerous for ordinary people is not dangerous for you." Shi Feizhe said patiently. It is such a waste to let a big cat at the great demon level guard the warehouse. "For example?" asked Mr. Cat. "For example, Sikou! A Sikou who specializes in killing demons!" Shi Feizhe looked at the big cat and said strangely: "After so many years of development, our place has more abundant materials. Many demons are unwilling to abide by the rules and like to steal." "It's faster to just steal than to work!" When Mr. Cat heard this, he nodded in agreement. I stole it with my own ability, why are you arresting me? Many demon tribes have this idea. Because they have been living like this since ancient times. Does it mean that the new world is different, so they won’t steal anymore? "These monsters are quite annoying and have greatly affected Sikou's working hours." "Your joining will definitely reduce the workload of the Sikou officials." Shi Feizhe said. "Is it a rat demon?" said Mr. Cat. "There are not only rat monsters, there are others, such as bird monsters, cat monsters, weasel monsters and so on." Shi Feizhe said.
"With subsidies, Sikou's monthly salary can reach 150 yuan!" Shi Feizhe added. Sikou often worked overtime, stayed up late, had little rest, and had to fight the enemy. This kind of work is naturally not comparable to that of a warehouse manager. "It's indeed a lot." Uncle Cat nodded and said, "But I still choose warehouse management!" "Why?" Shi Feizhe asked puzzledly. He also wants to create a "Gray Cat Sheriff" to reminisce about his childhood. "Too tired. I'm old." Uncle Cat said, "I'm already past the age of struggling and fighting." “I just want to do what I like.” "Then, wait for the end of life." said Mr. Cat. Facing the cat who chose to lie down, Shi Feizhe didn't know what to say, so he could only say, "If that's the case, I won't force you." "You said you are old and will die soon, so how long can you live?" Shi Feizhe couldn't help but ask again when he heard that Uncle Cat was waiting for the end of his life. "Well," Mr. Cat thought about it carefully and said, "It won't be long. Maybe one or two hundred years!" "." "Are you considered old? You sent me away, but you are not dead yet!" Shi Feizhe couldn't help but say. The life span of a Jianghu man is only 149 years old, and Shi Feizhe's body is already over 30 years old. Uncle Cat lived much longer than him. "But I am a cat, and you are a villain!" said Mr. Cat as a matter of course. He wants to stay here and see this new world full of human touch. You can survive by lying down, why should you work hard? His young and hardworking spirit was left in the past, with A Ye. Uncle Cat chose to lie down in the new world because he had struggled when he was young.
