"Mr. Xia, you should eat first!"
"Master, you eat first!"
Xia Zhi was both amused and exasperated.
"Why are you being so polite? When you're out having fun, you should be relaxed and at ease."
"Eat quickly!"
"All right……"
Xia Zhi took a bite of Fontainebleau foie gras.
"Cousin, how are you?"
"It tastes good, but there's still a lot of room for improvement."
That's not what we wanted to ask!
"So what do you want to ask?"
Can you replicate it?
"...Of course it can be replicated. I can deduce the recipe just by taking one bite of this dish."
"Great!"
"Boss, try this one! How is it?"
"Simple."
"awesome!"
It seems the meals for the rest of the trip will be Fontaine cuisine.
After lunch, everyone ordered some desserts: Floating Dew White Frost, Crystal Snail Cake, Tangerine Pancake, To the Water God, and Puffed Cream Puffs...
Xia Zhi felt they were all pretty good; we could remake them later.
After paying for the meal, the owner personally escorted everyone to the door.
Xia Ci praised, "Boss, your food is delicious!"
The boss laughed: "I'm glad you all like it."
Xia Ci nodded: "So we're planning to come here for dinner tonight."
The boss's smile froze instantly: "...Welcome..."
After walking a distance, the girls finally couldn't help themselves and burst into laughter again, covering their mouths.
"Xia Ci, you're so mean! You scared the boss so much his face turned pale."
"What's scary? He's just too happy."
"Alas."
Where should we go this afternoon?
"Let's book a room at Wangshu Inn first; noon is when the most people check out."
"it is good!"
The Wangshu Inn is built against a huge tree, which is quite a spectacular sight.
There are stairs to go up, and there is also a lift platform next to it, so you can go up directly like taking an elevator.
Of course, everyone chose the fun lifting platform.
Once you get up there, you'll see the inn's reception desk.
The shopkeeper's name is Huai'an, and he's from Liyue. His wife's name is Felgrass, and she's from Mondstadt, but she speaks fluent Liyue dialect.
Having booked the room, Philgoldette asked with a smile, "Will I pay in Mora or by card?"
"You can also pay by card?"
"Of course, but we only accept cards from Liyue Bank."
"Oh sure."
Xia Zhi took out his own card and handed it over casually.
I didn't expect Miss Ningguang to act so quickly; she has already extended the money exchange's services to the surrounding areas of Liyue City.
Phil Gaudette took the card, glanced at the number, and immediately looked surprised.
"Guest, it turns out you are our most distinguished member at Wangshu Inn. You are entitled to stay in our most luxurious room."
"member?"
When did I become a member? What does "most VIP" mean? Does it mean my membership is different from other members?
"Guest, the current owner of our Wangshu Inn is Lord Tianquanxing."
"..."
Okay, it's alright now.
That said, how many businesses does this rich woman actually own?
Chapter 393 Qiqi still needs to work harder (4K)
Xia Zhi leaned on the railing, basking in the sun while chatting with Huai'an, the owner of Wangshu Inn.
A cat was lazily lying on the stair railing not far away. Its back fur was black and its belly was white.
According to Huai'an, this is the owner's cat, named Awei.
Further away, a dog was running around happily. Qiqi and Yaoyao took animal whistles to tease it, making it roll around and sit down like a cotton ball.
This is also a dog raised by Huai'an itself.
Xia Zhi asked, "Does it have a name?"
"A dog, of course a dog is called Wangcai."
Huai'an laughed.
"It's very well-behaved and clean, and never causes any trouble for the guests. Many guests like to play with it..."
As they were chatting, several people dressed like adventurers walked over.
"Excuse me, Mr. Xia."
Huai'an saw them, smiled apologetically at Xia Zhi, and went to greet the group.
Xia Zhi was a little curious and listened to their conversation from the side.
"Boss from Huai'an!"
"You're back. Did everything go smoothly?"
"Yes, we've thoroughly searched the area around the inn again, and apart from a few slimes, we haven't found any danger."
"Thank you for your hard work, everyone."
"Completing commissions is what we adventurers should do."
"This is the agreed-upon payment."
"The boss from Huai'an is so straightforward!"
The adventurers accepted their payment, confirmed the amount was correct, and left satisfied.
Huai'an saw them off and returned to Xia Zhi's side.
"This is?"
"Mr. Xia, you may not know this, but the area around Wangshu Inn was once a battlefield of the war between demons and gods. Many demons and gods perished here. As a result, some demons often suddenly appear here. If they are not cleared out in time, they will threaten the travelers and merchants who pass by."
"It's so..."
It must have been affected by the remnants of the demon god.
"Mr. Xia, there's no need to worry too much. This place is protected by immortals, so demons can't cause trouble. We also commission adventurers to patrol around the inn every week to eliminate any potential dangers."
The immortal must be a demon.
"Hmm... But since Mr. Huai'an is able to do business in such a dangerous place, he must be quite remarkable himself, right?"
"Oh, what's so special about it? I just know a little bit of martial arts..."
Huai'an repeatedly waved his hands in denial.
Xia Zhi looked at the silver progress bar hanging on his body from God's perspective, then glanced at the silver progress bar hanging on the proprietress Phil Gaudette behind the table not far away, and smiled without saying a word.
The two chatted for a while longer, about all sorts of things.
Xia Zhi finally filled up the progress bar on Huai'an.
The system's voice echoed in his mind.
"Progress bar has reached 100%, Silver Treasure Chest reward obtained."
Xia Zhi glanced at the fresh silver treasure chest in his inventory and opened it directly.
