Inquirer of Teyvat

Chapter 10 Manmin Hall

"Dragon disaster?"

Master Mao is busy in the kitchen of Wanmin Hall every day. When he heard about the dragon disaster, he immediately became interested.

"Yes, Dragon Disaster, a giant blue dragon attacked Mond City."

Of course, Wang Daoyi knew that this giant dragon was Mond's guardian dragon—Twalin, the dragon of the east wind.

But now he is playing an ordinary adventurer who came back from Mond, so the story he tells can only be from the perspective of an ordinary adventurer.

"Are you attacked by a dragon? Didn't their gods punish the dragon?"

The scattered diners nearby were also attracted by Wang Daoyi's words.

Liyue people can't imagine how the capital of a city-state would be attacked by a giant dragon. If a monster dares to attack Liyue Port, the only thing waiting for it is the spear and sword of the Qianyan Army. If it is more serious, it may even be the emperor's. rock gun.

Your Excellency Guyun and countless demon gods are warning all the monsters, in Liyue, please be quiet.

However, someone next to him answered, "Ha, you don't understand this, right? Mond is a free city, and their Fengshen doesn't care about things. It's not like our Lord Yan, who walks with me and other ordinary people."

"This is a city-state without gods, how can it work? If Liyue does not have Lord Yan, I can't even imagine what it will be like!"

Wang Daoyi listened to the discussions around him, and he also felt that the people of Liyue, under the protection of Morax, were indeed much happier than the people of other countries.

Looking at these chattering diners, I don't know what expression Morax will have after his fake death.

"Yes, Mond's Fengshen is the God of Liberty, and generally doesn't care about Mond's affairs, just like our Liyue has seven stars to manage all kinds of affairs, and Mond also has a knight order to manage various affairs of Mond City!"

"Then their knights don't care about the dragon disaster?"

"Come on, it's a pity that the grand master of their knights took most of their knights out on an expedition, so now Mond City has no way to deal with the dragon disaster."

. . . . . . . . . .

The diners are very good at chatting, chatting with them gradually made Wang Daoyi regain the feeling of chatting with the community uncle about the international situation in the park in his previous life.

"Come here, stir-fried pork slices, secret fried radish balls, and Manmintang's signature boiled sea bass. Please use it slowly. As a new customer, remember to give us a review after eating!"

Not long after, Xiangling held the food plate and served the dishes.

Xiangling looked at Wang Daoyi who picked up the chopsticks, his expectant eyes showed a chef's eagerness to get evaluation from diners.

Wang Daoyi was not polite, picked up a piece of meat and put it in his mouth.

The meat slices are fried quickly, dotted with red Jueyun peppers, the spiciness is like a beam of fire in the snow, instantly lighting up the taste buds on the tip of the tongue, making the index finger twitch, and Wang Dao is addicted to it.

Seeing Wang Daoyi with a big appetite, Xiangling also showed a happy smile. For Xiangling, a diner who can eat happily is the greatest compliment to her.

"Haha, there are also fried radish balls and boiled fish, you should try it too."

Wang Dao swallowed a fried radish ball and looked at another dish.

Manmintang's signature boiled sea bass, the boiled fish dishes, the fish fillets are firm and plump, fresh and fragrant, and there is a strange aroma after the entrance, which makes people have endless aftertastes.

When Wang Daoyi asked about this strange fragrance,
Xiangling showed a happy smile: "It's a glass bag. The biggest secret of Wanmintang's boiled fish is to add powdered glass bags to the hot oil. aroma."

Xiangling didn't care that this was Wanmintang's secret recipe, and generously explained Wang Daoyi's doubts.

The two traditional cuisines of Liyue Port [Li Cai] and [Yue Cai] each control half of the food industry. In order to compete, the two sides continue to fight and constantly develop their own supporters.

However, the "Gourmet War", which competes for high and low regardless of deliciousness, directly led to the monopoly of rare ingredients in Liyue Port, which aroused the indignation of countless chefs.

Born into a family of chefs, Xiangling expressed her indignation more directly: she chose to take over the big spoon of her family's "Manmintang".

"There should be no distinction between high and low food!" Xiang Ling, who believes in this principle, is constantly pursuing new breakthroughs in cooking.

Therefore, Xiangling doesn't care about the so-called secret recipe. In her opinion, even if others steal the secret recipe of Wanmintang, they cannot steal the philosophy of Wanmintang.

The fact is exactly the same, Wanmintang has never concealed the so-called secret recipe, even the kitchen is open, and no one can copy the deliciousness of Wanmintang.

"It's really delicious food." Wang Dao patted his stomach and said with emotion after swallowing the last mouthful of food reluctantly.

"Haha, as long as you like, you can come to Wanmin Hall at any time. Although Xiangling is not the chef every day, my master Mao's craftsmanship is also well-known!"

Cleaning up the bowls and chopsticks, Master Mao heard Wang Daoyi's exclamation, and happily advertised for himself,

"Yes, I plan to stay for a long time when I return to Liyue this time, Master Mao, do you know where I can rent a house in Chihuyan?"

"Brother wants to rent a house. It just so happens that Grandma Sun at the end of the street is going to go back to Qiaoyingzhuang for retirement. Her house is going to be rented out. If I'm interested, I'll take me to have a look."

When Master Mao heard that Wang Daoyi was looking for a house, he immediately introduced him enthusiastically.

Grandma Sun at the end of the street runs a teahouse. Recently, because she is getting old and her family members are taking care of tea gardens in Qiaoyingzhuang, she is planning to return to Qiaoyingzhuang for retirement, and the teahouse in Liyuegang is just about to be rented out.

Wang Dao's eyes lit up, and it really didn't take much effort to get here. He thought he would have to search for a long time, but he didn't expect that the biggest housing problem might be solved after a meal.

Immediately, Master Mao told Xiangling to guard the shop, and took Wang Daoyi out to the end of the street.

Liyue is a country that loves tea. Not only Liyue people like to drink tea, but many foreigners also like to drink Liyue tea. The tea garden of Liyue Qiaoyingzhuang exports a large amount of tea to other countries every year.

There are also dozens of teahouses in Liyue Port, such as the famous Heyu Teahouse, which houses the famous Yunhan Society, which is overcrowded every day, and there is also the mysterious Yanshang Teahouse, whose guests are not ordinary people. Common people, or Sanwanbuganggang, storytellers tell some old stories every day.

But Grandma Sun’s Teahouse at the end of Chihuyan Street is obviously not a teahouse like Heyu Teahouse for watching operas, and there are no storytellers here. Working here, the main customers of Grandma Sun's tea room are these port workers.

The cheap tea is also used, and the cheap tea corresponds to the cheap and high-quality tea. The cheap tea with one mora and one porcelain jar is the favorite of port workers.

When Wang Daoyi and Master Mao came to Grandma Sun’s tea room, they just came out of the tea room with a big tea pot in their arms. When they saw Master Mao, the foreman said hello: “Ah, isn’t this Master Mao? Why are you here? Want to buy fish?"

This is not only the largest loading and unloading port in Liyue, but also a large number of fishermen set up stalls here. Every day, a large number of people buy and sell seafood here, and Wanmintang will also purchase some ingredients here.

"Ha, it's Lao Gao. I don't buy fish today. I brought this little brother to Grandma Sun today."

"Looking for Grandma Sun, oh, do you want to see the house? Hey, if Grandma Sun leaves, she won't be able to drink this cheap tea! I'll have to spend an extra tea fee to buy tea from those profiteers. "

The foreman Lao Gao was a little discouraged, and then looked at Wang Daoyi, as if he realized that there was some ambiguity in what he said just now, and quickly explained:
"Ha, brother, I'm not talking about you. Grandma Sun has the cheapest tea in the entire port. If there is no such cheap tea, I, a foreman, will have to spend more money to buy tea from other tea houses. gone."

Dock workers are hard workers, and each worker has to drink a lot of tea every day. Of course, the tea here is not only tea, but also mung bean soup, bayberry soup and the like.

Although the wharf has the most workers in Liyue, it also has the most foremen in Liyue. If you can't even guarantee the tea for the workers when they are busy, then the workers will naturally not follow you.

Therefore, the foremen of the docks always need some good and cheap tea drinks.

Roll, you can roll.

Hearing the foreman's explanation, Wang Daoyi expressed his understanding. In fact, he didn't think too much, he just wanted to find a place to stay first.

"Uncle, don't worry, if Grandma Sun sells this tea room to me, then of course the tea business will continue!"

"Then I wish you, brother, that you can win this tea room! Master Mao, I still have work to do, so I'll go first!"

Hearing Wang Daoyi's words, the foreman nodded happily, greeted Master Mao, and went to the port.

Then Master Mao took Wang Daoyi into the tea room to meet Grandma Sun and explained his intentions.

Grandma Sun is a peaceful old man. After hearing that Wang Daoyi was willing to continue running the teahouse, she agreed to transfer the teahouse to Wang Daoyi.

"I used to be ignorant, and I thought my father was just a dock worker. Later, he married to Qiaoyingzhuang. It was not until his father was dying that he returned to Liyue Port to see him for the last time. So I opened this teahouse at the dock for everyone. The purpose of providing tea is actually to appease my guilt towards my father!"

Grandma Sun told Wang Daoyi the story of her and this tea room, and at the same time promised that her family’s tea garden in Qiaoyingzhuang would continue to supply tea to this tea room, so as to ensure that this tea room can still provide quality goods to the dock workers. Inexpensive tea.

With the help of Master Mao, Grandma Sun and Wang Daoyi went to the General Affairs Department to complete the transfer procedures before the sun went down. Wang Daoyi bought this teahouse between Chihuyan and the wharf at an ultra-low price of 25 Mora. .

Then the three of them went to Wanmintang to have dinner together, to celebrate Wang Daoyi settling down in Eating Huyan, and to celebrate Grandma Sun getting rid of her guilt towards her father.
