I'm Invincible in the World of the Reincarnated Blood Prince

The slightly rippling black liquid in the white porcelain cup continued to exude a strong bitter aura. Cecilia hesitated for a long time, really not knowing how to drink it.

Finally, thinking that this was something she bought for 300 yuan, she closed her eyes, pressed her lips to the rim of the cup, and took a sip.

Frowning tightly, Cecilia put the cup back on the table.

Bitter, really damn bitter...

No matter how many times she drank it, she still couldn't understand why someone would pay such an expensive price to sit in a coffee shop just to drink a cup of extremely bad drink.

Petty bourgeoisie?Superior?

Perhaps this is the trap of consumerism.

On the opposite side, Gu Yanxi leaned her long staff aside, imitating Cecilia's example, holding up the porcelain cup with both hands, took a sip, frowned as well, and put the cup back on the small saucer.

It can be seen that her glass of milk and sugar should not taste much better than Cecilia's.

"It's so hard to drink..." Gu Yanxi muttered in a low voice.

"Then don't drink."

Cecilia nodded slightly, then raised her hand and shouted, "Service...Miss Maid, can I trouble you to come here?"

Hearing Cecilia's "not aristocratic" words, even an experienced reception maid couldn't help being a little stunned.

She glanced vaguely at the silver bell on the table, as if asking: Can you ring the bell yourself if you have something to do?

However, out of professionalism, she still walked quickly to the table, bowed slightly, and showed an impeccable smile: "Miss, what are your orders?"

"I have something, I want to talk to your store manager." Cecilia raised her head and said calmly.

Although she is also dressed as a maid, her speech is calm, her eyes are indifferent, and her gestures exude the unique aura of a superior person. The reception maid did not dare to be careless, and hurriedly bowed again: "Of course it's okay, our shop The boss is on the second floor, please allow me to ask for instructions first."

After receiving Cecilia's nod, the reception maid hurried up to the second floor.

Not long after, a girl in a dark red dress that dragged the floor walked down the steps slowly, holding the hem of the skirt with both hands.

From the moment the girl appeared, Cecilia's eyes followed her closely, until the girl came to the table, twisted her skirt with both hands and bowed slightly, then Cecilia stood up, and also lifted her skirt Put it down, and returned a perfect and impeccable aristocratic salute.

"Guys, I'm Phoenix Maple, the eldest daughter of Viscount Robbins, and also the owner of this small shop. I heard from Nina that the two of you have something to discuss with me, may I What's the matter?"

The girl's voice was lazy, with a touch of aristocratic arrogance. In addition, as the name suggests, she also had fiery red long hair, which spread like waves and fell to the back of her waist. Her pupils were green, like Dazzling and gorgeous like emerald.

The facial features are exquisite and charming, worthy of her aristocratic status, this is a very beautiful girl, and the weight on her chest is also very heavy, she looks like the kind with high defense power.

Although there was nothing wrong with her words, Cecilia still felt a slight contempt from her attitude.

Maybe it's because I'm wearing a maid outfit?

"Cecilia, adventurer." Looking directly into Phoenix's eyes, Cecilia said expressionlessly.

"Adventurer? How is it possible that you are not a nobleman?" Hearing Cecilia's answer, Phoenix frowned suddenly, with a hint of disappointment in his eyes, and asked in an exaggerated tone.

Seeing her reaction, Cecilia was even more upset.

If the truth can be told, she is of course aristocratic too.

And judging from Esther's reaction and attitude, it is not impossible that the original owner of his current body might be some powerful nobleman, such as an earl, marquis, or even a duke.

Compared with these, what is a little viscount's daughter?

It's a pity that Cecilia is now in the human kingdom, and she is an aristocrat of the blood race. Judging from the hostile and hostile attitude of humans towards the blood race, she can only pretend to be an adventurer without any background.

"Otherwise? Are only nobles allowed to enter your store?" Cecilia asked lightly in response to Phoenix's exaggerated reaction.

"Okay," Phoenix sighed softly, and his whole body relaxed as if out of strength.

After unloading the nobleman's psychological burden, she rubbed her sore shoulders and asked arrogantly casually: "Then, this noble adventurer, what do you want to say to me?"

After a pause, she seemed to remember something, and continued to add: "By the way, if you want to apply for the job, you can only forgive me for rejecting it in advance. Our store has enough manpower, and there is no shortage of washing dishes now." The sweeping maid."

"Of course it's not what you think. As far as I know, Miss Phoenix, your store should be on the verge of bankruptcy, right? So, any maid with a brain would probably not consider you here apply."

Since the other party spoke so impolitely and regarded herself and Gu Yanxi as chore maids who wanted to come here to work, Cecilia would naturally not be polite to her any more. She pursed her lips and said with a sneer.

"Oh? Then what exactly do you want to do? Also, who told you that my store is about to close down?" Phoenix frowned, slightly annoyed.

After a moment of silence, Cecilia organized the language in her mind, picked up the black coffee she had only taken a sip of, and while stroking the smooth gold-encrusted cup rim with her fingers, said softly:

"I am a barista, a pastry chef, a blacksmith, and an animal trainer. I want to open my own coffee shop, but I still lack a lot of professional equipment. According to the people in the guild, your Because of the poor management of this store, it has already been closed a few months ago, so I came here to ask, can you sell the equipment in your store to me?"

"Of course, it would be even better if it could be cheaper."

Chapter 170 Three Bargaining

"Miss, here's your black tea."

In the reception room on the second floor of the "Silver Moon" coffee shop, the maid brought up a cup of freshly brewed black tea.

"Thank you."

Cecilia sat on the soft velvet sofa and reached out to take the tea brought by the maid. Feeling a little hot, she put it on the coffee table in front of her.

A thin layer of white air emerges from the mouth of the cup, and the air is filled with a faint sweetness of honey and a bit of the unique aroma of scented tea.

Judging from the appearance, this cup of black tea used to receive guests is undoubtedly better than the drinks sold in the store.

On the other side of the low table, Phoenix gracefully picked up the teacup, took a sip as if not afraid of the heat, then turned his gaze to Cecilia who was sitting opposite him, and said:

"Okay, let me introduce the current situation. You mean, you are a professional barista and want to open a coffee shop of your own in the imperial city, but you don't have the equipment, so you want to come to me to buy ready-made coffee shops. Yes, am I right?"

Cecilia glanced at her, nodded slightly, and said lightly, "It's roughly like this."

"Before proceeding to the next topic, I would like to ask you a question, Miss Adventurer, what do you think of the coffee in my shop?"

She was still discussing business, but Cecilia didn't expect that the next second, the daughter of the viscount whose eyes were shining like emeralds suddenly asked such a question.

"Honestly, the taste is really a shame."

Thinking back to the cup of black coffee that was so sad just now, Cecilia hesitated for a moment, but decided to tell the truth.

"Alas... I should have recognized the reality long ago." Phoenix leaned back in the chair, raised his hand to caress his forehead, and sighed sadly.

Seeing her like this, Cecilia felt a little more confident in her heart, so she took advantage of the victory and continued to persuade: "Miss Phoenix, I don't know what the revenue of your store is, but as far as I am concerned today, From what you can see, it should be beyond your means.”

Phoenix nodded slowly.

"In this case, why not stop the loss in time and switch to other industries? For example, the potions, equipment, and various props that adventurers need most. Although they are civilians, they have a lot of money, and most of them are also like As generous as the nobles, as long as you are willing to do it, you will not worry about earning a considerable income."

Recalling the crazy scene of long queues in front of the restricted-purchase potion shop, Cecilia continued.

She seldom talks so much about NPCs, but this batch of equipment is really crucial.

As long as she has this batch of equipment, her maid coffee shop can open quickly, and with a little marketing promotion, she can easily sell 100 cups of coffee to complete this side task.

At that time, his 20th to 25th level purple epic maid suit will be completely available.

"You're right, it's time to let go of your obsession."

Phoenix nodded again, and had to admit that what Cecilia said was indeed very reasonable.

"Then let's talk about the price." Cecilia picked up the white porcelain teacup, took a sip of the warm black tea, and said with confidence.

In the next ten minutes, under the leadership of the ceremonial maid, Cecilia came to the operation room of the back kitchen of this coffee shop, and carefully selected every piece of equipment she currently needed.

Tea cups, tableware, coffee pots, heating racks, small stone mills for grinding coffee beans... In addition to these necessary equipment, this store even has a crystal dessert display cabinet, an oven, and An ice maker powered by magic.

Moreover, because the main customer orientation at the beginning was the aristocratic crowd, the tableware and utensils in the "Silver Moon" cafe are basically all of the highest quality. Even the most common dinner plates and porcelain cups are inlaid with precious metals. Decoration, let alone practicality, just look at the shape, it can be directly displayed as a work of art.

Of course, the store that Cecilia wants to open mainly sells 100 cups of handmade coffee. Many things in the operation room, such as dessert cabinets and ovens, are completely unusable, and buying them is a waste.

However, considering that she also has a sub-profession as a pastry chef, and to plan ahead, in order to avoid situations where she would suddenly need it in the future, Cecilia finally spent a lot of money to buy these expensive big toys.

After picking and picking with Gu Yanxi for more than half an hour, after handing over the list of required items to the maid, Cecilia returned to the reception room on the second floor, picked up the cold tea, and waited for the final quotation.

"Miss, hello, according to the calculations of our financial staff, the total price of the items you selected is 3675 gold coins."

It's just a simple addition and subtraction algorithm, and it doesn't take long. Soon, the maid came to Cecilia with the list, leaned down and said softly.

"3675 gold coins, Miss Cecilia, can you accept this price?" Phoenix asked casually while taking the list from the maid.

Three thousand six hundred gold coins, equivalent to soft sister coins, which is nearly 75 yuan.

Having just gone through the auction, it really wasn't particularly difficult for Cecilia to take out the money.

However, the price calculated by the maid is the original price of these items. Cecilia is buying second-hand items now, and she must be unwilling to pay for new items.

"I can't accept it, I want a [-]% discount." Putting down the teacup, she said expressionlessly.

"Tableware is not a depreciation item. I can suffer a little bit and give you a [-]% discount." Phoenix also refused to give in.

"Then [-]% off."

If you miss this village, maybe there will be no such store.

The operating room of Silver Moon Cafe is well-equipped with basically everything. Cecilia doesn't want to give up easily, but she also doesn't want to be taken advantage of.

"[-]% off, this is my last patience. If you still can't accept it, then I can only deeply regret this transaction." Phoenix sighed softly.

"Miss Phoenix, please think clearly, the person who is anxious now is not me, but you. If I'm not wrong, your store will lose a lot of money every day it's open, right?" Seth Celia asked lightly.

"Not many, just a few dozen gold coins." Although she agreed with Cecilia's statement, from the tone of her voice, Phoenix didn't seem to take these dozens of gold coins seriously.

"Let's take a step back, [-]% off, if you still can't accept it, then I might really feel sorry for taking up your time."

Sighing lightly, Cecilia tried to say that if Phoenix still couldn't accept it, then she could only buy this batch of equipment at a [-]% discount.

This time, Phoenix frowned and pondered for a long time, until Cecilia got a little impatient, then stood up, stretched out her hand, and said with a smile:

"Deal, Miss Cecilia, wish us a happy cooperation."

Chapter 170 The fourth deepening mutation

The price has been negotiated, and the [-]% discount is not too expensive.

After all, the equipment in the Silver Moon Cafe is all very luxurious and high-end products, and because the business has not been very good, the condition is also very new. After cleaning, there is no trace of being used at all. .

With only half a million cash, you can buy all the items you need for Qikai Cafe. After completing the mission, you can get another set of level 20 purple epic equipment, which is basically the same as the pie in the sky.

Even Cecilia, who was always unsmiling on weekdays, couldn't help showing a knowing smile this time.

This time it was really big.

However, even with a 7.5% discount, nearly [-] gold coins are still not a small amount that can be collected at will.

Cecilia doesn't have so many gold coins on her body, but any normal person should not carry thousands of gold coins on her body.

After much deliberation, I still can only ask the little persimmon dog to borrow some first.
