Chapter 52: First Hearing of Pantalone (asking for monthly ticket)
"Wang Hao, hurry up, what are you thinking about?"
Xingqiu's shouts came from the front.
Wang Hao shook his head, cleared his mind of thoughts, and then responded, "Coming."
Take a few steps to catch up with the friend in front.
The three of them walked towards Qiaoying Manor, laughing and playing.
Kiu Ying House,
This is the largest tea house in Teyvat, bar none.
The various teas produced here are exported to seven countries.
Wherever there is a place to drink tea, there will definitely be Qiaoyingzhuang tea.
The tea trade has become a pillar of Liyue's commercial trade.
May is the last period of spring tea.
Qiaoying Manor was filled with noise and was full of tea merchants coming to purchase goods.
In the roadside shops, bursts of tea fragrance wafted out.
There are people who make tea, boil tea, stir-fry tea, and press tea cakes.
Of course, what attracted Wang Hao and the other two the most were the appetizing snacks.
The snacks at Qiaoying Manor can be regarded as another new cuisine of Liyue besides Li cuisine and Yue cuisine.
'Gu Gu~'
The three of them looked at each other, and saw the greed in each other's eyes.
"There's no rush anyway, why not eat something first."
"Okay, let's find a teahouse."
The three of them walked towards the teahouse on the roadside.
The cultural customs of Qiaoying Village are actually somewhat different from those of Liyue Harbor.
The teahouses here are more like restaurants.
In addition to refreshments, there are also a variety of exquisite dishes.
"Boss, take the order." Xingqiu shouted loudly. Spending money was his forte.
"Hey, please take a seat. Here is the menu." The boss handed Xingqiu an exquisite menu with patterns on it.
"Steamed meat, desserts, small steamed dumplings, large steamed dumplings, porridge and fried food, order them all. Just order what you like, boss." Xingqiu threw out a stamp without even looking at the menu.
The boss took it and looked at it, then smiled: "Oh, it turns out to be the young master of Feiyun Chamber of Commerce. The three of you go into the box and take a rest. I will make arrangements right away."
After returning the seal to Xingqiu, the boss turned and left.
After sitting down, Xingqiu looked at his two friends with a smile: "My family eats most of the tea from Qiaoying Manor, so Feiyun Chamber of Commerce has some face here."
Wang Hao and Chongyun gave appropriate looks of "you are so awesome".
Feiyun Chamber of Commerce is indeed very prestigious.
After a while, one exquisite dish after another was served.
Steamed chicken feet, steamed spareribs, steamed pork belly, steamed beef brisket,
Egg tarts, coconut balls, red bean paste cakes, crystal cakes,
Shrimp dumplings, steamed bean curd skin, coriander seafood buns,
There are also Shaobao, Custard Bao, and Lotus Seed Bao.
Fried dumplings, salty dumplings, fried spring rolls,
There was also a big pot of preserved egg and lean meat porridge and several plates of exquisite snacks.
【Wow, so rich. 】
【I was already full, so I opened the food delivery app again. 】
【Meituan, start.】
[This is morning tea, so you still have to go to the store to eat. ]
【…】
The rich aroma filled the noses of the three people. Xingqiu took the lead and said, "I won't hold back. Let's eat."
Wang Hao and Chongyun also started eating.
After a while,
The table had been swept away by a storm, and there was nothing left.
There is no other way. The three of them are all martial artists and they are all young. They can eat well.
Plus, after spending a few days in the wild, there was no salty taste in my mouth.
Once you start eating it, you can’t stop.
"Let's go, we'll go with Chongyun to complete the mission."
Xingqiu patted his stomach and was about to stand up.
Suddenly the door of the box was pushed open, a blue figure rushed in, and a hint of bloody smell wafted into the air.
"Who are you?" Xingqiu asked immediately, with the sword in his hand already unsheathed.
It’s no wonder that he reacted so strongly. After all, he had just experienced a life-and-death battle.
Moreover, this person's attire didn't look like that of a waiter. "Ye Lan?" Wang Hao showed a hint of surprise.
That’s right, the person who came was Ye Lan, whom he had met once before.
Ye Lan’s stern expression at the time left him with a deep memory.
"Hmm..." Covering her arm, Ye Lan, who seemed injured, turned around and looked: "Who are you? Wang Hao?"
After they parted two years ago, the two never met again.
Fortunately, neither of them is forgetful and can still remember each other.
Wang Hao quickly stood up and helped Ye Lan sit down: "How did you get hurt?"
Ye Lan's eyes turned red: "We were ambushed by the Fatui."
She knew that Wang Hao was Ningguang's man, and she did not hide it.
"The Fatui? Those people in strange clothes?" Wang Hao had an idea.
Ye Lan raised her beautiful eyes: "You know?"
"Yeah." Wang Hao nodded and recounted his previous encounter with the captain of the Qianyan Army, not missing anything about the demon's resentment.
Ye Lan's expression became even gloomier.
"Sure enough, the Qianyan Army has also noticed it."
"Is the Devil's Resentment really caused by this group of fools?"
Ye Lan hesitated for a moment and said, "They did it very secretly. We haven't found any evidence yet. This time I went deep into the cave alone and was almost surrounded by them."
"Do you need help?" Wang Hao asked, and Xingqiu and Chongyun also looked at Ye Lan.
They didn't know Ye Lan, but they understood that the resentful demon they had encountered before might be the trick of this Fatui.
This is unforgivable for these two young people with a sense of justice.
Therefore, they are also willing to help deal with the Fatui.
Ye Lan shook her head and sneered, "No need for that. Although they were ambushed, I have already exposed their camp. The Qianyan Army will handle it."
The Qianyan Army is a regular army and cannot be moved lightly without a reason, but once there is a reason, they can be mobilized directly to suppress the rebellion.
"Then what are you doing?" Wang Hao was a little confused. Since you had solved everything, why did you escape into this private room?
"The Fatui lost a base, so naturally they want revenge, so I ran away." Ye Lan said with a smile.
She still didn't say why she was injured or why she fled here.
Wang Hao thought about it and thought that it might involve some secrets. With Xingqiu and Chongyun here, she couldn't speak up.
"Okay, so how can we help you?"
"Just stay here for a while and let me rest. I left a code and my people will come to pick me up soon."
Ye Lan sat in a chair, her voice a little rough.
Obviously, her condition was not as good as she appeared.
On the side, Chongyun hesitated for a moment, took out a box, and took out a pill: "This is a secret medicine at home, it can stabilize the injury, you can take one first."
Ye Lan glanced at him and said, "Master Tianheng?"
Chongyun nodded.
Ye Lan looked at the shadow under Wang Hao again, and No. 3 emerged and looked at the pill that Chongyun took out: "It's a secret medicine, no problem."
Ye Lan then took the pill and said, "Thank you very much. I will definitely visit you next time."
Ye Lan's family also came from a family of alchemists.
Perhaps it has some connection with Chongyun's family.
After taking the pill, Ye Lan's face suddenly became more red.
Time passes little by little,
After half an hour,
There was another knock on the door of the private room.
It seems to be of different lengths. What kind of secret language is this?
Ye Lan finally relaxed: "My people have arrived."
As she spoke, she tapped the table in the same rhythmic manner.
The door was pushed open and several very ordinary people walked in.
"Sister, are you alright?"
As soon as they came in, they began to care about Ye Lan's situation.
Ye Lan shook her head: "I'm fine. Have you dealt with Pantalone's people?"
"Two ran away, and the others were solved."
"Well, that's it. Don't let your guard down from now on. Their counterattack will come soon."
