I'm a male god in Liyue

Once the dazed feeling from the dream journey had faded, Xia Zhi rubbed his eyes and sat up in bed.

Open your inventory and see what he amassed in the dream world last night.

31 Twilight Mushrooms, 7 Dream Flowers, and 1 Nightmare Fruit.

After Xia Zhi collected them, he got a total of 39 points.

With the points he gained from crafting [Joyful Incense] over the past few days, he now has 103 usable points.

This is enough to buy a gold item in the store.

I finally made it through the tough beginner phase, and my points started to accumulate slowly.

Xia Zhi sighed, opened the [Shop], found the silver [Corpse Bead] he had looked at before, and bought it for 30 points.

A cool, snow-white, round bead appeared in his hand.

Effect: When a zombie wears this bead, its body can remain cold and its mind can remain intact.

Tomorrow is the Lunar Festival, and Xia Zhi plans to give this [Corpse Bead] to Qi Qi.

With this bead, Qiqi will no longer lose her memory, nor will she dislike hot weather, and she will be able to live like a normal person.

Xia Zhi played with the round bead in her hand for a moment, then put it away along with the [Dream Pillow], changed her clothes, and went downstairs.

At this time, Shen He and Zhu Zi had already gotten up and were cleaning the shop.

Gan Yu had already gotten up. Perhaps feeling it wasn't appropriate for her to just sit there and watch, she also helped wipe the table.

Good morning, boss!

Good morning, boss.

Good morning, Mr. Xia.

Upon seeing Xia Zhi, the three girls greeted him in unison.

Xia Zhi nodded and replied with a smile, "Good morning, everyone. Miss Gan Yu, did you sleep well last night?"

"Yes, Mr. Xia's massage was very effective, and I slept very comfortably. Moreover, I haven't spent much time with Junior Sister Shen He in the past, but we slept together last night and took the opportunity to talk a lot, which helped us get to know each other better."

"That's good. I'll go wash up first, and then we'll go out for breakfast together."

Gan Yu paused for a moment, then asked, "Do you want to eat out?"

Zhu Zi, who was standing next to him, smiled and said, "Yes, we usually eat out. We just pick a random restaurant for breakfast, and Wanmintang for lunch and dinner."

"Oh, I see. I thought Mr. Xia, with such excellent cooking skills, would prefer to eat food he makes himself..."

"Maybe the boss finds it too much trouble. Speaking of which, last night was the first time the boss cooked in the shop. It's all thanks to Miss Gan Yu that we were able to eat such delicious mushroom noodles."

Zhu Zi couldn't help but smack her lips as she recalled the taste of the vegetarian noodles from last night.

I really want to eat it again.

Gan Yu couldn't help but purse her lips as well.

She really wanted to eat that kind of plain noodles.

After a while, Xia Zhi came out from behind the shop and led them out.

As usual, a long queue formed outside the store.

Xia Zhi politely thanked the guests and, after leaving, ran into Grandma Ping and Yao Yao at the intersection not far away.

After exchanging greetings, Xia Zhi asked with a smile, "Grandma Ping came here specifically to see Miss Gan Yu, right?"

"Yes."

Grandma Ping nodded and looked at Gan Yu.

“I went to Yuehai Pavilion last night and questioned Tianquan Ningguang carefully. Things are not as you think.”

Grandma Ping paused for a moment, then told Gan Yu what Ningguang had said the night before.

After listening, Gan Yu remained silent for a while, then said softly, "I was indeed overthinking things... Thank you, True Monarch Ge Chen..."

"No need to be so polite, and you don't need to rush back to work right away. I've already spoken to Ningguang. You should rest well for the next couple of days, and go back after the Lunar Festival when you're in better shape."

"……it is good."

"You're going to have breakfast, right? Go on ahead, I won't keep you any longer."

"Have Grandma Ping and Yao Yao eaten yet?"

"Yaoyao has already eaten! She's even practiced a set of marksmanship!"

"Really? Yao Yao is really hardworking."

"Ok!"

The little girl looked up and a sweet smile appeared on her face.

It's truly heartwarming.

After saying goodbye to Grandma Ping and Yao Yao, we arrived at an old noodle shop in Huyan.

Three bowls of signature braised noodles, and one bowl of vegetarian noodles with greens.

Xia Zhi thought the taste was alright, but the three girls didn't seem to have much of an appetite.

Perhaps his palate has become too discerning, and he looks down on dishes that don't emit light.

"Eat up, the restaurant will be closed tomorrow for the holiday, so I'll cook a nice meal for you."

"really?"

"Yes, I'm also planning to invite a few friends over. Miss Gan Yu, are you free tomorrow?"

"some!"

"That's just right."

The girls' eyes lit up, and they immediately regained their appetite.

After finishing our noodles, we went back to the shop together to begin our business for the day.

With nothing to do, Gan Yu could only sit in the shop, order a juice, and quietly read a book by herself.

For someone who has always been busy with work, this was a rare moment of leisure.

At one point, Zhu Zi suddenly came to the table and lowered his voice.

"Boss, the customer has arrived."

"Ok?"

"It's that customer who dressed as a woman yesterday. Didn't you tell me to tell you?"

"Oh."

"He's sitting right there, it's a pity you can't see him, boss."

"fine."

Xia Zhi glanced at the customer silently and found that he had delicate features and a rather slender build, which explained why it was hard for others to tell that he was dressed as a woman.

Also a talent.

If he has a good voice, he could develop in the direction of Liju opera, learn female singing style, and perhaps become a big star like Miss Yun Jin.

Xia Zhi was only a little curious about this guest. After meeting him in person and satisfying that curiosity, he lost interest.

After all, in his original world, cross-dressing men were not uncommon.

Xia Zhi lowered his head and suddenly remembered the ticket that Xing Xi had given him.

The auction at Mingxingzhai should have already started by now, right?

I wonder if it's lively?

--

"The final item, our store's prized possession—the Glass Lily! Starting price: 100 million Mora! Each bid must be at least 10 Mora!"

"Such an exquisite item! 200 million!"

"300 million!"

"I'll pay 500!"

"800 million! Please, everyone, give our Northern Bank some face!"

“Master Sangge Mahabai doesn’t know anything about the Northern Bank. Good things naturally go to the highest bidder. 1000 million!”

"1200 million!"

"1300 million!"

"3000."

???

……

The entire room fell silent, and everyone turned to look at the woman who had just quoted a high price.
