I'm a male god in Liyue
Page 93
She was looking down, carefully counting the Mora she had just received, checking if the number was correct.
As expected, she was new; she was clearly unfamiliar with the job.
They're really good-looking! I don't know how the shop owner, who's blind, managed to hire such beautiful employees...
After counting the Mora and confirming that there were no problems, Shen He turned around and continued to greet other guests.
He sat down, slowly finished a glass of juice, and then took out the flask he carried with him.
Unscrewing the spout revealed the bottle to be empty, a truly unusual occurrence for a Monde enthusiast.
He picked up his glass, carefully poured the other glass of juice he hadn't drunk from into the wine jug, screwed the spout on, and got up to leave.
After leaving the summer shop, he came to an alchemy shop.
"Guest, what do you need?"
Do you have any small items that can be kept refrigerated for a long time?
"Yes, it's over here."
"Let me see."
After a while, he came out of the alchemy shop, and a small black ring emitting a faint ice elemental power appeared on the wine flask at his waist.
"When we get back to Mondstadt, we'll give those drunkards a little Liyue shock, so they can experience what it feels like when fine wine suddenly becomes tasteless."
Summer shops.
Time passed slowly, and more than an hour had gone by since the business opened in the morning.
The number of customers queuing outside gradually decreased, and Shen He became more and more familiar with his new job.
"Next guest, please come in with me, young master Xingqiu?"
Shen He was about to greet the next guest when she suddenly realized that the person was someone she had just met the day before yesterday.
Xingqiu smiled gently: "Good morning, Miss Shenhe."
Shen He looked at him and asked, "Are you here to see the boss?"
Xingqiu shook his head: "No, I'm just here to drink rainbow juice, like the other guests."
"I see. Please come in with me."
Xingqiu followed Shenhe into the store and curiously looked at the decorations inside.
It's ordinary and unremarkable.
Ok?
Xingqiu suddenly noticed a calligraphy scroll hanging on the wall.
The bright moon rises over the sea; we share this moment though we are far apart.
Although these words are not written very well, the content is very grand and the imagery is very vivid.
Through these few simple words, Xingqiu seemed to see a picture of a bright moon hanging high over the sea, with friends separated by the ends of the earth looking up to admire it together.
Xingqiu read it a few times, her eyes brightening, and she couldn't help but ask, "It's really well written, Miss Shenhe. I wonder who wrote this calligraphy?"
Shen He replied calmly, "That was written by the boss."
Xingqiu was taken aback upon hearing this: "Written by Mr. Xia?"
"Ah."
"But Mr. Xia's eyes..."
"I did not lie to you."
"No, I'm just a little surprised..."
"Please take a seat."
"okay."
Xingqiu sat down at the table and couldn't help but look up at Xia Zhi, who was standing behind the table mixing juice.
"Young Master Xingqiu, would you like one glass of juice or two?"
"A glass of juice, please."
"Please wait."
Shen He glanced at Xing Qiu, then turned and left.
This was the first customer she had ever met who only ordered one glass of juice. Before, all the customers would immediately ask for two glasses of juice, and some even wanted a third.
Shen He lowered his voice as he approached the table.
"Boss, Young Master Xingqiu has come to our shop."
"Oh?"
Xia Zhi had actually seen it through the detection long ago, but he still had to maintain the persona of a blind man and appropriately showed a slight look of surprise on his face.
He said he only came here to drink juice today and only ordered one glass.
"Yes, when we met last time, I said I'd treat him to a drink. You don't need to take his money later."
"Ok."
"Young Master Xingqiu is an honored guest. Go to the kitchen and get a few nicer mooncakes for him to try."
"Ok."
Chapter Ninety-Two: Waiting for a Rabbit to Fall into a Trap
There were two novels on the table.
Xingqiu picked it up and looked at it; it was a new novel published this month by Wanwen Collection.
He hadn't seen it yet; he was planning to go check it out this afternoon, but he didn't expect to see it here first.
Xingqiu opened the book and began to read it with great interest.
I've only read a few pages.
"Young Master Xingqiu, your juice is ready."
Shen He picked up a glass of rainbow juice from the tray, placed it in front of Xing Qiu, and then put a small plate of mooncakes next to the glass, his tone as calm as ever.
"These are mooncakes made by the owner. He just found out you came to the store, so he specially asked me to bring some over for you to try."
"Thank you."
"Please enjoy."
After finishing speaking, Shen He put away the tray and turned to continue his work.
Xingqiu watched her walk away before lowering his head to examine the juice in the glass with curiosity. He found that it really was just as his friends had described, with a color that resembled a rainbow, very vibrant and beautiful.
He picked up the cup and first took a light sniff of the aroma.
A rich fruity aroma permeates the lungs, giving one a familiar feeling, yet one cannot quite place exactly what fruits are contained within.
Xingqiu brought the cup to his lips and took a small sip.
The dreamlike flavor suddenly burst forth on his tongue, causing him to open his eyes wide involuntarily.
Actually, a couple of days ago I heard friends talking about how delicious the juice sold at this newly opened beverage shop was. Although I was somewhat interested, I didn't really think that a juice could be that delicious.
As the second young master of the Flying Cloud Merchant Guild, Xing Qiu had tasted almost all the local specialties from all over the Teyvat continent, so he had the confidence to do so.
But now Xingqiu knows he was wrong.
It turns out that this kind of juice really exists in the world, and its taste is so good that it's hard to describe in words.
No wonder the store is doing so well.
Looking at the juice in his glass, Xingqiu couldn't help but feel a surge of emotion.
Such a rare item is only selling for 100 Mora, which is too cheap. If he were in charge of the business, the price would be at least ten times higher.
I don't know where Mr. Xia got this recipe from, or whether he's willing to sell it to the Feiyun Chamber of Commerce.
But since he's opened the shop himself, he probably doesn't want to...
Xingqiu suppressed the thought that suddenly surfaced in his mind, took another sip of juice, savored it carefully, and then turned his gaze to the plate next to him.
Five round, cake-shaped foods are neatly arranged on the plate.
Just now, Xingqiu heard from Miss Shenhe that this food seems to be called mooncake.
Round and flat, with a golden sheen on its surface, it does indeed look like a full, round moon, which is a fitting name.
Xingqiu picked up a mooncake and, just like with the juice before, sniffed it first.
Although it was no longer a freshly baked hot pancake, it still emitted a faint, enticing aroma.
Xingqiu felt his appetite was easily aroused.
He put the mooncake in his mouth, took a small bite, and suddenly froze for a moment.
The crust looks hard, but it's actually very crispy. It's brushed with egg wash, and it's very fragrant. It melts in your mouth with just a light touch of your tongue, and then the rich flavor of the filling inside comes rushing up.
