At that moment, Mistya was astonished to find that she seemed to see the crystal-clear eel meat glowing.
Slurp~
“Mistya, if you give me that piece of meat, I can give you a thousand mon~” Saigyouji Yuyuko floated to the side, her eyes full of the eel meat.
But Mistya didn't answer Saigyouji Yuyuko's question at that moment, because she was also completely attracted by the eel meat.
Without exaggeration, Mistya is the best grilled eel chef in the entire Gensokyo, which is why she feels like she's in a dream.
This perfect eel is something that could actually exist in real life.
With her arm holding the chopsticks trembling slightly, Mistya put the eel meat into her mouth amidst Yuyuko Saigyouji's disappointed gaze.
hum-
It felt as if an electric current was coursing through her body, the intense freshness transforming into a wave that completely overwhelmed her.
In a daze, she seemed to be swimming in a delicious ocean of eels, each fish carrying unparalleled flavor, gently devouring her.
Tick tock!
Tears welled in Mistya's eyes; she felt that she had no regrets in this life.
Wow, another one cried while eating.
Xia Xunrao watched this scene with interest. When Venus-quality food is used to make dishes in real life, it produces a kind of glowing effect, and the concentrated flavor can even create hallucinations.
Of the five gold-quality fish caught today—one eel and four catfish—Xia Xun cooked the remaining eel and two catfish to thank everyone and to share the freshness.
Having never tasted anything so delicious before, everyone present was inevitably overwhelmed with emotion when they tried it for the first time.
"The fish you just ate were silver star and gold star fish, respectively. Silver star fish are priced at ten times that of ordinary fish, while gold star fish are priced at a hundred times that."
Xia Xun took the bill back from Mistya and waved it in front of her again.
"Now, do you still think my price is too high?"
"No, no, no! It's not high at all!"
Mistya nearly shook her head off, feeling utterly speechless.
She even felt that Xia Xun in front of her was simply a great person.
Having actually tasted this flavor, Mistya felt that the instincts of a shrewd businessman were being revived.
If it were her, the price would increase a thousandfold, and that would all be because she's doing good deeds.
Seeing this, Xia Xun handed the bill back to Mistya.
"Since there are no problems, let's sign it."
"If you don't have the money, I also support installment payments. You just need to add a little interest each month."
The appearance of the bill pulled Mistya out of the sea of delicious food.
Although she was illiterate, she knew the prices of common fish. Xia Xun's price was very reasonable, but looking at the debt of nearly 50,000 coins, Mistya felt dizzy.
Even before the Night Sparrow Diner ran into trouble, this money represented half of her life savings, and now it's just a small fraction of what she had left.
Night Sparrow Diner is going bankrupt, and her dream is over.
"Waaaaah~"
Overwhelmed with grief, Mistya couldn't help but burst into tears.
"However, I am not a devil after all."
Xia Xun looked at Mistya, who was wailing, and said with a smile, "Considering the current predicament of Night Sparrow Diner."
"I can provide a batch of ingredients initially, and settle the payment later."
"If Nightscrab Diner needs anything in the future, they can also come to my Stardew Valley Farm to purchase it."
"In other words, Mistya, until you pay off your debts, you will be a restaurant owned by Stardew Valley Farm."
Reaching out to pat Mistya's head, who had stopped crying, Xia Xun smiled and said, "How are you, Mistya? Are you touched?"
"I dare not move! I dare not move!" Mistya trembled, but when she saw Xia Xun frown, she quickly nodded: "I'm so touched!"
"Very good, good girl." Xia Xun gently stroked her chin upon hearing this.
Waaaaah~
Mistya was in tears. What should she do? It seemed she had signed a contract of servitude.
Chapter 133 The Three Fairies Who Were Beaten Up and Cried
【Spring 3.18】
Fishing level 5 → 6, unlocking the goldfish rod, fish maker, trap float, and sonar float.
Cultivation +420
Fishing +7164
Money +45600
In the early morning, Xia Xun woke up to a series of messages popping up on the system panel.
Reaching fishing level six unlocks a brand new fishing rod and, most importantly, a bait maker.
As for trap floats and sonar floats, one slows down the time it takes for fish to escape before they are hooked, and the other tells you in advance which fish have taken the bait. Neither of them really suits Xia Xun's taste.
The spiral bait that speeds up the hooking process is still the best.
The extra money from fishing came from the remaining catch sold to Ni Tun Ting after the banquet last night.
With this money deposited into his account, Xia Xun's money successfully broke through the 50,000 mark, reaching 55074.
With the start-up capital secured for the large-scale production of small buckets, the crops in the fields would soon be ripe by the end of the month, and the money for seeds and fertilizer would also need to be prepared.
Then there's the teleportation totem - High Mountain. Xia Xun remembers that it teleports you directly to the vicinity of the mining area.
The subsequent construction of the farm required various minerals, stones and other materials, and Xia Xun could not continue to solve the problem by purchasing them.
Putting money aside, the lack of mining blessings alone would greatly reduce the convenience of his magical practice.
"Yes, it's morning."
Rubbing her eyes, Ibuki Suika, her golden hair slightly disheveled, sat up from Natsumi's arms, looking at the gradually brightening sky outside the window, and stretched her body with her small hands.
Then her gaze fell on Xia Xun, she leaned in front of him and gave him a quick and decisive kiss, and then got out of bed.
Last night, because of Mistya, Xia Xun did not participate in the battle between the human realm and the outside world, and returned home earlier.
Therefore, facing Natsumi's greatly improved physique, Ibuki Suika had a lot of fun and was very satisfied last night.
Incidentally, after taking some time to cut down some more trees, Xia Xun gave fifty snacks to Reimu Hakurei and Marisa Kirisame, who were preparing to go to the Demon World to solve the source of the incident.
"Natsumi, is there anything I can help with at the farm today?" Suika Ibuki asked Natsumi, still dressed.
“Before our house is built, there’s nothing on the farm that needs your help, Cui Xiang. You can go and have fun on your own.” Xia Xun replied, “The farm construction will officially begin once the house is built.”
As she spoke, Xia Xun couldn't help but sigh.
It's been so long since spring started, and he's finally managed to put together the necessary setup for the start of the game.
Stepping out of the room, Xia Xun woke up the small umbrella hanging in the hallway in front of the bedroom door, and led the two of them to wash up, waiting for Okunoda Miyo to arrive.
The four chatted and ate breakfast together, then said their goodbyes and started their workday.
Xia Xun first went to the garrison to briefly explain why he hadn't come yesterday, and then purified the demonic energy of the six people who were injured last night, earning another 4800 coins.
He then said goodbye and, holding Tatara's small umbrella, headed to the blacksmith's shop.
On the way, Xia Xun checked the materials needed for the newly discovered goldfish rod.
In the game, this is the top-tier fishing rod before you master fishing skills.
There is no recipe for it; you need to spend 7500 gold coins at the fish shop to buy it.
Xia Xun did unlock the recipe according to local conditions, but that was all; he didn't even know if the blacksmith's shop could gather all the necessary materials.
Angora Fishing Rod: Angora Ingot x3, Iron Ingot x3, Wood x5
Xia Xun didn't know if Gensokyo had iridium. If the blacksmith shop didn't have it, he could only hope to find it in the mountain cave later.
"Boss, give me 10 copper ingots, 17 iron ingots, and a box of coal," Xia Xun shouted to the blacksmith as he entered the shop.
"It's you again, Xia Xun. I heard you've already started building a farm recently. Impressive!" The boss, with his bronze muscles, said with a smile, then turned to get the goods Xia Xun needed.
A few minutes later, the blacksmith brought Xia Xun the copper ingots, iron ingots, and coal he needed in two trips.
"Boss, do you have iridium tablets?" Xia Xun asked, without much hope, after checking and confirming that everything was correct.
Sure enough, when Xia Xun asked, the boss shook his head blankly; he had never even heard of this kind of mineral.
Seeing this, Xia Xun sighed helplessly and then paid the boss 2190.
"Little Umbrella, I'll be working hard on you from now on."
Xia Xun ruffled Duoduo Liang Xiaosan's head and pleaded, "Upgrade the axe to iron first, then the pickaxe. Don't rush the hoe, take your time."
"Leave it to me with peace of mind, Master!" Tatara Kosuke patted his little chest and said happily.
She is happy as long as she can help her master, and of course, she is happiest when she shelters her master from the wind and rain.
"Okay, then I'll leave it to you, Xiaosan." Xia Xun nodded and then reminded him, "But you must be home for dinner by 7 p.m. every day at the latest, remember?"
"Mmm." Nodding her little head, Tatara Kousan lifted two boxes full of minerals with both hands and walked step by step toward the Hakurei Shrine.
Xia Xun protected her for several hundred meters, and only when he saw that Duoduo Liang was not struggling to carry these things under the small umbrella did he feel completely relieved.
Stardew Valley Farm.
When Xia Xun arrived, she saw the familiar scene again.
The kappa surrounded the field of ripe cucumbers, while Yakumo Ran chatted with Youmu Konpaku, accompanied by Orange Cat.
"Good morning, Youmu, Miss Blue, Orange Cat."
Xia Xun greeted the three of them with a smile, then looked at the kappa that had gathered around him.
"Cucumber God, the cucumbers are ripe again!"
"Cucumber, I'm going to have delicious cucumbers to eat again, cucumber god bless me!"
Pairs of eager eyes were fixed on Xia Xun; the kappa couldn't wait to enjoy the blessing of the cucumber god.
"There will be some today, but the quantity and types will vary."
Xia Xun responded gently to the kappa's expectations, and then went into the farmland to begin the harvest.
Ten square meters of cucumbers yielded a total of 165 regular cucumbers and 54 silver star cucumbers.
The strawberry field, spanning 20 square meters, yielded a total of 826 regular strawberries and 121 Silver Star strawberries.
Stepping out of the farmland, Xia Xun waved to He Cheng Hequ: "Hequ, come here."
Kawashiro Nitori, who had been waiting for a long time, ran quickly to Natsumi and looked at him expectantly with her little head tilted up.
"We can only give you some of the cucumbers that are ripe today. The rest will have to be saved for the banquet after the house is built," Xia Xun said earnestly to He Cheng Hequ.
Upon hearing this, the little guy's expectant expression instantly darkened, and he hung his head dejectedly.
"But I'll still give everyone some strawberries, so don't be so disappointed," Xia Xun said with a smile, ruffling the little guy's drooping head.
"Strawberries~!" Kawashiro Nitori's eyes lit up at the mention of strawberries. Remembering the delicious strawberries Natsumi had given her before, her disappointment vanished instantly.
Although strawberries aren't as delicious as cucumbers, they are still a gift from the great cucumber god and are quite tasty.
Xia Xun then took out 65 ordinary cucumbers, 130 ordinary strawberries, and 65 silver star strawberries, and then secretly slipped two silver star cucumbers to He Cheng He.
Seeing the girl look up in surprise, Xia Xun smiled and said, "Alright, hurry up and distribute them, don't keep everyone waiting."
"Mmm." Kawashiro Nitori nodded, quickly hid the cucumber that Natsumi had given him, and then ran towards the kappa.
A moment later, a dejected sound came from the direction of the kappa.
But with Kawashiro Nitori's announcement, although there were fewer cucumbers, the Cucumber God bestowed a new blessing, and the kappa cheered again.
Xia Xun watched the kappa's disappointment and cheers, seeing each little guy act because of him.
For some inexplicable reason, he suddenly felt as if he could sense the emotions of each of the kappa, as if an invisible thread was connecting them.
But this feeling is fleeting, and may even feel like an illusion.
