Chapter 807 I have a bold idea
Here in the Basin Forest, while the construction engineering team was busy, the procurement team of the Wood Elf clan also rode a carriage all the way and successfully arrived at Xishan City.
Although they had already seen Green Forest City first, they were still shocked by the prosperity of Xishan City at this moment.
When you arrive in the city, the first thing you must do is arrange accommodation. This time you will undoubtedly have to pay for the room, which is another expense.
But this did not affect the good mood of the wood elves at the moment. Walking into the familiar four-person dormitory room, the wood elves dove into the dry and comfortable bed.
"Well, I miss this bed so much. Don't bother me. I don't want to move anymore."
"Then we will go to Manxiang Building by ourselves."
" Manxianglou?"
"Yes, eat hot pot!"
The wood elf who was about to weld himself to death on the bed a second ago, when he heard the three words "eat hot pot", he didn't know where the strength came from, and his whole body stood up straight. The tribesmen around him were all dumbfounded.
"What are you still doing? Let's go and eat hot pot!"
When they heard that they were going to eat hot pot, the wood elves who originally planned to eat hot pot all moved as fast as they could. After gathering together at a fast speed, the three carriages loaded up all the wood elves and drove toward Manxiang Tower aggressively.
The waiter at the entrance of Manxiang Tower knew that there was big business coming when he saw three carriages coming towards this direction.
Seeing the carriage stop, the wood elves got off the carriage and hurriedly greeted them warmly.
"Guests, please come in. I haven't been here for a long time."
When the wood elves heard this, they were immediately happy.
"You have a good memory, and you can still remember it."
"The guest officers are noble-looking. If you see them once, you will never forget them."
The appearance of the wood elves is so recognizable in Dazhou, and coupled with their generous spending, every time they come to Manxiang Tower, it is a big business, and the waiter in the shop can't even remember it.
"Speaking of which, our Manxiang Restaurant just launched a new pot base recently."
"New pot base?!"
The wood elves all brightened up.
“Yes, it’s called tomato pot.”
“Tomato pot? What is that?”
"The bottom of the pot is made of something called tomatoes. This stuff was originally grown on the farm in the rainforest. Later it was transplanted to our side. Recently, the first batch has just matured and been put on the market. The taste is guaranteed. None of the customers have tasted it.”
Just a few steps into the store, the waiter sold the tomato pot.
Now that twenty-one wood elves have arrived, why don’t five tables just sit down?
Although Manxianglou’s business is not bad on weekdays, they can’t stand these wood elves who never ask about the price when ordering food. They are one of the few high-spending regulars at Manxianglou.
This time, they still showed their arrogant side. They did not need any introduction from the waiter and ordered all the dishes they wanted to eat with their eyes closed.
"By the way, we can also serve that tomato pot..."
At this point, the wood elf who was ordering paused for a moment, and he suddenly realized that each of their tables had already ordered one. Mandarin duck pot, plus a tomato pot, two hot pots are placed on a square table, which probably won't fit.
Seeing his embarrassment, the waiter quickly said something.
“Sir, our Manxiang Restaurant now has a three-part pot, a big pot divided into three compartments, including white soup, red soup and tomato.”
“This is good. Then replace them all with three-piece pots.”
"Okay, I'll ask the kitchen to arrange it for you."
While waiting for the food to be served, a wood elf who came to Dazhou for the first time couldn't help but poke the person next to him. companion.
"What are you doing over there?" "Oh, um, that one is the storyteller. What he is talking about now is that the three hundred trapped camp defeated five thousand enemy troops! Your Majesty killed the tyrant dog's head in anger!"< br>
After talking about the latter part, the wood elf became obviously excited.
"I really like listening to this passage."
As he spoke, the wood elf held the plate of melon seeds, happily knocking them while listening to the book.
When I hear the excitement, I will slap the table and cheer with the guests at other tables in the restaurant, just like a local who has gone home. Sitting there in a daze does not feel out of place at all.
The other wood elves who had participated in the exchange group behaved in the same way, which made Locke, the clan leader, really feel a little weird.
It always felt like something was wrong, but he couldn't put it in words.
Soon, the hot pot came, and his attention was diverted to the food in front of him. He had never seen the pot that was divided into three parts. For a moment, he really couldn't figure out where to start.
The wood elves in the exchange group are much more at ease at this moment.
“The bottom of this pot called tomato is absolutely amazing!”
“Hey! How many times have I told you? Put down those vegetables. To eat hot pot, you have to rinse the meat first, and finally Boil vegetables!”
“…”
After a hot pot meal, I was confused by the fragrance.
The wood elves in the exchange group had not tasted this for a long time. In addition, there was a new pot bottom, and everyone was eating so much that they wanted to stuff themselves to death.
Those tribesmen who had never eaten hot pot before felt as if they had opened the door to a new world.
By the end of the meal, everyone was so stunned that they could no longer walk. This was the end.
When paying the bill, Locke was a little nervous at first, but later he felt relieved when he learned that the meal only cost seven silver coins.
[Fortunately, it’s quite cheap. 】
When he rented a car or a house before, he always had bags full of money.
Now he only needed to open the money bag and take out seven silver coins, which made him feel cheap all of a sudden.
As everyone knows, in the Zhou Dynasty, ordinary people went to the cafeteria to have a meal, one meat and two vegetables and a bowl of soup only cost four or five copper coins. In big cities, prices were higher, only six or seven copper coins.
For those who usually come to Manxianglou, if one person eats normally, fifteen or twenty copper coins is about the same. If it is replaced by twenty-one people, it is estimated to be about five silver coins. Like them, eating directly For seven silver coins, that is really luxurious.
Now, each of the twenty-one wood elves has a big belly, and it is obvious that they will not be able to move in a short time.
Now I just sat there and listened to the book.
When the waiter saw this, he didn’t rush them. Instead, he quickly cleared the table and gave them tea, water and melon seeds.
There is nothing to rush, the money has already been included.
They came to Manxianglou at noon and stayed here listening to books, drinking tea and eating melon seeds. It was two o'clock in the afternoon before they were ready to leave.
Before leaving, one of the wood elves suddenly spoke...
"Everyone, I have a bold idea."
"What idea?"
The wood on the side The elf said casually, but at the same time he didn't forget to grab a handful of melon seeds to eat on the way.
“You said, we have 100,000 silver coins in hand, can we just ask Manxianglou to move to our place?”
"..."
