My restaurant connects to the demon realm, and I've become incredibly wealthy!

Chapter 12.12. The Reason Why the Restaurant Had No Customers
The white fox Yaoyao carried the food to the front hall, where the other creatures were already impatient.

I set out the bowls and chopsticks myself, and just waited to eat.

Seeing that Baihu Yaoyao had prepared the meal, they all rushed to the kitchen to help serve the dishes.

The table was covered with a whole table of food.

"Let's all have a bowl of chicken soup before we eat."

Baihu Yaoyao served each of them a bowl of chicken soup and a chicken leg.

"This soup is so delicious! I haven't been able to eat the girl's cooking these past few days while I've been away from Zhaiyi City. I'm sure I'll miss it," Elder Shen complained as he ate.

I was still thinking to myself, should I learn how to cook from this girl?

Ever since he started eating her food, he really couldn't get used to the food of the demon race.

Then he dismissed the idea, for the secrets of cooking are so precious.

The little girl certainly wouldn't want to be taught.

"Sister, you eat too." The three of them eagerly served food to the white fox, Yaoyao.

Upon hearing Elder Shen's words, the three men merely glanced at him indifferently before wolfing down their food.

Anyway, they won't leave Zhaiyi City, so they can come to my sister's place for dinner anytime.

The white fox Yaoyao chuckled, "You can come back to eat when you return, old man? Why are you the only ones coming to eat these days? Can't the rest of the demon race see my restaurant?"

That's a bit strange.

There must be quite a few demons, right?
Why are there so few people eating here?

Old Shen rolled his eyes at her. "Look at your shabby restaurant! It's drafty everywhere, and all the chairs are crippled. Does it look like a restaurant?"

“Your restaurant is the most dilapidated one in Zhaiyi City. It’s located in a corner and is not conspicuous. It would be strange if people could even see it.”

The demon race is also very particular; they always eat in clean and tidy places.

Her place is more like a beggar's den; it would be strange if any demons came in to eat.

If he hadn't chased that person back that day, and if her dilapidated restaurant hadn't been the only one still lit up in the whole city, he wouldn't have come in to eat.

Looking back now, although the place was run-down, the food was delicious, so he stumbled upon it by sheer luck.

Hearing what Elder Ginseng said, White Fox Yaoyao couldn't help but twitch her eyes several times.

"What do your demon clan's restaurants look like? What are the windows like? I can decorate my restaurant in your demon clan's style!"

She was wondering whether she should renovate a restaurant in the style of a demon race.

Her restaurant is indeed in a terrible state; it's because she didn't have the money to renovate it before.

Now that I have money, shouldn't I take good care of myself?
The old man stroked his beard and smiled, “Our demon clan’s houses are all made by master craftsmen. As long as you pay them enough, they will make them according to your needs and blueprints. As for the windows, they are all covered with mermaid gauze, which is both beautiful and bright.”

Mermaid silk?

Isn't that still gauze?

It's definitely not as bright as the glass she used.

Once she installs the transparent glass window, she'll blind these monsters!
"Are houses very expensive where you live? Do weapon-forging masters also forge weapons?"

That's how it's written in novels.

Master weapon refiners should all be able to make weapons, right?

Unfortunately, she didn't have any suitable weapons yet.

Elder Can nodded, “Master craftsmen can also craft weapons, but there are very few masters who can craft both weapons and houses. Most of them can only craft houses.”

"As for whether a house is expensive or not, it's hard to say. The cheapest one is at least 50 million mid-grade spirit stones."

Fifty million?
Mid-grade spirit stones?

too expensive!
This is ridiculously expensive!

She doesn't have a single spirit stone now!

"So, you demons don't have anything from our human race that you want? I can trade!"

It's okay if she doesn't have spirit stones, she can exchange them for other things!
No matter what, she was determined to get a house for the demon race and put it in her spatial dimension.

The most important thing is to get a weapon that suits you.

Without a weapon in hand, I always feel insecure.

After pondering for a long time, Elder Shen said, "The things of your human race are all so-so. There's really nothing that our demon race needs. However, we can exchange the food you make."

Since ancient times, the demon race has never been good at cooking.

The fact that the demon race now cooks their food is a tradition passed down from their founding ancestor.

The demon race doesn't value food much, but if they encounter delicious food, they'll want to feast.

If this girl's cooking methods were to spread to the demon race, it would cause an unprecedented storm.

White Fox Yaoyao's eyes widened. "Really? I can't speak for anything else, but I'm absolutely amazing at cooking! If I had the ingredients, I could prepare a whole Manchu Han Imperial Feast for you!"

The Dragon Kingdom has never lacked delicious food!

She refused to believe that her culinary skills couldn't win over these demons who had never tasted good food before. Bah! Demons, huh?

The old man chuckled and said, "Then when you meet a master craftsman, trade your delicious food for a house. I believe they will agree."

"Okay!" Bai Hu Yaoyao smiled and personally brewed a pot of tea.

Happy!
She has a place to live!

Watching the three boys sitting quietly to the side, she drank tea with Elder Shen, and the group chatted casually.

Through chatting, Baihu Yaoyao also learned a lot about the demon race.

The white fox Yaoyao sighed inwardly, "Indeed, the universe is vast and full of wonders."

She really longed for the life of the demon race; she wished she could go to the demon race.

Seeing the three boys chatting happily with the white fox Yaoyao, Elder Shen felt gratified and enjoyed the moment of peace.

These are peaceful days that even the demon race cannot enjoy!
When Shen Lao saw Bai Hu Yaoyao sitting there drinking tea with such a mature demeanor, he couldn't help but find it amusing.

This human baby is so well-behaved and adorable.

Faced with such an adorable human female cub, even without food in exchange, what demon man would refuse her request?

Plenty of men would be eager to build her a house.

In fact, he could also have the weapon refiners of the Ginseng Clan refine a house for her.

He said these things today simply to make this human child understand that everything requires an equal exchange.

To prevent her from developing a habit of wanting something for nothing.

In the demon race, the females have long been accustomed to reaping without sowing, and to beating, scolding, and abusing men.

This is not a good habit.

He didn't want a perfectly healthy human child to go astray.

Many men in the demon race nowadays would rather remain single, even if it means taking a soothing pill with severe side effects during periods of mania, than find a woman to form a partnership with.

Once a mate is formed, the female has absolute control over her man, regardless of whether he is right or wrong.

Even if a female kills a man, no one will dare to say a word.

A female kills one mate, yet she still has countless mates.

Men are different. Once a man chooses a female partner, she will be his only wife for the rest of his life.

What he least wanted to see was the increasingly unruly and arrogant behavior of the female demons.

He also didn't want the fine men of the demon race to take those soothing pills out of fear of females.

The higher a demon man's talent, the lower his fertility.

If a man takes too many of those pills with severe side effects, it can render him infertile, or in severe cases, cause him to explode and die from bipolar disorder.

How many demon men die because they don't have a partner, and their bipolar disorder progresses directly to bipolar disorder?
He was somewhat worried about the future of the demon race.

I glanced at the white fox Yaoyao; perhaps her appearance was a turning point for the demon race.

The food she makes carries an almost outrageously pure spiritual energy.

This special spiritual energy can not only be absorbed by people whose spiritual roots have been destroyed and who are unable to cultivate, but it can also heal the damage left by the demon male due to bipolar disorder.

This is an incredible thing.

This girl is still young; we can't let those unscrupulous demons target her.

Elder Shen's expression turned serious. "Girl, when more demons come to eat, you won't be able to survive without the ability to protect yourself. Have you really thought about how to attract more customers?"

As more people dine there, they'll naturally notice her unusual qualities. It's only a matter of time before she attracts the attention of those with ulterior motives.

It would be even worse if we were targeted by things other than the demon race.

Men of the demon race cherish women like treasures.

There are also those who harbor ill intentions and are good at fighting. These people will also harm women and will not listen to any profound principles.

This girl has no cultivation at all; she's just a mortal cub. She's the ideal partner that all demon men would fight tooth and nail for.

If those demons were to cause trouble, it would be really difficult to handle.

Their Ginseng Clan, Wolf Clan, and Tiger Clan live in too remote an area, and their strength is far inferior to that of the Holy Demon Empire.

The Holy Demon Empire is inhabited by descendants of ancient divine beasts, who are incredibly powerful and should be able to protect this human child.

If all else fails, he will report the girl's existence to the Demon Emperor of the Holy Demon Empire and request a guard to protect her safety.

This human girl was simply too precious to their demon race.

He wouldn't allow any accidents to happen.

"If they come looking for trouble, I'll just fight them back! It's not like I'm afraid of them!"

Bai Hu Yaoyao raised an eyebrow. She had cultivated her Five Elements Technique to level six, so she was fully capable of protecting herself.

Could this old man not tell that she had already mastered cultivation?
Doesn't this mean she can hide her true strength and play dumb to outsmart others?

Hu Qingye patted his chest, "My sister has the protection of my tiger clan! Let's see who dares to touch her!"

"And my wolf clan will protect my sister too!" Wolf Fusheng bared his teeth.

Not to be outdone, Can Wuyou retorted, "I'm here for you! I'll protect my sister too."

Seeing the three guys protecting her, Baihu Yaoyao felt a warmth in her heart.

In her past life, she was an orphan who was taken to a deserted island for secret training when she was seven years old, where she teetered on the brink of life and death every day.

People die there every day. Even the warmest heart can turn into a cold stone if it stays there for too long. In her previous life, she never felt any warmth from the world.

After becoming a mercenary, her heart grew colder and harder, and she never opened her heart to outsiders.

Unexpectedly, I found my heart warmed by these demons here.

"Okay! You protect my sister, and I'll protect you too."

It wouldn't be bad to adopt these three boys as my younger brothers!
Perhaps, it would be good to be an ordinary person in this ancient world, far away from all the fighting and killing.

She also longed to experience the life of an ordinary person.

"We will all protect our sister."

As they talked, the group burst into laughter and playful banter.

As the old man stroked his beard and watched the children playing together, his worry intensified.

It seems he needs to find a time to report this girl's existence to the Demon Emperor.

After all, her existence is a very precious treasure to their demon race, and they cannot afford to have even the slightest mishap.

Seeing that it was getting late, Elder Shen and his group left, leaving behind a few ginseng roots and two very special golden snow lingzhi mushrooms.

The Ganoderma lucidum is crystal clear, like icicles.

The spores of Ganoderma lucidum are covered with countless golden threads.

The old man said that this is a unique golden silk snow lingzhi from their ginseng clan, and its medicinal effects are hundreds of times stronger than ordinary snow lingzhi.

White Fox Yaoyao closed the door, hugged all the good stuff, and went into the space.

The Linglong Fruit Tree and the Ice Spirit Fruit have already taken root in the ground.

The fruit was covered with glistening dewdrops, shimmering with light.

They then planted all the ginseng fruits in the soil.

The remaining ginseng and lingzhi were all wrapped in cloth and placed on the ground. Even without the protection of the cold jade box, these things would not be damaged in the space.

They then took out the seeds the old man had brought and scattered them on the ground.

The seeds the old man brought included rice, and the grains were much larger than the rice she usually ate.

This is probably rice unique to the demon race.
First, plant rice in the soil, and the reclaimed land will be filled with rice.

They cleared several more acres of land, intending to plant the seeds of the medicinal herbs.

They cleared a few more acres of wasteland, intending to plant those seeds of unknown origin.

This packet of seeds doesn't look like anything at first glance; you'll only know what they are when they grow up.

call!
"This kind of land is really not easy to work in!"

The white fox Yaoyao stayed in the space all night and finally managed to plant all the seeds.

Once the seeds sprout, she will transplant them into the room outside.

Let's see if these seeds can survive outdoors.

Even with the blessing of the Five Elements Technique, he was exhausted after working in the fields all night, so he simply meditated and cultivated in the space.

The Five Elements Technique circulated through his body for several cycles, and all his fatigue vanished.

The white fox Yaoyao opened her eyes, "The Five Elements Technique has actually been upgraded again? I feel so refreshed!"

I stood up, stretched, and then took a shower in the room.

As soon as I stepped out of the space, I was so cold that I shivered.

She didn't light the charcoal brazier last night, and the restaurant was frighteningly cold.

I went to the kitchen and saw that the water there had frozen into ice cubes.

"Luckily, I have space, so I don't have to worry about drinking water."

There used to be a well in the backyard of the restaurant, but it has since dried up.

If she wanted to drink water, she had to go to the town's water cellar to fetch it.

Even getting water is inconvenient in the dead of winter.

To make it easier for myself to get water, I will dig a deeper well in the backyard next spring.

I made an egg drop soup in the kitchen and reheated the steamed buns I made yesterday.

I also made a small side dish of pickled vegetables.

Breakfast was solved so simply.

Its daybreak.

The lanterns at the entrance were also turned off.

She checked the time; the lights went out at 5 a.m. every morning.

Baihu Yaoyao opened the door, and the entire town was covered in snow, with the houses looking like white mushrooms.

Many people have already started clearing the snow in front of their houses.

"The snow has finally stopped!"

Seeing a thick layer of snow piled up in front of the door, the white fox Yaoyao also began to shovel the snow.

Before the snow was even cleared, Grandpa Gu and his group arrived.

Seeing that she was shoveling snow, the others also grabbed brooms and helped her.

"Yaoyao! Let's get the snow off the roof first, so it doesn't collapse the house."

As they spoke, several people took ladders and climbed onto the roof.

As the snow on the roof was gradually cleared away, the white fox Yaoyao finally felt relieved.

At least temporarily, her house won't collapse.

"Thank you, Grandpa Gu." Bai Hu Yaoyao quickly brewed a pot of hot tea for them.

After drinking several bowls of hot tea, the group resumed renovations.
