Soon, the shop manager's daughter seemed to notice something. She turned her head and looked towards the door, where she saw Hisagi Shinobu and Su Hao.
"Yo."
Su Hao greeted them, and so did Hisagi Shinobu.
The store manager's daughter apologized to the customer, then rushed over and looked at Su Hao and Jiu Qiren, saying, "You two are back? Why are you back so soon?"
"Didn't you say you were going to Mondstadt? How come you're back in less than two weeks???"
The shop manager's daughter was genuinely surprised, because Su Hao had specifically told her before going to Mondstadt that he was going there.
Meanwhile, the store manager's daughter was managing Guiyan Pavilion while also diligently helping Su Hao collect materials.
Su Hao was his benefactor. If it weren't for him, Guiyan Pavilion would not have been nominated by Prince Yan twice.
This is a great honor. His peers envy him. He only helped sell the Ancient Rock Dragon Lizard scales and lost a little bit of his own profit, but in return, he received a special praise from the Rock King.
Look at them now. After being praised by Lord Yan, Guiyan Pavilion is so busy that it's taking off. In just over ten days, they've earned several hundred million in Mora.
The store manager's daughter is so happy she wakes up laughing in her dreams.
"There's a reason I came back early." Su Hao was also helpless; he hadn't originally planned to return so soon.
His activity area in Mondstadt was limited to the city itself. He had originally planned to stay in Mondstadt a little longer to see the sights there.
As a result of a message from the lady, he hurriedly had to return to Inazuma, and he couldn't even stay in Liyue for long.
Is there a reason for this?
Seeing that Su Hao wasn't going to say anything, the shop manager's daughter didn't press him further. Instead, she ran towards the back of the shop, calling out as she ran, "Wait for me a minute!!!"
Soon, the store manager's daughter ran back, carrying two bags in her hands.
Seeing her slightly flushed face, Su Hao and Jiu Qiren quickly went over and took the things from her hands.
"Huff, huff, huff." The shop manager's daughter was panting heavily. She said, "This... is a bit heavy... and... there are two portions of ingredients."
"Although I don't know what type of weapon you want to forge, it's always good to have extra materials."
Su Hao opened one of the bags and found that it contained forging materials that he had entrusted to the shop manager's daughter, with various ores arranged inside.
Hisagi Shinobu also opened it and took a look, then nodded slightly to Su Hao.
The situation was clearly the same here; the shopkeeper's daughter had prepared two sets of materials for companion weapons for Su Hao.
"Unfortunately, I didn't obtain the Blood Jade Branch." The shopkeeper's daughter sighed. "It's said that Lady Ningguang has one, but she herself needs the Blood Jade Branch, so I can't get it for her."
"So you can only rely on your own abilities."
The shopkeeper's daughter sighed, seemingly helpless. If she could, she seemed to want to help Su Hao obtain the Blood Jade Branch from Ningguang.
"Thank you." Su Hao was quite moved at this moment because the shopkeeper's daughter had prepared two sets of materials for his companion weapon.
This gave Su Hao an extra forging opportunity. If the first forging failed, he could seamlessly continue with the next forging attempt.
Furthermore, when they first met, Zhongli mentioned that the materials used for companion weapons were not simple, and some were even special products from the Layered Rock Abyss.
Now that the Abyss of Layered Rocks has been sealed by the Seven Stars, even a mineral merchant like the shopkeeper's daughter has no way to conjure things out of thin air.
In other words, the material that the store manager's daughter gave to Su Hao was extremely valuable.
This wasn't something Mora could easily buy; she had to use her connections to gather it from door to door.
"There's nothing to thank me for." The shop manager's daughter waved her hand dismissively, because Guiyan Pavilion owed its current success to Su Hao's help.
If someone else had received this benefit, they would probably have tried their best to help Su Hao accomplish his task.
After all, looking at the overall transaction with Su Hao, Guiyan Pavilion did gain a lot, both in terms of reputation and Mora.
Therefore, if the store manager's daughter doesn't help Su Hao prepare an extra set of materials, she will definitely be ridiculed by her peers.
Furthermore, if the Layered Rock Abyss hadn't been sealed by the Seven Stars, the shopkeeper's daughter would have been preparing seven or eight sets of weapon forging materials for Su Hao.
But after searching for materials from door to door, they could only gather two copies, one of which was sponsored by Ningguang.
"Oh, right." The shopkeeper's daughter suddenly remembered something and looked at Su Hao, continuing, "If you have any other precious materials similar to the Ancient Rock Dragon Lizard scales, you can give them to me to sell."
"I have many distribution channels here, you can't just turn around and ship your goods to another company!!!"
Seeing the shopkeeper's daughter's expression, Su Hao smiled and nodded, saying, "Don't worry, if I really acquire any valuable materials that I can sell, I will give them to you."
"However, there is one thing I do have that I really want to sell, but you can't take it with Mora."
The store manager's daughter blinked, looking at Su Hao with a curious gaze.
It was as if she was saying, "What exactly is it that Mora can't buy?" She wanted to see for herself today.
But Su Hao ultimately didn't take out that item. He simply said a few words to the shopkeeper's daughter and then prepared to leave.
Since it was getting late, Su Hao planned to have dinner with Jiu Qiren at Wanmintang and then go home to rest.
The store manager's daughter didn't try to stop them, but simply said that they should come visit often when they had time, and it would be even better if they could bring Ella next time.
For some reason, the shop manager's daughter had a strange fondness for Ella, which made Su Hao suspect that she was a lesbian and wanted to have a lesbian relationship with Ella!
If that's the case, then Su Hao won't agree; Ella can only be his!
PS: "Ah!!!! I'm so tired."
"Let me give you a brief complaint. I was busy all day yesterday. I got up at six in the morning to go to the ancestral hall, and at ten in the morning, I represented my family to sit at the toasting table. Then I went around toasting people and drank four cups of baijiu."
"That's not all. After drinking baijiu, I can't sleep. I spent the afternoon with my girlfriend, had dinner, and didn't get home until 7 or 8 o'clock before I could go to sleep. Then I rushed to get up at 3 o'clock to write, and now my hands are in excruciating pain."
"Go back to sleep now, I'll write 13,000 words this afternoon! I need to make up for the lost word count!!"
Chapter 184 Feeding Guoba Concentrated Resin!
At dusk, Su Hao and Jiu Qiren arrived at Wanmin Hall, both of them feeling a bit hungry.
I plan to eat something first, and then head to Mount Aozang overnight to visit Lord Liuyun Jiefeng and Shenhe.
"Lululu!~"
Just as Su Hao and Jiu Qiren arrived at Wanmintang, Guoba came over. He looked at Su Hao and made a strange sound, as if to say, "Long time no see."
"Huh?! Su Hao! Ren?!"
A familiar voice came from behind; it was the cook, Xiangling, who was carrying a gun and a backpack, clearly intending to go out.
"Long time no see, Xiangling." Jiuqi Ren greeted her, then looked at Xiangling's attire and asked with some confusion, "Are you going out to collect ingredients?"
Just by looking at Xiangling's outfit, you can tell she's off to gather ingredients again. As a renowned cook in Liyue, she's always thinking about how to prepare the next dish.
It's perfectly normal for Xiangling to want to go out and collect ingredients right now.
Normal as it may seem, Hisahi Shinobu was still somewhat disappointed because she really wanted to eat the food that Kaoru made.
The other party was about to leave, which was naturally very disappointing.
"Hi~"
Su Hao also greeted them, and then immediately went to [Suppress] the Demon God of the Furnace and began to beat him up like crazy.
Compared to Xiangling, Su Hao preferred stroking Guoba; it was furry and felt very comfortable.
"Lululu~~~"
Guoba seems to like this too.
Xiangling also came over, looking at Su Hao and Jiuqi with some surprise, and said, "Didn't you go to Mondstadt? How come you're back so soon? I was planning to go there to find you."
"I heard there's a dragon plague over there. I've been thinking about whether I should help you hunt dragons since you're there too. I don't know the best way to process the meat of the Ancient Rock Dragon Lizard."
"So I want to see how similar [dragon meat] differs from the meat of the Ancient Rock Dragon Lizard."
Xiangling was clearly excited when she mentioned this, as the Mondstadt people were terrified of the dragons.
But in Xiangling's eyes, isn't this just food?! Even if dragons are indeed very strong, wasn't a powerful Ancient Rock Dragon Lizard still killed by the immortal and Su Hao working together?
Therefore, now that Xiangling has finished packing her things, she plans to go to Mondstadt to find Su Hao and Jiuqi Ren, and then work together to solve the Mondstadt dragon scourge. She doesn't ask for much reward, just some dragon meat.
Upon hearing Xiangling's words, Su Hao paused in his work of rinsing the rice crackers, and his lips twitched slightly.
Fortunately, Xiangling received the news relatively late, otherwise she would definitely have been part of the party that went to Mondstadt.
Then Dvalin will have to face Xiangling, whose eyes are shining.
However, Xiangling's strength is not enough to harm Dvalin. Although she is indeed a disciple of the immortals, her strength is indeed somewhat weak.
She can fight, but not as well as Kuki Shinobu, because her main job is a chef, not a celestial disciple who specializes in combat like Shin-haku.
Hisaki Shinobu's expression was also a bit strange, because Karin wanted the flesh of the Wind God's familiar, which was really going too far.
Although Dvalin was misled by the Abyss Cult and did some wrong things, he also dragged Su Hao into the Abyss.
But he is also a legitimate member of the Wind God's family, second only to the Wind God. If the Mondstadt people knew that Xiangling wanted to eat the flesh of the Wind Dragon, they would probably be furious.
“Um…” Hisagi Shinobu looked at the very excited Xiangling and slowly began, “We came back from Mondstadt because we resolved the dragon scourge, and…”
Before Jiuqi Ren could finish speaking, Xiangling looked at Su Hao with shining eyes.
"..."X2
Seeing Xiangling's expression, Su Hao and Jiuqi Ren knew that she was wondering if they had brought any dragon meat with them.
"You can't take that dragon meat."
Su Hao looked at Xiang Ling helplessly and said, "That dragon has a special identity. If I take it, it will trigger a series of events."
“In a more serious case, it could trigger a breakdown in relations between the three kingdoms,” Hisaki Shinobu said with a somewhat subtle expression.
Dvalin is the Dragon of the East Wind, a servant of the Aeolus. To eat his flesh is like slapping the people of Mondstadt in the face.
Xiangling is a disciple of the Celestials, and no matter what, the Celestials will definitely protect her. In Liyue, the Celestials have a status equivalent to the divine beings' relatives.
Su Hao is a follower of the Thunder God, and he represents the will of the Thunder General.
Therefore, once the news spreads, it will mean that Mondstadt, Liyue, and Inazuma are at odds.
Of course, this is the worst-case scenario, and it's unlikely to escalate to this point in most cases.
"That serious?!" Upon hearing this, Xiangling's eyes widened slightly, and the excited light in them disappeared.
The logic is simple: if preparing food could cause hostility between three countries, then it's better to forget about it. After all, food is meant to bring joy, not war.
