Chapter 23: Liyue's Magnificent Scenery
"Both? Are you missing friends again?"
Hu Tao looked surprised, and his eyes moved around Chen Tianfeng, stroking his chin: "I didn't expect that you have such talent and luck. Do you want to cooperate with Wangsheng Hall? This hall master will give you VIP treatment as a guest of Wangsheng Hall!"
"... The Hall Master misunderstood. It's not that another friend of mine died."
Chen Tianfeng twitched the corners of his mouth, feeling that the word "again" really made him feel complicated.
Remember in the game, there is a hidden setting speculated by players: most owners of the Wind God's Eye have a deceased friend.
Just horrible.
"Who is missing then?"
"No one else has it, I just want to order one for myself."
"Oh?" Hu Tao was even more surprised. "My dear guest, I see that you have a rosy complexion and a healthy body. You don't look like you will die young. Could it be that something happened to you?"
Zhongli also looked up at Chen Tianfeng, as if thinking about something, but he didn't say anything. He took the tea brought by the funeral girl, thanked her warmly, and poured tea for the people present.
Chen Tianfeng looked at the teacup that Zhongli pushed over, and his eye twitched subconsciously. Then he remembered that it was sent by the funeral lady, so he breathed a sigh of relief, took the teacup, and said thank you.
Hu Tao gave Zhongli an approving look, took a sip of tea, and said without waiting for Chen Tianfeng to answer: "However, I agree with your idea. As the saying goes, it is better to be prepared. Placing an order with Wangsheng Hall early can save you trouble in the future, right?"
"Hehe, this hall master has always wanted to promote this business, but the old people in the hall always say it's unreliable and they really don't know how to adapt! Now there is a precedent of this guest taking the initiative to come to the door, which proves how far-sighted this hall master is!"
Hu Tao's eyes sparkled, and he patted his chest with a heroic and calm gesture: "I'll make the decision! I'll give you a discount of half the price for the second portion!"
"The master is generous!"
Chen Tianfeng praised earnestly, without any perfunctory attitude, and immediately took out a banknote from his pocket and handed it to Zhongli: "This is a banknote from the Northland Bank, which can be exchanged for 300,000 Mora."
Zhongli took the money, looked at it carefully, and nodded to Hu Tao.
"You are amazing, sir. You have earned so much Mora in just two days." Walnut blinked and asked curiously, "How did you do it?"
Were they robbing the Fatui or the Solstice Merchants? Walnut thought about it but didn't ask the question directly.
Chen Tianfeng's face was calm and his tone was sincere: "It is a commercial secret and cannot be disclosed. Please forgive me, Master."
Hu Tao stared at him for a few seconds without saying whether she believed it or not. She waved her hand and asked the funeral girl to bring the standard contract and Mora: "The price of the funeral you ordered is 140,000 Mora. You have ordered two copies, and the second copy is half price, totaling 210,000 Mora. Here is the change of 90,000 Mora for you. If there is no problem, please sign the contract."
Chen Tianfeng glanced at the heavy purse and smiled embarrassedly: "I have another request, I hope the hall master will agree to it."
"Tell me about it. If it's not too much, Wangsheng Hall will definitely meet the needs of big customers like you."
"If I meet with misfortune in Teyvat one day, please bring my body back to you, Master Hu, and Mr. Zhongli, and bury it in a beautiful place in Liyue."
"Yes, I agree." Hu Tao's expression became serious for the first time, and she nodded and promised: "When the time comes, no matter where you are, I will take you back to Liyue."
"Me too." Zhongli's eyes were gentle: "Don't worry, little friend."
"Sorry to bother you two."
Chen Tianfeng bowed his hands, without adding anything like "If I were in danger, and Mr. Zhongli happened to meet me and was able to rescue me, please help me."
One should not be too greedy. Moreover, the promise was too valuable and he might not be able to pay equivalent compensation.
"What's the trouble? This is the job of the Wangsheng Hall." Hu Tao put away his serious expression and pushed the standard contract to Chen Tianfeng, smiling as if coaxing someone to sign a contract to sell their body: "Come on, come on, sign it quickly. This hall master guarantees that you will not suffer any loss."
Chen Tianfeng picked up the pen and happily signed his name. Under the witness of the God of Rock, he completed his first contract.
After the contract was signed, Hu Tao excitedly took the achievement and ran to the depths of the Hall of the Reborn, muttering that he wanted to let those elderly people take a good look at it and strive to open up new business of funeral reservations in the Hall of the Reborn.
Zhongli said that he had completed his work for the day and it was time for some free time. So he politely said goodbye to the undertaker and left the Hall of the Rebirth to go shopping at the port market.
Chen Tianfeng naturally followed closely behind, weighing the bag of money that was several times heavier, and felt confident.
Time passed and it was already afternoon.
Zhongli led Chen Tianfeng to Heyu Teahouse, sat down in the best and most suitable seat for listening to opera, and ordered a pot of good tea and some snacks.
"Have you ever heard of the spectacular sights in Liyue Harbor?"
While the stage was not yet decorated and Mr. Yun had not yet gone on stage, Zhongli took a sip of tea and looked at Chen Tianfeng.
"Appreciate further details."
Although Chen Tianfeng didn't show it on the surface, he felt extremely heavy in his heart, and the degree of heaviness was inversely proportional to the heaviness of his purse.
“The so-called superb view does not simply refer to the scenery.”
Zhongli spoke in a gentle tone, "Liyue cuisine has two major schools, Licai and Yuecai. Liuli Pavilion and Xinyuexuan are the best Licai and Yuecai restaurants in Liyue. If you have a chance, you may want to try the food at these two restaurants. I guarantee you won't be disappointed."
"The porcelain produced by Chunxiang Kiln is unique. There are cups, bowls, bottles and pots. The blue and white porcelain is exquisite and extremely beautiful. However, Miss Ying'er of Chunxiang Kiln speaks in a rather strange way. You need to distinguish carefully and don't misunderstand."
"Hanfeng Ironware has been passed down for a long time. The swords, spears, sticks and swords sold there are all top-grade, and all kinds of tools are complete. If you want to travel far, you might as well buy some tools for the wild there."
"The solemn and majestic ceremony of inviting immortals at Yujing Terrace is a unique sight, as is the housing price around Yujing Terrace. The port bazaar with thousands of ships and merchants is a unique sight, the bustling and bustling Feiyun Slope during the day and the bright lights at night is a unique sight, and the scenery on the Qunyu Pavilion is also a unique sight, but few people can get Ningguang's invitation."
Zhongli took a sip of tea to moisten his throat and said with a smile, "Finally, it's the opera by Yun Han Society's head, Mr. Yun Jinyun. It's a magnificent view of Liyue that should not be missed."
"Mr. Zhongli is indeed knowledgeable and well-informed. I am glad to learn from you."
Chen Tianfeng was deeply impressed and decided that when he had money and ability in the future, he would experience all these [Liyue Harbor's stunning views] whether he had heard of them or not.
"Besides these, Liyue also has many other sights worth seeing, many interesting things worth experiencing, and many delicious foods worth tasting. If there is a chance, I can take you to experience them all."
"When I become rich, I will definitely ask Mr. Zhongli to take me on a tour of Liyue."
"Haha, then I will look forward to it from now on."
The stage was soon completed and the two stopped chatting.
Mr. Yun, wearing a costume and makeup, holding a flower spear, came on stage, and the accompaniment sounded with beautiful melody. His graceful and moving singing voice made people obsessed, and his every move was full of beauty. From the visual experience to the auditory impact, it gave people endless lingering artistic conception.
Apart from the different stories, the tone of the opera is very similar to the opera Chen Tianfeng had heard in his childhood.
Chen Tianfeng stared at Yun Jin on the stage, his heart beating fast, and he thought for a moment that he had returned to his hometown.
