Chenyu Valley, ten miles outside Qiaoying Manor, Yingchun Inn...

"Shopkeeper!" Tartaglia walked excitedly into what looked to be the largest inn and sat down without hesitation.

The waiter came up to him immediately and said, "Hello, sir! Are you here for a meal or to stay overnight?"

Tartaglia replied, "I heard from others that the snacks at our Chenyu Valley are particularly good. Let me have a taste first."

"Oh, then you have come to the right place. If you want to know where the best tea is in the world, Chenyu Valley is the best. If you want to know where the best tea is in Chenyu Valley, it must be our Yingchun Inn!"

Tartaglia smiled without any defense: "That's really cool, buddy. If that's the case, I don't need to think too hard. Just help me with our restaurant's signature dishes."

The waiter responded excitedly: "Okay, please come in!"

The work was done efficiently and effectively. Before Dadalia even opened the menu, the waiter had already notified the kitchen to prepare the dishes.

When passing by the table next to him, he winked at those ruffian young men. Those young men snorted coldly and glanced at Tartaglia with disdain.

As soon as I walked to the back kitchen, the waiter coughed lightly and lowered his voice: "I want the signature dish! Remember, it must be the most signature dish."

"Humph!" Several chefs smiled greedily.

The chef knocked the kitchen knife against the chopping board and said, "Oh, this is a big fish. Let me show you my skills."

The waiter came out not long after and said to Dardalia politely: "Please don't be anxious, sir. The dishes you ordered will be ready in no time."

Tartaglia took the opportunity to start a small talk: "This is my first time in your place, so I don't know much about your living habits. There's only one thing I don't understand, why are there so few customers in the store? Normally, a store as big as ours shouldn't have only two tables of customers."

Tartaglia's clear eyes seemed to tell the shop owner that this was indeed his first time in this place.

The waiter smiled and said, "I know this is your first time here, so you don't know the rules here."

"What rules?"

The waiter realized that he had almost let the cat out of the bag, and quickly said, "You don't know this. At this time, everyone has finished their morning tea and it's time to go to work. The people who are eating in the store now are guests like you who have come from far away."

Tartaglia had no doubt: "So that's how it is, it makes sense."

The waiter asked tentatively: "The customer doesn't look like a Liyue person. Where is he from?"

Tartaglia smiled and replied, "My hometown is "Solid Winter", and I just came back from "Fontaine" a few days ago. However, I have lived in "Liyue Port" the longest, and I have many acquaintances there."

The waiter secretly mocked in his heart: "You still want to pretend to be an acquaintance, thinking that I don't know that you are a foolish boy who is easy to deceive. It has been a long time since I opened the shop. Today I am deceiving you!"

But on the surface, he still acted politely: "Please wait a moment, I will serve you the food."

Tartaglia was very happy: "It's so fast, I've been looking forward to it for a long time, I have to see it carefully."

The waiter turned around and smiled sinisterly: "Yes, I'll let you see it clearly later."

Soon, the waiter brought plate after plate of colorful, fresh, and delicately crafted dishes, which soon filled the entire table.

But this is a small matter for Tartaglia. He is not short of money. No matter how expensive a table of food is, how much will it cost? How can it be more than the money Zhongli borrowed from him?

However, the waste of food made Tartaglia somewhat concerned.

"You have a lot of signature dishes. I'm afraid I can't finish them all by myself."

The waiter smiled and said, "Every dish in our restaurant is a signature dish. This is according to your wishes. I don't think you don't have enough money."

Tartaglia didn't hear the waiter's sarcastic sarcasm at all. He just scratched his head and smiled: "That's not the case. I can afford this little money. I'm just afraid that we won't be able to finish the food and it will be wasted. After all, wasting food is not a good habit."

When the waiter and the young men at the table next to him heard what Tartaglia said, they all cursed in their hearts, "Still pretending to be stupid here, I'll make you cry later."

After all, Dadalia had been hungry for a few days. After drifting all the way from Fontaine, he finally got ashore. This was his first proper meal.

While eating without caring about his image, Tartaglia still thought: "The signature dish is indeed delicious. Let's ask Zhongli to come to this restaurant and try it in a few days."

The waiter stood by and refilled his tea cup after cup, just to see when he would finish and how much he could eat.

However, everyone present was a little surprised by Tartaglia's appetite. In order to avoid wasting any food, he actually ate up everything on the table.

"A little full..." Tartaglia burped. "But it's really delicious. I think we've come to the right place today. Let's pay the bill."

The waiter was still in a daze when the young man at the next table kicked him from below, signaling him to get back to work.

The waiter then reacted, took out a notebook, and calculated the cost of each dish one by one, and finally calculated an accurate number for Dadalia's table.

"Sir, your table of food costs a total of 1.5 million Mora!"

"Master Duo!" Tartaglia's eyes suddenly widened.

"One million and a half million!" the waiter deliberately raised his voice.

"One million and a half for eight dishes, which is equivalent to more than 180,000 per dish? I am indeed a rough person, but it doesn't mean that I don't understand math at all."

The waiter continued in a sarcastic tone, "Hey, look at what you said. I didn't mean to make fun of your math skills. I was speaking the truth. Didn't you look at the menu?"

The waiter handed over the menu, and Tartaglia said, "I really didn't look at the menu. I just followed what you said and served the signature dishes."

After taking the menu and taking a look at it, Tadalia's eyes suddenly went dark. It was clearly written on it that the cheapest dish started at 100,000. The tea he just drank cost 50,000 per cup. It was simply unbelievable.

"I see that you are of a high status, so you are not short of money. Besides, you said it yourself, this is just a small amount of money for you."

Looking at the waiter's face, Tartaglia realized that he had entered a shady shop. Although he could indeed come up with the 1.5 million, it did not mean that he could be cheated without resistance.

No matter where the inn is, it would not dare to charge such a high price, not to mention that "Chenyu Valley" belongs to Liyue, a country of "contract".
