Next, neither of them touched the earthy pumpkin soup with the radiation unique to the Underdark, but they did not miss the other dishes. Even Xia Duo, who had a lack of avatar perception, tried his best to taste them one by one. .
Based on Niya's reaction, although Sha Duo was a little surprised by the quality of the meal, he still insisted on his opinion. What the so-called Easterners in the elves have is
The title "Oriental" was given to him. He could say with certainty that this was typical elf food! It might have incorporated the chef's superb cooking skills and rich life experience, but it was still very different from the food he expected from his hometown.
Maybe this is the so-called oriental food. After all, he is not a real oriental, but on earth!
Naturally, we cannot ask the Eastern countries in the magical world to have the same characteristics as our hometown.
"Taste". During dinner, a young wood elf waitress appeared out of nowhere and handed Xia Duo a bill. She also deliberately imitated the appearance of fellow golden elves in the upper city and looked at Xia Duo with a cold face. Duo said: "Guest, you spent a total of 520 Hillmel!" Only more than 500 gold coins?
Xia Duo was quite surprised. He originally thought that Shi Feng Restaurant would give him a lot of money, but he didn't expect that it only cost him so much. Although a meal of 500 gold coins is considered a luxury for most people, for Xia Duo, Say, that’s nothing.
If you come here once in a while, you can definitely afford it. Of course, Xia Duo doesn't believe that there is no premium at all for more than 500 gold coins, but it doesn't matter. This is not the first time he has encountered high-priced meals in tourist attractions. As long as Niya is happy , and he doesn’t care about this little money.
He took out the Cormanso gold coins that he had prepared for the trip in advance, filled a purse full of them, threw them to the wood elf waitress, and then asked to see the chef.
At this time, the wood elf could no longer pretend, showed a sly and wild smile, hid the money bag under his apron, and then jumped up and down towards the kitchen, replying to Xia Duo as he ran: "Guest, please wait a moment, I'll call Father Shi Feng to come out!" Xia Duo smiled immediately, and Niya also asked curiously: "Isn't this store opened by an Oriental?"
"I don't know either, but I have a guess. Maybe you will understand when the chef Shi Feng comes out!" There are not many customers in the store right now. Except for Shadonia's table, there is only one table of dwarves drinking. I was making gestures, but it was obvious that I was mainly drinking, and I couldn't even serve a single dish for a long time.
Maybe it's because of the high price, or maybe it's because the residents in the underground city are not used to being active at night. Although the underground is also a city that never sleeps, there is still a clear difference compared to the bustle above ground.
Not long after the wood elf waitress left, an Oriental man dressed as a chef walked out from the back kitchen, followed by a waitress with arrogant teeth, and did not stop until he reached Xia Duo's table.
"Guest, I heard from Mulian that you came to see me because you are not satisfied with the food?" Mulian must be the wood elf. Xia Duo glanced at Mulian who had calmed down, suppressed a smile and said to Shi Feng: " No, we are very satisfied with the dishes, we just want to meet the chef who made them and negotiate a deal."
"Deal? What deal?" Shi Feng suddenly became alert and stretched out his hand to push away Mulian who was listening with her ears pricked up. Mulian also ran towards the kitchen very obediently.
Seeing this, Xia Duo couldn't help but reveal the illusion and transform into his true form.
"Chef Shi Feng, don't be nervous, I am very serious about negotiating a deal."
"Are you from the East?" Shi Feng's eyes suddenly widened, he looked at Xia Duo up and down, and then looked at Niya with suspicion, and finally said: "Do you want to settle here? I can't help you.
! Seeing that you are an Oriental, this meal is my invitation. As for the others, the guests don’t need to mention it anymore!"
"No, Chef Shi Feng, you misunderstood. I came here to travel, not to settle down."
"Then what kind of deal do you want to discuss?" Although Shi Feng didn't quite believe that Xia Duo really had such a simple purpose, he still listened patiently when he thought of how generous the other party was when he ordered the food and paid the bill.
"I am now a lord in Netheril. I want to promote Eastern cuisine in my territory, so what I want is actually Chef Shifeng's recipe. Of course, if Chef Shifeng is willing to settle in my territory
Or short-term guidance, I am also very welcome." Xia Duo stated his request. Shi Feng's mouth was already growing louder after listening to it. After a long time, he said nervously: "You are Xia Duo who purified the land of the abyss some time ago.
Lord?!"
"It's me, but the purification of the abyss is not my fault, but the divine envoy from the Kingdom of Glory."
"Isn't that the same!" Perhaps seeing Xia Duo's oriental appearance similar to his own, Shi Feng became more and more fluent in speaking,
"I heard that Lord Xia Duo has a fortress that can fly in the sky. Is it true?"
"Have you heard about it here?" Xia Duo was a little surprised. It's not that there should be no news here in Cormansol, but ordinary Easterners in a underground city like Shifeng have heard about the Floating City, and other places
I'm afraid it will spread even more.
"As far as I know, many Easterners in the Andalit community are paying attention to your deeds!" Shi Feng's words surprised Xia Duo again.
"Why? Why should they pay attention to me?"
"Because there are few such outstanding spellcasters among us Easterners. Although we don't live in the same city or country, we Easterners have the same attributes."
"So that's it!" Xia Duo couldn't help but sigh. It turned out that the Easterners in the main plane still retained some of the local feelings he was familiar with, and had not been completely assimilated by the elves, but——
"Chef Shi Feng, do you, a half-elf like you, still consider yourself an Oriental?" The moment Shi Feng appeared, Xia Duo had already discovered that the other party was not purely human, but had some subtle elf characteristics.
, such as hair color, hair color, and even walking posture, which reflect certain structures of the body.
And that wood elf girl Mulian is a half-elf with more elf characteristics, and maybe she really is the daughter of Shi Feng.
...Seeing that Xia Duo discovered his identity, Shi Feng was not surprised at all. He knew that spell casters always have many ways to know everything that he didn't understand, but in his heart, he was still a little sad.
"Lord Chateau, of course I hope that I am a pure Oriental, rather than a mixed-race mongrel who is not even qualified to go to the upper city, but there are too few Orientals in this world, so few that we are looking for another Oriental partner.
The chances are extremely slim." At this point, Shi Feng suddenly asked Xia Duo a question: "I wonder if Lord Xia Duo has noticed the male-to-female ratio of Orientals in the Andalit community?"
