Chapter 100 Doomsday Manor 15
By this time, Wen Jiu had already absorbed all the crystal cores given to him by the mute woman.
Since Li Xianwen wasn't there, and the mother and son didn't come down to order food, there were fewer people eating in the afternoon, so Wenjiu didn't go to pick vegetables.
The silence on the first floor of the manor was broken by Li Xianwen's greeting.
"Hello, owner of the manor. These are my friends. They would like to stay here for one night, plus five hours."
When the group entered the manor, Wen Qi sensed energy fluctuations, and there were quite a few of them.
However, the person who came was not very capable, so she did not go out to greet him, but instead reminded Wenjiu to go to the kitchen to get a basket to pick vegetables.
"How many people are staying in single or double rooms? Would you like dinner?"
"I'm sure you've all seen the rules outside the manor, and you've implicitly accepted the fees," Wen Qi replied politely.
“We’re staying in two double rooms and we both need dinner. Can we order food here?” Liang Xia smiled slightly at Wen Qi, looked at the dining table, and then asked Wen Qi.
Just then, Wen Jiu came out of the kitchen with a vegetable basket. Hearing Liang Xia's question, Wen Jiu slowly spoke.
"I'm about to go pick some fruits and vegetables. Dinner can't be ordered yet, so please wait a little while. But you can tell me what you'd like to eat, and if the farm has any, I'll pick it for you."
"Payment requires Ghost Coins, but considering it's everyone's first time here and you're friends brought by Mr. Li, we can use Crystal Cores as a substitute for now, but Ghost Coins will be required next time."
The group nodded and took out the remaining ghost coins they had, using crystal cores as a substitute if they didn't have enough.
Four people stayed in two double rooms from 6 pm to 6 am, and each person had to pay 800 ghost coins.
From 6 a.m. to 11 a.m., each person pays 250 ghost coins.
"Hello guests, each person needs to pay 1050 Ghost Coins, and the total for four people is 4200 Ghost Coins."
The four of them pooled together 3200 Ghost Coins, and used a low-level crystal core to replace the remaining 1000 Ghost Coins.
After payment, Wen Qi issued check-in certificates to the group and led them to the second floor. The four of them stayed in rooms 202 and 203, which were next to room 201.
After leading the group to the entrance, Wen Qi reminded them to strictly abide by all the rules of the manor.
At this point, Liang Xia brought up the matter of Sun Qi.
"Hello, Manor Owner. I have a question. One of our companions has gone missing in the Rose Grove. Is there any chance he can be found?"
Wen Qi may choose not to answer questions she cannot answer, but she is required to answer questions she knows the answers to for the guests.
Wen Qi replied, "Your partner no longer exists in this world. In other words, he may have broken the rules and died."
After saying that, Wen Qi went downstairs, leaving the five people behind in a state of panic.
Under Li Xianwen's guidance, the four entered their respective rooms and received the room rules.
Immediately afterwards, the group went to Li Xianwen's room to discuss the matter.
...
“Since the vegetables in those orchards are so magical, can we order several portions at once, use up all the crystal cores we have, and then go out to kill zombies to get more crystal cores and collect ghost coins?” Miao Yan spoke first.
Xiao Da's eyes were unfathomable, but he quickly chimed in, "I think it's a good idea. The secret Brother Li wanted to mention earlier, it wasn't about collecting the strange coins, was it?"
Li Xianwen was extremely embarrassed when he saw that Xiao Da had easily guessed his thoughts.
He was also thinking of using this information to exchange for some crystal cores from the others.
“In that case, let’s decide it this way. We’ll depart tomorrow morning.” Liang Xia and Xiao Da exchanged a glance and then made the decision.
Xiao Da was puzzled by Liang Xia's gaze, but the latter just smiled and said nothing more.
Wenjiu, who has entered the fruit and vegetable garden, is selecting from a variety of fruits and vegetables.
This morning we picked tomatoes, carrots, eggplants, broccoli, baby bok choy, baby squash, peas, lettuce, strawberries, cherry tomatoes, and also dug up a few potatoes.
In the afternoon, we picked cabbage, cauliflower, two ears of corn, chives, lettuce, cucumber, green beans, okra, spinach, two sweet potatoes, asparagus, winter melon, scallions, and garlic shoots.
Sweet potatoes were the staple food that Wenjiu prepared for herself and her sister. As for the other dishes, they were either stir-fried or stewed.
When Wen Jiu finished picking the vegetables and left the orchard, the system notification sounded in his mind again.
[Ding! Congratulations, housekeeper, you have received a recipe for hand-torn cabbage.]
[Ding! Congratulations, housekeeper, you have received a recipe for stir-fried cauliflower.]
[Ding! Congratulations, housekeeper, you have received a recipe for stir-fried shredded potatoes with chives.]
[Ding! Congratulations, housekeeper, you have received a recipe for stir-fried lettuce with pork.]
[Ding! Congratulations, housekeeper, you have received a recipe for green beans and eggplant.]
[Ding! Congratulations, housekeeper, you have received a recipe for asparagus salad.]
[Ding! Congratulations, housekeeper, you have received a serving of winter melon and corn soup.]
[Ding! Congratulations, housekeeper, you have received a garlic spinach recipe.]
[Ding! Congratulations, housekeeper, you have received a recipe for stir-fried pork with garlic sprouts.]
Wen Jiu kept receiving recipes, while Wen Qi was at the front desk, seeing one recipe after another, and suddenly appeared at the ordering counter.
Wen Qi walked over and picked it up. It was full of cooking recipes. She guessed that her younger brother might also have a system, but not a talent system.
Otherwise, none of this makes sense.
The thought that Wenjiu might also have a system made her extremely happy.
Regardless of whether the system's functions are amazing or not, she is satisfied as long as it can help Wenjiu.
...
A short while later, Wenjiu returned carrying a basket of vegetables.
Although he was carrying a shopping basket, his tuxedo made him look like he was walking the runway at Fashion Week.
Once the vegetables were harvested, Wenjiu changed the dishes and prices according to the recipes awarded by the system.
Hand-torn cabbage, 2000 Ghost Coins per serving.
Stir-fried cauliflower, 2500 Ghost Coins per serving.
Cold asparagus salad, 2500 Ghost Coins per serving.
Garlic spinach, 2500 Ghost Coins per serving.
Stir-fried shredded potatoes with chives, 3000 Ghost Coins per serving.
Green beans and eggplant, 3500 Ghost Coins per serving.
Stir-fried lettuce with pork, 4000 Ghost Coins per serving.
Winter melon and corn soup, 4000 ghost coins per serving.
Stir-fried garlic shoots with pork, 4000 Ghost Coins per serving.
One low-level crystal core can be exchanged for 500 Ghost Coins, one mid-level crystal core for 1500 Ghost Coins, and one high-level crystal core for 3000 Ghost Coins.
This is for one day only. From now on, we will no longer accept crystal cores, only ghost coins.
Please be patient and wait when ordering; do not rush the process.
The plank had barely been erected when Wen Qi had already notified Li Xianwen and his group, and the five of them came downstairs.
Seeing the food display board that had been warmed up, Hong Zihan was about to get angry when Xiao Da stopped her.
Xiao Da shook his head slightly, signaling him not to say anything more.
Although they sensed that Wen Jiu was an F-level ability user, Wen Qi and the others knew they couldn't defeat her and absolutely couldn't provoke her.
Even if a low-level crystal core can only be exchanged for 500 Ghost Coins, four low-level crystal cores are not as good as one high-level crystal core. Moreover, the strength improvement that a dish worth 2,000 Ghost Coins can provide is far greater than that of a high-level crystal core.
Moreover, eating vegetables has no side effects.
Based on the points mentioned above, several people believe it's still a worthwhile deal.
However, they must speed up the process of collecting the ghost coins.
Who knows, this manor might become known to more people in a few days, and then they'll have even more competitors.
