Chapter 15 What a wonderful cat!
"Honorable guest, this is crab meat lion's head meatball. It is made from fresh crab roe and is tender and juicy. It is the signature dish of our Black Cat Restaurant. Only we can make it here. If you don't know what to eat, you can't go wrong by ordering this."
Yu Qi glanced at it; a serving of crab meat lion's head meatballs cost fifty crystal coins.
[Crab Roe Lion's Head Meatballs: Consuming this meatball increases Strength by 3 points, stacking up to a maximum of 30 points.]
"Next to it is black truffle and abalone rice, luxurious and delicious, with an enticing aroma, loved by many diners..."
This one hundred crystal coins is even more expensive!
[Black Truffle Abalone Rice: Increases Constitution by 5 points upon consumption, up to a maximum of 50 points.]
Next, the uniformed black cat introduced many of the restaurant chefs' signature dishes, such as stir-fried beef with yellow peppers, baked pumpkin with salted egg yolk, truffle cream pasta, and seafood noodle soup...
These dishes can respectively increase strength, agility, constitution, and reduce fatigue...
In this light, her tomatoes are indeed worth the price; one tomato can reduce fatigue by ten to twenty points, which is more effective than some other dishes!
Moreover, these dishes are quite expensive. It doesn't seem worthwhile to use all the gold coins I earn today to buy these dishes.
She lowered her voice and asked, "Are these all internal prices?"
The black cat in uniform was very shrewd. He immediately shook his head, led his men to the kitchen, and whispered, "Honored guest, those are naturally not internal prices. Our employees can just buy them from the kitchen."
Immediately afterwards, the black cat in uniform took out a small notebook and quietly handed it over.
Upon seeing the prices recorded in the notebook, Yu Qi's eyes widened instantly.
Crab meat lion's head meatballs only cost five crystal coins? Although they're smaller than the lion's head meatballs on the customers' tables, the portion is very generous!
Black truffle and abalone rice only costs ten crystal coins, which is a rounded-down ten! I love it!
No wonder those people were so happy working in the kitchen; it turns out that internal employees get this kind of treatment!
Luckily, we became a supplier for this restaurant, otherwise we would have missed such a great opportunity!
The signature dishes are definitely a good choice, order one of each!
Yu Qi lowered her eyes, seemingly observing, but her eyes were actually shining!
Wait a minute, the mung bean and lily soup and pineapple sticky rice here can actually detoxify, and each serving only costs three crystal coins!
I bought it!
Soup noodles made with deep-sea seafood are said to have beauty and skin-nourishing effects, and also help with sleep.
Only two crystal coins, so cheap, what are you waiting for?
What?! One crystal coin equals ten bowls of rice? How can we go without a staple food? We need to include that too!
Unfortunately, all dishes can only be purchased once within seven days!
She had almost finished checking off the entire menu, but she still wasn't satisfied.
Perhaps sensing the longing in Yu Qi's eyes, the uniformed black cat next to him trembled and took out his work card.
"Honorable guest, if you would like to buy another serving, you can use my card. I bought too much before, and I still haven't finished eating it."
This is absolutely the best cat ever!
Yu Qi took the card and whispered back, "I'll bring you back any good stuff I come across in the future!"
She's really broke right now; she's even sold out of tomatoes and ketchup!
The smile on the black cat's face deepened: "Honored guest, how could I let you spend so much? If you need anything next time, just come to me."
Yu Qi nodded; she understood.
Subduing the black cat means that if there are similar transactions in the future, you can go to him again!
Yu Qi thought to herself once again, "What a wonderful cat!"
The black cat shopkeeper and this black cat guy are simply role models in the cat world!
While the black cat was packing the food, Yu Qi glanced at the kitchen again, lost in thought.
These dishes are similar to those on Earth. Do monsters eat human food just like humans?
What kind of world lies behind this road survival story, where monsters and humans live together?
Yu Qi turned her head to look over and saw that one of the chefs, wearing a chef's hat and flipping a wok, was human-looking and bald.
The chef seemed to be doing quite well. Sometimes, when he got really angry, he would curse at the monster next to him, but nothing ever happened to him.
"What are you looking at? Get out of here! Don't you have any sense of danger?" the human cook shouted at her as soon as he saw her.
Yu Qi silently took out her supplier card, and the chef opposite her immediately widened his eyes.
"Hmph, even if you have that status, you still need to be careful!" The chef buried his head in his wok and stopped talking.
Yu Qi nodded, agreeing that they did need to be more careful.
This chef seems to know a lot about survival games? However, when she asked again, he remained silent.
"Honorable guest, there are too many dishes. If we can't finish them in a short time, it may affect the taste. Would you like to buy a Black Cat Restaurant special space preservation box? It guarantees that no matter when you take it out, the food will be the freshest!"
As Yu Qi was leaving, countless plates of food were piled up around her. The black cat in uniform saw this and immediately went over to introduce the restaurant's food storage containers.
Yu Qi glanced at the price tag and almost turned to leave.
This tiny box costs a thousand crystal coins!
Even if we round down the internal price by one zero, it's still one hundred crystal coins!
I just bought all these groceries, and it only cost me 132 crystal coins in total!
Her storage compartments can also be kept fresh, there's no need to waste money on that!
However, the uniformed black cat opposite her immediately saw her concerns and then said, "Honorable guest, don't worry, I have one free meal box quota every month, I'll pack it for you right away!"
That's spot on! Absolutely spot on!
If Black Cat Restaurant could be rated, it would definitely get a perfect score!
Yu Qi left via the stairs outside the second floor, and the black cat in uniform waved in this direction.
The next second, the restaurant in front of them disappeared, leaving only a straight road and endless sandy land all around.
Just as she guessed, this restaurant wasn't a fixed location; it seemed that only those with special "invitation cards" could go there.
So, how was she able to see this restaurant before?
Thinking back to the first time she met that temporary supplier, Yu Qi felt a strange feeling. Could it be that she had used that guy's card to her advantage?
If she were to take back what she said earlier, that guy might not necessarily be a shrewd businessman. Wouldn't that be selfless?
