Cheng Mengying had already given up hope on Xishan Giant Bull, who didn't know anything at all. She didn't know if it was true or not when it said that it had been to the Cultivation World before. It seemed that it didn't know anything about what the waiter had said. Maybe it had made up the story about coming to the Cultivation World!
"Alright then …" Xishan Giant Ox thought for a long time but could not find a clue, so it could only agree. Looking at the table full of fragrant dishes, it temporarily threw the matter of finding Xiao Chen to the back of its mind.
"By the way, don't ever say that we are father and daughter!" Cheng Mengying didn't forget to complain to the giant bull while eating. "I don't want to be your daughter! Besides, we look completely different. Who would believe that? Besides, you are old enough to be my grandfather! "
The giant bull remembered the nonsense it had said in a moment of desperation. It couldn't help but smile awkwardly. It didn't dare to refute. It picked up the chopsticks and gobbled up the food.
After eating and drinking to its heart's content, the giant bull burped with satisfaction. It took out the bag containing the spiritual crystals and waved at the waiter, asking him to pay the bill.
"Are you two done eating? Are you satisfied with the food? "The waiter immediately walked over and put two cups of tea on the table. He asked with a smile.
"Well, it's okay! Here is the bill. How much is the total … spiritual crystals? "The giant bull waved its hand lazily. It almost made a mistake.
"Okay, you have spent a total of five spiritual crystals. This is the bill. Please have a look!" The waiter took out a receipt from his back, bowed and handed it to Xishan Giant Bull, and reported with a smile.
"What did you say?! Five spiritual crystals? " The Xishan Giant Bull, who was originally reclining, immediately sat up straight and asked with a surprised expression, "It's just some ordinary food? Why does it cost five Spirit Crystals? "
The giant bull didn't have time to listen to the waiter's explanation. It immediately snatched the bill and looked down. It pointed at the item on the bill and scolded, "What's wrong with you? We asked for two pots of hot water, and you charge one spiritual crystal for each pot? Is your restaurant a scam? "
"Hehe, please calm down and listen to my explanation." The waiter wasn't angry. He still said with a smile, "Both of you are from another place, so you might not know much about the situation here. Our Moyao Town is just at the edge of the desert, so water is the most scarce!"
"But isn't this a little too expensive? One pot of water costs one spirit crystal. I don't even have to spend so much to buy a pot! "West Mountain Giant Cow grabbed the bill with one hand and pointed at the teapot on the table with the other. It shouted angrily.
"That can't be helped. You can go and ask around. In this town, no matter where you go, the price of water is the same. We definitely don't mean to cheat you!" The waiter spread his hands helplessly. "After all, there isn't enough water in our town. Most of it is transported from other places. The cost is already very high, which is why we are selling it at such a high price. Please understand!"
"Then … Then can't you give us a discount, a little better? We just came from another place, so we don't know the situation here. Five spirit crystals is indeed a little too much! "Cheng Mengying was speechless after listening to the waiter. She begged pitifully.
That being said, Cheng Mengying could still understand the difficulties of this restaurant. Water was originally more precious than gold in the desert. If the waiter really said that the water had to be transported from other places, then the transportation alone would cost a lot. After deducting the cost, there wouldn't be much profit.
"This … I can't make the decision for this!" The waiter looked embarrassed. He couldn't bear to refuse Cheng Mengying's plea, but he couldn't help her to give a discount. After thinking for a long time, he gritted his teeth and said, "How about this? I will help you ask our shopkeeper first. If he agrees, then we can give you a discount!"
"That's great. Then I thank you in advance! You are so nice! " Cheng Mengying immediately nodded with a smile. Her flower-like smile dazzled the waiter. He immediately patted his chest and guaranteed. Then, he quickly ran away with the bill.
Xishan Giant Bull and Cheng Mengying looked at the back of the waiter. They saw him run to the counter and find a middle-aged fat man. The two of them whispered to each other.
The fat man seemed to be a little unwilling at first, and scolded the waiter with a displeased expression. However, the waiter didn't seem to give up, and still persistently tried to persuade him. He even pointed at Cheng Mengying's table, and let the shopkeeper take a look.
The shopkeeper glared at the waiter impatiently. Then, he glanced at Cheng Mengying's table. However, when he saw Cheng Mengying's lovely appearance, his eyes suddenly flashed with a stunned light. He was stunned.
Cheng Mengying immediately put on a pitiful expression. She cupped her hands at the shopkeeper. Then, she quietly pointed to her own table, asking the shopkeeper to give her some face and give her some discount.
The shopkeeper was stunned for a long time. The waiter kept nagging at the side. Finally, he gritted his teeth and nodded. He said a few words to the waiter and then waved his hand to signal for him to settle it.
However, the shopkeeper's own eyes didn't move away from Cheng Mengying's face. He kept admiring the beautiful and charming young miss. He looked for a long time until the back of the waiter blocked his view. Then, the shopkeeper reluctantly looked away and went to greet other customers.
The waiter didn't notice the gaze of the shopkeeper behind him. Instead, he happily walked to Cheng Mengying's table and said with a smile, "Thanks to this lady's beauty, our shopkeeper is also a man who has tender and protective feelings for the fairer sex. After my hard persuasion, he finally agreed to give you a discount of one spiritual crystal for the dishes! However … because the price of water is the same in the town, we can't give a discount. We will charge you four spiritual crystals! "
"Hehe, thank you for saving us money, little brother!" Cheng Mengying nodded happily. She was obviously very satisfied with the waiter's praise. She also complimented the waiter.
Xishan Giant Bull was still holding the small bag tightly with a painful expression. It was as if he didn't hear the conversation between the two.
"Why are you in a daze?" Cheng Mengying waited for a while and found that the Xishan Giant Bull didn't move at all. She couldn't help but urge, "Quickly pay the bill! We still have to go to the Dada Cultivation Chamber of Commerce and find a way to find someone! "
"O … okay …" The Xishan Giant Bull came back to its senses. It gritted its teeth and counted from the small bag for a long time. Then, it took out four spiritual crystals and handed them to the waiter with trembling hands. Its burning eyes were still fixed on the spiritual crystals.
