The buffet restaurant was popular. How popular was it? There wasn't an empty table in the entire buffet restaurant from morning to night, especially on the third floor. The tables on the third floor had been booked for ten days. It wasn't just one table, but all the tables. All the tables on the third floor had been booked for ten days.
Now, it wasn't just the eighth alley. There was no one in the entire Full Moon City who didn't know about the buffet restaurant. Many people who weren't from the eighth alley would go to the buffet restaurant to try the dishes.
Seeing that the buffet restaurant was so popular, some forces couldn't sit still. They began to investigate the details of the buffet restaurant. However, they could only find out about Li Cheng and the others' situation in Full Moon City. They didn't find out about Li Cheng joining the Four Righteous Gang.
Firstly, the Four Righteous Gang wasn't a big gang and wasn't that famous. In addition, the Four Righteous Gang had been established for a short period of time and the people in the gang weren't famous. Therefore, it was impossible for others to find out the origin of Li Cheng and the others.
However, there were many rumors about Li Cheng coming from the Stone Drum Alley. After all, all the houses Li Cheng owned now were given to him by the old bandit. This wasn't a big deal. Other forces could also find out if they wanted to. This way, it confirmed the rumor that Li Cheng was related to the old bandit.
This rumor wasn't bad for Li Cheng. The reason why the Stone Drum Alley could become a forbidden place in Full Moon City wasn't just because it was a retirement place for those bandits who had washed their hands of gold. In fact, the main reason was that Full Moon City needed a quiet place.
There was no place that was absolutely safe in Full Moon City. Even the eighth alley wasn't absolutely safe. However, because the Eight Fantasy City's urban management was relatively strict, this place was relatively safe.
It was precisely because other places weren't safe that the Stone Drum Alley was safe. The Stone Drum Alley was safe because those old bandits were all very strong. In addition, they were ruthless, so most people wouldn't provoke them. In addition, Full Moon City needed such a place, so the Stone Drum Alley was so safe.
Li Cheng's relationship with the old bandit in the Stone Drum Alley was very good. This made those who wanted to make a move on Li Cheng think twice. Li Cheng was now in Eight Fantasy City's territory, and Eight Fantasy City was very considerate towards those who did business in their territory. If they wanted to make a move on Li Cheng's group, then it was very likely that Eight Fantasy City would retaliate.
Dealing with Li Cheng would mean facing the revenge of Eight Fantasy City and the old bandit, so those who wanted to deal with Li Cheng had to be careful.
Additionally, Li Cheng's strength wasn't weak. He had ten Teleportation Realm Cultivators by his side. Eleven Teleportation Realm Cultivators were a force to be reckoned with. Therefore, after investigating Li Cheng, many people gave up on the idea of dealing with him.
They weren't afraid of being investigated. Outsiders were only attracted by the buffet restaurant, so they didn't notice the changes in the courtyard behind them. In the courtyard behind them, Li Cheng had already laid down a formation. Although this formation wasn't as big as an ordinary defensive formation, it was still a good defensive formation. Ordinary people wouldn't be able to break into the courtyard behind them.
In addition to the formation, Li Cheng also arranged a transmission formation in one of the rooms. This transmission formation was an interstellar transmission formation that was directly connected to the Four Righteous Gang. If something happened to them here, the Four Righteous Gang wouldn't immediately come to support them. Therefore, Li Cheng wasn't worried about their safety at all.
In fact, it wasn't just the diners who didn't expect the buffet restaurant to be so popular, even Li Cheng didn't expect it. Li Cheng thought that since the price on the third floor was so expensive, there wouldn't be a lot of business. But when the business really started, Li Cheng knew that he shouldn't look at those Cultivators. Compared to the first and second floors, the business on the third floor was much better. Most importantly, the profits on the third floor were much higher.
The popularity of the buffet restaurant made Li Cheng a little uneasy. Although he wasn't afraid of other people looking for trouble, he was afraid of the people from Eight Illusion City. After all, he was now in Eight Illusion City's territory, and he didn't want to start a war with them. In this case, if the people from Eight Illusion City were to look for trouble, then they wouldn't be able to do business anymore.
Li Cheng was just a Rogue Cultivator in the past, so he didn't have much experience in this area. However, he knew that Eight Illusion City wouldn't pay attention to his small restaurant in the past. At that time, the business on the third floor wasn't doing well. Even if the business on the first and second floors was doing well, Eight Illusion City wouldn't pay attention to it. This was because the income from the first and second floors wasn't high. This would give people the illusion that the business on the first and second floors wasn't much. Naturally, Eight Illusion City wouldn't pay attention to it.
But now, the business on the third floor was very good. Everyone was charging 100 Jade Essences. And with the restaurant being full every day, it was impossible for it to not attract attention. Because of this, Li Cheng was worried that Eight Illusion City would pay attention to them. If Eight Illusion City really did pay attention to them, then it would be troublesome.
In Li Cheng's opinion, it wasn't a big deal if the restaurant couldn't continue to operate here. At worst, they could just find another place to open it. He was afraid that they wouldn't be able to establish a branch.
However, he really couldn't think of a good way. In the end, Li Cheng had no choice but to return to the Four Righteous Gang. He directly looked for Zhao Hai and told him about his worries.
Zhao Hai had been very relaxed recently. Besides dealing with some matters of the Four Righteous Gang, he didn't have anything else to do. The Four Righteous Gang's situation was very good, they were already on the right track. There weren't a lot of things that he needed to deal with.
After listening to Li Cheng's words, Zhao Hai didn't immediately reply. Instead, he nodded and then fell into contemplation. After some time, Zhao Hai opened his mouth and said, "Alright, after you go back, make some Jade Tokens. These Jade Tokens must have their own characteristics so that others can't imitate them. Then send some of these Jade Tokens to Eight Illusion City. Tell them that as long as they are residents of Eight Illusion City, they can enjoy a discount of 8 jin of Jade Tokens. As for the extra Jade Tokens, you need to find some people with status to send them out or give them to people who often come to the restaurant to eat. As long as they have a Jade Token, they can enjoy a 20% discount. Although this is only giving away a part of the benefits, it will still make those people feel very proud. This is equivalent to establishing a friendship with those people."
When Li Cheng heard Zhao Hai, he stared for a moment before his eyes lit up. He immediately understood why Zhao Hai did this. Just like Zhao Hai said, although these Jade Tokens would reduce their income, they could establish a friendship with those people. For them, this was definitely a good thing.
Zhao Hai looked at Li Cheng and then said, "In addition to these, you also need to find a way to make friends with some Cultivators in Eight Illusion City. Don't think about making friends with all the Cultivators in Eight Illusion City. This is unrealistic. You need to find one or two Cultivators and make friends with them. This way, if Eight Illusion City wants to deal with you in the future, they might notify you in advance. As long as they notify you, you can minimize your losses. Do you understand?"
Li Cheng nodded and said, "Yes, Sect Master. I understand."
Zhao Hai nodded and said, "It's not easy for people like you to stay in Full Moon City. At this time, there are a lot of people watching you. This isn't the time for you to recruit people. Don't make any moves, wait for some time. The buffet restaurant has just opened, so the business is very good. After some time, the business shouldn't be as good as before. When the time comes, you can still recruit people, don't worry."
Don't rush. "Li Cheng nodded. Zhao Hai then said," Go back. If there's anything, send us a letter. The sect will definitely support you. "Li Cheng nodded, then he turned around and left.
As soon as he returned to Full Moon City, Li Cheng immediately followed Zhao Hai's instructions and began to make jade tokens. For a Cultivator like Li Cheng, making jade tokens wasn't difficult. As for making jade tokens that others couldn't imitate, it was very simple. He just needed to add some symbols that he knew or put a trace of his spiritual force on the token.
It didn't take long for Li Cheng to make a large number of jade tokens. After the jade tokens were made, Li Cheng called the people who came with him to his room and had a meeting with them. He told them about Zhao Hai's intentions and told them to be honest for a while. Then he took the jade tokens and went to Eight Fantasy City.
This time, Li Cheng went to the row of houses outside Eight Illusion City. This was the place where Eight Illusion City dealt with external affairs. If Li Cheng wanted to do something, he would have to report here first.
Li Cheng entered the house he came to the first time. As soon as he entered, the Cultivators in the room stared at him. This made Li Cheng stare. Just as he was at a loss, the Cultivators in the room laughed. The Cultivator who talked to Li Cheng last time looked at him and said, "Boss Li, how come you have time to visit us today? Is there something wrong? "
Li Cheng quickly replied, "How can I be called a boss? It's just a small business. Don't make fun of me."
The Cultivator laughed and said, "We wouldn't dare. Boss Li's business isn't small. We also went to eat there last time. Unfortunately, we didn't have much money, so we could only go to the second floor. I heard that the third floor is full of good things. If we have time, we must go there and try it."
Li Cheng quickly smiled and said, "If you have time, then you can come tonight. I'll treat you to a good drink when the time comes."
When the Cultivators heard Li Cheng, they smiled faintly and said, "That's good. We'll go there tonight and have a good drink."
Li Cheng smiled and said, "Welcome, I'll be waiting for you. Everyone, these are some jade tokens that I made. You can keep one for yourselves. As for the others, I'll give them to the people in Eight Illusion City. These jade tokens are specially made. As long as you bring them to the buffet restaurant, you can get a 20% discount on the second and third floors."
