Chapter 358: Daily Life at the Restaurant

Ling Wanqing knew that the small city would soon welcome quite a few Loose Cultivators in the Qi Refinement Stage.

There would also be some Disciples from small Sects and Families coming to explore the Secret Realm.

But none of this mattered to them. If they came, they would host them, but if anyone dared to cause trouble, Ling Wanqing wouldn't mind making them pay a price.

Tian Tian looked at Ling Wanqing and said, "Then, Boss Lady, I'll go get back to work."

Ling Wanqing looked at Tian Tian and said, "Wait a moment. By the way, how is your mother doing?"

"It's all thanks to you, Boss Lady, for letting me take my wages in advance. I was able to buy medicine for my mother in time, and she is much better now."

"I think she will recover before long. I really have to thank you, Boss Lady, and the Shopkeeper."

Ling Wanqing smiled. "Go on then, get back to work. If you need anything, you can always tell us."

Ling Wanqing knew about the Family situation of the Little Girl before her.

Tian Tian had told her about it when she came to ask for an advance on her wages.

Ling Wanqing certainly wouldn't be stingy about such a thing.

Just then, someone asked, "Boss Lady, where is your Shopkeeper?"

Ling Wanqing replied, "Our Shopkeeper just went to attend to some guests."

"I see. Well, Boss Lady, the usual, in the usual spot. I just love that wine of yours."

"Alright, I've already reserved it for you. You can just head over there."

"Then many thanks, Boss Lady."

Ling Wanqing called out, "Tian Tian, go and attend to these guests."

"Alright, Boss Lady."

Ling Wanqing looked at these people; many of them were regular customers of their Restaurant who often brought others along, so they granted these people some special privileges.

They reserved special seats for them.

Business at the Restaurant had actually been quite good lately, with many people coming here to drink every day.

The wine was all brewed by Su Yu himself.

In the Mortal world, this wine could already be considered High Grade. The most critical point for a Restaurant is that the wine must taste good.

Su Yu understood this, which is why he personally brewed this particular wine.

It was well-loved by many, who came here often to drink it.

It had become quite famous in the surrounding area.

At night, Su Yu and Ling Wanqing had returned home.

Ling Wanqing looked at Su Yu and said, "The Secret Realm will open in a few days. We'll probably be getting busy."

Su Yu replied, "Indeed, the small city will become lively then. Quite a few Mortals will also come here to watch."

"We'll just carry on as usual. A Secret Realm for the Qi Refinement Stage won't attract much attention; it's just small fry."

Su Yu laughed, "What, are you, a Golden Core Stage Boss Lady, afraid of this?"

Ling Wanqing glanced at Su Yu, "Look at you talking, aren't you a Golden Core Stage Shopkeeper yourself?"

As time passed, the day for the Secret Realm to open drew closer and closer.

The small city became increasingly lively, with many people arriving in it.

The small city was decorated with lanterns and streamers everywhere, and all sorts of activities were emerging one after another.

This was a great opportunity to make money, and many people began setting up stalls and the like.

Sitting at the counter, Su Yu looked at the scene outside; it was just as he had expected.

At this moment, the seats in the Restaurant were basically all filled.

Su Yu also saw quite a few Loose Cultivators mingling in the crowd.

They had cultivation at the third or fourth level of Qi Refining, which, to the Mortals here, were existences far out of reach.

Just then, someone arrived at the Restaurant.

Su Yu saw that the newcomer had cultivation at the second level of Qi Refining. Oh, this actually counted as the first Cultivator they had hosted in their Restaurant.

"Welcome, Honored Guest, please come in."

The newcomer looked at Su Yu, "Shopkeeper, I heard the wine here is quite good, so I came specifically to taste it. Don't disappoint me."

"Rest assured, Honored Guest, our wine will not disappoint you. Please follow me."

"Good."

Su Yu led this Cultivator at the second level of Qi Refining to a seat.

"Please wait a moment, Honored Guest, I will have someone bring you the wine immediately."

The Cultivator at the Qi Refinement Stage looked at the jar of wine before him and opened the lid.

A rich aroma of wine wafted out; it was indeed good wine.

The man immediately poured a cup and began to taste it.

After downing a cup, he said, "I certainly didn't come to the wrong place. The wine here is indeed excellent."

"Excellent. Bring me another jar. Oh, and bring me all of your signature dishes as well; I want to have a good feast."

With that, the Cultivator at the second level of Qi Refining took out a Low Grade Spirit Stone. "This will cover the wine bill. You don't need to give me any change."

The appearance of this Spirit Stone shocked everyone.

This meant that the person before them was likely a Cultivator. "The Shopkeeper has made quite a profit this time; that's a Spirit Stone!"

"That's the first time I've ever seen what a Spirit Stone looks like with my own eyes."

Su Yu accepted the Spirit Stone. "Many thanks, Honored Guest. If you have any requests, feel free to ask. I won't disturb you any further."

Su Yu instructed a waiter to take good care of the guest at that table.

The waiter also knew that the person was a Cultivator, so he looked very serious. "Rest assured, Shopkeeper, I definitely won't be careless."

Ling Wanqing observed this scene.

Seeing Su Yu walk over, she said, "Our Restaurant can finally say we've hosted a Cultivator."

Su Yu smiled. "I have a feeling quite a few more Cultivators will be coming in the time ahead."

Meanwhile, the guests in the Restaurant didn't dare act rashly to disturb that person.

That was a Cultivator; he could snuff them out just like that.

As time passed, the time for the Secret Realm to open arrived, and quite a few Cultivators had already gathered here.

Many Mortals, having heard the news, also ran to the entrance of the Secret Realm to watch, wanting to see what the entrance to this legendary Secret Realm looked like.

During that time, the Restaurant was extremely busy; it was packed every day, and Cultivators appeared from time to time.

Now that the Secret Realm had opened, things were a bit more relaxed for the moment, but many people would still come later.

Things went exactly as Su Yu had predicted. A few days later, quite a few more Cultivators appeared in the Restaurant.

They were all discussing matters within the Secret Realm.

These were the Cultivators who had come out from the Secret Realm.

Many people were secretly listening to what these Cultivators were saying.

For them, this was an incredible matter; everything inside the Secret Realm was something that attracted them.

Just then, two people arrived at the Restaurant.

One old, one young.

Su Yu and Ling Wanqing looked at the two who had arrived; they were actually existences at the Foundation Establishment Stage.

At a glance, one could tell this was some young master from a Family, having a Dao Protector accompany him when going out.

The people in the Restaurant also guessed that the identities of these two were not simple.

There were also Cultivators who recognized their identities.

"Oh, I didn't expect people from the Wang Family to come as well."

Furthermore, everyone looked at the old man behind the young man with grave expressions; they could feel the immense pressure that the old man brought upon them.
