I am a living immortal.

At the request of the shipowner.

The ship traveled very fast and arrived at the final stop a day earlier than planned.

Nothing major happened afterwards and we arrived safely.

After this incident, Su Mu felt that the ship owner would not take passengers on the next few trips. It was weird.

Su Mu packed up and pulled the old goat off the boat. The old goat was a little depressed and felt suffocated in the cabin.

Say goodbye to the old man I drank with before, and be sure to visit him with good wine next time.

The old man smiled and nodded: "Go down quickly, the road is long, be careful along the way."

"Take care of yourself!!"

He patted the old goat's head and pulled him into the market.

The pier at this final stop is connected to the most prosperous area, and there is a long market right after you get off the boat.

There are people selling horses, renting cars, and bookshops, restaurants and inns selling pens, ink, paper and inkstones. It is obvious that these places are prepared for scholars, and the air is filled with the fragrance of books. What's even more outrageous is that

Su Mu asked casually.

As long as you are taking the exam, there will be discounts, and they are not small. The main goal is to cast a wide net and let these scholars experience in advance what it feels like to be the best.

You have to remember what I look like.

Use some small profits to maximize your interests. You see, other places don’t look favorably upon you, but I’m different. I look favorably upon everyone. Are you touched?

It gave those scholars a very good first impression.

Whoever came up with this idea is a fucking genius.

But no matter how expensive it is, Su Mu is ready to have a good meal today. The food on the boat is not bad, but it’s fish every meal. No matter how delicious it is, she can’t stand eating it this way.

Su Mu chose the one with the largest number of people, called Shiweilou, and walked in.

"What~"

"I know, I know. I will definitely give you the freshest grass."

The old goat nodded.

This goat is getting smarter and smarter. He wouldn't be too surprised if it suddenly spoke one day.

Give the old goat to the waiter.

Su Mu was welcomed into the inn and sat down at a table by the window. The waiter swiftly called out the names of the dishes, having said them a thousand times so many times that he was extremely familiar with them.

"Stop, stop, stop. You've given us too much information. Just tell us about our signature dishes."

"Okay, sir, don't underestimate this restaurant. The owner's restaurant is very famous in Wending City, and the chef he hired is also a master chef."

"Our roast goose is the most famous. We select geese that are only a hundred days old and are the most delicious. We also have this crucian carp soup."

After saying this, the waiter glanced at Su Mu and saw that she frowned slightly. He knew that this guest came by boat, so he skipped the introduction and announced the name of the next dish.

"Crispy Lamb, a one-year-old lamb, grilled over charcoal, crispy on the outside, tender and juicy, paired with this secret sauce, one bite is guaranteed to be unforgettable."

"Stir-fried asparagus is crispy and refreshing, and chicken and spring bamboo shoots are seasonal dishes you can't eat in other seasons."

"........."

The waiter listed more than a dozen dishes in a row. Su Mu ordered the first few, which were expensive and she was confident that if they were not delicious, she would not have ordered them at the beginning.

He poured a cup of tea for Su Mu, told her to wait a moment, and went to notify the kitchen.

This restaurant has many customers and is very lively.

Just by looking at what is already on the table, you can tell that the craftsmanship is very good.

There are many returning customers.

What surprised Su Mu the most was that there were several tables of sloppy men sitting in a corner of the restaurant. The dishes on the tables were not very good, just pickled vegetable tofu soup, a few steamed buns, and a plate of pickled radish.

The waiter didn't chase anyone away.

Moreover, a special area was specially designated, which not only made it convenient for those sloppy men, but also did not offend other guests, killing two birds with one stone.

When the waiter came back, he saw Su Mu looking at him.

He then began to explain, "Guest, you may not know this, but this is our family's tradition, and it's also a good deed. We built this business through hard work. When we were young, we had to beg for food, endure hunger, and even compete with stray dogs for food, so we founded the Food House."

"puff!!"

A wealthy middle-aged man at the next table spat out a mouthful of tea, while the middle-aged scholar next to him looked helpless.

The waiter looked at him with a strange look.

The wealthy man said apologetically, "Sorry! Sorry, I drank too quickly."

Su Mu gestured to the waiter to continue.

“So we founded the Food and Taste Building, saying that we should eat the flavor of delicacies and savor the human nature.”

"I see, your boss is really a kind person."

The waiter nodded in agreement.

The wealthy man whispered to the middle-aged man next to him, "This is too outrageous. I've only been down and out for a while. When have I ever had to ask for food, let alone compete with stray dogs for food? This is too outrageous."

The scholar shook his head and laughed, "Rumors, rumors. You know, when things are spread by word of mouth, they tend to be exaggerated."

"It's true that they eat delicious food and appreciate people's feelings."

“You can engrave it under the plaque when the time comes.”

The scholar shook his head and laughed, but Su Mu asked him to take another look. The man spoke with a long breath, and judging from his expression, he was calm and composed regardless of whether he believed it or not. This temperament was extremely rare.

Seeing this, the wealthy man smiled and said, "Brother, you're not going to tell people's fortunes again, are you? I tell you, not everyone is as easy to fool as I am."

"What nonsense! What I read is not physiognomy, that's called judging people. I saw that you were destined to be rich and powerful, so I brought you back. Now you are rich, and it also solves the problem of the wine that the old master owed on credit. Otherwise, you would have been beaten to death if you went out."

The wealthy man heard all these complaints and said, "Brother, the way you say this makes me doubt whether you are a scholar. How come your words are so inconsistent with your appearance?"

"What do you mean by inconsistent? That's called restraint. I think that young man is really good."

"Please stop that... You're lucky to have fooled me. If you want to fool someone as accomplished as me again, you'd better forget about it." The wealthy man looked helpless.

This senior brother of his is good in every way except that he likes to recruit disciples everywhere on behalf of his master.

If he didn't have money and sent those people away, their master's broken hilltop would have been overcrowded.

"Alright, alright, let's talk business." The wealthy man stopped talking immediately, fearing that his senior brother would really run over and want to accept the man as his disciple, and then be treated as a lunatic and kicked out. He couldn't afford to lose face like this.

When it comes to serious matters, the middle-aged Confucian scholar is quite serious.

“How many of them fell here?”

"That's a lot. The Demon Slayer Division has gotten into a terrible mess this time. The entire first volume of the Complete Book of Monsters has been lost. Thousands of portraits engraved with traces of the true meaning of monsters have disappeared into the sky and scattered throughout the land of Yan State. Just imagine how serious this incident is."

"What on earth is going on with this Demon-Slaying Division?" asked the middle-aged scholar with a frown.
