[Genshin Impact]: I can become stronger by cooking

Seeing that it was getting late, Chao Ke simply gave up his plan to go to Wanmin Hall and decided to take down the remaining recipes in Liyue Harbor today.

First, the [Liuli Pavilion] and [Xinyue Pavilion] which were closest to him.

Although the number of recipes produced by these two companies is not large, there are 6 in total, which is a considerable number.

God seemed to be helping Chao Ke, as the waitresses on duty at the two houses were the same two in the game.

The colorful glass of the Liuli Pavilion restaurant and the sparse moonlight of the Xinyuexuan restaurant.

Chao Ke first tried to communicate with the two of them, wanting to bypass the restaurant and get the recipes directly from them.

After all, what Chao Ke wanted was not the restaurant’s kitchen version, but just their understanding of the dishes.

But the trip was not smooth. Both Li Cai and Yue Shu clearly rejected Chao Ke's request.

"Oh, that's troublesome."

It makes sense. Liyue is a country that attaches great importance to [Contracts]. As waiters in a high-end restaurant, Li Cai and Yue Shu must have excellent professionalism.

Unlike Sangnetti at the Fontaine de Pau Hotel, who revealed everything after being coerced and lured.

Helplessly, Chao Ke could only ask the two ladies to contact the person in charge of the restaurant to discuss the menu issue.

In the end, the two people who came were not the restaurant owners, but the restaurant managers.

After expressing their demands, both of them shook their heads and said with a hint of arrogance that this matter was unrealistic and the restaurant's recipes would not be easily circulated.

He sighed at Ke, then revealed his identity as a high-ranking member of the Fatui.

The two managers immediately turned serious and humble, and changed their tone to say that this matter was not unrealistic, but it was not so easy to handle, and they might need to ask for instructions.

Chao Ke had no choice but to take out two checks worth 10 million Mora from his arms and quietly put them into the pockets of the two men.

The two managers took a quick glance at the amount on the check, their expressions began to become somewhat flattering, and then they changed their tone, saying that this was a negotiable matter, and asked the waitresses of their respective restaurants to start writing recipes on the spot.

They also jointly invited Chao Ke to have lunch upstairs.

Chao Ke's mouth twitched. Well, Liyue is still the same Liyue. So classic.

He patted their shoulders and said to Ke.

"I still like your rebellious look at the beginning. You should recover for a while."

[Liuli Pavilion] Private room on the second floor.

"Is it not too much of a hassle to arrange a table for me? I heard that the seats in your restaurant are quite tight."

"It's not difficult, it's not difficult. It's my honor to have dinner with Mr. Chao Ke."

He smiled at Ke but said nothing.

[The Fatui's military force] can make the two talk properly, but it cannot get the recipe.

[Expensive Mora], maybe I can get the recipe, but I can't make these two talk properly. I'm afraid I have to kneel down to get the recipe.

Only with the [military force of the Fatui] and the [expensive Mora] of Mora can they get the recipe while standing.

"May I ask which Fatui leader Mr. Chao Ke is from?"

"I am from the Fontaine branch."

"Disrespectful, disrespectful."

As the conversation started and the two managers flattered each other, the atmosphere among the three of them became pleasant.

During the meal, Chao Ke asked the two managers a question out of curiosity.

"I have heard about the rules of your [Liuliting] and [Xinyuexuan]."

"We only serve a few tables of guests during a fixed time period throughout the day. If you want to dine in, you have to make a reservation several months in advance. The key is that even dignitaries are not allowed to cut in line."

“Isn’t there any high-ranking officials who use their influence to forcefully cut in line?”

The reason why Chao Ke asked this was because he didn't think these two managers were the type of people who would stick to the rules.

The two managers looked at each other and laughed at the same time.

"Haha, Mr. Chao Ke, you don't live in Liyue often, so it seems you don't understand some of the twists and turns."

Then the manager of Xinyuexuan told Chao Ke how these two restaurants "stick to the rules".

"In our Liyue Harbor, people all love to eat, and the nobles are no exception."

"For example, Feiyun Chamber of Commerce and Lord Ningguang, they both have a group of private chefs, and their skills are no worse than those of the chefs in our restaurant."

"It's not like a big shot like this would openly break the rules in front of the people of Liyue Harbor just to make a quick buck."

The owner of [Liuliting] took a sip of tea and started to supplement.

"Mr. Chao Ke, you don't know that both our [Liulitian] and their [Xinyuexuan] have saturated chef quotas."

"Even if some dignitary specifically requests to taste the food in our restaurant, our kitchen can quickly form a team and go to the master's house to prepare it personally."

"No matter how good the service in our restaurant is, it can't compare to the servants in those masters' houses. They enjoy eating at home more than they do here."

"The saturated number of chefs also ensures that even if a wave of people are transferred out, it will not affect the operation of the restaurant."

"Clap clap clap."

Applauding Ke, "Excellent, really wonderful."

"What if some dignitaries really want to dine in the restaurant? As far as I know, there are some gourmets in Liyue Harbor who are willing to eat in this environment."

The manager of Xinyuexuan had an intriguing smile on his face.

"Then may I ask Mr. Chao Ke, where are we having dinner now?"

Chao Ke was stunned and was about to answer [Liuliting], but when he looked at the several moon dishes on the table, he didn't know how to answer for a moment.

Suddenly, Chao Ke understood something, "So this is how it is solved..."

"Yes, this private room is on the second floor of the [Liuli Pavilion], but it is not the [Liuli Pavilion]! Look, isn't there a moon dish on the table?"

"From the chefs to the waiters, to the decoration and even the land, all belong to Liuli Pavilion."

"But the wonderful thing about it is that it is not under the jurisdiction of [Liuli Pavilion]. It has been rented out by our boss for a long time."

"So it's not breaking the rules to bring guests here for dinner."

"Of course, not only in our [Liuli Pavilion], but also on the second floor of [Xinyue Pavilion] over there, there is also such a room."

Chao Ke was convinced.

Liyue Harbor is truly a city full of merchants. No one who can make a name for himself in this place is a simple person.

As the party came to an end, two waitresses from [Liuliting] and [Xinyuexuan], Li Cai and Yue Shu, also came up.

"Mr. Chao Ke, this is the recipe you asked me to write, [Yangang Three Fresh Vegetables], [Fried Crispy Pork in Oil], [Dry Pot Bacon], and [Braised Meatballs]. Please take a look."

The first one to come up was Li Cai. After I took the recipe she handed over, the system also sounded a prompt.

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining the recipe - Yangang Three Fresh Dishes]

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining the recipe - Deep-fried Double Crispy]

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining the recipe - Dry Pot Bacon]

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining the recipe - Braised Pork Balls]

After Li Cai handed over the recipe, she saw that Chao Ke had no problem with it, so she bowed slightly and took her leave.

Yue Shu who was standing by also came up.

"Mr. Chao Ke, this is the recipe you asked me to write, [Dry Fried Fish] and [Moonlight Eggs], please take a look."

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining the recipe - Fried Fish Noodles]

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining the recipe - Moon Egg]

[Number of recipes unlocked in the food illustrations: 61]

After burping, Chao Ke walked out of the [Liuli Pavilion] leisurely.

The meal was quite enjoyable, but the biggest gain was a glimpse into the real business society of Liyue.

It is very similar to those in Chao Ke’s previous life.

All I can say is, there's nothing new under the sun.

Walk along the street of "Feiyunpo" towards "Chihuyan".

Passing by the Wanmintang restaurant, I didn’t expect that Chef Mao’s business was quite good today, and there were quite a few people sitting at the table.

Chao Ke didn't go forward to bother him, but continued walking forward.

His target is Xiaoyu from Liyue General Affairs Department.

After all, she has three recipes to explore.

On the way to find Xiaoyu, Chao Ke passed by the [Hanfeng Ironware] blacksmith shop.

The banging sound of iron hammering made Chao Ke stop and watch for a while.

At this time, the person in charge of [Hanfeng Ironware] is still the old owner Han Feng.

He is still in good health and can still work hard. Unlike in the plot, he has not returned to Qingce Manor to retire.

Han Feng waved the hammer and said to his son beside him, "Look carefully, boy, this white iron ore is beaten like this, and the result is good."

"There are also these rare minerals, which are rare. Watch how I, your father, handle them. When you are in charge in the future, don't be too hasty..."

Perhaps because he realized that his health was deteriorating rapidly, Han Feng taught his son very carefully, wanting to pass on his half-life experience intact.

After watching for a while, Chao Ke left.

After all, business is more important. After getting the three recipes from Xiaoyu, the recipe collection plan in Liyue Harbor has come to an end.
