The Truth About Mona Being "Starved to Death"!

The Herrscher of Knowledge felt it was necessary to let Chen Luo understand what true eloquence was.

"Of course, the closer you are to the Seven Stars Immortal Conferment Ceremony, the better. After all, the closer you are, the better you can filter your target users," Chen Luo said.

After all, since they were already at the Seven Stars Immortal Conferment Ceremony, they must have wanted to meet the Geo Archon.

Since that's the case, it's perfectly normal to want to share in the good fortune of the Geo Archon and buy a lifelike Geo Archon statue, right?

"Let's go, let's head towards the Seven Stars Immortal Conferment Ceremony and see where we can set up stalls nearby. I think there should be places to set up stalls near the Seven Stars Immortal Conferment Ceremony," Chen Luo said.

Chen Luo always felt that as a country that values commerce and contracts, there should at least be a place to sell things in such an important sector.

Just like the fireworks display in Xinghai City.

Chen Luo was unsure whether there would still be any stalls available now that he had arrived so late.

Although Chen Luo didn't know the exact location of the Seven Stars Immortal Conferment Ceremony, Chen Luo learned the location after being guided by a kind-hearted member of the Millelith.

Hearing the other person's stomach growling, Chen Luo gave them three steamed buns.

Liyue Harbor is quite large. Although the map shown in the game is small, it's like Mondstadt City in Mondstadt. The way games and real-world representations are presented is definitely different.

Chen Luo and his group walked for quite a while before they reached the vicinity of the Seven Stars Immortal Conferment Ceremony.

Chen Luo did indeed see stalls nearby, but they were some distance from the Seven Stars Immortal Conferment Ceremony.

Perhaps because the Seven Stars Immortal Conferment Ceremony is not to be trifled with, no one sets up a stall within a certain area.

"Don't miss out! Precious portable compressed food from abroad is on sale at a low price. No more worrying about going hungry when you're out delivering goods. Just one biscuit can sustain you for a day. Plus, there are many flavors to choose from, so there's bound to be one you'll like! Honest and fair dealing, limited quantities, while supplies last, first come, first served!"

"Hmm?" Chen Luo frowned, sensing that things were not so simple.

Chen Luo felt that the voice seemed a little familiar.

And this introduction... is even more familiar.

Chapter 314 The Truth Behind Mona's "Starvation Death"!

"Thank you for your patronage!" Mona said with a smile as she saw off a man who looked like a caravan leader.

"Phew, these things are really selling well. Once I sell them all, I should be able to afford that astrology instrument. Astrology instrument, my astrology instrument..." Mona smiled again as she thought of the latest version of the astrology instrument.

Instant noodles and compressed biscuits are two items that sell very well in Liyue Harbor.

This is especially true for merchants who need to travel quickly, making it even easier to sell their goods.

For merchants and caravan leaders like these, the biggest problem is food storage during their round trip.

Sometimes, when the weather is bad, you can't even start a fire or cook a meal.

The key issue is that sometimes the bags used to hold dry food are not waterproof, which can easily make the food wet.

But compressed biscuits perfectly solve these problems.

Moreover, the compressed biscuits taste really good. At least the compressed biscuits sold at Chen Luo's bar are incredibly delicious, so delicious that they're almost as good as the dishes cooked by chefs in restaurants.

So Mona's compressed biscuits used to sell quite well after she brought them back from the bar.

This time, however, Chen Luo gave Mona three boxes of compressed biscuits and three boxes of instant noodles, which she couldn't sell all at once.

Fortunately, it just so happened that the Seven Star Rite of Descension was held, so all the goods could be sold.

Compressed biscuits sell well, so instant noodles sell even better.

Compressed biscuits are generally used for traveling, but instant noodles can be used in any situation.

Therefore, instant noodles usually sell much better than compressed biscuits.

Sure enough, there's still half a box of compressed biscuits left, but all the instant noodles are already sold out.

Well, if we sell for another few minutes, we should be able to sell out everything.

"Logically speaking, Chen Luo can't possibly not open the bar for two days in a row, and he ate a good breakfast this morning, so he can just go hungry all day." Mona encouraged herself.

And I'll try not to lose weight in the future.

Picking them up could lead to someone's death.

As for returning to a life of poverty...

Sorry, but because Chen Luo's almost god-like cooking skills have spoiled my appetite, Mona would rather starve than eat dirt.

Chen Luo had always had a question: why did he always ask for a box of compressed biscuits after Mona finished eating? But since it was what she wanted, Chen Luo wouldn't refuse.

But Chen Luo was puzzled by one thing: what exactly did Mona do with all that instant noodles and compressed biscuits? Even if a person is a pig, they can't possibly show off a whole box of instant noodles and a whole box of compressed biscuits.

If I simply don't prepare dinner and breakfast for the other person for one day, the other person could starve to death in my shop.

Although the instant noodles and compressed biscuits at home tasted quite good because they were from a bar, one person's stomach has its limits.

Furthermore, Mona claimed that she shared it with her friends, but frankly speaking, Chen Luo n't think Mona could have any friends.

It's not that Chen Luo said there was anything wrong with Mona, but Mona basically doesn't use astrology for personal gain. However, if someone asks Mona to do a fortune telling for them, Mona will help.

However, Mona's mouth can be described as quite direct, or rather, quite blunt, and she always manages to deliver a major blow to others using astrology.

So it's really impossible to say that Mona has many friends.

So here's the question: even if you have one or two friends, how could you possibly show off a whole box of compressed biscuits and instant noodles?

This isn't a tangerine.

Besides, eating too many tangerines can also cause problems.

Mona, who was calculating in her mind how much money she would have left after selling all the instant noodles and compressed biscuits and buying the astrology instrument, to buy the research material she had always wanted, suddenly felt as if she had been shrouded in a shadow.

This proves that a customer has come to their stall.

"You have excellent taste, sir. My..." Because her view was blocked by the large hat, Mona had to look up to see the person who came in.

When Mona raised her head halfway up and saw the other person's lower body clothing, Mona body suddenly stiffened.

These pants look so familiar.

Did I see him this morning?

Water Release! The interplay of reality and illusion!

Mona's reflexes were sharp enough; Mona vaguely remembered waking up hungry in a bar that morning and seeing a pair of pants identical to the ones she was wearing now.

While it's normal for some people to wear the same style of pants, the problem is that those pants are being worn by Chen Luo, who is from Different World.

Besides, even if there's a 1 in 10,000 chance that the pants collided, Mona had only ever seen Chen Luo fly at a position less than 10 centimeters above the ground. So, let's not say anything more and just get out of here.

As for that half-box of compressed biscuits still on the stall? Forget about it.

As for bumping into the other person again when you went back to the bar?

There's no way I'll never go to a bar again; I'll never go in my life. At worst, I can just pretend I don't know anything about it, right?

If you can't see the other person because you're wearing a hat, then the other person probably can't see you either.

Yes, that's it.

Limited Edition Hat - "Covering One's Ears While Stealing a Bell".

"Snap!" Watching Mona instantly transform into a ball of water, Chen Luo simply snapped his fingers.

Then Mona was vomited out.

Chen Luo's Elemental Eye is a five-star item. The true Vision is of unknown level, but it is definitely lower than five-star.

Therefore, Chen Luo sometimes has a higher priority in controlling water-related attributes.

This is a little trick that Chen Luo has only recently figured out.

Although it's of no use.

Just as Mona, looking completely bewildered, was about to continue her stealth, a hand gently rested on Mona shoulder.

"Oh, look who I've seen here?" Chen Luo's slightly teasing voice rang out, causing Mona to completely give up her resistance.

That's how things are. If you're not caught red-handed, you can try to argue your way out of it, but once you're caught, it's obvious you can't escape.

"Haha, hey, isn't this Alo? What are you doing in Liyue? You should have said you were coming to Liyue earlier. As the host, how could I possibly treat you badly?" Mona turned around stiffly and then put on a clumsy performance.

"If it were someone else, I'm not sure, but you definitely don't have the ability or the money to entertain me." Chen Luo rolled his eyes at Mona.

"Haha..." Mona laughed awkwardly, too embarrassed to retort.

Because that's just how things are.

Having been caught red-handed, Mona had no way to escape and obediently returned to her seat at her stall.

"Alright, let's get down to business. What brings you here, Alo?" Mona tried to steer the conversation in another direction.

"I'm just accompanying Shenhe to observe the Seven Stars Immortal Conferment Ceremony, and also to test whether Shenhe is suitable to return to human society now," Chen Luo said, pointing to Shenhe beside him.

"Oh dear, you should have told me about this beforehand. Although I don't have any money, I've been living in Liyue for a while now," Mona said confidently.

At the same time, Mona breathed a sigh of relief.

Chen Luo finally managed to steer the conversation off-topic; that's good, that's good.

"Hey boss, how much are your emergency biscuits?" Suddenly, a well-to-do middle-aged man dressed like a businessman walked over and asked.

"... Um, no, I'm not selling it. Don't talk nonsense, I just put it up for everyone to see, it's not for sale." Mona waved her hands hurriedly.

"Hey, you're such a strange person. The sign is right there, and it's set up within the commercial stall area. You're saying you won't sell the goods?" The merchant suddenly became somewhat dissatisfied.

That merchant just saw someone buy a bunch of things from Mona.

Why don't they sell when it's their turn?

Is it because I'm a foreigner that you're discriminating against me based on my regional origin?

"That..."

Mona glanced at Chen Luo standing... flying beside her, and then strengthened her resolve not to sell.

"Sell? Of course I'll sell, brother. She's running a business, how could she not sell? Besides, the price is right there on the sign. This last half box of compressed biscuits is the last thing. How about I give you a 20% discount? Take them all if you want."

Just as Mona was about to continue speaking, Chen Luo covered Mona mouth with a ball of Hydro Element.

"This... Brother, can you make that decision?" The merchant looked at Chen Luo uncertainly, then looked at Mona.

"..." Mona, whose mouth was covered by the Hydro Element and who dared not resist, could only nod when she saw the merchant looking at her.

She had wanted to buy it anyway, and now that Chen Luo, the real owner of the compressed biscuits, had spoken up, how could Mona refuse to sell?

It's that... Mona is a little unsure whether the money from the sale will go to her or Chen Luo.

While giving it to Chen Luo seemed perfectly normal, Mona was still a little short of money to buy that astrology device...

"That's great, I'll take them all. Speaking of which, I heard a while ago that there was a strangely dressed female holder of the Vision selling a magical special biscuit that not only fills you up but also tastes amazing. I haven't seen her yet, but it looks like the brothers are in for a treat this time."

"The only pity is that this lady seems to have a limited supply. She only brings out one box to sell each time. If she had a large quantity of goods, she could ship them to other countries for sale and perhaps make a lot of money. After all, I've been traveling all over the country for so long, and this is the first time I've seen this type of product."

"I heard that someone is currently trying to make a copy of this, but the counterfeit emergency biscuits taste terrible and are very dry, so they're not popular in the market," the businessman muttered as he pulled out his Mora.

"Mmm..."

Stop talking, stop talking.

If you're going to buy it, then buy it. Stop saying anything more.

Mona felt like this last businessman was about to drain her of all her savings.

"Hmm, you want to buy in bulk?" Chen Luo pondered for a moment before looking at the merchant in front of him.

"Yes, this stuff is delicious, inexpensive, and easy to carry, making it perfect for replenishing energy during a caravan's journey." The merchant nodded.

[Ding! You have a new request!]

[Purchase]: Provide at least 20 boxes of compressed biscuits.

Reward: 5 Primogem (5 Primogem /box, maximum 20 boxes)

Difficulty: Two stars

"Hey buddy, could you wait a minute? I do have a connection that can get at least 20 boxes of these emergency biscuits. Interested in buying some? But I need to discuss it with them first," Chen Luo said, pointing to Mona.
