1704 Liquor of Martial World (2/2)
The two young men looked tall and beautiful. It could be told from their behavior that they had been strictly trained for this. They were wearing clean and white clothes, which gave a good impression to the customers.
The tavern looked dirty and low from the outside, but inside, it was so clean and bright. That was a strong visual impact indeed!
Ye Xiao said, ”This is my first time to come here. I wonder what specialties you have for us. Why don't you give me your menu?”
A young man in white clothes came over and gave Ye Xiao a menu. The menu was white, and the handwriting was neat. It didn't seem so special, but it was special indeed.
”My honorable guest, it costs ten purple spirit coins to look at the menu.”
Ye Xiao was surprised. ”Do I need to pay for this too?”
”That's correct. Our menus are one-time products. After you, nobody else is going to have this menu in your hand again. You can leave with the menu or just leave it here with your name on it. If you want us to keep it, there is an extra cost of ten purple spirit coins.”
”Oh, if you want the menu with your name on it to be more eye-catching, we only charge one thousand purple spirit coins to put it on the wall. In that case, you can write anything you want on the menu, like a poem.”
The young man in white clothes politely said.
Ye Xiao was a bit lost. 'What the hell is this all about? I am paying ten purple spirit coins to look at the menu, and another ten purple spirit coins to give the menu back to you? If I want to write something on the menu, I have to pay one thousand purple spirit coins! What the hell? This is ridiculous!'
Ye Xiao looked around and he did see some menus sticking on the wall. Some of them were covered with black silk.
”People die in the martial world. Those menus under the black silk belong to our honorable guests who are dead… Although they have left the living world, we won't take their menus off. We just put it on the black silk with respect and tribute.”
The man in white clothes explained.
”Well, then.” Ye Xiao was wordless.
He was so impressed by how the tavern ran the business in such an unbelievable way.
When he came to the tavern, he decided to give up the thought about ransacking this town.
However, now he had another idea.
”What a splendid idea! Even a bird makes a sound when it flies over the sky. It must be my destiny that leads me here. I should definitely leave my name in this tavern. You guys will witness the beginning of a legend! One thousand purple spirit coins it is!” Ye Xiao laughed and said, ”Bring me the pen and the ink!”
The young man in white clothes slightly twisted the lips. 'Another moron again… The beginning of a legend? Oh, yes. I wonder how far can you go before you die out there…'
He must have seen too many stupid rich men in this tavern.
He had seen several within the year…
Every youngster who just started their journey to the martial world believed that he was the chosen one… who was bound to leave his great name in history…
No matter what the man thought, he must quickly bring back the ink and pen for Ye Xiao with a warm smile.
Ye Xiao nodded and started to write on the menu.
”The Xiao Monarch, who stirs up the chaotic storms in the world, will become the supremacy of the world. With the sword in his hand, he is leaving his name in this place of the Limitless Ocean!”
In the end, he wrote down his name followed by the date.
That was it.
After that, he started to order food.
Ye Xiao was still young, and he still had a playful heart. Leaving this menu with his writings here was more like a joke he made, but many years after, this menu would become the most famous scenic spot of the Limitless Ocean!
Nobody had thought that the great Xiao Monarch left his only handwriting with a full signature in this small tavern in the Liquor of Martial World!
After he conquered the entire universe, the owner of the Black Town kept this menu and put it on somewhere well-marked, and worshiped it like it was their great ancestors…
People who had the chance to pay respect to the menu would always bow humbly and go to the tavern and order the same things Ye Xiao ate.
On the first page of the menu, there was the first dish, which had become famous.
'A Sword in Martial World.'
”With the sword in hand, the journey to the world begins! That is nice! I will take one!”
The second dish was Grace and Enmity.
”That is the spirit of the martial world! Nice! Bring it on!”
The third was Fight with Life and Death!
”That is something essential in the martial world! Good! Give me one!”
The fourth dish was Tangle in the Mortal World.
”Good! I will take this one!”
After ordering over twenty dishes on the menu, Ye Xiao saw the name of a special dish. He was touched.
It was Supreme Rosy Cheek.
”This is such a good name. I will take it too!”
He had ordered over twenty dishes, and the cheapest one of them cost fifty purple spirit coins. The most expensive dish was actually nine hundred and ninety-nine purple spirit coins. It cost him over seven thousand purple spirit coins to have these dishes!
In the end, he added one more dish. It was soup, and he liked its name.
The Tangle of Red and Green.
He was going to meet Xuan Bing and Jun Yinglian again. The Tangle of Red and Green somehow reminded him of the happy times, so he ordered it as well.
The Flower King frowned because Ye Xiao obviously ordered much more than they needed. Ye Xiao didn't care, he just waved his hand and said, ”Bring them up!”
The young waiters in white clothes were shocked by such a prodigal guest.
Every dish in the Liquor of Martial World was thousands of times more expensive than the same dishes in other places.
There were always rich people who came to this tavern, but nobody would really order so many dishes at the same time.
Liquor of Martial World wouldn't worry if the guests could pay for the bill or not, because the guests would have to pay before the dishes were served… Nobody was going to have a free meal at this place!
When the dishes were up, Ye Xiao realized that he was deceived.
