Chapter 549 Coffee and Tea

Until the end, Lily and Lizzy did not clean up the room. It was not that they were lazy, but that they were tired from playing. One of them held a broom and the other held a trash can, and fell asleep.

Barbara was very angry, but there was nothing she could do about the two lolita, and she couldn't bear to disturb their sweet sleep, so she had to order me to clean the room thoroughly.

After cleaning the whole room, I was so tired that my back ached. I couldn't help but sigh: Cleaning the room is much harder than fighting monsters and upgrading. It's really hard for Barbara.

When we left the cafe, it was already dusk and there were more and more people on the street.

Apart from the rigid lifestyle and never staying up late, there is not much difference between the elves and the humans. They like to drink, taste delicious food, buy beautiful clothes, and maintain their equipment and weapons. I like to watch some outstanding programs.

After sending Lily and Lizzie back to their rooms, we gathered in the quietest restaurant on the street.

While everyone was enjoying the delicious food, they were discussing the prices here.

Obviously, the general prices in Moonlight City are very high, and of course there are absolutely no fakes or inferior products. However, the cafe also pays attention to excellence and no fakes, so in this regard, it is very consistent with the atmosphere of Moonlight City.

But at the same time, this is also the most difficult thing - there is no way to value food such as coffee.

If this happened in other towns, it would be easy to solve. Just ask the prices of all the cafes on the street and average them out to get a similar price.

However, in Moonlight City, there are wine sellers and tea sellers, but there are no cafes that sell coffee. However, there are a few that sell boxed coffee, but they are of no use. They don't even have the basic skills to make coffee. I don’t even know how to do it, let alone sell a small cup of hot, fragrant and delicious coffee.

What Cajiali meant was that the coffee could be sold at the same price as in Airui City. The transportation costs for the raw materials were the same anyway, so she would only make a profit without losing money.

Barbara said that if you can sell it more expensively, try to sell it more expensively, so that you can make money. Moreover, the elves are very rich and don't care about the extra money.

Lilea disagreed with this and expressed her own opinion: "Although the elves are generous and never bargain, these are all prerequisites; first of all, when choosing a product, the elves will consider this item Whether it is useful to you, and secondly, you will consider whether the thing is worth the price in your mind; if you think the price is appropriate, no matter how expensive it is, you will never be stingy. But once you think it is not worth it, even if it is given away for free, we will not be stingy. I won’t want it.”

"In your opinion, what will be the sales volume of coffee in Moonlight City?" I asked Lilea.

Lilea thought for a while, then finally shook her head and said, "I don't know, but in my opinion, I might prefer tea."

"Why?" I asked, "Does tea and coffee make any difference to you?"

"Of course it's different," Lilea said: "The color of the tea is very beautiful, and the smell is also very fragrant. The most important thing is the slightly bitter taste, which is most suitable for the coldness of our elves; on the contrary, the coffee The color is very turbid, and the fragrance is very strong. Most importantly, the bitter taste is hard for me to accept.”

"You can add sugar to coffee," I said, "The coffee after adding sugar is very delicious."

"Yes, that's the key," Lillea said: "We elves prefer pure things. Once sugar is added to coffee, wouldn't it be out of its purest state?"

"Well, does adding sugar count as breaking away from the purest state?" I was a little confused, but after thinking about it, I came up with a new idea: "How about saying that coffee and sugar are like brothers and sisters, inseparable companions of coffee? I guess, in this way, adding sugar to coffee is not a departure from the pure state.”

"Yes, yes!" Barbara said excitedly: "In this way, even if you add milk or chocolate to it, it won't be pure!"

A big bead of sweat hung on Lilea's forehead. The corners of her eyes twitched twice and she said, "Xiao Yi, you are really good at confusing concepts."

"Of course," I said proudly, "This is one of my few strengths."

With the pure problem solved, there seems to be no reason to stop coffee from selling well in Moonlight City.

So, we continued discussing the prices of food and drinks such as coffee.

Since this topic is also related to the guild's funds (the four Cagalli girls all have investments in the cafe), even a fool like Jackson who usually doesn't talk much tried to speak, and the effect of his speech was pretty good. ——I guess, it’s probably related to wanting to leave a good impression on the boss’s wife.

In this lively atmosphere, only Phoenix remained silent, holding my arm while eating white fish.

I counted carefully and found that there were more than twenty main bones of the white fish alone, not counting those that she had already chewed.

It looked like she was really hungry after a busy day in the cafe.

After eating and paying the bill, Fenghuang had already fallen asleep holding my arm. He gently pulled out his arm and slowly picked her up horizontally. All of us tried not to make any noise and walked out of the restaurant quietly.

The elves in the restaurant were still whispering, but when they saw me holding the phoenix, who was sleeping like an angel, they all stopped in unison. It seems that the power of beauty is powerful.

After leaving the door, I smiled and said to Lilea: "You elves are really gentlemen. When they saw Phoenix sleeping, they all kept silent."

Lilea chuckled: "I think it's because Phoenix is ​​pretty. Men are the same everywhere. When they see a beautiful woman, they become a gentleman."

"Hey," I joked, "Listening to what you said, I have quite a lot of resentment towards the men of your elven clan."

"That's not true." She looked at the sky, sighed, and said, "I'm just telling the truth."

I smiled and said no more.

After returning to the guest room and lying on the bed, Cagalli asked me: "When are we going to buy furniture for a house here?"

I thought for a moment and said, "Tomorrow we'll look at the furniture first, and then we'll start buying it after checking the price and style."

Nothing happened all night.

Early the next morning, as soon as she arrived at the cafe, Emily was already waiting there.

I thought she wanted to drink coffee, but it turned out that she came to me for a discussion. So, with her force, we entered the arena and were violently tortured by her again.

Only this time, the time of being abused by her seemed to be longer.

Can it be said that being violently tortured can make my strength gradually grow?

Thinking of this, I decided to go to the adventurer base to do a strength test after my physical strength recovered.
