The effect of the “Hair Care Day” notice was very positive. Those customers who had not been very convinced initially were sure now. Even though it hurt to spend 10,000 copper coins, it was nothing compared to having hair again.
“Miss Miya, look at my hair line. It has already receded back for half a finger joint.”
“Miss Miya, his condition is not a big deal. See, the top of my head has no hair at all.”
“Miss Miya, look at my bald head. Isn’t it big and round?”
The customers began to prove that they were having hair loss problems with all they had. Yabemiya was shocked by them.
Some of them might look normal, but in fact half of their hair was fake.
The 25 bowls of ‘Buddha jumps over the wall’ that were reserved for people with hair loss problems were all taken very soon. Mag had made two urns of ‘Buddha jumps over the wall’ today, so the rest would be first come, first serve.
A bulky knight with a big beard sat down, and said to Miya, “I heard that you guys have a kind of soup that could increase a person’s power after drinking it. Does it really exist? Give me eight to 10 bowls of it first.”
Yabemiya flipped the menu open and placed it in front of the knight with a smile as she said, “Our restaurant only has one soup, ‘Buddha jumps over the wall’, but I am not sure if your power will increase after drinking it. Here is the menu, dear customer. You can have a look first. Everyone is only allowed to order one bowl of ‘Buddha jumps over the wall’. If you want it, I can order it for you.”
“Ony one bowl?” Lev frowned as his gaze landed on the menu. ‘Buddha jumps over the wall’—10,000 copper coins for a helping.
“???”
Lev blinked again to make sure he didn’t count some zeroes extra. He raised his head to ask Miya, “Did you guys make a mistake in the menu?”
“There is no mistake in the menu.” Miya shook her head.
“Erm... This...” Lev felt around in his pockets, and an awkward expression appeared on his face. He hesitantly asked, “Can I buy half a helping?”
Miya shook her head. “I’m sorry. This restaurant doesn’t sell half a helping.”
Lev looked even more embarrassed. He only had 5,000 copper coins in all of his pockets. Who in their right mind would bring so much money out for a meal? Moreover, he had just come back from a mercenary mission, and heard about this incident at the Mercenaries’s Guild. He was stuck at the 5th-tier for four years with no hope of further advancement. Thus, he wanted to try it immediately.
Lev removed his sword after he pondered and said to Miya, “Erm... Then, do you guys accept credit? I will leave my sword here, and I will come back for it tomorrow.”
“I am sorry. Mamy Restaurant only accepts cash as payment. We don’t accept credit or impawning.” Miya shook her head and smiled. “You can look at the other dishes on the menu. They, too, are very delicious.”
Lev would have flared up if he had been at some other restaurant that rejected all his requests, but this lady server was smiling during the entire interaction, and her demeanor was very polite, so he wasn’t angry at all. Instead, he was embarrassed that he didn’t bring enough money and caused trouble for her.
He retrieved his gaze away from the ‘Buddha jumps over the wall’ unwillingly, and then looked at the other dishes. He ordered a helping of red braised pork and one small grilled fish.
“Miss Miya, we’d like to have six helpings of ‘Buddha jumps over the wall’ here.” The young knight who had been boasting to his friends at the guild’s entrance earlier waved and placed an order with a smile.
“My heavens! This ‘Buddha jumps over the wall’ costs 10,000 copper coins for a helping.” A team member flipped the menu open, and his eyes almost popped out when he saw the price.
The other mercenaries looked over when they heard him. They all looked shocked when they saw the price.
Their mercenary unit was only a small contingent, so they normally would only accept missions that were not too difficult or dangerous. Therefore, accordingly, their pay wasn’t high.
Furthermore, they liked to drink alcohol and gamble at the gambling dens. Hence, they wouldn’t have so much money to buy a bowl of soup, even though that soup could increase their power.
The leader of the mercenaries also looked hesitant after he glanced at the menu.
“Haha. To celebrate my advancement today, I am giving you all a treat. Order whatever you like. Everything in this restaurant is very scrumptious,” the young knight said smilingly.
Bowl after bowl of ‘Buddha jumps over the wall’ was carried out and sent to the customers. The restaurant was filled with that amazing aroma.
“M-my hair. Is it growing out?”
“Mama Mia! I have hair!!!”
“I have advanced!!!”
There were frequent exclamations from customers with hair loss and knights in the restaurant. Even though the restaurant forbade noises, most of the customers were willing to overlook it as they were happy events. Some customers even congratulated them.
Another one advanced. This ‘Buddha jumps over the wall’ really can advance a knight’s power. Lev extended his neck to look around; even the red braised pork in front of him couldn’t hold his attention. He was surprised yet worried.
“Erm... Can you reserve a bowl of ‘Buddha jumps over the wall’ for me, please? I am going back to get money. I’ll be back soon.” Lev waved Miya over and pleaded with her.
“I am sorry, dear customer. ‘Buddha jumps over the wall’ is sold out for today. If you want to have it, please come earlier tomorrow evening,” Miya said with a smile.
“It’s sold out?” Lev glared. This was a 10,000 copper coins-per-helping dish, and it was sold out so quickly? How rich were these people?!
“Yes. Please continue to enjoy your meal.” Miya nodded, and then walked to the next customer.
“Adams, take a look for me. Is hair growing out? Just a little?” Charney poked his head over to Adams excitedly.
“Yes, your hair has grown out a little,” Adams replied smilingly with a nod as he looked at the fine hair growing out of Charney’s bald head.
“Fantastic! I finally have hair again!!!” Charney clenched his fists agitatedly with an elated expression. He hugged Adams and clapped his back, and then stood up to hug that businessman who came with him with a bright smile.
Adams stared at Charney with surprise. This was the first time that he had seen him so happy. His father, who had always gone around with his bald head, actually had wanted to have hair too. It looked like he had failed as a son. He should have communicated with his father more often.
“Helping people with hair loss. Mission progress: 29/30... 30/30.”
Mag smiled as he looked at the progress bar that was completed. With System, this stumbling block, this mission was completed easily.
“Ding!
“System’s learning is completed!
“1024T resources were successfully downloaded!
“Host, you are so naughty!
The system’s voice suddenly appeared at this time.
