Heaven’s Origin was inferior to them in terms of precise manufacturing machinery,
However, Su Mo did not believe they would be better in terms of food.
“Four guests coming in! Sir, please come this way!”
The waiter maintained a friendly attitude after seeing Su Mo dressed in extraordinary clothes and a pistol around his waist.
They were led upstairs along the stairs of the stone house until they reached a table near the table on the third floor. The waiter showed them to the seats with a broad smile.
!!
Their seated position gave them a view of the “prosperous” Origin Territory. Additionally, outsiders’ “envious” gazes would be cast toward them occasionally.
The waitress was very sensible.
She knew the motives of the travelers that dined in their restaurant.
“Sir, this is our menu. Our minimum spending is ten Origin coins, and two pots of tea will be served for free.”
It was just like a restaurant in a civilized era.
Since they were all people from modern times, there was no big difference between their habits.
He flipped the menu and glanced at the first page.
Su Mo could not suppress his joy just by looking at it.
“Haha! The first page has steamed buns, rice, and noodles! This is so realistic!”
In a restaurant in modern civilization, the first page usually consisted of signature dishes to attract consumers regardless of the price.
However, in a restaurant in the doomsday wasteland, there were only three food options on the first page.
Big steamed buns, 1 Origin coin per piece.
Nourishing glutinous rice, 1 Origin coin per bowl.
White noodles, 1 Origin coin per bowl.
There was nothing else apart from these three highly shocking options.
‘One hundred expired bread in exchange for eighty-two steamed buns. The consumption power is good, and they’re going the affordable route.’
Su Mo glanced at the steamed buns being served to other tables.
The size of the seamed buns was reasonable. Most people could consume two with an addition of a few side dishes.
Those who did not have a big appetite would be full from eating one and a half steamed buns.
In a sense, a relatively developed economic system and fast-circulating exchanges with caravans brought many benefits to Origin Territory.
In Hope Village, Su Mo would never be able to meet visitors’ consumption at such a low price.
“Then the other food must be more expensive?”
Turning to the second page, Su Mo confirmed his prediction.
A simple tofu dish costs a terrifying price of 4 Origin coins.
That was enough to buy a pound of flour, but now it cost that much for one dish.
Additionally, a plate of simple stir-fried vegetables cost as high as 3.5 Origin coins, which was not considered cheap.
They would definitely have to order three to four dishes if more people had come with them. It would cost at least four days’ worth of spending on one meal.
As for the meat dishes listed on the following pages, Su Mo immediately dismissed the thought after flipping through them.
500 grams of braised bear meat cost 45 Origin coins in Main Peak Restaurant, which was practically daylight robbery.
Even stir-fried mouse was priced very high and started from 40 Origin coins.
It turned out that he could not afford to have a grand feast even with the 82 Origin coins that he had just received.
“Mr. Yang, our accommodation fees are very cheap and are about 0.5 Origin coin per person for a week. The price can even be negotiated if you want to stay longer. However, that’s because our land isn’t very valuable. We don’t have to pay for anything once the building is built. There are no such things as management fees or tax collections. Thus, it’s really easy money.”
Huang Bing smiled awkwardly after seeing the crazy prices on the menu.
“But, for food…
“With the heavy snow covering the mountains, there has been a decrease in our agriculture cultivation. On top of that, it takes a long time to plant vegetables. The food in the territory is mostly resources that were previously stored or from lucky bags, which is why they are priced higher.
“I can even guarantee that in another month when the next disaster is over, the food prices here will rise if our conditions do not improve!
“Unless we have a stable development of three to five months or if Almighty Su performs a miracle again, then the price of food will only rise!”
Hearing Huang Bing telling the truth, the smile of the waiter beside them froze.
Compared to Huang Bing’s position, a waiter was much worse.
In the future, when all the ordinary refugees were eliminated, the next ones that would be gotten rid of were those working as waiters.
Despite that, he could only laugh and continue to attract customers.
