"It must be a miscalculation. At most, this entire meal is worth 1,500." Kristina also felt that 100,000 was an outrageous price.
"There's no mistake. If you don't believe me, look at the bill!" the waitress said with a look of feigned innocence, handing the bill to Ye Xiu.
Ye Xiu took the bill, and after a single glance, he chuckled in exasperation. "5,000 for a bowl of rice?"
"The rice we serve isn't ordinary; it's imported."
"And as you know," the waitress continued, spouting utter nonsense with a straight face, "besides King Island, the other islands in the Eternal Islands are either occupied by invaders, trapped by Formations, or in the midst of war. The price of rice and all sorts of other goods has skyrocketed."
She can really lie with a straight face… Ye Xiu took a deep breath, fuming. He had no evidence to refute the claim about the price of rice, especially since the price hikes on King Island were, ironically, his own doing.
