That night, Li Yi stayed in the Drunken Sky Tower.
The manager of the Drunken Sky Restaurant, Wang Fugui, gave Li Yi one of the best guest rooms in the Drunken Sky Restaurant without taking a single cent.
The next morning.
After Li Yi woke up and washed up, he opened the door and walked out of the room. However, he realized that the manager of the Drunken Cloud Restaurant, Wang Fugui, was already waiting at the door.
"Little Master, what do you want for breakfast? I'll order someone to prepare it now."
Seeing Li Yi come out, Wang Fugui immediately walked over with a fawning smile.
If Li Yi used it well, he would be a cash cow for Drunken Cloud Brothel. Thus, Wang Fugui felt that he had to entertain Li Yi well.
"Half meat, half veggie! Meat and vegetables were paired together to be nutritious and healthy.”
Li Yi said.
He couldn't be a vegetarian just to pretend to be a monk.
"But, little master, aren't monks vegetarian?”
Wang Fugui panted uneasily as he asked the question that the waiter had wanted to ask yesterday, but he did not dare to.
"I studied under the Great Thunderclap Temple in Huai 'an, Jiangnan. I cultivated with my master in the Great Thunderclap Temple, and my main focus was Zen. After my master passed away, I left the Great Thunderclap Temple and traveled around the Tang Empire and the countries of the Western Regions alone. I also practiced Tantra, which does not prohibit meat, so I also ate meat.”
Li Yi was spouting nonsense with a straight face.
"I see."
Wang Fugui was instantly filled with respect for Li Yi.
No wonder Li Yi was able to tell such a beautiful classic story like Journey to the West. It turned out that Li Yi had once traveled around the Great Tang and the countries of the Western Regions alone, and he had a wide range of knowledge.
In addition, he didn't expect that although the little master in front of him was young, he was an accomplished monk who cultivated both Zen and Tantra.
After breakfast, Li Yi went down to the second floor and realized that there were already 30 to 40 people waiting for him at the storytelling table.
These people were almost all familiar faces. Li Yi recognized all of them. Almost all of them had heard his story yesterday.
When they saw Li Yi coming down, they all stopped and looked at him at the same time.
"Little Master is here!"
"Little Master is here!"
"Little Master, have you had breakfast? If you haven't used it, I'll order it for you.”
"Little Master, quickly tell me the story of 'Journey to the West'. I really want to hear the story of the Monkey King going out to sea to find the immortals.”
"Lil Master, in order to listen to you talk about 'Journey to the West', I rushed to Drunken Night Inn before daybreak today.”
……
When they saw Li Yi appear, they immediately stood up and raised their hands to shout.
Li Yi was a little surprised. He didn't expect that his casual lecture on Journey to the West would be so popular in the Tang Dynasty.
There was actually someone who came to this Drunken Sky Restaurant to wait before dawn.
"I have already had breakfast. Thank you for your concern.”
Li Yi walked to the storytelling platform and cupped his hands to show his gratitude.
Then, he said to a waiter that Wang Fugui had specially sent to take care of him,""I went out last night and ordered my personal study table and gavel. They're all in my room. Go find someone to help me move them down and replace the old study table and gavel.”
As a different storyteller, he still had to be cool. He didn't want to use things that other storytellers had used.
Moreover, the study table and gavel in his room were high-grade goods given to him by the system.
"Alright."
As for the Divine Storyteller Set, it was actually a long white robe. It was similar to the White Lunar Monk Robe that Li Yi wore previously. Li Yi had already changed into it before he left the house, so ordinary people would not be able to tell.
"Am I going to walk further and further down the path of no return by acting as a monk?”
Li Yi observed the expressions of the audience around him and realized that no one had noticed that he had already changed out of his monk robes from yesterday. He immediately sighed in his heart.
Pa!
After the waiter changed Li Yi's rosewood and rosewood desk, Li Yi walked up to the storytelling table calmly and patted the rosewood.
"Today, we'll continue with the story of 'Journey to the West'. The Monkey King sailed out to sea in search of immortals. After drifting on the sea for countless days and nights, he finally saw land…”
As Li Yi spoke, Wang Fugui, the restaurant manager who was busy with the restaurant's business and greeting the customers, could not help but feel an itch in his heart. He came to the second floor.
However, when he saw that the guests around the storytelling table were once again in a daze, immersed in Li Yi's story and unable to extricate themselves, he did not even take a sip of the food and wine on the table.
Wang Fugui felt both happy and sad.
Wang Fugui was happy because from the moment Li Yi went on stage, there was a steady stream of customers entering Drunken Night Inn and going up to the second floor.
The guests who went upstairs either stood there or found an empty seat to sit down. Everyone was quietly listening to Li Yi's story. In less than 15 minutes, the entire second floor was filled with seats.
Wang Fugui was sad because these new customers did not turn into any corresponding economic benefits at all. Everyone was listening to Li Yi's storytelling, and none of the customers ordered anything.
Fortunately, Wang Fugui had already discussed this with Li Yi beforehand. Li Yi would only speak for an hour every time, and then he would rest for an hour before speaking.
This way, if the customers woke up from Li Yi's story and felt a little hungry and tired, they would definitely order some food and wine.
In this way, he used Li Yi to attract enough popularity and turned this popularity into practical benefits.
It had to be said that there was a reason why Wang Fugui could manage this restaurant, which he had taken over from his ancestors, to such a scale. It was one of the largest restaurants in Chang 'an.
Following that, Wang Fugui was once again immersed in Li Yi's story, unable to extricate himself.
