Clara nodded in agreement. After all, she was now a member of Luffy Corporation, so she had to take her work seriously.
"Huang Quan, how about just the two of us go to Mount Luofu for fun tomorrow?"
Furibas and Yomi aren't exactly Luffy's employees, so there's no need for them to cause trouble.
Since both I and Huang Quan have things to do tomorrow, why not invite Huang Quan to go shopping in Luofu together?
To make up for the regret of Luffy and Yomi going on their date today without me.
Luffy had no objection to this, but he still reminded Furibas.
"Remember to be careful, and if you cause any trouble, don't say my name!"
Do you think I'm the kind of person who would cause trouble for no reason?
"Yes I do!"
Luffy answered without hesitation.
If Huang Quan weren't so directionally challenged that he couldn't even take care of himself, Luffy wouldn't have had to tell Furibas to do so.
However, with Huang Quan around, there shouldn't be any danger.
"Oh, and remember to keep a close eye on Huang Quan, don't let her get lost!"
Huang Quan "..."
Volume 1: Chapter 176 Golden Man Alley
"finally reached!"
After disembarking from the Star Chariot, looking at the Golden Man Alley in front of him, Luffy couldn't help but stretch.
Seele and Clara, who also got off, nodded in agreement.
This place is really remote. The three of them originally planned to walk here, but they found that it was indeed quite far.
Left with no other option, I hailed a taxi.
Upon entering Jinren Alley, a classic and antique atmosphere immediately greets you.
High emotional intelligence, with a classic and elegant style.
Low emotional intelligence, dilapidated.
However, this was no problem for Luffy at all.
Everything will be alright once Little Gray arrives!
"Boss, are we really going to open a shop here?"
Looking at the almost deserted Golden Man Alley, Seele cautiously asked Luffy a question.
After all, this place didn't seem like a place where money could be made, and Seele was afraid that once the shop opened, no one would know about it.
"What's there to be afraid of? It's free anyway!"
Luffy said nonchalantly.
I got it from the Medicine King's secret recipe with no money, so why not take it?
Even the initial million, Luffy managed to find a way to get back.
Moreover, this morning I heard from Fulibas that because she was credited with reporting the secrets of the Medicine King, the Immortal Boat would give her some rewards later.
This is a huge win!
"By the way, it's almost noon now, how about we go grab something to eat?"
Although the group set off early in the morning, Jinren Alley was so remote that they didn't arrive until almost noon.
Since that's the case, let's just have lunch here first.
"no problem!"
"Clara will listen to her big brother too!"
Seele and Clara naturally agreed.
Fortunately, although Jinren Lane is cheap, it has almost everything you could want in terms of shops.
There are naturally many restaurants and street stalls.
Moreover, it was almost noon, so even though they had just entered Jinren Alley, they could smell a rich aroma of food.
This caused the roundworms in several people to be unearthed.
They had already decided where to eat Luffy.
There happened to be a food stall not far away, so Luffy simply decided to set up shop there.
"Boss, what good food do you have here?"
Arriving at the stall, Luffy asked the stall owner, who was trying to sell him alcohol.
"Are they tourists? The menu is right there, they have everything you want to eat!"
The stall owner seemed somewhat surprised to see Luffy and his two companions.
After all, apart from some regular customers, there are hardly any tourists who come to her stall to eat.
The stall owner looked at Luffy and his two companions as if they were rare creatures.
The stall owner was pointing to a signboard with various menus written in Xianzhou script.
"Hmm, then I'll have a plate of spicy minced beef offal and some lotus root rolls..."
Luffy ordered quite a lot of food in one go.
"That's enough, we can't eat any more!"
When Seele saw Luffy order a bunch of things, she immediately stopped him.
Although there are three people on their side, Clara is still young, and Seele is also a daughter.
The two of them couldn't eat much either.
Luffy ordered so much food that it's easy for him to not be able to finish it all.
"That's all!"
At this moment, Luffy also realized what was happening.
After all, Fulibas always accompanied her, so whatever she ordered would eventually end up in her stomach, and there was no need to worry about not being able to finish it.
"Alright, you seem to have a good eye for food, as you've mostly ordered our signature dishes from Luofu!"
After all, Luffy lived in a place with a culture similar to that of the Immortal Boat in his previous life, so he naturally knew what to expect.
Of course, Luffy didn't intend to tell anyone else this.
"After all, we've been on the Immortal Ship for several days now, so naturally we know what's good to eat!"
Luffy replied to the stall owner.
"Okay, please wait a moment, I'll make it for you right away!"
Seeing that Luffy had ordered the dishes, the stall owner immediately started cooking, heating the oil in a wok.
Luffy and his two companions found an empty table, sat down, and waited quietly.
A little while later, all the dishes that Luffy had ordered were served.
Looking at the table full of delicious food, the people's throats couldn't help but move slightly.
In addition, it was almost noon, and the group was already quite hungry.
Then he started eating heartily.
The group ate for more than half an hour, finishing off all the food on the table.
After finishing their meal, the two sat down and savored the taste of the dishes.
It must be said that although it is a small stall, the stall owner's skill level is quite good.
The dishes on the table were mostly delicious.
"Clara, how is it? Still spicy?"
At this moment, Luffy asked Clara.
Clara had originally wanted to try the spicy chopped beef offal dish while eating.
As a result, I accidentally put a piece of chili pepper in my mouth, thinking it was a side dish.
Clara was immediately overwhelmed by the spiciness.
Meanwhile, Clara was drinking the hot goat milk that Luffy had bought for her; the sweet goat milk diluted the spiciness in Clara's mouth.
Perhaps Clara was drinking too quickly, because some milk slowly dripped from the corner of her mouth.
Because of the spiciness, Clara's eyes became teary at this moment.
It has to be said, they are exceptionally cute.
Loli lovers rejoice!
Clara responded to Luffy's concern.
"Clara is alright!"
Seeing that Clara was alright, Luffy breathed a sigh of relief.
The three of them then sat and rested for a while before going to the stall owner to pay their bill.
After paying the stall owner for the meal, Ruf asked a question.
"By the way, boss, we came to Jinren Alley to find a place. Do you know which way to go?"
As he spoke, Luffy revealed the shop address he had obtained from the Medicine King's Secret Manual.
Having lived in Jinren Lane for many years, the stall owner naturally recognized every corner of the lane.
However, after hearing the place Luffy mentioned, the stall owner's expression became somewhat strange for some reason.
"Young man, where are you going and what are you doing?"
"I've bought those places, and I plan to convert them into shops in a while, so I came to take a look today!"
"You're going to open a shop in Jinren Alley?"
Upon hearing this, the stall owner's gaze towards Luffy became strange.
After all, apart from some old shops, there are basically no new shops in Jinren Lane now.
Upon hearing Luffy say he wanted to open a shop here, the stall owner's first thought was whether Luffy had something wrong with his head.
However, considering that they would eventually become part of Jinren Alley, the stall owner leaned closer and whispered.
"Young man, don't think I'm lying to you, I advise you to sell these shops as soon as possible!"
"why?"
"I'm puzzled," Ruff asked.
"Let me tell you the truth, actually recently, some people in those places you mentioned have seen ghosts!"
Upon hearing this, Luffy was taken aback.
Is this haunted?

Volume 1: Chapter 177 The Haunted House
Although the stall owner said there were ghosts over there, Luffy didn't care.
After getting the exact location from the stall owner, Luffy led Seele and Clara to the location of those shops.
When they arrived at the location the stall owner had described, the scene before them immediately surprised Luffy.
All around were rings of dilapidated houses, broken windows, and leaky walls.
Luffy even saw some small creatures, special to the Immortal Ship, crawling across the ground.
