Opening Prep

Before you open for business, here are some skills you'll need to become a Hotpot House master!

Choose the ingredients you need from the steamer and put them in the pot.

The correct temps and timing are key to achieving perfect taste and texture!

When the ingredients in the hotpot are cooked and float to the surface, scoop them out immediately with the hotpot ladle!

Pick up the hotpot ladle and give it a stir to make the ingredients cook faster!

Tip: When stirred, ingredients will retain their texture instead of quickly becoming stringy!

Pay attention to the customers' orders. Plate the dishes correctly and serve them to customers to complete orders!

All the excess, incorrect, or stringy ingredients are handed over to Momo. He's not complaining!

Prepping Tips

First step to making the Hotpot House successful: use the freshest ingredients in the Wanxiang Realm!

* [Wanxiang Coin] is the exclusive currency of the Wanxiang Realm. It can be earned by running the Hotpot House and used in various fun game modes.

At the grocery stall run by "Shi Laotao" in the Cai Ye Market, you can purchase the ingredients needed for running the Hotpot House with Wanxiang Coins.

Furthermore, Momo can help you clear "Flavor Frenzy" challenges and obtain delicious ingredients as rewards!

* As you progress further in Hotpot House management and "Flavor Frenzy" challenges, you'll unlock more tasty broths and ingredients!

Incredible moves, my little feline friend. Consider me impressed!

Hehe, told you I was a pro!

Establish Your Brand

Second step to making the Hotpot House successful: employ the most cutting-edge management strategies in Miraland!

An iconic brand is key to spreading the word about the Hotpot House throughout the Wanxiang Realm.

House specials! Set a signature dish to change the signature hotpot broth displayed in the shop and attract more diners who favor that specific flavor.

Raise the shop level to boost your earnings. It is no longer a distant dream to achieve universal praise!

* An in-development version of the game is shown here. Please refer to the actual in-game content.

In the Management Manual, you can see the profit bonus you can get when personally managing the Hotpot House.

Complete prerequisite random quests to unlock Server Earnings. Business at the Hotpot House goes on even when you're not around!

Hehe, once you set a signature hotpot broth, the look of every hotpot in the Hotpot House will also change. Don't forget to check them out, meow!

Of course, the ultimate key to the success of the Hotpot House is: The customer is always right!

The way to a customer's heart is through their stomach, which requires perfect service:

● Successfully complete an order by serving the customer the correct dish to boost their Affinity.

● Every customer's food preference will be recorded in their exclusive profile. Add in their favorite food as a bonus when serving them to greatly boost their Affinity.

After reaching full Affinity, a customer will become a regular at the Hotpot House and leave a unique favorable review for the shop.

On the "Dining Notes" page of the Management Manual, you'll be able to see messages and doodles left by regulars, as well as tokens of appreciation!

That warm and fuzzy feeling of receiving gifts from the customers is even better than eating hotpot!

Here Comes Fortune,

Knocking on Your Tiles—

Ease your worries with Mahjong! Endless fortune awaits—let the joy roll on! Don't just stand by—come play Mahjong at Jiuhua Pavilion! * After the Version 2.2 update, complete the random quest "Here Comes Fortune" to unlock Fortune Mahjong permanently.

Fortune Mahjong Class

Fortune Mahjong, a tabletop game from Linlang, was discovered in old Linlang books by the Chromafaces. It's now widely popular across the Wanxiang Realm. Here, distinct Wanxiang Realm tiles were carved for Fortune Mahjong, giving it three distinct rulesets, which are played with unique chips as stakes.

Fortune Jade is the chip used in Fortune Mahjong. It can be exchanged for Wanxiang Coins through the mahjong parlor manager Que Shiniang.

Duo Mahjong

Featuring only Dot, Stick, and utility tiles, this fast-paced and relaxed ruleset makes it easy to assemble a good hand. The best choice for fun, casual games!

Casual Mahjong

Featuring Dot, Stick, Character, and Honor base tiles, as well as Flower Tiles and utility tiles, this easy-to-learn, hard-to-master ruleset makes for skillful competition!

Thrilling Mahjong

Featuring only Dot, Stick, and Character base tiles, as well as utility tiles, this ruleset makes for brutal games that start with a Voided Suit Selection and end after all other players have declared Hu. This is war!

Ugh, my head. Whatever, I'll get it after two games, meow!

Tiles of Wonder

Of course, besides traditional mahjong, the Wanxiang Realm also has its own playstyle!

In Fortune Mahjong, some utility tiles have special effects such as random transformation, substituting/replacing specified suits, and more, adding unpredictability to every game.

As for how to make the most out of them, you'll have to figure it out yourselves, stylists!

Rumor has it: There are four Mahjong Sovereigns in the Wanxiang Realm, each with legendary skills. Among their secrets are exclusive skills that can be unleashed mid-game!

Nikki, time to show them who's the real Mahjong Master with a Styling Challenge!

These new abilities really add a lot to the game of mahjong... Huh? Out with Replacement Tile—

* Fortune Jade can be earned by playing "Fortune Mahjong" and be exchanged into Wanxiang Coins through Que Shiniang.

During Version 2.2, play Fortune Mahjong once to receive Diamonds for a limited time.

Tip: Not only can you play solo in Fortune Mahjong, but also invite friends to play together!

In the Wanxiang Realm, even a moment of leisure brings delight. Slow down and explore must-play experiences curated by Wanxiang News, including Chasing Echoes, Cloudborne Wanderings, and Fortune Chest!

* After the Version 2.2 update, progress through chapter one of the exclusive quest "Where Wanxiang Weaves Life" to permanently unlock the "Chasing Echoes" and "Cloudborne Wanderings" game modes. Progress through chapter two of the exclusive quest "Where Wanxiang Weaves Life" to permanently unlock the "Fortune Chest" game mode.

Chasing Echoes

The Wanxiang Records are exquisite objects used by the Chromafaces to record messages, coming in twelve basic designs. Due to the fascinating reactions during firing, some occasionally appear in rare variant colors beyond their original hues, with the radiant ones being especially prized by collectors.

Merchants have even been known to deliberately conceal the colors of Wanxiang Records to sell them as special editions. It's a practice that remains popular throughout the Wanxiang Realm today. When you obtain an unpolished Wanxiang Record, you can gently wipe its surface to reveal its true color, but the outcome depends entirely on luck!

Collecting a Radiant Wanxiang Record will also automatically unlock the corresponding Furniture Sketch! allowing you to craft furniture to decorate your home.

Unpolished Wanxiang Records can be purchased from Xuanyin at Echo Studio in the Wanxiang Realm using [Wanxiang Coins].

Many unpolished Wanxiang Records are hidden throughout the Wanxiang Realm, so everyone can experience the joy of collecting them. Keep an eye out during your explorations—you never know what surprises you might find!

These records hold the various messages left by the Chromafaces. Once collected, they can be displayed in the Hotpot House.

Browsing through everyone's messages after work makes all the fatigue melt away!

Fun Moments in Wanxiang!

Cloudborne Wanderings

The Mooncradle Float is a unique vehicle in the Wanxiang Realm, following a set route for sightseeing tours. Each Cai Ye and Jiuhua Pavilion has a designated stop. Visit the station supervisor and summon the Mooncradle Float to take in the endless beauty of the Wanxiang Realm along its route. And on your journey, you can also witness fireworks bursting in the sky.

"Colored flames soar skyward, a thousand blessings gather. Jade drifts gently, carrying a hundred fortunes."

Find the fireworks seller "Auntie Joy" in her shop "Happy Sparks" in Cai Ye to purchase the Wanxiang Realm specialty one-time use portable fireworks, which can be set off anywhere in Miraland. Light up the fireworks and let the Wanxiang beauty bloom!
