AI bots can be unpredictable and the same chat responses might not work for everyone. Here are the response(s) that helped increase NPC relationship for me.
WHERE TO FIND: Stonewash Strand, Qinghe. At the stall by the road near the river
Note: Seems like a set script until “How could I betray that trust”? Doesn’t really matter what we say before that.

Zhu Bawan | Local Chef
No introduction available
Zhu Bawan holds firm to his own principles in cooking. Listening to his views might prove worthwhile. moshimushi.wordpress.com
ZBW: (rolling up sleeves) Wanderer, have you gathered all eight bowls? Without them, I cannot cook. And remember, I follow the Four Do-Nots. Would you like to hear my rules?
Me: Do speak
ZBW: (nodding) First Do-Not: I never cook beef, out of kindness. Oxen work the fields all their lives, and in the end, you kill them? I cannot bear such cruelty.
Me: And the second?
ZBW: (sighing) Second Do-Not: I never cook black fish, out of filial piety. After giving birth, the mother fish grows weak and blind. The baby fish sacrifice themselves to feed her. That’s filial piety.
Me: Alas
ZBW: (gazing at the sky) Third Do-Not: I never cook wild geese, out of fidelity. A wild goose mates for life. If one dies, the other remains alone forever. That loyalty moves me.
Me: And me
ZBW: (shaking head slowly) Fourth Do-Not: I never cook dog meat, out of loyalty. Dogs guard our homes faithfully, never abandoning their masters. How could I betray that trust?
Me: Agreed
ZBW: (nodding) Thank you, Wanderer. Now, have you gathered all eight bowls? Without a complete set, I cannot begin to cook.
Me: I will look for them
ZBW: (bowing slightly) I await your return, Wanderer. Remember, a complete set is essential. Safe travels.
Me: Thank you, I look forward to tasting the cuisine of a chef with principles like you
ZBW: (smiling apologetically) I have many rules, Wanderer. Please forgive my stubbornness. Once you bring me all eight bowls, I’ll show you the true art of Qinghe cuisine. moshimushi.wordpress.com
