Chapter 1042 Wow! Master Urien, I Love You!
“Boss, is it really okay to teach them how to roast chicken? Will they not steal our business?” Yabemiya asked concernedly.
“It’s fine. Isn’t teaching more people how to make delicious food an interesting thing to do?” Mag smiled and shook his head. “We can’t take all the business. Isn’t it great that the customers who can’t afford to eat roast chicken at our restaurant can go to their stall to eat their equally delicious but affordable roast chicken?”
Mag was very aware of this point. Furthermore, the two eateries belonged to two different categories. Mamy Restaurant was a high-end restaurant that had already priced out many blue-collar workers.
Mag wanted to earn money, and he also used the high-end ingredients provided by the system. He was totally at ease with his menu’s pricing. Delicacies made from the best ingredients deserved to be priced that high.
However, he didn’t mind letting more ordinary people have a chance to try tasty food, so he didn’t mind sharing with the orc brothers.
As for how much could they absorb, what kind of roast chicken could they make, it would be all up to them.
Mag was running a business too. It was impossible for him to teach them how to roast a chicken step by step.
After the ladies finished the beggar’s chicken, they stepped up to help to keep the utensils.
Everyone except Gina was collecting the shattered eggshells together carefully. She held them in her arms and looked at Mag pleadingly. “I… I want…”
“Are you still going to eat this mud casing, Gina?” Mag gazed at Gina. She already brought one eggshell upstairs as supper last night, and now she was still hugging one. Those who didn’t know them would think that he was abusing his staff. Or maybe she had pica?
“Mm-hm, nuh uh.” Gina nodded before shaking her head again. She pointed at her mouth and then waved. Then, she pointed upstairs and made a keeping gesture.
“You are going to keep them?” Mag felt even more peculiar. What kind of collectormania was this?
“Mm-hmm.” Gina nodded with a bright smile.
Mag couldn’t say no after seeing Gina’s bright smile. He could only nod helplessly, and said, “Then keep them.”
…
The effect of dominating the Delicious Cuisine Rankings was even more exaggerated at night. The line in front of Mamy Restaurant already folded three times in the square, and consisted of at least 700-800 people.
The roast chicken duel that afternoon had reversed the reviews of Mamy Restaurant. Some pedestrians had also begun to speak out for Mamy Restaurant.
“Deducting those who just come to have a look, we can only receive up to 400 customers tonight. Miya, please ask the customers lining up behind the 400th person to disperse. They won’t be able to get into the restaurant even if they stay.” Mag frowned as he looked at the snaking line outside. He actually didn’t quite like this crowded scene.
Majority of the customers who came today were only curious, but they deprived the regulars of their seats.
However, he couldn’t comment on that. The restaurant didn’t have a reservation system. The rule was first come first serve, so even a regular had to line up.
“Alright.” Yabemiya went out with a sign. After counting 400 people, she put up the sign next to the 400th customer, and started to persuade the customers behind to quit lining up.
“Is this that restaurant?”
“It has to be, or why else are there so many idiots lining up. Our king has said that this boss is a great cook, so we will kidnap him to cook for us every day.”
“Hey, the king’s idea is rather good.”
In a corner, two demons with bull heads whispered to each other as they looked toward Mamy Restaurant with excitement.
“However, there are so many people here, how can we act? The king told us to keep a low profile and not to create a hoo-ha.”
“Are you stupid? Of course we cannot act in front of so many people. We will spend a night here. There won’t be a single person here when we wake up. That will be the time that we take action.”
“Oh, yes. You are so clever, Dasha.”
The two bull-headed demons lowered their heads and fell asleep in the bushy corner.
…
“Today’s new product: beggar’s chicken”
Apart from the enlarged menu next to the restaurant’s entrance, there was also a little sign.
The news of Mag’s duel with the orc brothers that afternoon had already spread. The taste of beggar’s chicken was described as heavenly, and had piqued the curiosity of many.
“Beggar’s chicken? What kind of chicken is that? A chicken that is reared by a beggar?” Krassu sat and flipped through the menu for a while before he nodded, and said, “Interesting, I will have one of those.”
His appetite had become better since he began to eat at Mamy Restaurant. Even the meat products that he had given up previously became something he frequently ordered now.
At first, he was still worried that he wouldn’t be able to teach Amy for long, but now he was confident that he could train Amy to become the greatest close combat magic caster to ever live on the Norland Continent. He most likely wouldn’t die before that happened.
“I will have one too,” Urien said in his hoarse voice as he gazed at Krassu challengingly.
“This beggar’s chicken is super delish. However, that could be too much for the two of you. If my two masters can’t finish them, your precious disciple can always share the burden with you,” Amy said with her eyes blinking away as she came up. She looked just like a good disciple who was willing to share her masters’ burden.
“Alright, then Amy will help me eat half of it,” Krassu said with an indulgent smile.
“Master Krassu, you are so nice!” Amy said happily.
“Give me another one just for little Amy.” Urien raised up a finger cooly. He even ordered a beggar’s chicken with the attitude of a great master.
“Wow! Master Urien, I love you!” Little stars had lit up in Amy’s eyes.
Krassu glanced at Urien as he pursed his lips, and said, “Give me another 10 for Amy’s supper.”
“10… mmm… this is too blissful!” Amy clasped her hands with a blissful expression.
“This beggar’s chicken costs 1500 copper coins each… Do they play around with money?”
“What do you know? These two are the legendary great magic casters, the Lord of Ice and the Lord of Fire. What is buying 10 roast chickens to them as long as Little Boss is happy?”
“I am so envious… I also want to have a master like this! My master would only snatch my drumsticks from me!”
The customers looked at this scene enviously, and yet they were also worried at the same time that the two magic casters could buy up all the beggar’s chickens as they tried to outdo each other.
However, nobody dared to say a word. They were the legendary great magic casters! Would there be anyone who dared to snatch the roast chickens from them?
Mag saw that scene from the kitchen. He walked up, and helplessly said to Amy, “Amy, you have already eaten enough for tonight. No more food for you.”
“Alright.” Amy slouched her shoulders disappointedly. Then, she shook her head at Krassu and Urien. “Masters, you can treat me in the future.”
…
The night fell and the customers had left. The busy Mamy Restaurant was quiet again.
A cold breeze blew across, and a bull-headed person sneezed. He raised his head and gazed around his surroundings in a daze. Then, his eyes snapped fully open, and he kicked the other bull-headed person’s butt. “Ersha, wake up! It’s time to act!”
