Chapter 2250: Not 5888!
The construction of Hope School was something everyone followed closely. After all, Mag was a very important investor and Amy was also very concerned about it.
Therefore, everyone put a lot of heart into Hope School. Hence, the news of Hope School being built and on top of that, Mag being a part-time teacher there, made everyone even happier.
“In that case, can I be a part-time magic tutor as well? I am pretty good at spatial magic,” Babla asked Mag as she put down the skewer in her hand. She was eager to be a teacher.
Mag looked at her for a while and said with a nod, “I think you have what it takes to be a teacher.”
Babla was overjoyed. She sat up straight and stuck out her rather flat chest.
“What about me? I can teach the children how to sing,” Gina said as she raised her hand. She loved children and it would be fabulous if she could become a teacher.
“This is a really good idea.” Mag nodded. Gina had already mastered the common tongue and although she still had a little bit of an accent, she could articulate her words very well and the accent was not an issue.
Besides, she was a really good singer. She had the voice of a mermaid after all and would be a good fit as a music teacher.
“Boss, I can be your assistant when you teach,” Rena said with a smile.
“That’s a good idea too.” Mag nodded. He did not have much experience dealing with so many children at the same time, so it would naturally be better to have an assistant.
…
Everyone chimed in, displaying their passion to take on the glorious role of Hope School’s teachers.
Mag clearly turned down Angela’s suggestion to teach the children how to charm. After that, he told everyone, “I do not have the last say in this. If you really want to be a part-time teacher at Hope School, I can bring you down one day to see Teacher Luna. She has the final say.”
During the afternoon break, Mag shut himself in the study room to devise a design for the training center’s building.
It might be called a training center, but it could actually be considered a holistic education building.
Mag’s vision was a four-story building. The first floor would be a kitchen that came with a store room that was big enough to have 100 people learning and practicing cooking at the same time....
The second floor would be a more comprehensive hall split into various classrooms that would allow students to be split into various culinary styles to specialize in afterwards.
The third floor would be temporarily made into a recipe hall where various recipes would be stored. Only those who were good… those who were eager to learn, would obtain the right to gain a recipe of their specialty.
As for the fourth floor, it would be the teachers’ office.
With the help of the System, Mag completed his design. After that, he went to the city’s northside and quickly arranged for the Night Elves’ construction team to start work in the school.
When the teachers saw construction work happening at the barricaded empty plot of land beside the canteen, a discussion started.
After all, they just received a notice yesterday saying that the construction works in the school had been completed. Why was there a new construction team coming into the school again today? On top of that, they were a team consisting only of elves.
“The construction work will happen across five days and all barricades will be torn down, at the latest, by the night of the eve of the school’s opening. It will not affect the school’s opening.” Mag promised Luna in her office.
“Is time too tight?” Luna asked.
“It’s not an issue. They are professionals and this timeline that I gave you is inclusive of a buffer time.” Mag waved his hands with a smile. He was very confident in this construction team from the Night Elves.
The construction team went into the school and completed all the handover work. Mag held a meeting with some of the elven engineers to finalize the plan and some details. The construction materials were brought in and the construction work started immediately.
There were four stories to build and time was tight. On top of that, Mag had a lot of requests so they had to work for three days straight.
“System, I am intending to custom-make some kitchenware. Do you want to take on this business?” Mag said to himself as he pushed his bicycle out from the campus.
“As a God of Cookery Cultivation System, I only cultivate the God of Cookery. I do not do business,” the System said proudly.
“What a pity. It would be more than 100 sets of kitchenware and furniture. I guess I’ll have to trouble myself to go around Chaos City. After all, I can buy anything I want in Chaos City,” Mag said slowly as he rode towards the blacksmith in the distance.
“Host, why don’t we discuss it again?”
“Discuss? What’s there to discuss? I am very glad that you are such a system with principles. After all, there aren’t many like you. I have to treasure that.” Mag stopped his bicycle in front of the blacksmith shop, put down the bicycle kickstand, and walked into the shop.
“As a God of Cookery System, I am a professional in making kitchenware!” the System said seriously.
“Boss, how much does it cost to custom-make a set of kitchenware?” Mag asked the dwarf blacksmith who was leaning by the fireplace.
“It would depend on which set you want.” The blacksmith put down the erotic novel in his hands and stuffed it under his seat cushion as he looked up at Mag.
“What sets do you have?” Mag asked with a smile.
The blacksmith named the sets as he straightened each finger.
“Set one: Three-piece pot set, three-piece knife set, one stove, 800 copper coins.
“Set two: five-piece pot set, five-piece knife set, one stove, one gas stove, 2800 copper coins.
“Set three: eight-piece pot set, 12-piece knife set, one stove, one gas stove, one kitchen counter, one sink counter, 5888 copper coins.”
“What are the details of the pieces in your sets?” Mag asked.
“This way, Sir.” The blacksmith stood up and stuffed the novel, from under the cushion, under his shirt as he brought Mag over to a display set.
There were various kinds of pots and knives on display. It was a very comprehensive and professional set of kitchenware.
It was all equipment that a chef in a restaurant would use in various scenarios.
Mag looked at the display set. The quality was so-so but it was sufficient for learning.
“If it’s 100 sets, it would only cost 588,800 copper coins. That isn’t very expensive,” Mag thought to himself.
“Expensive! It is very expensive! How could someone put such an expensive price on such kitchenware of such sub-par quality! What an unscrupulous businessman!
“This cleaver might not even be able to cut through a normal wild boar’s bones, much less a magic beast!
“Also, the thickness of that pot’s base is not even enough. If you use that pot, the food will not heat up equally and you will not be able to create the perfect dish!
“Host, as a teacher, how could you let your students use kitchenware of such quality? You’re poisoning the saplings of the country and wasting their youth!” the System said agitatedly.
“Really? I thought it was pretty good. Mainly, the price is acceptable,” Mag replied calmly.
“Not 5888! Just 5688, and you can bring home a perfect opulent set!”
The system brought out an opulent set menu.
It included a three-piece knife set, three-piece pot set, one stove, and one kitchen counter.
The quality appeared to not be any worse than the blacksmith’s set three but it made Mag smile.
Mag was actually not very interested in too many fancy things. Be it pots or knives, it was not the more the merrier. He only needed enough.
“Isn’t this equivalent to his set one? That’s only 800,” Mag said.
