The 5 of them looked at each other. When they first came to Linate City, they all had their dreams. Some came for themselves, some for their families, so no one was willing to leave. This was the center of the human race, and they might only come here once in a lifetime.
"Master, I'm Mahler. I have something to tell you." Mahler looked at Bartoli anxiously and said.
"Don't be nervous, just say it." Bartoli vaguely knew that there must be something wrong with this shop changing hands so quickly. However, she believed that as an intermediate wizard, if she couldn't solve it, Abel behind her could.
"Master Johnny took over this shop 3 months ago. After the renovation, he realized that all the ingredients here had to be bought through the Food and Beverage Alliance. The price was very expensive, and he had to pay 30% of his income to the Food and Beverage Alliance every month. If he didn't, all the ingredients would be stopped. On top of that, although this shop had just opened, the business was not very good. Master Johnny had been losing money for 3 months in a row. He could no longer afford to pay these expenses, so he thought of selling the shop and leaving here." Mahler carefully explained the situation to Bartoli. He was worried that he would be punished for not telling her this before.
"Mahler, don't worry about that. We have our own source of ingredients. We don't need to worry about the Food and Beverage Alliance." Bartoli waved her hand and said without a care.
If it was a big organization like the Wizard Union, she might have thought about it, but she didn't care about this kind of business organization. They had different starting points and positions, so they had different ways of looking at problems. Maybe for Johnny and Mahler, the Food and Beverage Alliance was a big organization.
However, for Bartoli, just her identity as an intermediate wizard was enough to make the Food and Beverage Alliance think twice. Not to mention, she didn't need to buy ingredients from the Food and Beverage Alliance. All the ingredients would be sent to the city through the teleportation circle of the Blacksmith Union.
"Mahler, I'll let you be the manager. Introduce them to me first." Bartoli was very satisfied with Mahler. Mahler was able to think for his employer at the first moment. Just based on this, Mahler's character was reassuring. Moreover, with the contract, there was no need to worry about betrayal.
"Yes, sir, this is the chef Fink and Bartoli. They are brothers, and their cooking skills are very good. It's just that Sir Johnny doesn't seem to have grasped the taste of Liante City's residents, so this is one of the reasons for the poor business. This is the restaurant's attendants, Garen and Mickey." Mahler carefully introduced the two chefs and then introduced the attendants to Bartoli.
Bartoli didn't care how good the two chefs' cooking skills were. In her opinion, they weren't as good as her, so they had to learn from the beginning.
"Very good. This is the contract. Just put your hand on it!" Bartoli took out a contract made of exquisite animal skin from his space bag and placed it on the table.
This animal skin contract was not made of ordinary animal skin. It was made of the softest skin of an intermediate rank spiritual beast's abdomen. Bartoli used a spell pattern from the Dark World to enchant it with a mana contract.
The rights and obligations of both parties were written on the contract. This was an equal contract. It stated that Bartoli would provide the remuneration, and the five employees would have to keep the corresponding secrets outside of their normal work. Otherwise, they would be punished by the wizard.
When Mahler saw this very mysterious contract, he was stunned for a moment. He hesitated for a moment, but still pressed his handprint on it according to Bartoli's request. When the others saw that Mahler had already signed the contract, they stepped forward and pressed their handprints one by one.
When Mickey finally pressed his handprint on the contract, the contract was surrounded by a white light and slowly rose from the table. Then, the white light stretched out six rays of light and connected Bartoli and the five employees.
A magnificent voice sounded in the minds of the six people, "The contract is established!"
The five employees had never seen such a scene before. Their faces were pale. The power of the wizard made their hearts tremble. Everything that had just happened made them put away their little thoughts.
Abel didn't want to ask about what happened next. He rode Black Wind and headed to Blacksmith's Guild.
In front of the communication circle of Blacksmith's Guild, Abel activated the circle and waited for a response.
"Guru Abel, you're looking for me?" Bernie's voice came from the circle.
"Bernie, there's no one here. You don't have to call me that," Abel said with a smile.
"Abel, are you planning to open a restaurant? Why do you need me to deliver so many ingredients every day?" Bernie's voice was a lot more casual as he asked.
"Ahem!" Abel was a little speechless. A Grandmaster Blacksmith opening a restaurant was not something to be proud of.
"No way, you're really opening a restaurant?" Bernie's voice raised a lot. It seemed like he was shocked.
"Isn't it for credit points?" Abel said helplessly.
"What do you need? I can give it to you. Why do you need to open a restaurant just for credit points?" Bernie said generously.
"Ok, give me a magic tower on the sixth floor, a tower spirit, 3 large-sized protection circles, and 3 teleportation circles!" Abel said in a calm voice.
"Abel, these are all strategic resources. But if you want to build your magic tower in the Earth Dividing Basin, the Goff Family will pay for all the costs. We'll even give you the best stuff. What do you think?" As soon as Bernie heard the name of the item, he knew that Abel had become a rank 6 wizard and was busy building a magic tower.
However, he didn't know why he needed so many large-sized protection circles and teleportation circles. They were not cheap. Even an intermediate protection circle was not something a normal wizard could afford.
"That's not right, Abel. How long would it take for you to get enough credit points to open a restaurant?" Bernie was very curious about what kind of restaurant Abel was going to open. How could he have the confidence to trade for so many strategic resources?
"It's best if you don't come here after the opening. My food is addictive," Abel said with a half-truth.
"Look at you. You're so stingy before you even open." Bernie laughed.
"Later, I'll send a box of potions to Grand Duke Edwina in Angstrom City. Only you can do this for me." Abel added.
"Ok, no problem. I'll make a trip." Bernie knew that Abel was another master potion maker, so he was the only one who could do something like this.
"Oh right, I'll give you a barrel of master wine as a reward. If you don't want it, I'll save it." Abel said jokingly.
"No, of course I want master wine. I'll take as much as you have." Bernie yelled.
Master wine was no longer the same as before. Ever since Abel became a grandmaster, the value of master wine had increased once again. It had become a symbol of nobility among the dwarves.
Bernie had been buying and selling a lot of master wine, so he didn't even have much left. Every time he drank, he had to save as much as he could. Now that Abel had given him another barrel, he was in a hurry.
The Blacksmith's Guild teleportation circle was an internal teleportation circle. It was not connected to the outside world. It was only used between Blacksmith's Guilds in the Holy Continent. This was why the Blacksmith's Guild could build a teleportation circle in every large city. Otherwise, no city would agree to let the Blacksmith's Guild build a teleportation circle in their own city.
There was a Blacksmith's Guild in the Goff Family's Goff City. As long as you teleported something there, it was almost the same as teleporting to the Goff Family. Abel sent a box of potions and a barrel of master wine through the teleportation circle.
Abel's other identity was Master Bennett. As a master alchemist of the elves, in order to maintain his reputation and maintain a friendly relationship with Grand Duke Edwina, he would regularly send potions to Angstrom City to strengthen his position among the elves.
