Just as manager Mahler was concentrating on his accounting with a smile on his face, a middle-aged man in a luxurious robe walked in. He had a spatula badge on his chest. It was very strange, but this middle-aged man seemed to be very proud of his badge. It felt like he was purposely pushing his chest forward as he walked.
"What can I do for you?" Manager Mahler stopped his accounting and asked the middle-aged man in the luxurious robe in front of him.
Normally, people who came here to eat would find a place to sit down. Even if they didn't have a seat, they would wait at the waiting area for a while. However, this man directly walked in front of the counter.
"I am Director Bayard from the Food and Beverage Alliance. Your restaurant has passed the inspection and is fortunate enough to become a member of the Food and Beverage Alliance. Please inform your owner to come here immediately to complete the procedures to join the Food and Beverage Alliance!" Director Bayard said arrogantly as he looked at manager Mahler.
He knew manager Mahler. He was the one who had helped the restaurant join the Food and Beverage Alliance. He knew how timid manager Mahler was, so he was very confident in this mission.
"Director Bayard, I'm afraid you've made a mistake. Our restaurant has never ordered ingredients from the Food and Beverage Alliance. Our owner will not join the Food and Beverage Alliance!" Manager Mahler said with a smile.
When he was working for the previous owner, Johnny, he already knew how shady the Food and Beverage Alliance was. Normal restaurants could only buy ingredients from the Food and Beverage Alliance, so they had no choice but to join this organization. However, after joining, all kinds of fees would follow. If the restaurant was making money, it would be fine. If the business wasn't good, then the restaurant's credit points would be sucked dry and they would have to close down.
"Manager Mahler, I advise you to inform your owner to hand in 30% of your income every month to become a member of the Food and Beverage Alliance. Otherwise, our Food and Beverage Alliance will not be able to protect your small restaurant!" Director Bayard's eyes carried a hint of threat as he spoke unhurriedly to Mahler.
"Our current owner is an intermediate wizard. She is not the old Mr. Johnny who you can bully as you please!" Manager Mahler knew his owner Bartoli was an intermediate wizard, so he was very confident.
"Intermediate Wizard? What is an intermediate Wizard in front of our Head Manager Fowley!" Said Bayard indifferently as he curled his lips.
At this moment, a powerful aura was aroused from the hall, and an old voice was heard, "I am Acheson Wizard. I have just been promoted to an intermediate wizard. I want to see the head of welfare who doesn't put intermediate wizards in his eyes!"
Ever since Wizard Acheson became an intermediate wizard in the Forgotten Land, he had treated this place as his own kitchen. He would come here every day to taste a few dishes. This was his way of thanking this restaurant. On the other hand, the dishes here were just too delicious. After becoming an intermediate wizard, his salary had increased by a lot, so he could afford to eat here.
Just now, he accidentally heard that there was someone who dared to cause trouble for the Forgotten Land and didn't even put intermediate wizards in their eyes. He immediately exploded.
"Sir Magus, that's not what I meant!" Bayard didn't expect there to be an intermediate wizard in this restaurant. Although there were many intermediate wizards in the city, they rarely appeared in public places outside the circle. At this moment, his body began to tremble. All kinds of legends about wizards dealing with their enemies appeared in his mind, so he quickly explained in a sad voice.
"Get out of this Forgotten Land. Next time I see you here, I will turn you into an idiot!" Wizard Acheson increased his aura. Although the aura of a wizard didn't do much damage, it still made Bayard, who was already scared, even more scared.
Director Bayard took a step back and sat down on the ground. When he saw Wizard Acheson take a step forward, he quickly rolled and crawled out of the shop, leaving behind Wizard Acheson's loud laughter.
"Thank you, Sir Acheson. I will ask the kitchen to add another dish for you!" Manager Mahler quickly bowed to Wizard Acheson, who had helped him out.
"No need to thank me. Adding another dish is a good idea, a good idea!" Wizard Acheson happily sat back in his seat.
Manager Mahler let out a long sigh of relief when he saw the Food and Beverage Alliance's director was scared away. If Bayard kept bothering him, he could only call manager Bartoli through his identity card. However, he didn't want to disturb the owner Bartoli. That would make him look like a useless manager.
In the villa of Head Manager Foley, Bayard was crying to him about his experience of being kicked out of the Forgotten Land. Of course, in order to reduce his responsibility, Bayard beautified his story as a humble visitor, and the intermediate wizard who stopped him was a hired thug from the Forgotten Land.
"Since they don't know what's good for them, then let's teach them a lesson!" Head Manager Foley was very good at dealing with these restaurants. Because of the special feature of Liante City, mana waves would trigger the defensive circle. As long as a Knight didn't use combat qi, the defensive circle wouldn't be triggered. As long as he moved fast enough, there wouldn't be a problem.
"Mr. Head Manager is decisive!" Bayard was very excited. He could finally vent his anger.
In the afternoon, manager Mahler saw a few Knights with the Food and Beverage Alliance's badge on their chest come to the door and take a look. It seemed like they were scared by the wizards in the room, and they didn't dare to come in. The few Knights came aggressively, but they quickly left.
At that moment, manager Mahler realized that the Food and Beverage Alliance was not easy to solve. At least, he couldn't solve it, so he opened his identity card.
Soon, Bartoli appeared in front of the counter of the Forgotten Land.
"Mr., this Food and Beverage Alliance is the biggest Food and Beverage Alliance in Liante City. All the restaurants in the city are members of the Food and Beverage Alliance. It's said that the power behind them is very powerful, so you must be careful." Manager Mahler explained to Bartoli.
"Let me know when they come to talk. I want to see what the Food and Beverage Alliance is going to do!" Bartoli knew this restaurant was just to earn some points. She also knew some of the unspoken rules of the industry. If the other party didn't go too far, they could still talk.
"Yes, Mr. Mahler!" Manager Mahler bowed.
The next morning, when manager Mahler opened the door as usual, he found that the outside of the restaurant was covered in blood. The door was also blood-red.
After receiving the news from manager Mahler, Bartoli rushed over. She looked at the blood on the outside wall with a gloomy face. The anger in her heart had already accumulated because the scene here reminded her of those very unpleasant days.
A flame was burning in her heart. A huge wall of fire appeared in her hand, wrapping the entire outside wall and the door in it.
Although she was extremely angry, her control over the fire element was unparalleled in the world. The huge wall of fire was powerful enough to burn down the entire restaurant, but it just burned the blood on the ground and walls and automatically dissipated.
This kind of control was seen by the red-robed law enforcement wizards who received the intermediate alarm of the city's defense circle and directly teleported to the scene of the incident through the circle. They were shocked.
At the same time, the red-robed law enforcement wizards also knew what had happened. The purpose of this despicable method was to annoy the owner of the restaurant and make him agree to the conditions.
"Wizard Bartoli, you used an intermediate spell without permission. Although you didn't hurt anyone, according to the law, I will deduct 1000 points from you as a punishment. Do you agree?" The red-robed law enforcement wizard said to Bartoli in a serious tone.
"I agree, but I hope you can also catch the person who did this!" 1000 points was not a small number for other wizards, but for Bartoli and Abel, it was nothing. However, the person who did this could not get away with it.
"Wizard Bartoli, do you know who you have a grudge with?" The red-robed law enforcement wizard opened the magic circle control card that he always carried with him and connected to the city spirit. His questions would be recorded and become part of the city spirit's judgment.
"Only the Food and Beverage Alliance. I was waiting for them to come and talk, but they did this!" Bartoli said with hatred.
