"City Lord, don't spout nonsense. Although the princess is good, you can't drink too much," Meg quickly said seriously.
God knew that even the service staff he picked up was a princess. There were even some who came from the heavens, and some who weren't princesses at first, but became princesses later on …
He couldn't count them in detail. He couldn't count them anymore.
Meg then chatted with Michael and the rest about the construction of the railway to Vic Mountain. The first phase of the 200-kilometer railway had been completed, and connected Chaos City to Tatari, an important town in the south of the goblins. The construction and debugging of the locomotive were also basically completed. He planned to invite Meg to the base for the final trial run to ensure that it could enter the trial run stage as soon as possible.
After the conversation ended, Meg bade farewell and prepared to leave. Michael went out with Meg, and curiously asked, "Mr Mak, you've been out collecting materials for so many days. What new product are you preparing to launch today?"
"Crayfish," Meg replied with a smile.
"Sounds like a pretty good seafood," Michael said with a smile.
"Yes. I've put in a lot of effort to get this crayfish." Meg nodded in agreement. Perhaps the chaos on the Demon Islands this time could be renamed as "The War of the Crayfish".
"I must go and try it when I have time," Michael said in advance.
"Anytime." Meg nodded with a smile.
Meg left the Gray Temple's side door with the wooden box. He only flagged down a horse-drawn carriage when he reached the street next door. This long conversation lasted for two hours. He had to rush back to the restaurant to prepare for the lunch service.
The horse-drawn carriage turned into the long street. Meg was about to put down the curtains when he suddenly noticed Raina, who was supporting an old lady by the side of the street. He quickly got the coachman to stop the carriage by the side.
"Raina," Meg called out to Raina as he lifted the curtains.
Raina looked around before noticing Meg, who was sitting in the carriage. Her eyes lit up, and she asked, "Boss, why are you here?"
"I came out to do something and happened to see you." Meg said with a smile, and then his eyes fell on the old lady, or rather, a middle-aged woman, who was supported by Raina. However, because she was very thin, her hair was half white, and she wore a cotton coat full of patches. Her hunched figure made her look like an old woman in her twilight years. Her face was sickly pale, and her appearance was somewhat similar to Raina. He quickly said, "Hello, you must be Raina's mother."
"Mother, this is my boss, Mr. Meg." Raina hurriedly introduced.
"Hello, Mr. Meg. Thank you very much for taking care of Raina. She often talks about you." Karins looked at Meg with a gentle smile. Although the smile was a little difficult, it still made people feel warm.
"Raina is a very good employee. Her ability is very good and outstanding. I should thank you for cultivating such an excellent daughter." Meg said modestly, and then said, "Do you live nearby?"
"No, we live in the north of the city. Today, I brought my mother to see a doctor. Now, I am going to send her home, and then I will immediately rush to the restaurant." Raina shook her head and said apologetically, "I may be late … but I will try my best to run over."
"Raina, you don't have to send me. I can walk back slowly. You should hurry to work. Don't delay the restaurant's business." Karins let go of Raina's hand and said somewhat sternly.
"But mother, your body …" Raina looked at Karins with a worried face.
"The doctor said there is no big problem. You can go to work without worry." Karins interrupted Raina's words with a firm tone.
"Actually … I am not here to urge you to go to work …" Meg was a little flustered in his heart. Why did he suddenly feel that he had become an unscrupulous boss? However, poverty did not make Raina bad. It was probably because of such a family education.
"Madam, get in the car. I will send you home." Meg got out of the car and looked at Karins with a smile.
"How can this be? Mr. Meg is so busy. You can't waste time on a useless person like me." Karins quickly shook her head.
"If I don't send you home, Raina will definitely be very worried about you. Then, you can't work well." Meg looked at Karins with a smile and said softly, "The carriage will send you home soon. We will go to the restaurant together. It won't take much time."
"Boss …" Raina looked at Meg. Her eyes were slightly red.
"This …" Karins looked at Raina and then looked at Meg. She was a little hesitant.
"Madam, get in the car. It is rare to meet such a kind boss." The coachman had already helped to move the wooden ladder down and said with a smile.
"Then, I will trouble you." Karins was afraid that she would waste Meg's time if she continued to delay. She thanked him and slowly got into the carriage with Raina's help.
Meg also climbed into the carriage again. He put down the curtain and immediately isolated the cold air outside.
"Raina, tell the coachman the address." Meg said to Raina.
"Okay." Raina nodded. She lifted the curtain and told the coachman the address. The carriage then turned around and headed to the north of the city.
"I am really sorry for the trouble." Karins looked at Meg sitting opposite her. She was still a little embarrassed.
"You are an elder. This small matter is what I should do. If I knew that Raina would accompany you to see a doctor today, I definitely wouldn't let her come to work today. "Meg hurriedly comforted her. He did blame himself for the negligence of his employee's life.
Karins still wanted to say something. Suddenly, she covered her mouth with a handkerchief and coughed violently.
Raina quickly stroked Karins's back. Her eyes were full of worry.
Mag looked at Clarince, who was coughing so hard that her face was red. It seemed that she was in great pain every time she coughed. His brows furrowed slightly. It seemed like Clarince's condition wasn't as simple as she had said.
After a while, Karins stopped coughing. Meg still saw a trace of blood on the handkerchief in her hand.
"I am sorry to let you sit in the same carriage as me." Karins looked at Meg apologetically. She didn't know where to put her hands because of nervousness.
"Your words make me a little scared. You are Raina's mother, which means you are my elder. I hope I didn't burden you." Meg said apologetically.
Karins looked at Meg and smiled. "You are a true gentleman. I am very happy that Raina can meet a boss like you."
The carriage stopped, and Meg and Raina helped Karins out of the carriage. Meg's heart sank when he saw the shabby and leaky building in the slums. For a patient, living in such a place would make her condition worse.
Furthermore, the restaurant was almost across the entire Chaos City. It was hard to imagine how long Raina had to walk to the restaurant every morning and walk back here alone after she finished her morning work.
Although Chaos City was safe, the slums at night were still very dangerous for a young girl.
"Raina, you and your mother can move to the staff dormitory. I have prepared a dormitory for you," Meg said to Raina, who was sitting opposite him, on the carriage.
