"This … this is our restaurant?" Hannah stood outside the restaurant and looked at the exquisite and luxurious restaurant in front of her in disbelief. The sun shone on the floor-to-ceiling glass, and the signboard shone brightly. Even the Falk Tribe's palace was not as beautiful as this.
"Yes. This is Amy's." Mia nodded. She took out the key that Meg had given her, and went forward to open the door.
"Is Mr. Mak back?!" Harrison's horse-drawn carriage had just stopped, and he jumped down excitedly when he saw everyone opening the door. He went forward, and asked, "Is the restaurant open for business today?"
Yabemiya turned to look at Harrison, and shook her head with a smile as she said, "I'm sorry, sir. We just came back, and need to prepare the ingredients and open for business. We can't open for business today. You can come back at night."
"I see." Harrison and a few customers who happened to walk over were a little disappointed when they heard that.
"Big Sister Mia, we should be having hot pot tonight, right?" Vanessa went forward and asked Mia expectantly.
"Mm-hm, we will." Mia nodded. On the way here, Meg had already confirmed that the restaurant would be open for business tonight.
"That's great." Vanessa smiled widely. She had been to all the big restaurants in Chaos City these few days, and had tried some unique food, but she still felt that the taste was lacking.
"Amy, your master wants you to go to class this afternoon," Xixi said to Amy, who was about to enter, as she poked her head out from the pharmacy next door.
"Ah … Is my wonderful holiday over?" Amy sighed aggrievedly. She nodded at Xixi, and said, "Big Sister Xixi, I will come over after lunch."
"Alright," Xixi replied with a smile, and retracted her head.
"Are Big Sister Phyllis and Big Sister Raina not at home?" Amy asked doubtfully as she walked into the restaurant with Ugly Duckling in her arms.
"Maybe she's busy. Phyllis is in charge of the Night Elves' food, and Raina should be busy with the new hot pot restaurant," Mia said with a smile as she brought warm water out of the kitchen for everyone.
Hannah looked around the restaurant curiously, and finally stopped in front of the mural. She saw the Twilight Forest, and also the Falk Tribe that was marked as a small dot. She couldn't help but exclaim, "Is this a map of the Norland Continent? Is the entire continent here? "
"No, these are just some of the places." Elizabeth shook her head.
"Oh …" Hannah stuck out her tongue, feeling a little embarrassed for her ignorance. However, her eyes were quickly attracted by the clock on the wall. She quickly walked forward and stared at the second hand that was beating at a fixed frequency, as well as the minute and hour hands that were crawling at a slow speed. After a while, she said excitedly, "This must be the legendary clock! Using a magic formation to make the needle rotate at a fixed frequency, thus achieving the effect of timing! I can't believe there's something so advanced here! "
"Big Sister Hannah, is a clock so advanced?" Amy asked doubtfully.
"Of course. In order to make the needle move stably, such a small clock must have very high precision components. A slight difference could cause the clock to lose its accuracy completely." Hannah nodded as she stared at the clock as if she was looking at an exquisite piece of art.
"Then, what about my watch?" Amy raised her little hand, and revealed the delicate watch with a purple diamond on her wrist.
"This …" Hannah stared at Amy's watch, and confirmed that the tiny needle was indeed moving, and the frequency was exactly the same as the clock on the wall. She couldn't help but exclaim, "Clocks can already be made so small? How intricate are the components inside! "
She had only seen clocks once in the chief's palace. At that time, she thought it was already an existence of extremely high precision. However, it was hard to imagine what kind of master could make a watch that could be worn on the wrist.
"Father gave this to me." Amy withdrew her little hand with a smile, and felt a little proud.
Could it be that he's also a powerful mechanic? Hannah thought doubtfully. To her, machinery was more interesting than brewing wine. The process of designing and building a brewing machine was also more interesting than brewing wine.
As long as she touched cold steel, her heart would beat faster at the thought of being able to turn it into anything she wanted in her hands.
If Meg was a very powerful mechanic who could make such a small and exquisite watch, then she would have found a powerful master.
…
Meg didn't stay in the Gray Temple for too long. He had a simple conversation with Rolan about the black fog and the Great Old Ones, and agreed on a time to discuss this matter with Castellan Michael.
As for the stone statue, Meg put it away. This thing was a little evil. Even if it was left with Rolan, Meg was still a little worried. After all, he didn't have the Holy Light shining on it all the time.
After leaving the Gray Temple, Meg hailed a carriage to return to the restaurant.
When they passed by that teahouse called "Ben", Meg lifted the curtain to take a look, and was surprised. The teahouse that was closed down was actually reopened.
What's going on? Meg frowned. Given Bennett's crimes, a prison sentence was considered a light punishment. This teahouse was his core asset, so it shouldn't be dealt with so quickly. Then, why was it reopened so quickly?
The carriage continued to move forward, and Meg soon saw the hot pot restaurant that was given to Raina. There were two orcs leaning against the door, and they were chatting while stamping their feet.
Are these the employees that Raina hired? Meg glanced at the two orcs who didn't look very friendly. They had gone to the Falk Tribe these few days, and Raina should be busy with the renovation and opening of the restaurant. However, from the looks of it, the hot pot restaurant's finishing work hadn't been completed, and there was no construction team working on it, which made him a little puzzled.
Meg planned to let Raina handle the new hot pot restaurant, and he would be a quiet investor, so he didn't ask Raina to report the progress to him. He didn't know much about the project.
When the carriage was about to reach Amy's, Meg saw two young ladies walking side by side in front. He asked the coachman to stop, paid the fare, and jumped off the carriage. "Raina, Phyllis."
"Boss?" Raina and Phyllis turned around at the same time, and their eyes lit up when they saw Meg. They exclaimed in surprise, "You're back!"
"Yes, we just came back in the afternoon. They should be in the restaurant now." Meg walked forward with a smile, and his gaze landed on Raina's left hand, which was wrapped in a bandage. He concernedly asked, "Raina, what happened to your hand?"
"I accidentally scalded myself when I was cooking. It's not a big deal." Raina quickly hid her hand behind her back, and shook her head.
"It's not like that, Boss. Raina's hand was scratched when those bad orcs pushed her to the ground." Phyllis clenched her fists angrily, and looked at Meg. "They took over Raina's restaurant, said it was theirs, and didn't let us in. It's terrible."
