"We'll keep it a secret." Meg nodded with a smile as he took the document from Dicus' hands and began to read it carefully.
The content of the document was actually very simple. It clearly stated the responsibilities of both parties, as well as the area that Mamy's could use, as well as the scope of the business license — the restaurant.
Apart from that, there was also a confidentiality agreement and a three-year lease contract, with a rent of one copper coin per year. Even friendship prices weren't that exaggerated. It could be said that Mamy's could use the restaurant for free.
There were no problems with the contract, so Meg signed it right away.
"Mr. Meg's performance last night was very impressive. If you were a politician, you would definitely be able to control the entire situation." Dicus put away the document, and looked at Meg with a sincere expression.
"I'm just a chef." Meg shook his head with a smile. He looked at Dicus, and said, "The restaurant is about to open for business. Would you like to return to the city lord's castle now, or do you want to have breakfast first?"
"I came here on an empty stomach this morning." Dicus smiled.
"Alright, please take a seat and rest for a while. The restaurant will be open for business soon." Meg nodded with a smile.
"By the way, the city lord's castle's finance department has to apply for the reservation fee before they can send the money over to Mr. Mak. It should be sent over today," Dicus added.
"Alright." Meg nodded with a smile. He wasn't worried that the city lord's castle would go back on their word. Furthermore, he didn't feel guilty about accepting the 300,000 copper coins. He had put in a lot of effort and thought to promote the success of the meeting last night.
At half-past seven, Meg opened the restaurant's doors with a smile, and said, "Welcome, the restaurant has released a new ice cream today. There are four flavors to choose from, so feel free to give it a try. However, the ice cream is cold, so it's not suitable for eating on an empty stomach. I suggest that you eat it after breakfast. Also, each person is limited to two per meal."
"Another new product! Mr. Mak is so awesome, the speed at which he's releasing new products is incredible! "
"I don't know what ice cream is, but I've decided to order one first. Mr. Mak's products have never been disappointed."
The eyes of the customers in the line all lit up upon hearing this, and they discussed among themselves as they walked in.
"Mr Mak … Long time no see." A tall figure walked over and looked at Meg with a silly smile. It was Haga, who had not been here for a long time. Haga followed behind him.
"Haha, how's your hand?" Meg asked concernedly as he looked at Haga's arm, which was hanging around his neck with a piece of wood and cloth.
Haga hadn't come back since the last internal conflict. He had heard from Habeng that the war was over and that Haga had led his people to victory. He didn't expect that he would still be injured.
"It's … It's nothing. It's just a small … small problem." Haga shook his head with a silly smile. He was still not fluent in the common language of the continent. He glanced around the restaurant as if he was looking for something.
"Amy went to Chaos School for lessons, and she mentioned you a few days ago. She'll be very happy to know that you're back." Meg said with a smile. Haga and Habeng were the restaurant's first customers, so Amy remembered them very well.
"Is that so? Studying … Good, good. " Haga scratched his head as he saw the people behind him waiting to enter, so he hurriedly walked into the restaurant.
Bernice stopped at the entrance of the restaurant, and turned to Mag with a smile as she said, "Congratulations, Boss Mag. All five of your dishes have made it to the top 100 on the Aden Square food competition rankings board. This is an unprecedented feat."
"You're too humble, Boss Bernice. I heard that your restaurant made it into the top 10 this time. Mamy's is still a far cry from that." Mag shook his head with a smile. Bernice was also the owner of a restaurant in the Aden Square. Earlier, a few of the restaurant owners had come to dine together, and after that, they would occasionally come to dine together, so they had become quite familiar with each other.
"Mr Mak, you're making me feel a little embarrassed. If it weren't for the size of your restaurant, all of your dishes would've made it into the top 10." Bernice shook her head with a smile, and continued, "Also, I heard that the Catering Association is preparing to change the rules of the Aden Square food competition. The rankings will no longer be decided by the votes of the customers. Perhaps next month's Aden Square food competition will be dominated by Mamy's."
"Thank you, Boss Bernice. Please come in." Meg shook his head with a smile. Even though he was being praised, he didn't become complacent. If the system hadn't given him a mission, Meg wouldn't have been willing to buy a ticket that cost 1 copper coin. He didn't care about rankings at all.
"Another new dish? I heard from Master Marcy that the sweet tofu pudding was super delicious last time, but these customers are also saying that the other dishes are also super delicious. Which one should I eat? "Kenny stroked his bulging wallet with a conflicted expression.
Kenny was an apprentice at Lacy's Barbershop. He was 15 years old this year, and he was a little thin and frail with a head of soft, wavy blond hair.
He had been an apprentice for over three months, and the barbershop provided food and accommodation. He was responsible for washing the customers' hair every day. In the beginning, he was often scolded by customers for using too much water or using too much force. However, he was becoming more and more proficient at it now, and he had even been praised by a customer the day before.
There was still over half a year before he could officially start learning how to cut hair. Even though it was a little difficult, Kenny was confident that he could persevere. As long as he could learn how to cut hair, he would be able to make a name for himself regardless of whether he stayed in the shop as a barber or returned to the village to open his own barbershop.
Yesterday, the boss had given them their wages, and left some money to be sent home. Kenny also wanted to reward himself, so he came to try the delicious sweet tofu pudding that the best chef in the shop, Master Marcy, had mentioned. It was said that one serving cost 200 copper coins, which was almost half his monthly salary.
Kenny gripped the money pouch tightly. Even though it was quite heavy, it was filled with 200 copper coins.
Kenny took a deep breath and made up his mind. He followed the customer in front of him into the restaurant. The two beautiful waitresses made him falter slightly before he lowered his head shyly. He had never seen such beautiful waitresses before, not even in the shop.
Soon, the lavish decor in the restaurant attracted his attention. The dazzling chandeliers, intricate murals, and beautiful decorations on the walls made him feel a little dazzled. This was the first time that he had been to such a luxurious place.
"Sir, there's an empty seat over there. There's a menu on the table. You can take a look at what you want to eat." Yabemiya looked at Kenny with a smile.
"Oh … Oh, okay." Kenny looked at Yabemiya's warm smile, and he immediately felt less nervous. He sat down on the seat next to her, and flipped open the menu on the table. His eyes immediately lit up.
"Is this the tofu pudding? It looks so delicious! "
"There's a big piece of meat sandwiched between two pancakes. It looks so delicious!"
"This fish … I've never eaten fish before. It looks so delicious too!"
