Rage!
Blour's heart was instantly ignited with rage. Such supreme-grade tea leaves were being used as desserts by the restaurant owner; what a waste!
As such, in the instant that he rose to his feet, he almost couldn't help but yell. Thankfully, he managed to repress the urge to do so. Even though his voice was a little strange, it was still a woman's voice.
However, this sudden outburst of criticism immediately attracted the attention of all of the customers in the restaurant. Was this beautiful elf trying to stir up trouble? It had been a long time since anyone had stirred up trouble at Amy's.
Constantine was also looking at Blour with a hint of urgency in his eyes. There were many rules at Amy's, and one of them was that no one was allowed to make a racket in the restaurant. Furthermore, Blour was yelling at Mr. Mak as if she were going to exact vengeance on him.
Amy's mouth was slightly agape as she looked up at Blour. She didn't understand why this big sister was suddenly so angry. Furthermore, she was criticizing her father.
Yabemiya looked at the enraged Blour, and was momentarily at a loss for what to do. In fact, she didn't even know why she was suddenly so angry.
Sally looked at the mocha ice cream in Blour's hand, and could roughly guess what was going on. She turned to look into the restaurant.
"Excuse me, do you have any complaints about the restaurant?" Meg made his way out of the kitchen with two plates of Yangzhou fried rice, and placed them in front of the two customers before turning to Blour with a smile.
"Who … who do you think you are?!" Blour could feel all of the eyes on him, and he looked at the smile on Meg's face. He suddenly realized that in his current state, it wasn't appropriate for him to use foul language, so he blurted out those words without thinking.
"Ah … That's so embarrassing." Blour wanted to bury his face in his hands as soon as those words escaped his mouth.
"Hmm?" Meg faltered momentarily before looking at Blour with raised eyebrows. This crossdresser really was something else. In order to maintain his ladylike image, he almost burst into laughter.
Even when he's angry, he's still so adorable. I'm so lucky! Constantine looked at Blour with an intoxicated expression.
"Pffft …" Yabemiya couldn't help but burst into laughter. This elven girl really was quite interesting. All of the customers were curious about what kind of argument was going to ensue, and they all burst into laughter. Blour's way of scolding someone was really quite unique.
"Big Sister Shirley, what's a small biscuit? Can it be eaten? "Amy asked with a curious look on her face.
"It's a small biscuit." An awkward expression appeared on Blour's face, but he still offered an explanation to Amy. He cleared his throat to alleviate the awkwardness before turning to Mag with an enraged expression as he said, "Boss, don't you feel guilty for using such supreme-grade tea leaves to make desserts? Do you have any idea how valuable these tea tea leaves? Even the spring tea from Vic Mountain can't compare to this tea! "
"I know." Mag nodded with a smile. These tea leaves were taken from the eight Longjing Imperial Tea Trees. After the system's optimization and cultivation, the quality of these tea leaves was indeed the best. Even in his previous life, when he was often dragged to drink tea with his old man, he had never tasted such good tea before.
"Then why are you wasting it like this?!" Blour had thought that Meg was only using such precious tea leaves because he didn't know how valuable they were. However, he didn't think that Meg was aware of the value of these tea leaves, and that made him even more enraged.
"It's precisely because it's so precious that it's allowed to appear in the restaurant. That's why it's qualified to become an ingredient in the restaurant. Every customer deserves better. That's the only criterion I have when choosing ingredients. This is the best tea leaves, so I used them to make matcha ice cream. The ingredients in the restaurant are also the best." Meg looked at Blour with a calm expression. He wasn't enraged in the slightest, but he wasn't backing down in the slightest, either. It was as if he were merely stating an ordinary fact.
Could it be that he's telling the truth? That all of the ingredients in the restaurant are of the same caliber as these tea leaves? Blour looked into Meg's eyes. His black eyes were clear and bright, and there was something about them that made him believe in them. He thought back to the Yangzhou fried rice he had just eaten. Regardless of whether it was the rice, the eggs, or even the side dishes, they were all superior to what he usually ate.
"Moreover, this fellow actually turned a blind eye to my peerless beauty? How can there be a man in this world who can ignore my beauty?! Could it be … that he likes men? Blour raised an eyebrow upon discovering that things weren't as simple as they seemed.
"I was wondering why the food at Mamy's was so delicious. It turns out that Mr. Mak has done his best from the very beginning. It's rare to see a restaurant owner who cooks so seriously, so this is definitely worth the price," Harrison praised.
Gjerj nodded with a curious expression, and said, "Indeed. Just these ingredients alone are worth more than this price. I wonder where Mr. Mak got so many premium ingredients from. Regardless of whether it's that shrimp or that shiitake mushroom, they're all extremely rare items in Chaos City."
All of the customers who were initially feeling a little embarrassed were immediately dispelled upon hearing Meg's words. They suddenly felt that spending a few hundred copper coins on such a delicious dish was worth it.
"I admit that you have a point. These are your tea leaves, so you can do whatever you want with them." Blour turned to McGonagall with a serious expression, and asked, "But Boss, are you selling these tea leaves on their own?"
Everyone turned to Blour with a hint of surprise on their faces. They didn't think that she would back down so quickly, and even buy tea leaves from Mr. Mak.
"I'm sorry, but I'm not selling them." Meg shook his head. He didn't have any of these tea leaves; the system had only provided him with mocha tea. It was in the form of powder, so there was no such thing as tea leaves.
"Name a price. I'll take it even if it's twice the price you're paying for the ice cream. Also, I'll take as much as you have." Blour was still insistent. He didn't want to pass up on such premium tea leaves. Furthermore, it was extremely distressing to see such premium tea leaves being used as seasoning in a dessert.
"The green tea in our restaurant is only for mocha ice cream. We don't have a lot of it, so we're not selling it to the public." Mag shook his head. Double the price was not attractive to him at all. He warned, "If you don't have anything else to say, please eat your meal quietly. You are not allowed to make any noise in the restaurant in case you disturb the other customers. Otherwise, you will be blacklisted and banned from the restaurant."
"10 times! I'll pay 10 times the price for your tea leaves! "Blour gritted his teeth as he raised the price again.
"System, how about we switch to selling tea leaves? That's 10 times the profit!" Meg's expression remained unchanged, but he was already screaming internally.
"Please remember who you are. You're the man who's going to become the God of Cookery; how can you change your mind for such a small sum of money? How can a man like you bend over backwards for money … "the system said with a pained expression.
"Let's split it 50-50," Meg interjected.
