A Stay-at-home Dad’s Restaurant In An Alternate World
Chapter 1706 - Tell Me, What Is Your Dream?Chapter 1706: Tell Me, What Is Your Dream?
The mutton soup had completely won Leiden and Moore over.
For the father-and-son duo who had been eating the cheapest wafers from roadside stalls ever since they came to Chaos City from the Twilight Forest, this bowl of soup made them truly feel the essence of a large city.
As much as they were surprised, they also could not help but feel a little dispirited.
It seemed that their thought of opening a mutton restaurant would never be realized. They could already feel the distance and how much they were lacking.
This thought made both of them sigh.
Harrison glanced at the dispirited father-and-son, then at the goat-skin clothes on them, and smilingly asked, “What do you do for a living? I see that you’re both wearing sheep-skin clothes. Are you selling sheep?”
“Sheep-skin clothes are warm. Even I have one,” Gjerj said with a smile.
Leiden hesitated for a while, and replied with a forceful smile, “We used to be shepherds, but a while ago, our shepherding grassland was taken over by another tribe. Therefore, we came to Chaos City. As of now, we have been working for others to earn money.”
“Our dream is to open a mutton restaurant. But…” Moore motioned to the mutton soup in front of him, and regretfully said, “Father doesn’t make mutton as good as this.”
“I see.” Harrison thought for a while, smiled, and quickly replied, “If you use Boss Mag as a standard on whether you should open a restaurant, then none of the other restaurants in Chaos City should open.”
“Exactly. Boss Mag is the top chef of Chaos City. He was even declared the best chef by the king of the Roth Empire at the royal banquet. How many chefs on the Norland Continent would dare to say that they can cook better?” Gjerj replied with a smile.
“Er…” Leiden and Moore were stunned. They didn’t expect the owner of this restaurant to be so formidable.
“However, if you want to open a mutton restaurant, you must have a certain level of skill. Mutton reeks with a strong rank odor. If you don’t do it well, not many will like it,” Harrison reminded them. Before this, he had tried various ways of eating mutton.
Leiden pondered. Before coming to Chaos City, he had never minded the rank odor of mutton. They’d lived and stayed with sheep all their lives. During winter, they even lay on the sheep for warmth. Even if Moore minded the rank odor, he only used some simple methods to get rid of the smell. However, he didn’t know if that would meet the expectations of Chaos City.
“The child was just spouting nonsense. We’ve just arrived here, and have not decided whether to open a shop or not.” Leiden shook his head with a smile. He had already given up inside.
He was simply an honest shepherd. He wouldn’t know anything about business or opening a restaurant. He didn’t have enough money in his pocket to rent a place to stay. What means would he have to open a mutton restaurant? He couldn’t even afford a goat.
“Ding! New mission: Leiden and his son’s dream!
“Please aid Leiden and his son in fulfilling their dream. You’ll receive a mystery reward!”
The system’s voice suddenly rang in Mag’s head
“Hm?” Mag, who was busy cooking in the kitchen, was stunned. Frowning, he said, “Leiden and his son’s dream? System, do you think I am a fairy godmother?”
“It is the job of the candidate for the God of Cookery to bring your customers a happy dining experience and spread the culinary methods of creating delicacies.”
“What has that got to do with helping people fulfill their dreams? Do I have to run to them and say: tell me, what is your dream? Do you think I am dying to become famous?”
“You’ll have a chance of getting strength from the mystery reward.”
“Ahem… er, where’s my leather shorts?” Mag looked out of the shop. He swept a glance across the customers, and finally stopped at the orcs sitting near the entrance.
He remembered that they were called Leiden and Moore. When he was greeting the customers at the door, he scanned their details, and knew why the system targeted them and chose them as the lucky consumers.
However, Mag did not mind, since it was for his strength. He already could not wait to hold them back and ask them for their dream to help them realize it.
That was right. He was a very helpful person.
Since he was going to ask them for his dream, he would have to help them fulfill it. Otherwise, what was the point of asking? To earn some tears?
When the entire world knew your dream, it would be very embarrassing if you were unable to push on.
“What did the orcs sitting at the entrance order?” Mag asked Miya when she came in.
“A sweet tofu pudding. However, Harrison ordered two bowls of mutton soup for them,” Miya replied.
“Mm-hmm.” Mag nodded. He could tell that they were probably not very well-off. Maybe their dream had something to do with money. Mag could satisfy any of their requests as long as they were within 1,000,000 copper coins.
He was that confident since he had the money.
However, the two of them only ordered one sweet tofu pudding. Although Harrison also ordered a bowl of mutton soup each for them, Mag still had to keep a close eye on them in case he couldn’t find them after they left. That would be awkward.
“Bro, I wasn’t trying to discourage you. I think it’s completely fine for you to give it a go. Boss Mag is paving the way for mutton. All the dishes he makes will quickly become a series of restaurants. If you could come up with your style of mutton, you would definitely be able to make it in Chaos City’s food and beverage industry,” Harrison quickly added on seeing that Leiden appeared to have given up. He was afraid his words might scare a good chef away.
“Yes. There are a lot of people in Chaos City who don’t really like mutton right now. However, no one had duck intestine and tripe in the past as well. These two things have increased in price over this period of time,” Gjerj added.
Upon hearing the two’s words, Leiden was a little moved. All of a sudden, he didn’t know how to reply.
“Although my father’s mutton isn’t as good as this mutton soup, it’s definitely the best in our tribe. He not only knows how to make roast mutton, but he could also even make mutton stew. His mutton stew is superb,” Moore said with a nod, his face was full of pride.
“Mutton stew.” Harrison’s and Gjerj’s eyes lit up.
“I see that you guys have a pot. Why don’t we do this? After breakfast, we’ll buy half a sheep and you, bro, can make us some mutton stew to try. We’ll buy the sheep and if we like it, you can leave the mutton restaurant to me,” Harrison said with a pat on his chest.
“Count me in. It’s right to have dreams. I’ll support your dream.” Gjerj also patted his chest.
“This…” Leiden looked at the both of them with agitation and gratitude.
“That’s set. We’ll set off after breakfast,” Harrison said with a pat on Leiden’s shoulder. At that moment, his fried rice and Gjerj’s youtiao were served. Next, he ordered a plate of Yangzhou fried rice each for Leiden and his son.
