Chapter 38
The [System] took a long time to consider, and finally in frustration said, “Please can you kindly be more ‘normal’ and do things accordingly to the plan? Your weird thoughts created a lot of difficulties for me!”
“Well, tomorrow I can get hold of 3000 gold pieces, and use it to purchase the ingredients . ” Michael knew how to work around this system, “3000 gold coins, cas.h.!.+”
“Approved . ” [System] replied .
Michael grinned . This system is a huge money grubber . As long as he offers money, anything is possible . He rubbed Amy on her head as he said, “All right, I will make you a juicy hamburger in 2 days time, ok?”
“Juicy hamburger?” Amy’s eyes lit up . She asked her father in curiosity, “Papa, what is that?”
“It is something like pancakes, but it tastes 100 times better . When you wake up the day after tomorrow, you will know about it . ” Michael did not want to reveal too much, and kept Amy in suspense .
“Oh, that must be super tasty!” Amy thought of the pancakes she used to love, and think 100 times tastier . She could not imagine it, and was excited when she looked at her father .
“En, go and bathe first, then change in your pyjamas to sleep . I will wash the plates and clean up the restaurant, then I will go up to tell you story, ok?”
“Ok!” Amy obediently nodded her head, and jumped down from the stool . She squatted down and patted the huge egg and said, “Ugly duckling, you must be good and sleep more . Then quickly hatch and grow up quickly . ” Then she climbed up the stairs .
Michael looked at the large egg on the ground near the counter, and for a 3 whole seconds , he mourned for the unborn little ugly duckling – Amy was really persistent .
After he had placed the plates into the dishwaters, wiped all the tables and mopped the floor, Michael finally grinned . Although he was tired, he thought that he had exercised a lot . This will hopefully increase his const.i.tution . At this moment, he does not need to hire help yet .
When Michael turned off the lights in the restaurant, Amy was already sound asleep . She was wearing the purple colour bear pyjamas, and her beautiful little face resembles an angel .
Michael placed her hands inside the blankets . Looks like she is really exhausted .
“System, I want to buy another pair of pyjamas . It should be brown colour bear . ” Michael silently asked .
“I do not… . . ”
“I pay cash . ”
“The pyjamas you desire is in the wardrobe . Please check . ”
When Michael opened the wardrobe, he found a large bear pyjamas, and the design is very cute .
“Very good!” Michael happily nodded his head, and took a bath . Then he wear the bear pyjamas .
On Earth, he would not wear these pyjamas .
But right now, all he was thinking of is: When Amy wakes up and saw him in that bear pyjamas, would she be happy?
After bathing and wearing the pyjamas, Michael lays on the bed and thought a lot of things . The thought that he had about crowd-funding is a bit hard for most people to accept . As well, the restaurant had only opened for two days . To raise 3000 gold coins is not easy .
After thinking for a while, Michael finally worked out a plan . The regular customers in this restaurant are quite rich . From their words, he had learned some things .
Moby is one of the few dwarven smiths in the City of Sin . Each weapon he made is worth 1000 gold coins . And each day, he could eat 2 plates of [Yang Zhou Fried Rice] per meal for all 3 meals . Other than the taste, he was interested in removing his fatigue, so that he could serve more customers in future .
Harold and Hagard are the sons of an Orc chieftain . They are in charge of procurement . They could afford to purchase a large number of weapons for their warriors . This means Michael thought of the government in Dubai that could afford to give its police officers Lamborghini to drive . That is how rich they are .
As for Conti, he did not reveal much . But other than the mule, his equipment were top notch, and this made Michael thinks that he is a rich man’s son .
The elf woman was also considered, but she does not seem to be the type that have a lot of money to spend . As well, she did not come back . Therefore, she is not considered a possible candidate for crowd-funding .
He is not too familiar with the rest of the customers, and their relations.h.i.+p is not as good . Therefore, if he wants an investor, he needs to approach these few guests .
After thinking it over, Michael looked at the sleeping figure of Amy, and turned off the lights . In a short while, he had also fallen asleep .
The next morning, when Michael opened his eyes, there was a figure that was looking at him with delight and astonishment .
“Oh, you are awake?” Michael smiled as he sit up, and gently stroked Amy’s hair .
“En En, Papa, your clothes and mine are the same – they are all bears! You are big bear, and I am small bear . We are family!” Amy happily pointed at Michael’s pyjamas .
“That’s right, do you like it?” Michael smiled and nodded his head .
“I love it . And it is so soft and warm . ” Amy immediately leapt into his chest and hugged him . Then she placed her head against the bear’s fur, and rubbed her face against his chest, and closed her eyes .
Michael looked at Amy and his heart melted . He played with Amy for a bit, then he bathed and went down .
Amy looked at Michael and touched her hair . She pouted as she asked Michael, “Other’s family father knows how to tie their hair, when can you help me to tie my hair?”
“Er… . . I will put in more efforts . ” Michael embarra.s.singly rubbed his head . This is indeed a problem for him . If he succeed in his business plan, he must purchase the hair tying experience bag from the System . In future, whatever hairstyle Amy wants, he will tie it for her .
“Do your best, Papa! I have confidence in you . ” Amy clutched her fists and encouraged him .
“All right . ” Michael nodded his head in resignation .
After eating their breakfast, Michael wrote down 6 identical pieces of investment plans . Each piece is approximately 500 gold coins . After double checking the plan had no problems, and that it is almost time to open for business, he walked up to the door and opened it .
“Boss Mike, your business is quite good yesterday . ” The first to arrive is still Moby, and he proceeded to make himself comfortable at his favourite seat . “2 plates of [Yang Zhou Fried Rice] as usual . ”
“Boss Moby, it is thanks to you for recommending my restaurant to your business a.s.sociate . Please wait for a moment . ” Michael smiled as he greeted Moby .
“Boss Mike, we are back! It is still 5 plates of fried rice per person as usual!” Moby had barely sat down when Harold and Haggard returned .
Then there are the sound of hooves stomping against the pavement .
Michael smiled and nodded his head . He did not enter the kitchen first . Instead he waited for Conti . Then he begin his business pitch, “Because I have just started this business, I am a bit tight on funds . Therefore I am intending to create a new crowd funding venture . Are you interest in partic.i.p.ating?”
