Chapter 947 “Interfering Teacher“ Cres
The opening hours in the morning went by peacefully without any hiccups. Apart from Anna being a little uncertain the first time she did the check, nothing else went wrong with Yabemiya and Babla’s help. s.h.i.+rley quickly caught up to Sally’s efficiency. Furthermore, with the division of labor, there was even more room for improvement.
“Thanks for the hard work.” Mag looked at s.h.i.+rley, who slumped on a table without a care for her image after she finished cleaning the entire restaurant.
“I didn’t expect a seemingly simple job like this could be so tiring after doing it repeatedly for hundreds of times. This is not a job for an elf.” s.h.i.+rley looked at Mag grudgingly through a transparent gla.s.s.
“The most tired person should be Uncle Mag. He had to cook so many delicacies for all the customers by himself,” Anna said as she held a gla.s.s, shaking her head. She looked at Mag with reverence and adoration.
“Good girl.” Mag smiled as he patted Anna’s head. This little one really warmed people’s hearts with her words. He was even tempted to give her a tip.
“Heehee.” Anna smiled obediently like a kitten.
s.h.i.+rley, who was slumped over the table, suddenly sat up and looked at Mag cautiously. Then, she said with a relaxed expression, “Was that hard? I don’t find it hard at all. This is just a piece of cake for me.”
Anna turned to s.h.i.+rley with a smile, and said, “Big Sister s.h.i.+rley also did a fantastic job.”
“Shouldn’t I be fantastic naturally?” s.h.i.+rley said with a smile in her eyes.
“Yes. s.h.i.+rley’s magic is really fantastic. The restaurant is as clean as if Aisha had cleaned it,” Yabemiya agreed wholeheartedly. She looked at s.h.i.+rley with envy in her eyes. If only she could use magic too.
Mag smilingly said, “It’s your personal time from now till eleven. You are free to do as you please. We will eat lunch at eleven. If you want to have lunch, come back earlier.”
“Then, I shall go to the ice cream shop now. Anna, s.h.i.+rley, do you guys wanna go and have some fun together?” Miya asked s.h.i.+rley and Anna as she removed her ap.r.o.n.
“I would like to learn to cook from Uncle Mag with Big Sister Firis, so I won’t be joining Big Sister Miya.” Anna shook her head.
“I have a place to be, so I’m not joining you, either.” s.h.i.+rley stood up and shook her head.
After everybody dispersed, Mag began to teach Firis and Anna.
Firis continued learning to roast beef kebabs. Her beef kebabs were getting better after her days of practice, but they were still far from being perfect.
However, when it came to the concoction of the sauces, she was very talented. She could already concoct all three sauces perfectly. With regards to control, she indeed was very gifted.
Anna continued with her previously uncompleted course. This little one didn’t have much culinary experience; hence, Mag let her start from learning knife skills. Other skills would then be taught after she had a good foundation on basic knife skills.
“Ding! Congratulations, Host. As you have taken in two disciples, you shall receive an “Interfering Teacher” crest and a “Disciple Direction”opportunity. After you decide to activate it, the other party will enter the test field for the G.o.d of Cookery in her dreams and receive a testing opportunity.” The system’s voice suddenly appeared at this time.
“Hmm?” Mag raised his eyebrow and looked at the s.h.i.+ny medal in his mind. Feeling very surprised, he said, “System, what the heck is this ‘Interfering Teacher’? Wouldn’t you be exposed if someone else enters the testing field too?”
“Relax please, Host. If you don’t bring this up deliberately, no one will know of the existence of the test field for the G.o.d of Cookery. The directed person will only think she had a dream after she wakes up,” the system said.
“That’s good.” Mag looked at Firis, who was placing the kebabs with burnt edges on a side and putting new kebabs onto the grill again. He continued, “Then, I shall give this opportunity to Firis. Given her current progress, she would be able to master roasting beef kebabs with just one entry to the test field.”
A golden light flew out of the crest and disappeared into Firis’s forehead.
“Direction is successful.” The system sounded.
Mag relaxed after seeing that both Firis and Anna didn’t notice that golden light at all. He proceeded to curiously ask,” System, what’s the use for this crest?”
“As a G.o.d of Cookery, it’s not your ultimate motive to conquer the world with Chinese cuisine. The real duty is to spread Chinese cuisine throughout the world, change the world’s dining habits, and make more people love cooking and life. The crest is a reward for the Host who has made a contribution in promoting food culture. The Host will receive a special reward after he receives three crests,” the system answered.
“There’s something good like this? So, what should I do to receive more crests?” Mag’s eyes brightened. He loved transactions with rewards.
“The Host only needs to promote Chinese cuisine to the best of your ability. As for the rest, just go with the flow.”
“You might as well have said nothing!” Mag rolled his eyes.
Mag also gained some new ideas after talking to the system. Just like the system had said, if he was the only person who knew how to cook Chinese cuisine in this world, even though the customers loved his food, this world would no longer have Peking Duck and Roujiamo after he pa.s.sed away.
How lonely would that be.
Mag sighed silently. It was indeed gratifying to be able to decide the heights of culinary arts in a world.
However, when it came to releasing the recipes… He wasn’t stupid. He hadn’t earned enough money to make a stupid move like this.
Mag made himself a cup of tea in a good mood. He was content being a supervisor at a side.
Right at this moment, someone knocked on the door.
Mag opened the door while holding the cup of tea. Sheer, who was wearing a red trench coat, stood at the door with a man with thinning hair, a pair of thick gla.s.ses, and a black doc.u.ment bag underneath his armpit.
“Mr Mag, I’ve got a matter to discuss with you. May I have a little of your time, please?” Scheer smiled at Mag.
Mag’s gaze remained at the trenchcoat that Scheer was wearing for a moment. Wasn’t that the design that he had given to Gloria? It seemed Gloria had already begun selling it. The cutting was proper, and the workmans.h.i.+p was very fine. It looked clean-cut on Scheer, giving her some additional presence.
“Of course. Please come in.” Mag stepped aside with a smile and nodded slightly to that middle-aged man with a receding hairline.
Scheer saw Firis and Anna in the kitchen after she stepped into the restaurant. She pointed to the man next to her. “Let me make the introduction. This is Bourell. He’s the chief engineer in charge of the steam engine locomotive project.”
“How do you do, Mr Mag? It’s a pleasure to meet you. You’re an admirable genius designer.” Bourell stepped forward to grasp Mag’s hand with both of his with admiration in his eyes.
“It’s my pleasure to meet you too. Please have a seat.” Mag nodded and smiled. This man looked like his college mentor, giving him a sense of familiarity.
Scheer sat and went straight to the point as she looked at Mag. “We have come to tell Mr Mag that construction of the first steam engine locomotive is completed, and it is in the process of preliminary debugging. We hope Mr Mag would spare some time to join us at the production base to a.s.sess it as the chief designer.”
