A Stay-at-home Dad’s Restaurant In An Alternate World

Irina slept with Annie because she was afraid that Annie would be frightened after Amy went to Rodu.

Mag felt especially relieved to sleep on his single bed alone.

“As long as the Host is cowardly, 404¹ cannot get me. You little jerks…” A row of tiny words flashed through his mind quickly.

The system, who posted a mocking message in the group chat, was kicked out again.

***

The first thing Mag did after waking up the next day was to write an announcement.

“Mamy Restaurant will be participating in the Chaos City’s Delicacy Extravaganza tomorrow. We will be releasing two new limited-edition products at the Delicacy Extravaganza tomorrow—they will only be released during the Delicacy Extravaganza, and won’t appear in the restaurant’s menu.

“At the same time, I will share the complete recipes of all the octopus dishes on the Delicacy Extravaganza publicly, and conduct on-the-spot teaching!

“Are you tempted?”

“This is more than tempting. I have already exploded!”

“Does these new limited-edition products mean they’re only available on that day? We will have to wait for a year if we miss it that day?”

“Share the recipes publicly and conduct on-the-spot teaching? I think the Food Association must have struck a deal with Boss Mag under the table.”

“Am I lacking in learning how to do it? What I lack is ample fresh octopus. We can’t buy this at the seafood market at all.”

“Anyway, I have already decided to let all my chefs at home to go there and learn tomorrow so they will know what real cooking is.”

“Can I go and open a restaurant if I learn how to cook it?”

A sudden commotion broke out among the customers lining up at the entrance after they read the notice.

“Are you sure they can learn how to cook it?” Irina stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, and looked at the excited customers out there with a skeptical attitude. These people didn’t look like they knew how to cook.

“Others can learn how to do it even if they can’t.” Mag smiled. “Besides, they don’t have to make it to my standard. As long as they can grasp the methods and steps, the octopus dishes will defeat their normal dishes easily.”

Irina turned to look at Annie, who was nibbling on the tofu pudding, and smilingly said, “Annie has started learning nature magic. Seems like it indeed suits her. Let her continue learning from Xixi today. The World Tree in Xixi can increase Annie’s cultivation speed greatly.”

“Alright. I’ll send her over later.” Mag nodded. Annie had learned it for one day. Her talent was indeed shocking.

“I heard from Ashley that you intend to expand the factory?”

“Yes. The Night Elves have over 30,000 people, and that number is still increasing. Although the textile factory can support the Night Elves now, it still can’t let all the Night Elves enjoy a blissful and comfortable living standard. I intend to create jobs for all the Night Elves.” Mag nodded. “I intend to set up an employees’ happiness foundation with my textile factory’s shares. 10% of the annual revenue will be used to do charity, while the remaining 90% will be used to give dividends to all the employees.”

Irina looked at Mag with a glow in her eyes.

“It’s fine. It’s what I should do.” Mag smiled.

“This is all my money. You are so generous to donate it.” Irina rolled her eyes, but she couldn’t help smiling.

Mag continued, “Furthermore, I also decided to recruit employees from the Night Elves for the brewery that I collaborate on with Hannah. The salary will be the same as the textile factory’s, and the technical talents will be paid even more.”

“Yes. Ashley mentioned that to me. You can just look for her regarding this. She knows better than me who the people that you need are.” Irina nodded. She threw a glance at the clock on the wall. “I’ve got to go now. Helena wants to meet me outside the city today.”

“Do I need to accompany you?”

“No. It’s enough for Ah Zi to go with me. She won’t dare to touch me now.” Irina shook her head. After her saying goodbye to Annie, a golden light flashed under her feet, and she disappeared from the restaurant.

Ding~

The doorbell rang. Firis and the ladies had arrived.

After the breakfast service, Mag went straight to the seafood shop. The acting manager, Alia, was waiting outside the shop with nine elves.

The group of 10 good-looking elves attracted the passers-by’s attention when they stood at the entrance of the shop.

Mag stood the bicycle in front of the shop, and smiled at them. “You guys came early.”

“We have only just arrived.” Alia smiled, and her tone was gentle.

“Let’s go in first.” Mag used a key to open the lock in the small door. He pressed on a button to raise the rolling shutter door after they entered. A shop with three open shop fronts was revealed.

A one-meter-wide display stand surrounded the exterior of the shop, and it was separated into 10 different sections. A simple barstool which they could use to rest their feet during the lull period was placed under each section of the counter.

All the elves looked at the place that they were going to start work at curiously. Compared to the textile factory, the decor here was more exquisite.

“These counters are your working area. There’s a total of 10 sections, and each of you has a designated section. We will draw lots to distribute the sections later.”

Mag looked at all of them smilingly, and confidently said, “I have told all of you yesterday that this shop was a comprehensive seafood shop, but we are only selling octopus tentacles currently. Our objective is to make the octopus tentacle into a hit item, and make everyone in Chaos City fall in love with it.”

All of them were looking at Mag with a shimmering gaze. Although they were still not extremely enthusiastic, they already had a clear understanding of themselves and this shop.

Mag took out a stack of small and thin sales instruction manuals, and passed them to Alia before saying, “This is the sales instruction manual for the octopus tentacle. We don’t need any sales talk to sell a best-seller. We are using the best quality and cheap prices to impact the customers’ understanding. However, we do need to have the sales attitude that can match it—we need to respect the customers and respect ourselves. All of you can figure out the details when you go back, but I hope all of you can recite the content of the employees’ code of conduct to the manager tomorrow morning.”

Alia passed a booklet to every one of them. Some elves stole a peek at it. They heaved a sigh of relief after realizing that there were only 20 short and simple lines for the employees’ code of conduct.

“Now, I will need all of you to familiarize yourselves with the shop.” Mag clapped his hands to attract all their attention before leading them around the shop.

The lounge that was separated from the work area was split into two by genders. They could take a short break during the lunch break. Beds and beddings were provided, and heated floors were installed.

There were beverages and snacks provided at the rest and relax area. As it was still a working environment, Mag didn’t provide any entertainment facilities. Instead, he put a massage chair there so that they could relax their bodies and minds for a while after a busy work day. Separate male and female washrooms were provided too.

All the elves looked excited. A comfortable rest area and an exquisite and interesting rest area. No one expected to have such a considerate design in the shop. This working environment was fantastic.

Everyone started to look at Mag with more respect and adoration.. This boss was indeed very considerate to his employees, making them feel respect and love.
