Abe the Wizard

Chapter 449 - Branch



Chapter 449 Branch

“Master, I have already signed a contract, and did training with each of the staff!” Bartoli said to Abel, who was training.

“Nice, these are some fresh rabbit essence. Take them with you. Did you think about how to run those restaurants?” Although Abel rarely asked about the restaurants, he was opening an extra 27 of them at once. This was quite a big deal for his family assets, so he had to ask.

“Master, I want to run all 27 restaurants just as I run the Forgotten Land!” Bartoli replied with a soft voice.

“Did you do some research on Linate City’s spending? Do you know how many people can afford these dishes?” Said Abel with a smile.

Although Abel didn’t know too much about business, he was a boomer. His sight for business was still well rounded than anyone here.

“Master, I didn’t!” Bartoli looked down and bowed.

“Actually, there’s no need. A large number of our customers are wizards. So it looks like only people with a high salary will come to our restaurant!” Said Abel looking at the confused Bartoli.

“Then what do I need to do?” Asked Bartoli again, she was not expecting Abel to be so business-oriented.

“I was thinking of water down the rabbit essence even more. Only give them one-fifth of the portion put in the Forgotten Land, and make the price one-fifth of the original price as well.” Said Abel after he thought for a little bit.

That rabbit essence wasn’t cheap. If Abel didn’t have a farm of blue howling rabbits in the Dark World, but instead raised them through a mana gathering circle, each of those rabbit essences would have an astronomical price.

Therefore Abel was actually just turning those endless amounts of blue howling rabbits into military resources.

“Yes, Master!” Said Bartoli after hearing Abel’s recommendation. To her, everything Abel said was basically a command.

“The Forgotten Land had already made a name after these events. So name the 27 restaurants after it and turn it into a branch!” Abel said after he thought a bit more

“A branch?” Bartoli had never heard this term before, so she was confused.

“Call the first restaurant, the Forgotten Land branch no.1, then branch no.1, keep doing this in order until no.27. Then people would know these are the branch restaurants of the Forgotten Land!” Abel explained.

“Great idea, Master, but what will happen to our customers?” Bartoli asked.

“Don’t worry; we still have the four-fifths of the rabbit essence!” Said Abel with a smile.

Without any ceremony, any formal celebration, the 27 restaurants were opened just like that.

Wizard Melinda was the second Wizard to level up in the Forgotten Land. Just like every day, he woke up early and began heading to the Forgotten Land.

However, as he was walking, he came across another restaurant with the same sign as the Forgotten Land. The only difference was there was a ‘ chain no.15’ writing under it. “Huh? How come there is another Forgotten Land here?”

With the urge of curiosity, Wizard Melinda entered this restaurant. Its design and decoration was almost an exact carbon copy of the original Forgotten Land; it was almost like it had just moved location.

His gaze then focused on the thing he cared the most, the menu. It was located in the same location, and the font was exactly the same.

Steamed egg 10 credit points

Steamed fish 20 credit points

Sweet and sour pork 20 credit points

Rib soup 30 credit points

Steak 20 credit points

What? How come it is so cheap here?

To people who have never eaten in the Forgotten Land before, this price was still a few times more expensive than other high-class restaurants.

But to a Forgotten Land regular, this price was too good to be true. Were they doing a promotion?

Excitement, joy, and happiness began to pour out from the heart of Wizard Melinda. Although he was quite wealthy, most of the time, he still hesitated buying a 100 credit point dish, let alone that 150 credit point rib soup.

But now he could finally order that rib soup he yearned for so long as well as a steak. Since this was a new restaurant, it was still empty.

There was no need to wait in line and no need to watch as the others enjoy their food as his mouth began to salivate. This was too amazing. Afterward, he found a place to sit down. Even the seats felt more comfortable. He was in love.

Wizard Melinda called a waiter over with an extremely confident voice and said, “Give me a rib soup and a steak!” Back in the original Forgotten Land, only an intermediate wizard could speak like this.

“Please wait!” Soon a waiter stepped up with a card and placed it in front of Wizard Melinda. This was the rule of the Forgotten Land. The customer had to pay before they eat. Since it was so expensive, it would be quite a big problem if everyone decided to eat and not pay.

After spending 50 credit points, Wizard Melinda sat and waited. By that point, he was still the only customer, but he knew full well that it was only because not many people had tried the food here before. If they had, they would all cleverly give out their money.

“Here is your rib soup and steak, if you need anything else, please let me know!” Said the waiter in a very professional manner.

Even the waiter’s attitude was better than the ones in the original Forgotten Land. Wizard Melinda then lowered his head to look at the dishes. It looked exactly the same. Although he had never tried the rib soup, he had the steak once before.

However, when he began to enjoy the smell of the dishes, he suddenly realized something different. ‘How come the smell is fainter than before?”

He was an official Wizard, so he could use his power of the will to analyze the component of what he saw. He was sure this smell was definitely a mile behind the ones in the original Forgotten Land.

But he didn’t give up, he cut up a piece of steak and placed it in his mouth. When the piece made contact with his tongue, he could clearly sense the taste that made him level up had been decreased by four-fifths.

Then he looked at the price on the wall again. It seems everything in this world really did come with a price.

Then he gazed around at the decorations in the shop again. It no longer had that low key yet grounded feeling of the original Forgotten Land. Everything here seemed too overdone with luxurious materials.

He then gazed at the waiter again, and cursed in his heart. ‘this rat eye looking thief, even Mickey looks much better than him. How can such an ugly person be a waiter!”

Although Wizard Melinda was not happy, he had already paid, and he was not going to waste the food. Therefore he just helplessly lowered his head and began shoving large mouthfuls of food in his mouth. By this point, he realized after eating from the original Forgotten Land, this one-fifth of the flavor was making him crave the original one even more.

Afterward, he took a sip of the rib soup. It was actually still very amazing. He had calmed down quite a bit. Now his appetite had expended after trying this new dish.

The mouth-watering smell of his steak and rib soup sifted out the door into the nose of the people walking by. They all suddenly turned their gaze towards the restaurant as hunger arose within them.

Slowly, the smell of rabbit essence began to fill up Linate City, attracting more and more customers into all 27 of the branched Forgotten Land. By this point, the Forgotten Land was like a huge spider waiting for its prey. Although their dishes were still extremely expensive, it was not intolerable like before. Normally a slightly wealthy person would still willingly give out their money to dine in one of the restaurants.
