Chapter 1392: It’s Because I’m A Beautiful Big Sister
“I don’t care what this prawn is called. I’m going to eat it for lunch today!”
“I really have to admit that Boss Mag is indeed a top chef and a marketing genius. He has already attracted my attention to this prawn successfully.”
“It seems like this prawn will go very well with beer.”
The customers’ anticipation was completely triggered by Amy. They were watching Amy eat the crayfish while salivating and waiting anxiously for the restaurant to start its operations officially.
“Boss, you’re so bad.” Miya couldn’t help laughing as she looked at the impatient customers.
“Seems like we don’t have to do any introduction and promotion. This crayfish is going to be another one of the restaurant’s bestsellers.” Shirley smiled.
“This crayfish is so scrumptious. The customers will definitely love it,” Gina said softly. Even though she had grown up under the sea, she had never had such a delicious prawn before. She wondered where Mr. Mag found this prawn.
“How could you say this is bad? I’m only letting Amy do a demonstration for them. Otherwise, it would be difficult for those customers who had never seen crayfish before to eat it,” Mag replied seriously. It was not common to see a good boss who was as considerate as him.
“1,000 copper coins each?” Irina looked at Mag with astonishment as she picked up one of the menus, and looked at the pricing of the crayfish on it.
“The pricing of a product isn’t just decided by its value. There are other factors like scarcity and high prestige,” Mag said calmly. The crayfish that he bought from the system cost 100 copper coins each. Although setting the price at 1,000 copper coins was a little exorbitant, it wasn’t a big problem, either.
After all, this was a marine crayfish that weighed 1 kg each. One was enough to make a person full.
Even based on the price of the Australian lobster in his previous life, a live one would have cost over 600 copper coins. Together with his expert culinary skills, could 1,000 copper coins be considered as expensive?
Yes, it was indeed a little expensive.
Which restaurant’s crayfish cost 1,000 copper coins each?!
“Let’s get ready. It’s time for operation soon.” Mag looked at the clock on the wall. It was five minutes to the official operation hours.
Jane came forward, and softly asked Mag, “Boss, what should I do during lunch service?”
The restaurant was very busy, so she wanted to do her fair share. Otherwise, simply helping once a while made her feel like a good-for-nothing.
Mag pondered a while before saying, “Then, you will assist Anna in collecting payment. We will be busy for lunch, and collecting payment is a very important task. Anna is going to have a busy time.”
“Mm-hmm,” Jane answered.
Anna smiled at Jane. “Well then, I will have to bother you, Big Sister Jane.”
Jane smiled and nodded too. Although Anna was tiny, she was very good at collecting payment. However, the restaurant was so busy it was a little overwhelming for her to count the sum, collect money, and return the change alone. Jane could help to lighten her load.
“Let’s get to work.” Mag straightened his chef’s uniform. After making sure everything was fine, he pulled open the restaurant’s door, and smilingly said to hundreds of customers lining up outside, “Welcome to Mamy Restaurant.”
The customers looked at Mag standing tall and straight at the restaurant’s door, and instantly felt relieved. That door was finally open.
And Amy happened to finish the last pincer, and she looked up at Mag and smiled with satisfaction. “Father, I am done. I’m so full.”
“Mm-hm. Little Amy, you really enjoy your food.” Mag smiled indulgently as he patted Amy’s head. He always felt very satisfied after seeing the little one’s blissful and sated smile.
Money could no longer motivate him. Amy was his greatest motivation on his path to become the God of Cookery.
He had promised to cook the Manchu Han Imperial Feast for her before. He couldn’t give up before achieving this small target.
The customers entered the restaurant orderly, and Mag greeted every single one of them. He could remember all his customers’ names. This was also why the customers were willing to frequent the restaurant.
“Is the braised crayfish what Little Boss was eating earlier? 1,000 copper coins each is a little expensive.”
The customers took their seats, and they quickly noticed the crayfish that was added to the menu and the price marked behind it.
Many decided against ordering one to try right away. 1,000 copper coins wasn’t a small sum. They could have a few roujiamos and tofu puddings with it.
“I think the pricing is rather reasonable. One crayfish is enough to make one full, and together with a mug of beer, it would be a very good combination,” Harrison said after looking at the menu. He sat with Gjerj and his family to make up one table.
“I agree with your pairing.” Gjerj nodded in agreement before asking Miranda and the kids, “What would you guys like to eat?”
“I would like to have a crayfish too.” Parmer raised his hand.
Parber raised his hand, and repeated, “Ice cream. I want to eat ice cream.”
“Parber, you cannot have ice cream before your meal.” Miranda pressed Parber’s hand down before saying, “I would like to try out that prawn too. Amy seemed to enjoy it very much. I wonder what it tastes like. Parber and Angus can share it with me as it’s so big and I won’t be able to finish it myself.”
“Alright.” Gjerj nodded. Miya happened to approach them, so he ordered four helpings of crayfish, two mugs of beer, and six helpings of tofu pudding.
“Can Angus, my little friend, have tofu pudding now?” Harrison looked at Angus, who was chewing on his hand with amazement after placing their orders.
“Boss Mag said he could have a little, but children shouldn’t have too much of it,” Gjerj answered with a smile.
“The usefulness of children is on full display now.” Harrison sighed.
The little one in Miranda’s arms was sucking on a soft wood pacifier and looking around curiously with her big eyes. This was her first time out of the house.
“Hello, Little Sister Christy.” Amy came over and smilingly greeted the baby in Miranda’s arms on her tiptoes.
“Eh, eh.” The little one’s gaze landed on Amy, and her big round eyes lit up as she dropped her pacifier. She extended her hands toward Amy as if she wanted her to hold her.
“Do you want me to hold you? Oh well.” Amy sighed before asking Miranda, “Auntie Miranda, can I hold the baby?”
“Of course you can.” Miranda nodded smilingly, and passed Christy to Amy carefully. “Christy wouldn’t even ask her father to carry her. I never expected she would approach Amy.”
“It’s because I’m a beautiful big sister.” Amy hugged Christy and gave her a peck on her cheek. Christy immediately smiled happily.
“I want a pretty big sister to kiss and hug me too.” Parber stood up from the chair, pouted his lips, and extended his hands to Amy.
“But I don’t want to.” Amy rejected him with a serious expression.
