Chapter 250 Loop
Naxia joined the workshop late and had no idea how many stories had happened to the door that carried everything. She didn't care about it at all. She just calmly and quickly grabbed the roasted, plump and juicy oysters with their shells and meat into her plate, and took a few skewers of beef and pork belly.
She was now 100% certain that working at this brewery was the best decision she had ever made. Besides learning new dishes and techniques every day, she looked forward to the staff dinner every night the most.
Although we also eat meals provided by the restaurant at noon, noon is the time with the most customers and the best business, so everyone can only find time to fill their stomachs in the busy time.
Things were different at night. Thanks to the wise decision of the store manager Jiangyou, they were able to close the store early and sit down together to enjoy this satisfying and happy meal quietly and happily.
Naxia greedily sipped the steaming, sea-scented juices from the shells. The oysters were grilled to perfection, the flesh slightly shrunken yet still juicy, tender, and smooth. A hint of charred flavor around the edges gave them an incomparable, delicious soul.
Just take a sip of the oyster shell and the smooth oyster will slide into your mouth. It is like solid milk, with the smell of sea water and sweet taste covered by the rich garlic aroma, turning into a soft dream in your mouth.
Naxia narrowed her eyes happily and swayed in her seat. She could never taste this kind of food at home! Ah, it was so great to work here!
She was holding the food happily like a little hamster, but suddenly she found the store manager was looking at her. Naxia abruptly withdrew her hand holding the food, and she felt visibly guilty.
A bony claw pushed a plate of grilled skewers on the table in front of Naxia. Jiang You said with a loving face, "Eat slowly. If it's not enough, we can grill more."
Nasha: "Wow! This is really too happy!"
She eagerly picked up a roasted chicken leg. It had been split open and held open with bamboo sticks, like a bird with its wings spread. The thick meat was spread out into thin slices, making it easy to roast until crispy and cooked. The outer shell was crispy, while retaining the juiciness of the interior to the utmost.
Coupled with Jiang You's specialty seasoning, Naxia ate with her mouth full of oil without even raising her head. She completely turned a deaf ear to the rumors in the city and national affairs that other people at the table were talking about, and didn't listen at all.
"Wow! This is so delicious! Can we have more chicken legs next time?" Nasha asked.
Jiang You laughed and said, "Okay, next time we'll order a whole batch of chicken legs from Uncle Wolf."
Nasha became visibly happy.
-------
Early in the morning, Jiangyou got up early, took the purse full of dividends, accounts and purchase lists, borrowed a mule from Jericho, and staggered to Axe's mansion.
Last night she had sent Holly a message through her contact book that she would be visiting him today. When she arrived at the Axe mansion, Holly came out to greet her with his butler and bodyguards.
"Hey, has the security around you been strengthened?" Jiang You jumped lightly from the mule's back and asked curiously.
"The city has been a bit restless lately," Holly said with a stiff smile. "Our caravan was robbed once, and we suffered considerable losses."
"Oh!" Jiang You said sympathetically, "That's terrible, but I have good news today."
It was indeed good news. When they sat down in Holly's study and Jiang You took out the purse containing 26 gold coins and detailed accounts, Holly's eyes widened.
"T-So much?!" He was overjoyed, his airs as the head of the family instantly washed away by pure joy. "Great! Our family is saved!"
Jiang You: “…” There’s no need to be so exaggerated.
"These gold coins are a lot for ordinary people, but they shouldn't be much for the Ax family?" Jiang You asked doubtfully.
"Well, that's how it should be, but we were robbed a few days ago and lost a large batch of goods and a large sum of money that was intended to pay the harvesters... I should have said before that the Axe family's funds are constantly circulating. This time, we lost ten gold coins. It may not seem like a lot, but it has disrupted our capital flow.
"I urgently transferred funds from other places, but the transfer takes time. The workers haven't received their wages for several days and are almost exhausted." Holly sniffed excitedly, "So this wave of dividends is really a lifesaver for me!"
"Hey, everyone should help each other! If you hadn't invested in the raw materials, I'd have had to spend a lot more money and effort to open this shop." Jiang You also said with emotion, "They say those who plant trees will enjoy the shade. I think it's okay to plant trees and enjoy the shade yourself. The good deeds you sow will always be rewarded in various ways."
"That makes sense." Holly took a quick glance at the account and accepted it. He picked up Jiang You's purchase order and said, "Well, are these the goods you need this time?"
"Yes," Jiang You smiled, "I plan to purchase part of it myself, and you can consider investing in the rest. If you have any large backlogs of goods on hand, I'm also willing to take them."
Holly scratched his head. "Most of the fruit we just harvested was looted, so we don't have a problem with overstocking... This time, we'll just follow your purchase order."
"Okay! By the way, I recently received a royal sign from His Majesty the King. I plan to further expand the brewing workshop and develop more businesses." Jiang You's eyes sparkled as he moved closer to Holly. "Are you interested in deepening our cooperation?"
"Yes!" Holly's attitude was obviously much more positive. "Please be sure to tell me in detail!"
So, Jiangyou chatted with him for a long time, and Holly's eyes lit up as he listened. He nodded continuously, and followed Jiangyou's words with full hope and imagination for the future.
"Okay," he said finally, "let's give it a try."
-------
Jiangyou negotiated the deal, and returned to the workshop happily but tiredly with a pile of goods in the carriage kindly provided by Holly.
Jericho's mule trotted along beside the carriage. As soon as the carriage stopped in front of the workshop, it walked obediently into the yard and into the stable to stay close to Diego.
Jiang You: “…” What a smart mule!
The Hafu driver quickly unloaded all the goods at the door, waved his hat politely to Jiangyou, and drove away quickly. Jiangyou looked at the bean bag on the ground, then at the closed door, and sighed heavily.
——Whether to carry these heavy objects out the back door or to reluctantly open the front door, that was the question.
Considering that the store was about to open for business, Jiangyou still chose to open the store.
Squeak——
A sharp, teeth-grinding sound was heard, and a bony claw reached in from the slightly open door and shook the deformed wooden door desperately.
The old wooden door stuck in the door frame finally loosened. After a few harsh creaks and bangs, the troublesome wooden door finally swung open inward.
She sighed slowly, bent down, picked up the two bags of soybeans she had just thrown on the ground because they were in the way, and walked into the house with a grunt, "Andre, Jericho, Nasha! Come and help me move the things~ The goods are piled at the door~!"
The black-haired knight took the bag from her hand deftly and said, "Okay, leave it to me."
He carried one bag of beans on his shoulder and another under his arm and walked easily to the storage room.
Naxia obediently handed over a glass of mint sparkling water: "Manager, please take a rest and quench your thirst~"
Jiang You smiled happily, took the sparkling water, pulled out a chair and sat down happily, then drew out a mint green soul fire and started to inhale it.
——Ah, it’s so refreshing.
Looking at her companions busy moving goods, she couldn't help but recall the past month since she traveled through time, her pupils blazing brightly: "A lot has happened in this month!"
She has an industry to rely on, trustworthy companions, and has set long-term goals. She is full of hope!
If there were more wonderful stories to listen to and more delicious soul fire to eat, life would be more perfect!
