Chapter 512: This is all thanks to Lord Kira!
In the office, Kira wore a pair of light gold thin-framed glasses without lenses. On the left end of the glasses, a low-key, luxurious and meaningful silver chain hung down along his handsome and elegant face, complementing his bright red hair.
At this moment, Kira's brows were slightly frowned, his lips were lightly pursed, and his expression was extremely serious, just like a senior scholar who was trying to solve a difficult problem but was stuck and had no clue.
On the table in front of him was a pile of important information that he had collected and recorded during his personal visits to various parts of the city in the past few days. Each piece of white paper as big as A4 paper was densely written on, and the total stacked together was five centimeters thick.
This pile of information, taller than his glasses, detailed the situation of every restaurant in the town: which restaurant used magic in cooking and how proficient the chefs were in magic; which restaurant used magic in producing ingredients and where they were produced; which restaurant used magic in decorating and how much money was spent on the design; the size of the restaurant, its income, and how much tax it paid...
The situations of more than 300 restaurants are all recorded clearly!
"I went to this store last time and the environment was not very good. I need to find someone to check its food safety!"
"The service provided by the lady boss of this restaurant is very good. As a diner from Ishgar, I can deeply feel the unique cultural customs and leopard print style of the Western Continent. We can give them a place in this competition!"
" I haven't . I'll go check them out in person after work!"
“This one…”
Just when Kira was busy and exhausted with the development of the catering business in this town, a loud shout from someone who could no longer bear it rang in his ears.
"That's almost enough you bastard!!"
The girl in the black tights, Heine, has lost her original cold and aloof attitude after spending some time with Kira, and has completely turned into a complaining machine around Kira.
"It's been a whole week!! This week you've been reading food newspapers and magazines during work hours every day, and you didn't care about other work at all. Is there anyone like you who works as a mayor's assistant?!"
Kira's brows furrowed even more, and he impatiently used his little finger to pick at his ears, which were uncomfortable from being yelled at. He took out a handful of earwax and flicked it gently, sighing helplessly: "Why can't you understand? I'm assessing merchants for the 'food competition' that will be held in the town in a few days!"
"As the mayor, I must personally take the lead in promoting the economic development of the town and the traditional culture. Otherwise, wouldn't I be sorry for the trust that Sister Irene has placed in me?"
Bang!
With a slight sound, a handful of yellowish-white earwax fell on the girl's delicate face full of collagen, instantly destroying her pure clean beauty.
"But there has never been any 'food contest' in this town before!! You insisted on holding it after seeing the 'competent eating contest' in the news!!"
Heine immediately roared in anger again, "You are doing this just for fun, and you are ignoring the real work!!!"
"Also, how many times have I told you to call me 'Lady Irene'?!"
Most importantly, Lady Irene doesn't trust you! !
Kira turned a deaf ear to Heine's roar. He had long been accustomed to the other party's behavior of being angry and outspoken but unable to beat him, so he snorted with disdain and sneered: "Why should I listen to you? I am the younger brother that Sister Irene recognized herself as!"
"It's working hours now!!"
Just as he finished speaking, the clock struck twelve again.
Ding! Ding! Ding! …
"Listen, what a beautiful and melodious voice..."
Heine was so angry that his face turned red and his chest ached. Facing Kira's arrogant expression, he couldn't utter a word.
She always felt like this guy's workday went by faster and faster, especially when she was about to gain the upper hand in an argument between them, then it would be time to get off work and the bell would ring.
"What the hell is going on?! Could it be that this guy's poor lifestyle has made my perception of time dull without me noticing ?"
Thinking of this, Heine's face immediately turned from red to white. "If I become useless, I will be abandoned by Lady Irene at any time..."
Kira blinked in surprise, wondering why the girl suddenly became so depressed.
"Isn't it just that the clock hit me in the face ? Is it that embarrassing? Never mind. I won't mess up the time on the wall clock next time..."
After making up his mind, Kira no longer cared, waved his hand, stood up and walked out.
"Get off work! Let's go find something to eat!"
Slacking off at work and being decisive after get off work, the life of the mayor's assistant is so compact and fulfilling!
…
Ten minutes later, Kira arrived at the restaurant he had decided to check out earlier.
"Boss, serve all your most expensive dishes!"
Kira's tone was very impolite, acting like a nouveau riche. If someone who didn't know him heard this way of ordering food, they would just think he was a rich man who was used to extravagance.
But the owner of this store is different.
As soon as the fat boss saw Kira's appearance, he immediately greeted him with a flattering look on his face: "Master Kira, you are finally here? I have been waiting for you for a long time!"
"Um!"
Kira responded coldly, then took out a black notebook and an office pen from his pocket, put on a very professional look, raised his eyes on his nose, and said again, "Serve all your most famous dishes!"
"As the general manager of the 'Food Contest' event, I am here today to rate and score your restaurant for selection in the elimination rounds!"
The news of holding a "food contest" was released a week ago, and before that, Kira had openly carried out inspections of restaurants in various parts of the town. After so many days of fermentation, the news that "Assistant Mayor and event director Kira Hopelet will inspect restaurants one by one" has spread throughout the town.
At this time, the owners of these restaurants were all eagerly waiting in their stores, waiting for Kira to come and taste the food and rate and score it, so that they could satisfy his stomach and become famous in the subsequent competition and win the sign of "No. 1 Restaurant" in the town.
Hearing the expected words, the fat boss immediately became excited, and his greasy and fat pig face was almost a CD City legend: "Yes! Yes! It will be ready soon!!"
"Thank you for your help."
Kira nodded to the boss, then took out a light, shrunken wallet from his pocket in front of him, pretending to return the money, and asked hypocritically, "By the way, how much is this table?"
The moment Kira took out his wallet, the fat boss's rat-like eyes narrowed, and his sight fell on the shrunken wallet in Kira's hand. He frowned and showed displeasure. He stretched out his fat hand and pushed Kira's wallet back: "Mr. Kira, this is too polite! How can we accept your money?"
Kira was furious: "What did you say?! Am I the kind of person who eats without paying?"
You are so awesome!!
The fat boss complained in his heart: Which restaurant in the town doesn’t know that Uncle Kira took advantage of the elimination round to eat for free? ? ! I heard that those restaurants that stupidly collected money were eliminated. Either the environment was not good or the ingredients were problematic. The ratings were so low! If I hadn’t received the news early, I might have fallen for this kid!
"No! No!! Of course not!!!"
The fat boss waved his hands in panic, "Kira is a good-looking man with both money and noble character. He is a role model for our entire town. How could he eat without paying?!!"
"It's just that cooperating with Lady Irene to host the event is the duty of us citizens. We absolutely cannot accept it!"
"Besides, being praised by Lady Irene is something we can brag about for the rest of our lives for diligent and honest merchants like us!"
He did not speak against his conscience. Those who run restaurants are also businessmen, and most businessmen have no conscience.
Kira hesitated for a few seconds, thinking again and again, and felt that the other party's words were sincere and logical. Even though he was an unparalleled eloquence, he couldn't bring himself to refute. He could only nod regretfully and put the wallet back: "You have a point. I was not thoughtful this time!"
"As expected... Only if there are more restaurants like yours, this town can develop better!!"
The fat boss nodded like a chicken pecking at rice: "It all depends on the wise leadership of Lord Kira!"
"Just one or two small restaurants, they are nothing compared to you and Lady Irene!"
