"Manager~ Betty~ Mo... Professor Moriarty..." The door was pushed open, and Ronna bounded in like a cheerful little bird. However, seeing Moriarty sitting and sipping tea, she imdiately shrank back a little.
"Eh~ Ronna, let your sister give you a hug." Betty walked over happily, picked up Ronna, spun her around, and then, still smiling, took the braided flowers from Ronna before setting her down.
"Ronna, today we shall learn about dieval combat thods as well as ’The Art of War by Sun Tzu’ that the manager recomnded to . I’ve read it, and it seems very suitable for you." Moriarty didn’t fault Ronna for being late. In fact, he had an abundance of free ti recently, so waiting a little longer wasn’t a problem.
"Um... Okay." Ronna obediently walked over and sat down, listening intently to Moriarty’s lecture.
"Manager, Ronna is here." Betty entered the kitchen and inford Chen Ze.
"Alright, I heard. Don’t disturb them; let Professor Moriarty teach Ronna." Chen Ze nodded. Ronna’s voice was so loud, he had naturally heard her, so now he needed to quickly make a pizza for Ronna—but this ti without Sun Mushrooms.
"The eel pizza last ti wasn’t very successful either. It seems we still need to use so normal ingredients, bacon, and... Xuanwei ham." Chen Ze stroked his chin, feeling that this idea was a good one since ham is quite delicious, especially since Xuanwei ham and Jinhua ham are both very famous in Huaxia.
But speaking of ham...
"By the way, Betty, let ask you a riddle, haha." Chen Ze called Betty over.
"Eh? Sure, go ahead and ask, Manager." Betty nodded.
"Among tal, wood, water, fire, and earth, whose leg is the longest?" Chen Ze recalled this old brain teaser, which now seed more like a la joke.
"tal, wood... Wood, I guess, the legs under wood are the longest." Betty pondered seriously for a mont and then provided her answer.
"Wrong, it’s fire because ham (fire leg) is long, hahaha~" Chen Ze laughed heartily, then gradually stopped amidst Betty’s disgusted expression.
*cough cough*... "Go outside, I’m going to make pizza for Ronna." Chen Ze waved his hand and then began to focus on his pizza.
"Yikes~ when did the manager start telling la jokes, it’s scary!" Betty rubbed her arms; she felt a chill as soon as that answer to the riddle was given.
Betty glanced at the restaurant where Moriarty was lecturing Ronna on cavalry battle thods, including how to use the strategy of besieging Wei to rescue Zhao, compelling enemies from other castles to co to the rescue so they could be annihilated in one fell swoop.
Ronna was listening with a serious face, occasionally suggesting strategies, causing Betty to break out in a cold sweat. However, Moriarty seed very pleased, continuously praising Ronna as a clever and good child.
"Am I misunderstanding what a good child is supposed to be?" Betty was at a loss for words. Since when did scattering caltrops on the ground or setting fire to a city qualify soone as a good child?
Betty always felt that Ronna, pure as a blank slate, was being led astray by Moriarty’s dark teachings.
"Manager... Betty, quick, get a coke, I’m about to die of thirst, and rember to add ice." Alisa walked in with a look of exhaustion.
"Of course, Miss Alisa, just a mont." Betty imdiately dashed into the kitchen; Alisa was a partner and probably ca to pay Betty.
Alisa sat down on a chair and looked around; then she saw Moriarty and Ronna sitting there chatting.
Like father, like daughter...
Miss Alisa’s expression was a bit gloomy as she again thought of her father, regretting that her own success was still a long way off.
"Alisa~ here’s your cola with ice," Betty almost bounced out, making Alisa worry that her cola would spill.
"Thank you, Betty, here’s your bonus." Alisa took out a bag, and as Betty had helped boost sandwich sales, her bonus had gone up again.
"Eh? How much is it?" Betty received it with a dazed look, having never used a Magic Space Bag before.
"This much." Alisa smiled as she held up a finger.
"A hundred Gold Coins?" Betty was a bit surprised.
"No, a thousand Gold Coins." Alisa slowly took a sip of her cola and let out a contented sigh.
"One... one thousand..." Betty was stunned, and then the whole Magic Capital seed to quiver.
"Betty?? Are you okay?" Alisa looked at Betty with concern, regretting ntioning a thousand Gold Coins and fearing she may have given Betty a shock.
"Phew... I’m fine..." Betty took two deep breaths, suppressing the urge to rush in and laugh wildly. She was worried that if she gave in, she might not be able to resist going in, patting Chen Ze on the shoulder, and laughing like crazy, which could lead her to die of laughter.
"Good to hear you’re okay. Oh, could you please have the store manager bring a serving of Ice Chestnut Rice, so recomnded snacks, and a dessert?" Alisa nodded in relief, then rembered she was still hungry.
"Alright, just wait a mont." Betty bounced back inside.
"Manager~ One Ice Chestnut Rice, add recomnded snacks, and a dessert, please." Chen Ze eyed Betty with a vacant look, wondering what was going on with her.
She was slapping his shoulder like crazy, looking as smug as if she had won five million.
"Okay, and if you slap my shoulder again, I’ll put you in the oven for a bit." Chen Ze glanced at the ham, which had trembled off the table due to her shaking hands, and his mouth twitched.
"I’m sorry! I’m out of here!" Betty imdiately scurried away.
"Alisa ah... her favorite dessert is Buffet, right? As for snacks, let’s go with a new version of the chive pockets, I think it should suit Alisa’s taste pretty well." Chen Ze quickly decided what to make.
Chen Ze first put the pizza in the oven and set the ti and temperature, then started preparing Alisa’s dishes.
"Betty, what are you planning to do with the money you save?" Alisa asked Betty while sipping on her cola.
"Umm... eat a Starry Sky Cake!" Betty wiped her drool; she had been longing for that beautifully designed Starry Sky Cake for quite a while.
"Eh? Starry Sky Cake, that does sound nice, but I think if you could get a large quantity of cola from the manager, your cut might be even higher." Alisa set down her glass. This cola paired with those burgers and sandwiches was simply divine.
"Really? I’ll ask the manager." Betty scratched her head.
