Chapter 830 - But Doesn“t Big Sister Aisha Live in the Restaurant?
Sally looked at Mag with a hesitant expression, and said, “The place I’m currently living at is quite good, and I have a part-time job at Geya Hotel…”
“Don’t be in a rush to turn me down. I have something else that I have to announce. During your three-month probation period, you two have completed your roles to an exceptional standard, providing the highest level of service to all of our customers. As such, I’ve decided to raise your wages to 10,000 copper coins per month, and that will only be the wages you receive from the restaurant.
“Miya is currently also the manager of the ice cream shop, so she’ll receive 10,000 additional copper coins a month. On top of that, I’ve noticed that Aisha has been heading over to the ice cream shop regularly to help out. If you’d like, you can quit your job at the hotel and help out Miya at the ice cream shop during your spare time. In that case, you’ll receive an additional 5,000 copper coins as wages per month,” Mag said with a smile.
“2… 20,000 copper coins?” Yabemiya’s mouth gaped open even more as she stared at Mag with astonishment in her eyes. Three months ago, she had just been kicked out of a restaurant’s kitchen and almost starved to death on the streets, yet Mag was now offering her 20,000 copper coins a month!
She had never owned that much money at once, and she’d only ever seen so much money in one place in the coin register of Mamy Restaurant, yet this was now about to become her monthly wage?
Yabemiya was feeling a little light-headed.
“15,000 copper coins a month…” Sally’s eyes also lit up slightly. Back when she’d first decided to become an employee at Mamy Restaurant, she had obviously been entranced by the food, but her other objective was to save up enough money so she could make a trip around the entire continent.
During the past three months, she’d saved up a few thousand copper coins. She was still quite far away from having enough money to fund her trip around the entire continent, but her goals had already changed anyway. She didn’t want to tour the entire continent anymore. Instead, she wanted to remain in Chaos City and help those in need here with her income.
Babla hesitated momentarily, but she still couldn’t help but ask, “What about me?”
After coming to this world, she had gradually understood the purpose of money and just how useful it was. After losing her status as a princess, everything required money. Thankfully, Mag hadn’t kicked her out during this time. Otherwise, she would most likely have to live on the streets.
Mag turned to Babla with a smile, and said, “You’ve been working for less than a month here, but you’ve displayed outstanding skills and service as well. Hence, after this month, your monthly wage will rise from 3,000 to 5,000 copper coins, and after you’ve worked for three months here, you’ll also be receiving 10,000 copper coins per month.”
Mag had no qualms about acknowledging Babla’s skills. Aside from the fact that she was a little pampered and conceited when she’d first arrived, she’d grown accustomed to her role very quickly, and was significantly boosting the efficiency of the restaurant’s operation.
Babla’s eyes also lit up with excitement upon hearing this. She was aware of the gap between herself and Sally and Yabemiya, so the prospect of earning the same wage as them after working for three months was certainly far from unacceptable to her. Even so, she still repressed the smile that was inching its way onto her face as she calmly said, “Alright.”
“Boss, I feel like I don’t deserve that much money for what I do. I’m volunteering to run the ice cream shop, so I shouldn’t receive any additional wages for that…” Yabemiya shook her head emphatically as she looked at Mag. Back at her last job, she had worked non-stop for 16 hours per day, doing all types of heavy manual labor, so working at Mamy Restaurant and the ice cream shop was like heaven for her.
Sally was also looking at Mag with an uncertain expression. She was naturally aware that the wages Mag was offering were far above that of the standard for restaurant service staff in the Aden Square.
Mag shook his head with a smile as he looked at everyone with a gentle expression. “The value that you bring to the restaurant far exceeds the wages that I’m offering you. Also, just because you enjoy your job doesn’t mean I can take advantage of you and use you as free labor. If you don’t accept your wages for running the ice cream shop, I’ll be left feeling very guilty.”
“That’s right, all of the customers say that the big sisters bring beautiful scenery to the restaurant…” Amy swallowed her mouthful of fried rice before saying, “Even I look more adorable next to all of you.”
Amy’s words drew a burst of laughter from everyone.
“Thank you, Boss.” Yabemiya stood up and bowed deeply to Mag. She then raised her head, looked at Mag’s warm smiling face, and returned a vibrant smile of her own.
Meeting Mag was the luckiest thing that had ever happened to her. Mag was the one who had taken her from the brink of death and carried her to nothing less than paradise.
“Thank you,” Sally also turned to Mag with a grateful expression, and said, “I’m willing to accept a part-time role at the ice cream shop.”
Even though the owner of Geya Hotel was a very good person, she still decided to quit that job and accept this new job opportunity. She had to earn more money in order to achieve her new objectives.
“Alright, I’ll take you three over to the employee dormitory this afternoon. You can use the spare time during the afternoon to transport all of your belongings to your new home. The dormitory is quite well furnished, and you can move in right away,” Mag said with a nod.
“But doesn’t Big Sister Aisha live in the restaurant?” Aisha suddenly asked with a curious look on her face, “This morning…”
Sally immediately blushed as she lowered her head, her eyes suddenly seemingly transfixed on the fried rice before her.
Mag raised an eyebrow and hurriedly plucked a piece of chicken into Amy’s bowl as he said, “Amy, you should taste this chicken…”
…
Due to the limited serving capacity of the restaurant, many excited customers could only leave in disappointment. There were many regular customers among them, and even Mobai could only heave a forlorn sigh at the sight of the two long lines gathered outside the restaurant.
“Boss Mag’s restaurant is becoming more and more popular; we’ll have to turn up really early if we want to enjoy a meal there.” Xixi sighed as she stood in front of the magic potion shop, and then waved a hand toward Lulu with a smile as she urged, “Let’s have some food as well; it’s not going to be as good as Boss Mag’s food, though.”
A bashful smile appeared on Lulu’s face as he untied his blacksmith’s apron, and then made his way over to Xixi as he said in a gentle voice, “As long as it’s cooked by you, I’m willing to eat it for the rest of my life.”
“I suddenly don’t feel hungry anymore.” Mobai heaved a faint sigh before turning around and re-entering his forge.
…
Following the conclusion of the lunch service, Mag led Sally and the others to the employee’s dormitory.
Taking into consideration the fact that the spare space on the first floor and the empty half of the second floor could be used for other purposes in the future, the staircase leading up the dormitory was situated outside the backdoor of the ice cream shop. A luxurious carved spiral staircase had been built there, leading straight up to the door of the second floor.
After entering through the door, everyone was greeted by the sight of a spacious living room paved with superb wooden floor panels. There was a large open kitchen and a dining room with a beautiful four-person table, and the dormitory was also complete with a bathroom, a shower, and a small balcony. Most of the dormitory had been constructed from wood, creating an elegant and refined effect.
“Wow!”
The three girls’ eyes immediately lit up as soon as they took in the dormitory before them. Regardless of which angle they appraised the room from, it was like a beautiful work of art.
Mag was very pleased with their reactions, and he smiled as he said, “I prepared three rooms for you three; you can choose which one you’d like to live in based on the style that you prefer.”
