Suddenly, water flooded the whole room, from the floor to the ceiling, but it had magically avoided Mag, Sally, and Yabemiya.
“You can restore the room, right?” Mag asked the system.
“Of course. 10,000 gold coins.”
Mag lifted an eyebrow. “Zero down payment?”
“You wish! Cash in full!”
“But you let me pay by installments for that most expensive Range Rover the other day.”
“That’s because you couldn’t afford to pay in full.”
“Then I guess I won’t buy expensive things from you anymore,” Mag said calmly.
“Wait! Do you want luxury bags, furs, cars and whatnot? No interest for six months and zero down payment!” It sounded a little anxious.
Mag’s eyes widened. “Cars?”
“Cars’ interior decoration.”
“I don’t even have a car!” Mag snapped. All the tables and paintings must have been ruined…
No! The restaurant… Yabemiya looked very worried.
After a while, the water disappeared as suddenly as it had appeared.
Everything stayed in the same position, only shinier.
Mag and Yabemiya couldn’t believe their eyes. The tables and chairs were gleaming, and the air had bee fresh and moist.
“Unbelievable!” Yabemiya was extremely amazed. She touched a table. “It’s dry!”
Mag walked up to the wall and put his hand on a painting. It’s dry and undamaged.
Every corner was so clean and dry, and everything couldn’t be any cleaner. It was hard to imagine that the room had been flooded seconds ago.
Sanitation is important when it es to restaurants, and she will make the cleaning work real easy! Mag looked at Sally, his eyes shining with excitement.
Sally was a little worried that her magic might have scared Mag and Yabemiya. She put down her hand, and said, “The water only washed away the dirt and grease. It didn’t damage anything, and it made the moisture content ideal in the tables and chairs, so—”
“You can e work tonight if you want,” Mag interrupted. “Your salary is the same as Miya’s: 4,000 copper coins a month, and you can get 1,200 copper coins’ worth of food for free every day if you eat here.”
Sally’s face lit up in surprise. My current job only gets me 600 copper coins each month, but now I get to eat Yangzhou fried rice and tofu pudding for free!
It’s a dream e true for me. Or is it a dream? She pinched her thigh without them noticing it to make sure she wasn’t dreaming.
“Thank you! But… you can just pay me with a bowl of tofu pudding,” Sally said. “I don’t think I deserve this high salary.”
Mag shook his head with a smile. “You totally deserve it.” Her cleaning skills are reason enough for me to hire her. Besides, she’ll be better at collecting money and clearing tables after Yabemiya teaches her.
Sally smiled.
“Put down the dishes and get some rest. I’ll find some clothes for you. If you have any questions, just ask Miya.” Mag took the bag in the basket and went upstairs.
Sally watched Mag leave. She still had qualms about this; she felt she had got the better end of this worker-employer relationship.
“Congratulations! You magic is so amazing!” Yabemiya said with admiration. She’s so beautiful and powerful, but I’m just strong.
Sally also looked admiringly at Yabemiya. “Thank you! I think you’re amazing. You can handle so many things by yourself, and you do them so orderly. Every customer likes you. I don’t think I can do it.”
They smiled. They were impressive in each other’s eyes.
“Can you teach me how to clear tables?” Sally asked.
“It’s very easy, actually…” Yabemiya helped Sally take the dishes from the tray and taught her the relevant skills and tricks.
Sally listened and watched attentively. Yabemiya answered in detail every question she asked. The half-dragon didn’t feel inferior anymore.
Mag put the bag on the table. “System, show me the qipaos you have.”
