Reincarnation Of Audemars - Chapter 134

It’s a good thing my study is within the living space of the Castle and all I could now be to plop myself in the cosy corner and then relax while I take some notes of the cities around Ingmery.

I feel like I am a frog under a coconut husk and oblivious to the happenings outside. Right now I had acquired the knowledge of 87 Towns on the Northern, Eastern and Western part and now I have the knowledge of 3 other cities.

First off I drew a flowchart stating the number of weapons and armours bought from Aermagh. This would indicate the approximate number of soldiers that existed in the city. Since I was given 2 kinds of helmets to forge, it would be safe to say that there are 2 types of the army and it is about 3k strong.

Next would be Northrup, Emerald City and Westinghouse. I just hope Blake and Bruce would be able to travel there and make a round trip before ending up back here in Ingmery.

The map showing the 87 Towns were far and wide. Each connecting towns had a network between one another and it was like a spider net type of road network. Not only I was surprised by its complexity and ease to travel from one city to another, but the ease of warping to one another is also ideal.

I was at Blake’s when the idea came into my mind. Why risk lives and properties when once could warp and reach the outskirts of town on just under a minute? WHY DIDN’T I THINK OF THAT BEFORE..?? Maybe the idea of having the advertisement for our brand name was the first step and I have forgotten that everybody has a system of their own.

Not for adventuring but for their own trade and profession. I’m sure Blake, Bruce and many others out there have a system. If they used their system to gather the order sales and hang around the town for some time, I’m sure they don’t need to spend any more time on the road.

Furthermore, I think I would design them a vest that anyone would be able to distinguish them from afar. A bright yellow vest with red lettering would be visible from afar and that would the most ideal. Behind is the name “BEAUTY WORLD” while the front would the Macleod’s Lucky Badge emblem on the left-hand side.

Just get one piece of vest and then duplicate as many as 60. The emblem would be the same badge as the adventurers are using right now. I looked at the time and decided to leave after mid-afternoon snacks as the adventurers are already on their way.

I went to the kitchen and saw two variants of fillings for the tacos. One is halved and the other is a quarter. They asked me which one is suitable and I said the quarter one is better because at least the fillings are stuffed sparingly and advised them not to use too much cheese.

The best way is to ready the stuffings and spread the cheese just before filling them in. The cheese would be spread out in lines and it was a thin spread and most importantly each taco would have a hint taste of cheese.

I showed them how to perform it as they got the rest of the dressings ready before they scooped a bit of filling inside it. The spread of cheese was made in a zigzag manner from the corner of the serving pan and once done the interns started filling the stuffing.

“Alright, there is 5 minutes before the time to prepare 150 of these tacos. Come on, test your ability to finish everything within 5 minutes. Time is of the essence. The King’s men are coming back to have their afternoon snack and they are hungry.”

I spread out these instructions and see how fast they could prepare the necessary dish and place them on a serving platter. Just like any culinary in a hotel where you would be ending up rushing your work to finish it as timely as possible. These are only 28 people in the house and also the second day of their work.

“Right on time…!!” I whooped when the interns just completed arranging the last piece of taco on the platter when I saw the first member entering the Castle gates. “Alright, go ahead and serve the snacks up. Reserve some for yourselves too.” I instructed as I walked to the courtyard and welcomed them back.

“You seemed happy today… Is there anything that you wanted to share with me?” Patricia saw my beaming smiling face as she sat down in the courtyard after washing up as she waits for the afternoon snack to be served.

“Beauty World would resume its operations as per normal in the next few days time. All I need is to get a new set of uniform and we are good to go.” I soon explained to Patricia of my plans and she seemed delighted to know that there is a way around it and all of us seemed to have missed it.

“Whatever it is, I guessed its much better this way since Beauty World had been operational for more than 3 months already and I am sure a lot of people knows our branding.” Patricia agrees at my plans as it seems the most feasible right now. Safety is assured and deliverance of goods would be timely.

Mid-afternoon snacks were served and everyone was happily munching away as they tasted for the very first time a type of snack the was used to be called shawarma in other countries, burrito in some others or simply meat wraps for me. It is just food with a lot of variants to call it. As long as it is edible and delish, no one is going to complain about it, right? Hah hah… Good food, no complains.

Another day, another accomplishments as the cuisine that was prepared were deemed to be favourable among the members. Next cuisine would be baked, braised black pepper beef with broccoli, shitake mushrooms, green peas, onion rings and potato wedges. It is like a whole dish in one sitting. It’s called the beefsteak or affectionately known as “bistik”

….

After the mud afternoon snack, I head down to the Atelier and chose a bright fluorescent yellow coloured vest and with red trimmings at the sides. Then I got their assistant to make some embroidery at the back of the vest using the company’s name and underneath it a large logo as well.

At least town folks would be able to recognise the corporate colours, the company’s name as well as the logo if they are illiterate. At least moving around in these would make them as a walking advertising billboard.

After the assistants had embroidered the vest with the intended name and design, I paid for it and placed it into my storage while I make my way to the Castle and then to my study where I immediately meditate and enter the Realm of Mind.

I pinned the Macleod’s Lucky Badge on the left-hand side of the vest and I made a single duplication and it came out just nice. A shiny badge was embedded on the left-hand side of the vest, about three times larger design than the original pin-up badge and it looked like a school vest. Hah hah…

“I just hope that this new vest with this new Macleod’s Lucky Badge would have an added advantage to the lucky wearer, not just for adventurers alone.” I then made 60 duplications for the Beauty World vest as it automatically stored into my storage bag.

I logged off meditative state and returned to the real world and went to the kitchen to see how the progress for the dinner would be and it was wonderful. There was a bit of rice left and I told them to make prepare 5 kg of rice to feed the hungry adventures.

I did a bit of probe with the interns and sound that they all had worked as cooks before coming in to learn a few more cuisines to upgrade themselves. “Ahh… This makes my job prettier easier. In this way, your internship would be able to advance faster in the sense that I would just present the ingredients and tell you the name of the menu and then it would be a matter of the first-time demonstration if you are unsure of its procedures.”

I explained as the rest of the interns understood what I’m trying to imply to them since I am making the kitchen and the internships as a training ground for them.

The braised black pepper beef and broccoli were being prepared in the cauldron first as some ingredients need to be cooked medium rare while others would be completely raw. After the process, it was laid out in the baking pans and was baked in the earthen oven for approximately 30 to 45 mins.

While waiting for the dinner to be ready inside the oven, I showed them how to make butterfly tempura prawns and showed them the vein of the prawn that needs to be removed. I explained that a small quantity is fine to eat but if in excess it would have an adverse effect. It was actually not a vein but much like the intestinal tract.

I added a bit of bluff because I prefer to devein my shrimps because it makes them cleaner. Furthermore, the prawns head have these sharp thingy at the sides and it needs to be cut away leaving it intact and the legs would be cut off with a pair of scissors too.

It looks rather clean rather than to deal with those legs and so on. I don’t prefer to eat so many shrimps myself no matter how delectable they are… Its is because they are considered as UNDERWATER COCKROACHES… Eeewww…
