"Mr. Chao Ke, thank you for your cooperation. I apologize for our previous reckless behavior." Ellie thanked Chao Ke solemnly, then calmly withdrew her hand.

"It's okay, it's okay. Jia Ziwei will be a legally operated restaurant, now and in the future."

"Oh!"

The door of the restaurant was pushed open roughly at this moment!

"Fontaine Shadow Chaser Court! Listen up, all the fools inside, let go of Senior Ellie!"

"Fontaine Guard! Stop your illegal actions immediately! Release the Fontaine public officials!"

"..."

After the announcement, there was a long silence between the two sides.

The group of policemen were also stunned when they saw Meilushieli standing next to Chao Ke in perfect condition.

"Senior Ellie, you weren't kidnapped?"

"Ah? No, no! You all misunderstood. Just now, Mr. Chao Ke took the initiative to invite me to the restaurant kitchen to inspect it, but the invitation process was a bit tough..."

Ellie hurriedly explained to her companion.

Looking at the group of policemen blocking the entrance of the restaurant, Chao Ke held his forehead helplessly and said, "Can you please make way for me? You guys blocking the entrance like this will affect the business of the restaurant."

"Ah? Okay, okay."

"I'm sorry, Mr. Chao Ke."

After seeing that Ellie was fine, the policemen lost their momentum and opened the door of the restaurant with embarrassment on their faces.

Ignoring these cops for the time being, Chao Ke walked out of the restaurant quickly and signaled to the spies from the mansion on the street that he was fine, in case the news that the restaurant was surrounded by cops alerted his sister and caused the situation to escalate further.

After reporting his situation, Chao Ke returned to the restaurant and deliberately closed the door.

"Well, gentlemen, it's time for us to have a conversation about the issues that you all came to us with such enthusiasm."

"Hehe..." The cops, knowing they were in the wrong, stood on both sides, their faces filled with embarrassment, not knowing how to explain.

Spying on legally operated shops is a shady business, but the restaurant owner is not angry, and he actively invites you to the kitchen for inspection. Coupled with what you just said when you broke into the store, the shameless police officers now want to find a crack in the ground to crawl into.

"I guess everyone is so enthusiastic about coming to Jiaziwei Restaurant. It must be a group dinner, right?"

Hearing Chao Ke's suggestion, one of the guards immediately responded, "Mr. Owner, you are right. We are here for a dinner party. Do you have any recommendations?"

"Haha! I was wondering, how could a store run by a 'legal' citizen like me be inspected by the police officer? It just so happens that our Jia Ziwei restaurant has just opened and has group meal discounts!"

"Oh? That's really delightful."

A hint of a son-in-law smile appeared on Chao Ke's lips. It's too early for you to be happy.

"On the first day of opening, my restaurant will offer a 10% discount to all group dining customers."

"Thank you for your care, Mr. Shopkeeper. How much is the discount for this 10 Kun discount?"

"Oh, 10 Kun Discount means 25% off! Also, the minimum order for group meals is 20!"

The cops' mouths twitched. What the hell, 25% off, and a minimum order of 20. There were only 18 of them...

This boss is definitely retaliating.

But the cops also understand that this level of retaliation is at best a warning. If it is really taken too far, today's situation can be brought up in diplomatic occasions.

A man from the special patrol team gritted his teeth and stood up.

"Manager, could you please give us a set meal for twenty people?"

There was no other way. Since he was the one who planned today's action, he could just consider it as a way to avoid disaster. At least the consequences were within his tolerance.

Chapter 21 Borrowing People

Since there were not many burgers left in the warming cabinet, the team leader Dan Chao Ke had to spend some time preparing.

Of course, this period of time can be considered very fast compared to the formal Fontaine Restaurant.

Ten minutes later, Chao Ke brought twenty prepared single-person meal sets to the dining entrance and let the cops take them one by one.

"Crack!"

The door of the restaurant was opened by two people. One of them stood at the door of the restaurant panting, his face full of sweat stains left by running wildly. Although the other person's breathing was not disordered, his face was also red due to the high-intensity running.

Seeing the two men, the police present hurriedly stood up and saluted.

"Mr. Donatello and Mr. Grisetti? Are you here for the dinner too?" Chao Ke looked at the two men with some confusion.

"Huh?" The two people who rushed over after receiving the notification from the security team members were confused when they saw the scene which was completely different from what they had imagined.

The security team member quickly winked at the two of them, indicating that they should talk later.

Donatello reacted quickly and replied on the spot: "Of course, brother Chao Ke, didn't we make an agreement at the opera house? I will come to support you when your restaurant opens!"

"Oh! So these police officers were called by you, Brother Donatello. No wonder so many police officers suddenly came to the restaurant. I thought I was being treated unfairly because I am a Liyue person doing business in Fontaine."

Donatello's mouth twitched. It was such a big pot. "How could it be? Brother Chao Ke, you think too much."

Chao Ke did not make things difficult for Donatello and the others. The two of them sat down, and there were exactly twenty people in the group.

While the officers were having their meal, a tabloid reporter happened to visit the restaurant.

Looking at the policemen filling the restaurant, the reporter was shocked on the spot, "Big news, big news, so many policemen are here, this restaurant in the Vasari Corridor is really powerful!"

"Crack! Click!"

The reporter quickly pressed the shutter button and took several photos.

"Hey! Wait! We haven't agreed to be interviewed by you yet!"

Among the police officers, Donatello reacted quickly and shouted to the tabloid reporter, while Grizzetti on the side chased after him.

However, the reporter's reaction was not slow either. Years of experience in secret photography had already developed him into a skilled runner. He dodged and moved around the streets with a camera in hand.

Looking at Grisetti who was gradually being left behind, Donatello secretly thought that something was not good.

"Damn it, Grisetti and I have been running all the way, and we are not in good physical condition. Besides, that reporter... seems to be from the Surprise newspaper."

The unscrupulous tabloid headquartered in Gray River only knows how to spread nonsense and rumors. Due to the lack of effective supervision, this photo fell into their hands, and I don't know what kind of story they can make up.

"These reporters in Fontaine really need to be regulated. Don't you think so, Mr. Donatello?" Chao Ke said sarcastically from the side.

Donatello retorted unhappily, "Ha! Who says it's not true? The timing of this reporter's appearance is so coincidental, who knows if he was guided by foreign forces."

After a while, Grizzetti came back panting, "No... I didn't catch him. That reporter was too fast."

After such a thing happened, the police officers no longer had the leisure to savor the meal slowly, and they quickly finished their meal and left. However, Donatello looked at the dim sky outside the window and bought two more hamburger meals, intending to bring one to his wife and daughter.

After sending off the notes, Chao Ke and Louise cleaned up the table together, thus announcing the end of Jia Ziwei's first day of business.

In the restaurant kitchen, Chao Ke sat on a chair and took stock of the gains from the restaurant's first day of business.

Today, a total of 62 Crispy Kun Leg Burgers were made, earning a total of 16758 points of food spirit power and Mora. The bulk of the income was contributed by the cops.

Now that he has the power of the food spirit, Chao Ke plans to enchant a hamburger and place it in the system space in case of emergency.

Taking out a reserved hamburger from the warming cabinet, Chao Ke pointed his palm at the hamburger and activated the devil's power - food enchantment.

[Enchantment of blue quality food for recovery, 1000 food spirit power required, do you want to enchant it? ]

【whether】

"Yes!"

[Ding! Food enchantment completed]

[Extreme Crunchy Kun Leg Fort (Enchanted)]

[Quality: blue]

[Introduction: This is an exquisite work, even the Kitchen God admires it and gives it magical power. ]

[Effect: Restore 36% of the maximum health of the consumed or selected target, and restore an additional 2550 health points]

After putting the crisp Kun Leg Fort, which was still shrouded in a layer of brilliance, into the system space, Chao Ke felt a little more at ease. At least he had one more life-saving item.

After locking the door of Jia Ziwei, Chao Ke returned home.

In the living room, my sister was still in the familiar position looking at the documents. The difference was that this time, what was placed next to her was no longer strong tea, but a cup of coffee.

Chao Ke made himself a pot of tea and sat opposite his sister.

Alechino looked up at Chao Ke and said, "Today's matter was handled well. We did not escalate the situation and we also punished the Fontaine authorities a little."

"Hehe! After all, I want to do legal business for the time being. It's not good to have a bad relationship with the Fontaine officials." Chao Ke answered with a smile, then took a sip of tea.

"Sister, I want to hire a cleaner and cashier in my restaurant, and I want to ask you for two people."

Alechino was stunned. "If it's just cleaning and cashiering, you can go find Catherine. She has a list of retired Fatui, so it will be no problem to use it."

"No! You came to see me specially, is there any extra need that you are not convenient to tell Catherine?" As she said this, Alechino looked up and looked directly at Chao Ke.

"You still understand me, sister."

He exhaled towards Ke Chang and said seriously, "Sister, what I need is not the Fatui, but your people."

Alechino was startled and looked at Chao Ke with serious eyes.

There were a few splashes in the coffee cup, and then they slowly calmed down over time.

After a long moment, Alechino asked.

"Does it require a certain level of combat power or professional skills?"

"Just ordinary people are fine."

Alechino tore a piece of paper from the notebook and wrote two names and an address on it.

"Ashley Chenetsevna", "Boutelle Chenetsevna", address: Fontaine Narbonne...

"These two are orphans raised by Hearth House during the time of the dean. They are the first few hidden leads I developed. Their loyalty has passed the test. The only pity is that their talents and physical fitness are poor."

"Thanks, sis."

Chao Ke picked up the note, wrote down what was on it and then set it on fire.

Watching the ashes of the paper dissipate, Alechino hesitated for a moment, then spoke.

"Let's not talk about the future for now. At least for now, we don't have the need or ability to break with the Ice Queen."
