Chapter 1704 - I Have A Friend Who Wants To Know...
A Stay-at-home Dad’s Restaurant In An Alternate World
As the new product for this morning, the mutton soup had garnered a lot of attention from the customers.
However, eating mutton was not something in trend in Chaos City. Most people could not stand the rank odor, much less have it in soup, which was the most difficult cooking method to get rid of the smell.
However, Mag was a miracle worker who made them enjoy pigâs stomach, tripe, and duck intestine. Therefore, most people ordered a bowl of mutton soup to try. There were also many who werenât in a rush to order the new dish. They wanted to look at the mutton soup others had ordered before deciding.
âHehe, Bro, judging from the way you walk, you must have done a lot of naughty things last night, right?â Randy asked Vicennio with a sly smile.
âDonât even talk about it. Every day, I can only walk out of the room with the help of the wall. Itâs not something I can talk about,â Vicennio said with a sigh.
âLife is tough.â Randy laughed.
âYeah. When can I see the end to these days? I have to walk down every street to collect rent one by one every day, and the moment I reach home, I will be pulled to bed. Money is just a figure. I feel that my life is very empty.â Vicennio looked up melancholically.
Randyâs smile froze. He looked at Vicennioâs face, and felt like giving him a punch. He hesitated for a while, and softly said, âBro, I have a friend who wants to find a rich woman like your wife. Where can he find one?â
Vicennio looked at Randy, and seriously said, âBro, let me give your friend some advice. Young people should work hard and create things for themselves. Donât be like me. I can only lie aimlessly on a pile of money. Iâve lost my goals and my soul. A life like this is not happy at all.â
âItâs alright. He doesnât need a soul or any goals. Besides, heâs very happy, and he could also make the older sisters happy with him.â Randy waved his hand to dismiss Vicennioâs advice, and looked at him with anticipation as he said, âJust tell me where to look for rich older sisters like your wife.â
Vicennio looked at Randy questioningly, and asked, âThat friend of yours that you are referring to⦠isnât you, right?
Randyâs face flushed red. He didnât expect to be found out. Could he have expressed his intentions too obviously?
However, Randyâs mind was set after meeting Vicennioâs gaze. He openly said, âThatâs right. I donât want to work hard. I want to lead a life of collecting rent every day and returning home at night to roll in the deep. Isnât such a life the final goal for working hard?â
Vicennio looked at Randy silently for a while before saying, âBut Bro, your body⦠I donât think you would meet the requirements of my wifeâs friends.â
Randy raised his brow. He looked at the thin Vicennio, and then at himself.
Although Randy was also thin, at least he had more energy and spirit compared to Vicennio. He couldnât tell where he was lacking.
âDonât look at me right now. Back then, I was a hunk with eight packs, and could go up to seven times a night. I was so muscular I was equivalent to two of you,â Vicennio lamented with a melancholic expression.
Randyâs eyes opened wide. He sized Vicennio up again. Why couldnât he tell that Vicennio used to be a muscular hunk? What happened to him over the past two years?
Vicennio patted Randyâs shoulder, and sincerely said, âBro, you should just work hard. With your stature, I presume you wonât even be able to last half a month.â
âAlright, Bro. I will tell that to my friend.â Randy swallowed as he nodded.
He thought of the lady boss during that rainy night. Compared to those young ladies, she really didnât seem like the type that could be easily satisfied every day.

âYour mutton soup, please enjoy.â Miya walked over with a tray, and placed four bowls of mutton soup and the dipping sauce on Harrisonâs table before turning to walk towards the kitchen.
The mutton soup was milky white, and there was half a bowl of mutton in the soup. There was fresh green coriander sprinkled on top, and the moment the bowls were placed on the table, the rich fragrance of the mutton soup surged over together with the steam.
âSmells fantastic!â Harrison could not help but praise when he smelled the fragrance of the mutton. He was already growing impatient as he watched the table next to theirs drink the soup.
âYes. It doesnât have the rank odor at all, only a very rich fragrance of the bone soup. Boss Mag is really incredible,â Gjerj complimented.
Meanwhile, Leidenâs and Mooreâs eyes also widened when they saw the mutton soup before them, and they could not help but swallow their saliva.
âHow exactly is this mutton soup made? How can the color look so good? It doesnât even have a tiny bit of impurity in it. How can the mutton be kept so perfect after it was used to make such a rich soup?â Leiden exclaimed to himself. This mutton soup was beyond his understanding even though he spent his entire life with mutton. He also admitted that he could not even make a bowl of soup like that, and could not remove the rank odor of mutton so well. It was only fragrant, not gamey.
Moore was a little dazed. He thought that his fatherâs mutton was the best in the world, and even the mutton soup his father made was better than others. However, this exquisite bowl of mutton soup proved otherwise.
âYour mutton soup.â Leiden quickly regained his senses. He quickly shifted the two bowls of mutton soup that were placed in front of them back to Harrisonâs side. That beautiful lady had to have served them to the wrong person.
âI ordered it specially for you. Good things got to be shared.â Harrison pushed the two bowls of mutton soup back to the two orcs with a chuckle, and said, âThis is an unspoken rule in Mamy Restaurant. The person who requested to share a table must treat the other party to a dish. Boss Mag launched the new mutton soup today. Itâs such a cold day, and a bowl of warm soup is just right to warm up your body.â
âThis⦠is too expensive. We canât accept it.â Leiden pushed the two bowls of mutton soup back to Harrison. One bowl of mutton soup cost 500 copper coins. They didnât even know each other. How could he just accept such a gift?
Moore swallowed his saliva at the side. However, he did not say anything, as his father was right. They could not accept it.
âThe mutton soupâs already served. Itâs such a waste not to eat it. Look, we canât have two bowls of soup each, right?â Harrison held Leidenâs hand with a smile, and said, âBro, I think weâre rather fated to meet. When we share tables again next time, you can treat me to something else.â
Leiden looked at Harrisonâs kind smile and hesitated for a while. He decided not to reject further, and embarrassedly said, âThen we will accept your kind offer, sir. When we come here again next time and have money with us, weâll treat you.â
âThatâs a promise.â Harrison snapped his finger, and quickly scooped up a spoonful of milky white mutton soup. He blew on it a little before putting it into his mouth.
