Chapter 1875 - How's Your Fat Eagle?

The free strategy of Smore Pancakes had indeed caused quite a commotion. The customers crowded all over the stall, and created a messy scene.

Looking at the crowd, Smore’s smile slowly widened. This was the scene and effect that he wanted.

In sharp contrast with it was the Mamy Restaurant’s booth across it.

Half of the customers watching had gone away, and the booth was less crowded.

The customers who were lining up weren’t affected, because many of them had been lining up for a while, and after being brainwashed repeatedly by octopus series dishes’ recordings, they just wanted to try the taste of the octopus balls.

Besides, lining up here felt good. There was a comfortable distance between people, and the line was moving forward in an orderly manner.

Even though the line was long, it was moving at a very balanced and steady pace. It made people calm down miraculously, and enjoy the process of waiting for good food.

A young girl turned to look towards the Smore Pancakes, and curiously asked, “Mama, why are they all going over there? Is there something even nicer there?”

“No, Baby. They simply thought they got a good bargain.” The young mother shook her head with a smile before meaningfully saying, “But look at their behavior and manners, Baby. They are fighting like barbarians just for a greasy pancake that only costs three copper coins.”

“Three copper coins…” The little girl touched her pocket, and took out five copper coins. “Even I have them.”

The mother smiled, and touched the little girl’s head. “Yes. Even you can fork out that money, so why do we have to forgo our respectability to fight for a free one. If you really want to eat it, we can use money to buy one when it is less crowded, and eat it respectfully.”

“What about the octopus balls?” The little girl retracted her gaze, and turned to look at the giant screen.

“A small helping of octopus balls costs 40 copper coins.”

“It costs so much… I don’t have enough money.” The little girl felt a little bothered, and looked at her dejectedly. “Why can’t he make it free?”

“Ptui! What the heck is this?! It almost broke my teeth. There’s indeed nothing good when it’s free!” Right then, an orc threw the pancake that he had only taken one bite of into the trash can, and spat disdainfully before walking away.

“I feel that this pancake isn’t as nice as it usually is? Neither the texture nor the taste is good.”

“It’s free anyway. As long as it is edible. There’s no way to make us pay for it.”

Two people who just received the pancakes ate them disdainfully while walking ahead.

The mother gently said to the little girl, “Look, a free thing may not be good, and it usually won’t be treasured, and will be attacked by those people just because it is free. Do you think it will affect the mood of those people who like pancakes?”

The little girl nodded, slightly confused.

“In fact, accepting payment is a two-way choice. See how interesting this uncle is. He set the rules so we can line up leisurely without having to fight like barbarians, and at the same time, we can watch him cook. We use a reasonable price to exchange for delicious food. I suppose this is what the Delicacy Extravaganza should be like,” the young mother continued.

“Mm-hmm. I got it now. If this uncle’s octopus balls are nice, I will return to buy them again.” The little girl nodded.

“Even if you don’t have the money now, you can come back to buy them when you have the money in the future. Good food will never be eliminated.” The mother held the little girl’s hands, looked into her eyes, and seriously said, “But you have to remember to never become people like them. You will definitely miss out on something precious if your gaze is attracted by that free stuff. You might never be able to find the precious stuff again when you go back to look for it.”

“Yup.” The little girl nodded. She looked at Mag, who was frying the stir-fried octopus in XO sauce, and gulped before asking, “Then, can we have a helping of that too? Will we ever have a chance to eat it again if we miss it?”

“Erm…” The mother was stunned before she smiled. “Alright, let’s order a small helping of that too.”

***

Mag actually didn’t mind the opposite booth giving away the free pancakes. The pancake was the first food he tasted after coming to this world. This thing… was perhaps suitable for grinding his teeth?

As for whether it would be better for grinding teeth after the Smore Pancakes deep-fried it, it would have to be proven by those customers who fought hard for it.

After those burly men, who were watching for fun, left, it instead gave his target audience, the housewives, more space to watch the recordings and learn.

Mag only cared to implement his rules and let his customers eat delicious food, and then exchange for matching rewards.

Of course, he had been very fair about his rewards.

The tentacle of a Great Old One was an existence that was even more valuable than giant dragon’s meat. It was fair enough that his customers could eat them for only 40 copper coins.

“President, do we have to interfere with Smore Pancakes?” the staff member asked Robert.

“Get a few staff members to maintain order. We can’t allow any accidents to happen,” Robert said with a frown. He knew that the Smore Pancakes’ behavior harmed the other vendors to a certain extent, but the Food Association wouldn’t interfere with the vendors’ operation modes.

“This bastard is so shameless. He actually made them free of charge!”

“Yes. He’s even more shameless than Mamy Restaurant. At least Mamy Restaurant wins with its flavor.”

“Are we going to follow suit?”

“Follow your a*s. The cost price of one roast pig is 800, and yet you want me to make them for free? Do you know how expensive pork is right now?!”

Smore’s smile got brighter, but the neighboring booths’ bosses were miserable.

Although Mamy Restaurant attracted many customers, there were still many other customers who went to the other booths.

Now, the Smore Pancakes’ operation was very devastating to the other booths as the customers left without looking at them after getting a big pancake.

However, the bosses were also tempted when they looked at the crowd in front of the Smore Pancakes’ booth.

***

Amy, who was about to go have a good meal with Krassu, was stopped by Abraham.

Amy looked at Abraham, and curiously asked, “It’s you, Fat Uncle; how’s your fat eagle?”

“Erm… Although it was a little difficult on it, it managed to fly back.” Abraham was a little embarrassed. That fat eagle of his was very embarrassing. But, he soon smiled. “Little Boss, are you going to have your meal? I know where the best food in Rodu is. Should I bring you there?”

“Really?” Amy’s eyes lit up, and she immediately nodded. “Alright, we will let you bring us there.”

With a smile, Abraham continued, “Hehe. Furthermore, Little Boss has performed spectacularly in the past two days, and made me earn two billion copper coins. I have decided to give you half of them.”
