Delbon blinked, and the thick dark circles under his eyes were almost connected together.
The member of the 'Clock Tower' stationed in the 'Ground Investigation Bureau' subconsciously wanted to refute.
However, he thought about it seriously.
I think Jason's words seem to make sense.
You know, using serious language to attract people, and then an unexpected turn occurs.
It will definitely impress.
It will also make people think that the person who posted this message is very interesting.
Delbon is well aware of how important an interesting start is to a stranger.
What's more, it can also show an interesting soul!
Maybe I should give it a try
After two seconds of serious thinking, Delbon took out his notepad, and carefully recorded Jason's previous words—as a full member of the 'Clock Tower', Delbon has cultivated Good recording habits.
Jason looked at Delbon who was recording and didn't interrupt him.
Not only because what he just said was sincere, not teasing.
Also because Tonio walked out of the kitchen again.
As before, the metal cart squeaked, squeaked.
"Please use!"
After serving the 'Warrior Pot' to the dining table, Tonio said after bowing with chef's etiquette.
However, this time, his eyes did not deflect.
He watched Jason pick up the pot with a smile on his face, watched Jason open his mouth, and watched the food in the 'Warrior Pot' decrease to the extent visible to the naked eye, accompanied by bursts of swallowing and chewing sounds .
Sweat broke out on the chef's forehead.
It's not that Tonio has never seen someone who can finish a 'Warrior Pot' alone.
In fact, he had seen many such people.
Because of the special physique of the 'mysterious people', they can eat much more than normal people, especially in the 'Bronze Unyielding' camp, the stronger the warriors and knights, the more they can eat.
But even those high-ranking knights who are fighting in battle will slow down when facing the second portion after eating the first portion of the 'Warrior Pot'.
Stomach capacity is limited!
But Master Jason in front of him, faced with the second portion of the 'Warrior Pot', he still devoured it at a speed... completely surpassing the 'mysterious side person' he knew!
Worthy of being the second 'ship cutter'!
Thinking in his heart, Tonio turned and walked towards the kitchen.
He didn't forget that Jason just said two pots.
The sound of swallowing and chewing in his ears did not affect Delbon who had just eaten. After recording Jason's words, he suddenly had a burst of inspiration and had some ideas of his own.
Without hesitation, Delbon began to summarize his thoughts and record them.
Undoubtedly this was quite a waste of time.
However, His Excellency Jason is eating, so it is not a waste.
With such thoughts in mind, Delbon was immersed in his own world, unaware of the passage of time.
When the member of the 'Clock Tower' stationed in the 'Ground Investigation Bureau' came back to his senses, he realized that His Excellency Jason was still eating.
"Haven't you finished eating yet?"
Delbon asked with a smile at Tonio.
He didn't feel any strangeness.
After all, this is a hundred catties of 'warrior pot'!
Being able to eat the next serving is enough to surprise people. How about a second serving
That is really beyond the imagination of ordinary people.
So 'chewing slowly' is normal in Delbon's view.
As for the third
Delbon never thought that anyone could eat three servings of 'Warrior Pot', not even His Excellency Jason.
But soon, Delbon realized that something was wrong.
Why is Master Jason's chewing speed a bit fast
There is also something wrong with Tonio's face.
Slightly pale and sweating.
It seems to consume a lot of physical strength.
And what can make Tonio, who is a chef, consume a lot of energy
Cook!
I can't think of anything else except this Delbon.
But Delbon clearly knew that with Tonio's strength, even if one person presided over a banquet for a hundred people, he would not feel any fatigue, and even if there were twice as many people, there would be no problem.
And now Tonio's face was full of exhaustion!
How much did Master Jason eat? !
Delbon, who reacted quickly, was holding the wallet in his pocket, and asked Tonio with his eyes in fear.
As a member of the 'Clock Tower' in the 'Ground Investigation Bureau', Delbon has a generous salary.
Not only can he get one from the 'Clock Tower' every week, but the 'Ground Investigation Bureau' will not treat him badly.
But as a 'magician', he needs to buy magic materials and a considerable number of books.
The former unit price is expensive.
the latter
It's not expensive, but there are new episodes every month.
Accumulated over time, it is not a small expense.
Especially some commemorative editions and special episodes cost more money.
Therefore, he does not have much money to spare.
Moonlight is his label.
Just like being a single nobleman.
In other words, the two were born together.
no!
I can't go on like this anymore!
I still need a whole family to restrain myself!
Unconsciously, Delbon's thoughts were a little erratic, but his eyes did not leave his friend.
Under Delbon's watchful eyes, Tonio raised his hand and made a 'two' number.
"Two copies?"
"This is the third copy?"
Delbon breathed a sigh of relief.
Only the third copy, okay, okay!
He can afford the price.
only…
Delbon looked at his friend suspiciously. It was nothing more than three 'warrior pots'. How could he be so tired
Could it be
Suddenly, Delbon thought of something.
He showed a manly smile to his friend.
He finally knew why his friend prepared fresh oysters.
"Tonio, unnecessary consumption is useless!"
"Do you need me to give you a master-level recommended book list?"
"For beginners, "The Hypnotist's Tale" I was chasing before is very good and suitable for beginners."
"It just so happens that I have volumes 1-60 in my collection, as well as 2 volumes for the special edition and 1 volume for the commemorative edition!"
"If you want to see it, I'll lend it to you."
Delbon stood up, put his arms around Tonio's shoulders, lowered his voice and spoke on his own, with an inexplicable pride unconsciously showing on his face.
In such a state, Delbon didn't see his friend's face becoming ugly at all.
"I do not need."
"I have decided to dedicate my life to cooking."
Tonio said righteously.
"Isn't this too monotonous?"
"Life should be colorful, and there must be color!"
"And the book is officially the best choice!"
Delbon, who simply thought that his friend was embarrassed, began to persuade his friend, as if he wanted to bring him back on the right track, and then they slapped their foreheads and said: "Yes, yes, I still have recommendations! The Story of the Hypnotist" is also the classic choice for beginners: "Biography of Brother Cheng"!"
"20 copies!"
Tonio interrupted Delbon's words.
"What?"
Delbon, who was thinking about what books to recommend to his friends, did not recover at all.
"I said Master Jason ate 20 servings."
Tonio reiterated again.
"impossible!"
"How could it be 20 copies?!"
Delbon blurted out almost subconsciously, and then Tonio nodded and corrected his words: "Well, I made a mistake, including the current one is 21 copies!"
"Each copy of 'Warrior Pot' is priced at 3,500 yuan, and the total of 21 copies is 73,500."
"Cash? Credit card?"
Tonio looked at Delbon seriously.
Delbon's sweat began to overflow, and a feeling of weakness pervaded the whole body.
"How many?"
he asked with trembling lips.
"A total of 73,500 yuan."
"Your share is considered to be my invitation to you, and it has been exempted."
Tonio added.
73500!
The 'Clock Tower' subsidy is 6000 per month.
The monthly salary of the 'Ground Investigation Bureau' is 6250 (basic 3750, meal allowance 2000, transportation 500).
One meal ate up half a year's salary
Equivalent to 20 sets of "Hypnotist Stories"!
Or 10 complete sets of "Biography of Brother Cheng"!
It is also equivalent to 3 sets of Collector's Edition "Bright Bible"!
When this number appeared in Delbon's ears again, Delbon's brain couldn't help calculating. The more he calculated, the more Delbon trembled, especially when he thought of the money he could have bought so many books. After a meal, Delbon's heart was about to bleed.
He is so sorry!
Why talk so much about promising Jason to invite Jason to dinner
Almost subconsciously, Delbon looked at the two stacks of banknotes and the check in the corner of the table.
I don't know if I can...
"You said invite me to dinner."
"And these?"
"be mine."
Just when Delbon was about to speak, Jason put down the 'warrior pot' and put two stacks of banknotes and checks into his pocket.
In this regard, Delbon grinned wryly, but did not have any refutation.
Just like Jason said, these are Jason's.
Because, if it wasn't for Jason, he would have returned the two stacks of banknotes and the check to the two young men, and would have been deceived by them.
"You deserve it."
Delbon replied, without waiting for Jason to speak, Delbon continued: "Your Excellency Jason, please go ahead, I have something to talk to Tonio, I will go back to John in the suburbs to find you."
Jason, who originally planned to ask Delbon if he needed to borrow money, looked at Delbon's appearance, but finally did not speak.
"Thank you for the hospitality."
Jason said solemnly to Tonio.
He was satisfied with the other party's cooking skills, especially the weight of the 'Warrior Pot', which made him even more happy.
"Welcome to come again next time."
Tonio was equally happy.
Although he was exhausted at this time, when he met a diner like Jason, he felt that his heart was full of energy—by cooking for Jason, he found his own shortcomings.
physical strength!
His physical strength is too bad!
And this is what he has been looking for, but neglected.
Now, he finally found it.
As long as this point is strengthened, Tonio is sure to take his cooking skills to the next level.
Therefore, Tonio sent Jason outside the restaurant, watched Jason leave, and then turned back.
At this time, Delbon stood there with a serious face.
After Jason left, he was finally able to calmly face the biggest dilemma in his life.
"Tonio, are we friends?"
Delbon asked.
"yes."
"Still one of the few friends."
"But the brothers clearly settle accounts."
Tonio replied equally seriously.
"Can I pay on credit?"
Delbon asked seriously again.
"Small business, no credit."
Tonio replied with an unchanged expression.
"Do you accept mortgage?"
"I put my most expensive set of "Inspector" as collateral, rest assured that I will..."
"Go wash the dishes."
Delbon's words were interrupted, and Tonio looked at his friend and said lightly.
Then, ignoring his friend, he walked straight to the kitchen.
call!
Delbon took a deep breath, and immediately followed his friend into the kitchen.
Wash the dishes, wash the dishes!
At least he doesn't have to be separated from his Inspector.
Of course, some questions still need to be asked.
"How long do I need to wash?"
"Two years."
"What?"
"Aren't we friends?"
"It is precisely because we are friends that I allow you to pay back the meal in this way, and I have calculated it for you based on an hourly salary that is higher than the market rate. If you are not satisfied, you can borrow it from Mr. Jason..."
"No, I'm going to wash the dishes."
Tonio glanced at his friend in surprise, as if he didn't understand why his friend was unwilling to borrow money.
"Men are romantic creatures. They would rather grit their teeth and hold on than to borrow. I am a real man and I choose my romance."
With words like an oath, Delbon walked into the kitchen with arrogance, like a soldier going to the battlefield.
Tonio watched from behind, smiled, and shook his head slightly.
Why did he become friends with Delbon
Because, he understands the 'romantic' that Delbon said.
Or…
Just stick to it.
"I have to step up my cooking skills."
Tonio muttered to himself.
For persistence, everyone has their own understanding.
Delbon is like this.
Tonio is like this.
Jason
No exception.
After a good meal at Tonio's Restaurant, he started to look for other food on the 'Street of Memories'.
The entire 'Memory Street' is naturally more than one restaurant in Tonio.
At least on the way here, Jason saw two.
One of these two is similar to a tavern, and the other is a barbecue restaurant.
Jason first visited the barbecue restaurant.
The ingredients and ingredients are very good and very fresh, but for Jason who has just tasted Tonio's craftsmanship, the craftsmanship here is a bit average.
After eating a stack of banknotes, Jason turned and walked out of the barbecue shop, and came to the door of the tavern.
Even with the closed door, he could still smell the strong smell of wine and the smell of food mixed in it.
Pubs generally have appetizers.
For the wine, Jason kept his cool.
And appetizers
Jason liked it.
But just as Jason put his hand on the door and was about to push it open, the noise from behind the tavern door suddenly disappeared.
Quiet!
The sudden silence is in stark contrast to the atmosphere of people coming and going on the Street of Memories.
A strange atmosphere began to pervade.
The corner of Jason's mouth curled up, and he exerted a slight force on his palm.
Squeak.
The door is open.
