Chapter 105 – A Waitress Outfit
“Yes, the sequence of order as well as the table numbers are all correct . It’s both efficient and effective, well done . ” Mike smiled nodding his head in approval . Abbé Mia’s ability was quite astonishing, but he was very satisfied with this unexpected surprise . This was exactly the type of staff he wanted .
“Sister Mia is so awesome!” Amy clapped her hands and looked up at Abbé Mia with adoration .
“No… not really . ” Abbé Mia waved her hands awkwardly, but behind her red faced embarrassment, was a rarely seen glow of happiness .
Her memory had always been good, but it had always been ridiculed by the other back kitchen staff as a useless skill . She really hadn’t expected to be adored by Amy for it, nor to have Mike’s admiration . She had never experienced this kind of praise and appreciation before in her life, this boosted her confidence a little .
“Aside from memory skills, this job is really taxing on the body . Otherwise we won’t be able to complete a whole day’s work . Do you think you can take it?” Mike looked at Abbé Mia, who looked thin as a board under the oversized clothes, when he helped her in just now he estimated that she probably weight less than 50 kilos .
“Of course I can!” Abbé Mia puffed up her chest, somehow lifting the front of loose shirt by quite a lot . It looked like she didn’t mean to do it, since she quickly turned red and deflated (literally) almost immediately . She said hurriedly, “I may look thin, but I’m really strong . I can move a whole side of pork by myself in the kitchen, and often worked non-stop from morning till night . My strength is much better than any of the other male kitchen hands . ”
Mike pointed at one of the wooden tables and said, “Alright, please pick up this table up . ” The table was made of thick hardwood weighing at least 120 kilos . Personally, he would have trouble moving it anywhere .
“Like this?” Abbé Mia walked over, placed her hands alongside the table and nonchalantly lifted it 20 centimetres off the floor, she looked over at Mike inquiringly . It did not looked like she was at all bothered by the weight .
Mike frowned, this girl looked so thin and weak, but her true strength was quite frightening . If she could lift that table so casually, this means she would be able to lift things over 120 kilos quite easily . He nodded, “Good . ”
It looked like her small and thin figure was the result from lack of food, if he properly nurture her, she would probably be able to grow up well .
“Wow! Sister Mia, you’re really strong, ah . ” Amy stared at Abbé Mia as she replaced the table to its original place .
Abbé Mia gave an embarrassed smile, in her previous workplace, the others staff gave her the nickname of Monster Girl, which naturally made her unhappy . To think that Amy actually liked this side of her so much .
Mike was also quite satisfied with Abbé Mia, excellent memory skill, strong; this girl fitted most closely to the ideal he had in mind of a helpful staff . He looked at the still slightly awkward Abbé Mia, and smiled, “I hope to give everyone who steps into this restaurant a warm and comfortable experience . The philosophy of this restaurant is: Courtesy, Distance and Equality . There’s no need to revere any one customer, we don’t have to treat them like gods . As providers of customer service, we will maintain a certain distance from the customers and present a courteous to all who walks in so that they may feel comfortable and welcomed . We treat all our customers with equal courtesy as a sign of our respect for them . Now, shall we see a sincere smile from you?”
“Courtesy, distance and equality . ” the previously anxious Abbé Mia listened to Mike and sank into a thoughtful silence .
Equality . This was a concept that had nothing to do with her . Ever since she was born, she had lived with inequality all her life . In her previous restaurant, orders that came from elves were always given a priority, followed by demons, trolls and finally humans . Halfbreeds were not allowed to even set foot through their doors . There was no equality at all .
However, here was Mike telling her to treat every customer with equal courtesy . If she could receive other mixed bloods like her as customers, how wonderful would that be? When she thought of this, a smile of pure joy bloomed on Abbé Mia’s face .
Like a small white flower blooming on dry and dusty land, she was neither delicate nor frail, but bloomed with a clean beauty that purified all that gazed upon her .
“If you want to, come and start working tomorrow . ” Mike said sincerely to Abbé Mia .
Abbe Mia’s smile showed a little fang that was quite cute . The little fanged smiled had a curious appeal to it, and it made people feel oddly comfortable . This kind of innate skill was quite rare and as a bonus, Mike didn’t even need to warn her to keep from forming personal relationships with customers .
“Really?” Abbe Mia’s looked like she couldn’t quite believe her ears .
“En, of course, as for wages . We’ll consider the first month as a trial period so your wage will start at 4,500 copper coins . Lunch will be provided, but you’re on your own for breakfast and dinner . We also don’t provide lodging here . I know that you’re going through some tough circumstances, so I’m prepared to give you half a month’s salary in advance so that you can find a decent place to stay and take care of your two other meals . ” Mike nodded as he looked at Abbé Mia in her grey and greasy clothes covered in random coloured patches . He muttered to himself for a while before nodding decisively, “The restaurant will also provide two sets of work clothes, I’ll bring them to you in a bit . ”
“This…” Abbe Mia’s mouth dropped opened . To have such windfall dropped on her head so suddenly, she felt almost faint . All she did was memorized information on a few pieces of paper, lifted one table, and smiled once, and was immediately hired by Mike . Moreover, her salary will be 4,500 copper coins, in the previous restaurant, a months work would only earn her 800 copper coins, moreover, neither food nor lodging was provided .
“[System], show me some waitress outfit, I need to give my new waitress some presentable clothes . ” Mike mentally sent a message to the [System] .
“The [System] is an honourable and decent [System], we are not providers of female clothing . ” [System] said severely .
“I will need two sets of everything, including two pairs of shoes . I’ll pay cash . ” Mike also did not minced words .
The [System] sank into silence, then asked probingly, “What… of the rolling shutters, would you be willing to pay a slightly higher price?”
“I’m just buying things from you, if I were to buy two sets of everything, would you give me a cheaper price? Say, 5 gold?” Mike countered .
“Solo transaction has been completed, 6 gold have been successfully deducted . Automatic rolling shutters are now under construction, it will be completed in 10 minutes . If you spend a total of 10 gold coins, two full sets outfit would be included . ”
“If it’s 10 gold, that should be reasonable enough . ” Mike was tempted to ridicule the [System] for breaking their impasse first . However, after considering it, an automatic rolling shutters plus two sets of outfit and two pairs of shoes, all for 10 gold coins . This was was all quite reasonable .
Moreover, the [System] was going to install the shutter which certainly made everything much simpler for him .
Once the transaction had been agreed on, the [System’s] mood seemed to have improved . It went on to say, “What sort of female outfit would the host like? The [System] offers regular uniforms, Office Lady uniforms, frocks, garters, hoop skirts… sailor outfits, maid costumes, middle schooler swimsuits…”
“Wait a second, you seemed to have included a whole bunch of weird stuff there . I say, [System], could you please be a bit more decent! What’s all these sailor outfits and middle schooler swimsuits things…” Mike curled his lip in disgust, before saying neutrally, “I want to look at waitress outfits . ”
