Chapter 1030 – [Winter of Growth]
Eden’s new school year has dawned. Just like her last year, Eden starts packing her bags, looking forward to meeting her new friends despite her new school year.
While I was taking Eden, I was getting ready to go to work……. Come to think of it, winter vacation went by so quickly. Even though I spent time in another dimension, it feels strangely short.
Are you the absolute ruler of time again?!
Anyway, the new year’s Eden is bigger than before her vacation, so she doesn’t look like an elementary school student anymore. She’s probably enough to eat even if she’s a junior high school student.
“If Eden goes into sports, I think she will be able to sweep all the women’s events.”
“Ah, it’s a foul if a person with special abilities goes out. I can also win the pre-fighting weight class with my bare body, but then I feel sorry for others.”
Learning this ability itself is a merit and a privilege. However, if you do not intend to ridicule those who participate only by training their bodies and working hard, then it is better not to participate.
One of the simple ways to earn money is to become a sports player. I didn’t do it on purpose because if I participated, it would be no different from a foul.
Same with Eden. Later, if Eden goes out, she will be in another sport that has permission to use this ability.
“I’m leaving, and Eden is also leaving, so you guys, Zion and I, take care of the house. Okay?”
“Yes, I understand, Father.”
[Bye!!!!]
After asking the children, Eden and I leave her house.
Eden was excited. School after a long time, and it went up to a new grade.
“Eden, are you excited?”
“Ugh!!!! I wonder who will be in the same class as you!!!!!”
“It’s good to see you excited”
I smiled heartily as I looked at Eden through the rearview mirror. Since he is not afraid of new changes and welcomes them, Eden will surely grow up and grow up later.
Soon after arriving at school, I dropped off Eden. Eden shakes her hand and greets me.
“Dad!!!! Then see you at dinner!!!!”
“Okay Eden, see you later”
I escorted Eden to school and came to the store.
Today, I do business like any other time, but today is a little different. Because today’s ingredients are truffles from the Garden of Eden.
Even though it is sealed, the truffle scent is strong in the car. Thanks to you, business seems to be going well today.
I already made a separate notice on social media……. Oh, by the way, the price is not that expensive. It’s just about 5,000 won more than the original price of the dish.
It seems pretty expensive though, but good truffles sometimes cost hundreds of millions. However, they use such truffle sparingly and even grind it on top as a decoration.
Even just spraying it on it would be 100,000 won. Selling such a dish for only 5,000 won more is rather a bargain. Of course, I have a conscience, so I have no intention of profiting with the level of materials I got for free.
Anyway, I go to the store today, and there are already people waiting. Among them, you can see some familiar faces.
“Oh, hello boss!!! I’m here today!!”
“Hello. But isn’t it hard that you’re here already?”
“If you come later, you have to wait in line for a long time. But it’s a little better because there’s a cafe nearby. You can take a break while drinking coffee.”
As the number of waiting customers increased, we placed chairs in front of our store where customers could sit and rest. And as the floating population increased, shops like cafes began to appear near our shop.
It is proof that I am influencing the commercial district around here. It’s good that the influence of my store is so noticeable that becoming a proud father to Eden is gradually progressing.
“But I heard that today is a truffle dish?”
“Yes, wait a minute. Let me show you.”
I took the truffle out of the car. Despite being in the box, the strong scent of truffles spread like an explosion when the box lid was opened.
Originally, truffles are liked or disliked because of their strong scent. But the truffles from the Garden of Eden had a scent that was both strong and enchanting. Thanks to this, the waiting customers flock here to see the truffles.
“Wow!!! Was this really this big?! Aren’t things like this expensive?”
“It’s almost free because I got it from an acquaintance. It’s so big that I ate it at home, so I brought it to use at the store.”
“Smells really nice… Oh, can I take a picture?”
“Yes, of course”
I put the truffle on for people to take pictures of. When a picture like that goes up on social media, it eventually becomes a publicity for our store.
There’s still quite a bit of time left until the store opens, but what’s the point of leaving customers like that?
Then add cheese and crackers. Truffles and cheese, which smell strongly of each other, go well together, so it’s delicious even if you eat it simply like this. Moreover, the truffle itself has such a strong personality that you have no choice but to add a little or mix it with ingredients with a strong personality.
I brought out light finger food and handed it out to the guests. There’s nothing to drink, but that’s it. You can buy coffee in front of you.
“If you don’t mind, try this. I’m so sorry you had to wait so long.”
“Ah!!! Thank you very much, boss.”
“Did you slice the truffle on the cheese crackers?”
“Yes, it would be better to eat while enjoying the flavor of cheese and the scent of truffle.”
“It will be delicious~”
The response from guests was favorable. In the first place, they lightly hand out dishes that would have cost tens of thousands of won for free, but no one will hate it only if they have a conscience.
I started preparing to open a shop. After cleaning and preparing the ingredients, it was time to open.
“Yes, you’ve waited a long time. Please come in your turn.”
“Oh, I’m tired of waiting”
“Boss, what’s delicious today?”
“Personally, I’d recommend mushroom cream pasta today.”
Today’s dishes contain truffles, so the main menu is pasta or meat. It is used as a sauce, sprinkled on top, or ground and sprinkled.
Honestly, that’s the best way to eat truffles. It’s not that there isn’t a way to enjoy the truffle itself as the main dish, but it’s a bit like that for a local store.
No, it’s not a conglomerate, how do you eat truffles as a main? It’s far better to bring out the flavors of 10 other dishes than to make one such dish.
I take out the truffles for today’s cooking and put them on one side of the kitchen to see them. It’s for taking pictures, and it’s also for filling the store with incense.
“Boss, would you like two of our creamy mushroom pasta and a steak with truffle sauce?”
“Here’s a mushroom risotto and a steak with truffle sauce, please.”
“Yes yes, I understand”
Today’s cooking itself is relatively simple. This is because two of the main menus overlap.
Creamy mushroom pasta and risotto are different only with noodles or rice, but the cooking method itself is similar. The same goes for learning al dente. Thanks to you, I’m a little less busy today.
Since the noodles were already cooked, it didn’t take long to make the pasta. Sprinkle thinly sliced truffle generously over mushroom pasta with truffle oil.
Thanks to the umami of the mushrooms and the flavor and aroma of the truffle, it will be very delicious. I wonder if the amount of truffle that went up is too much, but it’s okay because I sprinkled it as thinly as possible.
“Here’s the 2 mushroom cream pasta you ordered. Steak takes a while, so please be patient.”
“Ah, yes. Thank you.”
“Oppa, it must be so delicious~ Totally amazing!!!”
Take a picture of the dish that came out and taste it while admiring it. A piece of thinly sliced truffle and some pasta. If you eat the two together, the harmony is no joke.
It wasn’t for nothing that today’s main dish was mushroom pasta and risotto. Truffles are mushrooms after all, so they go well with dishes made with the same mushrooms.
People eat deliciously and I cook hard and spend time without hesitation, so time has become break time before I know it. I decided to stop accepting customers and was able to catch my breath only after the last customer left.
“It’s worthwhile”
I am satisfied every time I see sauce or a little leftover plate after emptying it. Traditionally, a chef is most rewarded when his customers eat well.
After cleaning and washing the dishes, I prepared for the afternoon business again. After the afternoon business is over, today’s business is over and I can go home and see Eden, so I feel energized.
I check social media for a while after I finish what I have to do. If you search for our store by tag, reviews of our store come out, and it was fun to see them.
-Wow, sister, where did you eat?
-It must be so delicious, local~
-Give me that many truffles? But the price is 12,000 won?
– There is no such house in my neighborhood.
-Sorry. I wonder where that truffle photo was taken. Location please reply
In a review of our store someone posted, I found a post that felt like a translation at the end. Did a foreigner use a translator app to turn it around? Looking at your ID, you look like someone from Italy.
Italy is also a famous region for truffles. In the first place, Italy itself is also a region where cuisine is developed…. To be honest, if there’s anything I’m good at next to Korean food, it’s Italian food.
In the first playthrough, my girlfriend, Ana, is Italian, so thanks to her, she learned a lot about cooking. I think about it then.
I rested moderately and started business in the afternoon. It is natural that customers flock to the place even in the afternoon, and since time is the hour, there are customers who order drinks.
“Boss, please give me a bottle of Garam”
“Yes, would you like two glasses?”
“Yes, two outlines”
Since Garam was released, Garam has been selling well instead of soju.
Generally, soju sold in stores costs 4,000 won, while Garam costs about 8,000 won. It’s cheaper if you go to the store and buy it. However, the taste is much better, so it was worth paying for it.
Of course, other liquors are also good, but I still smile at the sight of my own liquor being sold.
“Boss, I ate delicious today.”
“Yes, thank you every time. Please come again next time”
“But it’s a bit disappointing…… It’s a bit like this because it closes early.”
“I have no choice but to say that I’m sorry. It’s true that I work hard at the store, but my family is more important. I need time to go in and see my child’s face.”
As I always say, the store is run to be a good father to Eden. But if you can’t pay attention to Eden because you’re running the store, it’s a total turn of events.
Even now, even though it is not a holiday, Eden is taking a break whenever there is a special event. Eden is more important than the store.
“Still, sometimes I want to be there while drinking alcohol with the dishes served here.”
“Hmm……I’ll think about it.”
To be honest, it was a story that came up often. There were quite a few people who said that it was a pity that it closed at 7:00 when a menu that was perfect for snacks came out.
You can go out on your own, but sometimes it’s better to listen to the opinions of customers. Especially in a case like now.
Even if it is not possible to increase business hours, it seems possible to change them. Especially on a Friday, a day called Friday, customers would get drunk, so it wasn’t bad to change the business hours that day.
Roughly from 4 or 5 pm to 12 pm? It seems like it would be fine if I did that.
I decided to think positively about him. I don’t know if I do it every day, but I thought it wouldn’t be bad if I did it for one day a week.
And after finishing the store, I returned home after cleaning and organizing and preparing the dishes for tomorrow.
“Dad~!!! Dad is here Dad!!!!!”
“Have you been home, father. How was your business today?”
[I’m here? How is our farm truffle reaction? Great?]
“Speak slowly, slowly. How should I react if all three of them rush at me like that? I have one mouth.”
Eden is the most welcome, but the other three musketeers in my house are also welcome. The manggung who greets me is also cute. But, Koyang and Yerosto don’t even come out.
I come in pretty early today and have a late dinner together. It’s not good to eat too late, but it’s still good to have a meal with family.
“My daughter ate earlier, so you shouldn’t eat too much.”
“Heyying…”
“……I’ll see you this time.”
“Isn’t it meaningless in the end if you do this every day?”
Still, it is a noisy and friendly dining table. Thanks to that, it seemed that there was no quiet bird in our house.
While eating, I asked what happened to Eden today. Now that the new school year has started and classes have changed, I want to hear your impressions.
“How is Eden? It’s okay since I’m going up to the 2nd grade?”
“Uh, the homeroom teacher seems like a nice person, and it’s nice to be in the same class as Dahee and Jongseong. The other kids are in different classes, but I’m in the same class as the kids I know.”
“It’s nice to be in the same class as some of my best friends. Any other problems?”
“Problem, um…”
At that time, Eden stretched out her words as if thinking about something. Seeing her expression darken slightly, she seems to be up to something.
“There’s a bad boy in my class, and I’m thinking about what to do with him.”
“Bad boy?”
Apparently, Eden already has a kid like Iljin in her class. Well, when I went to school, being in the same class as those kids was inevitable.
Originally, it was said that when five people gather, one of them has trash. It’s strange that more people gathered than that, but not a single trashy guy.
“He’s quite big, so he’ll start a fight with other kids and just do that. I’m looking at it for now, but if there’s a problem, I want to deal with it.”
“How are you going to handle it?”
“I don’t know.
I’d rather be someone who crossed the line, but I don’t know how to deal with a child in the same class. If the opponent was a non-human animal, it is an Eden that can be ground and used as fertilizer, but against humans it is still not enough.
Dad should be well informed here.
“Listen carefully, Eden. Such children usually do not listen because they suppress it in some way.
“Then~?”
“The advantage of human beings is that they form a society.
I am also the Great Demon King in charge of society, and I have the power to erase civilized society in Hankyu, but I think that I will not be able to live alone without human society.
Of course, as long as there is Shion, I’m good…. Without something to admire Shion, life would be devastated. In the end, a society of transcendental and transcendental species and Zion and humans is necessary.
And no one can ignore that society. Affected in any way, in any direction.
It was the same no matter how much a child was, even if it was a guy like Iljin.
“Ah, yes. You mean to use the public opinion of the majority?”
“Uh, um. Something like that.”
“My daughter is already showing signs of playing with the press.”
“I don’t think that part resembles you.”
“I thought of a good way!!! Kwon Soon-wook, you’re dead now!!!”
Eden smiled broadly at the thought of the wife of the troubled child she would deal with the next time they met.
But I think I’ve seen that laugh a lot. The appearance itself resembles Shion, but rather than Shion…
“The smile you make when you think of your opponent’s destruction is just like yours.”
“……I can’t deny it.”
After all, Eden was me and Zion’s daughter.
