Chapter.2 Friends and Soju

“Actually, Mr. Ment provided me with the money needed to open a store.”

“What does that mean that Mr. Knoll was trying to open a store without any money?”

“No, that’s not it. He and I both had no idea about business, so we were frustrated after being scammed by con artists. I lost all the money I had saved while working as a mercenary. “Looking back, I wonder what I was thinking when I decided to start a store… I was so naive.”

Sagira. It was a rage no matter which city I went to. Even when I opened a restaurant, there were several scammers who tried to get in touch with me. Of course, I gave all the con artists who tried to scam me a taste of hell.

“My husband is a person with strong pride. I said I would give up my dream after being scammed. He said he wanted to live a peaceful life just for the two of us, so he quit his mercenary job, which required long periods of time away from each other, and tried to take over his father’s butcher job… but when that failed due to a strange scam, he stopped smiling. I lost and acted like I had lost hope in life. So I had no choice but to get help from Mr. Ment. It has to be that way… .”

Mr. Laine said that and looked at Mr. Ment. It was clearly not affection in those eyes. What it contains is gratitude and respect.

Apparently that’s it.

“I understand roughly what’s going on. That was the reason. Then we need to clear up the misunderstanding. Would you both like to come to our restaurant until dinner? You’ve already reached a point where you can’t deceive any more, right? So, I will call Mr. Knoll too. “We will help you resolve the matter amicably.”

Efforts to avoid butcher shops from closing and to save regular customers.

It’s time to show off your cooking skills for that purpose.

I dragged Rurin, who was yawning, and went to see Mr. Knoll. After telling Mr. Knoll, who was still sober, to come to the restaurant without fail, I returned to the store and prepared the setting for the reconciliation event. Of course, I plan to seat them at a table for four rather than a bar table.

The dish I’m about to serve is shabu-shabu, which you can eat together.

Put the broth in a pot. And Mr. Knoll is proud of the Belleren meat. The time has finally come to use the Veleren meat.

The meat quality of the monster Belleren was very suitable for shabu-shabu. This is because it has the property of ripening quickly. Red meat with a characteristic soft texture.

The broth, as well as anchovies and kelp. And then they dropped the monton mushrooms. These mushrooms are a valuable ingredient that adds flavor to the soup. Since anchovies and kelp are foreign to people in this world, it was necessary to add familiarity with monton mushrooms.

Scoop out the broth and taste it. Even though it is a basic broth, it has a deep flavor. Would you say that you can taste the taste of MSG even without any seasoning? This is the greatness of monton mushrooms.

Here is Beleren meat, which has a deeper flavor than beef. I sliced the Beleren meat very thinly that I received from Mr. Knoll. Thinly sliced bellelen meat has a color similar to that of beef brisket.

“What about hamburger steak?”

“I’ll do it later. “Can you please sweep the outside of the restaurant?”

“You can’t do such a trivial thing!”

“Please?”

“So you’re trying to tell me to go back? I don’t like clans. “They always make fun of me and call me an ugly person, and I also hate humans.”

“So, help with the work!”

“Ugh! “I’m sleepy.”

I took out the broom and handed it over. Lurin had no choice but to take the broom and trudge out the door and start sweeping the floor. A cleaning dragon. Very unique. However, after sweeping the floor twice, Mr. Dragon leaned against the railing of the store and began to doze off.

Oh my.

What do you want from a dragon?

I gave up and focused on using Veleren meat. Anyway, the meat at Mr. Knoll’s store is really fresh.

This world is an era of free work. There is only a distinction between nobles and commoners. There is no such thing as nobility between professions. So, if it were a butcher shop of this size, it would be possible to grow it with a larger distribution network.

As I was cutting meat while thinking about such useless things, Mr. Laine and Mr. Ment arrived at the restaurant first.

“Do you run a restaurant in a place like this?”

“Mr. Ment, even though I’ve tried it, it’s so delicious that it can’t be compared to that restaurant from before. In fact, if my husband wasn’t a regular, I would have brought him here. It’s definitely something my husband could misunderstand… I think it’s really difficult to keep it a secret. “I can’t believe I missed the right time to speak and ended up here.”

“Isn’t it because it would be difficult to go on a rampage and close the store midway? “Don’t be too hard on yourself.”

“yes.”

“That is correct. “Now sit here.”

I led the two people to the table. While I was doing that, Mr. Knoll arrived.

“You said you would find out about Laine, but you came to the restaurant anyway! “What on earth is going on?”

As soon as he arrived, Mr. Knoll, who was still sober and staggering, made eye contact with Mr. Raine. And with Mr. Ment.

Mr. Knoll seemed to have suddenly gained strength and rushed towards Mr. Ment.

“Hey you bastard! “You bastard, how dare you lay a hand on Raine?”

“Wait. Mr. Knoll.”

“Wait a minute, wait a minute!” “This bastard said he was looking into the details, but then he connected the two people together like this?”

“Honey, that’s not it! “No!”

“Why not! Why did you call me? Are you asking me to break up with you? I love it because it’s amazing. I will kill them all. “I will kill them all!”

Mr. Knoll, who was already under the influence of alcohol, could not hold back his anger and tried to cause a ruckus.

“Mr. Ment lent us money when we opened our business, and we only met every month to repay the money! So calm down, honey!”

“what?”

Mr. Knoll blinked and looked at the two people in turn.

“I know your personality. Would you have opened a store if you knew that Mr. Ment lent you most of his life savings? Even if he died, he wouldn’t have tried to take that money! So, that means there was nothing I could do.”

Mr. Raine finally burst into tears.

“What what?”

Mr. Knoll looked at Mr. Mant in confusion.

“Wait a minute, didn’t Raine say that the money was returned after the lord’s castle caught the culprit? “You obviously did that, right?”

“You were so mentally exhausted that you believed what he said, and honestly, getting it back is impossible.”

“That can’t be possible…”

When Mr. Ment nodded, Mr. Knoll sat down on the ground helplessly.

“You saved my life. I thought it was natural that I should help such a friend as he tries to find happiness. Even if I don’t see you often because of it, even if I can’t drink with you anymore! I’m sorry I deceived you. However, I had no choice but to lie because I agreed that there was no way I would receive anything if I told you the truth. Even as time passed, I was stung by having lied once, so I was unable to tell the truth.”

“you… .”

Mr. Raine added while crying.

“You were so self-destructive that you acted as if you were going to commit suicide, so I was scared and had no choice but to get help. At first, Mr. Ment said he didn’t even have to repay the money, but that’s nonsense, right? So, I just met regularly to pay back even a small amount of money. “How could you misunderstand that?”

Mr. Knoll couldn’t say anything. I slowly stepped in and helped Mr. Knoll sit down at the table. Then Mr. Knoll opened his mouth with difficulty and muttered.

“ha. I’m not cheating, you… Did you lend me your life savings? To a guy like me? How can that be? “I would appreciate it if you just visit often.”

“How can you watch something go wrong? I still can’t forget the day you pushed me and struck me with a sword at the Battle of Peren! So, if it weren’t for your pride, we wouldn’t have been able to meet properly for 10 years! I had no intention of getting married anyway and was planning to continue working as a mercenary, so I didn’t need the money. This does not mean that they even lent the living funds to live alone. So I still think it was a good decision.”

“… … .”

Mr. Knoll couldn’t say anything. It didn’t look like they were going to return the money and close the store anymore.

“Besides, I paid off all the money in 10 years! So, it’s no use talking like that now rather than giving the money back. So don’t say anything about closing the store, honey.”

Quang!

Mr. Knoll closed his mouth and slammed the desk in response to Mr. Raine’s plea.

Mr. Layne was startled and shook his head.

“For someone like me to doubt you guys like that… Damn you!”

But fortunately, it wasn’t just an expression of anger. Should I say I am angry at myself? So I intervened.

“You three, let’s calm down first and taste this dish before talking about it, shall we?”

I put the boiling pot on the table. And I put in three pieces of Beleren meat from Mr. Knoll’s store. The Beleren meat cooked quickly in the bubbling broth.

I took it out and placed it on the plate in front of the three people.

“Pick it up and try the sauce in front of it.”

The three people looked confused, but they couldn’t resist and took the meat to their mouths, probably because they thought it was a dish prepared with great care.

“Oh oh.”

“It’s delicious.”

“it is delicious. LC.”

“Yes?”

I held my breath for a moment and opened my mouth.

“This is made from the meat Mr. Knoll provided. “Eat and relax.”

After leaving the meat with Mr. Raine, I left there. The water was boiling in the pot.

The three people said nothing for a moment.

“Do you still have a good eye for meat? “The taste of this meat is excellent.”

“is it? “No one can match my skills!”

Thanks to Mr. Ment, a conversation began at the table where there was silence. At the same time, Mr. Knoll began to gulp down the steaming broth.

The atmosphere was gradually calming down.

“Hey dude! Bring me some alcohol! Isn’t this a situation where alcohol is clearly needed? That soju! Bring some soju. “I have to show my friend the taste of soju.”

Mr. Knoll turned his head and shouted at me. Yes, this is a perfect place for drinking. I couldn’t help but smile and delivered the soju.

After drinking soju, Mr. Knoll’s eyes immediately become moist. For some reason, I felt that way.

“You bastard…! You bastard…. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you! Haha, but why is the smoke so hot…? hey! L! Try acting! “I’m crying all over my eyes!”

“Why is it the pot’s fault? “The others are fine.”

“noisy!”

Mr. Knoll ate the soup again and drank soju. And then he clashes the bottle with Mr. Ment’s soju bottle.

It was only after seeing that that Raine ate the soup. It seemed like the misunderstanding had been resolved well.

The restaurant is crowded for the first time in a long time.

This is a good phenomenon. With this, it seems unlikely that my favorite butcher shop will close. So that’s good.
