Dn was rejoicing on how he had obtained the second page of the Cultivation technique Cosmic God''s Business of Gxies. He wasughing loudly in his heart but only a wide smile was found on disy in his handsome face.
When the employees saw Dn smiling widely all of a sudden, his employees were gossiping and trying to figure out what their boss was currently thinking.
"Why is sir Dn smiling widely all of a sudden?" Ana suddenly asked to Le.
"Huh?" Le was caught off guard as she was staring at Dn all this time.
"Ohhh, hehehe. You were starting at sir Dn, right?" Ana teased.
"Uhmm, no..." Le denied embarassingly.
"Hehehe, stop denying it." Another girl teased her name was Jeanne Parker.
"Ooooohhh, Le has got a crush on sir Dn. Hahaha." Ronald Treat teased too. Ronald was unable to join the ranks of the top 10 as he only got 7.35 rating but it was enough for him to be ranked eleventh.
"Stop it!" Le blushingly stomped her foot.
"Enough with the teasing guys!" Larry seriously remarked.
"Okay." Ana pouted.
"Anyways, what do you guys think is sir Dn thinking right now?" Ana questioned her co-workers.
"You''re right. I''m also quite curious about what sir Dn is thinking right now." Ronald grinned as he spoke and looked at Le.
"Why are you looking at me for?" Le questioned this man.
"Hehehe, are you thinking that Sir Dn might be preparing a dinner for two with you? Hehehe." Ronald replied teasingly.
"Jerk!" Le pounded her fist onto Ronald''s head.
"Ouch. That hurt." Ronaldined.
"Hmph, serves you right!" Le smirked as she was somewhat satisfied with her little revenge.
"Maybe sir Dn is thinking of our performances." A gray haired guy guessed. His name was Joma Kray, he was one of Dn''s above average worker.
"Really? I think sir is thinking of the rapid development of the restaurant." Larry joined in the discussion as well.
"Hmmm but maybe sir is thinking of... Nevermind." Ana was about to say something when she took it back at the most crucial moment.
"What?" Everyone became curious because of the sudden retrieval of thought that Ana was about to say a moment ago.
"Hehehe, are you sure?" Ana asked yfully.
"Yes." They all said.
"Ever noticed how Dn was smiling ever since the renovation?" Ana asked in the same manner.
"Yes. But why? Does it have anything to do with any of this?" Ronald asked curiously.
"Yes, it does." Ana said.
"How?" Joma said.
Everyone was bing increasingly curious as every moment passed. They started pondering over what Ana said.
"Okay, I''ll exin. The men came before sir Dn and sir Dn was not, even the least, shocked. This is where it gets interesting. Let me rephrase how the sentence went. Since the men came for renovation of the restaurant and sir Dn was smiling ever since the renovation, wouldn''t it be right if I say that sir Dn if I say that sir Dn was smiling ever since the men came to the restaurant?" Ana deduced and smiled yfully.
"What?!" This hypothesis that Ana formted truly shocked them to their core.
"Sir Dn is.... Gay?" Larry could not help but ask. He really couldn''t believe it.
"No..." Le felt heartbroken when she heard this.
"Do you all believe me now?" Ana spoke jokingly.
"Oh, is that so?" A voice that came from her back sounded.
"Of course, didn''t you hear what I just said?" Ana spoke haughtily without turning.
"So are you implying I was deaf? What if I told you that I heard every single thing?" The voice talked back in a calm manner.
"Yes. If you have heard it, then you should have caught up immediately." Ana replied in the same manner.
"Oh, so now you are implying I''m dumb and slow?" The voice asked.
"Yup. So can you please shut up? Who the hell are you anyway?" Ana became angry of the repeated retorical questions the voice said. But, she got a familiar feeling of this voice. A nagging feeling told her that it was really familiar. When she turned to face the origin of the voice, she saw a familiar handsome face that was distinct from any she ever knew. At the same time, she also felt extremely ominous as the face rified.
"Sir... D-Dn.....?!" Ana stuttered because thinking back of what she had just done, it was already grounds for her to be fired.
"Yes?" Dn replied smilingly with calmness and warmth.
"I''M SOOOORRRRYYY." Ana broke down and knelt.
"Why?" Dn asked
"DON''T FIIIREE MEE PLEEEEAAAASSE!" Ana begged for mercy as tears was flowing down from her red eyes. She deeply regretted what she had just said. She wished that she should have never said it to her fellow workers. She really wanted to hide in a hole forever because of what she did.
"Don''t worry. I won''t fire you." Dn replied with a faint smile.
"Really?" Ana? calmed by a bit but tears continued to form a tiny stream from her eyes to her jaws.
"Of course, but..." Dn''s? smile was getting a bit stiff.
" But?" Ana was trembling in fear as she was afraid that Dn would take his words back. This job although one of the hardest, but the earnings? was worth it. She just did not want to lose this job.
"But there would be a punishment for your im earlier " Dn''s smile and voice had a tinge of anger with it.
"What is it, sir Dn?"
"You are the one to do the dishes for a whole week!" Dn ordered.
"Whaaat?!" Ana? was shocked.
The number of dishes that they used every day was nearly more than 250. So Dn ordered the boys to buy 500 sets of tes and tters as well as 500 sets of utensils and equipments needed by the restaurant. A set was equal to 100 silver coins so Dn had to spend about 100 000 silver coins. Dn also needed to buy the extrand he used for the renovation from Robert Bobman. A square meter was equal to 500 silver coins and since he used 55 squared meters for the renovation, Dn had expended 27500 silver coins for thend. He also paid his debt of 1500 gold coins or 150000 silver coins. So Dn had totally gone from riches down to being poor once more.
Dn''s heart ached by the expenditure of approximately 277 500 silver coins which was near his overall earnings of more than 300 000 silver coins. He also used the remaining money to buy for the nails, moonshine stone, a stone that used the moonlight to illuminate, and materials that the workers needed and that only left him with a measly 250 silver coins. How tragic it was that more than 300 000 silver coins which was equal to 3000 gold coins quickly disappeared in a short span of a day. But, Dn knew he was doing this for the improvement of his brand and would quickly gain back his losses with his skills in business.
"Why? Is there a problem? I could change the punishment if you want. You could..." Dn continued saying up until three punishments when Ana agreed to washing the dishes as the other punishments could only make her hair stood up over the difficulty.
"No more, sir... I agree to washing the dishes for a week..." Ana being pale faced epted her fate.
"And if you are still wondering what I did this afternoon, okay. I will narrate." Dn said. He narrated what he did this afternoon in a summary and as he was talking each one of the employees were looking at each other marvelling at their bosses greatness. They now understood where this men came from.
"Do you now understand?" Dn asked.
"Yes sir." Everyone replied in a respectful manner.
"Good. Now get back to work and enough with the chitchat." Dn disciplined his employees.
"Yes, sir." Everyone replied in approval.
Everyone went to their stations as they prepared for the arrival of the customers. The made fun of An while waiting as some said things like, "Serves you right" and "Hahaha don''t worry it''s just one week." Ana became depressed because of the teasing of her fellow workers but adjusted her attitude quickly to prepare for the uing customers.
It was another stressful restaurant as the customer''s numbers increased from 200 to 300! It was because of the widening of the area that the workers made prior to the customers arrival. Dn did not let the 30 men to help as he discovered that none of them had any experiees with regards to customer service and interpersonalmunication. In the end, he could only let them go back to their respective organizations.
On the other hand, he was very satisfied that his employees were already nearing his standards as their general ratings were 7.5 already. Their improvement was really up to his standards but even though they improved significantly the great number was still overwhelming them. So, Dn still needed to step up and help them.
After a tiring night, all of Dn''s employees were beat and tired of 4 hours of unending and constant services and left after saying goodbye to Dn. Thanks to the Gardenford Restaurant''s quality of gourmet that was top notch, customers kept piling in. This made Dn feel the need that he needed to find more employees at this rate because his current number of employees will be unable to fully amodate such number of increasing people to serve.
Dn no longer needed to clean up and restore his equipments as they were already made stationary and fixed. He also had the workers to create gate so that he would only need to lock up the restaurant when closing it.
Dn went to the forest to train. He fought dozens of monsters and killed them for extra stock. He familiarized himself first with his newly acquired cultivation level. Although because of Marrow Cleansing Purifying the Body, it would almost ensure that he would never fall into Cultivation Deviation but he still wanted to y itself and further strengthened his cultivation base.
He was just about to check out the Second page of the Cosmic God''s Business of Gxies when he saw something in the sky. It was like a shooting star and he was just about to make a wish when he noticed it heading to his way.
"What the heck?" Dn was shocked to see that the shooting star was following him like a homing missile.
Dn started running on the opposite direction but the shooting star kept tilting to his direction. The homing shooting star was getting increasingly closer and is constantly moving at a fast speed. Dn got a better glimpse of the thing that was following him. It was not a shooting star but a rock that was as big as a car wheel.
He was helpless seeing that the rock was still following him.
"What did I do to deserve this?" He looked back and saw a rock that was nearing him. The next moment he felt the smashing force that the rock had and felt immense pain from it. Everything cked out for Dn and he became unconscious after the incident.
When he woke up, it was already morning. He quickly tried to feel his face but he found out that there was no injury nor bleeding.
"Just what the hell was that rock?" He questioned himself.
After doing some stretching, he meditated to recover. While meditating he discovered something that dumbfounded him. Inside the mansion gates, at the top of fountain, he saw something that wasn''t there before. It was... the rock that fell from the sky!
