A Stay-at-home Dad’s Restaurant In An Alternate World

Chapter 1702: Father-And-Son Orcs

Leiden and Moore, the father and son, came from the Twilight Forest. Their tribe made a living with shepherding, and it was a small tribe that was slowly facing a decline.

There weren’t enough grass patches in the forest to begin with, and after the big tribes forcefully claimed territories, their tribe’s last remaining grass patch was also occupied. Leiden did not want to herd for others, so he brought Moore to Chaos City.

Chaos City was a good place. Leiden had already heard people say that this was a place full of opportunities. As long as one was willing to put in some effort, they would not go hungry.

That was the truth. After half a month of their arrival, the father-and-son duo had not only earned money for their meals, they even managed to save up 1000 copper coins by moving goods for others and sleeping in communal bunk beds.

However, that was not a long-term plan. There would be one day where Leiden would no longer be able to do manual labor, and Moore would still have to get married, so Leiden could not depend on Moore to support him when he was old. Therefore, the father-and-son duo did not rush to the factory this morning. Instead, they came to Aden Square, which was said to be the busiest area of Chaos City, to take a look if they could find any opportunities.

Aden Square was huge. There were all kinds of shops lined up along the crescent-shaped square.

There were tons of restaurants, and even tailors and cloth shops could be seen everywhere. There were drunkards staggering out of bars from time to time as women in chiffon dresses closed the doors behind them with a look of disdain.

This scene made the Father-and-Son duo, who didn’t have the chance to go out a lot, a little stunned.

Leiden, who had been shepherding for his whole life, had no other abilities other than having strength.

However, after seeing the rows of restaurants, Moore came up with an idea: open a mutton restaurant.

Leiden had been interacting with sheep for the whole of his life. In the tribe, they did not sell their sheep. The most they did was barter the sheep with passing merchants for some salt, but the majority of the sheep were their food.

He was not really good at anything, but he was pretty skilled at roasting mutton.

He could make roasted mutton and stewed mutton, and come up with different new things with simple techniques to make mutton. In the past, he made so many children cry because they wanted to eat the mutton he made so badly.

However, he had never thought that he could earn money from roasting mutton.

“We haven’t seen any mutton restaurants on the way. Could it be that the people from Chaos City don’t like mutton?” Leiden said with a frown.

“How is that possible? Mutton is divine. How could anyone not like it?” Moore thought for a while, and seriously said, “I think it must be because no one could make mutton well. If they tried the mutton you made, they would definitely fall in love with mutton.”

Leiden shook his head. He did not lose his rationale because of Moore’s words. Opening a restaurant required a large sum of money. They did not have the capital right now.

Besides, even if they wanted to open a mutton restaurant, they had to at least know that there were people who loved eating mutton in Chaos City first before they could know if this business was viable.

Although Leiden did not have much knowledge, he was not a fool.

The father-and-son duo arrived at the other corner of Aden Square unknowingly. Moore suddenly pointed to the front, and asked, “Father, look, what are all those people in front lining up for?”

“It’s so early in the morning, and the weather is so cold. What are they lining up for? Are they waiting to start work?” Leiden was also a little shocked with that long line.

“Let’s go take a look. Since there are so many people lining up, the pay for this job might be pretty good,” Moore said with a smile as he moved forward quickly.

“That made sense.” Leiden took a few quick steps forward and caught up with Moore. They could think about doing business again slowly, but they first had to work hard to earn sufficient capital.

However, when Leiden and Moore got closer, they were stunned.

Those people lining up were all dressed to the nines. They looked even richer than the bosses they had seen for the past few days. These people weren’t paid workers at all.

“Look, Father, this is a restaurant.” Moore looked at Mamy Restaurant in shock.

This restaurant was incredibly posh. It had a wall made completely out of crystals. It was even more lavish than any of the restaurants he had seen before.ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ novelenglish.net . ꜰirᴇ

“Yeah. So it’s a restaurant.” Leiden was also slightly shocked. This restaurant that could make so many bosses line up here early in the morning had to be incredible. They probably wouldn’t be able to afford a meal here even if they emptied their pockets. Leiden tugged Moore’s hand and brought him away.

“Boss Mag is going to launch mutton soup in the morning and mutton kebab in the afternoon. Two new dishes in a day. That’s not like him at all.”

“Exactly. Besides, mutton had such a strong odor. I can’t take it.”

“You could eat tripe fine. What is mutton? Boss Mag’s culinary skill is at the level of a god.”

“Since you put it that way, I’m getting more interested in the mutton soup.”

The customers’ discussion made Leiden and his son stop in their tracks.

They exchanged glances before turning their heads back to look at the entrance of the restaurant. On the entrance, there was a small blackboard with two rows of words.

Moore, who was a little literate, read, “New product for this morning: mutton soup; new product for this afternoon: mutton kebab.”

It was two rows of very simple words, but they made Leiden’s and Moore’s eyes light up.

“Father, look, I told you there would be people who like mutton. This is a restaurant that is popular with so many big bosses. They’re selling mutton too,” Moore told Leiden excitedly.

Leiden was also a little excited. However, he calmed down quickly, and softly said, “It’s only a new launch. It might not be popular with everyone.”

“Let’s line up and try it too. We can also see the customers’ reactions to it.” Moore also lowered his voice, but there was still an excitement in his gaze.

“But…” Leiden fell silent. He looked at the posh setup of the restaurant. This kind of restaurant was not one they could set foot in.

“If the food’s too expensive, we can just take a look before coming out. If we don’t sit, we won’t even dirty their chairs.” Moore could tell what Leiden was worried about. “I think the people in Chaos City are quite nice.”

“Alright. Let’s line up at the back too.” Leiden made the decision, and went to the end of the line with Moore.

They had yet to find a permanent place to stay after coming over, and Leiden was a little embarrassed to go to someone else’s restaurant to check it out. However, he really had no choice. He had little skill and not much money. If he wasn’t sure, he wouldn’t dare to make a rash decision.

“Welcome to Mamy Restaurant.” The restaurant’s door opened slowly. A young man dressed in a white chef’s uniform walked out with a few pretty ladies as they welcomed the customers at the door with a smile.

“This is the restaurant owner? He looks so young.” Leiden was a little shocked to see the young man.
