The magic merchant who mingled with Fairy Tail

In the office, Kira wore a pair of light golden glasses with thin frames and no lenses. On the left end of the glasses, a low-key, luxurious and connotative silver chain hung down his handsome and elegant face, complementing his bright red hair. .

At this time, Kira's eyebrows were slightly furrowed, his lips were pursed slightly, and his expression was extremely serious. He looked like a senior scholar who was solving a difficult problem but was stuck with no clue.

On the table in front of him, there is a stack of important information that he has collected and recorded during his personal visits to various parts of the city in the past few days. It is a piece of white paper as big as A4 paper. Each piece of paper is densely written. It's as thick as five centimeters.

This pile of information, which is taller than his glasses, records in detail the situation of every restaurant in this town: which restaurant uses magic to cook the food, how proficient the chef's magic is; Magic was used in the production of the ingredients and where they were produced; which restaurant was decorated with magic and how much money was spent on the design; what is the scale of the restaurant, how much revenue it earns, how much tax it pays...

The conditions of more than 300 restaurants are all clearly recorded!

"I went to this store last time and the environment was not very good. Please ask someone to check its food safety!"

"The service provided by the proprietress of this shop is very good. As a diner from Ishgar, I can deeply feel the unique humanistic customs and leopard print style of the Western Continent. This competition can give them a quota!"

"I haven't visited these two families yet. I'll go check it out myself when I get back from work!"

"this home……"

Just when Kira was busy and exhausted mentally and physically with the development of the town's catering business, an unbearable shout rang in his ears.

"That's about enough you bastard!!"

The girl in black tights, Heine, after getting along with Kira during this period of time, has long lost her original cold and aloof attitude, and has completely turned into a complaining machine around Kira.

"It's been a whole week!! This week you have spent your working time reading food newspapers and periodicals every day, and you have not paid attention to other work at all. Are you the mayor's assistant like this?!"

Kira's brows furrowed even more, and at the same time, she impatiently used her little finger to pick out the uncomfortable ear that had been yelled at, took out a handful of earwax and flicked it, and sighed helplessly: "Why can't you understand? I This is a business assessment for the town’s ‘Food Competition’ held in a few days!”

"In order to promote urban economic development and promote traditional culture, as the mayor, I must do it myself and set an example! Otherwise, wouldn't I be sorry for Sister Eileen's trust in me?"

Snapped!

With a gentle sound, a handful of yellow-white earwax fell on the girl's delicate face full of collagen, immediately destroying the pure and clean beauty.

"But there has never been a 'Food Contest' in this town before!! You had to hold it after seeing the news about the 'Big Eating Contest'!!"

Heine suddenly roared angrily again, "You are doing this just for eating, drinking and having fun, and you are abandoning the work that really needs to be done!!!"

"Also, how many times have I told you to call me 'Ms. Irene'!!"

The most important thing is that Lady Irene has no trust in you! !

Kira turned a deaf ear to Heine's roar. He had long been accustomed to the other party's behavior of daring to speak out but being unable to defeat him, so he snorted disdainfully from his nose and sneered: "Why should I listen to you?" Yes? This uncle is the younger brother that Sister Eileen recognizes personally!"

“Just because it’s working time!!”

As soon as he finished speaking, the wall clock struck twelve o'clock again.

clang! clang! clang! …

"Listen, what a beautiful and melodious sound..."

Heine was so angry that his face turned red and his chest hurt. Faced with Kira's angry expression, Heine was speechless and couldn't say a word.

She always felt that this guy's working hours passed faster day by day, especially when she wanted to gain the upper hand in a quarrel between the two, and the bell would ring when it was time to get off work.

'what is going on? ! Could it be that this guy's poor living habits have unknowingly dulled my perception of time? ’

Thinking of this, Heine's face immediately turned from red to white, 'If I become useless, I will be abandoned by Lady Irene at any time...'

Kira blinked in surprise, wondering why this girl suddenly became so depressed.

‘Isn’t it just that I was slapped in the face by the bell…is it that embarrassing? Forget it, don’t set the time on the wall clock randomly next time...'

After making up her mind, Kira no longer cared, and with a wave of her hand, she stood up and walked out.

"Get off work!! Go find something to eat!!"

Go to work and fish in the water, go to get off work vigorously and resolutely, the mayor's life is so compact and fulfilling!

…

Ten minutes later, Kira arrived at the restaurant she had decided to inspect before.

"Boss, serve your most expensive dish again!"

Kira's tone was very rude and he acted like a nouveau riche. If someone didn't know better, hearing this way of ordering food, they would just think that he was a rich man who was used to extravagance and waste.

But the owner of this store is different.

As soon as the fat boss saw Kira's appearance, he immediately greeted him with a flattering expression: "Master Kira, are you finally here? I've been waiting for you for a long time!"

"Um!"

Kira responded coldly, then took out a dark notebook and an office pen from his arms, put on a very professional look, raised his eyes on his nose, and said again, "Put your best Serve all the famous dishes!”

"As the general person in charge of the 'Food Competition' event, I am here to rate your store today for the subsequent elimination rounds!"

The news of holding the 'Food Competition' came out a week ago, and before that, Kira had already unabashedly launched an inspection operation at various restaurants in the town. After so many days of fermentation, The news that "Mayor Assistant and Chief Activities Director Kira Hopelett will inspect the restaurants one by one" has long spread throughout the town.

At this time, the owners of these restaurants are all looking forward to it in the store, waiting for when Kira can come to taste the dishes and rate them, and then they can satisfy his stomach, and then become famous in the subsequent competitions and win The signboard of the town's 'No. 1 restaurant'.

Hearing the expected words, the fat boss immediately became excited, and his pig face full of greasy fat smiled so loudly that it was almost a CD legend: "Yes! Yes! It will be ready soon!!"

"sorry to bother you."

Kira nodded to the boss, then took out a light and dry wallet in front of him, pretending to pay back the money, and asked hypocritically, "By the way, how much does this table cost?"

The moment Kira took out his wallet, the fat boss's mouse-like eyes narrowed. His gaze fell on the shriveled wallet in Kira's hand. He frowned suddenly, with an unhappy look on his face, and stretched out his hand. The fat hand pressed back the wallet that Kira had just taken out: "Master Kira is out of sight now! How can we charge you money?"

Kira was furious: "What did you say?! Am I the kind of person who doesn't pay for meals?"

You are so awesome! !

The fat boss complained crazily in his heart: Which restaurant in the town doesn't know that Uncle Kira is taking advantage of the knockout round to eat for free? ? ! I heard that several restaurants that charge money stupidly have been banned. Either the environment is not good or the ingredients are defective, so the rating is called low! If I hadn't received the news early, I might have fallen into this kid's hands!

"No! No!! Of course not!!!"

The fat boss waved his hands hurriedly, "Kira is rich and beautiful and has noble moral character. He is a model for our entire town to follow. How can he not pay for food?!"

"It's just that it's our duty as citizens to cooperate with Lady Eileen in organizing events, and we can never accept it!"

"Besides, being praised by Lady Irene is something that can last a lifetime for diligent and honest merchants like us!"

He did not speak out of conscience. Those who open restaurants are also businessmen, and most businessmen are professions without conscience.

Kira pondered for a few seconds and thought about it again and again. He felt that what the other party said was sincere and logical. Even though he was unparalleled in eloquence, he could not find a rival at all. He could only nod with regret and put the wallet back: " What you said makes sense, I didn’t think carefully this time!”

"Sure enough... only with a few more restaurants like yours can this town develop better!!"

The fat boss nodded like a chicken pecking rice: "The main thing is to have Lord Kira's wise leadership!"

"Just one or two small restaurants are not worth mentioning in front of you and Lady Eileen!"
