chapter-714
The next day, Sam finished the dishes mostly made of rice and meat. His major dishes are mostly Biriyanis made in different styles.
There are some things he observed in this world. No matter how strict the social statuses in this place are, every social class likes eating food. There are suitable foods for every social class.
He would open a biriyani restaurant while serving the Kheer as a dessert.
Biriyani is one of the tastiest dishes that could be made with rice and meat and this place such high-quality rice and it is also suitable for growing birds like the spirit fowl which grows on everything. That would be the most common biriyani that could even be eaten by the Grand realm cultivators.
As for the rest of the biriyanis, he decided to keep one biriyani with neutral energy and fish out some dishes that could carry different energies later.Every energy except water and ice. Both of them became impossible for him to create with the biriyani experiments.
Even though he didn't experiment much and cooked on intuition it worked well actually and he made the perfect dishes that could easily sell in this world.
By noon, Raunak came to him along with his attendant and Watt served all the dishes one by one so that both of them would eat to their fill and they served Kheer at last.
Both of them looked incredibly satisfied and the attendant widened his eyes in disbelief at the end of the meal. He moved out of the dining table and sat cross-legged on the floor and started sweating so much. After a while, he opened his eyes and looked at Sam before saying.
"Thank you so much. Your food helped with a stubborn injury that was too sensitive to be treated by normal healing procedures and the normal elixirs couldn't help much. But just the sheer energy simulated by your food helped me recover fully."
Sam just smiled. He knew these kinds of effects are mostly because of the rice, this happened only because the dish he ate is of wood elemental energy and the attendant is also proficient in wood element.
Sam looked at Raunak who is also looking at him. He made this wood element biriyani as a special item on the menu and it wouldn't be on there for the whole week.But it has another special purpose and it would become immensely popular in this world and the reason the elves are naturals at wood element. Just like how mermen have natural water elemental affinity, the elves have the affinity with the wood element and this wood element dish works best on the elves.
"This dish is amazing. When are you going to open the restaurant?"
"In three days. We have something to do in these three days and after that, we will open the restaurant."
"Okay then, I will arrange a shop for you in the market street you can open your restaurant there. I can even arrange a discount on the price of the shop if you want to buy it and if you want to lease it, you can get a pretty good deal.
You can buy the raw ingredients directly from the town mansion which would reduce your costs a bit. But there is something I will make clear for you. Due to the help, I am providing, you will have to pay a little more tax than the rest after you get the revenue. Are you okay with that?"
"May I know how much more it is?"
"Generally it is ten percent of the profits, but you will need to pay fifteen percent of the profits. Are you okay with that?"
"Yes."
"The profits just doesn't include the profits from selling food, if by any chance you sell your recipes you will also have to pay additional tax for that."
"Sure, I am okay with that," Sam said with a smirk on his face as if he understood what Raunak said. The latter also gave out the same smirk before saying.
"I think you and me are going to get along just fine."
"I am sure we would."
They shook hands and the two guests left.
"What is this all about? Why did you agree to more tax?" Watt asked with a puzzled face. Sam is not the one to suffer any loss. It was pretty clear with all examples laid out in bare.
"You will see it in a few days. If I am not wrong within a month we would be getting our civilian identity, so we can go on to explore more and if this goes right, I think I found our potential partner right here."
"Raunak? Isn't he a bit greedy? Why would you make him our partner?" This time it is Jack who asked this question. But before Sam could answer, Philip beat him to it.
"He is not greedy, he is only ambitious. You guys might have forgotten what his occupation is, it is business administration, but to be blunt it is just his duty to increase the taxes. Now with this five percent extra tax which would be accounted for his contribution will help his career.
With how we do business, it is always a large amount that is involved and the tax would be huge too. So, this guy would gain huge merit which might help him get promoted. That is why he is saying that they would get along fine.'
But one thing I am not sure about is his talk about the recipe."
Sam chuckled and said.
"You will figure out with time. Now stop the discussion and help me out a bit. You have to stay in the four busiest streets and distribute the Kheer for free. Just serve however much they want, but only for eating. Don't let them take away from that place and while you are at it promote our restaurant."
"For free?"
"Why? It is one of the tastiest dishes I ever had, why would you give it away for free?"
"It is tasty, but with little practice, they can replicate it, so rather than launching it in the menu and got replicated later, we will use that as a stepping stone.
After three days of free distribution, the customers will surely be curious about our restaurant. On the fourth day, we will be having free service for the first hundred customers be sure to promote that too and after we are done with that, we would have already attracted enough customer base.
So, off you go."
Even Sam himself went with a barrel of kheer while he sent his friends off and started distributing the Kheer.
It has become so popular quickly and within few hours it was already gone.
The next day Sam didn't go early in the morning, instead, he went to the administration office to finish the procedures and once the procedures are finished he went back to distributing Kheer.
Sam who is worth billions is doing free service just so that he could get into the system of this realm.
The kheer became extremely popular by the second day. And the food business took a hit as Sam and his friends made an even larger portion of kheer that day.
But before the restaurant owners could cause trouble the group announced that the third day will be the last day for the free kheer distribution.
On the third day, they went on with distributing the kheer and by the end of it, they announced the opening of the restaurant and also the free service for the first hundred customers.
This worked like a charm and the whole town soon came to know about the new restaurant that is going to open.
The delicious kheer is free publicity and also a bar raised high with certain expectations regarding the taste of the rest of the dishes.
The restaurant owners ground their teeth in anger at the despicable scheme and they immediately called for their chefs.
"I want you to replicate that Kheer. They managed to gain the attention of these customers and the Kheer might be the only addition they have to the general menu. After this initial boost has ended, we can use the Kheer as our source of publicity and gain our customers back."
A restaurant owner said to his chef.
"But boss, what would you do if they have new dishes? The kheer itself is a new dish and all the ingredients are of local produce, if they can create that one, there is no reason for us to not suspect that they couldn't have made others.
I think it is better for us to first taste what they have and think of a solution after that."
"Okay, sure."
Similar conversations went on in different restaurants. Even the officials decided to take a look at the new restaurant because of the special invitation from Raunak.
He even asked Sam if he could treat the officials and asked for a reservation on the first day.
Sam first decided to open the restaurant for lunch in, afternoon, but since he asked, he just asked Raunak to invite the officials an hour before noon and have a special lunch before the restaurant even opens.
Raunak was even more satisfied with this arrangement and thanked Sam once again with deeper meaning.
