Chapter 22: The Bread of the Rio Manor (Part II)
The closest bakery to the Rio estate is a large bakery, which is actually a flour factory with a series of production lines, starting with the processing of flour.
Here, you can often see the figures of those subordinate officials, they are like the quality inspectors of each product, and it seems that every bread must be identified by them.
It can be seen that the people in the ruling hall in the workshop must have intervened, and this is also a kind of protection, otherwise no one can guarantee that such an alluring fragrance will not cause the hungry people to think of sin.
After entering the workshop, Mauss changed his mind, ordered a combo meal for Shura, and went straight to the principal.
"Is there anything wrong with me?"
The owner of the workshop was a stocky man, dressed in white, with a high belly, about the size of Maus, but three times his size.
Vado's bloated face had two slightly curly mustaches, a pair of brown eyes were deeply squeezed by the fat, and slightly cold words came out of his mouth.
Maus obviously sensed the other party's cold attitude, but he didn't care at all, his outfit would indeed make anyone uninterested.
"Please don't do this, do you want me to buy a fancy dress and talk to you about business?"
Hearing the word business, Wado's face changed, and he said in a slightly puzzled tone: "Who are you and what business do you want to do?"
Maus turned his head to look at Shura, who was eating bread in the dining area, and then he took out a document from his arms and handed it to the other party: "Let me show you this, I am the new owner of the Rio manor." ”
"What is this?"
Despite saying this, Vado still carefully read the contents of the document.
"Then I have to congratulate you, Mr. Maus, the new owner of the Rio Manor, well, let's talk about business, do you want the workshop to deliver food to the manor, how many people will divide it, how long, a month or two months. ”
After returning the documents to the other party, Vado asked seriously.
"Sir, are you kidding, the Rio Manor is now a ruin, please be serious, you are not the only one who sells bread in the East End. The expression on Maus's face froze, and to be honest, he was a little angry.
"Haha, distinguished guests, please don't mind, I just want to ease the atmosphere, let's have a cup of fine coffee first, and then talk about business, do you think that's okay?"
"My name is Vado, and I'm the steward of this workshop, and it's a pleasure to meet you. After the two sides sat down, Vado took the initiative to introduce himself.
Looking at the other party's calm appearance, Vado already knew in his heart, a teenager with the ownership of the Rio manor, coupled with his calmness and wisdom, I am afraid that this kind of person should be valued everywhere.
Soon, a cup of steaming coffee was placed on the glass table in front of Maus, and the aroma of the cooked coffee beans combined with the taste of the milk was so perfect that people couldn't help but want to taste it.
Vado seemed to be very patient at this moment, and he watched quietly as Mame enjoyed the fine coffee, without making a sound.
It didn't take long for Mauss to finish his coffee, and to be honest, he still liked to drink milk alone, and after putting down the cup, his eyes fell on the other party.
"I'm ready to start rebuilding the Rio estate, and I need you to provide me with bread for three hundred people a day. ”
"Ah, are you telling the truth?"
Hearing the contents of the business, Valdo's eyes lit up, and he finally began to look at the young man Mus, who had three hundred portions of bread a day, and the amount of bread seemed to be average.
But this is a rebuilding of the Rio estate, and if it continues, the interest rate in it will be very high, which has to be treated with caution by Valdo.
"Of course, so what are you going to do?"
Maus knew very well that these merchants were cunning in their bones, and that he had to get as much advantage as he could for himself.
"If you are not in a hurry, please give a moment to think about it, I promise, I will definitely give you a satisfactory answer. ”
For a while, Vado didn't dare to make a decision on his own, at least he had to talk to the people in the ruling hall first.
"Maus, I'm full. ”
Just then, Shura approached, her mouth full of crumbs and grease, and a teapot-sized milk sachet in her hand.
"I don't think you're going to be so stingy, Mr. Valdo. Mauss took the bread, and he asked earnestly as he stared at the other man.
"When, of course, Mr. Mauss enjoys the bread here. ”
The surprise on Valdo's face flashed, and he realized the other party's intentions, and secretly felt empty.
"Thank you, then I'll give you half a day to think, and I'll come back in the afternoon. ”
Maus stood up, and as he prepared to leave the place, Shura hurriedly followed.
"Yes, Mr. Maus. ”
Vado stopped talking suddenly, dumbfounded, for he saw that the other man was constantly taking bread from the shelves and shoving it into Shura's hands with impunity.
"Is there anything else Mr. Valdo could do?"
"Ah, no, it's okay, Mr. Mauss I'll be waiting for you in the workshop in the afternoon. ”
After leaving the workshop, Mauss walked straight towards the Rio estate, and his instincts told him that Obotov should have arrived.
Shura beside her was holding a pile of bread in her arms, and she was walking a little unsteadily, but her face was full of bright smiles, which was exactly what she had been doing in her sleep.
Without blushing and without a beating heart, a blank check was written to the head of the workshop, and Mauss did not feel the slightest sense of shame, until now he could not be sure whether Obotov would be able to bring him the gold coins.
From a distance, I saw a group of people standing in front of the Rio manor, these people were no strangers, wearing ill-fitting armor, and their demeanor seemed a little casual, weren't they those good city guards.
"Haha, Maus, I finally saw you. ”
At the head was Obotov, who walked up to Mauss in a few steps and gave him a bear hug directly.
"Brother Aobo, is everything going well?"
Mauss did not feel any discomfort, and he accepted Obotov's enthusiasm very naturally.
"Didn't disappoint you, I brought you the gold coins. ”
As he spoke, Obotov's eyes fell on the city guards, and Mauss realized that they all had bags full of things in their hands.
"Big Brother Aobo, what is this?"
"Haha, there are hundreds of gold coins, and that guy is quite rich, but some of them I shipped to the city lord, and the subordinate officials of the ruling hall are still working there. Obotov casually took the bag from one of the city guards and handed it to Maus.
"Thank you very much, thank you very much. ”
Maus is not a fool, with a heavy bag in his hand, it is very good to be able to get these, after all, the city of Lenka belongs to the city lord.
Shura brought the bread. ”
"Oooh. ”
Shura answered, and stepped forward obediently, her face showing reluctance, clearly guessing Maus's intentions.
"Mus, you're so thoughtful, we've been busy so far, we haven't eaten yet, you all come here, eat some bread first." ”
Obotov was not polite, and directly took the bread and ate it on the spot, as did the city guards.
