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

Chapter 1926: Rum Brewing Factory

“Boss Mag, when are you launching Old Sim’s Rum again? It’s alright if it’s a little more expensive. I am really craving it,” Christopher, the old accountant, asked Mag softly during the lunch hour operations when he walked in.

The customers who liked rum in the line also pricked their ears up. Mamy Restaurant’s rum had been out of stock for a fairly long time. However, Master Old Sim had already passed away, and now the rum that he brewed was priceless.

“There’s no rum currently, but there should be some soon. I have already forged a partnership with Master Old Sim’s only successor, his granddaughter, Hannah.

“She has set up her first brewery in Chaos City, and her first batch of rum will be supplied to Mamy Restaurant. She will be using the Master Old Sim’s 50-year rum collection as a base for her brewery. I believe she will not disappoint all of you,” Mag said with a smile.

He even promised Hannah to test the brewing machine for her. As long as the machine could operate, the brewery could start production immediately, and there would naturally be rum to go about.

“Master Hannah is actually in Chaos City?!” Christopher was stunned. As an avid lover of rum, he naturally knew that Master Old Sim would be succeeded by his granddaughter, who was famous in the Falk Tribe.

“Yes, anyway, everyone can enjoy rum in Mamy Restaurant again in no time at all. Perhaps you might even be able to buy bottled rum outside soon,” Mag said with a smile and a nod.

“Sure, sure.” Christopher nodded merrily as he walked into the restaurant quickly. He had already decided to call some of his drinking friends over to try the rum some days later.

By the time afternoon operations ended, Hannah was already standing by the door, and looking at Mag expectantly. “Boss, do you want to take a break?”

“You obviously don’t want me to rest.” Mag pressed his lips together as he untied his apron, and put it aside.

“Even if it is so, I still have to ask.” Hannah blinked, and urged Mag, “Let’s set off quickly. There are so many parts I might not be able to assemble all of them in one afternoon.”

“Let me get changed.” Mag went upstairs to change into something that he could move more freely in. After that, he pushed his bicycle out as he left with Hannah.

The parts had been sent to the brewery, and all that was left right now was for Mag to supervise the assembly.

“Boss, do you think it’ll work this time?” Hannah asked expectantly and nervously after taking a seat at the backseat of the bicycle.

“I can’t say for sure.” Mag shook his head. “I can’t say for sure if it can all light up at once. Sometimes, luck is very important.”

The steam train went through months of hard work from several engineers and designers before it could finally operate.

Hannah’s machine just came from a small blacksmith. It was drawn by someone who half-knew what she was drawing. Who would believe it if told that the success rate was 100%?ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ N(o)vᴇl(F)ire.net

After arriving, while Mag was still parking the bicycle, Hannah had already jumped off the backseat, and was already hopping towards the workshop.

Mag followed her into the workshop.

Mobai and Lulu had already arranged the parts according to the order of assembling. The two appeared to have put a lot of effort into it judging from their heads full of perspiration.

“Boss Mag, you’re here,” Mobai said with a hearty laugh as he looked at Mag and Hannah.

“It’s been hard on you. It must have taken up a lot of time to arrange all these parts,” Mag said with a smile.

“The time taken to arrange them is negligible compared to the time taken to make them. Moreover, there’s quite a sense of satisfaction with putting them all out.” Mobai shook his head. He looked at the workshop filled with various parts, and smiled with satisfaction.

“In that case, you guys can take a break first. I’ll check the parts, and if all’s good, we can start assembling.” Without saying further, Mag started checking the parts.

Mag was the one who designed it, and he did not even have to check the design for him to start checking the parts due to his outstanding memory.

Needless to say, with Mobai’s skills and his strict working procedure, each part was of the highest quality, and even exceeded Mag’s expectations.

After doing a final check on all the parts, and correcting the position of some parts which were placed in the wrong places, the group of people started the assembling work.

This was the first stage of work at the brewery. Although there were many machine parts, it was not over the top.

They could move on to a larger scale of production after passing the trial for the first stage, and ensuring that the machine could operate stably. There was no need to rush for wine-brewing.

For the entire afternoon, the group of four barely took a break, and they finally assembled all the machines.

“Done.”

Mag looked at the eight horizontal pipes in the workshop, the complicated machines all arranged neatly, and the large wine vats on the ground. It was starting to look like a modern brewery.

“Wow, it’s so cool!” Hannah wiped away her perspiration as she looked at the brewery that she pieced together, her eyes gleaming.

In comparison, the brewery that she made herself in the Falk Tribe was simply… a disgrace.

“Boss Mag, you’re a genius,” Mobai praised in wonderment.

Although Mobai was the one who made all the parts, when all the pieces were put together to form the machines, the final look still astounded him.

“It looks great.” Lulu also smiled foolishly.

“We’ll do the tests tomorrow morning. I have to go back to cook.” Mag glanced at his watch. After that, he smilingly told Mobai and Lulu, “Don’t line up or cook later. I’ll make a little more for dinner, and get Hannah to send some over to you later. Go back and have a good rest.”

“I’ll take such a good deal, then,” Mobai said with a smile.

Lulu smiled foolishly while stroking his head, likewise not rejecting.

Mag got on his bicycle, and returned to the restaurant first.

He made a few more dishes and a pot of chicken soup for Mobai, Lulu, and Xixi’s dinner. After that, he got Hannah to bring the food over.

“So, Hannah, is your brewery starting soon?” Yabemiya asked Hannah curiously during dinner.

“Yes. If everything goes smoothly in tomorrow’s trial, I want to start work immediately.” Hannah nodded. With an expectant smile, she said, “I have not brewed wine in a very, very long time. I’m afraid I will get rusty.”

“A new factory with a new machine, and even some new skills. You will need quite a while to get used to it,” Mag said calmly as he dealt Hannah a small blow.

“It’s alright. It was way tougher when I made my own machine back then,” Hannah said with a smile, not caring.
