Gourmet master of the Pokemon world

Chapter 249: Competitive Employment!

Anjie, as usual, brought his Pokémon to the royal city for work early the next morning.

But as soon as he opened the door, he saw the Minister of Finance waiting there.

“Lord Wilson, so early? Here for breakfast?” Anjie asked in surprise.

“No? I’m here to buy wine!” the Minister of Finance said seriously.

Last night, he took apart the bottle of red wine his son had given him and tasted it, and found it even more flavorful than the white wine he drank during the day (a matter of personal taste)!

Therefore, he felt increasingly unwilling about not being able to buy wine the evening before.

Such good wine, it was foreseeable that it would only become more and more difficult to buy in the future, and its collectible value would also increase.

So he decided to get up early today, surely he wouldn't be unable to buy it this early!

It just so happened that his workplace was on the way to Snorlax's Home.

Anjie was stunned when he heard this. Waiting at the door so early just to buy wine? Was his addiction that strong?

Anjie, who didn't like wine, didn't know the attraction of a good wine to a wine lover.

“Lord Wilson, come in quickly!” Anjie quickly led the Minister of Finance into the store.

Fortunately, it wasn't hot in the morning, otherwise, he would have suffered a heatstroke in this hot summer!

After entering the door, the Minister of Finance looked around the store. Speaking of which, this was his first time coming to Snorlax's Home for breakfast.

Their office had a cafeteria that provided them, the ministers, with free breakfast and lunch, so although he had heard of Anjie's place for a long time, he had never been there.

With free breakfast to eat, who would be willing to spend money to eat outside!

Smelling the aroma wafting from the kitchen not far away, the Minister of Finance subconsciously swallowed.

Anjie shouted towards the Claydol not far away: “Claydol, take Lord Wilson to the second floor to find Gothita!”

Because the dessert shop didn't need any help for the time being, the two Claydols temporarily came to the breakfast shop to help out.

“Motte ~ ~” One of the Claydols responded to Anjie and politely came over to lead the way for the Minister of Finance.

They had also undergone etiquette training.

The Minister of Finance followed behind the Claydol towards the second floor, while he couldn't help but stretch his neck to look in the direction of the kitchen.

It smelled so good, what exactly was His Highness selling here?

When he arrived on the second floor, the Minister of Finance told Gothita that he wanted to buy 10 bottles of each type of wine, but Gothita pointed to the notice that had just been posted on the wall this morning.

The Minister of Finance looked in the direction Gothita was pointing, and saw written on the wall: The daily consumption limit for each customer is 2 bottles of wine, and proxy purchases are prohibited.

The Minister of Finance's face suddenly fell.

“Why is that! Only 2 bottles? How about 8 bottles?”

“Geqi ~ Geqi ~” Gothita shook her head.

“Then 5 bottles!” The Minister of Finance bargained.

Gothita shook her head and firmly made a “2” gesture.

“Can't we negotiate?” the Minister of Finance asked unwillingly.

“Geqi ~ Geqi ~” Gothita spread her hands, indicating that the rules were set by the boss, and she couldn't do anything about it.

Helpless, the Minister of Finance had to say: “Alright, then give me a bottle of this white wine and that bottle of red wine!”

Anjie's white wine and red wine were also divided into different types. Depending on the materials and methods used in brewing, different types of the same wine had different flavors.

At this time, Anjie didn't know that because of the purchase restriction policy he had set, the Minister of Finance came to the entrance of Snorlax's Home early every day to wait in order to collect all the types of wine in his store.

It had to be said that the Minister of Finance's perseverance was commendable, no wonder he was able to climb to his current position.

The importance of the Minister of Finance's position to a country was self-evident.

Not only that, but he also predicted that Anjie's wine would definitely appreciate in value in the future, this foresight was also remarkable.

After receiving the wine, the Minister of Finance walked downstairs with a smile.

At this time, the breakfast shop on the first floor was already more than half full of customers. Everyone was happily eating breakfast, and also chatting about recent news and gossip, which filled the store with a strong sense of everyday life.

The Minister of Finance originally wanted to go directly to work, but after seeing the customers in the store eating so happily, he suddenly stopped.

Should I… buy some to try?

He knew that his son would come here for breakfast every day, so he couldn't help but be curious about how delicious the food here was.

Finally, under the stimulation of the aroma, the Minister of Finance bought a breakfast.

But because he was afraid of being late, he didn't eat in the store.

The aunt who usually served everyone food was wondering why the Minister of Finance sat down to eat without ordering:

“Strange, Lord Wilson has been eating breakfast here for more than ten years, why did he bring his own today? Could it be a love meal made by his wife?”

In fact, the Minister of Finance's wife was a noblewoman who never lifted a finger, how could she cook!

The Minister of Finance took a bite of a bun, and instantly understood why his son had to say that he was eating breakfast at His Highness's store every day.

So it was so delicious? He felt like he had missed out on a billion!

Thinking like this, he sped up his pace of eating breakfast.

Delicious! Too delicious!

As time went by, more and more people came to the cafeteria to eat.

Several officials who were familiar with the Minister of Finance sat next to him and across from him at this time.

When they saw that the food in front of the Minister of Finance was different from theirs, someone asked in confusion:

“Lord Wilson, what are you eating? Is it a new dish in the cafeteria? Why didn't I see it when I ordered just now?”

One person said: “I didn't see it either, this new dish looks very delicious!”

The Minister of Finance replied: “This is not a new dish in the cafeteria, but breakfast from Lord Anjie's store. I just happened to pass by there today, so I bought a copy.”

Just as one of them was about to speak, he heard the Minister of Finance say: “This is not enough for me to eat, if you want to eat it, go buy it yourself! I won't share it with you!”

Everyone was surprised when they heard this. This was the first time they had seen Lord Wilson being so protective of his food.

This made them very curious about the food in Lord Anjie's store.

They were all like the Minister of Finance before, although they had heard of the name of Snorlax's Home, they had never patronized it because they had free breakfast to eat.

At this time, Anjie didn't know that because the Minister of Finance brought his breakfast into the office, it aroused the strong curiosity of the ministers.

In the following days, they visited Snorlax's Home one after another, and thus became loyal fans of Snorlax's Home.

Because of this, the office cafeteria was particularly deserted every morning, causing the chefs and servers to grumble for a while.

The morning passed quickly, and after 10:00 AM, An Jie decisively closed the shop.

Since Elder Guoran and the others were already skilled in their tasks, An Jie didn't stay behind today.

Before leaving, he said to Elder Guoran, Gothita, and Kirlia, who were looking after the shop:

"Take a good rest at noon, and I'll have Bronzong deliver lunch to you later!"

Although the employees didn't eat at An Jie's house for lunch, An Jie naturally had to prepare lunch for Elder Guoran and the others after their hard work in the morning.

"Soro nass~"

"Ge qi~"

"Qi~~"

The three Pokémon waved goodbye to An Jie happily upon hearing this.

Being able to eat the food made by An Jie was worth their hard work.

After returning home, An Jie and his three apprentices made lunch together, and then, as agreed, had Bronzong deliver the food to Elder Guoran and the others.

Although Bronzong was reluctant to run errands, it immediately behaved itself after seeing An Jie's fist.

After a pleasant lunch, An Jie waved to the drowsy Snorlax and said:

"Snorlax, I'm going to the Tree of Beginning to find Mew, do you want to come along?"

"Gang~ Gang~" Together! Together!

Snorlax instantly lost all sleepiness upon hearing this and immediately walked quickly to An Jie's side, skillfully taking An Jie's hand.

An Jie pinched its chubby hand and said with a smile, "Then let's go!"

Honedge, which was resting on the wall, quickly followed upon hearing this.

Bronzong lazily lay on the table. It also heard what An Jie said, but it only glanced at An Jie casually before lying back down on the table without moving.

The weather outside was so hot, it didn't want to leave Nibel Plateau!

An Jie took Snorlax and Honedge through the space-time corridor and arrived at Mew's home.

Unlike the cool Nibel Plateau, An Jie felt a wave of heat rushing towards him as soon as he came out of the space-time corridor.

There was no other way, who told it to be midsummer now!

An Jie looked around and found that Mew was not there.

"Let's go look somewhere else!" An Jie said to Snorlax and Honedge.

"Gang~"

"Yo~"

The two Pokémon nodded and followed An Jie out of the tree hole.

As soon as the one person and two Pokémon walked out of the tree hole, they saw a Pidgey flapping its wings and landing under a shady tree.

Because the weather was too hot, it was panting heavily at this time and constantly shaking its feathers to make them fluffy, so that the heat on its body could dissipate.

Seeing this, An Jie waved to Pidgey, "Pidgey, do you know where Mew is?"

After seeing An Jie, Pidgey immediately flew out of the shade and landed on An Jie's shoulder.

Pidgey naturally recognized An Jie, after all, An Jie often came to the Tree of Beginning to trade with the Chanseys.

Moreover, it had also been to Nibel Plateau to play.

"Pidgey~ Pidgey~" Pidgey patted An Jie's cheek with one wing and pointed the way for An Jie with the other wing.

Under Pidgey's guidance, An Jie passed through the passages inside the Tree of Beginning and finally found Mew in front of a lake.

It turned out that the weather was too hot, and Mew couldn't stand it, so it ran here to cool off.

Together with Mew was Regice, the Iceberg Pokémon.

When they arrived at the lakeside, Pidgey happily flew to the surface of the lake, constantly stepping on the water with its claws, splashing water all over its body.

Because of Regirock, the lake water here was very cold, making it a summer resort. Pidgey was having a great time.

Pidgey's cheerful cry attracted Mew's attention, and Mew also saw An Jie.

"Mew~ Mew~" An Jie, why are you here?

Mew blinked and flew to An Jie's side, sitting down on An Jie's shoulder.

An Jie replied, "I have something I want to discuss with you."

"Mew~" What is it?

Mew tilted its head, looking puzzled.

So An Jie told Mew about his idea of finding a group of Pokémon to be delivery workers.

As soon as Mew heard this, it immediately said, "Mew~ Mew~" No problem, everyone will definitely be happy to!

Working for An Jie meant having a salary, and having a salary meant not having to worry about food and drink. Who could refuse such a good thing?

"Mew~ Mew~" Who do you want to hire?

Mew asked.

An Jie shook his head and said, "I don't know either, that's why I came to you to discuss it!"

Mew fell into deep thought upon hearing this.

After a long while, it said, "Then how about I call everyone over and let you choose?"

An Jie's face lit up with joy upon hearing this, "If that's possible, that would be great!"

Mew was about to go call the Pokémon when An Jie quickly stopped it again, "Only flying Pokémon!"

Flying Pokémon could guarantee the speed of delivery, and they had a strong sense of direction, were not easy to get lost, and would not cause traffic problems.

"Mew~~" Got it!

With that, Mew flashed and disappeared from the spot.

As time passed, flying Pokémon gradually arrived at the edge of the lake.

The first to arrive was a group of Altaria. After landing, they waved their wings and greeted An Jie, their movements elegant.

Next to arrive were a group of Swellow and a group of Pidgeot. They were agile and their movements were clean and efficient.

Then came Aerodactyl, who looked a bit fierce. After landing, they unconsciously moved away from them.

Well, Aerodactyl seemed to be out of the question. They looked too fierce and would easily scare the children.

Finally, Dragonite and Dragonair arrived.

An Jie's eyes lit up when he saw them.

Dragonite was simply his ideal delivery worker!

First of all, Dragonite had a simple and honest appearance and smiled at everyone, making them very approachable.

Secondly, they were gentle and emotionally stable, and would not easily cause trouble.

Working in the service industry meant that you had to endure some grievances, and those who were emotionally unstable couldn't do it.

Finally, Dragonite were generally strong, so they could easily solve problems even if they encountered them!

However, although An Jie's ideal delivery worker was Dragonite, since everyone had come, he had to test them to be fair.

After the Pokémon who applied for the job were all present, Mew also came back, so An Jie asked loudly:

"Do you all want to apply for the delivery worker position?"

The Pokémon nodded upon hearing this, all looking at An Jie with anticipation.

Who wouldn't want to! Just look at the Chanseys, being hired meant getting a stable job and reaching the peak of their Pokémon life from then on.

Seeing this, An Jie said, "The number of delivery workers I need is limited, so it's impossible to choose all of you. You have to accept my test, and only those who pass the test can be hired."

"Awoo~ Awoo~~" Just tell us what the test is!

An Aerodactyl said confidently, as if it was already determined to get the delivery worker position.
