A Mid-level (Middle-aged) Office Worker’s Laid-Back Industrial Revolution in Another World
Episode 639: Family meeting of the Glenville family (Chef de Cabinet).
"We're home.
"Yes, sir. Welcome back, you guys.
When the chef returned home, the chef's wife greeted him on the doorstep.
"Father, welcome back."
Hilda sits at the table and looks at the apple and says:
"You're early today.
What's the matter with you?
"Hmm?... hmm.
Actually, I need to talk to the two of you... "
"Ma... no way! You, go apologize to the Count right away!
"Father! What are you doing!
My wife and daughter say it on an amazing sword screen.
"Huh?... no, I didn't do anything wrong???
Not so much what? When I have to talk to you, is that when there's something wrong?
"" No!?
"... no, I'll talk to my family about the problem in the first place. I'll take care of it myself.
The chef sighs.
"So? What did you do?
"He said he didn't do anything.
"Father, are you sure you're okay?
"Hey, even Hilda.
It's okay, nothing's wrong.
"Huh...
Then wait a moment. Because dinner is almost here.
"Ah."
The head chef started dressing in his bedroom.
After dinner with the whole family, we are all gathered at the table after the cleanup.
"Ha, you're done cleaning up.
It was early today because there are only 3 of us.
The chef's wife says happily.
"Right."
"Ah."
"So, you, what do you need to talk to me about?
Are you finally going to be independent?
The chef's wife asks.
"I've been saying this for a long time, but I'm not willing to be independent.
You know that well enough, don't you?
"Well.
"Father, can I stay too?
"Um, it's a family meeting.
It's... tacheo-related.
"" Dear Kitamizato?
Chef's wife and Hilda tilt their necks.
"Ah.
Next time Takeo will become a nobleman and be entrusted by the King's Capital with an object called the Institute.
"" Nobility!?
"Oh, the building... we're going to be able to get to the government building.
"Heh.
Well, does that mean you won't let Master Kitamizato go wild?
Make a statement with Hilda poking at the core.
"Hilda, you're right.
So, the lab itself has absolutely nothing to do with us.
I don't know what the problem is... it's a haul to build a coffee shop on the ground floor of the lab building.
"Coffee shop? Isn't that good?
He's a grocery store around here.
The chef's wife answers.
"Oh... so... but.
Well, do we even talk about that area?
The head chef gave an overview of the coffee shop on the ground floor of the institute and a rough interval.
The chef's wife and Hilda, who have heard the explanation, are thinking about it.
The chef is waiting for the two of them to react while silently sipping tea.
"Hey... that's not as a cook (...), is it?
"Ah. Only two people dispatch the food from the Elvis family.
Other services, cleaning, accounting... customer service would be the main thing.
But with no evening sales (...), lunch during the day is the main thing that a real cook does.
"Mm-hmm... Kitamizato-sama's thoughts are too diagonal to follow...
The actual working time is about 1 o'clock past the 9 o'clock section bell.
"Those are the cooks.
A customer service clerk would come to work before the 3: 00 section bell and finish before the 9: 00 section bell.
"Mm-hmm... I wish I could make a dime, but...
Hilda, what do we do?
"Father, can't you cook?
"Um...
At the busiest noon... you're probably in a state of war.
In Hilda's workload, cooks are only in the way.
Plus, 150 meals of meals and cleaning up, washing dishes? It wouldn't be such an easy thing.
"Right.
You'll be followed by meals and accountants at noon.
If Hilda cooks, I guess it's time to prepare breakfast the next day.
But you serve the same dish every day for breakfast (...), right?
You'll remember to make it in a short time... except for the basics of cooking, right?
"It is.
That's why I'm not going to be training as a cook (...).
Suppose you can cook... right. Maybe you can cook on the regular menu from after lunch until closing.
"What am I supposed to do?
Hilda turns to her parents in trouble.
"Do I have to give you an answer right away?
Plus, there aren't many customer service clerks. At least one more person... no, I need two more if I'm going to adjust my work schedule.
Who are you speaking to?
"I haven't decided yet.
Instead, you need all kinds of opinions (...) to find out how much expenses you need.
"Okay.
I'm going to hit an ex-companion who's going to take it as needing two.
"Oh, a former Elvis cook would have no problem... because they all have shops.
"That's right.
Not many of them are housewives... but they're not here, and I'll ask.
"Oh, excuse me, please.
And, yes, we're going to recruit one or two new Elvis cooks.
"Yes... Hilda, you want to take it?
"Huh? 'Cause you don't belong anywhere, so you wouldn't get it, would you?
"Is that true, too?
Hey, you know, if it's a coffee shop at the lab, do you qualify for it in the future?
"Hmm... if cooking in the short afternoon provided a decent foundation... I guess.
"Well... father, think a little.
Hilda holds the answer.
"Oh, bother me carefully.
I can also say no because I was only the first to hear from you.
"Doesn't your father's position get any worse?
"It doesn't make sense for anyone who doesn't want to work.
Takeo will also know the area. So Hilda should also think hard on herself.
"Okay.
Hilda snorted.
