There are a lot of chores involved in moving, but fortunately, Zhang Daye and Tom don't have much luggage. All their personal belongings are just a few clothes and toiletries.
When she left, Mrs. Molly wanted to pay Zhang Daye's wages no matter what, but he was not willing to ask for it. He had received so many favors for nothing. The so-called work was more like Goodman finding an interface to support him.
In the end, he refused, so he had to accept half of it. When Little Bayer went to play with him in the future, he would still teach him how to read or tell him stories. However, he did not agree to Mrs. Molly's offer to help clean the tavern.
Taking Tom back to the tavern, he first threw away some useless sundries left by old Bob, replaced the bed and bedding with his own, and then placed Tom's nest that he got in a lottery next to the bed.
[Tom’s nest: A handmade round cat nest with soft cushions inside. It is Tom’s favorite cat nest. 】
After cleaning the bedroom and other rooms, Zhang Daye thought it would take a long time to clean the tavern by himself, but he ignored Tom's ability.
Tom's wish is to be a happy domestic cat. Although Tom lived a very comfortable life when he stayed with the Goodman family, eating and sleeping without any worries, it was not his home after all.
Now that the owner has bought this tavern, this will be his home from now on, right?
Who can understand the feeling of a homeless cat longing for a home?
This mood brought about Tom's current state: holding a rag in his right hand, a mop in his left hand, and a brush on his left foot. Tom was multitasking, cleaning and retreating at the same time.
When Zhang Da also finished cleaning the bedroom on the second floor and was about to go downstairs to throw away the garbage, he saw what it meant to have a bright, clean and new window. If the floor had not been made of wood, people would have been reflected.
Tom was exhausted and slumped on the ground with his back against the bar, wiping the sweat from his forehead.
"Tom, you did this? You're too strong!" Zhang Da also looked at the clean floor, almost reluctant to put his foot down.
Tom smiled when he heard Zhang Daye's compliment and nodded. He wanted to rest for a while and eat something.
Zhang Da also looked at the space inside the tavern. First of all, the door was two and a half meters high. In addition to the ordinary door leaves, there were also two waist doors. The door was now closed tightly, and a temporarily closed sign was hung outside.
It is common for people in this world to be two meters tall, and there are not a few people who are close to three meters tall. Therefore, when opening restaurants, bars, etc., it is necessary to build the doors and ceilings higher.
This tavern is considered conservative. The ceiling on the first floor seems to be only about four meters. If Urki from Supernova comes here, be careful of hitting the chandelier on the roof when you stand up.
After entering the door, there is an aisle in the middle, with four wine tables and matching chairs on each side. At the end of the aisle is a bar, with three round stools placed in front of the bar.
The wall behind the bar is equipped with shelves for storing wine. There is a gap on the left hand side of the shelf, and a small door leading to the back is opened on the right hand side. You can go straight upstairs, turn right and enter the kitchen, or go around. Behind the stairs, the stairwell leads to the less obvious basement wine cellar.
There were small arched shutters on three walls, and sunlight could only leak in through the limited gaps, making the whole tavern look a little dark.
There were several pots of unknown green plants in the corner, which seemed to have not been carefully taken care of. The entire tavern hall was quite large, and because the wine tables were far apart, it looked a bit empty.
It was really hard for Tom to clean such a big hall in such a short time.
Zhang Da also looked at the gap on the left side of the bar and took out a prop from the inventory.
[Tom’s big refrigerator]
After opening the refrigerator, I felt a rush of cold air. It had been stored in the inventory for more than twenty days. Both the refrigerator and the food inside were still in their original condition.
The plug of the refrigerator can be plugged into the free socket on the wall - the technology in this world is very strange, and there are all the necessary appliances. The faucets and gas stoves in the kitchen also made him a little confused, but Zhang Da also forgot to ask about the water, electricity and gas bills. Where did you pay it? Maybe it’s included in the tax?
Zhang Da also took out roast chicken, sausage, cooked steak, milk, fruit and two ice creams from the refrigerator and placed them on the bar.
Tom smelled the fragrance and floated up, licking his lips and looking at Zhang Daye expectantly.
"Let's get started. That's pretty much all we can eat right away. Let's just lay it out like this for lunch. We'll buy some ingredients and recipes later."
Zhang Da can also cook, but most of the time he has to rely on Du Niang to follow the recipes step by step. Speaking of which, this tavern didn't even hire a chef before.
According to Old Bob, most people come here to drink, not to eat. Just prepare some convenient cooked food and snacks for drinking every day. If that doesn't work, you can also order food from nearby restaurants and make a little profit. .
After the meal, Zhang Da also placed a small blanket on the bar for Tom to have a good rest while he counted the drinks himself.
Not long after Old Bob finished his last purchase, he checked the list of drinks he left behind. The retail prices ranged from 500 Baileys to 10,000 Baileys.
500 beli is about the price of a curry rice in a small restaurant, and 10,000 beli is almost enough for an ordinary person's monthly living expenses - if you are more frugal.
After looking at the purchase price, Zhang Zhangda also realized that this pub is very dark. Most of the profits of these wines are more than 50%, and some of them are 60%. Even so, Old Bob's pricing is still rated as "not good" by people. "Expensive" level.
Maybe this is really a common thing? Zhang Da, who has never done business, also said that for the time being, he just needs to follow the example of old Bob.
When Zhang Daye walked out of the wine cellar, Tom was still snoring on the bar, looking like he was sleeping more soundly than ever before. Zhang Da didn't bother to wake him up and ran to the yard to exercise.
The small yard attached behind the tavern is about enough to be used as half a basketball court, which is barely enough for Zhang Tatsuya to exercise. To be honest, he doesn't really want to be the "running Tatsuya".
After practicing for a while, Zhang Da also remembered the things that were inconvenient to take out in the past, including some of the weapons he got through "luck draws."
[Tom's sword: The Western sword used by Tom when he was a palace guard. It is very sharp. 】
Tom has a lot of experience as a cat boy. Being a bodyguard is not a big deal, although he will still be punished by Jerry.
Zhang Da also swung it a few times, but he felt that the size was still a bit too small for him. As for the corresponding sword of Jerry and the sword of the little mouse Teffy, they could only be used as toothpicks.
