Dragon Master novel Maximilian novel Chapter 708

The manager said with great embarrassment, “But when we employed the Japanese chef, it was stated in the contract that if he is not satisfied, he can go on strike, and that if we force him to return to work, he can leave directly. Furthermore, we have to pay him a fortune as compensation.”

After listening to the manager’s words, the crowd were chattering and defending Archie against such unfair contract.

“I suppose you have hired a Japanese master. How do you hire a cook like this? It seems you don’t have a cook at all.”

“Well, the food culture in our country enjoys a long history, for those who plagiarize others are no match. The sushi originated from our rice ball in the past, the sashimi from our past preserved raw fish. What are they showing off here?”

“Ask the chef to make an apology, or we’ll go to the kitchen for him. He’s gone too far.”

Maximilian frowned and said to the manager, “We can’t have the puffer fish sashimi without the Japanese chef? It’s so ridiculous! Is your puffer fish sashimi cooked in public to show guests the skills?”

“Yeah. The puffer fish sashimi is made by the Japanese chef in front of the guests. The puffer fish meat is highly toxic and it’s quite demanding for the chef to prepare the sashimi on spot, so we have no way but to hire a Japanese chef.”

Maximilian smiled and said, “Bring the puffer fish and the knife here. I’ll prepare the puffer fish sashimi.”

The manager was in a shock, but then he shook his head heavily.

“I can’t do that. Puffer fish is highly poisonous and deadly. Not everyone can handle it. If something goes wrong, I can’t afford the consequence.”

It had been said since ancient times that eating puffer fish means risking one’s life.

Since there were a lot of neurotoxins in the viscera and blood of puffer fish, if its viscera and blood were not cleaned thoroughly, one would certainly be poisoned to death.

“Just do as you’re told. How do you know he can’t do it?” Canaan glared at the manager and tried to show that he would tipped the table if the manager didn’t do as Maximilian said.

The onlookers echoed Canaan.

“Just do it. They are not cooking for a meal but to relieve their anger. Can’t you satisfy even such a requirement? If you can’t do it, I suppose you’d better close your door as soon as possible.”

“Is your Kyoten Izakaya so cowardly that you should be afraid of a Japanese chef? Now since the guests deal with it by themselves, you should say you can’t do it. What can you do actually? Otherwise you ask the chef to go out and cook.”

The manager saw that many guests were dissatisfied, then he looked at Maximilian helplessly, “The puffer fish is really poisonous. You can’t do it. We can’t afford any accident.”

“You don’t need to be responsible for it. I have cooked much puffer fish by myself. Now, hurry up and get everything ready.” Maximilian said with a straight face.

The onlookers chattered even more loudly. The curtain door of the kitchen was lifted, and then the Japanese chef in uniform pushed the cart out, with arrogance in his face.

The manager’s heart jolted when he saw the chef, feeling it would go terrible. So he ran to the chef and intended to stop him.

But the chef directly pushed the manager away and walked quickly to Maximilian with a cart.

The chef kept his head up, stood upright and said with arrogance, “Ignorant guy. Not everyone can cook the puffer fish. Even in our country, only those who have passed a specific assessment can cook puffer fish sashimi, and only excellent chefs can pass the assessment.”
