Bhaksana Resto
"The distillation you're talking about, is it that uses the backflow of condensed steam to obtain a pure liquid, steam distillation?" Heru Cokro asked with a smile on his face while randomly picking up the distillation bottle from the table.
Lambert's eyes widened, he exclaimed in excitement: “Yes, that's right. Oh God. Your wisdom is truly extraordinary.” It was true that he was a straightforward and honest person, once the alchemist knew that Heru Cokro was not a layman, he immediately changed his attitude, and praised his master.
“Lambert, if you have time, you can visit the winemaking workshop, and make some improvements to their refining techniques. If the amelioration is successful, I believe the Financial Bureau will be very willing to pay a considerable remuneration, more than enough to support and fund your research.” Heru Cokro gave Lambert a pass he could not refuse.
The moment Lambert heard the word research fund, a white bright light suddenly appeared in his eyes, and he shouted, “No problem! Rest assured Your Majesty, leave this matter to me!”
“As for research on mineral refining, you can work with the Armament Division, as they have a great demand for refined iron. In addition, the White Wolf Mine Farm may need your services as well, as it is undoubtedly your profession in finding better ways to purify higher purity minerals, he said, in this case it is gold metal. In short, I hope the alchemy workshop does not stand alone, but actively cooperates with the affairs of the region, achieving the best of both worlds.”
Lambert had long laid down his arrogance and prejudice, and he respectfully said, "Our lord, your wisdom is as deep as the ocean, Lambert will follow your wise words."
"Good," before Heru Cokro left, he took out the boar fangs, which had long been acquired and untouched, and said with a smile, "Is there any way that you can make them into accessories?"
Lambert picked it up and said carefully, "I can give it a try."
"Good, I'll wait for your good news." As he finished his sentence, Heru Cokro turned around and left.
He immediately went to the market after leaving the alchemy workshop, gritted his teeth and spent 500 gold to purchase the advanced pier blueprints. Ever since he obtained the manufacturing guidance of the warship Jung Java, he could not wait any longer to turn this warship into a reality.
But the Jung Jawa warship was a medium-sized warship, and could only be produced by an advanced shipyard. That said, if he wanted to build a strong naval warship force, he would have to use an additional 500 gold from the limited territory capital funds, spending it on the progress of the shipyard.
When he returned to the ruling residence, he saw Laxmi and Renata were gossiping at the side. Renata looked rather sad, and Laxmi comforted him. Heru Cokro asked out of curiosity, “What are you two gossiping about? Very suspicious.”
Renata remained silent, while Laxmi curled her lips and said, “Brother, haven't you promised Renata a restaurant before? But according to the prices of the Construction Division, a restaurant was extremely expensive! Adding workers salaries, money for raw materials, small pieces here and there, it would require at least 30 gold coins. Plus there is no promise of the future of the restaurant, because we still do not know whether the residents want to spend time in the restaurant. That's why Renata's brother is very doubtful about that.”
Heru Cokro nodded and as he looked towards Renata, he asked, “What did Laxmi say, is that true?”
“Paduka, I am indeed a little worried and I am not financially able to do this. I'm afraid I'll have to disappoint you this time. I think it is better for me to stay in the residence of the ruler, serving and caring for everyone as always.” Renata resigned to his fate.
Renata was overjoyed, and said: "No, no, no, 10% of the shares are enough for me, I dare not ask for more."
“You shouldn't reject it, I don't mean to leave you with 50%. But to manage a restaurant, capital is just a starting point. You need to hire workers, renovate restaurants, research menus, a series of important jobs that you need to personally handle as a restaurant manager. To be honest, having 50% shares just by giving capital already takes a big profit from you.” Heru Cokro explained his intentions to Renata.
Before Renata could say anything, Laxmi already clapped her hands happily, laughed, and said, "Sister, you don't have to be polite with my brother, either, he had just plundered a massive fortune from the robbers recently."
Heru Cokro glared at Laxmi, and continued, “Of course, I will not own 50% of this stake for myself, but rather 30% of it will belong to Fatimah and the other 20% to Laxmi. Think of it as an allowance from a brother to his sister.”
“Yes,” Laxmi did not expect that she would benefit from it as well, the little money grouch immediately hugged Heru Cokro's arm, with a sweet and greasy voice said, “Kak, you are very kind, you are, you are very dear Laxmi, Hee~hee~hee!”
Heru Cokro smiled, stroked his little head and said, "Thank God you know it, try not to be too naughty."
Renata watched the scene, and she accepted the offer casually, with a joyful face she said, “Then, I will thank you master for supporting me. Your Majesty, please name the restaurant!”
Heru Cokro pondered for a moment, looking for a good name in his mind, then nodded his head and said, “Call it Bhaksana Resto. It has the meaning of like to eat, it is suitable for the name of a restaurant.”
“Good, this name is good!” The little beneficiary was making a sound and clapping.
Renata was also pleased with the name, and said, “Thank you, for his name Sire. There is one more thing, if I leave the ruler's residence to the restaurant, who will be in charge of the kitchen of the ruler's residence?”
“There is nothing to worry about, after the official residence is finished, other than me, Laxmi and the sisters, the others will eat in their own homes, no need to cook large portions anymore. Especially when the restaurant is ready, if we crave your food, we can go to the restaurant to get free food. Please don't hate us for eating free food.” Heru Cokro answered his question and made a small joke at the same time.
"Our face, you'll always be welcome at the restaurant!" Renata responded to the joke sincerely.
“As for the new ruler's residence chef, I will hand it over to you to choose his successor. The region is not like before anymore, now there are already several chefs.” Heru Cokro ends the conversation by giving a mission to Renata.
"Your Majesty." Renata nodded.
