Enforcer's Handbook

Throughout the night, these two door gods stood guard at the door of the kitchen like statues. It was not until all the dishes, including desserts, were sent to the front hall that they allowed Song Lan to leave the kitchen and rest in the staff lounge. .

Not long after, the head chef also came in.

He seemed to have finally recalled his identity as an MI7 agent, winked at Song Lan, and whispered, I'll let the boys watch the kitchen.

Song Lan had long heard that the goal of the conservatives was to restore the aristocratic system before the Third War, but he did not expect that they had already begun to implement these plans.

The process of preparing this dinner made him feel as if he had really returned to the Middle Ages. All dishes must be reported to members of the Guards for review one day in advance. The ingredients and proportions required must be strictly reviewed and prepared the next day. During the dinner, no ingredients or condiments other than those listed on the list are allowed in the kitchen.

After each dish is completed, special members of the Guards will conduct a poison test. Only after it is confirmed to be correct, will it be taken to the front hall. Their review of each dish is also almost harsh, which makes Song Lan suspect that these Guards Even if the members have never worked as chefs, they must have learned the corresponding skills.

I wonder if it’s a function of the prosthetic eyes, but they can even measure the doneness of meat.

This posture once made Song Lan suspect that if someone messed up the dinner, they would probably be arrested by these members of the Guards and taken to the square and directly sent to the guillotine.

Even the head chef lay down on the sofa with relief after entering the room.

What is more torturous than physical strength is mental fatigue. Song Lan feels that the chefs who serve the Iris Consortium are always on tenterhooks every time they stir the pot or add a handful of condiments.

I really don’t know any bastard chef who would be willing to work for these people.

In comparison, company people are much better.

They pay more attention to the quality of food and dining experience, and don't care about these red tape rituals.

Does every member of the Iris Consortium behave like this when they come to your place?

Song Lan couldn't help but ask. After tonight, Rang was worried about what would happen if he lurked into the Iris Consortium.

That's not true.

The head chef shook his head, The person here today is Carida Gilvis, the wife of the current leader of the Iris Consortium. The person she is hosting is Lord Winter, who controls three large-scale elite knights. This is more like a family political meeting, and recently the core members of the consortium are trying their best to win over the lords of these knights.

Why?

Infighting among consortiums is an eternal topic.

There was some gloating in the tone of the head chef, Because of Isabel's incident, others have seen hope again. Their consortium is not the only one in the group. Except for the current leader, Richard Gilvis, The Capello and Monk families both control a large number of knights and also have considerable political influence in the coalition government.

Song Lan was a little confused by the series of names, which made him feel as if he had really returned to the Middle Ages where aristocrats struggled.

But now he understands why outsiders call them the Iris Consortium, instead of referring to them by their family name like they do with the Foster family.

You don't need to remember everyone's names. You just need to know that many people within the Iris Consortium have questioned the identity of Isabel's successor. Many people originally suggested that women should not control the consortium. She What happened in District 7 just gave the other two families a reason to oppose her.

Having said this, the head chef approached Song Lan and said in a voice that only two people could hear, If we continue to develop at this momentum, we don't need to wait for the reformists to take action. They may start fighting within their consortium themselves. Recently, Isabel My mother is very worried about this matter.

Wouldn't it be dangerous for me to enter the castle at this time?

certainly.

Although he and Song Lan have only known each other for two days, the head chef is sincerely worried about him. People from the Ke family are the gunmen.

How to say?

They probably ordered you to poison Isabel's food.

Since ancient times, the struggle between nobles has been a matter of life and death. Keeping Isabel confined at home is not only a punishment for her by the Gilvis family, but also a way to protect her.

This seemingly majestic city is actually filled with overt and covert struggles in every corner.

You have to come out alive, I'll be waiting for you outside.

The atmosphere in the staff lounge became a little heavy. The head chef looked at Song Lan with deep eyes, We will wait for you to lead us to spread the reputation of the restaurant to every corner of the world.

Um.

Song Lan nodded, Definitely next time.

Immediately afterwards, the door to the employee lounge was pushed open.

As expected, the people who entered the door were members of Kalida's personal guard. However, these people all wore the same armor, and even the difference in stature was not obvious. Song Lan could not tell their specific identities at all.

Madam wishes to meet you.

They read the order to Song Lan in an unquestionable tone.

Song Lan stretched, stood up and followed the knight.

The dinner had been over for some time, and Lord Winter seemed to have left. When they entered, Kalida's personal guards occupied the entire kitchen.

Not far from him stood a noble lady. Her skin was well maintained and her appearance looked like she was only in her early thirties. As for her real age...

Song Lan had heard Ivan mention before that her husband Richard Gilvis was already an old man in his seventies.

I'm very satisfied with today's dinner.

Kalida didn't seem to like wasting time on small talk, or because of her status, there was no need to waste time with a chef from a neutral country. Get ready and follow him later.

Obviously, the members of the Iris Consortium are not good at inviting people. From the moment they can remember, they have been accustomed to a life of being surrounded by others and bossing them around.

Such a blunt tone made Song Lan think of those difficult bosses in his mind.

Fortunately, he is relatively lucky. He is a true leader with a kind heart, caring for his employees, and easy to talk to.

After giving the order, Kalida did not stay in the kitchen for a long time. She passed by Song Lan and walked out of the door, leaving only a member of the personal guard to interact with Song Lan.

After everyone left, the remaining members of the Guards also began to explain to Song Lan the content of the next work, Miss, you have a bad appetite recently. You have half an hour to think about the menu. You only have one chance. If If you can’t satisfy the eldest lady, you will come back here tonight.”
