Chapter 32: Maybe he is

Taka was thrilled to receive the warm welcome. Even though the young shopkeeper looked shady, the chef was great. So, it was time for him to try the food of the spice garden.

Spice Garden, the name symbolises Alex's future ambition. He not only wanted to sell food, but also the spices he would make from the farm. This was just a trick he was using to popularise his brand.

If the food in the spice garden was good, the spice they would sell would be good too.

This was the idea that Alex was trying to implant in the customer's mind.

"Get me the best dish you have."

"Ok, sir. We are selling grilled and deep-fried chicken marinated in our special spice mix. A serving of deep-fried chicken will be two pieces, half a chicken. And a serving of grilled chicken would have four pieces, a full chicken. Both combined would cost 3 silver coins. This week we are having an opening week promotion, so the price is half of the normal. Should I confirm your order?"
