Once Dante opened the front door, the customers rushed in. It only took few minutes to have three floors of Carpe Diem fully filled of people. The waiters took the customers' orders and send it to the chefs. After a few minutes, good smells that coming out from the kitchen covered the whole restaurant.
"What is this roasted smell? It's smell delicious."
"Ahh, what's with the sizzling sound? Hurry up and bring me my food!"
"I'm dying here waiter! Please give me my food first!"
Those fragment and sound were like a torture for them that had never eaten any good food in their life.
After a moment, the waiters started to bring out the dishes. [Grilled Red Devil Lobster], [Roasted Mad Boar], [Daydream Beef Steak], [Cheese Sandwich] and so on. From high-end dishes to ordinary ones. Perfect for variety of customers from different backgrounds. These monsters are from rank F to rank D category. Even though these monster corpses are low ranking but they're still quite expensive for Dante. After Dante had paid and renovates the restaurant, he had spent the last 40% of his gold coins to buy these monster corpses. (For monster, Rank F is the lowest while Rank S is the highest.)
'High risk, high return.' That was what Dante was thinking that time. He's very confident of his ability in earning money.
The customers were very satisfied with the foods and Carpe Diem's high-end and classic design. They had never tasted such delicious before, some customers even asked the waiters how the chef season and cook the monster meats. But Carpe Diem's employees would never expose the recipes to anyone because they all had signed magic contracts.
Some middle classes customers complained that Carpe Diem's dishes are pricey but after they heard Luca's explanation about the monster corpses price and first day discounts, they could only pay the bills faithfully. They didn't want to get blacklisted by the only restaurant that they could taste delicious foods. Customers like veteran hunters and rich merchants had no problems with the prices because they're not poor.
After that day, Carpe Diem has become one of the hot-spot in Eva Consortium. The only high-end restaurant that can cook delicious [Monster Dishes]. Just in few months, Dante had earned huge profits, far more than his initial investment. He decided to call a construction company to renovate Carpe Diem and build another 6 floors on it making the highest floor which is the ninth floor only privileged to VIP customers. Since Carpe Diem would always be crowded with people, the 9th floor had become the symbol of power and rich in Eva Consortium because it would often get visited by powerful and famous figures. (The building construction methods is more advance in this fantasy world, since it was based on magics.)
Dante doesn't like publicity so he would often ask Luca to replace him to get interviewed by the reporters. Currently, the public only knows that Carpe Diem is actually a subsidiary company of Paradise Enterprise. The president of Paradise had helped manager Luca and his family when he was in his lowest point and personally build up the restaurant with his brilliant ideas.
Some of the people like merchants that interested in Paradise Enterprise had hired information brokers to check on Dante. But they only know Dante's name and have no ideas that he's from Salvatore Family. (Dante had left out Salvatore name when registering in Merchant Association.)
