Chapter 86: Meeting Gift
"I'm very sorry, Mr. Buruk, just after you came to inquire, we suddenly received a few more reservations. My trustee asked you if you want to pay for the room reservation, but there was no reply, so..."
The owner of the hotel, Fox, said with a grin, but he was cursing in his heart. It was not his fault that the rooms were rented out. After all, the man didn't want to pay the deposit in the first place.
However, he still couldn't offend the man. The fat man Buruk also had some business in Torrendo. So naturally, he wanted to maintain a friendly relationship.
When Fox said this, Buruk realized his mistake. He just made a verbal reservation at the time, thinking that he could reserve the rooms simply using his reputation, but he didn't expect that he failed to book the rooms. Buruk thought for a second and then explained to the people behind him.
"Mr. Patchell, I wanted to make sure of your itinerary before I booked it, but I didn't expect such a thing to happen. It was my negligence."
Buruk explained respectfully, it seemed that this person named Patchell was clearly above him.
Originally, he still wanted to say something, but Buruk caught a glimpse of Osborne who had just come downstairs.
"Osborne, why are you here?"
Buruk was a little surprised. He had previously competed with Osborne in many fields. Recently, he had lost the competition repeatedly in the beverage industry because the other party was the first to become the dealer of Cola. So naturally, he had resentment in his heart. At this time, he saw Osborne. He seemed to figure out something.
"Hehe, let me introduce you to Mr. Ian Gray. He is my business partner and the creator of Cola. He is also the principal of Luna Nova Magical Academy. This time he brought his students to take the exam, so I want to show my hospitality."
Osborn almost heard everything, so he quickly understood that it was the rooms he had booked for Reiner that caused Buruk's current embarrassment. He couldn't help gloating over Buruk's embarrassment.
"Cola...! "
Cola was a thing that Buruk couldn't stop thinking about recently. He also saw the business opportunity of this kind of beverage, but Osborn got the exclusive agency right one step ahead of him, so he was very frustrated.
But after hearing Osborne's introduction, Buruk had a glimmer of hope. Maybe he could gain the trust of the cola maker and got permission to sell cola from him.
However, this illusion was broken before it took shape.
Buruck stared at the young man who reached out to him in a daze. Wasn't this the guy who had been in conflict with him in the port in the past?
At that time, Buruk was rushing to Lake Wagner to discuss important matters with several partners. When he saw Reiner dressed in an ordinary dress and blocked his way, he habitually cursed a few words. He didn't know that he was the inventor of Cola.
'Shit, shit, shit...'
An awkward smile appeared on Buruk's face, and he gently shook hands with Reiner, not knowing what to say. He could only hope that the young man had forgotten what happened that day.
"Mr. Buruk, the view of Lake Wagner is not bad, right?"
The words of Reiner made Buruk feel like falling into an ice cave.
This guy remembered clearly!
"Hehe, I was in a hurry at that time, so I was being quite impolite, and I hope Mr. Ian Gray will not keep it in mind."
The corner of Buruk's mouth twitched. All the bad things happened at the same time. It was really not his day today.
"Buruk, if there is no room here, let's go somewhere else."
At this time, the father who hadn't paid much attention to the dispute here before spoke up. He was slightly unhappy, but he still maintained the basic politeness.
"Mr. Patchell, you are right."
Buruk nodded and said yes, making Reiner a little curious about who this Mr. Patchell was.
"We can't delay the rest of the two young masters, I also know another hotel, the rooms there are also very good!"
Glancing at the two teenagers who had impatient expressions, Buruk was not in the mood to talk to Osborne and Reiner.
"Luna Nova Magical Academy, isn't that school closed yet?"
One of the boys suddenly said. He should have heard Osborne's explanation before. At this time, his freckled face showed a faint pride, and he asked rather proudly.
"I don't know, probably soon."
The other boy answered, and he glanced at Reiner deliberately, the meaning was obvious.
"What are you talking about, Roger, James?"
Their mother said reproachfully, and returned an apologetic and helpless look at Reiner.
It seemed that the parents were okay, but their children still needed to learn some manners.
After thinking about it, Reiner took out two test papers from his storage bag and walked to the mother.
"Madam, these two well-behaved children must have also come to take the magic test. It happens that I have the latest test questions from the Rainbow Tower this year, which can significantly improve the level of basic knowledge of magic. We are very sorry about what happened today. I will give it to you as a gift."
The two test papers were naturally not the latest test questions of the Rainbow Tower, but the super-hard math problems written by Reiner when he was bored. This was collected from major mathematics monographs and could be called a math Olympiad level problem.
The difficulty and depth of these questions were far beyond the requirements for the promotion exam. Ordinary apprentices who had not undergone special problem-solving training may not even be able to answer a single question. It was a perfect gift for those naughty children.
Reiner now only hated that he didn't come to this world sooner, otherwise, he would definitely complete a thick mathematical book to give those two children as their birthday gift.
"Thank you."
Mrs. Patchell originally thought that the principal was very handsome, so her attitude was moderate; but now the other party generously gave her these examination papers, she felt that Reiner was a kind gentleman even more.
Glancing at the test questions, Mrs. Patchell, who had basic magic literacy, did not know how to answer the above questions, but she also knew that the questions above were not easy, and she believed Reiner's words even more.
Mr. Patchell didn't say anything, he was talking with Buruk about where to go next, and he had no time to be distracted.
Only two bratty kids were looking at the thick test paper with pale faces. They glared at Reiner, seeming to curse him constantly in their hearts.
Why would anyone give test papers as a gift!
And their mother seemed to be very grateful!
They just said a few words about the guy's school, but the guy used such a vicious method to avenge them!
Reiner smiled meaningfully. The two brothers should have also come to take the mock exam. It just so happened that Reiner could use them to test the difficulty of his test paper. Of course, if they could meet again in the future.
Soon, Mr. Patchell finished his talk and glanced at the test paper in his wife's hand. He didn't say anything, and then he took the family and left the hotel. Of course, Buruk followed, and before he walked out the door, he had a complicated look when he glanced at Reiner.
"Patchell is the municipal councilor of Lamia, a neighboring city. He is also a second-ring mage. Buruk probably wants to please him in order to get more resources in Lamia. But he is such a dumb fellow."
Osborne waited until they had all left before explaining to Reiner.
"I hope they can have a good night."
Reiner shrugged and said with a teasing tone
