Chapter 1078: Bread?
To be honest, although Duluth, like most people, only knows a little about the ancient life of his country, he has some fixed impressions from childhood to adulthood.
Life in the Middle Ages in Europe.
As soon as he thought of this term, Duluth's heart flooded with those delicacies in the fireplace and the cold and snow warm house, although it was not abundant, but the land here was vast and sparsely populated, and just hunting was enough to eat meat every day, right?
Duluth remembered that he had seen a story similar to Chicken Soup for the Soul, about an old judge who, in order to raise a successor for himself, pretended that another farmer owed him money and asked the farmer's son to hunt for him.
Then the farmer's son went into the woods in the winter, and beat the beast's skin to the height of a man, and the first time he fell into the river, and the second time he beat more, and learned his lesson, and when he came back, he not only made a fortune, but also became the most famous judge in the land, and reached the pinnacle of his life.
More than a tall leather!
At that time, Duluth was extremely envious, with so many skins, how much meat should be beaten?
Tiger whip, bear whip, don't you have to eat your own seven orifices to spurt blood?!
However, the sight in front of him dealt him a heavy blow, making him realize that ordinary civilians are incomparable with the male protagonists in those chicken soup texts, at least, these people only have black bread to eat......
Although the martial arts were eliminated, the money earned in the East was still kept for himself, plus the 10 taels of gold that he gave at the beginning of his high-end helmet, converted to Europe, in addition to what he spent at the beginning, he also had more than five gold coins.
Such a number naturally belongs to the local tyrant level, and looking at the black bread that did not smell a trace of fragrance, Duluth thought about it and bought a piece.
He had heard of black bread, but his knowledge of it was limited to various stories, in which the rich ate white bread and the poor ate black bread.
Such food that does not arouse people's appetite will naturally not be touched in the past.
But today, he wants to try the food of his ancestors, if it weren't for the sloppy "pig food" next to him, he actually wants to try it.
As soon as the black bread was in his hands, Duluth secretly praised in his heart, although his ancestors were not rich in materials, but the quality of this person is really powerful, such a long piece of black bread, put it in his hand is so heavy, although it feels like a hard bread like a dead dough cake, but with this weight, it is enough for a person to eat for a few days, right?
This black bread feels more than 4.5 kilograms, and the price is affordable, which is simply a blessing for the poor!
"It's good, well, it doesn't taste very good, but if you can eat enough, you can ...... Yikes!"
Duluth, who was talking to himself and taking the bread to his mouth to bite, was still a little careful when he took the first bite, but he didn't feel anything abnormal, it was not delicious or not delicious, but even if it was a bad nest, people could endure it twice, so he enlarged his heart and took a big bite!
The expression on his face, which had been happy because the food was normal, suddenly froze, and then twisted into a ball, Duluth burst into tears, and covered his cheeks and spit out the black bread that he had bitten in his mouth, a little bit and painfully, and the black crumbs were stained red with piercing blood......
With a barely believing gaze, Duluth picked at the crumb with a nearby twig, where a tiny pebble stained with blood was wallowing and jubilant.
Stones!
The stone is so small, perhaps only the thickness of a noodle that it is instant noodles, and it is so small that it is placed on the ground, almost blending in with the earth, and it is not noticeable at all.
But no matter how small the pebble is, it is also a pebble!
It was this small pebble, which was bitten by Duluth on the edge, and the crumbling stone rubbed on the outside of the tooth several times, and the gums bleed as if he had brushed his teeth with a mop, and he was lucky. If it weren't for the luck of biting on the edge of the stone, Duluth estimated that he would bite so hard, but he was afraid that he would have bitten half of his teeth directly!
Fuck you, your pebbles are eaten in bread?
In an instant, Duluth was directly angry, and the most popular scolding in the mouth of foreigners in the Central Plains almost flew out, if it wasn't for his own demeanor, he would have scolded the peasant woman who sold bread.
There was still some food and water brought from the Central Plains in his backpack, and after carefully rinsing his mouth, Duluth turned his gaze to the long strip of black bread that he had already dropped on the ground.
……
Pick it up, break it open.
The sweat on his forehead flowed out all of a sudden, Duluth just wanted to buy a lottery ticket now, and he could escape from this piece of black bread, which was simply a blessing from God!
I saw that most of the edges of the broken pieces of black bread were not abnormal, and they were made of unknown wheat flour.
Most of the middle is also made of wheat flour and wheat bran and a series of miscellaneous grains, but all kinds of miscellaneous things that can't even be compared to "bits and pieces" make Duluth's eyelids jump!
What do you see?
Two or three leaves?
Duluth could also comfort himself that he couldn't die if he ate two leaves, perhaps from the window that fell from the bread.
But you tell me what these sawdust and stones mean?!!
That's just sawdust, this pebble is so big that you don't even eat chickens, wrapped in a ball in the center of the bread, you fucking wrap buns!
Duluth was simply furious, the pieces of sawdust and dozens of stones were obviously deliberate, all wrapped in the center of the bread, and I don't know if it was the ingenuity of the bread maker, there were not many stones scattered outside the center, so that the buyer would not break a little and discover the secret inside.
When he found this, Duluth almost wanted to collapse, this black bread was already unpalatable enough, hard and cracked, and with wheat bran and other things, it was even more sour, and every bite was a torture to his taste buds.
If it's such an unpalatable thing, you still have to add some "ingredients" to it?
I was tricked in front of the peasant woman who sold bread, but the other party didn't seem to be embarrassed at all, and the other civilians around him were the same, and they seemed to be used to seeing this kind of profiteer's behavior.
Moreover, when he saw Duluth throwing the bread on the ground with hatred, the two children who were eating "pig food" next to him ran over with bright eyes, and without saying a word, they collected the bread on the ground, tore and checked that a piece of bread was normal, and then happily stuffed it into his mouth, and swallowed it little by little with saliva.
Seeing such a scene, Duluth's anger disappeared at once, and he knew that it was he who was wrong.
All the people here, including these two children, are used to black bread, and even know how to deal with it, and this person who has stupidly run over from the 21st century is a heretic!
He could even guess that the merchants who passed by to buy brown bread might have also become accustomed to the much cheaper brown bread with stones.
However, how can the beautiful country in my imagination be like this!?
