The market is rich in goods, bright cherries, fragrant lemons, sweet mangoes, small strawberries and some seasonal vegetables are neatly placed on the stalls waiting for customers to come to choose, and some vendors who buy buckets, pots and other miscellaneous goods are also shouting their products, asking, answering, bargaining, all kinds of voices come together to compose a symphony full of life.

Ning Xuan looked all the way over and then turned back to his boss and asked, "Ansai, what do you want to eat at noon today?" ”

Anse El shrugged, "Whatever, as long as it's delicious." But after saying that, he still emphasized, "I definitely don't want to eat barbecue anymore!" ”

"Uh...... All right. It seems that his boss really can't bear the barbecue, Ning Xuan nodded, "Are there no ingredients at home?" ”

"Of course." Anse El replied in the affirmative, "I don't have any merit in cooking other than being able to burn down the kitchen, so if you want to buy something to fill the kitchen, and besides, the food in the store yesterday is the last one, and it was put there when someone else came, so let's buy it all together today, and if you have a lot of things, you can hire someone to send them home without us having to worry about it." ”

"Well, let me think about it." Since it was decided to start the fire at home again, Ning Xuan really wanted to buy some things necessary for cooking, and after thinking about it in his heart, Ning Xuan turned his head and asked Anse Elle, "Let's come one by one, first go and buy the necessary foods to make zuò, this will be stored for a long time, we can buy a little more, and then we will also buy those seasonings, and then buy some vegetables and meat." Seeing Anse Air open his mouth to say something, Ning Xuan grabbed in front of him and spoke, "Meat is not only roasted, but meat cooked by other methods can also have a good taste." ”

Thinking of the smooth and delicious steamed eggs that Ning Xuan had made, Anse El decided to believe his chubby little guy for once, nodded and didn't say anything more.

Since the city of Fra is stored as the main city, then Ning Xuan can be sure that the things that can be bought here represent the highest level in the world at this stage, the people here generally use barbecue and flour to make dough cakes to eat and then make vegetables and fruits, I don't know if their cooking skills are too lacking or because they are too lazy to spend effort, in addition to making barbecue and pastries, vegetables and fruits are generally eaten raw, although this can ensure the original taste of vegetables and fruits to the greatest extent, but for a long time, It's still too boring.

As far as seasonings are concerned, in addition to the oil and salt found in Ansel's shop pù that day and the sauce used to make zuò barbecue, Ning Xuan also found some spices in the market, such as pepper and cumin, but there is no trace of the soy sauce and vinegar used by the people of the Celestial Empire. In terms of staple food, in addition to barbecue and flour products, of course Ning Xuan also saw the rice that Ansel didn't like very much, Ning Xuan looked at the rice that was no different from his original world with some confusion and didn't know why Ansel's bad opinion of this was so high, but as a Celestial Empire who grew up from snacks and rice, you can still survive if you let Ning Xuan go without rice for three or five days, if he doesn't eat it for a long time, then he will definitely feel as if something is missing, so although Anse Air disagrees, But Ning Xuan still bought some rice and decided to try to make it.

Although Ansel has a high enthusiasm for eating, but that is only to satisfy the tip of his tongue, he has no enthusiasm for making zuò, but he has a little benefit, or it is his character, Ansel is afraid of trouble, very special afraid of trouble, so he can't see Ning Xuan's behavior of asking about everything, and with a wave of his hand, he bought a copy of all the seasonings in the market and sent them home, for Ansel's nouveau riche behavior, Ning Xuan smiled a little helplessly, "Ansai, We just need to buy what we need, and some things that we don't need are wasted to buy back. ”

"My lovely little man, just because you don't need it now doesn't mean you won't need it in the future, everything has to be tried to make new discoveries, and the same is true for food." Anse El smiled and reached out to pinch Ning Xuan's fleshy face, and said with a hearty smile.

Seeing the unbelievable eyes in the eyes of the people around him, Ning Xuan smiled bitterly in his heart, yes, it is enough to be frightened for a beauty and an ordinary-looking fat man to go on the street, and that beauty also made such a reverie intimate action, how could he not let the onlookers who were looking at this wonderful combination intentionally or unintentionally as soon as they entered the market be surprised, and obviously Anse Air also knew this, but he still made such a misleading move to satisfy his bad taste.

Anse Air is his own boss, he is the one who pays, and he is the one who makes the decision, so what else does Ning Xuan have to refute, he can only nod, "Maybe you are right, we can try it a little more, maybe there will be a surprise new discovery." Saying that, Ning Xuan pointed to the vegetable and fruit stall that he was passing by just now, "Since the staple food has been bought, let's go buy the vegetables and fruits that we need to eat today and tomorrow morning." ”

"No problem." Ansel let his bad taste be slightly satisfied from the look of the people around him who thought he was dazzled, so he nodded in agreement in a good mood at this moment.

Vegetables and fruits each picked three or four to buy enough for two people, although Ning Xuan felt that he could pick them all up, but Anse Air still asked people to pack all these things and send them home first, and then dragged Ning Xuan to continue to wander the streets and alleys, so that Ning Xuan could further understand the city.

In fact, Ning Xuan can't say what era he lives in, the people in Fra City are the outlines of Europe and the United States, this era already has glass but the dress is simple and luxurious, simple is the material is simple, Ning Xuan estimates that now is the late spring and early summer in April and May, the people here are basically wearing cloth clothes, many styles of robes but no complicated patterns, plain robes, luxury comes from some rich people will use jewelry to decorate their clothes, For example, make a belt of gemstones and tie it around the waist. The use of gold, silver and gemstones by the people of this era is straightforward and unabashed, showing a rough feeling. There are also many kinds of transportation, ranging from birds of prey as mounts to horse-drawn carriages, which come and go without disturbing each other. On both sides of the road, there are large and small shops that buy everything from cooked food materials, clothes and shoes, jewelry and spices, and so on, and the people of Fra can buy goods that meet their daily needs.

When passing by a woodsmith shop, Ning Xuan stopped and thought about it, turned his head and asked Anse Elle, "What are you using for rice?" ”

"Rice?" Anse El didn't know how Ning Xuan thought of such a question well, but he still answered him, "It's just to put water and cook it in a pot, didn't you see it when we passed by a restaurant just now, it's cooked like that." ”

"Just now?" Ning Xuan was stunned for a moment, and then quickly recalled that when he passed by a restaurant just now, the owner was using an iron pot and didn't know what he was cooking, and when he lifted the lid, Ning Xuan didn't see it clearly because of the rising white mist that came out, and he didn't take it to heart, so he just walked over like that, who knew that the boss was cooking rice at that time, "How long does it usually take to cook rice here?" ”

"How long?" Anse El felt that Ning Xuan's question was a little strange, "It's about the same time as a barbecue, haven't you ever cooked rice?" So what else do you buy? ”

The barbecue speed of the people here is quite fast, Ning Xuan didn't know what to think, a sudden expression of realization appeared on his face, and then turned to Anse Air and said, "I think we still need some kitchen cooking tools." With that, he didn't care about Ansel's reaction and walked straight into the woodsmithing shop.

This woodware shop bought some pots and pans and other tools, Ning Xuan walked around and asked an old man with a goatee while gesturing, "Hello, do you have such a bucket here?" ”

The old man looked at Ning Xuan's gesture and shook his head, "Not now, but if you want, I can make it as you say." ”

"If you can do that, of course it would be great." Ning Xuan thought for a moment and then spoke, "Then, please help me make a few things, I can draw all their patterns." ”

"Okay, no problem." The old man nodded, beckoned the young man in the store to take out the charcoal and parchment and handed them to Ning Xuan, "I can wait for you to finish drawing and let the guy in the store pick it up, the rule in our store is to pay half of the deposit in advance." ”

"No, it doesn't take a lot of time, I'll draw it for you now." Ning Xuan waved his hand to take the charcoal and said, after thinking about it, he turned his head and asked Anse Air, who was looking at the shop pù, "Ansai, do you need to hurry?" ”

Anse El shook his head, "It's okay, you can paint, I'm fine." ”

Since Anse Air said so, Ning Xuan also found a place to sit and began to draw what he needed, and Anse Air stood behind Ning Xuan and watched Ning Xuan concentrate on drawing smooth lines on the parchment, and then looked at those lines to form objects, his eyes couldn't help but flash slightly, but he didn't say anything, just watched quietly.

It didn't take long for Ning Xuan to draw the drawings, and the old man gave the price needed to make these things after asking some details - thirty copper coins, and a deposit of fifteen copper coins in advance, which was much lower than Ning Xuan expected, so he happily paid the bill and agreed on a time to pick up the goods before leaving the carpentry shop with Ansel.

"I really didn't expect that so many things would be ordered for only thirty copper coins, which is too cheap." After walking out of the store, Ning Xuan said to Ansel while avoiding passers-by, "You know, Aji eats meat for fifty copper coins a piece!" ”

"It's just handmade money." Anse El thought it was normal, "If it weren't for the fact that Old Hans's craftsmanship was indeed the best in Fla City, thirty copper coins would be considered expensive." Besides, do you think that Cytrom is something that everyone can raise? If it weren't for a person with a solid family background, he wouldn't have thought about raising a Cytroon at all, because just eating a Cytroon can overwhelm a person from an average family, not to mention a series of expenses for training in the later stage, so," Speaking of this, Anse El glanced at Ning Xuan meaningfully, "Sometimes I don't know if you're really stupid or pretend not to understand, in short, raising a Cytrosaur is not an easy thing to do......"

After saying this, Ansel was stunned, and Ning Xuan walked to the front on his own.

Ning Xuan looked at the back of Ansel who was walking around in front of him, pursed his lips and clenched his fists again, and quickly chased after him.

The last thing Ning Xuan and his boss needed to buy was meat, and Anse Air seemed to be lacking in interest in meat, urging Ning Xuan to buy some pork and a wild duck before leaving with him.

At first, Ning Xuan thought about how to cook these meat dishes later, and didn't pay attention to where Ansel took him, but when Ansel stopped, Ning Xuan raised his head and looked at the building in front of him, but he smiled at Ansel gratefully, "Fortunately, you still remember, otherwise Aji would have been hungry later." While speaking, Ning Xuan had already taken out the salary that Ansair had advanced to him, and went to buy meat for Aji to eat today, but before he could go far, he was dragged back by Ansel by the collar, Ning Xuan turned his head and didn't understand, "What's the matter, Ansai?" ”

Anse El snorted, "My buddy has never been cheated by someone else. Dropping such a sentence, Anse El bypassed Ning Xuan and came to the front of the Keith butcher's shop, and said to the boss with a smile on his face, "Old Keith, yesterday my buddy ordered today's meat from you, are you ready?" ”

Old Keith had some cramps in his legs and stomach when he saw Ansel appear, and when he heard what Ansel said, the corners of his mouth suddenly began to cramp, and he glanced at the fat man standing behind Ansel with a harmless face, and then looked at Ansel, who seemed to be smiling, Old Keith smiled very reluctantly, "Dang, of course Mr. Dupont, I'm waiting for you to prepare the freshest meat for your Setdragon cubs!" Saying that, Old Keith picked up the meat cadding knife and brushed it on the body of an unknown animal hanging not far behind him, and cut off several large pieces of meat, each piece was not light, and tied it with hemp rope before respectfully placing it in front of Anse El, and said with a smile, "Mr. Dupont, I saw that it was too late yesterday, and the Settron cubs would not digest it if they ate too much at night, so I prepared less, but during the day, it is when they are energetic, so they need to be fed to their full, you see, This is the meat for your Setdragon cubs, are you still satisfied? ”

Anse El glanced at the pile of meat with critical eyes, let out a breath from his nose, then nodded arrogantly, and finally turned to Ning Xuan and dropped a sentence, "Take it and go home with me." ”

Ning Xuan didn't understand how this meaty butcher had become a cat rat in front of Anse Els, but he just glanced at the old man curiously and then laboriously lifted the stack of meat to catch up with Anse Elsel, and the old Keith over there let out a long breath after watching the fat and thin figure disappear in front of his eyes, and muttered, "Why did I mess with him?!" ”
