"General, is the consumption here expensive?"

As soon as the black sheep Jiuzhen left, Li Qi whispered to Niu Zhuzhan and asked.

He is more sensitive to money, because what he lacks most now is money, and he doesn't even dare to order food in the next restaurant.

Niu Zhizhan nodded and said, "This is the most expensive guild hall in our Niu Hump, because the main people here are traders from various races. ”

Traders certainly have money, and the places where they are are are certainly the best.

Li Qi asked again, "Then the food here must be very delicious." ”

Niu refused to fight and said: "Of course, the cooks here can cook food of all races, oh... It may not have the food you humans are used to, but it is certainly much better than your human food. ”

"Of course, that's of course."

Li Qi smiled and nodded, thinking, you don't even have wine, and you dare to say this, you want to be ashamed. Suddenly glanced at the table diagonally opposite, and saw a big fat beast sitting on the table, looking like a pig and a mouse, with a pair of squinting eyes, a turban on his head, wrapped in thick clothes, and the most worn one of them, he couldn't help asking: "General, who is it?" Why do you wear so much? It seems to be cold. ”

Niu Zhuzhan looked back and said, "It's a trader of the Haoyu clan, and the reason why it wears so much is because it shears its hair." ”

Li Qi was puzzled and said, "Why does it want to cut the hair?" ”

Niu refused to fight and said with a smile: "Because they are sold for hair, their hair is very valuable, the hair on the upper body can be used as a pen, and the hair on the lower body can be used as arrows." ”

Dual-purpose hair? Can you still make a pen? Make a bow and arrow? Li Qi was very surprised, but asked, "Is there still a shortage of arrows in the royal family?" ”

Since it says yes, then it must be, as for why it can, this is not technology, there is nothing to explain, it is pointless to ask this, and arrows are weapons, human beings also need them, Li Qi is not here to explore nature, he is here to see.

Niu refused to fight and said with a smile: "How can our royal family lack arrows, we don't use it to fight, but the arrows made of their hair, shoot it will make a very beautiful sound, and it is also very beautiful, and the farther you shoot, the more wonderful the sound, when we usually compete, we generally use their hair arrows, not only our royal family, many races like their hair." ”

So magical! Li Qi thought to himself, the various races here have their own unique racial talents, and this talent can be directly turned into benefits, and we humans .......

The more he thought about it, the cooler it became, and he really couldn't think of what humans could exchange for them.

At this moment, the dish has already come up.

It was a large square wooden plate with a large pork leg, two large bowls of seasoning, and a glass of grass fruit juice, as well as some cutlery.

"You two, please use it slowly."

"Thank you!"

Niu refused to fight and rubbed his big hands and said, "It's been a long time since I ate the pork thighs here!" Eat, eat. ”

As he spoke, he picked up a black iron table knife on his plate, and with a few strokes, he cut the big pork leg into slices.

When Li Qi saw it, there was a sadness in his heart, the black iron that had made him ecstatic was only used to make dinner knives here, it was really a bully!

Niu refused to fight and picked up chopsticks again, picked up a large piece of meat, dipped a little crystal clear sauce, stuffed it into his mouth, and said vaguely: "It's delicious!" Delicious! You eat! Oh, this bowl is honey sauce, sweet and delicious, and that bowl is red jam, which is salty, depending on what flavor you like. ”

This cow is originally vegetarian, so eating meat is also a sign of their evolution, although some royal families still do not eat meat, but they can eat it, they just don't like to eat it.

"Oh."

Li Qi cut a small piece, dipped a little honey sauce, ate a small bite, and said in his heart, this pork is roasted well, charred on the outside and tender on the inside, and the honey sauce is really good, it is the best honey sauce I have ever tasted, but the taste is too simple.

A little red jam was dipped in again, which was indeed heavier, salty, and a little spicy.

But it's still very ordinary, mainly because the taste is relatively simple, which is different from human seasonings, human seasonings are combined, so to speak, if this honey sauce is a little more ordinary, it can basically be included in the general range.

This is the best taste of cow humps? Or do they just like the original? Richie was confused!

And the cow refused to fight and didn't care about him, and wiped out the big pork leg like a whirlwind, and grabbed a piece of cloth on the plate and wiped his mouth. It can be seen that Li Qi's big pork leg is almost still intact, so he asked, "Why don't you eat it?" ”

Li Qi sighed and said, "I eat slowly." ”

"Oh."

Niu refused to fight and nodded in understanding, but looking at Li Qi's chewing slowly, when did he have to eat, so he coughed lightly twice and said, "You eat first, I still have something to deal with." ”

Depend on! That's not leaving me here alone. Richie looked a little apprehensive.

Niu Weizhan seemed to see what he was thinking, and said with a grin: "Don't worry, they saw that you came with me, no one dared to hurt you, and no one dared to make trouble here, just don't walk around." ”

At this point, what else could Li Qi say, so he had to get up and say, "I know, general, please go slowly." ”

As soon as the bull refused to leave, Li Qi immediately felt uncomfortable, especially when the other traders looked this way, which was a sign of insecurity.

After a while, the black sheep Jiuzhen suddenly walked over and asked with a smile, "Where is General Niu leaving?" ”

"It's going to take care of something." Li Qi said and quickly got up and said, "Please sit, please sit." ”

Black Sheep Jiuzhen sat down and asked with interest, "I've seen a lot of humans, but I've never seen a human as smart as you." ”

Although it didn't talk to Li Qi about anything, how can humans today know how to be so polite as Li Qi, and Li Qi's speech and demeanor are no different from them, which is difficult for them to understand.

"It's because I happened to have met the Spirit," Richie explains, and it was the Spirit who taught me this. ”

"Oh... I see. ”

Black Sheep Jiuzhen nodded, without any doubts, because the spirit race is the first in terms of culture, language and etiquette, and the dress of Black Sheep Jiuzhen is actually imitating the spirit, the royal family is not the first in everything, and the perfect race has its own special civilization and culture, and they are influencing each other. It saw that the big pork leg on Richie's plate had not been moved much, and only cut off a small slice, so it asked, "Don't you like to eat it?" ”

There was a hint of surprise in his tone.

Li Qi sighed and said busily: "No, no, no, it's delicious, it's delicious, it's just that I eat it slowly." ”

Heiyang Jiuzhen smiled and said: "I have opened a hall here for a long time, don't dare to say it, but you can still see whether the guests like the food or not, you can tell the truth." ”

I'm afraid it will hurt your self-esteem! Li Qi smiled awkwardly and said, "Don't hide it from the president, I don't have any special skills, but I'm only interested in eating." ”

"Really?"

Black Sheep Jiuzhen was surprised.

Li Qi nodded and said, "Maybe it's because the tastes of the royal family are different from those of us humans, I think this is very ordinary." ”

Heiyang Jiuzhen exclaimed: "Have you ever eaten something more delicious?" ”

Li Qi smiled innocently.

Heiyang Jiuzhen said: "If you have anything to say, just say it." ”

Li Qi said shyly: "Actually... Actually, what I make myself is even more delicious than this, of course, this is my own feeling, and maybe I will find it untasty for a long time. ”

Heiyang Jiuzhen was shocked and said, "Do you know how to cook?" ”

In its understanding, this human is estimated to still be eating raw, at most it is roasted with fire, and the ingredients on the human side are not far inferior to the food of the kingdom, how can it be better than the cooks of the kingdom.

Li Qi nodded, although his cooking skills have reached the point where he can make a delicious dish in his dreams, but he doesn't dare to be too arrogant, in case they are just such a taste and don't like to eat what he makes, it is also very possible, after all, it is not a race.

Heiyang Jiuzhen was still a little unconvinced, and said, "Then can you let me see your cooking." ”

Li Qi said: "This... This... In case General Niu comes....... ”

"I'll let Changyou guard over here."

Black Sheep Jiuzhen got up and said, "Please." ”

In fact, Li Qi also wanted to see if they liked the taste or if their cooking skills were not high, so he was not pretentious, and followed Heiyang Jiuzhen to the cooking room.

"President Jiuzhen, why did you take him to the cooking room, he was brought by the general who resisted the war!"

Lifelike suddenly exclaimed.

Everyone burst out laughing.

Richie was shocked, yes! Is Lao Tzu still food, isn't this self-defeating?

Black Sheep Jiuzhen also seemed to notice it, so she smiled and said, "Don't pay attention to them, they are just joking." ”

Li Qi nodded slightly, and felt that it was unlikely, human beings are not rare, and they must eat him if they can't do it, and he is not Tang Seng.

The cooking room of the trade fair hall is in the easternmost part of the hall, and it also has to pass through a curved passage, the passages of this kingdom are all curved, there are no right angles, there must be a curvature, and the bend of the cave cannot be direct.

When he came to the cooking room, Li Qi couldn't help but look surprised, not to mention that this cooking room is very large, and the furnishings are almost the same as those of later generations, with a long black iron table in the middle, on which all kinds of food are placed, and on both sides are stoves, and the key is that there is a huge exhaust fan above each stove.

Could it be that they have already invented electricity? Richie's heart was on the verge of collapse, and if they were all using electricity, humans would have to at least come up with nuclear power to be able to compete with it, but it was almost impossible. Seeing a sheep beast standing in front of each stove, the beast closest to him was turning the grill quickly with one hand, pulling a handle back and forth with the other, and the flames were rushing upward, so it could be seen that there should be a blower device below, and I thought, if there is electricity, do you still need this kind of manual operation? He whispered, "Are these cooks royal?" ”

Black Sheep Jiuzhen nodded and smiled: "Of course, in this land, the most powerful cooks are all from our royal family." ”

"Really?" Li Qi's face was shocked, and he thought to himself, other jobs are all done by second-class races, but this chef is a royal family, it seems that the status of this chef is really not low!

"President, who ordered human flesh, why don't I know."

A chubby sheep beast looked at Li Qi, his eyes shining.

Depend on! Li Qi hurriedly took a step back, this Nima is too terrifying.

Black Sheep Jiuzhen said: "Don't talk nonsense, he is a guest invited by the general who refused to fight." ”

"Huh?"

The fat sheep beast was immediately blinded.

Another tall and thin sheep beast asked, "Then why did the president invite him here?" ”

Black Sheep Jiuzhen said: "Because he can cook, I want to see it." ”

"Humans who can cook?"

The cooks were stunned.

"You guys do your own thing, there are still a lot of guests waiting outside!" Heiyang Jiuzhen said, and said to Li Qi: "Please here." ”

It led Li Qi to a stove on the very edge, only to see that inside the stove was the black dead leaves that Li Qi knew. Only then did Li Qi know that the secrets he thought were actually used by these races for a long time.

Li Qi looked at the stove, and suddenly pointed to the exhaust fan and said, "What is this?" ”

Heiyang Jiuzhen said: "This is an air exhaust fan. ”

Li Qi pretended not to know: "Exhaust fan? So why are they all rotating, and this fan is not spinning again? ”

"It's easy!"

Heiyang Jiuzhen stretched out his hand and pulled the red line on the lower side, faintly heard the sound of the bell below, and then heard the sound of hula, and the exhaust fan above immediately turned.

Sounds a bit like a clockwork mechanism! There should be a beast pulling down there. Li Qi couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief.

Black Sheep Jiuzhen said: "I don't know what food you want to cook?" ”

Li Qi said: "I want to see what ingredients you have here first." ”

"Our ingredients are here."

Black Sheep Jiuzhen immediately invited Li Qi to the long table and introduced him one by one.

In fact, to sum up, their cooking skills lie in spreading and dipping, almost all of them are sauces to enhance flavor, what jams, honey sauces, and so on. Of course, they will also be steamed, not only baked, but only steamed dishes, will use some very simple ingredients, at most two or three, but that is only used to eliminate the fishy smell, the taste of the dish still depends on the sauce, and another way is to grind some ingredients into powder and then spread on the food.

Li Qi didn't look at the sauces, he specially selected some ingredients to see, they have a lot of ingredients here, but not for combinations, but because they have a lot of dishes, one ingredient is used for one dish. In addition, the ingredients they use are different from those in Blackstone Valley, and Li Qi has to taste them first.

After tasting this, he immediately felt that the ingredients in Blackstone Valley were really weak, and the taste of the ingredients here was more pure, and he immediately understood why they liked to use sauce in cooking, for no other reason, that is, because the taste of a single ingredient was pure, at least it was not unpalatable, so there was no need to study it, which meant that their dishes were all the taste of the staple food itself plus the taste of the sauce. Although their knife skills are very good, and the barbecue skills are also very good, no worse than Richie, but the cooking technique is very monotonous, and this kind of seasoning method cannot have too complicated cooking skills, and most of the ingredients in later generations have to be taken out separately to make sauce, which is definitely not delicious, and must be combined.

"How?"

After patiently waiting for Li Qi to taste them one by one, Black Sheep Jiuzhen asked.

Li Qi said: "I'll try it." Oh, can you give me a piece of half-fat and half-fat pork. ”
