Chapter Eighty-Nine: Card Ideas and Martin's Evaluation
Reporting the menu to Gourmet One, Anduin didn't study the notes of the Holy Light's right hand as usual, perhaps because of Martin's presence, or perhaps because of the fierce chess game by the fireplace, his eyes fell on the game between the old lord and the dwarf Green.
For a long time, Anduin has not been able to comprehend the charm of chess, of course not now, looking at the two old men attentively, such a picture suddenly appeared in front of his eyes, the black and white chessboard turned into a loess long mini sand table, the two of them each held Hearthstone cards, launched a confrontation, the old lord played an entourage, and a lifelike three-dimensional composition immediately appeared on the sand table, holding a weapon at the enemy.
Dwarf Green saw the move, threw out a spell card casually, and a huge fireball suddenly appeared on the sand table, bombarding the shouting entourage to the slag, the battle continued, near the end, the sand table was full of dwarf Green's powerful entourage, the momentum was great and had the potential to kill, and the old lord who fell into the wind saw that the situation was not good, so he could only break the can...... Fight to the death!
With a voice of "I am the embodiment of power" suddenly appeared, the side of the chessboard in front of the dwarf Green formation, suddenly the sky collapsed, the flames of destruction swept by, the original momentum of the entourage army, suddenly turned into ashes and disappeared, on the other hand, on the old lord's tower, there was a majestic black dragon standing tall, although the old lord's cards were exhausted, but the dragon's eyes were so frightening.
In times of crisis, Dwarf Green is calm, although he has few cards in his hand and his own HP has reached the red line, he also knows that the victory or defeat has not yet been revealed.
Sure enough, when the next card appeared, Dwarf Green suddenly smiled, and slapped it hard, realizing the legendary feat of "social snail brother, single defense big cousin", it is a slender posture of three attacks and two bloods, facing the black dragon of Double Twelve, the combat power of the two sides seems to be very different, but the outcome is already doomed.
The old lord saw that he was powerless to return to the sky, but he refused to surrender, and ordered the black dragon to collide with the highly poisonous Niu Ge, a dragon was poisoned, a cow turned into slag, and the two sides fought, so he gave up.
"It's quite touching to think about it!"
[The feeling is the feeling, the cost of making the projection sand table is a bit high, and it is not enough to have money, and you have to ask the legendary mage to make the light and shadow array, hmm...... The price of the host is calculated by himself, anyway, I can't figure it out. 】
"Annoying! I just want to be happy, why do you come out and mess with my heart? ”
[You murder me! Boom! 】
"Beep, if you were in front of me, I would have to hammer you to death! I don't need to project the sand table? Can't just make a few pieces of paper? Is Hearthstone's charm in the special effects? Can't you comprehend the magnificence and ups and downs of the battle? ”
[Hmm...... Simply making paper cards is not a lost method, but it is a bit troublesome to promote, and most importantly, the card pack is not easy to sell! Physical cards circulate on their own, which will inevitably affect our business! 】
"That's right, you must sum it up well, but there is one thing that needs to be confirmed first."
When it came to making money, Anduin and the system immediately became firm allies, raised his hand to beckon Eddard over, and asked softly, "Do you know the image rights?" ”
"What?"
"It's okay, let's keep standing guard!"
“……”
[It's easy to say that the right to be a portrait, the right to name is the key, and there are a lot of legendary cards in the classic library, which are not suitable for taking out right now, such as King Galaxus and Illidan Furywind, I haven't heard of these two in the history of this world. 】
"It's easy to say, just change the name for the time being, and ask Green and Van Cleef later if they can make a printed template, it's really not good, spend four hundred oceans to summon Taray or go to the Silver Fortress to buy a production line."
Anduin had an idea in his heart, and a home-cooked dish was immediately baked, and the fragrance was overflowing, so that the old lord and Green couldn't help but look over, and the dwarf engineer rubbed his stomach and laughed: "I'm hungry when I smell the smell of braised pork, I just had breakfast!" ”
The old gentleman found that Green's attention was all on the plate, quietly changed two chess pieces, and deliberately said, "Don't rub it off, it's time for you to go." ”
Only then did Green come back to his senses and look at the situation on the chessboard with strange eyes: "Eh! Seems a little wrong! ”
The old lord coughed, and said with a straight face: "What's wrong?" My reputation in the Gnome Kingdom is not small, how could I do something like stealing chess pieces? ”
The dwarf engineer shook his head heavily: "If I had only come to the Hearthstone Inn now, I would have thought so, after all, if I hadn't seen a real person, no one would have thought that the famous old lord would overwhelm people for a few bites of food!" ”
Anduin ignored the farce of the two old men, and sent the braised pork to Martin, and took out chopsticks and knives and forks, two utensils with different styles, as usual, but Martin was in a daze and did not move for a long time.
Jedrick? Old man?
Why does it sound so familiar?
Martin heard the conversation between the two, but he couldn't remember the true identity of the old man for a while, but his opinion in his heart was no longer to blame the old man, but a certain big man in the Silver Fortress, on the other hand, the dwarf old man did not seem to be an ordinary person, and the professional badge on his shoulder was much more delicate than that of a low-level engineer.
Martin felt a pang in his heart, with such two distinguished guests present, he really couldn't judge the true level of the Hearthstone Inn by quantity.
Especially the tangy aroma and peculiar shape of the braised pork, he racked his brains and couldn't find the corresponding prototype, as for the two chopsticks, he was directly ignored by him who was a little trance, and he started to taste and evaluate the knife and fork.
As soon as the connoisseur makes a move, he will know if there is one!
Anduin, who returned to the bar, saw Martin show different movements, he divided each layer of braised pork, first carefully observed the internal conditions, and then put them in his mouth in turn, his eyes narrowed slightly, carefully felt the feedback of his taste buds, and finally drank water and rinsed his mouth, and then tried the next part.
The extremely cumbersome process made the meal extremely slow, and Anduin dared to guarantee that if a bearded dwarf was at the same table with him, he would only be able to eat one piece at most.
However, Martin's peculiar move, only used on the first piece of braised pork, after clearly feeling the different tastes of each level, he was particularly eager to try a whole piece of braised pork, the result surprised him, obviously three completely different meat parts, after mixing, it collides with an amazing feeling, every time you chew, you can make your teeth feel the refreshing feeling of cutting meat, so that the taste buds experience the satisfaction of being soaked in the sauce, so that the mouth is filled with refreshing comfort.
As soon as he entered his stomach, Martin's expression changed significantly, his expression was happy, but his eyebrows were frowning, he didn't expect that this home-cooked dish called braised pork would bring him such a novel and unique feeling.
He looked at the aftertaste of the plate, and was immediately stunned to find that with his sense of taste, he couldn't distinguish all the ingredients, and the method of this braised pork was completely different from the existing dishes of the Holy Empire, not the pursuit of "refinement" and "simplicity", but the display of "full" and "full", which was also the most surprising place for Martin, because such a "satisfying" ingredient did not cause a taste conflict, which shows how far the chef's skill and the maturity of the recipe have reached.
Then, Martin moved his plate away and watched the performance of the braised pork up close, especially the mellow sweet sauce, which made him the most curious, and when the meat pieces were put into his mouth, he immediately gave birth to a different kind of enjoyment.
How do you mix this sauce?
It's certainly not just sugar, and in addition to sugar, the mellow taste is also very important, if not blended properly, it will either make people feel sweet or fail to express the unique taste.
It's scary, it's amazing!
Unconsciously, Martin's eating speed became more and more terrifying, which was extremely rare for this famous chef in the imperial capital, who had always been picky, especially when he finished eating, he felt that he was still unsatisfied, and his eyes immediately changed.
Could it be that all the dishes on that menu are original to Hearthstone?
It can't be so scary, right?
At this moment, Martin's mood was conflicted, he hoped that Anduin would bring out the popular dishes of the Holy Empire, and on the other hand, he wanted to eat a new dish similar to braised pork, and his eyes couldn't help but focus on Anduin who was coming again, and some kind of dish that he had never seen on the plate.
Smack!
As soon as his hands were loosened, the knife and fork fell on the table, and the plate collided with the plate to make a cool sound, sensing that everyone was looking, Martin quickly gathered his mind and sat upright, ready to leave all distractions behind, and satisfy his mouth first.
Wait, let me think about the name of this dish?
"Garlic pork ribs, please use slowly."
