Chapter 362: White Rice
For today's dinner, Ji Ran plans to use rice. A few hundred kilograms of rice, even if Alice could eat it well, would have eaten many meals - not every meal.
Cooking a large pot of fragrant white rice, Ji Ran made several dishes that he thought were the most fragrant dishes with white rice. Stew a chicken, then make a braised carp, make a pot of meat, and add a few vegetables......
In the process of cooking, Ji Ran's saliva couldn't stop flowing. He hadn't eaten white rice since he crossed into this world. Although the pasta is also good, I eat too much and always want to change the taste.
Soon, a table of dishes was brought out by Ji Ran again. There are chickens and fish, meat and vegetables, and they are very rich. Although they are all home-cooked dishes, these dishes are all full of color and aroma, and people can feel the sweet smell from afar.
Dinner time is the most crowded time, and today Ji Ran specially called Lydia back. An Rick also ran over to eat after he was done...... As long as there is nothing particularly important, Anlek will not miss the dinner in the small building.
Then, a table of dishes, plus a bowl of rice in front of everyone, surprised everyone.
"Is today a special day? So many dishes were made. And this...... What is this? "None of the others seem to recognize what white rice looks like.
“…… I think it's made from rice, right? Rice from our elves. But no one in the elves is so hot to eat directly...... They would make rice into various pastries and other foods. "After all, Irene's elf, Irene's still recognizable rice.
"This is white rice, a way to eat it in my hometown. I haven't been able to find rice here. I thought there wasn't one here. I didn't expect it to be a specialty of the elves. Erin, you didn't sue me sooner. I've been hungry for so many days. Ji Ran smiled and picked up the vegetables with chopsticks.
Erin glanced at him faintly: "You didn't ask again." ”
Ji Ran was choked and had nothing to say. He really didn't ask...... But who knew that rice was basically eaten only by elves?
Moreover, the elves only make pastries from rice...... The only one who used it to make white rice was Ji Ran.
When the white rice is ready, there will be a strong aroma of rice, which will arouse people's appetite. And the taste of rice and noodles is completely different, and with the dishes made by Ji Ran, it is really delicious. Even if Rice and the others had never eaten white rice before. This time, I also had a lot of fun, a large pot of rice was swept away, and the dishes on the table were clean.
"If you eat like this again, sooner or later you will be fed a fat man by Ji Ran!" Baker leaned back in his chair, gasped, and took a sip of wine.
"There's no way, how can you endure such a delicious thing and not eat it. It's a big deal to exercise more...... Alas, why can't winter pass, I can't wait to go to the wilderness to find those monsters to exercise. "Ben is about the same as Baker. Slumped in the chair and didn't want to move.
"Since you've all said so, I'll cook something less for you next time." Ji Ran heard their complaints. Teased a little.
"Don't, with such delicious food, I'd rather be fat...... It's good to be fat, at least for a few more days when you're hungry! Baker immediately shouted, followed by a burst of laughter.
The first time the white rice was made, it was widely praised, and Ji Ran decided to make it every once in a while. It's a pity that it's only a few hundred kilograms, and so many people can't eat for too long. I'll get some more when I get a chance in the future...... But not many merchants can get their hands on it, and they won't stay in Perth City forever...... It would be nice to have the opportunity to go to the Elven Forest and buy some for yourself.
After eating, everyone should leave, and everyone should rest. Ji Ran, on the other hand, followed Erin to her room.
"I did feel it, the scar became very itchy. To the touch, it seems to have softened. Erin reported to Ji Ran the effect of eating the honey-melted pearl soup, which was not much different from what Ji Ran imagined.
"Take off your mask and take a look, okay?" Ji Ran knew that only by seeing the changes in the scar could he determine the true effect of this honey-dissolved pearl soup.
Erin didn't speak, but raised her hand and took the mask off her face.
The three scars looked the same size as before, but Ji Ran found that the scars seemed to have become redder. It doesn't look like it has the same hard feeling as before.
"I think...... You can massage the scar a little bit. Proper rubbing should help the scar disappear. Ji Ran's speculation is not unreasonable...... In terms of the effect of honey-dissolved pearl soup, removing scars is equivalent to modifying the appearance. Modify the appearance, commonly known as pinching the face in the game......
If you don't pinch it, who knows what you want your face to look like? If you want to remove this scar, you will probably have to gently rub it to soften the flesh on the scar.
Erin listened to Ji Ran's words, didn't speak, raised her hand, and rubbed it on her scar. Ji Ran could clearly see that the scar gradually became soft and flattened under Erin's rubbing. At least after a while, it becomes less vicious.
"It works! However, it seems that it will not be solved in the short term. Wait, I'll get you a few more honey-melted pearl soups. ”
This recipe really works! It's just that now it seems that the honey-soluble pearl soup made of the fourth-grade material does not seem to work particularly well. But high-grade honey and pearls are hard to come by on the market...... I can only use the four-level improvisation first. Although the effect is getting weaker and weaker, it is better than nothing, right?
In the following days, Ji Ran made a night of honey-melted pearl soup for Erin every day. And as she continued to take this food, the scar on Erin's face became softer and flatter. Although it is still obvious, it has lightened a lot from when I first watched it.
But it's a pity that the fourth-level honey-soluble pearl soup is almost ineffective. Even if Ji Ran used his best efforts to make the honey-soluble pearl soup of the commodity, it was the same. If you can't get higher quality honey and pearls, that's the end of the effect.
This kind of effect naturally cannot satisfy Ji Ran. So during this time, he held his back and kept going around the market in Perth City. Many times, they don't even return to Xiaolou until it gets dark, just to find higher-grade honey and pearls.
Luckily, he finally found some fifth-level pearls and spent a lot of money to buy them. But fifth-level honey is not so easy to get...... The fifth-level Warcraft bees have exceeded the range that humans can raise.
In fact, humans also raise magical beasts to obtain magic crystals and materials in batches. However, it is too difficult to raise high-level magical beasts, and even some of the gains outweigh the losses, so the silver beginner level is basically the limit of most breeding.
It's the same with bees, and it's hard to raise fifth-level bee beasts. And it's still a social thing...... Raising a group of fifth-level demonic beasts, what is the concept?
One accidentally let the monster run out when he was sleeping at night, and he died in a daze!
Therefore, even if someone raises level 5 bees, it is definitely not for the purpose of taking out the honey and selling it...... Most of them have their own uses. Therefore, it is natural that grade 5 honey cannot be bought on the market.
If you only use fifth-grade pearls to cook honey-melted pearl soup, the effect will naturally be much worse. Therefore, during this time, Ji Ran searched the market to see if any adventurer was lucky enough to get fifth-level honey in the wild and sell it.
Then, his action fell into the eyes of George and others.
"That guy is getting home late now...... Maybe we can find a chance! George said excitedly to the two enforcers. And the two enforcers did not speak...... When they become law enforcers, they lose the right to express their opinions.
If it had been before, they could have refused the operation - because it was not against the rebels within the family. Nor is it facing an intruder who has invaded the family. But now, the ranks of the enforcers are also gradually turning sour......
They have now become an on-call deterrent force...... Those who can use them include not only the head of the family, but also the major elders. The only thing that hasn't changed is that they don't have the right to express their own opinions, and they need to listen to other people's commands wholeheartedly.
Even the grandsons of elders like George have the power to command them.
However, in their own eyes, this may not be a bad thing. At least they have access to a lot more than they used to...... In order to gain their cooperation, the elders must give them more benefits...... It can be said that everyone takes what they need.
The others who came out with Elder Aaron were now all around to monitor Ji Ran's movements...... They don't follow Ji Ran all the time, and after a period of time, they will change people to follow them, which is one of the reasons why Ji Ran didn't find them. And George and the two law enforcers are strategizing on this necessary way to the market.
"I've chosen a location where it's basically empty after dark. Next time, if that Ji Ran dares to walk through there, then, let's act! George saw Ji Ran return to the small building again, and pulled down the curtains with a resolute expression.
This time, Ji Ran still hadn't found the fifth-level honey. But now he doesn't have anything else to do except practice for a while, and then practice his technique...... The formation of promoting the golden rank to the Leth system is not in a hurry.
So, making time to go to the market to find grade 5 honey also gave him something to do - of course, it was also his biggest goal to get rid of those scars for Erin in a hurry.
In any case, he had to admit that he had an inexplicable affection for Erin. Although he wasn't sure if it was love or not...... But doing this for her is naturally nothing.
So, the next day, he went to the market again.
On this day, he still hadn't found fifth-level honey, only some other relatively rare materials that he could use. After running the market for such a long time, Ji Ran can be regarded as a small gain - even if there are not many opportunities to pick up leaks, but the more times he runs, he will naturally be able to pick up more or less two.
It was until it was dark and there was basically no one in the market that Ji Ran left. (To be continued......)
