There are no fresh vegetables at home, only the pork of this world in the refrigerator, and there is a lot of flour...... If you want to try your hand at cooking, you have to go out and buy groceries.

I heard Yoti say that the two-storey Dulo building they lived in had no name, and it was rumored that the old gentleman couldn't figure out what to name. Now faced with a large number of vegetables with Paxi names, Yu Youzi can't remember them a little, so he simply calls them according to their appearance, anyway, as long as the appearance is similar, it should be similar to the plants on the earth in terms of taste...... Since they are all in the universe, there will be differences in the edible vegetables domesticated by human beings, but there will always be consistency in the large varieties, probably ......

Holding a fist-sized green umbrella-shaped fruit, Yu Youzi rubbed its skin, which was so smooth that he could feel that there was no fruit underneath, and asked about the cooking method of this food.

The vendor, with his sleeves rolled up and trousers and his exposed arms and legs covered in dry mud, said in Pasi with a strange accent: "Cut, cut, core, fried, fried, spicy!"

As he spoke, he sorted out the pile of green umbrella vegetables on his sackcloth. Yu Youzi pinched it, and had a plan in his heart, this should be persimmon peppers, green peppers and the like, right? The appearance is too much like an umbrella, so let's call it umbrella peppers...... I have the impression that I have eaten a dish made of chili peppers, and the green skin is crisp, but since it has been processed, I don't know the prototype of the ingredients for that dish, so I think I should be able to cook it.

"Boss, how to sell. ”

"One bucket and three small papa. ”

Bucket is a kind of metering container, the wooden one is about the size of two or three rice bowls for eating, all the stalls in this vegetable market are using this measuring tool for settlement, and the water can be filled with about 500 to 600 milliliters, the so-called bucket is to fill the container, and fill it to the level with the mouth of the container.

The amount of one bucket felt a lot, and Yu Youzi chose two or three and threw them into the bucket handed out by the stall owner: "A small pa." ”

The stall owner picked up the bucket and checked it, and then picked up another one and went in: "Two small papas." ”

looked at it, it was almost two-thirds of the bucket, and Yu Youzi didn't want to take advantage of the stall owner, so he took out the money from the money bag to pay the bill, and then put the umbrella pepper into the vegetable basket - this is what Yoti gave him before going out, in this world without plastic bags, of course you have to bring a vegetable basket to buy vegetables.

After that, Yu Youzi bought radishes, pearl flowers, green winter melons, Lan cabbage, and mountain shoots, and the shallots and ginger in the world here are the same as those on the earth, and they all bought some respectively. It took a total of about 13 papa, a basket full of vegetables, almost enough for a family of five to eat three meals a day. Counting the staple food, a household costs more than 20 papa a day, and if there are four or five papa per person on average, the life pressure of the people at the bottom is not very great...... Of course, this does not include the cost of fuel, venue, etc.

The stall owners of this stall vegetable market all thought that Yu Youzi was the little master who came out to experience life and help buy vegetables, and they were very enthusiastic to answer some of his strange questions. Let Yu Youzi know a lot about the situation of agriculture in this world......

They are basically farmers from the vicinity of the old capital of Jinjinli, of course, since this is the eastern suburbs, they are all villagers from the eastern village. It takes about six blocks in the morning to enter the city, saying that it is six o'clock in the morning, and it is not bright at all in the world here, and it is still the time of night, because there is a watchtower on the avenue, and it is the inland area of the empire, the safety is still very guaranteed. At that time, just walk along the watchtower with the big magic lamp on.

You can reach the city gate at about dawn, that is, around nine grids, but if it is the cold season, it is still not bright at this time...... The cost of entering the city is five small papas per person, no matter how many things you are carrying. Most of the villagers here carry a sack of vegetables into the city, and when they arrive here, they remove the ties of the sack and spread it out to become a stall.

Vehicles are of different standards, there are trailers among the vendors, and the livestock generally do not enter the city because of the restriction of the area that can go, and after pulling to the door, the livestock will be driven back by the companions, and the people will drag the carts into the city for sale.

The villagers, of course, can't afford to use the magic horse. If you have a magic horse, you don't have to sell vegetables like this, you can go directly to the rental carriage business and make more money.

Yu Youzi thought to himself, this is no matter how many agricultural products are there, there must be different charging standards for other goods. At the same time, I sighed about how much wealth I have gained since I came to this world.

"So how do you go back after you're sold?"

The owner of the cart stall selling bamboo shoots replied that in the afternoon, his companions would bring the livestock back and wait for him to go back with him.

In other words, this companion spends about nine hours a day on the road, and it is only thirty-six hours a day that this side of the world is still very abundant...... Of course, there are also those who do not rush back, so they stay directly outside the city gate, and the villager stall owners also have the option of selling all the vegetables directly to the market retailers. It's just that because the price will be lowered by the merchants, they will usually sell it themselves for a while......

Walking past and back to this vegetable stall alley, silently counting, there are a total of 26 kinds of vegetables for sale here, which shows that there are 26 kinds of domesticated edible vegetables in this area. On the modern earth with developed logistics, there are at least 100 varieties in a vegetable supermarket. Maybe there will be vegetables from all over the world in the airport Taran city, but locally, there should be only 26 kinds of vegetables.

After that, I asked about spices, flour, vegetable oil, etc., and was told that I had to go to the market to buy them...... Since there is a lot of stock in the food warehouse at home, there is no need to buy it.

Walking out of the vegetable alley, he politely asked a passer-by wearing a watch, the time is fourteen squares now, calculate the time, Tahi should receive Alaifeng and Alaiyou, and it is almost time to come back.

Back in front of the front building, which was only one story high, he took out the keys that Sanfret had allotted to everyone, and was about to open the door, when the door was opened from the inside—

"Haha, surprise, be surprised!" a green-haired girl jumped out and shouted.

Such a noisy girl, I think it should be Alaiyou, who has just recovered from a serious injury, and looked carefully at her beautiful little face, sure enough, there is still a hint of paleness, and the red lips are not so bright.

Yu Youzi cooperated with a surprised expression, and at the same time threw the vegetable basket to the ground very lightly with his hands and feet, to express that he was frightened and "at a loss".

Alaiyou nodded with satisfaction, and said with a smile like a flower: "Giggles, look at you......! If you buy some vegetables and come back, I'll help you get them!" As he spoke, he picked up the vegetable basket that had fallen to the ground, screamed so loudly, and then ran to the house, shouting, Sister, I scared him stupid!

As soon as you enter the front building is a hall, because it is a three-story building, the hall is generally with stairs, so it seems very small, and this building is only one floor, there is no staircase structure, the hall is very open. I saw the corridor on the left, where Alaifeng, Tahi and Yoti were standing, Alaiyou ran to her sister with a vegetable basket, and the two girls chattered and discussed, of course, in the wind language, from the time they opened the door to meet, Alaiyou was talking to Yu Youzi, and Yu Youzi knew their language, which was something that had been known for a long time.

Tahijin and Yoti walked over to greet Yu Youzi.

Yu Youzi first spoke to Tahijin: "Are you okay on the road?"

"Well, the journey went smoothly, and it was the appearance of the two of them who attracted some onlookers...... Isn't there a Wind People here in the old capital of Gold?"

"Yes, yes, but not much...... You know, the Wind People have been in one place for a long time, and it is impossible for them to settle down, and I heard that many academies do not accept the Wind People as teachers, because they don't work for long, and some students just ran away when they became famous...... "Yoti said, the corners of her eyes drifted to Alai Feng and Alai You from time to time, and she was also full of curiosity about the petite Wind People girl with pointed ears, green hair and green eyes, and a petite Wind People, "Hey, it's a pity that I'm leaving tomorrow, I really want to stay and continue to work...... It's fun to make friends with the people!"

Yu Youzi: "Then try to see if you can become friends in one day." ”

Jyoti: "Yes!"

Tahidi: "There's no need to be in such a hurry, it's not like you can't come back in the future, you can take your time." ”

Yoti nodded and began to think seriously about it.

Yu Youzi turned to Tahijin: "How long have you been back?"

"For a while, it was Aleyo who said that she had to wait for you to come back and surprise you, and everyone waited for you in the living room with her, and even stood at the door and looked at the road from the window. Tahidi grumbled, "If it weren't for Yoti saying that you just went out to buy groceries, just a street away, we wouldn't have been waiting here a long time ago." ”

"Didn't her sister Alaifeng stop her from messing around?"

"Gee, Alaiyo's Parsi is a little bit better than her sister's, so I don't know how she translated between us and Alaifeng, but I feel like she has definitely changed the meaning of our words. Tahidi complained, "There's definitely something greasy in there!"

Yu Youzi can imagine how the noisy Alaiyou used his translator to get his hands on it. Thinking that she might be eavesdropping on the conversation here, Yu Youzi couldn't help but lower her voice: "Forget it, it's not a big deal...... You take them to your room, and I'll get ready for lunch with Yoti. ”

"Eat so early?"

"You've traveled so far early in the morning, you must be hungry by now. ”

"That's what you say...... On the way, Alaiyo watched the boiling goods drool!"

Talking and laughing, the four of them acted separately in the hall, Tahi Yuan took Alai Feng and Alai You to the west girls' building behind, and Yu Youzi took the vegetable basket and went to the kitchen with Yoti.

"How do you buy bamboo shoots this season?" Jotti said strangely, checking the basket on the cooking table, "It's all plains, there are no very high mountains, and the bamboo shoots at the beginning of the yang season are generally leftovers from the cold season, old and rotten......"

"Oh, is there such a saying......" Yu Youzi just thought that this bamboo shoot was very big, and it looked very tender, so he bought it, "Yoti, please see what I did wrong......

"Well, but first, I'll only know bread and stews, and I don't know much about other dishes. ”

"It's okay, just tell me some common sense, I can be considered a 'cooking expert' in other worlds!"

"No problem, I'm actually like trying the food of another world!"

"Hah! it's all cooked anyway, so don't expect it too much......"

After a long time, Yoti went to the second floor of the West Building to call the three girls who were talking and laughing in the room down for dinner, and the three of them continued to practice Pasi as soon as they had time to talk to the word notebook in the amusement park.

"Hey, it smells so good!" Alaiyo ran into the main restaurant with full spirits, but when he saw the food on the table, he was a little puzzled, "...... I've never seen anything before. ”

Yu Youzi, who was standing at the table, looked at the girls who came in one after another and rubbed his hands and said, "This is a dish from another world, try it." ”

After hearing the word "otherworld", not only Alaiyou, but even Alaifeng, who was following her, had bright eyes, looking at the five dishes and two large soup bowls on the table, as if looking at some rare treasure. Tahi also had a curious expression on her face, urging the two girls to hurry up and take their seats.

Yoti's face was a little strange and he muttered, "It looks and smells pretty good, but I don't know if it suits your appetite." ”

Alaifeng and Alaiyo, who sat down on the table and grabbed the spoon, couldn't hear anything, while Tahiyi, who was sitting down, looked at Yoti strangely: "What's the matter?

"Oh, it's okay, it's just that Yu Youzi always got the seasoning wrong at the beginning!"

Alai Feng, who was playing with the food in his mouth, stopped his movements and turned his head to look at Yu Youzi: "Huh?"

"Don't look at me like that, I still divide the salt, but the other spices are a little problematic, because the color is a little different from my original world. ”

"Well, it's delicious, green-green, white-white!" commented Alaiyo, a little awkwardly using his fork-tipped spoon.

Yu Youzi: "This is fried pearl flower with umbrella pepper - cut two vegetables into strips, then prepare shredded ginger and garlic, and first use hot water to go through the pearl flowers to remove the pollen...... This was taught to me by a villager who sold vegetables...... Just put the ingredients in a pot and stir-fry them!" he said in a mixture of wind and Pasi languages.

Yoti: "Hmph, don't say it so simply, although the strips you cut are very beautiful, but the seasoning is the most important thing...... When I first tried it, it was really salty!"

Alaifeng couldn't understand Yoti's quick and anxious complaints, but he could understand Alaiyou's positive evaluation, so he also stretched out his spoon and tasted a mouthful of fried pearl flowers with umbrella peppers, nodded and affirmed to Yu Youzi: "Well, it's very fresh." ”

Yu Youzi Dale: "Come on, come on, let's try other dishes!"
