Chapter XVII

Louis didn't say that those tiny grains were spices. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

Spices, I am afraid that no one does not know that the chili, garlic, ginger, tangerine peel, and spices used by modern people in their daily lives are all spices.

This seasoning made from plant seeds, fruits, rhizomes, and bark was also used in various fields such as religion, medicine, cosmetics, and fragrance in the early days.

Although this world was different from the world he knew, except for the ineffable supernatural things, it generally followed a trajectory similar to that of the earth. It's just that there are slight differences in different regional conditions, customs, cultures, and political factors, but the growth of organisms is roughly the same.

There are also spices here.

In Sunset City, except for the nobility, the sanctuary and the monastery, which have a small amount of spices preserved due to special class factors and needs, the only place where the most spices can be found is the brothel.

Because of the relatively primitive food culture, the unique meat storage conditions in the cold regions, and the relatively closed trade exchanges, people do not have a real understanding of spices, and most of the spices are still used for makeup, aromatherapy, etc., and unlike monasteries, as long as you are willing to buy them at a high price, brothels are happy to trade with you.

This was quietly helped by Barthes, and Louis eventually obtained sesame oil, olive oil, a small amount of palm oil, which was used as a body medium by the prostitutes, and even refined pepper oil, which could be used to wash hair, and spices such as cinnamon, rosemary, and cloves, which appeared first in the early days.

The coins were paid for by Cathy, and although they were ridiculously high, she felt that they were worth it now.

Compared with the instant noodle seasoning packet, the refined sesame oil is fine and healthy, and with Louie's blending, the taste will only be good, not bad.

Louis believed that many people here have never tasted this taste in their lifetime.

Hove picked up the dough, but he couldn't help but look closely, as if to see how it was made.

Why is it so even, why is it able to maintain such a beautiful curve, why is it just a whole piece, and it melts when it is soaked in hot water?

Is it like aspic?

Put the prepared instant noodles in a square container with water and freeze them in ice?

But why is it so neat? Is it put together one by one?

That's too much trouble, isn't it?

People couldn't bear it, seeing that the old man picked up the instant noodles and then didn't eat them, looking like he was going to break it, you should eat it quickly!

"Hoo-yo, hoo-yo!" Hough couldn't help but take a breath and froze for a moment.

Delicious!!!

It's so delicious!

So delicious that he didn't even know why it was so delicious!

It's a flavor that's so rich that it's hard to distinguish, but it's so harmonious that it can blend almost all the flavors together, and release it like a burst in an instant!

He doesn't know how to describe it!

The taste of the food was clearly amplified, and an indescribable power flickered and swam, and the whole tongue seemed to tremble with the taste, and the teeth were full of enthusiasm!

Whew-

Whew-

Whew-

People were amazed to see the old man sucking the tender noodles like sipping from a waterfall, taking a big mouthful and chewing a mouthful, and then sucking and chewing again......

The bowl of rich ramen was quickly wiped out, and the old man was snorting with the soup again—he couldn't stand it anymore!

People are boiling with animal blood!

......

When the old man of the inn came over again, he felt that the atmosphere was wrong, as if he hadn't seen him all night, and people were suddenly in a high mood?

He found Cathy and wanted to continue to discuss the transaction, but the other party refused, and he even suspected that he had heard it wrong!

"There's no need to trade," Cathy's voice was still tinged with a hint of anticipation, and she smiled, "Because, we're leaving." ”

......

There are a lot of things in the troupe, everyone's daily necessities, food, property, and paperwork needed by the entire troupe, all of which cannot be lost.

There was still a lot of ice left in Ketra, and he didn't plan to keep it, but Louis insisted on it, saying that he was doing something to make an ice test.

They didn't understand it, but when they heard that this was going to be used to preserve the meat jelly, the people were speechless.

"I really can't fit it!" the mercenary who pulled the cart complained, "What are these big guys keeping for, just throw them away!"

He was talking about the troupe's dressing tables, about four, all custom-made and expensive, but the distance was long and cumbersome.

Gail listened and scolded the mercenary, but in the end, because there was really no way to carry it, except for disassembling the mirror, the rest was sold to the old man.

The old man reluctantly accepted it, in his opinion, this thing can only be dismantled and used as firewood, but it is not in vain.

And Gale was angry for several days, and Hoff was even more angry, he bought such a big bear, except for the animal skin and bones that were left behind, and the bear bile and bear paws were sold, nothing else could be taken away!

"Bear meat is hard and unpalatable, and it doesn't work. ”

Someone said so.

The old man was so angry that his teeth rattled along the way.

Everyone was in a different mood, but they still drove a double-decker truck and a donkey-pulled cart, and finally left the leather street where they had lived for ten days.

Although when they first arrived at this place, they were full of melancholy and confusion, but now, they still have a little nostalgia for this place.

Cathy looked at the teenager in front of her.

She knew that only this person was the real treasure.

The troupe is temporarily divided into two groups, one led by Cathy, Kate, and Gail, who are responsible for transporting luggage from Giant Bear Gate.

It was a special supply passage, and it cost them a lot of gold to allow some people to pass through it in the afternoon.

Others, such as Barth, Leo, Louie, and Sanny, had to take a detour from Poor Man's Street and meet them at the Tampede.

Louis had never seen such a scene.

The streets were lined with stenking dead people, guards carried away corpses in disgust and spit, sewage and feces were dumped haphazardly, condensed into roads, and the sour smell was everywhere.

The cries of the babies continued, and under the shacks, the boys were all huddled in a shabby fur coat, and the nuns brought food from the public kitchen, and they were immediately snatched up.

All of them were emaciated as dry wood, and their breath was weak, as if they were going to die at any moment, and this was still Sunset City in shelter.

The girl Sanny hurried by, with disgust in the corners of her eyes and eyebrows, while Louie walked quietly behind, shocked by the scene in front of her.

For the first time, he felt the poverty and humility in his memory, and it was also the first time that he clearly realized that this was no longer the society under the rule of law that he was familiar with.

Human life here is worthless, and the lives of the poor are even less valuable.

They have no capital to survive, nor do they have the ability to survive, and from the moment they are born, they decide a life of sorrow.

He saw that under the shack, the mother was still holding a weak baby in her shriveled arms, and the baby was lying in her mother's arms, trembling gently, but he did not know that her mother was dead, and her ignorant eyes were still looking at her mother.

Louis paused slowly.

Not only this one baby, but there are countless babies and children in this world who suffer the same fate, for some reason, at this moment, looking at the baby's clear but weak brown eyes, Louis suddenly felt that the whole world was magnifying!

It was as if a cruel map was rapidly expanding and shouting, but his brain was instantly as clear as excitement!

He knew what he had to do.

How much ability there is, how much value will be created.

There is no one in this world who understands the origin, habits, and cultivation of all foods like him!

There is no one like him, who has the knowledge and technology that transcends the times!

There is no one like him, who has stood in the supreme hall of food and can make the best food across China and the West!

No!

The birth of hybrid rice could save hundreds of millions of people from famine, so what about him?

He has read so many books, seen so many science and technology, and has been exposed to so many modern agricultural knowledge...... So can he completely change the world with his strength!

Let people get rid of hunger, let people get warmth, let people enjoy stability!

Let the world know that maybe the killing of war makes people desperate and sad, but in the world, the power of food can sweep away all the pain!
