Chapter 13: The First Step on the Path of Legends
After a day and a night of travel, Loveka finally arrived at the final destination: Best City, the largest city in the Kingdom of Falai and known as the "Capital of Freedom".
I got off the train with Donna, walked through the long platform, and walked out of the station of the Loveka Express, and suddenly I felt like a big city like the magic capital and the capital in my previous life.
Loud voices of people are in your ears, and the sight of the majestic buildings in the distance is visually striking, the exterior of the buildings reflects the light of magic, and the wide streets are full of people and strange vehicles.
Some ride broomsticks at low altitudes, while others ride strange-looking monsters. Of course, it's more about horse-drawn carriages. As far as the eye can see, it is incomparably prosperous, full of thriving vitality and vitality.
"Hey, Rogo, do you see? This is the city of Best! Donna whispered in Rogo's ear, "Welcome." ”
"Thank you, Miss Donna." Rogo smiled at Donna.
From now on, this is the city where he lives.
Donna stretched out her hand and hailed a carriage, pulled Rogo into the carriage, and gave an address, and the coachman immediately drove the horses away from the station of the Loveka Express.
……
After walking for about half an hour, the carriage entered a street and stopped in front of a small two-story villa.
Under Donna's "obscenity", Rogo reluctantly paid the fare and followed Donna into the house.
"The second floor is my bedroom. There is a guest room on the first floor that can be lent to you for a temporary stay. Donna took a big sip of water, saw Rogo's appearance, and said, "Don't feel wronged. ”
"You think the money from the Fortune Federation is so easy to get?"
"Their so-called 10 million Bella cultivation funds refer to the total amount you can get under extreme conditions, and that will have to wait for you to break through the ninth level."
"In comparison, the benefits of the Guild Alliance are the most practical."
Rogo pouted: "Your requirements are not low. ”
Donna just smiled and said, "I'll go to the Alliance headquarters, hand over the task in hand, and then tell them about your affairs." ”
"You should prepare for the test."
With that, Donna turned around and was about to walk out, when Rogo suddenly called out to Donna: "Wait...... That, I want to go out and walk, do you have a map? ”
Donna nodded, ran to the study and rummaged through it, found a map and handed it to Rogo: "Don't go too far, carriages are still very expensive in the city." ”
Rogo: I know!
Donna shrugged her shoulders indifferently, gave Rogo a flying kiss, and left the room.
After Donna left, Rogo spread out the map.
His goal was clear, he was looking for a place to buy ingredients.
……
In this world, ingredients are divided into monster ingredients and ordinary ingredients.
Monster ingredients contain abundant energy and can only be cooked by the gods, while ordinary ingredients are food used by civilians to fill their stomachs.
Rogo learned from the Master of Sterk that not all of the monster ingredients were the kind of monsters and plants that were captured in the wild.
There are also artificial breeding and artificial cultivation.
Because in reality, there is such a situation, that is, the structure of the Warcraft itself that has been hunted so hard is too complicated, and it is particularly troublesome to make and eat.
And for the gods, too many types of Warcraft are tantamount to magnifying the difficulty of cooking.
Therefore, humans took advantage of the nature of demonic beasts devouring each other and thought of new methods.
Humans domesticated some Warcraft with high food value, and then used the carcasses of Warcraft that were not easy to handle as feed, and artificially bred different levels of edible Warcraft.
For example, pigs, cows, sheep, chickens, ducks, geese, etc.
In the same way, humans also use the corpses of demonic beasts as fertilizer to cultivate different levels of edible demonic plants.
For example, magic wheat, magic rice, magic fruit trees, and so on.
It is precisely because of this measure that the cultivation system has been relatively stable, and the strength of human beings has also increased rapidly.
And the dishes that Rogo is going to make this time are not rare in ingredients, so he plans to buy some directly and come back to try them.
Soon, Rogo found a place to buy ingredients on the map, rolled up the map and put it in his pocket, and ran straight out the door.
……
Half an hour later, Rogo returned with the ingredients he had just bought.
500 grams of magic wheat flour, ten eggs, and four tomatoes.
They are all first-class monsters.
Then, there was a small bottle of olive oil, a small packet of salt, a small stove, a saucepan, a small soup pot and two wooden bowls.
Rogo carefully put these ingredients away, and when he looked at the ingredients, he knew that he chose the world's first Chinese dish - tomato and egg noodles.
Let's do the math first:
An egg costs 8 pesos, 500 grams of wheat flour costs 30 pesos, and four tomatoes cost 80 pesos.
Riso, also a currency, is lower than Birla, 1 Bela can be exchanged for 1 huliso.
Then there was the olive oil, which Rogo bought in small bottles, about 100 milliliters, seven and five lisos a bottle, and a small packet of salt, 50 grams, 30 lisos.
Together with the other items, it cost a total of 3 bella 85 lisos.
Although it is completely different from the world in the previous life in terms of the underlying logic of the items, it does not prevent Rogo from doing a simple exchange rate conversion through the ordinary ingredients here.
To put it narrowly, the purchasing power of 1 Bella is about 300 yuan in a previous life.
That is, this time he went out, and he spent 1155!
Even if you deduct oil, salt and cooking utensils, and use half a catty of flour, two eggs, and two tomatoes, the cost is 213!
And that's not counting the success rate of the production! The cost of a rollover doubles!
The hall master of Stek told him that if the success rate of making it was higher than sixty percent, he was already proficient in a dish.
How much does this bowl of noodles have to sell for!
At least 400 went, right?
That is, at least 2 bellas a bowl.
The other Rogo didn't know, but he knew that his adoptive father, Knight Rodel, as a second-level knight, had an annual income of about two or three hundred bellas.
A second-level knight can't guarantee that he eats a first-class meal every day, and most of the time he has to eat ordinary food without energy to fill his stomach.
No wonder Donna complained that cultivation was burning money.
It's really expensive!
……
Retracting some of his distant thoughts, Rogo's gaze fell on the ingredients.
Starting style: Chinese noodle soup!
Luo Ge inquired through the magic book, there are still soup noodles in this world, but they are extremely rare, especially for the understanding of noodles, which is completely different from Chinese noodles.
The noodles here refer to the pasta of Blue Star, which is hard and chewy, not as soft as Chinese noodles.
So the key to this dish is not the tomato and egg soup, although the soup is also important, but the real core is the noodles.
……
The first step, of course, is to make noodles. Because it is the first time to make it, there is not so much exquisiteness, so Rogo plans to make a simple hand-rolled dough directly.
Rogo first boiled some hot water in a soup pot and put it in a cup to cool.
Then, according to memory, first pour flour into the basin.
At the moment, there is no basin at the moment, so I use a soup pot instead.
Rogo poured half of the flour, then added a little salt to it, beat another egg, and fell into the flour.
It was only when Rogo tried to stir it that the flour began to bounce on its own.
"it!"
Rogo was quick to pick up the soup pot and throw it out of the room along the window.
Immediately, a muffled "bang" was heard, and the soup pot was swept up two or three meters high by a wave of explosive gas, and fell down heavily.
Rogo ran out the door and picked up the soup pot, which had already cracked several times.
"This ...... Is noodles also cooking? ”
……
Rogo sat in his chair and analyzed carefully.
Theoretically, salt is added to the flour to prevent the dough from becoming sour, while eggs are added to improve the texture and extensibility of the dough on the other.
From this point of view, it will indeed cause the disorder of the internal energy of the ingredients, and this is what happened just now.
Therefore, starting from the harmony, the soul power will begin to be controlled.
Rogo sighed, sure enough, cooking in this world is not as easy as he imagined.
The noodles haven't come out yet, so I've fried a pan first.
It's not good to be a teacher!
Standing up, Rogo walked out.
If you want to continue making noodles, you have to go and buy a pot first!
