Chapter Fifty-Three: Small Town Food

Neo was both pleased and annoyed by the return of the Barbarian brothers, who brought back three thousand slaves, five hundred of whom were skilled craftsmen. This is what the town needs most! This also doubled the population of the town, and the food was good, but the already stretched houses were even more strained.

Fortunately, Marquis Mario allocated tents to these slaves, and now they can only be temporarily crammed into tents.

Soon, the town will have to face a large number of visitors from the Holy Sect of Light, and Neo can only take one step at a time, which is probably what people call the troubles of happiness.

It was the first time that Fenglin Town had initiated such a large-scale construction, and various materials soon became in short supply. Musin and Lloyd are busy, but the town now has a lot of gold coins, and everything is easy to do with money. Buy, buy, buy, Neo said proudly.

In the days that followed, various supplies flowed to the town. After the nobles of the Frost Moon Leader learned that the high-level leaders of the Bright Holy Sect were coming, they all sent people to help.

Maple Grove is visited every day, and the town is expanding rapidly, but there is still a lot of work to be done.

Neo has also become a busy man now, as the owner of the town, whether it is an old friend or a new guest, Neo can not be rude, and has endless receptions and entertainment every day.

Alonso and his wife were accompanied by the Hodak brothers, and Master Sean also temporarily let go of the mustard in his heart under Neo's sincere apology, and he didn't want anyone to accompany him, so he walked the streets and alleys alone, and after a few days, he really met a few friends.

The wisdom of the working people is endless, and now in Maple Grove Town, since Neo taught everyone how to make dumplings at the Old Hans Tavern that night, the people of the town have inferred from each other and invented more than a dozen kinds of food such as steamed buns and potstickers on their own.

On the streets of the town, in addition to the old Hans tavern, there are two more restaurants and a steamed bun shop, one restaurant sells hot pot and the other restaurant sells crayfish.

These were all taught to the townspeople by the Grand Chef of the Lord's Mansion, Clemier, and are said to have been taught by Master Neo, all from the books in the Ice Goddess's Garden.

I also heard that these two dishes belong to the same genre, what is that genre called Flame Demon Kitchen, most of the inherited dishes of this genre are hot and spicy, and the name of this hot pot restaurant is also called Flame Demon Hot Pot.

The real fire demon has never been seen by everyone, but the dishes of this fire demon school are indeed very refreshing to eat, and it is very suitable to eat in the cold northland, and the more spicy it is, the more enjoyable it is, and it is best to have two more than two dozen such fire demons.

It was lunch time, and Sean and Old Hans and Mansarelin were already sitting in the hot pot restaurant.

Driven by Neo, chopsticks have become a favorite tableware for the people of the town.

Old Hans picked up a piece of hairy belly and put it into the boiling soup and said, "The things handed down by the goddess are good to use, and the internal organs of such animals were not eaten by the nobles and adults, and all were thrown away." It's a shame to think about it now. In the past, if they knew that they could still eat like this, who would be willing to throw it away. Manzarelin was also scalding a duck intestine: "In the past, if I knew that this thing could be eaten, the big guys would have a much better life, and they wouldn't have suffered so much hunger." Now these things are expensive, since Lord Neo taught everyone to eat like this, the entire Frost Moon Territory has followed suit, and even Bishop Fang Kangting is full of praise after eating it. ”

Old Hans put the scalded hairy belly in his mouth, and then clamped the chopsticks in his hand: "And these chopsticks, such two wooden sticks, replace all the knives and forks, which is really practical for us ordinary people." Now my family and my daughter-in-law are making this at home, listen to Lord Neo, in the future, this chopsticks will be used as a specialty of our Fenglin Town, people from outside, when they leave, it is estimated that everyone will buy and take away, this chopsticks are cheap and easy to make, compared to the knives and forks we used to use are much more convenient, so these knives and forks, we people are also a burden at home. The goddess really favored Lord Neo, and so many good things were taught. There have also been patrons of goddesses in the history of the mainland, but I have never heard of anyone who has received so many gifts. What Nathan said that day may be true. "Old Hans already saw Neo in his heart as the benevolent embodiment of the goddess.

Sean also clamped the chopsticks in his hand and said: "This chopsticks are really practical, and every family can afford to use them, including those slaves, who no longer have to eat with their hands when they use chopsticks." It's just that these chopsticks are too easy to make, and they should soon spread on the mainland. ”

Mansalelin picked up another piece of kidney and put it in the pot and said, "Can that be the same?" The chopsticks in our Fenglin Town are the first in the whole continent, and they were taught by Her Royal Highness the Goddess herself. ”

"What I said is that this time everyone really felt the glory of the goddess, let's just say this hot pot, who can come up with this method, it's so delicious. Eat a hot pot and drink two sips on this cold day, even if you give me a noble title, I won't change it. There are also crayfish, which used to be caught by children and boiled in water and eaten, and the meat was scarce and full of fishy smell, so adults didn't eat it, and regarded it as a child's play. Who would have thought that if you follow Master Neo's method, it will be so delicious. ”

Old Hans raised his glass again and invited the two of them to touch it, and then drank it in one gulp, and Mansalelin said, "I said, Old Hans, should you add a few more new foods to your tavern, otherwise I am afraid that your business will be affected in the future." ”

Old Hans said as he poured wine for everyone: "Don't be afraid, in the future we will have more and more people here, and there will be more taverns of all kinds, so I will not rob business." Now everyone's life is better, and they can all have enough to eat. I don't want to make much money, but if I can pass on the brewing skills of my ancestors, I will be satisfied. ”

Mansalelin took a handful of chicken gizzards on bamboo skewers and put them in the pot and said, "What? Moved by the heart of the apprentice? Don't you pass it on to your grandchildren? ”

"Don't worry, Lord Neo said, we still have a large number of people here to join in a while, and then let's see who is right."

Sean asked, "All those who came were slaves, could Lord Neo pardon them all and restore them to the status of free people?" ”

Mansarelyn replied, "You don't know, Lord Neo said when he first returned here that we in Maple Grove will slowly ban slaves in the future, and all his territory must be free people. For now, these slaves, only in the future if they do not violate the laws of our Maple Grove Town, will be free again. ”

Sean said, "If Lord Neo really does this, it will offend many nobles." ”

"What are you afraid of! If you offend, you will be offended, Lord Neo, as the patron of Her Royal Highness the Goddess, is he still afraid of offending a few nobles? Besides, these policies may have been made by Her Highness the Goddess to do this. ”

"I think so, too, Lord Neo is so merciful, where did you say you have seen such a merciful god." Eating novel and delicious food, the three of them chatted warmly about the changes in Maple Grove Town.
