Chapter 33 Transfer
"Jiayi, there is Kuska in front, there is a big transit port, we can repair the ship there, otherwise our ship will not go far. Standing on the deck, the captain said to Kaichi.
After a big battle, they were a little unaccustomed to calling themselves Young Master Jiayi, originally just for identity, but now they feel that it is not necessary, so under his own strong request, everyone began to call Jiayi by his name directly.
It's been another five days, and there are, of course, small city ports on the way, but none of them have the ability to repair ships. Their ships were too afraid to go too fast because they were wounded, so they had already seen several search ships overtake them, including the merchant ships they had encountered in front of the Dragon's Throat Stream.
"How long is it, is there ahead?" Jia Yi used his magic power and blessed his eyes with magic by the way, he hadn't learned the Eagle Eye Technique yet, so he could only make do with it like this. But he found nothing, only the trees on the shore, and not the outline of the city.
"I guess it won't be until the evening, our ship will have to be changed, I have informed the Chamber of Commerce, someone will come to meet us, change to another boat and leave. ”
"I see, I said that it will take a lot of time to repair the ship, and it will take too long if the ship is repaired. ”
If the ship is to be repaired, then the ship must be lifted out of the water, then dried, repaired, repaired, and then dried. If it is repaired directly underwater, it is easy to break down and the life will be shortened.
The price of a ship is quite high, and in order to make a ship, it takes many years to prepare the wood for drying, and after the wood is ready, it will take more than three years to make the ship. Because the climate has a great influence on the nature of the boat, it takes several months to make the boat, and after a part is done, it must continue to be air-dried.
The captain said: "Of course not, time has a great impact on the transportation of goods, if it is really delayed for a few months, then even if the goods of this ship arrive, it will not make much money." ”
"I will inform the Chamber of Commerce of this incident, and our Chamber of Commerce will compensate for the loss of freight. Speaking of losses, Jiayi is still a little embarrassed.
"Jiayi, you've already given it?"
"That's my personal compensation, this is the compensation of the Chamber of Commerce, of course it's different, you're welcome, as a mage, although he is always in a state of lack of money, he will never run out of money. Kaichi said with a smile.
Seeing that he was about to arrive at the port, Jiayi's mood was also much more relaxed, and Xiaoqing was already a little unhappy because of the reduction in forage.
In order to hurry, they did not stop the boat at the predetermined place, Xiaoqing's forage was gone, and Jiayi could only add some flour and wheat and beans to Xiaoqing from the kitchen as concentrate, but fortunately, there were still beans prepared for him. When it was time to stop the boat at night, Kaichi could only take a small boat to the shore to cut the grass. You can't let Xiaoqing eat everyone's rations.
Since Xiaoqing has eaten everyone's rations, Jia Yi must also prepare some substitutes for everyone, otherwise Jia Yi, who has not eaten others, will not feel very good. Jiayi can give his own rations to Xiaoqing, but he can't force other people's rations to give Xiaoqing.
So Jiayi is going to take Xiaoqing's beans out to make some tofu for everyone, and then take the bean dregs for Xiaoqing to eat. In fact, relatively speaking, the taste of the bean dregs after crushing is better, when Gary used to make tofu, Jiayi will also leave some bean dregs back to eat, especially fried leeks, the taste is a little dense and a little sandy, although there is beans, but it does not affect it, it can also be regarded as bean fragrance.
"It's time to eat! Fish soup cakes at noon, and dry noodles at night. At this time, Kissin's voice came out.
Kissin is now the ship's chef, and even when he's busy, the captain will divide Kissin's work among others, freeing Kissin to cook. Jiayi always can't teach Fat Di, but I didn't expect that Kissin, who learned by the way, learned it, and Kisin has great strength and good endurance, and the kneading dough is better than Jiayi, but the heat is not as good as Jiayi.
Now Fat Di is so disappointed that he feels like he is going to lose his job.
Hearing Kissin's words, Kaichi and the captain hurriedly came to the kitchen, and when it was too late, they had to do it themselves, Kissin's talent was very high, and the things he made were not much worse than Kaichi.
When they arrived at the cabin, there were already many people gathered around the table, and each with a bowl passed in front of Kissin, who made each of them a bowl of fish soup, and then brought them two oil cakes, and then the next one. The fish soup is milky white, and there are a few pieces of tofu in it, which should have been better to stew the fish with sauce, but unfortunately Jiayi didn't bring the sauce, but there is a lot of sage growing on the shore here.
The aroma of sage is strong and pungent, mixed with a hint of camphor, and the smell becomes stronger after drying, just add a little to remove the fishy smell and increase the fragrance. Jiayi can already foresee that this dish is expected to become a famous dish on this waterway in the future, because all the ingredients can be found in or by the river, and the preparation is not too complicated. With the addition of an iron pot, basically every ship can make it.
Jiayi took a sip of fish soup and said to Kissin: "Kissin, your skills are no worse than me and me, I guess you don't want to be a sailor, you can go back and change jobs and open a restaurant." ”
"This, it's a little bit close, I've only learned two or three dishes, and I'll get tired of eating it. ”
"Jiayi, don't talk nonsense. Seeing that Kisin seemed to be really a little moved, the captain was anxious, "It's good to be a sailor, and now that you have learned such a good skill in cooking, I will give you a salary increase when you go back." ”
Accustomed to Kissin's craft, who wants to try Fat Di's bad craft again, although Fat Di has grown a lot now, but now it is still a little far behind Kissin, and can only give Kissin a hand.
Jia Yi smiled for a moment and continued: "You still won't be flexible, you can change the tricks to make these two things, since there is fish noodle soup, you can also have bone soup noodles, there are other noodle soups, and this fried fish, you don't add water to boil into fish soup in the end, add a little less water, and boil until the juice is fried fish, this dough cake, you can also change the tricks to make it, and the bread and meat filling in it is a pie, and it's okay." ”
Seeing that Kissin even stopped eating, listening to what he was saying, Jia Yi stopped and drank the soup instead, before continuing: "There is also tofu, this is amazing, you can fry, boil soup, fry, how to make meat, how to make tofu, if you are willing to develop, just one tofu can make a banquet." There are also the seeds of the devil pepper I gave you, you find a place to plant them, and cooking after the harvest will increase the spiciness, which can remove the smell and increase the freshness, especially if you always run the boat, eat more spicy to dispel dampness and warm the stomach, which is similar to drinking, and it will not be as drunk as drinking.
"Look and think more, being a chef is a promising career. ”
After receiving Jiayi's on-demand, Kissin's eyes lit up, and he even forgot to continue eating.
"Hey!" the captain hurriedly put down the bowl, for fear that Kissin would be fooled and lame, "You can wait until you retire to be a chef, you are still young now, just go out to see the world, just take a look at the food in various places, absorb their advantages, and when you are old in the future, you can just learn from others to open a sailor's restaurant, and the business will be booming." ”
The captain is also super long, as if suddenly he has changed a person, and what he says is reasonable.
Kissin looked at the captain and said, "I didn't think about opening a restaurant now, but what Kaichi said is true, I can try to make more dishes and improve my skills." ”
The captain breathed a sigh of relief, glared at Jiayi, picked up the bowl and continued to eat.
