Jiayi turned the pork belly over, washed it, scraped the surface with a knife, and rubbed it with salt. Then boil a pot of boiling water, put in green onions, garlic and peppercorns, and put the pork belly in hot water and cook it slightly. Take it out again and cut it into strips.

Put cold water back in the pot, then take out the beans that have been soaked in the morning and put them in with the pork belly.

Next, it's time to boil over high heat.

After thinking about it, Jiayi felt that it was a bit too monotonous, and cut some radishes, and the pork leg bones left over from yesterday were in it. Call in Flower to watch the fire.

"Why don't you find a servant to take care of you?" said Selena, "my price is not low, and 300 gold can buy a lot of servants." ”

Jia Yi said unhappily: "You don't have any sincerity at all, although I don't know much, but I have a teacher." 300 gold is like buying my pen, looking down on me too much. ”

"Do you know how much 300 gold is?" Selena asked, frowning.

"I have something to sell to a teacher that covers my tuition for 10 years. ”

"Ten years!" Selena was taken aback, the tuition fee for ten years was not worth thousands of gold coins.

Then, Jia Yi took out a cup from Yao Lao's room, which was the glass that Jia Yi burned, and handed it to Selena: "You say, how much is this cup?"

"Huh, the glass?" Selena took the cup, worthy of being a professional, and instantly recognized it, "The glass, although it is relatively rare, is not a big deal, no more than 10 silver coins at most, it still has to be in your small remote place, if it is in the imperial capital, it is only 3 or 5 silver coins at most." ”

"Those 300 gold coins only cost 1,000 glasses, and I can make even better. "Jiayi's performance is not slight.

"The pen inscription circle can only be sold to mages, there are only so many mages in this world, and it is much more difficult to sell 1,000 pens than 1,000 glasses. ”

Kaichi shook his head, didn't speak, and walked out. He knew that Selena was secretly changing the concept, the pen can only be sold to the mage to maximize the value, not only can be sold to the mage, but it is also okay to sell it to ordinary people, but the profit is not as good as selling it to the mage, maybe selling a pen engraved with a magic circle will cost more than selling 100 ordinary fountain pens.

Seeing Selena's embarrassed appearance, Flower next to him couldn't help but say: "Selena, you can't impress Jiayi like this, he has a special idea, and sometimes, the teacher will listen to his opinion." ”

"Oh, he's so powerful?" Selena couldn't help but wonder.

"Of course, the teacher was not going to accept him, but he did, and did one thing to make the teacher pay for his tuition for ten years, and the teacher's charcoal purification essay also has his credit. And he cooks very well, he always learns things quickly, and now the teacher mainly lectures to him, and then he teaches us, and the pen is really nothing to him. Flower said.

Selena asked, "It's worth ten years of tuition, and he just told me, what can be worth ten years of tuition for a mage's apprentice? It's thousands of gold coins!"

"It's... This one is classified, but it's very profitable. Flower said that he finally remembered that the matter of salt production was a secret in the territory and could not be revealed to outsiders.

It has been more than half a year since I got the production method of snow salt, and although the amount of production is not as good as ordinary salt due to secrecy, it is expensive to sell, and I have made a lot of money.

"Even if the pen is different from that one, it can't be worth thousands of gold coins, it's impossible. Selena still thinks her offer is too high.

In fact, if it is counted as RMB, there are millions of dollars, and it is not a small deal to buy a completely new one without proving its "patent".

When the pork belly soup is cooked, it's time for dinner.

Jia began to cloth vegetables, the vegetables are packed in a large soup pot, who wants to eat their own serving, there is a small basket in the middle of the table, there is bread in it, to use for self-use.

Jiayi took the initiative to serve a bowl of soup for Selena, but I don't know why, maybe I think I am a guest from afar, or I just think that people are beautiful.

Selena sat at the table, along with Tina. She looked at the milky white soup in front of her and sniffed lightly.

"What is this? Looks pretty good. ”

Jia Yi replied: "Pork belly soup, it is better to drink some hot soup in winter." ”

"Pork belly?" Selena frowned, but didn't say anything.

The people here also eat offal, but the rich eat less. But for ordinary civilians, there is nothing that cannot be eaten, as long as it is washed and cleaned, and the most important thing is to be able to fill the stomach.

Selena scooped a spoonful of soup with a spoon, and there was no peculiar smell as expected, only a salty umami taste, rich in flavor, and a little numb taste, after drinking it, I only felt a warm current rising from my stomach. When you taste the pork belly, you just feel that it is flexible and delicious, and it has a completely different taste from the meat. There are also beans in the soup, which are cooked for a long time to make the beans very soft and glutinous.

She couldn't help but say: "I didn't expect pork belly soup to be so delicious, it's the first time I've drunk such a delicious soup." I didn't expect that Jiayi, as a mage apprentice, would be so good at cooking. ”

"Do you think there are four people here, and the other three seem to be able to cook?"

"Ahem, Selena, try this bread, it's made by Jiayi and their family, it's much better than that in Wickham City. Im couldn't help but interrupt Kaichi. Speaking of which, it is thanks to Jia Yi, during this time he was busy experimenting and developing new magic circles, and his life was all taken care of by three students.

Selena smiled, "I'll take a look at this bread." ”

"Well, how can it be so fluffy? is this really made here?" This was the first time Selena had been surprised that she felt like a hillbilly.

Although she knew that there was a mage living here, she thought that a mage in such a remote place should not be very good, so she would hide here, and the publication of the paper was just a blind cat encountering a dead mouse, and the pen did only account for a good design, in fact, it had nothing to do with magic.

Kaichi swallowed the bread in his mouth and said in a natural tone, "Mr. Imu is an excellent graduate of Longgen Academy, and he only hid in this small place so that he can study magic with peace of mind. Remember, in any case, this is also a mage's residence. ”

This time, even Yimu was surprised, and he couldn't imagine that in other words, he would have such a noble sentiment. If Jia Yi knew what he thought, he would only say, your sentiment was exchanged for my temperament.

This time, Selena really began to wonder if there was something wrong with her idea, could it be that her offer was really less?

Selena put down the bowl and said in a fearless tone, "Then you can make a price, how much do you think your pen is worth?"

Jia Yi glanced at her: "I thought you were pretending to be stupid to lower the price, but I didn't expect you to be really stupid." No wonder it makes you come over and buy a pen for the paper. What is the main business of your chamber of commerce?"

He had a feeling of disappointment, he thought she was a mature royal sister, but after a long time, she turned out to be a stupid white sweet.

Selena was a little puzzled: "What's wrong?" Could it be that she said something wrong?

"Our chamber of commerce is mainly engaged in the business of some magic items, mainly for some nobles or wealthy businessmen, and some ordinary people can use magic items. ”

"Like you're not afraid of the cold?" asked Kaichi.

"Yes. She pulled out a ruby necklace, "There's a fire-based heating circle carved into it, which can make people not afraid of the cold." ”

"Teacher, I read in a book that the heating circle restores magic, right?" Kaichi asked Im with a puzzled expression, as if he thought he had misremembered something.

But Selena only felt a taste of ridicule, and said: "It's a variant of the heating circle, which reduces the demand, cancels the effect of restoring mana, increases the effect of keeping warm, and can absorb the magic of the outside world to replenish automatically, and it can also maintain coolness in summer." ”

This is actually a weakened version of the thermostatic circle, but the gems used are more precious, and the effect of the circle above is just icing on the cake, but for women, it is indeed very practical, so that they can also wear beautiful clothes in winter.

It's just a pity that you can't wear a mink with this gem.

"Let's talk about this tomorrow, you all think about it in the evening and see if you have anything you haven't thought through, and then you will continue tomorrow, and eat now. ”

Imu didn't speak all the time, in order to train Jiayi and see if he could handle the matter of the paper well and whether he would suffer. Now that he handled it well, he interrupted their confrontation first.
