book of old days

Chapter 144 Gourmet Plan
When Sean walked out of the gate of the library, it was already dark, and the lights of gas lamps appeared on the streets of the city, which was a symbol of civilization unique to this era.

Sean walked under the dim night light, still thinking about the information he just saw in his mind.

He has already decided on the method of hatching this egg, first to recognize the owner with a drop of blood, and then hatch it with the appropriate energy, but in case an unknown monster hatches, it must be fully prepared. OK.

It is best to find a confined space, install explosives and traps, and if the hatched things cannot be controlled, just take them away.

Without the influence of the power of faith, I don't know if gods will hatch from this egg.

As he thought about it, he couldn't help touching his pocket. Although he had already read most of the contents of the book, Sean chose to borrow it and brought out the "Nord Mythology Test" to prepare for the future. Have a chance to refer to it again.

At this time, a scent caught his attention. He looked up, and at some point, he came to a street with a strong commercial atmosphere. There were food stalls on both sides of the street, smoked venison, fried oil cakes , Nut muffins, meat soup, all kinds of local snacks exude a strong smell that is either delicious or weird.

The scene in front of him made Sean very kind, and reminded him of some experiences in his previous life.

He took out a handful of copper and silver coins, intending to buy some to try, and bring them back if he couldn't eat them.

Ever since he got the Dimensional Pocket, he has the habit of hoarding food, whether it tastes good or not, it doesn't matter if he buys it, anyway, he can pile it up casually.

He bought a few nut muffins, which are pies baked with fat, flour, butter and various nuts. Unusual sweet smell.

But in this era, it still seems to be a rather high-end food.

He also bought a bowl of offal soup, a thick stew made of meat and offal, which cost a few pennies to buy a bowl. The soup was rich in meat and was very popular with poor manual workers.

However, due to the lack of seasoning, the taste is quite difficult to swallow.

Sean took a few sips and put it aside, but the taste of the fried oil cake was not bad, but it was a bit greasy.

Sean walked and ate all the way. Generally speaking, the taste of street food here is not satisfactory. After all, there are not as many seasonings as in the modern world, and there are not so many refined food ingredients. They still have some original food flavors. Not so much a snack, but more like a staple food.

Sean can't help but miss the street food he ate in his previous life, such as fried chicken, grilled skewers, grilled cold noodles, grilled oysters... Today, the taste of those foods in his mind has become a little fuzzy, but they are even more intriguing .

Alas, I still can't eat it after all.

But that's not necessarily the case, these street snacks are not that complicated. Since I can reproduce braised pork, pot-wrapped pork, and Northeast stew, it's so difficult to reproduce some street snacks.

For fried chicken, just research the right seasoning and batter, coat the chicken and fry it.

Skewers are even easier, and have been done more than once in Nordfüssen.

Grilled cold noodles is a problem, and grilled oysters can only be tasted after going to the beach.

By the way, I have ice stones in my hand, and I can get a freezer later, but it may not be impossible to make it. When I have money and leisure in the future, I can make a good one.

While thinking wildly, he walked towards the hotel, unknowingly drooling.

Back at the hotel, it was completely dark, and in the lobby of the hotel, the guests were having dinner.

The food at the inn, like most food in this day and age, is mediocre.

Cooked pea soup, grilled sausages, fried pork chops, pickled wild onions, and the staple food that has never changed for thousands of years-bread.

Sean stuffed a bunch of street food in his stomach, but he wasn't very hungry. He just took a piece of bread and went upstairs. He opened the door of the room while he gnawed on the dry and hard bread.

Agatha was sitting at the desk next to the bed, writing and drawing and calculating.

What makes Xiao En a little strange is that she is still wearing the old-fashioned attire when she goes out during the day, which is really unbelievable. She has just come into contact with big cities and still has a lot of money in her hand, so she can resist going shopping. Could the women in this world be another kind of creature?
"Hey, how's your shopping today?"

"It's very rewarding!" Agatha sighed and felt a little regretful, "I have taken a fancy to a store, but unfortunately the rent is too expensive. The consumption of Norem is really unmatched by Nordfüssen. I still eat in the upper city. After lunch, a serving of venison stewed in red wine cost three silver tacos, it’s crazy! I’m not even full, and the taste is very ordinary, not comparable to the braised pork I made.”

As she spoke, she grabbed the nut muffin handed over by Sean and gnawed it.

Xiao En said that's for sure, the food culture of this era has not developed much, let alone the food desert of Nord.

He was not surprised by this result. Although he didn't know how much bounty Agatha got after killing the big black mouse, Norem is still a second-tier city, the largest city in the province of Nord, and the city center. Certainly not cheap.

When it comes to restaurants, Sean's heart is moved. The so-called people depend on food. No matter which world or region they go to, eating is an indispensable thing for people. Especially in this era of lack of entertainment facilities, food is even more important. An important treat for the rich.

If he can run a large restaurant chain, he might be able to gain a lot of power of faith.

His original plan to use business to gain the power of faith was to get out electric lights, and then open a Helios lighting store and print his own LOGO on it. People will think of themselves when they look at the lights at home, and they will definitely get a lot of money. The power of faith.

It's a pity that although the idea is good, it can't be realized. He doesn't know how to make an electric light at all. He just knows the principle, and the filament is made of tungsten wire, but he has no idea how to make tungsten. Let him invent something. It's a bit difficult.

In contrast, developing food is much simpler.

Thinking of this, he smiled slightly: "How much is the rent for that store?"

"One hundred gold pounds a month will cost twelve hundred gold pounds a year."

It is indeed not cheap. You must know that Sean bought the mansion in Oak Valley for only 500 gold pounds, and 1200 gold pounds is just the rent. People, always hoard materials.

It's all money.

"How big is that store?"

"It's very big, about the same size as this hotel. I originally wanted to open a large restaurant, but it seems that I can only find a small shop to do it first."

"No, that's not necessarily the case. I'll go and have a look with you tomorrow. I have a plan. Maybe we can cooperate."

Early the next morning, the two arrived outside the storefront.

This is a rather grand two-story building. Like most shops in this era, it has wooden windows inlaid with glass, and a shop for lease sign is hung outside the door. In this era, due to the limitations of construction technology, even In big cities, there are generally two or three-story buildings of this kind. Only some iconic representative buildings can be built extraordinarily tall.

Sean opened the door and walked in. A fat man was discussing something with a few businessmen wearing top hats. Seeing Sean and Agatha walking in, he felt helpless.

"As I said yesterday, 100 gold pounds a month, no bargaining."

Sean cut to the chase, "If I plan to buy this house, how many gold coins do I need?"

The fat man took a look at Xiao En, and said expressionlessly: "Twenty thousand gold pounds, even a penny less, my building has a title deed."

"Deal." Sean also said expressionlessly.
