my age of magic

Chapter 294 94. The First Battlefield Merchant
The delicious thick soup smells far away. The taste of saber-toothed tiger meat is actually not better than that of unicorn beef, and it is even a bit old. It's different, when many teams around are still cooking canned luncheon meat for a delicious dinner, the strong aroma makes their eyes glance over from time to time, obviously they can't help but want to see what is cooked in our soup pot!
The girl who was going to take care of Marvin on this rock was also sitting on the edge, eating the hot pot silently. She ate very carefully, trying to chew every fiber of the tiger meat and crush it, so as to fully absorb the nutrients in the tiger meat and energy.I suddenly realized a problem, if the girl stayed on this rock alone with the injured Marvin, how would she survive, after all, she would stay here for a full fourteen days.

What about food?When no team set off, they prepared food for fifteen days. All the teams planned to use local materials. Maybe she could live by picking some wild vegetables. I frowned and thought, why not take these saber-toothed tigers? Leave some meat for her, if it is handled properly, it should be able to eat for fifteen days.

"Maybe, we can have a better way!" I looked at the soup pot that kept boiling water, and thought of an idea.Why don't you use these delicious soup pots to make a little fuss, as well as the forty fire-gathering scrolls prepared in the magic pocket, don't you also want to sell them in Xinwillow Valley? Since the girl who takes care of Marvin needs to make a living, then here It may be a good idea to start a small business on the schist rock.

Thinking of this, I told the girl what I was thinking, but at the beginning, it was obvious that she didn't hear clearly, maybe she was a little absent-minded.

"What?" The girl raised her head and asked me in a daze, her eyebrows were drawn thick.

I explained my thoughts to her again.

"You mean to let me learn how to cook such broth, and then sell it to my classmates in exchange for some living materials?" The girl's head was finally opened, and she suddenly realized. "But I'm not good at cooking, I don't know how to make such a soup, and I don't have such a superb knife skill, I can cut meat as thin as a leaf, even if I learn this, but where can I get these It can be saber-toothed tiger meat, if this meat is brought back to El City, it will definitely sell for a good price, this is saber-toothed tiger meat that can increase a little bit of strength after eating!"

I thought about it, and then I tried to tell her in a way that she could understand: "I can prepare the ingredients, you just need to add water in an appropriate proportion, but cutting meat can't be learned in a day or two, but The meat I asked you to cook is not the hot pot we eat now!"

"This soup is called hotpot? It's a very apt name. I like hotpot very much! Jia." Darwin interrupted and said happily, and then said to Rita beside him, "Rita, can you make hotpot?"

Rita shook her head in confusion.

"But I will, how about I invite you to have hot pot with your grandma some other day..." Darwin said glibly.

I always thought he was an honest guy, but I didn't expect this guy to show his true colors in just one day.

Rita lowered her head in embarrassment, gave Darwin a hard look, and did not answer.

"What I'm teaching you is a delicacy called stewed pork, okay! To put it simply, it is to cook the meat in a soup pot. After it is cooked, it becomes a delicious food. Maybe you should share it with me tomorrow morning Do it together, there are some things, you will know if you can do it after you try it!" I lobbied the girl.

"What should I exchange for this food?" The girl was still at a loss. After all, it was the first time for her to walk out of the house, and she had no worries about food and clothing since she was a child. It may be starvation or digging wild vegetables to spend half a month. The help of friends cannot solve the real problem.

"Everything you need for life, if you have a surplus, maybe you can exchange it for some magic herbs to take back!" I explained to her.

The girl finally understood what else she should need in the next half month. After thinking carefully for a while, she felt that my solution was feasible, so she agreed.

In fact, before I went to bed, I took the girl to put a whole pot of saber-toothed tiger meat in the iron pan. Along the edge, fill with water again.After placing the magic scroll of Gathering Fire on the bottom of the pot and fixing it, everything will be done.Darwin, who was sitting not far away, said to me at this time: "Jia, this is not just ordinary stew, but the name you mentioned is a bit special, braised pork."

...beautiful dividing line...

There is no dusk or morning in Xinliu Valley. You can only determine whether you have passed the day with the hourglass you carry with you. This timing hourglass is very accurate. Every time it is turned over, it happens to be the time when day and night alternate on the Green Continent, but If someone forgets to flip the hourglass at that particular time, there is a chance that the hourglass is off.

It was always so dark in the tent, and Darwin was lying face down beside me. He had a wound on his back, and only this position could prevent the wound from being compressed.I opened my eyes and fumbled for the hourglass beside me. According to the time in Greenland, it was already morning. I rubbed my sleepy eyes and crawled out of the tent lightly.

When I got out of the tent, I saw expedition teams returning to the rock one after another, and some expedition teams began to dismantle the tents and prepare to set off.The expedition team has passed the initial stage of excitement, and now their minds are gradually calming down. Casualties have already occurred, and even one team has been wiped out. Only the girl and the magic apprentice survived. The news cast a haze over the minds of other expedition teams on the rock.

Student Meng finally understands that adventure is not the same as travel. This place is full of unknown dangers, but also full of opportunities and wealth.

Perhaps because she was truly aware of the pressure of future life, the girl stood by the iron pot early on, watching the fragrant stewed meat in the iron pot in a daze, and the magic apprentice Marvin leaned against the tent with a pale face. On the side, the girl did not know where to find a tree stump, so she let Marvin lean on it. At this time, Marvin squinted his eyes and looked at me, smiled at me with some difficulty, and said in a weak voice: "Jia , Thank you for saving me and Si Pei."

Marvin looked at the girl who was staring blankly at the pot of stewed meat, and there was a soft light in her eyes. Only in times of adversity can he know who cares about him the most.

Marvin and I are in the same class, but the magic apprentices in the fire magic class are usually headed by Thomas, and we usually don't have any communication when we meet.He is in his circle, and he can be considered a respected person, which shows that his magic studies should be at the top.

"Students, it's a shame to talk about this. Unfortunately, I can't heal your injury. When we heard the call for help, it was too late to rush there! I'm sorry!" I said apologetically to Marvin.

Marvin lowered his head sadly, sighed and said, "It's our bad luck!"

"How's your arm?" I asked him, it looked like the girl Spee had helped him re-wrap one side, I don't know if he had applied those herbs or not.

"Your herbs are very effective. I know the effect of 'hydrotherapy'. It can only superficially heal some new wounds, but the effect is extremely limited!" He saw me staring at his broken arm, knowing that I was worried about his injury, After a while, he said again: "It's okay, the prosthetics in the Orianna puppet store are very useful. I will buy one immediately after I go back, and it will not affect my future life!"

Hearing Marvin's self-deprecating words, I could only go along with it and smiled.

I heard Marvin continue to say: "Last night, when I woke up, Si Pei told me something that happened when I was in a coma. Thank you for thinking about us from the beginning to the end, and doing your best for our future life. consider."

He himself was a little weak, and he was out of breath after talking so much at once. I wanted him to rest for a while, but he waved his hand to me and said, "Please let me finish speaking in one breath, otherwise, I don't know what else to say." Didn't say anything about it!"

I had to shut up!
"I know!" Marvin gasped.

I quietly waited for him to say the following, and I saw some hesitation in his eyes, as if his self-esteem was fighting deep in his heart.

"I know that you are the merchant who sells the scrolls of concentrated fire in the market. I was wandering in the market that day. I wanted to buy a primary rune metal plate, but I didn't expect to see you and Ying Li selling magic at a stall. Scrolls, there were too many people around at that time, I couldn’t squeeze in, I only heard that Helena, the first freshman beauty of the Warrior Academy, was setting up a stall to sell magic scrolls, it is said that they are scrolls that can replace bonfires!”

Marvin turned his head with difficulty to look at the fire-focus scroll that had been burning steadily not far away, and then turned his gaze to the distance, seeing that there were several bonfires in the distance that also used this scroll, and then he continued to say to me: "It's very Convenient, isn't it?"

I can only nod my head, this thing is the best carry-on item for the hunting team, who cares about having an extra scroll in the backpack!

"Later, many people came to the small market attracted by the name and wanted to buy again, but it's a pity that you never showed up again!" Marvin said to me.

"What do you think?" I asked him.

"It's your idea. You told Si Pei how to live well within half a month, and even taught her a way to make a living, so this matter inspired me! I think we can cooperate, by me Come to sell your fire-focus magic scrolls, and I will keep the price above the reserve price you set, maybe we don’t need those heavy silver coins and gold coins, there are magic materials everywhere here, these are very important for us magicians It is the most precious." Marvin's eyes became brighter.

He continued on to me: "I have my strengths."

I was a little stunned, not knowing where his so-called advantages were.

"My advantage is that I am a wounded person. I am a wounded magician. I have enough reasons to make a living as a businessman. No one will point at me. Here in the rock, if you stand up and buy those Even if the magic scroll can be sold, others will still criticize you behind your back, saying that you are a profiteer who only knows how to speculate, and you are not worthy of being a magician at all!" Marvin said to me.

After hearing what Marvin said, it made me blush a little. In fact, my original purpose of packing so many magic scrolls in the magic backpack was to take the opportunity to sell them at a good price in Xinliu Valley. What he said hit my mind.

"Good! Wish us a happy cooperation." I said to Marvin.

"Happy cooperation!"

Maybe this is my best choice. Before setting off, it would be great to be able to empty all the magic scrolls in those pockets.

I asked Marvin, "How do you know that I still have a lot of focus fire scrolls in my magic pocket?"

Marvin smiled and pointed to the two bonfires on the ground and said: "Those who can light two bonfires with scrolls will not care too much about it, maybe it is very cheap for you, maybe you have a lot of these things , maybe both!"

Marvin is a smart man, his eyes always hide the brilliance of wisdom, and now he looks a little weak.

However, when I took out all the magic scrolls, they were piled up like a hill in front of Marvin. Even though Marvin had expected that I carried a lot of magic scrolls with me, he didn't expect that there would be so many. There were more than 40 bundles of concentrated fire scrolls, as well as some frost scrolls and hydrotherapy scrolls, all of which were handed over to Marvin.

Marvin said to me: "I can't guarantee that all of these will be sold!"

"If you can sell all of them, then I will feel strange!" I started to walk towards Si Pei, who was still waiting for me to teach her all the techniques of braised pork.

"Hey, you haven't set a price yet!" Marvin said to me urgently.

Since I chose to cooperate with Ma Wen, I chose to trust him, so I said to him easily: "You decide the price!"

He may not have thought of how cheap my magic scrolls are, and he also doesn't know that even a real inscription master will have a higher success rate in making these scrolls than me. All in all, I have a frighteningly high success rate for crafting magic scrolls.

The aroma of stewed meat enveloped the entire rock, and many students were curious to find out which expedition team could cook the meat so deliciously. Finally, some people began to discover that it was the last surviving girl from the team that was destroyed yesterday. Pot meat, I heard that it is carefully prepared stewed meat for the team that rescued her and the injured magic apprentices. Just smelling the aroma, you can drool non-stop, so some students who know the female warrior apprentice Si Pei, go Come over and ask what kind of meat this is, it can be so delicious.

Saber-toothed tiger meat, not every team has the ability to hunt saber-toothed tigers, so when the students heard that the meat in the pot was the magical beast that can increase the body's strength after eating - saber-toothed tiger meat, some people began to be less calm.

Warrior apprentices almost go through a huge amount of exercise every day, forcing their bodies to grow in strength, and only the trainers themselves know the hard work.

Now, this kind of food that can increase strength suddenly appeared here in Shanyan stronghold, and some qualified students inevitably came up with some ideas!
Or buy or exchange!

At first, Si Pei was a little embarrassed, but seeing the happy faces of those students who had successfully exchanged and left with a piece of stewed meat, Si Pei gradually began to get used to it from being unfamiliar.

Almost no one took out silver coins or gold coins to exchange for stewed meat. All the students can offer right now are some food, magic herbs, and rare ores collected from the bare ground. They put a prepared gift in Spei at their feet, and Si Pei would silently pick out a piece of saber-toothed tiger meat with a strong aroma and put it on their dinner plate.

It was a fragrance that they had never experienced before. It seemed that some unknown herbs were added to the soup. The taste that blended together and the taste that melted in the mouth finally made the students understand, oops!It turns out that this is the taste of real saber-toothed tiger meat.

The students who really know how to eat, began to talk about carefully cutting the meat into dices or slices, served with a piece of wheat cake, and sat down with their partners to enjoy the Warcraft fresh meat feast quietly.

They insisted that the saber-toothed cat meat would increase the strength of the body, and the people in Ayr said so.
