The girls did not return to Bristle-Wolf City on Friday, but stayed directly at Chamber of Commerce accommodation in Dragon Tooth City.
For dinner, Landen specially ordered a dozen live sea fish and two kilograms of sea shrimp, and had the seafood store deliver them directly to Chamber of Commerce.
Large seafood stores have special buckets for fresh fish. There are a few Rune in the bucket to slow down the life of the live fish as much as possible.
"It's so salty. Why is it the same as the salt water in Salt Mine?" Firefly comes from a family in the market. They are very familiar with fresh fish and butchering, and are most interested in these live fish.
"None of you have seen the sea?" Landen regretted it when he asked, because "Landen·Gallop" had never seen it either. He had only been to the seaside in his previous life.
"No, sir, have you seen it?" The girls looked at each other. The sea was too far away for them.
"No." Landen was a little embarrassed, "I saw there were several murals by the Southeast Kingdom in the Blue Dragon library, with seascapes painted on them."
"Then how do you know that shrimps should be salt-roasted?" Wendy looked at 7 or 8 forearm-sized red prawns neatly spread on the coarse salt on the baking pan. The water from the roasting was completely absorbed by the salt layer, but the meat of the prawns was well preserved.
"Blue Dragon School Is there a new seafood restaurant over there?" Back then, Wendy had eaten in all the restaurants around the college. He even went to several famous restaurants in Imperial Capital. He had never heard of this practice, nor had he seen anyone directly picking out the shrimp threads with a needle.
"This..." Landen thought quickly, "So I ask you to read more. This method is found in several travel books."
"Sir, if any noble lady taught you this, just tell me," Johnny said with a smile.
"Hahaha" the girls laughed so much when they saw Landen making up lies. On this Royal Capital night, they were extremely busy.
Landen first went to a relatively large seafood restaurant on Saturday morning. This restaurant was the Blue Dragon Family business introduced by Dugan. Naturally, he was able to buy the freshest Water School monsters. He picked 5 Ball Electric Eel and skipped the store's suggestion of afternoon delivery and picked them up in the morning.
It is not uncommon for nobles to bring Landen home to eat. In the afternoon, the restaurant's chef will go to Chamber of Commerce to cook.
Ball Electric Eel only exists in the deep sea. It is a relatively rare deep-sea seafood in coastal areas. However, Ball Electric Eel has very high requirements for survival water temperature and water pressure. Basically, it can only be fished by Water School magic Mage. After fishing, it is sent to various big cities by specific magic devices. The price of each fish is more than 20 Gold Coin, and the supply is basically in short supply.
Please ask Antrechi to take special care of these 5 items of Landen.
The restaurant knew that the person who bought it was a partner of the Blue Dragon Family, and specially sent chef Kuro Milt to Chamber of Commerce to prepare for on-site butchering and production.
Kuro Milt himself is Mage Apprentice, and has a certain foundation of Battle Qi, which can barely be counted as Junior Knight. Only Mana-Wielder like him can easily kill low-level monsters Ball Electric Eel.
When Kuro arrived at Landen Chamber of Commerce, he saw 5 huge transparent Glass as soon as he entered the door. Water Tank, Water Tank There is no Magic Pattern on the surface facing the outside of the door. You can clearly see Ball Electric Eel swimming happily inside the box. There is a light-emitting Magic Array on the top of the box, so that the situation inside the box can be clearly seen. There are three Magic Pattern for cooling, life and Purification on the bottom of the box.
"What? What's going on?" Kuro knew very well that these Ball Electric Eel were delivered in the morning. It stands to reason that the commonly used preservation methods on the market can ensure that these low-level monsters can survive until the afternoon at most. It is impossible for them to still be so energetic now.
This is the result of the girls' work. Landen bought live fish to adjust the proportion of salt concentration in seawater, and also specifically looked for cold-water fish to adjust the temperature and power of Magic Array.
After a night of tinkering, the Glass water tank made by Wendy and other girls became a qualified seawater tank. At least the more expensive live fish can be put in and it can be stored for 4 or 5 days.
"Chef Kuro, thank you for coming. Please pick the freshest one for me." Landen looked at the chef's surprised look and felt that the job was half successful. "There is an oven and a production table in front of the fish tank. Please kill and bake it now. I have high requirements for eating, and I hope I can watch it being cooked."
"Okay... okay, sir." The chef was still sighing at Ball Electric Eel's vitality, and started slaughtering it.
"You guys should eat more while it's fresh. The last time I went to the seafood restaurant, the fish wasn't fresh enough. Now I have to ask the instructor to specially make this tank. It's the freshest when it's killed and cooked right now." Kuro grilled the eel while Landen and Wendy and the other girls ate, while still talking about advertising slogans, constantly stimulating the chef's business nerves.
Sure enough, the chef left Landen as soon as they finished their meal, but soon he brought the restaurant owner, a member of the Blue Dragon Family, over, hoping to buy the Glass ocean tank.
"My water tank was designed by a tutor himself. For this reason, I also found a Great Fairy tutor through connections." Landen showed a very reluctant look and pointed to the side wall of the water tank. "Look here and here, there are several Magic Arrays."
In order to arrange this marketing, Landen specially arranged for Wendy and others to go to the backyard, just to prevent them from losing their composure and exposing their secrets.
"Yes, there are at least 8 Magic Arrays drawn in this fish tank. In this way, eight Magic Arrays drawn on one utensil are at least Archmages." The restaurant owner said that there was no problem. "Can you please sell it to us in the name of Mr. Antrechi? We are willing to offer 100 Gold Coins."
For restaurants, fresh Monster fish in transparent fish tanks is the best proof of the quality of the restaurant, because the same live fish can get a higher premium in these fish tanks.
"Our instructor has only done this many," Landen showed a very embarrassed expression, "But Antrechi has to give her face, otherwise you can take this tank away."
"No, can you sell these tanks to me together?" The boss knows that a fish tank can only store one kind of monster fish at most, so he bought all the fish tanks in front of him, and he can't hold all the fish species on their menu.
"You want it all? What should I do? I still have to eat fish!" Landen pretended to be unhappy, but he was happy in his heart.
"Sir, you can ask your instructor to draw a few more, and we are willing to pay." Now the restaurant owner really took the bait.
"Just give me 100 Gold Coin, which will buy my mentor's skills. We still have to find a fish tank and Ink." Landen began to negotiate the starting price with the boss.
"No problem, let's prepare Magic Ink and Crystal Fish Tank. We must not let the instructor prepare these low-level materials."
"Then I will discuss it with my mentor and find someone to inform you if it is confirmed. I think it should be about the same. You wait for the news. If there is no problem, I will send the fish tank and Ink over tomorrow morning."
"Okay, okay, thank you" the manager left happily.
After the people in the restaurant left, Wendy and Centaur Girl came in from other rooms. They had just heard the negotiation process of Landen.
"Sir, how can you make money by painting this fish tank?"
"Yes, but I think we sell it cheaply. For restaurants, with this fish tank, they can increase the price of food several times, but we only earn a hard-earned penny." In fact, for Landen Crystal Fish Tank was originally a money-making plan conceived two weeks ago, and Landen's previous plan was to package Rune drawn by Wendy into Archmage's product.
But now, Landen's plan has changed. He has a city to build. Wendy's processing fee cannot cover the cost of building the city. The most he can do is earn some material fees.
Rather than letting Wendy produce products alone, it would be better to let her draw Magic Array for the entire territory to benefit her own people.
