Chapter 312 Steam Fish Pot
So, Good Chicken Noyce took Mo Tan and five others out of the Grand Arena and came to the very famous 'Steam Kitchen Branch No. 77' in First Waishan. That's right, it's a branch. Just like Liuli Pavilion under the Gold Coin Chamber of Commerce is quite famous throughout the continent, Steam Kitchen, which can almost be said to be the leader in the catering industry in the Innocence Realm, also has branches across the continent, and its owner is also related to Gold Coin. The steam consortium with the same reputation as the Chamber of Commerce was founded by a dwarf engineer named Watt W Condensation. He made countless inventions in his life, but the one that had the greatest influence on the world was steam... the fish pot, yes, the steam fish invented by Watt. The pot is very, very famous and very delicious, and even his own name has been used by later generations as "Is your head so hot?" ’ This metaphor refers to the saying that ‘you can raise fish with water in your head’, which shows the great influence of the steam fish pot.
"Many records and stories describe Watt and the goblin businessman Gallywix Malti, who is more than 20 years older than him, as lifelong enemies. Hiss~ delicious!" Noyce took a sip. Steaming pearl wine, he smiled at Mo Tan and others at the same table with a red face: "There are even people who wrote a long story called "Gold Coins and Fish Pots" just based on their imagination, which is regarded as extremely popular by many people. A professional, realistic and enlightening business classic that makes people laugh out loud.”
Jadeka blinked, stuffed a fragrant fish steak into his mouth, and smacked his lips. While saying: "I know Gallywix Malti, he is the founder of the Gold Coin Chamber of Commerce. I also read "Gold Coins and Fish Pots" when I was a child. I think the writing is pretty good."
Next to Ya Ya, who was holding a basin of steamed meat and devouring his food, muttered without raising his head: "I've heard of it, I've never seen it, I don't like Wang Shu..."
Even Yaya has heard of it. It seems that the book called "Gold Coins and Fish Pot" should indeed be quite famous in the Innocence Continent. However, the three players all looked at a loss. Although Mo Tan was I had scanned this book in Sala Moon's library when I was 'Tan Mo', but I had only glanced at it. As for Ji Xiaoge and Lu Jiang, they really hadn't even read it.
"The writing is good. The bard is quite talented." Noyce took a large piece of fish from the steaming pot and quickly picked out all the burrs inside. , handed the plate to Yaya, and then shrugged at Jadeka: "But the content inside is basically nonsense. Everyone knows that Watt invented the steam fish pot. Gary, who is twenty years older than him, Vickers is indeed the founder of the Gold Coin Chamber of Commerce, but the conflicts and intrigues between the two are all nonsense."
Several players were also curious at this time. Heart, Lu Jiang struggled to swallow the falcon eggs in his mouth, and curiously asked Noyce: "Why do you say it's nonsense?"
"Oh, because Watt and Gallywix are Good friends, very, very good friends." Noyce made a face and called the lizard man waiter in the distance to come over and add a basin of steamed meat and two portions of falcon eggs, then turned around and winked at the deer sauce. He blinked: "The first person to taste the steam fish pot back then was Gallywicks. At that time, he had already established the prototype of the Gold Coin Chamber of Commerce. At first, he just wanted to ask Watt to order a batch of parts. Because it was cheap, he went there in person. The day of the visit happened to coincide with the completion of the steam pot trial model, and then Watt stayed for a meal..."
Ji Xiaoge elegantly picked up a small piece of fish and put it in his mouth, savoring the aftertaste. He sighed endlessly: "I am so happy!"
"Same feeling."
Mo Tan, who was carefully picking up the fish bones, nodded in agreement. He actually didn't like fish, mainly because it was troublesome, but he didn't expect that a fish dish in the game would actually It was so delicious, with impeccable meat quality, texture and soup. Although it was just a sensory simulation in the game, it still gave him a real sense of happiness after eating it.
Of course, I have to mention here that Mo Tan, who rarely goes out to restaurants, and even if he does, rarely orders expensive dishes, actually easily feels happiness from food. As for what he cooks himself Because cooking involves labor, no matter how delicious it is, it will only be attributed to a 'sense of accomplishment'.
“Gallywix thought so too.” Noyce nodded with emotion and shook his pair of brown wings gathered behind him: “So he gave it directly in his own name at that time. Watt gave him 200,000 gold coins to promote the steam fish pot. Later, he secretly supported Watt to establish a steam consortium that would be as famous as the Gold Coin Chamber of Commerce in the future. Every year, he would take time to go to Watt's house to eat the original version of the fish pot for half a month. People are good friends until they die, and the embellished thoughts of future generations are naturally nonsense~"
Jadeka's jaw almost dropped when he heard this: "No way. ! I always thought these two were incompatible rivals!”
"I can understand it. After all, history is always complicated and confusing." Mo Tan accepted it quickly. He divided most of the fish meat that had been picked out and put it into the teeth that were squealing before, and said with a smile: "Furthermore, goblins and dwarfs are two races that are not easy to deal with. The Steam Consortium and the Gold Coin Merchant Guild are equally famous, and the two founders happen to be from the same era. It's hard not to think too much."
< br>Noyce laughed: "That makes sense, but few people think about why Watt, as an engineer, can run the consortium smoothly, while the Gold Coin Chamber of Commerce, which likes to get involved in everything, is a 'coincidence' I haven’t entered the catering industry. In short, there are only a few people who can see the essence through the phenomenon.”
“But how do you know?”
Ji Xiaoge has some. He curiously asked Noyce: "There shouldn't be many people who know the truth."
"Don't use honorifics~" Noyce gave Ji Xiaoge a flirtatious smile that was obviously joking. Eyes, then shrugged: "Because I like to eat fish pot, and I am not short of time, so I have investigated it carefully."
[You have unlocked the story illustration: "Real Gold Coins and Fish Pot", Knowledge +1]
[You have unlocked the character illustration: "Watt W Condensation"]
[You have unlocked the character illustration : "Gallywix Malti"]
A series of system prompts suddenly sounded in the ears of Mo Tan, Ji Xiaoge and Lu Jiang, directly confirming what Noyce had just said.
“But I personally think that the reason why Gallywix liked to eat the original version of the fish pot back then was mainly because of his feelings.” Noyce picked his teeth with a pick while pointing to the steam fish pot in the center of the table and smiled. Said: "With the careful transformation of the Steam Consortium, the new steam pots are becoming more and more powerful each generation. Look at the latest model in front of us now. Both the heat and ingredients are automatically controlled by the equipment inside. Just go to Just add some water and a fish and it will be done~”
Ji Xiaoge's big eyes began to shine: "This is the greatest invention I have ever seen!!"
[Master Lu is afraid he will faint in the toilet from crying...]
This was Mo Tan's first reaction when he heard this sentence.
Lujiang looked at the funny and talkative sports commentator in front of him with admiration, and sincerely sighed: "Mr. Noyce is really well-informed~"
"Hi, mainly It's free." Noyce laughed and drank the last bit of pearl wine in his glass: "If you want to chat with me, you can come to me on the fifth floor of the arena, except during working hours~"
Everyone nodded in honor, and I have to say that Noyce is indeed a very friendly uncle (as defined by Ji Xiaoge). Although the first impression he gave to everyone was not very good, if you ignore the explanation With his virtuous behavior at that time, this person still gave everyone a good impression, especially since he also relieved Yaya from the fatigue state that was supposed to last for several days, and then asked a few people to give him a massage.
......
Half an hour later, when the 'celebration banquet' had reached the dessert stage, Noyce finished telling everyone a story about wizards and alchemy. After the teacher joked with Mibu Mibao, he suddenly winked at Mo Tan: "Do you mind going out with me to have a nice breeze?"
"No problem." Mo Tan, who had expected it, smiled and nodded. Nodding, he and Noyce stood up together, said hello to Jadeka, Yaya, Lujiang and Ji Xiaoge who were staring at the pot in front of them, and then walked outside together. But when the two of them reached the counter, Mo Tan stopped and asked Noyce in a low voice: "Can I ask you something?"
"Of course, as long as it doesn't involve some too complicated issues."
Noyce replied with a smile.
"It shouldn't be too complicated." Mo Tan nodded, and then asked quietly: "Fish pot...is it sold here?"
Noyce Stunned: "What did you eat just now?"
Mo Tan smiled bitterly and shook his head: "No, I mean that steam pot...is it sold here?"
"Oh!" Noyce was immediately happy, and then he put his arms around Mo Tan's shoulders and whispered with an "I understand" expression on his face: "Well, in principle, it's not for sale, but I have some differences with the person in charge here. I have a small friendship, and I have taken two pots from him before, so...hehe, easy to say!"
Mo Tan nodded: "How much is it?"
"The cost price is fifteen. Just give me twenty gold coins.”
“Okay.” Mo Tan agreed happily, and then took out 80% of his current assets from his bag. The money bag was handed over to Noyce: "Excuse me~"
Noyce patted Mo Tan on the shoulder hard: "Sure, wait~"
Then he hunched over and ran towards the kitchen.
[I'm afraid he may have misunderstood...]
Mo Tan thought about Noyce's slightly vulgar expression just now, and suddenly felt a little headache.
Although he did intend to buy a steam pot for Ji Xiaoge, he always felt that he had been subtly misunderstood in terms of motives...
Mo Tan’s idea was very simple. First of all, Ji Xiaoge Xiaoge is very interested in the steam pot itself; secondly, the method of using the steam pot is extremely simple, just put water and fish in it; thirdly, Ji Xiaoge has an extremely fond heart for cooking and a completely opposite fascination. Skills, and a fool-like operation like the steam fish pot may give her a sense of accomplishment, and it may also have a great potential to save innocent people like Jadeka, Yaya, and Lu Wei who are extremely easy to be accidentally injured or even killed. The most important thing is that Mo Tan feels that he is very rich. On this basis, he feels that since he is very rich, it is normal to do something for his friends that he can do, and there is no other emotion mixed in it. .
However, he accidentally overlooked a very important detail, that is, although he, 'Mo Tan', is very rich, it does not mean that the current character named 'Mo' is also very rich. It is not as rich as Mo Tan in reality. The difference is Mo Tan's money. In the realm of innocence, although Hei Fan, Tan Mo and Mo's money are indeed Mo Tan's money, 'Tan Mo's' money is not 'Mo's' money. Will Mo Tan give money to himself as 'Mo' while being 'Tan Mo'?
Haha.
In short, five minutes later, Mo Tan, who had purchased the sophisticated engineering artifact [Steam Pot 7.6 Upgraded Version], followed Noyce to a cliff not far away. Of course, except for Xiaolong Peak and the third Except for places like Qiwai Mountain, which are basically closed to the public, every outdoor building in Tianzhu Mountain There is a barrier around the mountain that is difficult to distinguish with the naked eye, so it is very difficult for someone to slip and fall. Even if someone is determined to commit suicide by jumping off a cliff, they can only break through the barrier at most. This kind of operation accomplishes half the purpose, that is, it is suicide. Jumping off a cliff is basically impossible anyway.
“I still know this, Mr. Noyce.”
Mo Tan smiled and shook his head, and asked Noyce who was enthusiastically educating himself to prevent him from slipping and falling into the barrier. Said: "So what's the reason why you came out to me?"
"Actually, it's nothing. I'm just passing on a message to others and taking a good look at the light in the revelation."
The blush on Noyce's face caused by drinking suddenly disappeared without a trace. He winked at Mo Tan playfully: "Let me introduce you again. I am Neushua Shao. In addition to my job as a commentator for the fifth-level field, I am also the person in charge of the Tianzhu Mountain Arena. Finally, there is a very good person. The troublesome person is the twelfth-ranked high-level observer here. Analyst Noyce."
"That's it." Mo Tan was not very surprised, but smiled at Noyce with a gentle expression: "Thank you again for helping Yaya, Noyce."
Noyce He clapped his hands vigorously: "Okay, fortunately you were not startled, nor did you change your name and call me a high-level observer."
Mo Tan smiled: "You said before that you should not use respectful words. ”
"That's what I said, but not many people can do it. Alas, that's why I don't want others to know about it~" Noyce scratched his head in distress, and then laughed heartily: " What about that? A few friends asked me to bring you a message."
Mo Tan: "Huh?"
"They are the chickens who just fought with you. Brat." Noyce shrugged and spread his hands and said, "They asked me to tell you, 'I'll fight you after you get to the fifth level' and 'The food made by that woman tastes terrible.'"
< br>“Huh?”
