Chapter 345

"This is a steamer. Water is boiled at the bottom, and the steamer on top is responsible for conducting the steam and holding the food. It's a bit similar to an oven, but one uses water and the other uses fire."

Yu Sui pointed at the steamer and spoke concisely to Old Jack.

"Not bad." Old Jack looked at Yu Sui with appreciation, then looked at the steamer thoughtfully, "You said it's similar to an oven, so if we steam bread in it..."

Old Jack's interest was piqued all of a sudden, and his hands were itching to move. He couldn't help but imagine how the snacks he knew how to make would taste like if they were steamed.

Recipes flashed through his mind. He knew hundreds of dishes and snacks, and there were still some that he was still developing but couldn't find ideas for. Now, this new method of steaming gave him countless more inspirations.

There are many steamed dim sum, and almost all Chinese dim sum are steamed. But the dim sum here is not suitable. For example, bread, after being steamed, becomes steamed buns, which are not as delicious as steamed buns.

He could understand the desire of a top chef like Old Jack to innovate dishes. Since he had taught him, he would let Old Jack do it. If he could make something that tasted good, it would be a benefit to the world.

This time, the Xilen caravan came to the Fantasy Continent ahead of schedule. Originally, it was because Loft wanted to obtain good wine to increase the reputation of the caravan and his family, so he went to great lengths to come here. For the sake of good wine, he was willing to stay for a few more days.

It’s different now. Even if Loft wants to leave, Old Jack won’t let him. He and Yu Sui cook a few dishes for each other every day and share them. Lanlos, Wolf, and his little apprentice Zhaxi also have their appetites greatly satisfied.

Wolf has a rough appearance and a heroic character, but surprisingly prefers light taste. He loves all kinds of steamed dishes made by Yu Sui, which is in stark contrast to his love of drinking strong liquor.

Old Jack was so immersed in the completely different way of cooking that he couldn't help himself. Seeing how enthusiastic he was, Yu Sui simply gave him the huge steamer.

In return, every day when Yu Sui returned to the tribe, Old Jack would pack up various snacks made by him and Tashi for him to take back, and the other orcs also benefited from it.

No matter what profession one is in, when one reaches a certain level, one will have his own pride. Old Jack is the same, but it is different these days. As soon as the new year comes, Old Jack's mood becomes cheerful, and his white beard is curled up every day.

During this period, Yu Sui also asked about Bangbo's purple gold ore. Unfortunately, the Tu tribe did not have it. Even for the dwarves who collected many rare ores, purple gold ore was extremely precious to them. As long as they had a little bit and added it to weapons or props, the final product level would be greatly improved.

But Bombur remembered that Buona of the Gray Iron Tribe seemed to have a piece of it, so he added a little bit of it to the magic wand he brought to Shuyu. He was even jealous of Shuyu.

As for Shuyu, no one noticed his sudden disappearance a few days ago. After all, he was busy practicing every day in the later period, and he was like a dragon that was hard to find. But after a long time, everyone finally noticed that he was missing.

Heiyan found an excuse for Yu Sui and his tribesmen. He did not reveal Shuyu's true identity, but only said that Shuyu had recovered his magic power and went out to travel again.

Everyone has seen Shuyu's level of magic. Great magicians all have some incomprehensible quirks, but just liking to travel around is nothing.

Ah Shan, unaware of the truth, secretly prayed that Lanluos would also enjoy traveling...

Since the purple gold ore is so precious, Yu Sui did not tell Wolf the truth. He did not trust him. Moreover, Wolf was such a powerful knight. If he posed a threat to the Gray Iron Tribe, he would be held responsible.

Bombur said that next time he goes to the Gray Iron Tribe, he can ask Buona if she can give some to humans. The purple gold ore has very strong ductility, and adding a little bit to the armor is enough.

But it's best not to get your hopes up too much.

Yu Sui only told Wolf that he could ask the dwarves to help find it. Even so, Wolf was very grateful, as he had not held high expectations in the first place.

Yu Sui's milk candy and milk tofu are not only loved by the orcs of the Heitu tribe. Loft also treasures the milk candies sent to the Xilen caravan very much. He is unwilling to give them to anyone else and plans to buy more with Yu Sui to take back.

Without additives, toffee cannot be preserved for long. As long as it is a dairy product, it will spoil easily. Moreover, the weather is getting hotter day by day, and summer is coming soon. Without rice paper, toffee will easily melt into a lump. This thing can only be made and eaten immediately.

"Oh, what a pity! I guarantee that if the milk candy were put on sale in the imperial capital, it would be snapped up like crazy." Lovett sighed, reluctant to look at the empty silver jar.

He waved his hand to summon a servant, who brought a box and enthusiastically placed it in front of Yu Sui, "Please accept it."

"What is this?" Yu Sui asked in confusion.

Loft diligently opened the lid of the wooden box and saw that it was filled with small silver jars. It turned out to be a whole wooden box of white sugar.

Due to low productivity, the price of sugar is still very expensive, and white sugar is the most expensive. The nobles are keen to use sweets to show off their financial strength.

The wooden box wasn't big, but the amount of sugar was already quite valuable. Yu Sui was surprised and said, "I can't accept this. This much sugar must be very expensive."

Lovett smiled and rubbed his hands. "Don't worry, I just want to ask you to make some more candies. Even if they can't be kept for too long, I can eat them on the road. There's an ice magician in my caravan who can help me freeze them. To be honest, I have a daughter..."

I see, I didn't realize he was such a good father. Yu Sui teased, "So you have a daughter, no problem, I can help."

"A daughter?" Loft repeated, clapping his hands and laughing. "Yes, yes, it is a daughter."

He reached into the box and gestured, "These are your rewards. Please don't refuse."

There were twenty cans of sugar in the small box, half of which was Yu Sui's reward.

Half of the labor cost, even if the raw material milk is added, Loft can be said to be very sincere.

Yu Sui was no longer polite. Although milk candy was simple, the milk powder in it was not easy to make. It took a long time to drain the moisture every day. The only benefit was that it made the use of magic more proficient.

It was just right to take these candies back to make milk candies for the tribesmen. The milk candies made that day were eaten up on the same day. The adults only tasted some of them, and the rest went into the mouths of the cubs.

But there were too many people and too little meat, and the cubs were very greedy when they ate milk candy for the first time. To them, milk candy was more attractive than fruit candy.

He walked out of the tent with the box. He went to the camp of the Xiren caravan more often now, and later he came by himself. In the orcs' territory, he also had magic to rely on, so he didn't have to worry about Ashan's weird behavior, and he didn't have to trouble other people.
