"Have you heard? Someone is digging up that demon plant again on the south side of the gate."
"Didn't anyone remind them that it was poisonous?"
"I've reminded you. Maybe he thinks he's immune to all poisons and is blessed with a special gift! Or maybe he blames us for meddling in his affairs."
"Tsk tsk tsk, so many people die every year, why do so many people keep coming?"
"You wouldn't know, but when I passed by, they had already dug up half of the forest."
"Hey, they're afraid we'll snatch it from them!"
"Haha..." The news that there were two newcomers who 'didn't listen' and wanted to eat the demon taro quickly spread among the hunting team returning to the city.
Xiao Yu and Zhou Yanzhi dug up all the ripe konjac with an air of "I'm not embarrassed, it's others who are embarrassed." Then, they walked calmly in the procession back to the city. After entering the city, the two of them even took out a table and set up a roadside stall.
What they are selling is the roasted phoenix that we made last night.
Since this thing can't be sold raw, and the two don't want to work in vain, they can only sell it cooked.
The golden-red, fragrant roast goose, with the help of a slight flame, not only smells delicious for miles, but it also tests the concentration of passersby.
The sight of the vendors at the table munching on meat was incredibly impactful. A few hunters, feeling they had a bit of extra cash, couldn't resist the temptation and sampled the meat from the large platter beside the table.
"Fuck, how did you bake this?"
"Brother, let's have one! This is so delicious."
"Yeah, yeah, everyone knows that roe dew always smells fishy no matter how you cook it. But this one isn't fishy at all, and it's even slightly sweet! Yeah, I think it has fewer impurities."
"Fellow Daoist, how much is this?" Those who have tasted it were also tempted by the smell of meat and their mouths were watering.
Seeing that they were interested, Zhou Yanzhi stood up and said, "Five spirit stones for one, we can accept pre-orders and processing."
"Five spirit stones!"
"One?" the hunter exclaimed, his face a look of 'what are you talking in your sleep?'
☆
Zhou Yanzhi smiled: "Fellow Daoists, you can taste more and feel it carefully, and you will know whether this thing of mine is worth the money. If this wasn't the Windy Wasteland, and if today wasn't my husband and I's first time doing business, if we put this spiritual food of this quality in a place like Huwei City, Hutou City, or Huxin City, we could sell it for hundreds of spiritual stones, not to mention fifty."
Those who can become the captain of a hunting team are all smart. Upon hearing this, he immediately took the meat from the plate for tasting. After a few pieces, he finally understood what the other party meant.
"Okay, I'll take all five of these..."
"No, Lao Guan." Before the former could finish his words, someone held his shoulders. "Good stuff, whoever sees it gets it!"
The hunting captain turned around and saw the captain of the hunting team he knew standing behind him. "Nine-tailed Fox, why are you everywhere?"
The man ignored the former and directly gave the spirit stone: "Daoyou, I am sincere. Here are ten pieces of spirit food. Pack two for me."
Zhou Yanzhi signaled Xiao Yu to take action.
Xiao Yu immediately used the two small baskets woven from green bamboo that he had prepared long ago and put the "goose" in them. The green bamboo woven with the golden and red roasted "goose" was a very impressive sight.
Soon, other hungry people who had returned from hunting came to try the food.
☆
"Give me one..." The person who was speaking gave the money and started to take the 'goose' while speaking. His movements were done in one go. He even took and packed the packaging himself. His dexterity was so great that Old Guan, who was still in a daze, was amazed.
The people in Lao Guan's team saw that out of the five pseudo-phoenixes, only two were left, while there were still people tasting the food on the tasting plate. Without waiting for the captain to pay, one person started to pack the food and another took out the spirit stones.
"Hey, hey, hey, fellow Daoist, this is not fair. There aren't many to begin with, how could you take it all!"
"That's right, I can still afford five spirit stones for this delicious roasted phoenix with almost no impurities."
"Yes, yes, whoever sees it gets it."
When the other members of Lao Guan's team saw this, they immediately surrounded the two people holding the imitation phoenix in the middle, as if they were afraid that their phoenix would be snatched away.
Zhou Yanzhi smiled gently and said, "I'm sorry, fellow Taoists. Due to the complexity of the preparation and the exquisite ingredients, we are new here, so we only made five. Please try them first. If you like them, we will make a few more to sell in a few days."
"How many days?"
“How many days does it take to do it once?”
"Are you trying to trick us on purpose?"
Zhou Yanzhi just smiled and said nothing, only signaling Xiao Yu with his eyes.
☆
Xiao Yu immediately took out half a piece from the space storage bag, cut it with a knife, and it was still hot. It was obvious that it was a roasted phoenix that was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.
"I want this half." A person who had tried several pieces in a row spoke up immediately.
Xiao Yu ignored him and chopped it into big pieces with a knife for everyone to taste.
Zhou Yanzhi smiled and said, "It's only half a piece. I think there are probably quite a few Taoist friends who want to buy it. I hope you will forgive me and let me try it today."
"Fellow Taoist, you know how to do business!" Someone exclaimed and went to take the meat.
The other people who were originally watching, seeing so many people, also reached out to take some. After eating, many of them were dumbfounded.
"What's going on?"
"It's so delicious, so fragrant! Is this really a simian? I suddenly realized that all the simian I've been eating for decades wasted!"
"Is it so exaggerated?" Some people didn't believe it, but when they wanted to try it, they found that there were many shameless people squeezed in the front, who were eating and taking things at the same time, and would not let go or move even when being scolded.
