Merlin suddenly remembered, isn't the Silver Moon Chamber of Commerce a chamber of commerce founded by the elves?
When everyone heard what Chris said, they all looked at the fat man in front of them and found that his ears were long and thin and pointed. Is this guy actually an elf?
"Are you an elf?"
Fate couldn't believe it. It was the first time he saw such a fat elf.
"Ahem, half-elf, half-elf. I have half human blood and half elf blood." Dal said, raising his hand.
Half-elf? Fate murmured, "I heard that the status of half-elves is very low among the elves, not to mention that you are a half-elf of human descent."
"Hey, how can you talk like that?" Chris elbowed Fate in dissatisfaction, signaling this guy not to speak so casually.
Dar waved his hand and said, "It's okay, it's okay. What this brother said is not wrong. Half-elves do have a low status in the elves. In fact, most of the people in the Silver Moon Chamber of Commerce are half-elves, and my father is the human representative responsible for connecting with the Arcane City area."
"Ahem, I've gone off topic. I came here because I heard about a delicacy called beggar's chicken and wanted to try it. I don't have any special hobbies, I just like to eat." Dal smiled embarrassedly.
Fate looked at the other person's figure and nodded in agreement, "I see."
Dahl was a good-tempered man. He didn't say much. He turned his head and looked at Merlin with some emotion and said, "Brother, this is the first time I've seen someone as handsome as you. Even among the elves, I've never seen anyone more handsome than you. Maybe only the elf prince I haven't seen can compete with you in appearance."
Everyone around was extremely shocked when they heard what Dal said. Of course, what shocked them was not Merlin's appearance, but the fact that the legendary elf prince was so handsome that he could compete with Merlin in appearance.
"Brother, these spices should be enough to eat a chicken, right?"
After Dahl finished speaking, Merlin nodded with a smile and said, "Of course, please wait a moment, I will make lotus leaf beggar's chicken for you right away. By the way, lotus leaf..."
A boy heard Merlin's words and ran over, all wet, holding a dozen fresh lotus leaves in his hands.
Everyone stepped back. The smell of lotus pond on this person was too strong. He must have been fished out of the lotus pond just now.
"Here, here, it's already been prepared."
Merlin really didn't expect that these students could be so crazy for a delicious meal. It was totally beyond his expectations.
"I'm going to prepare the spices for the lotus leaf beggar's chicken now. Please wait a moment. It will be ready soon."
Merlin naturally couldn't let people around him see the spices he used. These were his secret recipes for making money in the future, so how could he let others learn them easily?
The people around were basically classmates from the Alchemy Academy. They also understood the importance of the secret recipe and naturally would not suggest going in to take a look.
About two hours later, on the grass outside the senior dormitory, Merlin dug out a few steaming lumps of earth and placed them on the ground.
Looking up at the sky, Merlin estimated that it was already the second half of the night. He casually picked up a stone and knocked away the mud wrapped around the beggar's chicken in lotus leaves.
Almost instantly, a familiar and rich fragrance spread from inside, and Fate and others greedily breathed in the fragrance in the air.
"Yes, that's the taste! That's the taste!"
"This is so familiar, this is so familiar, this tastes so good!"
"Is this the taste of beggar's chicken in lotus leaf?" The first time Dal smelled this scent, he was instantly conquered by the aroma. His saliva came out of his mouth and flowed down his neck.
There were only seven chickens in total, and it was obviously not enough to share with the crowd around. Merlin pulled aside the lotus leaves and handed a whole golden chicken to Dal. This guy produced the most spices, so it was not too much to give him a whole chicken.
The people around looked at Dahl with envy but said nothing. They all understood that Dahl had taken so many spices and it would only take a few points to divide them. These noble students had some qualities and knew what was important and what was not.
In fact, the beggar's chicken made by Merlin is not as flavorful as the one served in class. After all, it tastes better after being marinated in advance. But for those who have been eating "pig food" and "leftovers", this improvised beggar's chicken in lotus leaves is also a top delicacy.
Merlin yawned. He was really tired today. He took a carriage to the tavern, met his parents, grilled skewers, made barbecue ingredients and marinades, and cleaned the house. It took him a long time to get back in the carriage, and he also had to make beggar's chicken for this group of people. He was already exhausted.
He didn't care how the group of people behind him divided it. He yawned and walked back to his dormitory. "You can divide it among yourselves. If it's not enough, I can't do anything. I'm a little tired today. I'm going to go back to sleep first."
After saying that, Merlin walked back to the dormitory. As for the others, they only had eyes for the Lotus Leaf Beggar Chicken. Merlin and nothing else were important to them now.
Of course, the girls still watched Merlin leave reluctantly. They originally wanted to eat chicken while watching Merlin.
After Merlin returned to his dormitory and closed his room, the tired look on his face instantly disappeared, replaced by incomparable excitement.
Merlin looked at the large amount of spices placed in the room. How many spices could be used to make lotus leaf beggar's chicken? There is no problem in making hundreds of beggar's chickens with the spices sent by my classmates, and some of the spices that are not used are even pure profit.
The half-elf named Dal was also rich, so a big bag of spices was given to him directly. People say that alchemists make money, but this is not making money at all, it is simply robbing money.
Wait, I’m not even an alchemist, I should be a chef.
Merlin thought so and lay down on his bed with a lot of spices. He didn't care whether the smell was pungent or not. In his eyes, they were all shiny gold coins. Even if he took these spices to sell directly, he could sell them for thousands of gold coins.
Of course, selling spices is the most unprofitable. Merlin has already thought of it. Since Beggar's Chicken is so popular, he can just sell Lotus Leaf Beggar's Chicken. As for where the chicken comes from, he will naturally go to the Beast Taming Academy to buy it wholesale.
Others might not know, but how could he not know? The Beast Taming Academy has no shortage of chickens, ducks, pigs, cows, sheep and the like. These are all subjects for freshmen, and they are also food for many monsters. Will it be okay if the quantity is less?
However, the farmed birds and animals are generally not easily sold to students outside the Beast Taming Academy, so he will have to think of a way when the time comes.
When Merlin thought about making a lot of money tomorrow, a happy smile appeared on his lips, and he fell asleep while thinking. There was no way he could do it because he was too tired and sleepy today. Besides, only if he got enough sleep would he have the energy to make more money, right?
