Chapter 1166: Reproduction of Food
"Wake up and use your brain when doing things next time."
Zhang Tuohai's voice came from the boat, and then the White Bird continued to sail towards the distance without stopping for a moment.
"Sister, are you okay ?" the boy swam to the girl and asked.
"It's okay. I'm just wondering if everything we did before was wrong." The girl shook her head, her eyes fixed on the increasingly distant figure of the White Bird.
"Without any investigation, and only based on what we see and our own likes and dislikes, what is the essential difference between us and those pirates?" the girl murmured.
"Sister, you won't be deceived by him, right?" The boy said, shaking the girl's shoulders.
"No, I'm really reflecting on whether everything we did was really right. For example, whether those two galleys were really pirates or innocent people. I want to go back and take a look." The girl said, swimming onto the light sailboat, changing course, and heading towards the area where the two galleys were on fire.
On the White Bird, Zhang Tuohai yawned and returned to the captain's room and fell into a deep sleep.
Linda, who was hiding nearby, saw everything.
"What we see may not be true. Good intentions can also lead to bad things. Is the world so complicated?" Linda hid in the corner and fell into deep thought.
If she hadn't met the captain, she felt that her best outcome would probably be like those two people, becoming a bounty hunter. However, she only made judgments based on her own preferences and subjective assumptions, and might eventually become an accomplice of the evildoer without realizing it.
"The world is really too complicated. Fortunately, I met Captain." Linda thought.
Zhang Tuohai didn’t know that his momentary bad taste had affected several people. He had a good sleep and then came to the restaurant.
The pirates had almost recovered. They were all sitting at the long table eating with wooden bowls. When they saw Zhang Tuohai coming in, they stood up quickly and said, "Captain!"
"Please sit down, what do we want to eat today?" Zhang Tuohai asked.
"Chicken livers braised in red wine," said Elizabeth Yin. "It wasn't until I read Mr. McKenzie's notes that I realized that offal could be so delicious."
"Don't you usually eat offal?" Zhang Tuohai asked.
"The nobles don't eat it, but servants and the like do. Meat is very precious to them, so they are not that picky. They eat whatever they have. However, the cooking method is not that particular. They just wash it and stew it with vegetables. The taste is not that good."
Yin Lisa Bai said.
"If the taste is bad, it means the processing method is wrong. If you want the internal organs to taste good, you have to pickle them. Later I will teach you how to stew the gizzards, chicken intestines, chicken livers, chicken necks, and chicken feet. These things taste better than chicken. Also, let me see if the seasonings are complete. If they are, I will teach you how to stew them and make curry."
As Zhang Tuohai spoke, he took a bite of the chicken liver braised in red wine. How should I put it? It was not as delicate as goose liver and was a bit dry, but the taste was okay and edible.
It was pretty good that Yin Lishabai, who was good at baking, was able to achieve this level for the first time.
"Really? The captain knows these things?" Yin Lisabai's eyes sparkled. She was very obsessed with various recipes and became excited when she heard this.
"It's not that difficult. If it weren't for that damn game, I would still be running my family's tofu shop and braised food shop."
Zhang Tuohai's face was full of memories. If he had not been selected , he would probably still be running his family's store. Although it was very busy, it was very fulfilling.
It’s not like now, where your head is tied to your belt every day and you can lose your life if you are not careful.
"Tofu shop? What is that? And what is braised food?" Yin Lisha was completely confused.
"Tofu, I tell you, this is a good thing, it's versatile and can satisfy your cravings. As the old saying goes, if you roll tofu three times, even a god can't stand still. I'll go buy some things when we get to the shore, and then I'll try to make a tofu-making machine."
Zhang Tuohai said.
Zhang Tuohai suddenly felt that inventing tofu seemed like a good idea.
Not only does it satisfy your own appetite, but it can also bring a little change to the world.
There are also various braised dishes, such as chicken necks, chicken feet, chicken racks, etc., all arranged for Yin Lishabai to try to make them all. Maybe she can even gain some attribute expertise or something.
Thinking of this, Zhang Tuohai couldn't sit still anymore. He quickly finished his meal, returned to the slipway, controlled the steering wheel, and continued to sail forward.
Along the way, Zhang Tuohai saw many abandoned villages on the shore. These villages had all been burned down by fire, and the ground was full of ruins.
"Are there so many pirates here? Why are there traces of plunder everywhere?"
Zhang Tuohai increased the vigilance and prepared the Unsullied for battle.
The boat continued to move forward for several hours, and a small town appeared in front of Zhang Tuohai.
Behind this city are vast fields, and it is obvious at first glance that this is a huge agricultural city.
Zhang Tuohai looked at the nautical chart, but there was no sign of this city on it.
"The sea chart provided by this system is too simple. The city is not even marked?"
Zhang Tuohai adjusted the course of the White Bird and moved towards the city's dock.
Because they needed to purchase some materials this time and needed manpower to carry them, Zhang Tuohai brought 20 Unsullied people off the ship.
A group of people walked in the harbor in a mighty manner. After asking around, Zhang Tuohai found the stonemason shop.
Zhang Tuohai bought a grinding wheel and asked a carpenter to order some raw materials, preparing to make a handmade tofu-making machine himself.
After asking the Unsullied to move these things back, Zhang Tuohai went to the market to buy soybeans.
People in this world are not very enthusiastic about soybeans. It has no taste when stewed, and eating too much can cause bloating. If people have the means, they will not use it as a staple food. It is usually used to feed livestock.
When the seller saw that Zhang Tuohai bought so many soybeans, he thought Zhang Tuohai was a big farmer and actively pushed other ingredients to Zhang Tuohai.
Inspired by the stall owner, Zhang Tuohai's eyes lit up. Yes, his boat was not small, so he could definitely raise some livestock.
I can't raise too many, but it's enough to raise one or two dairy cows, one or two dairy sheep, and a few hens that lay eggs.
After a stroll around the market, Zhang Tuohai bought two dairy cows, two dairy sheep, 10 hens, and a milk-producing donkey.
Yin Lisabeth looked at the animals being led on board with a curious look on her face: "I can understand the cows and sheep, but what does it mean about donkeys? Can we drink donkey milk?"
"Why can't we eat it? Not only is donkey milk edible, it's also very expensive. Cheese made from donkey milk has a unique flavor. If you don't like it, you can make donkey meat BBQ. It definitely won't be wasted."
Zhang Tuohai said.
