A farming master in Stardew Valley

Chapter 926 Baile Soup

Lyon, who was now alone again, sighed, but his mood improved a lot.

Although the old man was not polite in his words, his actions showed his support for Lyon, although he did not tell Lyon what he had heard.

But that doesn't mean his reminder is meaningless.

The fear of the unknown that you are prepared for and the fear of the unknown that you are suddenly attacked without knowing anything about are two different concepts.

"how do you feel?"

Gus, who also did not need to add new food to the table, came over with a towel wiping his sweat and handed a bottle of iced canned soda to Leon.

"Everyone's quite enthusiastic. It looks like the barbecue business is doing well. Boss Gus has made a fortune recently."

Leon naturally knew what Gut meant. He took the soda, opened it, gulped down two mouthfuls, and joked to Gut.

"I'm starting to regret adding this category to my bar menu. It's not that barbecue is bad, it's just that it's added too much work for me and it's a bit overwhelming."

Gus patted his belly as he spoke. It was indeed a lot smaller than before. It seemed that he had been very busy recently.

"Add someone to the kitchen. This doesn't require any technical skills. It all depends on the seasoning." Lyon suggested.

"I have this plan, but there are not many young people in the town who are willing to be chefs." Gus complained.

"The salary isn't high?" Lyon was a little confused when he heard this. After all, there were young people in Pelican Town. Although most of them had jobs, the intensity of their work was not much different from working in the kitchen, not to mention that Gus was a much friendlier boss than others.

"It shouldn't be too low, but I also plan to train a successor. After all, I can't run the bar forever, so I'm quite picky when it comes to hiring people." When Gus said this, he couldn't help but look at Ang and sighed.

"Actually, you're the most satisfactory candidate for me, but it's a pity that you have a farm to run."

"Take your time, don't rush. You're still very strong and can fight for at least another twenty years." Leon hurriedly encouraged Gus.

"Yeah, no rush."

Gus nodded, then patted Leon on the shoulder: “Let’s go, Lewis just informed me that the Baile soup is ready, we have to go to the banquet.”

"Then let's go."

Leon immediately extinguished the charcoal stove, washed his hands, and headed towards the center of the beach with Guts.

At this moment, the wooden vat where the Baile soup was being cooked was already crowded with people. Mani was still standing on the stool, stirring the soup in the pot with a large spoon, while Lewis and Governor Andrew stood in front of the wooden vat, facing everyone.

Lewis spoke after seeing Leon and Gus appear in front of the crowd.

"It's the annual Hawaiian Luau again. I'm so happy to gather with you all once again to commemorate and celebrate the festival that has been passed down since the founding of Pelican Town by our ancestors.

The luau potluck represents the spirit of sharing and helping each other, a spirit that has kept Pelican Town together. I believe everyone has fulfilled this tradition by adding their own ingredients to the potluck. So now we can enjoy this soup that has been brought together by everyone's kindness."

After finishing his opening remarks, Lewis took a small step back, highlighting the presence of Governor Andrew. "Now, please welcome our most beloved Governor as our most important guest representative of Pelican Town to experience the first bowl of Baile Soup this year."

"Clap clap clap!"

Everyone at the scene applauded out of respect to show their support for the governor.

Andrew also clapped happily, and only spoke after the applause died down.

"The Pelican Town Luau is an event I never miss, and the Potluck Soup, which varies in flavor every year but remains consistently delicious, is my favorite. I've been looking forward to this soup all year, and now I can finally get it. First of all, thank you all for your hard work and dedication in creating this unique soup."

As soon as Andrew finished speaking, Lewis came over with a wooden soup bowl filled with a large bowl of turmeric Baile soup.

Andrew took it immediately, held the soup bowl in front of his mouth with both hands and blew a few breaths to lower the temperature of the freshly cooked Baile soup, then picked up the bowl and put the soup into his mouth.

As the Baile soup entered his mouth, Governor Andrew, whose cheeks looked plump, was instantly fascinated by his eyes, and his brows twitched uncontrollably.

"Oh... I've never tasted such delicious soup! As expected, this time's Baile soup didn't disappoint me again. Not only did I experience the indescribable deliciousness, but I also felt everyone's kindness and enthusiasm!"

The straightforward praise made everyone in Pelican Town smile, and a feeling of pride permeated everyone's chest.

Lewis also came over with another bowl of soup at this moment. He took a big sip in front of everyone, and then showed a satisfied expression that was almost the same as the governor's, and shouted loudly: "It is indeed as perfect as the governor said. I can even say that this Baile soup is the most delicious I have ever tasted in all these years.

Everyone is now free to savor this rare delicacy, which you all deserve. But please don't rush to grab it, and please line up in order."

Following Lewis's words, everyone cheered and began to line up in front of the wooden vat.

Marnie happily took a new bowl from the pile of similar wooden bowls on the side and gave each person in the queue in Pelican Town a big spoonful of potluck soup.

The people of Pelican Town who received the Baile Soup also consciously walked to the side and sipped the thick soup that was made from the best ingredients that all the people of Pelican Town could come up with, and experienced the unique flavor that was indescribable.

Lyon is one of them.

Leon was extremely curious about Baile Soup, a strange soup that could be made with anything and involved ancient magic.

Only after he actually tasted the Baile soup did Leon understand why the governor and Lewis had that expression.

The soup is very soft when you put it in your mouth, and the taste you feel on your tongue is very strong. You don’t need to savor it carefully, you can subconsciously taste many flavors. The sour, sweet, spicy, salty, fresh and fragrant flavors are constantly exchanging around the tongue coating, but it does not appear messy or abrupt.

To sum up the taste, it is indeed delicious. As the soup goes down your throat, a warm current begins to spread throughout your body along your esophagus. Even in this hot summer season with the sun shining brightly, this warmth is so obvious and comfortable.

This feeling is like the embrace of family, full of security and comfort, and there is a kind and natural sense of relaxation.
