Star Chef

"Ai Qi is a good comrade." Xia Xun sighed after sending Ai Qi away. If he hadn't taken care of him everywhere, he would not have solved his livelihood problem so quickly when he just arrived.

"Go online!" Xia Xun cheered after finishing the kitchen, and couldn't wait to go back to the room.

Although there is Aiqi who knows everything, but in order not to arouse the other party's suspicion, Xia Xun can only choose to find answers to many common-sense questions on the Internet, and Yue Ban's civilization is higher than that of the Andre Empire. Even if he wanted to help Xia Xun integrate into this world, he could do nothing.

Xia Xun turned on the communicator and pulled out the Internet interface. Although the technology in this world is much higher than that of the earth, it has not yet reached the level of holography.Xia Xun thought it was nothing, but Yue Ban was very dissatisfied with it, and strongly urged Xia Xun to leave Luo Ke and go to Andre's capital.

The mastermind of the Andre Empire is called Andre, with the same name as the founding emperor of the empire. Because it is a low-level civilization, it cannot maintain the operation of the holographic network of the entire empire. Therefore, except for the capital star and some important planets, other planets are still In a relatively primitive state of the network.

Xia Xun prefers this mode. The main page is the national emblem of the Andre Empire. After clicking on it, you will see the introduction of each planet under its rule. Xia Xun groped for a while before finding Star Rocco.

There are a lot of things on the Internet. After finding Luo Kexing, Xia Xun didn't spend much effort to find the place where the announcement was posted.Rockstar will arrange manpower to patrol during the safe period every day. Because there is no over-exploitation, most of the creatures on Rockstar still maintain their most primitive appearance, which also causes the species on this planet to retain more wildness than others. .

According to the regulations, ordinary tourists are not allowed to visit outside the safe zone, but not all of them. Occasionally, some tourists or adventurers want to go to the periphery. At this time, they will post notices on the bulletin board, recruiting locals as bodyguards or wizard.Xia Xun took a quick look around and found that it would cost at least [-] star alliance coins to hire the lowest-level hunting team, which already exceeded all his assets.

The safety zone is patrolled every day, and Xia Xun is not worried. After choosing the nearest safety zone, he searched the Internet for information about male subadults. He didn't sleep peacefully until he confirmed that rhubarb lethargy was a common phenomenon.

The next morning, Xia Xun started to prepare breakfast. He still had some potato and kudzu roots left over from yesterday. He heated it and poured some broth on it. As for the rhubarb, Xia Xun grilled some sliced ​​meat for him.

Just before going out, Da Huang followed Xia Xun step by step.Xia Xun squatted down, hugged Da Huang's head and said, "I'll be back at noon at the latest." Da Huang tilted his head, as if he didn't understand the meaning of Xia Xun's words.

"When you don't feel sleepy anymore, I'll take you out." According to the Internet, Rhubarb is now in the most critical period, eating a lot and drowsiness are all to accumulate more strength.

It was only then that Da Huang realized that Xia Xun really didn't intend to take him with him, and he started pawing the ground with his forelegs, making an uneasy low growl from his mouth.Seeing that he was so cruel, Xia Xun got up and was about to leave, but was pulled back just as he took a step. Xia Xun turned around and saw Da Huang pulling his clothes hem.

Yue Ban looked at the sky, and said coolly: "You should take him with you, or you don't have to go out." Xia Xun was waiting for this sentence, and immediately let Da Huang let go of his mouth, and rubbed his head soothingly , said softly: "If you are sleepy, tell me and we will come back."

He was answered by a lion's roar from Rhubarb.

The city where the Aiqi family is located is called Luo Ke City, which is the birthplace of Luo Ke star civilization, so although it is not the most prosperous city on the planet, it has a detached status.

There are four gates in Rocco City. Outside the gate is the safe area, and further away is the hunting area. There are cordons and patrols between the safe area and the hunting area, so there is no need to worry about wild animals breaking in by mistake.

Xia Xun wanted to go to the supermarket before leaving the city, so he walked through the east gate.Xia Xun went a little earlier today than yesterday, and there were obviously more ingredients in the supermarket than yesterday.Jiaye still had an impression of Xia Xun, but he happened to have a guest who needed to be greeted, so he just went up to greet him briefly and let Xia Xun take a look first.

Xia Xun looked around and picked out a few. The information on these ingredients is stored in the database for half a year, and some of them can even replace spices, but the price is not cheap.

"Jiaye, don't you have any special ingredients here?" Xia Xun was picking out the good things and was about to pay the bill when he heard the conversation between Kaye and the customer.

"Neo, my place is already the most complete supermarket in Rocco City." Kasyapa seemed helpless.Neo has opened a restaurant on the commercial street since his grandfather. Their family is gluttonous, with an extraordinary obsession with ingredients, and they are committed to developing more delicacies.It's a pity that Neo didn't have much talent, and the food he developed was either hard to swallow or high in toxins.

Unfortunately, a similar restaurant opened next to his family's restaurant some time ago, and the low price quickly attracted a large number of customers, which also caused the business of Neo's family to plummet.

"It seems that I can only try my luck with the hunting team." Neo sighed. He also has a son who is studying in Capital Star, and the family's expenses depend on restaurants. If the loss of customers continues like this, he will not even My son will not be able to pay his tuition fees for the next semester.

Kasyapa sighed, the newly opened restaurant was rich and powerful, and spent a lot of Star Alliance coins to let the hunting team sneak into the depths of the hunting area to find new ingredients, and the price of the food was much lower than that of the surrounding restaurants, everyone knew This is vicious competition, but there is nothing to do.

"Uncle Kasyapa, what kind of restaurant did that guy open just now?" Kassapa didn't think too much when he heard Xia Xun's question, and said truthfully: "Barbecue restaurant." Seemingly worried that Xia Xun didn't know what barbecue is, Kasyapa continued to explain Said: "Barbecue is a way of eating invented by humans on the ancient earth. All kinds of meat are skewered together, then roasted on the fire, and finally sprinkled with salt. This dish tastes good, but it is a test of heat. Neo’s restaurant has been open for decades, and the reviews have always been good.”

Xia Xun suddenly realized, isn’t this just the kebab on earth? Back then, he liked to buy dozens of mutton skewers and a few bottles of cold beer on summer evenings and have a big meal at the night stalls. Sun Hao ruthlessly banned his hobby.

"A total of [-] star alliance coins." Jiaye packed the fruits Xia Xun bought, this time Xia Xun only bought a dozen fruits with different flavors.Kassapa has been running a supermarket for so many years, and he still knows a little about cooking, but he really can't see what Xia Xun is going to do.However, he was full of affection for this poor child, and would give Xia Xun some change every time. Although Kasyapa didn't say these little favors, Xia Xun remembered them all in his heart.

Xia Xun is not a person who is good at communicating with others, and sometimes he is often in a passive state towards other people's kindness, but this does not mean that he is an ungrateful person, whether it is Ai Qi or Kasyapa's kindness, he always remembers it in his heart Give back when needed.

"Thank you." Putting away the fruit that Kasyapa handed over, Xia Xun thought that he needed to go to the commercial street tomorrow.

Right now is the peak tourist season for Planet Rocco, and alien tourists with their families can be seen everywhere, but most of them still choose to play in the city.There were no guards at the gate of the city, but there were surveillance cameras everywhere. The combination of Xia Xun and Da Huang successfully attracted everyone's attention, and even a few older Luo Ke stars persuaded them not to leave the city.

Xia Xun knew that they were not malicious, so he thanked them one by one, but his words were still full of persistence.Moore was one of the people who persuaded him. Moore's family was originally well-off, but since the birth of the frail and sickly little female, it has gradually become difficult. In order to make a living, his partner joined the hunting team. His partner was in the wild a few days ago Suffering a little injury, he thought of taking this opportunity to come out and collect some ingredients such as potato and kudzu roots to reduce the burden on the family.

"You can follow us later." Even the safe zone is not completely safe. Moore came with his friends, so he had some support.Besides, as soon as he saw Xia Xun, he thought of the little female at home who sweetly called him Papa, and couldn't help wanting to take care of him more. Most of Moore's friends already had children at home, and they had no objection to Moore's decision .

It was Xia Xun's first visit to the safe zone, and someone accompanied him naturally.Moore and the others come here often and are familiar with this area, so they headed further east as soon as they left the city gate.

"These are kudzu roots." Moore explained to Xia Xun while taking out a handy tool. These kudzu roots are full of vitality. As long as a small root is left, a large piece will grow in the next year. Although it is not nutritious, it will relieve hunger .

Potato and kudzu roots are the staple food for Xia Xun now, and naturally there are not too many staple foods, but it is too waste of time to come and dig every day.Xia Xun walked to the vicinity of Moore, and imitated his appearance while digging the kudzu roots and asked, "Can these kudzu roots be grown by myself?"

"Plant?" Moore got up curiously, as if he had heard some incredible words: "This kind of kudzu root is everywhere, if you want to eat it, you can dig some here. And kudzu root is not suitable for you, when you are growing your body , It’s better to eat more meat.”

Xia Xun didn't care if he didn't get the answer he wanted. He pinched some soil near the kudzu root and crushed it for Yue Ban to study, while he continued digging with Moore and the others.After Xia Xun had dug enough rations for the past few days, he stopped and started to wander around. When he saw any novel plants, he crushed them in his hands and provided samples for Yue Ban's analysis.

During the period, I found a few slightly salty and bitter plants, but none of them could replace the condiments on the earth.

"I miss soy sauce, vinegar, and green onions! Ginger! Garlic!" Xia Xun yelled inwardly while squatting on the ground digging the soil. Yue Ban only thought he was hallucinating, and when he calmed down, he asked him to collect some of the things he found. Substitutes go back and try the effect.

When Moore and the others saw Xia Xun's actions, they only thought he was curious, and told him not to stay away from the area he was in and stop paying attention. Instead, they continued digging potatoes and kudzu root wholeheartedly. No one noticed that Xia Xun was going further and further away. .
