Chapter 54 Mini Luhua Village Banquet
In winter, the combination of beach trunks and shirts could no longer withstand the cold wave anymore. After waking up one night feeling freezing, Zhou Yu finally rembered to take out so autumn clothes. However, after opening the wardrobe where the autumn and winter clothes were kept, he was greeted with a strong moldy sll, that almost made him throw up. Taking out a piece of clothes and unfolding it to have a close look. It was covered with so strange mold, and there were many marks, which were clearly left by mice.
Checking all of the clothes one by one, none of them had escaped. The spring in the village was humid. Probably he hadn’t paid too much attention to the wardrobe for a long ti, the clothes inside were already dampened by the weather. Coupled with the big hole, that was made by rats, on the back of the wardrobe, the clothes had already been visited by different of ‘tourists’.
No matter how slow of a person Zhou Yu was, he also realized that those clothes couldn’t be used anymore. So he burned all of them in the yard. Fortunately, he had earned so money. He just needed to buy so new one. He also needed to get a stronger wardrobe as well. Anyway, he couldn’t share his wardrobe with rats and cockroaches.
Zhou Yu never checked clothes carefully or tried them on in shops. He often just quickly glanced through the section that he needed to go to and got the clothes that he needed as quickly as he could. The shop owner knew Zhou Yu. After all, Luhua Village was just nearby. The “robbery” of the supermarket that made by a group of children so ti ago, was still talked about by the people in the small high street. Such a generous custor was not common in this area. Surprisingly, this rich young man didn’t want to go to the city to buy so famous brands. Instead, he wanted to buy cheap goods at his shop.
Zhou Yu liked to do things in one go. He didn’t want to go around the high street comparing the prices of the things he needed to buy in each shop. He just wanted to get three sets of clothes, which were enough to allow him to change once in a while. Plus a new cotton quilt, he ended up having quite a big box of stuff. Only until he packed all the things together did he realized that he would have trouble taking them ho.
Having a great custor like Zhou Yu, the shop owner couldn’t stop smiling. Seeing Zhou Yu’s concerned expression, the shop owner knew what he was thinking, so he said, “Boss Zhou, thank you for your business. Xiao Hong, co and help Boss Zhou to take his clothes back.”
Accidentally, Otaku Zhou Yu beca Boss Zhou Yu.
After solving the problem of clothes, the freezing feeling finally disappeared and he could continue to live at ho like an Otaku. After the season was changed, the scenery that was seen by the eyes of the ACG world also changed. Before, the world was covered with brown leaves in autumn. But now it was cold and bleak. All it left was so snow to cover the whole village in white. But in the eyes of reality, the scenery hadn’t changed much. It was just less greenery.
In mini Luhua Village, the outfits of every villager were also changed. Only the old Dragon King remained the sa. His Black Dragon Robe remained unchanged throughout the year. Zhou Yu was curious about how he got through the sumr. Was there sothing special inside its clothes, or were dragons as cold-blooded as snakes?
Because of the cold weather, the villagers of the ACG world rarely went out. They usually gathered in Mini Luhua village and chat with each other. As there were no entertainnt facilities, the village seed quite deserted. However, Zhou Yu’s money was tight at the mont. He didn’t even have enough Coins to construct so useful buildings, let alone entertainnt facilities.
Since it was still at the beginner’s stage, they had to endure it. They needed to play so cards or chess to entertain themselves. In terms of high-class leisure activities, it would only be available in the future.
After washing his face, Zhou Yu took so ti to look at the small vegetable field. Vegetables seed to grow slowly in winter, but they looked very healthy. The fastest-growing ones were bean sprouts and leek, which could be harvested today.
Uncle Guan Er ca out of the hut while carrying a machete, that was relatively huge compared to his body. It now looked like the legendary warrior Guan Yu even more.
The mature bean sprouts were about the sa height of uncle Guan Er. After taking a deep breath, uncle Guan Er suddenly lifted the machete and waved it. The bean sprouts were then cut off from their roots.
Uncle Guan Er’s machete skill was truly amazing.
All the leek were harvested in less than a mont. Uncle Guan Er then skillfully tied them up and carried them back to the yard of the farr’s hut. Each bundle was counted as one unit. After carefully calculating harvest, the yield of the bean sprout seed was 20 units, while leek was slightly lower, which was 15 units.
The number seed quite large. However, in the eyes of reality, it was just enough for one plate each. Of course, it would be the big plate that everyone used in villages, not the small plate that was used in the city. To Zhou Yu, those two dishes could last about three days.
Unless it could be produced in large quantities. Otherwise, it would not be easy to live off two farmlands. However, at present, mass production was almost impossible. There were too many things that needed Moe Coins. He still had to make animated movies and gas. Alas, he was still very poor.
Now that he had vegetables, the first thing he needed to make, was alcoholic beverages. As early as when Uncle Guan Er harvested the vegetables, the old drunkard had already waited on the side drooling. The alcoholic beverages from the real world were not really his cup of tea. He still preferred alcoholic beverages from the ACG world.
Three units of Bean Sprout alcoholic beverages and two units of Leek alcoholic beverages were made one bottle each. And then he could finally use those drinks to “threaten” the old drunkard to work as a martial arts instructor.
Zhou Yu never gave up his Kungfu dream.
He couldn’t make any more alcoholic beverages. Because other villagers were still waiting to eat the ACG vegetables that were produced for the first ti in Mini Luhua Village. Every household had already brought out tables and chairs to form a simple village banquet scene.
But then everyone realized that there was no chef!
Usually, everyone just used their own small cooking stoves at ho, the only food they had were the fish of the ACG world, that Zhou Yu caught. Each fish was very small. So they could cook it by themselves. But those two ingredients were too big for them. Unless there were a professional chef and so professional cooking equipnt. Otherwise, the banquet couldn’t be continued.
Therefore, they could only rely on Zhou Yu.
Zhou Yu was speechless. Because he also wanted to try if those vegetables were as tasty as what they said in those online novels. Why did he suddenly have to be a chef?
To be honest, although he had lived in the village alone for more than a year, and he indeed also cooked so vegetable dishes from to ti, he was not good at cooking at all. Whenever he cooked, he basically chopped the vegetables into pieces, heat the oil, added so ginger, onions, and garlic, and then stirred the vegetable pieces blindly in the pan. No matter what kind of vegetables, they were all cooked this way. He never once expected that the food that was cooked by him, to taste good. As long as the food was edible, he would be fine with it.
With this kind of cooking skill, it was okay to cook food for himself. But now, he had to let so many people taste his ‘poison’, it was very embarrassing.
Sigh, he also didn’t have other choices. He couldn’t find anyone else to it.
Therefore, under the observation of the crowd, Zhou Yu began to stir-fry the vegetables. At this mont, it was already too late to check so recipes on the internet. Therefore, he had to ‘improvise’.
And his ‘improvise’ was still: washing, cutting, heating oil, adding ginger, onion, and garlic, and then stir-frying blindly!
As bean sprouts were poured into the frying pan, it instantly caused loud sizzling noises. However, Zhou Yu couldn’t care less about the noises. In order to save ti, he continued to throw the cut leek down and then fried them together. To finish the frying, he added so soy sauce and salt and then simred it for a while before it was poured on to a plate.
Well, at least the appearance was quite good. It was white and green, and with so black soy sauce. And most importantly, it was not burned.
Seeing the dish, everyone’s forehead was covered with sweat. Everyone was clearly speechless about Zhou Yu’s cooking skill. They were also amazed at how Zhou Yu was able to survive so long.
Anyway, this was the first mini Luhua village’s banquet, they had to grit their teeth and try it.
Ti to serve the food and let the village banquet begin!
