Chapter 230 The Temptation of Food

Lilith must be in the hands of the empress.

But Moonlight Knight did not confirm whether the Empress had left Lundini.

Even if there are gangster eyes and ears all over Lundini, it is still delusional to find the whereabouts of a "myth"-if the whereabouts of the empress were so easy to find, the Holy See would have gone to encircle the empress long ago.

The Holy See has long hated the empress, the 'myth' who constantly plots to harm the Pope under the nose of the Holy See.

Fortunately, the Moonnight Knight knows that Hannibal and the Empress have formed a strategic alliance. If Hannibal can be found, then the Empress’ whereabouts will naturally be under control. According to the Moonnight Knight’s understanding, Hannibal has two major hobbies. Literary studies, the second is cooking food.

So Moonlight Knight said to the bow rudder: "Rudder, although our family has money now, we don't need to spend it. We must open up financial resources to ensure our future life. There is a saying that if you don't manage money, you will ignore you, so we You must have a business mind, I have a difficult journey to the Rainbow Country, and I don’t know when I will return, so you should plan early..."

The bow rudder listened for a while and said: "My lord, you should pay attention to the danger and don't go to the Rainbow Kingdom."

"Wake up, you NPC!" Moonlight Knight was furious, "Why did you only focus on the Rainbow Kingdom!"

"Because I don't quite understand the rest of your lord's words. If you have any orders, lord, just say what you want, and I will do everything." The bow rudder said hurriedly.

"Then do you know about franchising and investment promotion?" Moonlight Knight said again, just about to start a long speech, the bow and rudder already yawned, obviously listening to Moonlight Knight's long-winded things is more unbearable than fighting to die.

"I want to change to another NPC..." Moonlight Knight said helplessly, "Who wrote a bad game, change me to another NPC!"

It is true that the bow and rudder are not thoughtful, but he has strong execution ability, so he will do what the Moonlight Knight says. In the blink of an eye the next day, an investment advertisement appeared in the "Lundinian Newspaper", titled "New Cooking way, subverting the traditional cuisine, XJ Grill officially settled in Lundini".

……

"Grilled Skewers～Grilled Skewers of Indus Branches～Large Skewers of Indus Branches～"

Hearing the cries coming from outside the window, Hannibal opened the blinds curiously and looked outside.

Although he was wanted by the Holy See, Hannibal knew that he should not show his whereabouts at will, but his curiosity about the new dishes really made him unbearable.

After much deliberation, Hannibal decided to taste this new dish. When he reached the first floor, he saw Bill wagging his dog-like nose curiously, obviously full of curiosity about it.

"You can't go out," Hannibal said, "I'll bring some back for you to eat."

"Thank you, master!" Bill drooled as soon as he opened his mouth.

Hannibal also found the aroma very attractive. During the journey from the villa to the door, he recognized that it should be the aroma of kuming. Can kuming emit this aroma through roasting?
But there was another kind of pungent smell that he had never smelled before, which enriched his taste buds. It was a very peculiar smell, which made people very curious.

Where Hannibal is at the moment is the industrial area on the northwest bank of the Ize River, which is not far from the villa where Hei Sha lived. There are hundreds of villas here, belonging to nobles, businessmen and other powerful groups, for the purpose of keeping mistresses. Or for entertaining guests, the concealment is very good, because the sheriff seldom finds out the identity of a certain house owner.

Now, when Hannibal came outside the villa, he saw a man with a long iron box hanging on his chest. There were charcoal fire and ventilation fire under the iron box. Roasting, the aroma of the meat wafts out, which is the source of the delicious smell that Hannibal and Bill smell.

Not only Hannibal, but many villa owners or residents have come out of the yard to ask how to sell this novel food.

"If it's just mutton, a bunch of 5 Copper Keller, if you add kuming, you need 3 silver reams, and if you add this magical spice from Cathay, you need 5 silver reams."

expensive.

With the large number of wool merchants entering Lundini, the wool has entered a period of high yield, and the value of mutton has dropped from 1.5 silver rings a catty to about 1 silver ring. This large string of meat can be about one-third of a catty, so it is sold for 5 copper grams. Le is not expensive.

But adding kuming would cost six times as much, and adding that magical spice from Cathay, it would cost close to 6 times, a quarter of a gold pound a piece, which is amazing.

Even if this is a rich area, not everyone can just spend a quarter of a gold pound to enjoy a kind of food.

The man with the long oven hanging on his chest smiled and said to everyone: "Hello everyone, I am the special commissioner of XJ BBQ stationed in this area, and my name is Avanti. Kuming is produced in another continent, and the price is comparable to gold, so That's why it's so expensive."

"What about the magic spice from Cathay? What is it?" Hannibal asked curiously.

Afanti looked at the elderly man with the brim of his hat pressed down to the brow, and he couldn't see his face clearly, and replied: "Its name is Pepper, and it is a collection of an adventurer. Because the quantity is very limited, we only have it in our hands." It is less than half a catty, so the price will be more expensive."

"I want a bunch with cumin and pepper." Hannibal took out 5 silver tokens.

With Hannibal as a demonstration, many customers paid for this novel food. The Avanti skewers were grilled with great joy. After tasting, everyone was surprised and thought it had a unique taste. , It is indeed unheard of. There are many businessmen here, so some people ask how to 'join'.

'Franchise' is a word read in newspapers, so Avanti introduced the franchise policy, such as publicity, to ensure that there are no less than three pages of introductions in newspapers such as "Lundinian", "Guardian" and so on. It will help the franchisee choose the location, yes, including the location, XJ BBQ should be a merchant instead of a peddler who sells on the street. Avanti promotes it as a commissioner, just because it is more convenient to do so.

Once the store is opened, all the raw materials will be provided by XJ BBQ. It only needs to invest 100 gold pounds. It is expected that the monthly profit will not be less than 10 gold pounds.

Even if the temporary site selection is unsuccessful and the store cannot be opened, the 100 gold pounds will generate endless interest. At the same time, this matter is endorsed by the Holy See, so there is no risk at all...

When Afanti introduced the business policy to many people, Hannibal ate a full 10 skewers of full-recipe barbecue, and at the same time took out 5 skewers for Bill, a total of nearly 4 gold pounds, which is really a fortune , was stuffed into Hannibal's belly like this, if he hadn't eaten up the only pepper in Avanti's hand, he might continue to taste it.

"Please bring more peppers here tomorrow." Hannibal said to Avanti.

"I'll try my best to allocate resources." Avanti said with a wry smile, "There are nearly a hundred specialists in Lundini for sales and promotion, and the number of peppers I can allocate here is very limited."

"Please be sure to do it, thank you very much." Hannibal took off his hat to pay tribute to Avanti, revealing his well-combed white and wise and broad forehead. After seeing his appearance, Avanti's eyes slightly A change, but the expression did not change, but also took off his hat in return.
