I'm a mage, what's wrong with loving farming?

Chapter 182 182. Magic Food Shop, Mermaid Awakens

"The power of the water can also bypass the power of the Earth Mother Goddess."

Kloya looked at the completed special magic plant that should be named "Water Barley" and nodded with satisfaction.

Next, it is time to test the effect of this magic plant. If the effect of this magic plant is good, it will be necessary to start mass planting.

In addition, he needs to cultivate the spirituality of this barley so that it can learn the knowledge of canning, so that the magic energy channel can be passed on.

He thought about what to do next, handed the completed water barley to his subordinates, and ordered them to make bread.

With his request, the cooks certainly did not dare to neglect it.

They got busy and made a plate of blue bread overnight and sent it to Kloya.

To be honest... this looks really unappetizing, just like a child's clay, which is really strange.

But this thing is at least researched by himself, so Kloya must taste it.

He picked up a piece of bread and put it in his mouth to chew, and his frown relaxed as he chewed.

This taste... unexpectedly good.

It still retains the taste and flavor of Poseidon barley, sweet and soft, but there is also a very strange cool taste in it.

When you chew, you can even feel that you are chewing a ball of water... and it is a ball of ice water.

After chewing and swallowing, this cool feeling will spread in the stomach and gradually spread into the body-this is the power of the water power.

If Cloya is not wrong, this water power can enhance physical fitness, but it has no gain in the perception of magic.

Because the water power is theoretically not a kind of power that can be controlled, even Cloya can only use the water power now, and cannot completely control it.

"If this is the case..."

He looked at the unmodified Poseidon barley, and used the pure magic of the etheric world to transform them according to the previous steps.

This time... it was very unsuccessful.

The resistance of the Earth Mother's curse to magic power is obviously much greater than that of the Water Star.

Fortunately, Cloya has been helping to regulate it, and the magic power of the Ether Realm is very special, so it finally succeeded.

The rice transformed by the magic power of the Ether Realm turned into a translucent light purple, at least it looked more appetizing than the clear blue.

He immediately handed the barley transformed by the pure magic power of the Ether Realm to the cooks and told them to continue making bread.

The second bread was very good, very close to the effect that Cloya expected.

After eating it, the pure magic power contained in the bread slowly affected the body, and even improved the perception of magic power.

Although not much, it is indeed there.

"This is not bad. If you eat this kind of barley for a long time, you should be able to improve your perception of magic power... Well, wait."

He suddenly had a very bold idea, and immediately took out a few bottles of Sea Ganoderma potion, and told his cooks to use this potion as water to mix the dough and make bread.

Only he would try this extravagant method.

The third batch of bread was delivered quickly, and this time the bread looked even more strange. There were blue stripes like waves inside the lavender bread.

It looked pretty at first glance.

"It looks good, but I don't know how it tastes..."

After tasting it, his eyes lit up, and he called a magic apprentice and ordered him to eat a piece of bread.

The apprentice, whose name was unknown, was a little dazed when he was called in the middle of the night, but he immediately became energetic after eating the bread.

He said excitedly:

"My Lord! I feel the magic power in my body is agitated... It seems that I can perceive the magic power outside more clearly.

And my mind has become so clear."

The young apprentice licked his lips. This feeling of being particularly clear made him want to go back and learn magic spells immediately. If he learns now, he will definitely remember more knowledge.

After listening to the apprentice's description, Cloya's expression became more pleasant. Although this kind of bread can only do little for him, it is good to be useful to the apprentice.

He waved his hand generously:

"Then you can take two pieces back."

"Thank you, sir!"

The apprentice immediately thanked him profusely and ran back with the bread. As for how to chew the bread and study hard after running back, that was his own business.

And Kroya stared at the bread and suddenly thought of a very good way to make money - food.

He deeply understood how high the requirements of noble mages for food were. When he was in the capital, he had seen too many mages get angry over food.

He wanted to send someone to go back with Estner and open a store selling special food in the capital.

As we all know, things related to magic are almost all highly profitable. Now that he has this ability, of course he wants to share a piece of the pie, and it just happens that he can establish his own power in the capital.

But if there is only this kind of bread, it is not enough, and more is needed.

...

After some thought.

He thought that since the potion can be used as water to make bread, then... the morning dew potion can also be used.

He immediately tried it, and the result was naturally successful. Two different kinds of bread were placed in front of him.

The first was the "Sea Spirit Bread" mixed with the Sea Ganoderma potion, and the second was the "Morning Dew Bread" made by him using the Yangyan magic produced by sunflowers to engrave on barley.

One of the two breads was purple with a little blue wave pattern, and the other was golden like the morning sun, mixed with the gorgeous red like a burning cloud.

They both looked very good, at least when they were taken out, people could tell at a glance that they were magical creations, which was a symbol of status for nobles and some wizards.

In a sense, they were no different from birds that liked shiny things.

The effects of the two were also completely different.

After eating the Sea Spirit Bread, the perception of magic power would increase, and the brain and mental power would become unusually clear.

After eating the Morning Dew Bread, the body could be slowly conditioned, some hidden injuries could be treated, and even the effect of increasing vitality was very slight.

The former is naturally for magicians, while the latter is more for combat professions such as warriors and knights and nobles who do not know magic, who are the most cherishing of their lives.

After making it and tasting it himself, he immediately decided to use these two types of bread as the core selling point.

Pastries are the most enduring, and a good pastry is the characteristic of the store and the foundation of the store.

As for the more advanced ones, he took the honey brewed by bees from sunflower nectar and made honey bread after baking.

The golden honey of the sunflower is poured on the equally golden bread, forming a layer of halo like sunrise, flickering lightly and exuding a sweet smell.

He tried it, and this bread tasted very sweet, and there was a warm feeling of eating the sun into his mouth, as if soaking in the sea of ​​sunflower honey.

To be honest, it was really pretty good.

Except... it was a little too sweet, it was pretty good.

Kroya didn't know why people in this world were so fond of sweets, but the fact was that in the original owner's memory in the capital, those desserts and cakes were particularly sweet.

For more advanced desserts... he needed to find someone to make them. Although he knew a series of desserts such as tiramisu and Black Forest cake, he had no idea how to make them.

After completing the bread and the advanced version of bread, he began to consider the issue of drinks.

The most common drink in this world is actually coffee, but that kind of coffee is very bitter, and it is bitter coffee without any seasoning.

After tasting this kind of coffee once, Cloya almost vomited it out. The taste was so bitter that it was hard to describe. He really couldn't drink it.

It is said that some nobles have a cup of bitter coffee early in the morning... He couldn't imagine what it would feel like to drink this kind of thing in the morning.

So what he planned to make was naturally milk tea.

Milk tea is a long-lasting thing everywhere. The dopamine satisfaction brought by the sweetness is the fundamental reason why many people pursue milk tea.

Since people in this world like to eat sweet things so much, don't blame him for making a killer weapon like milk tea.

He had experience in making milk tea before, and now he only needs to process it a little bit, and there are even many types of milk tea that can be made.

For example, the basic milk tea with calming lily of the valley and sunflower nectar, coconut milk tea made with calming lily of the valley and coconut milk, and pearl milk tea made with thick potato starch...

He even thought about it briefly and found that he could make many kinds of milk tea.

If you add his unique way of blending magic, the effect of these milk teas will not be much worse than potions.

The more he thought about it, the more excited he became.

Then he couldn't wait to try it.

Because of his order, even the sleeping wizard apprentices started to get busy, and the underground laboratory was filled with a sweet smell.

With the help of the magician, the finished products were sent to Cloya's laboratory one by one for him to taste.

He looked at the full of milk tea on his table and rubbed his stomach again. Fortunately, his muscles were still tight and he could see obvious muscles.

He began to taste one cup after another, until the sweetness was so sweet that he felt that his taste buds were a little dysfunctional, and then he decided on the first few types to sell.

They are the regular version, the version mixed with the sea ganoderma potion, the version mixed with the morning dew potion, and the pearl milk tea.

At the beginning, these three are enough, and then new products will be slowly introduced, so that people can have a constant sense of freshness and stimulate people to buy.

After determining these three types of milk tea, he tried every means to start optimizing them.

The optimization of milk tea is nothing more than raw materials, such as the ratio of sea ganoderma potion and morning dew potion, the output of milk source, and the types of tea.

It is a pity that the only tea that Kroya can use as tea is the tranquilizing lily of the valley.

In fact, in addition to coffee, this world also has some tea drinks, mainly black tea, which is mixed with black tea, milk and sugar.

Of course, there is also a magic plant version of the black tea tree.

It's just that that kind of thing is really only available at the level of the great wizard. It seems very difficult for tea trees to become magic plants, so that magic tea leaves are much more valuable than gold coins.

It's not something he can consider for the time being.

…

The next day, after a busy night, Cloya brought the finished product he prepared to the table as breakfast for Estner to taste.

The latter looked puzzled, and after looking at Cloya, he began to taste it. As a result, his eyes lit up after tasting it.

"Not bad!"

He praised: "These things taste very good, especially this tea. Is there any sea ganoderma potion added to it?"

He was referring to Lan Yingying's cup of sea ganoderma milk tea.

"Yes." Cloya didn't beat around the bush and asked directly: "If these things are sold in the capital, do you think anyone will spend money to buy them?"

"Of course there will be."

Estner answered without hesitation: "This kind of food containing magic power will definitely sell well in the capital, especially the tea you made, which tastes really good."

Generally speaking, people who like to farm will also have some requirements for food. Estner belongs to this type. He has bought too much food at the Versailles Hall in the capital.

The things there can sell flour at the price of magic crystals. Although the taste is good, the price is really high. Even he couldn't afford it.

"Then how do you think the price should be set?"

It's rare to have such a familiar person to the king, so Cloya must seize this opportunity to ask.

"Isn't it simple? One magic crystal for one cup, one magic crystal for one piece."

"Ah?"

Although Cloya also felt that his things were worth this price, he had never thought of setting such a high price. After all, magic crystals...

Even the original him who saved up for so long only had twenty pieces. Wouldn't it be too expensive as a cheap commodity?

"You can even sell a bottle of magic potion for one magic crystal, so can't you sell something like this after fine processing?"

"Besides, the more expensive you set the price, the more people will buy it."

"Is that so? Hehe, thank you very much." Cloya immediately figured out the relationship inside and smiled: "You really helped me a lot."

"When my store opens, I will give you 20% of the shares, how about it?"

His plan was not a sudden idea, but a long-term plan.

After all, he couldn't stay in the capital for a long time. If there was any problem, it would definitely be troublesome to deal with.

But it would be different if Estner was taking care of it. He was a battle mage of the Mage Association, and he had a great mage as his mentor.

With him, at least a lot of troubles would be reduced, and he would have time to deal with these troubles, and he could earn back the profits that he had given up.

Obviously, Estner also knew what Cloya meant.

He thought about it for a while and agreed directly. To be honest, he was very optimistic about Cloya's development, and it was a good thing to invest in it early.

The most important thing was that he really had a good chat with Cloya, and it was rare for him to have a friend who could chat with him to his heart's content.

"I'll help you take care of it, and I'll help you find the location of the store. So when do you plan to send someone?"

"When you leave, I will complete the transportation of raw materials through the channels of the Holy Spring Chamber of Commerce, and sell them in limited quantities every day."

"Limited quantity, that's good too. Your thing is the first in the capital."

"Well... then I'll leave in a few days."

"Ah? Why are you in such a hurry? I'm not in a hurry to open a store."

"Although you are very comfortable here, I still have to hurry back. I'm worried that something might happen." Estner's expression suddenly became a little serious.

"...Okay."

Since people have said so, Kloya really has no reason to stop him, and he nodded.

"I will send someone to leave with you."

"Okay."

The conversation between the two on this matter came to an end for the time being.

In the following period of time, Kloya took Estner to visit all his fields except for a few places that could not be known by outsiders.

Five days later, Estner said goodbye.

After preparing a bunch of treasures from the sea for him, Croa personally sent him and a group of apprentices he arranged away.

These apprentices were led by the original apprentice Jamie to the capital thousands of miles away to carry out Croa's first external expansion.

After sending these apprentices away, Croa began to expand and develop himself. He planted magic plants in all the vacant areas on Hanjiao Island.

These magic plants came from the apprentices brought back from outside, and he also traded with other lords one after another.

At the same time, he also began to try to use the grapes from the magic field vines to make wine. As he thought, his magic power was the catalyst.

In such a busy time, the wind and snow outside showed signs of stopping, gradually weakening from violent.

He felt that the magic flow surrounding the entire ocean and the North had a tendency to weaken.

Obviously, the wind and snow would not last long.

After discovering this, he inexplicably felt very nervous. Both the angel and the Orpheus Oak had warned him before that the mermaids would do something after the wind and snow stopped.

He began to strengthen his symphony.

During this period, the magic power of the greedy demons brought back by the apprentices and holy knights also greatly helped him.

The exploration of the paradise of gluttony continued.

Everything was moving in a good direction.

Another half a month passed, and when he was communicating with Estner about the matters of the Royal Capital Shop.

The crystal card of the Holy Spring Chamber of Commerce flashed.

After checking, he found that it was actually a message from the Lord of the Pit and the Lord of Gray Sand, and he was immediately surprised.

Weren't these two people hunted by the seventh-level wizard?

Just when Kloya wanted to see what message they had given, he suddenly felt something and left his laboratory immediately.

He stood on the terrace garden of the castle, looking into the depths of the ocean with a serious face.

I saw a blue tree suddenly appearing in the azure sea. It was so tall that it seemed to cover the sky and the earth, emitting countless light particles, flying around the ocean.

The water flow of the ocean and the moonlight falling from the sky converged towards it, as if forming two very special halos for the tree.

At the same time, the singing of mermaids resounded throughout the sea.

Even the light of the sun was obscured by such a miracle, and all that could be seen was this miraculous scenery.

But... its light formed an extremely huge light shield, covering the entire ocean, including the Hanjiao Island where Kloa was.

Outside the light shield, no one could see what was happening inside.
