Gentleman's Night Canteen

But not carrying out rescue operations for the time being does not mean that everyone will turn a blind eye to it. The spies of the rebel army still shifted part of their attention to Lan Meng. Temporary absence of 'poison' is worth noting.

That's right, the information about Blue Dream Medicine overturning General Thunder has also been confirmed.

Although the rebels did not dare to confront the opponent head-on due to the strong strength of the "general", they also infiltrated the opponent's subordinates unknowingly, such as the pursuit of Tianling.

It may sound odd at first that the Tianling executive members who guarded the general's mansion were infiltrated by the rebels, but it is not impossible. After all, the promulgation of the "Eye Hunting Order" represents the vast majority of people with the "God's Eye" in the entire territory. People are born to stand on the opposite side of each other, and family members or friends of Tianling members may also become victims of the "eye hunting order".

Although the rescue operation was blocked, there was a lot of attention. Although Zhe Ping was not a member of the intelligence department, as a logistician secretly raising supplies for the rebels in Daozuma City, as long as he did not do anything drastic, There is no danger in the action just appearing near Blue Dream.

And when the door of Lanmeng's room was pushed open, countless lines of sight gathered there.

Many people looked thoughtful when they saw Lan Meng sending Jiutiao Saluo away with a smile on his face.

Because of Lan Meng's "assassination of the general alone", no one doubted his hostility to the general, so everyone ruled out the option of "Lan Meng is happy from the bottom of his heart" from the beginning, and started to make up his mind.

Most people suspect that Lan Meng may have been caught by others and have to flatter him. At the same time, many people have noticed that although Lan Meng has a smile on his face, he can't hide his fatigue at all. It's past noon, which is obviously not normal.

At the same time, although Jiujo Shaluo was still expressionless, his slightly flushed cheeks made people dream about it.

Because of Kujo Sharo's fanatical loyalty to the general, everyone has long been accustomed to regard it as the sharpest knife under the general's hand, and since the other party appeared in everyone's field of vision, he always has a cold face, let alone There have been gossips with the opposite sex, and even some people have long been accustomed to "Kujo Saura is Kujo Sahara" and completely forget the other party's gender.

Obviously, not only the vast majority of people, but even Jiujo Saluo himself forgot about this matter.

For her, the experience of surviving near death and obtaining the "God's Eye" made her already determined to serve the "General" for the rest of her life. As for her own gender?

Does it make sense?

She didn't consider herself a woman at all, she obviously didn't realize that the lonely men and widows "dated" in the private space for more than an hour every morning. At the end, one of them was tired but forced a smile (wrong), And what kind of misunderstanding would the other person have if his face is ruddy despite his indifferent expression?

Suddenly, a strange rumor began to spread among the crowd unconsciously...

Chapter 20 Magic cooking?It seems very powerful, but what if you don't know magic?

Lan Meng, who didn't realize that he had become the center of public opinion and scandal in Inazuma City, returned to his restaurant after sending Kujo Saro away.

Although he still hasn't figured out about his talent, Kujo Saura took the initiative to accept his invitation to be an 'experiment', and he should be able to collect enough information in a short time.

As for this time, he didn't get nothing.

First of all, it can be determined that this talent is not passive in the true sense, that is to say, not all the dishes he made have this effect. At first glance, it is a bit disappointing, but combined with the second discovery, it is good news, because He has determined that activating this talent needs to consume his energy.

He also felt tired yesterday after cooking for 'General Thunder and Lightning', but at the time he thought it was just because he was nervous about being caught in a prison.

This is probably the reason why he slept so deeply last night, otherwise he wouldn't have had no reaction when the other party touched him by the window when Jiujo Shaluo didn't hide himself.

But what Lan Meng cares about is the way he activates his talent.

Because there is no manual at all, he tried to 'copy' the method of activation for the first time, that is, through memory, but the introduction also wrote that the key to his talent lies in 'emotional resonance' rather than 'memory resonance', he It is just to activate the inner emotions through the way of self-remembering.

But there is another biggest disadvantage of this method, that is, the effect will probably get worse and worse. After all, deliberately recalling certain things may not be able to activate certain emotions in the heart.

This is what he needs to pay attention to next.

But talent belongs to talent, and the foundation of everything is the food itself. Even if he develops his own talent well, if the food is too poor, it will be greatly reduced. Putting aside the research on his own talent for the time being, Lan Meng decided to continue studying cooking.

Especially the 'recipe' obtained before is the most important thing in the future.

You must know that the "General Thunderbolt" made a one-month agreement with him, and he is not sure about the growth of his own cooking and talent, so in order to fulfill the other party's "request", he chose the recipe he obtained from the other party by a trick. a good choice.

Lan Meng returned to the store with the ingredients and began to study the recipe while adjusting the closure to opening in the 'store system' to wait for customers to come to the door.

As for the recipe itself, Lan Meng had already seen it last night, and it was not complicated, but it was not realized last night because of the lack of ingredients, but today the ingredients have been obtained, so he is naturally ready to start experimenting.

It is actually not troublesome to make, the main ingredients needed are just 'dumplings' and 'milk'.

In fact, when Lan Meng first saw the name of the recipe, he was also confused. After all, these two things could not be connected at all in Lan Meng's view.

Milk is a normal drink, and dango is a relatively common Japanese snack. When I first saw the name of the recipe, Lan Meng couldn't figure out how to make this dish. I couldn't make a Haikou cup and fill it with milk before stuffing the dango into it. Bar?

But after reading the recipe, Blue Dream's first reaction was——— pearl milk tea.

Of course, the specific production method is not the same as pearl milk tea, but the process is not far behind.

Among them, the milk can be used directly, but the key lies in the 'dumplings'.

Dumplings can roughly be divided into Chinese and Japanese. Although there are some differences in the production methods, the most important thing is the outermost layer of glutinous rice balls.

And the dumplings in this "Duanzi Milk" are naturally made of glutinous rice flour. The reason why Lanmeng feels like "Pearl Milk Tea" is because the "Duanzi" is made very small. The analogy is Yuanxiao.

Speaking of Lantern Festival, many people may think of the commonly eaten "Red Bean Lantern Festival", but in fact the real Lantern Festival is completely different from the usual Lantern Festival.

Strictly speaking, the Lantern Festival we eat every day should belong to glutinous rice balls.

At first glance, it may seem that there is no difference between the two, but in fact the production process is quite different.

Glutinous rice balls are generally made of glutinous rice noodles, filled with fillings like dumplings, and then reunited. This kind of glutinous rice balls can be stored for a long time in the refrigerator.

However, the Lantern Festival usually cuts the fillings into small pieces, dips them in water, rolls them in a basket filled with glutinous rice noodles, and sprinkles water while rolling. It is made by adding sugar to things that are very high. As for the glutinous rice balls, because they are directly wrapped in them, the natural fillings are more random. Naturally, sesame, peanuts, fruits and other high sugar content can be used, as well as vegetables, meat, etc., and even now there are Cheese, seafood and other practices.

Tangyuan is easy to make, so it is the most eaten on weekdays, but for Lan Meng who needs to control the size of the "dumplings", the method of making Yuanxiao is more suitable.

The reason why Lan Meng would consider using this method to make 'dumplings' is not because he likes to think for himself, but because he can't make it at all according to the recipe.

Since it is a recipe, it naturally has all the processes, whether it is the processing of milk or the production of dumplings, but the problem is that the 'dumplings' in the recipe are made with magic! !

The half-year study at the star base really reinvented him, but he had never been exposed to magic.

In the end, I had to find another way from myself.

Fortunately, during the Lantern Festival, the Lantern Festival was made in the orphanage.

Now that there is already an intention to make it, Blue Dream began to try to make it.

The first step is naturally to make the filling.

And the stuffing he chooses is 'red bean stuffing'

Red beans are obviously not a common ingredient, neither his teacher nor the ingredients brought by Kujo Sara, but fortunately he can go directly to the supermarket to buy them.

However, when he passed by the shelf, he happened to see a package of red bean stuffing, and Lanmeng put it back on the shelf after careful consideration.

Although the current Lan Meng has already unknowingly acquiesced to his identity as a chef, but his personality is not rigid, nor does he reject high-tech products, but the problem is that Lan Meng does not know whether the use of this semi-finished product will affect his health. His own ability, so he still chooses to make it by himself when it is not necessary.

Wash a large bag of red beans and start soaking them in hot water.

Although the best situation is to soak it in cold water for 24 hours, but because he was in a hurry to use it, he simply soaked it in hot water. As for the rest, he can only make up for it through his cooking skills.

While soaking, he also deliberately checked the condition of his marinated meat.

Compared with the hurried business last night, Lanmeng's preparations today are much more adequate, not only the ingredients from his teacher and Jiutiao Shaluo for free, but also some of the ingredients just bought in the supermarket, especially the ingredients of various kinds. seasoning, Lan Meng believes that his work today should go much smoother...

Chapter 21 Beyond Magic with Technology

After the red beans are soaked, Lan Meng puts them into the pressure cooker and starts cooking.

I have to say that the pressure cooker is a good thing. It uses the method of artificially changing the pressure to change the boiling point to reduce the cooking time. However, there are advantages and disadvantages. Some dishes will reduce the flavor when cooked in a pressure cooker, so the choice of kitchen utensils when making dishes is also a test. Chef's experience and ability.

But the red bean stuffing Lan Meng plans to make doesn't matter.

After simmering for about half an hour, the original red beans are also "skinned and fleshy". Press gently with chopsticks and if they can be deformed, it means that they are almost cooked.

Domestic refueling and preheating, then pour the cooked red beans into it and stir fry on low heat, and add white sugar while stirring, but there is a better substitute for Lanmeng, the honey in my teacher's store is said to be a green bear beast I cried and gave it to my teacher, and it is just right to bring it now.

With the long chopsticks, the amber honey slowly falls on the red beans and pulls out a silver thread.

At first glance, it seems to be no different from ordinary honey, but when you lick the tip of your chopsticks lightly, a strange floral fragrance permeates your mouth. According to Lan Meng's experience, it should be a special honey that only exists in ancient forests. The nectar of plants is difficult to transplant because it requires both the special environment of the ancient tree forest and a certain amount of dragon vein energy for nourishment.

It is an extremely rare plant, let alone a nectar made from its pollen.

It's no wonder that the blue bear cried and gave it to his teacher. If it were him, he would cry too, and it would cry very loudly, the kind that would roll on the ground.

While silently complaining in his heart that his teacher bullied the monsters near the camp, he added some more without hesitation and made up his mind to go back and prostitute some more after using it up.

Stir fry with a spatula until most of the water disappears and only sticky red bean paste remains.

The stuffing has been completed, and the next step is to make the "dumplings" in the recipe, or the Lantern Festival that Lan Meng is familiar with.

Divide the red bean stuffing into small yuanzi that are not as big as a fingernail, then take out a large bowl and put glutinous rice flour in it, then put the red bean yuanzi into the bowl and start rolling.

The red bean stuffing made of red beans, oil and honey has a certain degree of stickiness, and it will naturally stick to the glutinous rice flour.

However, it soon lost its stickiness because it was covered with glutinous rice flour. At this time, if it is a skilled master, you can shake the basin with your hand while sprinkling water with the other hand, and keep rolling until it is completely formed. Not bad, but he couldn't do this kind of fancy work for the first time, so he honestly picked it up with chopsticks and took out a small watering can to spray water mist.

The outermost layer of glutinous rice flour became sticky again due to the water mist, and Lan Meng didn't stop until it reached the desired size after putting it into the bowl.

Looking at the snow-white dumpling in his hand, Lan Meng started the next step.

After the milk is heated to boiling, turn down the heat, and then put the prepared 'dumplings' into the milk and cook. The next steps are not much different from the normal cooking of glutinous rice balls. The only thing to pay attention to is to stir with a spoon or chopsticks from time to time to prevent The 'glutinous rice balls' stick to the bottom, and at the same time, add some honey when it is almost out of the pan.

Suddenly, a milky smell began to permeate the kitchen.

Because the 'dumpling' is relatively small, it doesn't need to be cooked for too long, but the 'milk dumpling' that has just been cooked is too hot to eat, but as time goes by, the 'dumpling' will continue to melt, so this How to solve it?

It's easy -- with ice!

The crushed ice cubes made of milk fell into the bottle with the movement of Lanmeng, and the dumplings below gradually became qualitative with the addition of ice cubes to the outermost layer.

Because it was the first time to do it, Lanmeng specially divided it into several parts to test the amount of ice cubes that need to be added.

This new recipe, or a recipe that is completely different from the general method, will naturally have a trial and error stage in the research stage.

Sitting in the store with several cups of 'Milk Dumplings', Lan Meng is looking for the most suitable proportion of ice cubes while tasting.

"This won't work, there are too many ice cubes, the dumpling is too hard, the smell of glutinous rice flour is too obvious, this is also not good, the ice cubes are not enough, the dumpling is too soft, even a little 'loose'..."

After drinking it several times in a row, Lanmeng found a good method, that is, put in crushed ice cubes and stir gently with a spoon, and stir the crushed ice cubes in the cup by stirring with a spoon, which can be done artificially Control the solidification change of the dumpling.

Although this method cannot guarantee the change of every dumpling, at least it has a certain success rate.

While manually testing, Lan Meng lamented that the recipes in different worlds are really outrageous. Most of the steps of the 'dumpling milk' made in Inazuma City can be completed by magic, so he doesn't need to be so troublesome.

But when Lan Meng was sighing, a pleasant wind chime sounded suddenly, Lan Meng hurriedly collected her emotions, and turned to look in the direction of the store entrance with a smile on her face.

"welcome?"

The originally enthusiastic voice stopped abruptly, even with a little doubt.

Why is this so?

It's very simple, because the few people who appeared in the store at this time were too 'weird'.

The leading pair of young men and women are fairly normal, and the man is wearing a standard men's casual suit with a slight smile, which makes people feel close and at the same time does not give people a sense of falseness because of the smile.

As for the lady wearing a small dress beside the other party, she had a bright smile on her face, and she was obviously in a good mood.

Unsurprisingly, it should be a couple, but the two behind each other are a bit weird.

First of all, the grown man with the messy hair is wearing a work suit, which is nothing in itself, but it seems a bit strange to follow the obviously expensive couple.

At the same time, the other party was also leading a little girl with short pink hair in weird clothes. At this time, the girl was constantly turning her head and observing the store, seeming a little flustered.

Not only that, but the little girl with short pink hair was obviously close to the handsome blond guy, casting doubt on the original guess that the other party was the daughter of the man with messy hair.

These four guests are obviously together, but it always feels a bit weird to gather four people with completely different styles of painting.

But no matter how strange it felt, Lan Meng still greeted him with a smile on his face.

"Four guests, is there anything you want to eat?"

Following Lan Meng's initiative to ask, the blond man stepped forward with a smile and stretched out his right hand towards Lan Meng.

"We just got out of the amusement park, do you have any snacks or drinks? We want to grab a bite and go home."

Facing the right hand extended by the guest, Lan Meng held it directly, but what Lan Meng didn't notice was that there seemed to be an indescribable taste in the smiling eyes of the smiling man in front of him...

Chapter 22 Remodeling Man·Blue Dream (Mistake)

'Twilight', a West Country agent who came to East Country to stop the war.

As for his name?Abandoned when he stepped into the dark, but now rechristening himself 'Lloyd Fudge' for his mission.

Now his task is very simple, that is to adopt a child, then act as the other's father, and then use that child to contact an important person in the Eastern Kingdom at the parent association of a prestigious school.

In order to complete his task, he not only adopted a child, but also just completed a 'flash marriage' not long ago.

Of course, he didn't tell them about his identity as a spy, not only because of the secrecy of the job itself, but also because he knew that if he was exposed, not only himself, but everyone related to him would be in danger , so even for their own sake, he would keep his identity a secret.

It's just that his 'task' had unexpected twists and turns last night, that is, his wife kept a straight face and seemed to be in a bad mood.

In order not to let his "emotional breakdown" cause the mission to fail, he decided to plan a date to save the relationship.

But what made him helpless was that when facing his wife, he suddenly found that all his experiences became meaningless.

Obviously, in order to collect information before, he even acted as a triangle by himself, dated three women at the same time and finally captured their hearts!

But why did it fail this time?

But he was fortunate that the other party's mood improved after dinner, and he could only sigh silently, "A woman's heart is a needle in the sea", but there was nothing he could do.
