As the days passed, Boom spent the whole day practicing magic in his room, while Christine taught Perseus and Hastur the basic rules of this world. As for Rikka, she finally got her wish and once again carried a small bamboo basket every day.
Walking through the streets and alleys of Wallkill City, I became more and more cheerful.
As one of the three main cities of the goblins and a town mainly engaged in trade, the population density of Wallkill City is not inferior to any other place, whether it is the King of Ogu or the Cadian City of the Principality of Shayel. But if you think that the goblins are just manufacturers of technological products, you will be shocked when you first arrive in Cadian City. The Rusty Plains where the goblins are located is spring-like all year round. Although there are not enough herders, they can rely on
With the natural fertility of the soil, it can also produce countless livestock.
However, the above is just common sense. Today, in the aristocratic circles of the ancient continent, the most popular drinks are tea from the dark elves, coffee from the trolls, and hot cocoa from the goblins. However, in the past two years, the most popular drinks are
, is a specialty ingredient of the goblins.
The reason for this phenomenon is all thanks to the city lord of Wallkill City, because this city lord has a very good vision. He actually gave up high prices and short-term profits, and quickly gathered people's hearts at low and affordable prices. Today, he has reaped the benefits.
The total benefits have already exceeded expectations.
Because of this incident, Grand Duke Shaheru was furious, but in addition to the prohibition of selling goblin ingredients in Shaheru's territory, those delicious foreign foods would appear on the tables of every household in the Augu Continent and even the Frost Riding Castle from time to time.
.
The market area of Wallkill City is a very famous attraction and is a place that many travelers like to visit. The market area of Wallkill City covers a huge area and is divided separately.
Guarded by specific city guards, the stalls look like neatly arranged strips of grids from above, and in rainy weather, mechanical waterproof curtains can also prevent the situation from happening.
In addition, the mercenary union in Wallkill City not only recognizes foreign mercenary groups, but also tolerates outsiders from the Ogu continent. Therefore, for those mercenaries with limited skills, they can be assigned to guard the Wallkill City market.
Entrusted by the district, it has become the easiest way to make money and make a living.
In addition, Wallkill City's laws focus on commercial transactions, so transactions in the market area are naturally protected to a great extent. At least except for some petty thieves, there has not been a single bloody incident until today. And in
Under the influence of this healthy competition, the market area is naturally highly sought after, whether it is goblin nobles or travelers from afar.
"Uncle, what are these, and why do they grow on wooden piles?" Rikka walked into the Wallkill City Market District while eating her favorite white sugar cake.
I saw many stalls displaying this kind of umbrella-shaped plant either inserted in the soil or growing on a small wooden stake. They are not very expensive, and dry goods are also sold.
Rikka has been hanging around in various market areas all year round, so she has also summed up her own set of ideas. Although each market area is different, it is always the same. The things sold are either edible or edible.
Or it is inedible.
"Oh? It's the first time for a foreigner to visit Wallkill City. That's right. Otherwise, he wouldn't have asked such a question that even a child knows."
"These things are called 'mushrooms'. There are many kinds. Most of them are edible and very delicious. But a small part are highly poisonous, so it's best not to pick them by yourself. Just buy them from me."
!"
"These growing on wooden piles are wild mushrooms that cannot be cultivated artificially, while those that are fresh are mass-produced. The taste of wild mushrooms is far better than artificially cultivated products. Of course, their prices will also
Higher."
"How's it going? Do you want to buy some and go back to try it? I see it's your first time coming to Wallkill City, so I will give you a recipe today. You know my wife is very famous for her craftsmanship."
While the stall owner was talking, he took out the so-called "recipe" from his arms. However, the things recorded on it were dishes that were well known to the goblin tribe, men, women, and children. However, even so, they could impress Rikka.
After some haggling, the stall owner lowered his waist, and even many passers-by gathered around. A transaction of a hundred gold coins is rare even in the market area of Wallkill City.<
/p>
However, Rikka didn't think so much. In her opinion, as long as Boom eats happily, not to mention a hundred gold coins, even if everything in the dimensional space is cleared, it is worth it.
"Chicken soup! Remember, it must be chicken soup made from pheasants!" The stall owner kept waving his hands, not forgetting to remind Rikka not to waste the precious ingredients he sold.
In the next half hour, Rikka saw more goblin specialties. Finally, the little girl turned around and walked out of the Wallkill City market area with satisfaction. All tonight's dishes were stored in the dimensional space, waiting for her to go back and cook them by herself.
.
After returning to the courtyard, Rikka had no time to pay attention to Boom's inquiry and went straight into the kitchen and told Perseus to be guarding outside.
"Well...it seems that the quantity is still too small, but it should be enough for my brother and sister Christine."
"It's a pity. It seems that I can only buy it next time. I don't know how it tastes."
Rikka kept muttering as she slaughtered the pheasant with ease. She plucked the feathers, removed the internal organs, boiled water, and added more than a dozen kinds of herbs.
The afternoon sun finally turned into an orange-red sunset, and bursts of aroma flowed from the kitchen. Even Christine closed the book. Hastur begged in Perseus's ear, but the big bald head
He didn't dare to disobey Rikka's orders, so he could only guard the door of the kitchen with his brother, hoping to eat some delicious food as soon as possible.
As night falls, the kitchen door slowly opens, and then plates of food are brought to the dining table. The most eye-catching thing is naturally two small clay cups.
"Try it, these are the goblin tribe's specialty foods. Don't grab them randomly. They have already been divided!" Rikka said and sat down next to Boom, as if she hadn't rested all afternoon. p>
"Master, why are Master Boom and Master Christine's utensils like this, different from ours?" Perseus was rarely smart, but what he got was Rikka's sharp gaze.
"Just eat, don't talk so much, there are not enough kitchen utensils, I will buy them tomorrow." Rikka rolled her eyes, and then opened the clay cup for Boom with her own hands.
Pan-fried asparagus, sausage and omelette with rice, and mushroom soup. Everyone ate very seriously, and for a while there was no other sound in the room except the sound of chewing.
"It tastes very good, but I've already eaten a lot of snacks before. If Rikka doesn't mind, I can just wipe out the remaining half of the eight mushroom soup for my sister." Christine put down the spoon and smiled before her eyes.
The clay cup was pushed to Rikka.
When Rikka heard this, she was stunned at first, thinking that the food she had worked so hard to cook was not to the opponent's taste. But when she saw the hint in Christine's eyes, she couldn't help but blush, and then "cleaned the battlefield" for the opponent.<

The goblin vendor's recipe book is lying quietly in the dimensional space at this moment. There are two recipes for "Eight Mushroom Soup" recorded on it. One is made of shiitake mushrooms, straw mushrooms, mouth mushrooms, enoki mushrooms, king oyster mushrooms, and chicken legs.
Mushrooms, green head mushrooms, and fungus are boiled cheap. This is exactly what Rikka, Perseus, and Hastur are eating tonight.
As for the second type, it is a delicious mountain delicacy mixed with matsutake mushrooms, morels, black chicken fir, porcini mushrooms, chanterelles, osmanthus mushrooms, tiger palm mushrooms and bamboo fungus. Not to mention the time consuming.
Considering the price and rarity of these eight kinds of mushrooms, even a rich woman like Rikka can only fill two clay cups at a time.
