The so-called Andean black cattle are considered to be the most famous top-grade beef cattle in the alliance. They are about the size of a yak, and are wrapped in a shiny black skin that looks like a mullet. However, once the leather is removed, the red meat will be revealed.
The meat is clearly white, plump and plump with marble-like textures, making people salivate just looking at it.
The price of top-quality Andean black cattle is beyond the reach of ordinary working-class people. Even for my uncle's Rongxiao, I would only order a special amount when a customer occasionally made a reservation in advance.
However, since it was the Chinese New Year anyway, Yu Lian felt that he could occasionally bring his family to have a toothpaste ceremony, so he actually ordered a complete Andean black bull. It was a 3-year-old bull that had just grown up, and it was in the best balance of meat quality.
.
Anyway, just counting his legal salary and allowances as a major general, Yu Lian could still afford to buy cattle, and he had many friends in the alliance, so he could get a slight discount.
Based on the various parts of the cow, Yu Lian has already thought of twenty dishes. From cold dishes to cold dishes to hard dishes to soups and even staple food, it can be regarded as a sumptuous New Year's Eve dinner. It is really endless.
Just sell it slowly in the next year. Anyway, with a prosperous restaurant, the last thing you need to worry about is wasting ingredients.
However, what Yu Lian never expected was that the slaughtered black cow was not delivered, but it was a two-tailed cow as big as an adult rhinoceros, and it was actually alive.
"Where did a black Andean cow as big as mine go?" Yu Lian asked angrily.
Krell pointed at the two-tailed cow in front of him and said with a smile: "I already have this, what else do I need for a black cow?"
Indeed, although Andean black cattle are rare delicacies, they are still mortal things that can be farmed after all. This kind of double-tailed cattle has reached the level of a fantasy beast species, and the conditions for breeding are extremely harsh. Even the wealthy Alliance Star Alliance Food Company
, only a small amount of stocking is carried out in natural pastures on several planets that have undergone environmental modification.
It is said that its meat is extremely rich and juicy, and its protein is more than six times that of ordinary beef. Like the "dragon meat" raised in the opposite empire, it is definitely the king of ingredients.
Because it is so rare, most ordinary working people have not even heard of it.
Because it was so rare, even Yu Lian, who had lived two lifetimes, had only eaten it three times in his previous life.
But, so what? Even the king of beef is a pie from the sky, and it is natural to imagine the evil spirit in it. But my own Andean black cattle were bought with money, and they are always...
You can’t just say it’s gone and it’s gone, right?
"So, where did my big Andean black cow go?" Yu Lian stared at Krel with a poker face that showed no emotion. If my cow is gone, you can do it too.
It looks like it's gone.
"The black cow is still there. It was just slaughtered early this morning and delivered here." Astri said quickly: "Your robot has already sent it to the cold storage."
As soon as he finished saying this, he saw a roller-skating cargo robot swaying out of the robot tunnel adjacent to the courtyard wall. The bloody smell of beef could still be faintly smelled on the shelves on its back. It seemed to be paying attention.
When he saw the situation in the yard, he paused for a moment, then stretched out a hydraulic foot and gave everyone a thumbs up.
"However, according to the tradition of the people on Earth, when you visit your home in the New Year, don't you need to bring a suitable gift?" Astri scratched his head: "This seems to be a New Year's greeting."
Astri pursed his lips and looked at the end of the courtyard with two thick phantom beasts that looked like pythons. An expectant expression appeared on his small round face: "Then, Krel
So he asked me to take the cow with him."
Seeing that Yu Lian was already looking at him, and his eyes were getting more and more dangerous, Claire quickly took a few steps back, raised the gift in his hand high above his head, and said loudly: "I, I am also following Yani's arrangement.
.This two-tailed cow was actually a gift from her.”
"Do you think I will believe it?" Yu Lian chuckled.
Although the white-haired fox lady is a bold and unscrupulous person, she is not the unobtrusive type like Krell.
Krell added loudly: "And she also said that this is not for you, but for Mr. Liu."
Yu Lian was slightly startled. He looked at his uncle and found that the other man had indeed shown an excited expression. He held his hands and looked along the neck, chest, abdomen, and back of the pair of tailed cows, and finally stopped at the plump buttocks and legs.
Then he scanned the two thick and long tails that looked like the bodies of pythons.
If the object he was looking at wasn't a cow-like creature with two tails and three pairs of horns, just the look in his eyes would be enough to make my aunt go crazy on the spot.
Well, if the person doing these things is a white-furred fox, then I think it’s not so out of line.
"It turns out that this is the legendary double-tailed cow! I have never dealt with such ingredients, I have only seen it a few times in your grandfather's notes." The uncle rubbed his hands excitedly, and his whole temperament suddenly changed.
He became excited. When the war-mad psyker prepared to challenge a giant beast in the virtual realm, that was all.
"Nephew, this is God's will!" he said.
Yu Lian sighed: "...This is not God's will, but someone's level of giving gifts has reached the realm of transformation."
"Ah hahaha, I have nothing to do with that. I am only responsible for receiving gifts, and it is you who are responsible for returning favors. Thirty years ago, I saw a father respecting his son, and thirty years later, I see a son respecting his father. I can be considered a favor to you.
The light, right? Xiao Yulian."
Come on. My uncle has already talked about this, so Yu Lian still has to object? What's more, he is actually starting to look forward to the follow-up. If he is in a food-themed movie, maybe he can pass the cooking side
Twin-tailed ox, my uncle's cooking skills are not as good as Dacheng's, he is at the pinnacle of achievement!
"The side dishes and condiments I prepared today..."
"It can be used. Although this thing is claimed to be some kind of phantom beast, it is still beef after all. Haha, if it is replaced by dragon meat from the empire, it will have to be prepared again." The uncle pondered for a moment: "It's just, your grandpa's
It is said in the notes that this kind of double-tailed cow cannot be solved by ordinary swords. The last time he dealt with the double-tailed cow, the person who helped him was Master Lan!"
Yu Lian took out Linguang, and then thought that this was the weapon that the emperor used when he was young. It was not respectful, so he waved to Krell: "Bring me a lightsaber."
The lightsaber that President Nicita gave to Yu Lian before, he had already given it to Feifei. No way, Yu Lian now has Lin Guang, the "Infinity Gauntlet", Dawn, and the lightsaber.
A Noble Phantasm that is too "basic for the general public" is indeed of little use.
However, even if it is a popular basic Noble Phantasm, it is still a Noble Phantasm, but in Yu Lian's tone, it is like buying a kitchen knife. However, what is even more paradoxical is that Krel actually subconsciously gestured
With a clear gesture, he also said: "Don't worry, it will be delivered in half an hour at most."
Yu Lian then nodded with satisfaction and said, "Also, since you two are here, come and help."
Astri scratched his head in distress. It is said that the difficulty of the double-tailed cow, the king of food ingredients of the phantom beast species, is not only cooking, but also slaughtering and decomposing. He was not born in the Ainol family, and he has been pampered since he was a child, but he has not yet really
Having done this kind of work, it’s not that he doesn’t want to do it, but he is worried that if he can’t do it well, it will damage the ingredients and affect subsequent cooking. You know, as a normal little fat guy, he is looking forward to the craftsmanship of the legendary “Food Immortal”
.
Just as he was hesitating, Claire Belmont had already thrown away his coat, rolled up his sleeves, and followed menacingly. He still looked like a dog that had suffered a Pavlovian reaction... Oh no, he was still a dog.
A well-trained worker. After all, he had screwed screws in the factory, and the laborer's genes were injected into his body.
However, at this moment, Babalu, the leader of the Lumina workers who has actually worked in the factory for ten years and is now an international student in the Department of Philosophy at Ocean University, is holding a package with his four arms, one on the left and one on the right.
Walking at a brisk pace on the streets of the sea city.
The Alliance is a country of multi-racial "co-prosperity", and more than half of the pedestrians on the streets of the sea city are not human. But despite this, Babaru is more than two meters tall, has four thick forelimbs, and a long
With an oval head covered with jet black carapace, he is considered a big man among Lumina, and his rate of turning heads is quite high.
There is no way, this kind of large beetle looks like a fighting race with extraordinary courage. It seems that it can break the skull of ordinary people with its small fists. It looks quite dangerous.
So, in just half an hour of walking, he had been stopped three times by patrol police and robots. When he was about to cross the bridge between the main city and the university town, the inspecting police even asked him to open his arms.
Come check the two packages.
"These are wood carvings made from leftover materials from the logging camp where I work, and this one is spicy smoked fish made from large yellow sheep croaker brought back from the fishing ground. It is a New Year gift I brought." Babalu explained to the police.
road.
This worker leader, who had brought workers' sons and capitalist thugs, fought pirates, and cultists with real swords and guns, now wore a patient smile and opened the package under the instructions of the police, revealing a very ethnic
The characteristic columnar wood carving. Then, he pretended to be slow and took out his wallet and took out his passport. He also took out the student ID card of Hongshan University.
The policeman immediately stood in awe and signaled to let him go. At the same time, he helped Babalu tie up the package again and said: "I'm really, really sorry. I really never thought that you would be a top student at Red Mountain University...
…”
Those who can study in this university are either truly elite academics, or they must have a background. Who knows whether they will be successful after graduation, but they are not something patrol policemen can mess with.
"Don't mind. I actually don't look like an intellectual." Babalu picked up his huge parcel with two hands, handed the policeman a tissue to wipe sweat with one hand, and wiped his sweat with the other hand.
He showed a thumbs up: "But I'm proud!"
The policeman didn't know whether the other party was joking with him or sarcastic, but he couldn't feel any malice, so he could only give him a stiff smile.
Babalu just held the gift he made by himself and continued walking - the reason why he did not take the rail transit was because the spicy smoked fish he made by himself had some smell, which would still affect other people in a closed space.
human.
Although Babalu looks like a ferocious large longhorned beetle, and even in the league, talent scouts here have sent him business cards more than once asking if he wants to play a villain, but he still believes that he is a gentle, honest and upright person.
Good guy, this is certified by the "Captain".
However, even though he had to walk, and even though there were a lot of incidents that happened just now, it didn't affect his good mood to attend the New Year's banquet at all.
As he moved forward, he even hummed a tune from his hometown. Of course, coupled with the rough tone unique to the Rumina people, it somehow had the flavor of a war song, which immediately attracted more people to come back, including several
security patrol aircraft
Of course, these pigeon-sized drones were originally patrolling inside the university town. They could access the databases of various universities. They should have quickly retrieved Babalu's identity information, and did not chase after Rumina.
The young man stopped for inspection. However, they still followed carefully.
Of course, Babalu felt the presence of these police robots, and they were not prepared to hide it. This young worker leader, who personally slashed the cultists with a knife, still had no trouble in his heart. He always felt that if he came to the alliance to study, what he learned was still good.
The "Captain" personally selected the philosophy for himself. He has not learned other things, but his self-cultivation has really grown a lot visible to the naked eye.
Then, as he was approaching the intersection of the pedestrian street, he unexpectedly saw a familiar figure,
This is a short and stocky Lothar, with big ears that look like flesh wings, and also wears a carapace. At first glance, this race seems to be a labor race that is quite suitable for working on the assembly line in a factory or digging into mountains for mining. Now it can
It is not easy to combine the famous "terrorist" race in the Alliance.
If it were in the central city of Haidu, as long as this upright Lotharian appeared in important areas such as Poseidon Square or Beacon Street, he would definitely be targeted by multiple police officers and robots. However, in University Town, they
The situation is relatively easy, and there are also a small number of Lothar students studying in major universities.
This Lothar man, who has the same black and shiny carapace as Babalu, is sitting at the entrance of a cafe on the street, holding a drink in his hand in a daze. Perhaps it is because the Lumina youth is too large and has too strong aura.
It quickly attracted his attention.
"Mr. Dinduba." Babalu said in a helpless tone: "I told you, I don't act in movies."
This Mr. Tindoba is a well-known artist manager and the most persistent among the talent scouts who want to recruit Babalu to play the role of a movie villain.
To be honest, it is actually quite inspiring that a Lotharian can successfully make a living in the sea city, the cultural capital of the alliance, and even the movie capital of the universe, and even run a small company. After several contacts,
Babalu also had some respect for Mr. Dinduba. If Babalu hadn't really had no intention of acting in a movie, maybe he would have really followed suit.
However, after the Lothar man was startled for a moment, his sight had caught the police drone following Babaru, and he stood up in a panic and said: "I, I was just passing by. Really just passing by.
…”
Before Babalu could answer, he had already left his seat and wanted to walk away, but he seemed to think it would be suspicious to just leave like that, so he stopped and explained seriously: "I'm not passing by, I'm here.
This is where we discover new talents. Nowadays, film companies prefer college students to play small roles because they are cheap and smart. Isn’t that how I discovered you last time? Yes, that’s it.”
Kawen is still very stuck in Kawen. Although these chapters are necessary daily transition chapters, I always feel that they are written completely without feeling.
Am I really suffering from brain fog? I won’t become a useless cat in the future, right?
