Chapter 5 - New opportunities

Failure. Fang was disappointed and therefore did not go on the following expedition. And Shir-Ali decided to go with his cousin.

The finds from the last expedition did not even cover the cost of gasoline. The drone broke down and cost $ 1,370. Fang swore all the way. Well, not always find gold ?!

This time Dara was looking for old or forgotten recipes. For them, too, you could get some good money! In Britain and the United States, there were already new training courses on archaeological cooking and the history of the study and development of cooking from different eras. The scientific communities gave large grants for these problems.

The collected data on forgotten recipes from the 19th and 20th centuries were already valuable for travel agencies and restaurants. One old recipe cost $ 50. For a recipe from the 18th-17th centuries for $ 100. If they could still find old fruits that could be preserved in distant villages in the mountains and steppes, they could get 1000 dollars for it!

If they managed to prepare an authentic recipe with 17th or 19th-century products, then two restaurants in the capital would pay $ 5,000 for each recipe!

This is very good money for a country where the average salary in the capital is $ 250!

Fang was not impressed by these amounts, he was not interested in looking for old recipes, he specialized more in coins and jewelry. But Shir-Ali, on the contrary, as a chef was interested in the development of local cuisine.

Dara just wanted to make some money and to complete the quest from the system he had to plant several new plants on his farm. Taking topographic maps in hand, they looked around the country ... and chose a small town on the border of a settled and nomadic territory.
