He never imagined that he would meet a lost prince and sell skewers for a living.
Seeing Luo Chaoxi looking at him, the prince of the Western Regions explained to Luo Chaoxi again.
His name is Musa, and he is the prince of the Qapqala country. He left Qapqala to travel to other countries two months ago. On the way, he was chased by the bandits in his country, and he was separated from his subordinates. Only himself and the gold and silver jewels he carried were left in the city of Kangzhou.
The prince felt that he should live in exile and use a craft to support himself, so he starts a barbecue that everyone in his family knew.
Lamb skewers!
But everyone in the clan can do it, it doesn't mean that a prince, Musa, who does not touch the spring water with his ten fingers, can also do it. The grilled lamb skewers are unpalatable to death (Not pleasing to the taste), and no one buys it at all, but Musa is not discouraged.
(T/N: "Ten fingers do not touch the spring water" is a common saying which means that in March, the weather is very cold, so you don't have to wash your clothes yourself. It is a metaphor for a person who has a good family and does not need to do laundry or housework by himself. Usually, it refers to people who are pampered and pampered, and mostly refers to women from wealthy families.)
Even if the king's subordinates come over, he is unwilling to give up the skewer business and return to the country to inherit the throne
But there is no way.
His father, the king of Qapqala, is seriously ill. If Musa does not go back, then their country will be occupied by others. For the sake of the country and his father, Musa must go back no matter what.
The only thing that made him reluctant was his skewer stall.
Luo Chaoxi's expression gradually calmed down and kept Lou Chaoxi a polite smile.
He really can't understand the feeling of this rich second generation coming out to experience life!
"I really want to try the feeling of being full of customers before I leave." Musa sighed, "I've stayed here for so long, and I've never felt it before!"
Luo Chaoxi glanced at the other party's barbecue grill and tried to ask casually, "Need my help? I recently got a sauce that would be delicious on the meat."
Although the Orleans-flavored version needs to be marinated in advance, under that condition, a layer of coating on the outside is barely usable.
Musa's beautiful sky blue eyes lit up and grabbed Luo Chaoxi's hand, and asked excitedly: "Really!"
Luo Chaoxi nodded hesitantly: "I think so, but I'm not very sure if the people here will like the taste."
"No matter how bad it is, it can't be worse than what I made!" Musa is quite self-aware: "Most of the people who come to buy my skewers are girls who prefer my face to my skewers"
"Then, let me try?" Luo Chaoxi asked tentatively.
Musa nods heavily! He pointed to the lamb skewers that he had not yet used and said to Luo Chaoxi: "You've got half the turnover today."
Lo Chaoxi opened the System Store and found that the 5-liter barrel of Orleans sauce was enough for a week or so for a barbecue restaurant. The sauce given by the system before is a pound of sauce, which is enough to eat at home, but of course not enough if it is used for sale.
It's not that there are no other packages, it's just that this 5-liter package is the most cost-effective, with a total of 500 yuan.
But now Luo Chaoxi's money does not allow him to spend 500 yuan on such a big bucket of sauce but instead spends 120 yuan on a bucket of 1 liter of sauce.
"I'm going to get the sauce. You wait for me here. I need some chicken wings or something."
"Chicken wings? The butcher shop over there seems to sell them. If you bring food, it can be exchanged." Musa was very cheerful.
He doesn't care if he makes money or not, he just likes the feeling of setting up a stall and making skewers.
He went back to the shop, exchanged a bucket of sauce for bamboo tube packaging, and exchanged 200 processed chicken wings from the system. Only ten minutes later Chaoxi return to Musa.
Musa has already started skewering meat. He sat on one side of the pony, his long legs are curled up, he looks a little pitiful, and the barbecue in front of him is also burning with the most expensive coals of snow and smoke.
Isn't this... the rich second generation came out to experience life?
Musa's original price was 10 cents, and that amount of money was not enough for a lamb, let alone the precious snow silver charcoal.
Now Kangzhou City lamb costs about 100 yuan per pound, and the price will fluctuate. The price of snow silver charcoal is more expensive than lamb, and the amount consumed is extremely considerable.
I don't know how much Musa has lost during this period of skewering, but it must be a lot anyway.
Musa is also famous around here.
After all, a good-looking Westerner selling skewers is quite eye-catching. Of course, what is famous is the unpalatable skewers he sells that completely betray his identity as a westerner.
Barbecue can be regarded as a skill engraved in the DNA of Westerners, and it is also a skill that Musa can make barbecue so unpalatable.
Didn't Musa notice that there was no other food near his skewers stall? There is only one sugar water stand.
The vendor's conscience exploded, waiting for the little girls who had been bewitched by Musa's face to finish eating and then buy a bowl of sugar water to rinse their mouths.
But today is different. There is another very delicate young man next to this Westerner. He looks familiar, but if he looks carefully, he'll think he has never seen him before.
This is the credit of the system.
The Luo Chaoxi in this world is not like this. It is because the system blurs the memories of the people related to Luo Chaoxi so that other people will automatically think that Luo Chaoxi is what it looks like now.
What are these two doing together?
Luo Chaoxi found another Mazza(folding stool) to sit down, put the chicken wings and sauces he brought aside, took out another wooden basin, poured half of the lamb and chicken wings into it, poured the finished sauce, and made chicken wings and lamb. After ordering a set of chicken wings to ensure that the sauce can be soaked into the meat. Lou Chaoxi took out the bamboo stick and passed it through the lamb and chicken wings.
"It smells strange."Musa sniffed the smell and frowned: "Why does it feel a little spicy... and a little salty? "
"You can taste the first batch. There's a little pepper in it, " said Lou Chaoxi.
But pepper is very expensive and very rare at this time, the price is very expensive, and Luo Tide can't get rid of it alone.
It can be used as a publicity stunt...
Hope it would work.
"Pepper... I seem to have it." Musa lowered his head and thought for a while, and took out a packet from his arms, "It seems to be able to exchange money, but I don't think it is necessary."
Luo Chaoxi didn't know what to say. He handed the package of peppers back: "This is too precious."
"It doesn't matter, we have a lot of them in our country."
"But there are few countries in this country." Luo Chaoxi said helplessly, he put the skewers on the burning stove, Then he poked the stove to make the fire a little bigger.
The lamb skewers and chicken wings were licked by the fire and gradually changed their color. Luo Chaoxi turned the skewers over to heat them evenly.
Suddenly, a scent wafted out from here.
Originally, Musa was very eye-catching, but now there are more people, and they have made red meat that is completely different from other people's skewers. The taste of the sauce is very strange, and it's a bit irritating to the nose.
Sure enough, it's not a normal person who can make things with that Westerner.
However, as the skewers and chicken wings were roasted a little at a high temperature on the griller, the pungent taste of the sauce gradually melted into the meat, and the fragrance hidden under the spicy taste burst out completely. The strange and enticing scent of the yummy is like a small hook, and it can't help but dig into the nose. Many people who are planning to go to the restaurant just walk this way unconsciously, and surround the two people.
It's meal time, and everyone is preparing to eat.
Strictly speaking, the skewers should be eaten after 8 or 9 in the evening, with beer, and some peanuts and beans, but who makes it impossible now?
Luo Chaoxi was surrounded by people without any pressure.
A social bully will not feel ashamed of being watched but will become more confident.
Perhaps the process is--
I'm awesome. I'm awesome. If I hadn't done it, they wouldn't even looked at me.
The system was puzzled by Luo Chaoxi's mental journey, but it didn't say anything, and silently watched its host do things.
Are you trying to advertise your sauce?
I don't think it's impossible.
Finally, the first skewer was grilled, and Luo Chaoxi left two skewers of grilled wings and five skewers of mutton for Musa, and then asked the onlookers outside: "Want to come? Today's new specials! Lamb skewers are 30 cents. Skewer! 28-cent pieces of chicken wings! There is pepper in the sauce!"
Mainly because lamb is much more expensive than chicken now, and the string of meat they wear is as big as a thumb, more than 10 centimeters. Modern people will cry at the sight of such solid ingredients
Musa took off half of the meat in one bite.
His mouth was full of meat, and his pretty face was deformed a little by the meat, but the handsome guy can eat delicious food no matter how ugly he was, not to mention that Musa looks delicious.
Everyone was ready to move, but they were not bewitched by Musa's face, but when they ate Musa's food before... Well, some people almost vomited and collapsed, leaving them with a very deep shadow on their minds, now seeing that Musa's food was delicious, they didn't dare buy it and looked at the two of them hesitantly.
———
When they came out of the restaurant and ate delicious food, for some reason, they always felt that they didn't have the appetizers called "instant noodles" that they ate in the afternoon.
Probably because of novelty.
These people digested quickly, they ate an extra meal at 4 p.m. Less than an hour later, they felt that they could eat again, and went to the restaurant with other people in the merchant who had not eaten dinner. They had enough to eat and drink.
As a result, they ate something in the afternoon and then ate another meal in the evening. The few people who ate an extra meal were a little overwhelmed, so they simply walked back, but they didn't go long before they smelled something they had never smelled before. Had a very irritating smell that made people drool.
It's not like the instant noodles they ate in the afternoon, nor is it any flavor they have ever eaten, but Kansai thinks that this flavor may be made by the very tender little white-faced boss.
Several people who had eaten glanced at each other and searched the street, and soon discovered the source of the smell.
There are quite a few people here, even some young masters and young ladies who are rich in gorgeous clothes. There are a lot of people, and they can't see what is inside.
But this one smells really good.
Kansai and the others didn't care about this, they just felt the smell was fragrant and wanted to eat it. They finally walked into the crowd. Sure enough, they saw the people behind the stall.
"It's you, boss!" Kansai and his men stepped forward and twitched their mouths at the meat that was still roasting, but out of trust in Luo Chaoxi and instant noodles in the afternoon, Kansai decided to forgive.
"Captain Guan." Luo Chaoxi was still grilling, and when he was about to say that the first string was half price, Kansai appeared.
This person is the captain of the merchant and naturally has money in his hand. He also ordered instant noodles from Luo Chaoxi.
"What delicious food did you make?"
"Barbecue with secret sauce and chicken wings, you can call it Orleans Barbecue."
"Orléans?" Kansai had never heard of the name, but he got closer and smelled even better. "How much is it?"
"Orleans?" Kansai had never heard of the name. He was close and smelled it even better. "How much is it?"
"There is an event now, 30 cents for lamb skewers and 28 cents for chicken wings."
"It's quite cheap." Seeing so much meat on skewers, Kansai felt that it was quite affordable. And the smell is also very appealing.
It's meat, but it's still something you need to save money to buy, except that Lou Chaoxi and Musa bought enough skewers to sell about the size of four or five thumbs.
"Do you want one?"
"Is this the one that Boss Guan said was delicious?"
"We wanted to eat it too, but you didn't bring it back!"
"Eat! I'll have two!"
The team members huddled together, laughing. They had a lot of opinions about Kansai not bringing instant noodles back for them to eat, and now they were just in time to kill Kansai!
"Then... 400 skewers of lamb and 200 skewers of chicken wings." Guan directly packed the rest of Lou Chaoxi's inventory.
Luo Chaoxi was a little embarrassed: "There are only 98 strings of chicken wings left."
The two missing strings are still in Musa's mouth.
"Then I'll have the wings, and I'll change the rest to lamb skewers !"Kansai waved his hand.
Seeing that Musa's mouth was full of oil, Luo Chaoxi pulled him up and stuffed him with the bamboo skewers that had not yet been skewered: "Start working!"
