Just as Laura put the fish into her mouth, she felt a very special flavor. She had never tasted this flavor before. She felt that her entire mouth was filled with this flavor. Moreover, this flavor was quickly spreading.
Delicious, an unprecedented delicacy. Laura was a person who loved to eat. It can be said that she had eaten all of the famous delicacies in the continent. However, she had never eaten anything like Zhao Hai's food. Laura felt that every time she went to Zhao Hai's place, she would always be pleasantly surprised.
Zhao Hai looked at Laura's appearance and couldn't help but smile. Chinese delicacies weren't something that ordinary people could resist. Although the Ark Continent's seasoning wasn't as good as Earth's, there were still some substitutes. The braised fish tasted very good.
After some time, Laura put down her fork and turned to Zhao Hai and said, "I ask Mister to pass down the recipe for this dish to me. This is the most delicious dish I've ever tasted."
Zhao Hai smiled and said, "It's just a small matter. When you leave, I'll prepare it for you. I'll also bring some of our specialty vegetables so that you can taste them."
Laura smiled and said, "Then I won't be polite with Mister. Although Mister's dishes are good, there isn't any good wine. The next time I come, I'll bring some good wine for Mister."
Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, "Alright, but I still hope that Miss Laura can give me some wine-making methods. It would be best if it's a secret recipe. The more the better."
Laura stared, then she turned to Zhao Hai and said, "Mister, do you still want to open a winery? This seems to be more difficult. "
Zhao Hai smiled and said, "I only have one idea. My territory has mountains, and I can only grow some oil fruit trees. It's a pity. I want to see if I can grow some fruit trees that can make wine. This way, the income would be much better than the oil fruit trees."
Laura knit her brows and said, "Mister, I'm afraid that's not possible. You should know that the land suitable for oil fruit trees isn't very good. Such a land wouldn't be able to grow good fruit trees."
Zhao Hai smiled and said, "I'm just giving it a try. In any case, it's something that I grew myself. My main business doesn't depend on those fruit trees. If it succeeds, I'll be happy. If it doesn't, I won't lose much."
Laura nodded and said, "Alright, that won't be a problem. I can also give mister some brewing tools. As long as mister is willing, you can brew whenever you want."
Zhao Hai smiled and said, "That's great. When Miss Laura comes later, you might be able to drink our own wine. Come, Miss Laura, don't be polite."
Laura was very happy to eat this meal. Not only because of the delicious food, but also because her cooperation with Zhao Hai had deepened. Similarly, her relationship with Zhao Hai had become more intimate.
After eating lunch, Laura left. Naturally, Zhao Hai had already prepared the radishes for her while they were eating. The gifts were also prepared. After the meal, Laura was sent off.
After sending off Laura, Zhao Hai and the others returned to the living room. Green looked at Zhao Hai and said, "Young Master, should we start raising the blue-eyed rabbits in the mine? In any case, in two days, Miss Laura will bring the tools and barrels for oil extraction. Then we can officially start extracting oil. When the time comes, we'll have the oil residue. For the next two days, feeding radish leaves shouldn't be a problem. "
Zhao Hai nodded and said, "Right now, we have a lot of rabbits in our hands. Letting them out and feeding them radish leaves should be enough. Tomorrow, we'll have Ann use the mill and roller to process the corn. Rice bran can also become good fodder."
Green nodded and looked at Zhao Hai. "Young Master, you told Miss Laura to come to Stony Mountain if a Rank Nine expert wants to deal with her. Do you want her to enter the Space? Do you really think she can do it? "
Zhao Hai understood what Green meant. The Space was their most important secret. It was also their biggest reliance. If outsiders knew about the Space, then it would be troublesome.
Zhao Hai smiled and said to Green, "Do you think Laura will encounter a Rank Nine expert? Even if those Rank Nine experts were idle, they wouldn't deal with Laura. Laura doesn't have that much value. "
Green agreed with Zhao Hai's statement, but he still frowned and said, "There isn't one now, but I'm afraid there will be in the future. Laura and Young Master's cooperation will certainly make a lot of money. When the time comes, maybe a Rank Nine expert will come to deal with her."
Zhao Hai smiled and said, "When that time comes, I'm afraid Laura can be trusted. Don't worry, Grandpa Green, there won't be any problems."
Green nodded and then asked Zhao Hai, "Young Master, why do you need so many rabbit skins? What's the use of them? "
Zhao Hai smiled and said, "These rabbit skins are actually for the future. In the Stony Wasteland, the temperature won't be that high. What will the slaves do in the winter? Even if the doors and windows are closed, they still can't go out, right? When they go out, won't they still freeze? I want so many rabbit skins for them to use during the winter. "
When Green heard Zhao Hai, he couldn't help but pat his head and said, "I really forgot about this matter. Yes, it should be prepared. This way, people won't get frostbitten."
Zhao Hai smiled faintly. At this time, his expression suddenly changed. He turned to Green and said, "Grandpa Green, immediately call Grandma Merlin and Meg. There's an accident at Fort Iron Mountain." When Green heard Zhao Hai, his expression changed and he immediately went out to call for them.
At this time, Laura was thinking about Zhao Hai. She was now even more curious about Zhao Hai. She really couldn't figure out what identity Zhao Hai had.
To say that Zhao Hai was a great aristocrat was a bit different. He didn't have as many rules as the great aristocrats. He also didn't have the means to get the seeds of the great aristocrats' magic vegetables. If he wasn't a great aristocrat, then why did he have an ancient transmission scroll in his hand? This was really puzzling.
The most important thing was that Zhao Hai seemed to be short on money. Although Zhao Hai said that he wanted Green to ride the scaled wildebeest to Casa City, it was undeniable that besides the scaled wildebeest and some undead, Zhao Hai didn't have any other magic beasts to ride.
Moreover, the things that Zhao Hai produced were all low-end products from the continent. His daily life was very simple. So far, he only had a few servants. All of this showed that Zhao Hai's economic strength wasn't good.
But in some aspects, he was very generous. Not to mention, the magic vegetables that Zhao Hai gave her were worth a lot of money. Although this money was just a small amount in Laura's eyes, she also knew that in the eyes of ordinary people, this money was a lot.
It can be said that in Laura's eyes, Zhao Hai was a combination of contradictions. Whether it was his identity or his style of doing things, they were all contradictory. This made Laura more and more curious about Zhao Hai.
However, Laura made up her mind that she must cooperate with Zhao Hai. It wasn't for benefits, nor was it for Zhao Hai's strength, but for Zhao Hai's kindness.
Laura could see that Zhao Hai was in need of money, but he would rather make money by himself than take advantage of her. Laura respected such a person. In addition, Zhao Hai had shown her kindness, so she was willing to cooperate with him.
Nier sat beside Laura. Looking at Laura's appearance, she couldn't help but snicker. "Young Lady, are you thinking about Mr. Zhao Hai? Grandpa Kun Zhengzheng couldn't have been right, could he? Did you really fall in love with Mr. Zhao Hai? "
Laura stared blankly for a moment, then she stared at Nier and said, "Silly girl, don't talk nonsense. I haven't even seen Mr. Zhao's face yet. I only admire Mr. Zhao. Looking at Mr. Zhao's appearance, I can see that he has a newly established territory and is in need of money. If it were an ordinary person, in this case, they wouldn't choose to cooperate with us. After all, he saved our lives, so he could get more from us. But Mr. Zhao didn't. Not only did he not take advantage of us, but all of our cooperation is a win-win situation. I really admire Mr. Zhao for this."
Nier looked at Laura, puzzled. "Young Lady, why do you say that? Didn't Mr. Zhao accept the magic robe and magic staff you gave him? "
Laura stared at Nier and said, "Little girl, what do you know? The reason why Mister accepted those things was to make us feel that we don't owe him any favors. This way, he would be willing to cooperate with us. Otherwise, do you really think that Mister would accept those two things? Not to mention, Mr. Zhao's Iron Book of Sealing Magic was not cheaper than those two things. "
When Nier heard what Laura said, she looked puzzled. "So it was like this. I was wondering why Mr. Zhao accepted the magic robe and magic staff so quickly."
Laura looked at Nier's appearance and smiled faintly. "Silly girl, now you know that Mr. Zhao is absolutely a gentleman. Although he doesn't have the overbearing arrogance of those children of large clans, he has a lofty and unyielding character. It's amazing."
Little stars appeared in Nier's eyes as she muttered, "It's amazing. I didn't realize that Mr. Zhao turned out to be such a person. Mr. Zhao is really amazing."
Laura looked at Nier's appearance and couldn't help but smile. The reason Laura liked Nier so much was because of Nier's purity. She didn't have a trace of distracting thoughts. It was as if all the filth in the world was blocked by Nier. She was like a clear lake, allowing you to see the bottom with a single glance.
Laura gently touched Nier's head, but her eyes were looking in the direction of Stony Mountain. She didn't know when, but the figure covered by the Black Magic Robe had left a mark in her heart.
