But I just don't want to ask them for advice... Doesn't this mean that I have surrendered to the devil like wine?

After thinking about it, the little girl had no choice but to focus on Xia Yu who let herself taste the non-alcoholic beer.

Since Mr. Xia Yu, who has a business relationship with his father, knows so much, he must also know some other ways to make similar drinks, right?But the problem is that the last time I left him with a bad impression, Mr. Xia Yu, will he really consider giving him an idea...

Hmm... It seems that he can only admit his mistake and apologize first, and then explain his purpose. If he still refuses to forgive himself, then try to let him touch his tail?

Diona, who had prepared for the worst, asked the members of the West Wind Knights about the location of Xia Yu's residence, but then fell into another predicament because of the news from Noelle.

Xia Yu invited Xian Dianyi to Liyue because he wanted to see it!

There are still nearly three months before the invitation to Xiandianyi, plus the long road back and forth, oh, this miserable life will continue for several months...

Xia Yu is back!Diona, who had persisted for more than three months, was shocked when she heard the guests in the tavern talking about the news of Xia Yu, and ended the day's work early to recharge her energy and rest. Early in the morning, Diona, who had finished her breakfast at the deer hunter, walked towards Xia Yu's courtyard again with a little nervousness.

uh... good smell... are they having breakfast?And these flavors... There are Jue Yun peppers, lemons, small lamp grass, snapdragons, dudu lotus, mint... With the excellent blood talent of the Katzlein family, Diona accurately distinguished each one. The smell of raw materials mixed in the aroma.

Such a complex taste...what is this doing?And the thing that is the main flavor is really familiar to me, it is the smell of fish!

Is it really okay to cook fish with so much stuff?Xia Yu, he doesn't have the ability to make everything delicious like himself... Diona, who was worried about the people in the room, couldn't help frowning. After a while, the door was opened by a black-haired girl in a maid's uniform.

"Hello, may I ask who you are?" Mona, who saw Diona for the first time, was puzzled by the visit of the kitten, who seemed to be about eleven or twelve years old.

"Hello, this maid sister, I'm here to look for Xia Yu, is Xia Yu in the room now?" Because of her nervousness, the little guy's tail swiped slightly left and right under her unconscious control.

"Looking for me?" It seemed that he heard the sound from the door, and Xia Yu, who was a little confused, came to the door of the room.

This...isn't this Mr. Duraff's daughter Diona?Xia Yu's visit gave Xia Yu a little headache.

There won't be any trouble this time...

Chapter 110 Six Selling Daliba Handmade Kvass to Maomao

How is your breakfast?Who exactly is a person of Katz Rhine blood?Diona, who walked into the room under the leadership of Mona, was shocked.

Eight black-backed perch were neatly placed on the dining table. The fish were cooked in a similar way, as if they were boiled and then drizzled with different sauces. Although they were boiled in water, the cut from the fish was like white jade with mutton fat. It can be seen from the crystal clear fish meat, the control of the heat of the fish man can be said to be perfect.

I only smelled the aroma of various seasonings outside the house just now, but now that I have witnessed the fish on the table with my own eyes, the temptation of the food is even greater.

The bright red Jueyun pepper powder with a slightly sour smell should be fermented almost like the production of wine, but the smell is not unpleasant, and the faint sour aroma is more dry than the fresh Jueyun pepper. Spicy is softer in smell.

Tears of despair flowed down the corners of his mouth.

There is also a boiled fish with a thick white sauce paired with dudu lotus and an unknown green spice on the side. The emerald green color of the spice and a little yellowish dudu lotus in the white, in addition to the taste of fish, seem to be With the smell of dried shrimp, is this greedy for cats of Katz Rhine origin?

And... and... After browsing every fish and meat with great greed, Diona, who was in a state of confusion, tried to find other types of dishes on the table, but...

In addition to the fish, there are only two plates of vegetable stir-fried vegetables, plus bread or white rice as the staple food, and it's gone!

Gone! !It is too much to eat so much fish in the morning!

The food on the table made Diona very jealous. The tail, which had been carefully groomed and wore her favorite little bell in the early morning, was now fried like a squirrel's tail.Suddenly, the little cat with a bit of sparkling color in her eyes made Xia Yu feel extremely puzzled.

I haven't said a word yet, and I haven't met Diona since the last incident. How did this offend this little ancestor?

"That... We're still having breakfast here, why don't we come and have a taste?" Xia Yu, who tried to invite the kitten, found that although the little guy still had a fierce expression on his face, the cat above his head The ear wobbled slightly, very honestly.

It turned out to be so, it was thirsty.After noticing the little guy's swallowing action, Xia Yu said with a smile: "It just so happens that I am also trying out fish dishes today for everyone to evaluate. Why don't you come and give some opinions, Diona, how about you?" The little guy who nodded, Xia Yu heaved a sigh of relief.

Finally solved.

————————————————————————

Twenty minutes later, Diona sat on the sofa with a satisfied expression on her face. After relaxing, the little guy with half-closed eyes uttered a raving sound of 'Wurr, Hurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.

good to eat!It's really delicious~

The first is the fish itself. The tender and earthy smell of the fish is completely removed, leaving only the deliciousness of the fish itself, the light salty taste and the eight different kinds of sauces, even if it is all boiled. The fish doesn't feel greasy at all.

Taking advantage of the time when the adults were cleaning up the dishes and cleaning the table, Keli tiptoed to the front of Deona, looking at Deona lying on the sofa with a lazy look, the little guy's eyes were full of surprise. .

I have never seen Sister Diona show such an expression before!

"Hey~ Sister Diona, how does brother Xia Yu's food taste good? Isn't it delicious?" She seemed to be showing off to Diona. All the fish feasts are made by her.

"I thought that Uncle Dulav supplied Brother Xia Yu with all kinds of meat produced in Qingquan Town. Sister Diona and Brother Xia Yu have already gotten to know each other well. Haven't you met a few times?"

Keli's innocent and innocent tone made Diona, who was still satisfied, inexplicably saddened.

Yes... Dad and Xia Yu have a business relationship, and he also happens to be lurking in Mond's wine business to learn all kinds of relevant information. Compared with Ke Li, who likes bombs and adventures, he clearly has such a situation. With many unique advantages, why is the relationship between Xia Yu and Keli better than their own?

Hmm... It must be caused by the various wine industries in Mond!Yes, it must be so!

If it weren't for the alcohol, the most powerful father would not be in such a state of nonsense after drinking, and he would not try to sneak into Mond's bar to become a bartender.

If things develop like this, compared to the current situation, the relationship between myself and Xia Yu, who is still learning various hunting skills by my father's side, should be similar to the relationship between Keli and Xia Yu...

Therefore, the main culprit is Mond's wine industry, and it is imperative to completely destroy it!Thinking of this, Diona became more convinced of her opinion.

"That's it, Keli, you should also know that I have been fighting with the Mond wine industry, right." Looking at Keli who nodded, Diona continued: "So, I need a kind of A drink that can compete with the Mond wine industry will completely destroy the Mond wine industry."

"The last time I met Xia Yu, the drink he made inspired me, so I always wanted to ask him to see if I could learn something, but he happened to go to Liyue, so I was learning about Xia Yu. I rushed over as soon as I returned to Mond."

Is that so?Listening to Diona talking about her dream again, Claire nodded her head in confusion.

I once mentioned to Sister Diona that I also wanted to join her plan to defeat the monster of the Mond Wine Industry, but was rejected by Sister Diona on the grounds that the bomb was too dangerous.Shouldn't we use weapons to defeat monsters?Why was Diona's sister saying it was a dangerous thing?

As a result, today's sister Diona said that what is needed to destroy the Mond wine industry is a new ingredient?For an enemy that can be defeated by drinks, it is no wonder that when she once proposed to use a bomb to help Sister Diona solve the problem, Sister Diona would immediately shake her head, and also said to herself that she wanted to defeat Mond Wine Industry in an upright manner, so she didn't need a bomb.

Now it seems that the special monster of the Mond Wine Industry should be similar to the fire slime, so Sister Diona politely refused herself, saying that she could not use bombs.

It seems that Brother Xia Yu, who can make Sister Diona take the initiative to come to the door for help, is really amazing!

When Keli was talking to Diona, Xia Yu returned to the living room after finishing the dishes. The two little guys in the chat caught Xia Yu's attention.

Perhaps also aware of her arrival, Keli, who rushed over, grabbed the corner of her clothes. "Brother Xia Yu, please help Sister Diona in the fight against the monster Mond Wine Industry!" Ke Li, who had said this without a head and a tail, made Xia Yu confused.

When did the Mond Wine Industry become a monster?Or is there some kind of monster whose name is pronounced exactly the same as 'Mond Brewery'?Xia Yu, who couldn't understand what happened, turned his eyes to Diona, whose face was a little red.Seeing the two of them staring at each other, Keli was full of pride after she was done.

Well, I helped sister Diona to convey her confusion to brother Xia Yu. Judging from the expression of brother Xia Yu, brother Xia Yu should have his own plan on how to solve this problem.With the help of Brother Xia Yu, Sister Diona's problem will definitely be solved!That way, you can go play first!

Thinking of this, Ke Li, who waved at the two of them, ran into the room and pulled up Little Doolin, who seemed to be still reminiscing about the taste of the whole fish feast. The little guy said to Xia Yu and Diona with a smile: " Brother Xia Yu, the difficulties encountered by Sister Diona are entirely up to you~" Afterwards, Ke Li, who was pulling Little Doolin, quickly ran out of the room and started today's adventure activities.

This... was all leaked by Keli!Diona was even more embarrassed by the tragic disruption by Claire.

"It's like this... I have something I want to ask Xia Yu for your reference." Perhaps because of the meal just now, Diona was much more relaxed than the nervousness when she entered the room. After stating my purpose, it became a lot easier.

"I want to make a special drink to compete with Mond's current variety of alcohol." Diona, who explained her thoughts, looked particularly serious. "In my expectation, this drink must have a certain taste similar to wine, but different from the current wine, beer or cocktails made of various drinks and original wine."

"Although my hands-on ability is extremely powerful because of the curse, I can't think of what kind of drink can I use to make the existing alcoholics in Mond complete the transfer of interest without adding the existing alcohol. So please!"

Diona, who pleaded with herself, was a bit beyond Xia Yu's expectations.

As a result, the Mond Wine Industry is not a homophonic monster at all, but is really the entire Mond's existing wine industry.

Judging from my existing information, except for the Cat Tail Tavern, the entire wine industry in the Mond area is monopolized by the Morning Sun Winery.The wine produced by oneself, similar to liquor and beer imported from other countries, is the lifeblood of the Mond wine industry.

It is not an easy thing to fight against such a behemoth, not to mention that Diona's goal is not even to replace it as a new industry leader, but to fundamentally overturn the existing wine industry. The idea is more or less fantastic.

However, after sorting out all the clues, I can understand why Diona thinks this way: because Diona has an alcoholic father.

There is a huge gap between the embarrassed appearance of people who drink too much and the image they maintain on weekdays. I am afraid that the reason why Diona hates Mond's wine industry so much is because his father, Mr. Durraff, before drinking. Compared with the huge difference in the image after drinking, the perfect father image in the little guy's mind was ruined by the drink.

In fact, even if this matter is left alone, there is no problem at all. After all, after a few years, when Diona grows up and understands more and becomes more sensible, this problem will be solved naturally.At that time, her past struggle with the Mond wine industry might become the dark history of the extremely powerful Diona.

But then again, it is impossible for me to explain this to her directly. At this stage, the little guy who is considered to be on the cusp of a bull's horn in a certain sense will never listen to any persuasion, and he will never offend people for no reason. to do.

And I happen to know that such a drink has the flavor of wine, but it is similar to boiling beer. After brewing, it only needs a little processing to get a fermented flavor with wine aroma, but the alcohol content is so low that it is almost negligible. drink.

"Diona, do you know where Mond sells hops?" Xia Yu asked Diona, making Kitten's face a little confused.

Although she wasn't sure what Xia Yu wanted to do, Diona still nodded, looking at Xia Yu's serious expression, Diona replied: "Yes, after all, this is what you need to brew beer. But Xia Yu, what do you want this for? Wouldn't it be beer if you use this to brew?"

"Don't worry, the drink you make is the same as the beer I told you about. Although there will be a certain amount of alcohol in the fermentation process, as long as it is processed, the final drink will become a kind of beverage with The flavor of the wine, but the actual alcohol content is so low that it is almost negligible." Xia Yu, who was introduced to Diona, seemed extra confident.

That's right, it was Kvass from a certain fighting nation in his original world.Russian-style kvass made from black malt generally have an extremely rich black color, like soy sauce.However, after it was spread to some areas bordering it in China, the production method of kvass has also changed to some extent.

After careful fermentation, the oil-free bread kneaded with hops used in ordinary beer fermentation is added. When baking, special fruit wood is used to give the bread a special baking aroma.Finally, the unique outer skin is hard, the inner is soft and fragrant, and the Daliba, which strengthens the aroma of flour yeast, wine, fruit wood and lactic acid, was born.

Although the kvass made using this improved Daliba is still relatively small in the audience, its diehard fans can be regarded as reaching a fanatical level.In addition, the process of de-alcoholization of Kvass is not too complicated, and it just becomes the best product that can meet the needs of Diona.

"We need to start with the fermentation of the dough, and then make the final ideal drink step by step." Xia Yu, who showed strong self-confidence, made Diona nodded subconsciously.

The last time I made beer, I did what Xia Yu said was right, so it shouldn't be a problem this time.

Chapter 110 Seventh

The literal translation of the word Lieba means bread, and the name of Lieba is actually quite simple and crude, that is, large bread.Therefore, Daliba does not refer to a particular type of bread, but a way of calling a bread series.

Although it is said that ordinary large bread can be used to make kvass, you can get a relatively good fermented drink, but since it is specially prepared for making kvass and not directly eaten, some minor adjustments can be made in the production of bread.Thinking of the bread-making procedure, Xia Yu couldn't help but feel a little troubled.

If it is in the original world, even if there is no fermented seed, the initial fermentation process can be completed by directly selecting the appropriate variety of high-quality flour and yeast. Even if it is not the most professional baker, refer to the information on the Internet to try it out. After many times and summarizing experience, the most basic bread made, even if it is not delicious, can at least reach the passing line.

But now there is a fatal problem, that is, you can't buy yeast produced in standard packaging.In this case, the cultivation of yeast seeds for bread fermentation is extremely important, and it takes a long time to cultivate from pure natural yeast seeds.

Considering the time factor, Xia Yu had no choice but to turn his attention to the bakery in Mond City.But... bakery owners generally don't give up their own fermented seeds.

The quality of fermented seeds is directly related to the quality of the final bread. Therefore, fermented seeds are the lifeblood of the bakery. It can be said that it is amazing to ask the owners of the bakery to give some fermented seeds. Even more difficult.

If it really doesn't work, then I can only ask the owners of the bakery to make some according to their own requirements. After all, I am not a professional pastry chef.

Thinking of this, Xia Yu turned his eyes to Diona, who seemed eager to try, and then asked, "Diona, do you have a familiar baker in Mond City? Or, who of the bakers in the city often goes to the Cat's Tail Tavern? Did you drink?"

Diona, the signature bartender and bartender of the Cat's Tail Tavern, must be more popular with the drink-loving Mond town people than herself, who ordered bread according to her lunch and dinner quotas.

Eh?A baker who likes to drink?After listening to Xia Yu's question, Diona was stunned for a moment, and then thought carefully with one hand on her chin.

Because of its own reasons, the business of the Cattail Tavern has indeed improved a lot. Most of the customers who sit in front of the bar every afternoon happily tasting wines want to taste their newly created wine varieties. If you think about it carefully, it seems that It is true that the uncle who has two bakeries is a lover of his own wine.

"Indeed, are we going to buy bread?" Diona, wagging her tail, seemed full of energy. "There is a bakery right behind the cattail tavern. The manager is an uncle in his 40s. The bread baked in the shop is bright yellow and soft, full of wheat flavor and a proper buttery aroma, very delicious of."

While explaining to Xia Yu, Diona felt a little entangled.I didn't expect that the road to destroy the Mond wine industry would be helped by people who love wine. What kind of fate is this?

The little girl who was pointing the way brought Xia Yu to the front of the bakery. The rich aroma of wheat and butter was introduced into Xia Yu's nose along the oven placed outside the door. Judging from the golden-colored bread, the owner of the store should have a good bread-making skill.

Go in and have a look. Just when Xia Yu, who had made up his mind, was about to open the door, the shop owner greeted him instead. This slightly fat middle-aged man looked like he was in his early forties, with a faint expression on his face. The chubby feel makes the smiling shop owner look extremely approachable.

"Hey? Isn't this Boss Xia, can you tell me what the random dishes for today's lunch are?" The store manager who greeted him smiled even more happily when he saw Xia Yu's visit. "I also have some bread here that are suitable for the dishes in your store. Would you like to try it?"

After introducing to Xia Yu, the store manager, who kept his eyes flat, finally noticed the little girl who had not reached the height of Xia Yu's chest. "Damn, look at me, the quality of the meat that Boss Xia uses is so good, he must have known Mr. Dulav and his daughter." The shop manager who patted his forehead crouched down and asked Diona, "I don't know. What kind of bread does our rising star of the Mond bartenders want today?"

Diona, who kept peeking at Xia Yu with her eyes, caught the shop owner's attention, and then raised her head to look at Xia Yu, who was looking at the various kinds of bread on display on the shelves in her shop. The slightly chubby shop manager affirmed one thing:

At the moment, it seems that the two people came to the store as if it was not as simple as buying some bread.
