The Dragon Wife and the Manor [System]

Josie led Yu Xiasheng and others to an empty training ground.

Yimo arranged for two people to test the weapon, and the result was beyond Yimo's expectations.A weapon with a simple cross-wood structure is easier and more accurate than a bow and arrow.

Yu Xiasheng called it "crossbow".

Yu Xiasheng was reborn on Asaros' body and inherited all of Asaros' memories.Yu Xiasheng only needs to recall a little about things that are not in Ergos Continent, and he can discover many things.And the crossbow happens to be one of them.

It just so happened that Yu Xiasheng had the opportunity to come into contact with crossbows during college, and Yu Xiasheng studied engineering design, so it was not difficult to draw the blueprints.

"Really good."

Imogen picked up the crossbow and looked at it carefully.The smooth structure of the cross reduces the difficulty of shooting, which is very suitable for beginners.And the increase in shooting intensity and range makes it more practical on the field.

"Thank you." Yu Xiasheng felt that the momentum was good, and prayed that the crossbow would sell for a good price.

"This weapon..." Yimo stared at the crossbow and thought for a moment, then said, "The purchase price I can offer is..."

After speaking, Immo took the abacus from Josie and typed out the price.

The moment the abacus was shown to Yu Xiasheng, Yu Xiasheng's smile froze on his face, "President Yimo... Are you sincere about this price?"

Eight hundred silver coins, fully half of what Yu Xiasheng expected.

"Have you misunderstood?" Imo said harshly, "Recently the garrison is indeed recruiting recruits. However, our purpose is not to garrison the border and eradicate robbers. The opponents of the garrison are demons, not humans."

Yi Mo's words made Yu Xiasheng's face change slightly.

"Your weapon is really powerful, but compared to the magic bullet, it is still much weaker." Imola pulled up the crossbow string and looked at the target along the arrow on the rack. Solve our current problems."

"Sell or not, please think carefully."

Yimo shot an arrow and hit the bull's-eye steadily. He raised his eyebrows and returned the crossbow to Yu Xiasheng.

Yu Xiasheng didn't remember how he left the Mischello Chamber of Commerce, nor how he drove to find a hotel to stay.When he came back to his senses, Nigeya was squatting in front of his eyes, watching him worriedly.

"Nigeya," Yu Xiasheng said weakly, "Did I fail the negotiation?"

Nigga nodded.

Failed!Yu Xiasheng rubbed his temples angrily, feeling a severe headache.

After careful calculation, twenty days have passed since the mission started.There is still a month to go, even if he sells the crossbow for 1000 silver coins, the total assets in his hands are only over [-], which is not enough to buy a manor at all.

"Are you hungry?" Nigga asked.

Yu Xiasheng shook his head, "I'll go downstairs and let the boss cook some dinner for you, fish... next time, sorry."

"It's okay." Nigeya stopped Yu Xiasheng who was about to get up, "I'll do it."

"But..." Before Yu Xiasheng finished speaking, Nigeya took her downstairs.Because it's not time for dinner yet, there are not many customers coming to eat in the store, and the kitchen is also quiet.As soon as Nigeya appeared outside the kitchen, he heard a middle-aged woman's voice: "Hey, ma'am, the ingredients have been prepared for you, and the kitchen can be used as you like."

lady?

Yu Xiasheng looked at Nigeya suspiciously, Nigeya quickly avoided looking at each other, and explained in a low voice: "That person misunderstood without authorization."

Yu Xiasheng still wanted to say something, but he caught a glimpse of Nigeya's blushing face as he tried his best not to make the atmosphere awkward, and immediately swallowed the words again.

Yu Xiasheng followed Nigeya into the kitchen. Just as the proprietress said, the condiments and side dishes were ready.

Nigeya let Yu Xiasheng sit down beside him, rolled up his sleeves, grabbed the eel to the cooking table, picked up the knife, and started to handle the fish.Under the straight standing posture, Nigeya's strokes were amazingly smooth, but under his serious and focused profile, there was a bit of jerky and nervousness.

"When did you learn to kill fish?"

Seeing this, Yu Xiasheng couldn't help asking.

"When I came back... I watched it in the kitchen for a while." Nigeya smoothly cut open the belly of the fish, and heaved a sigh of relief, "It's not difficult."

"Then how do you plan to cook this fish?" Yu Xiasheng felt that he was sitting blindly doing nothing, so he got up and wanted to help Nigeya with other ingredients, but Nigeya refused with his eyes, "Long is very knowledgeable. Know."

Being prevaricated and returned to the chair, Yu Xiasheng had no choice but to continue watching Nigeya cook the eel honestly.

Nigeya carefully selected sauces and spices, prepared them, and spread them evenly on the boneless eel steaks. On the other side, he prepared thick and translucent rice to start steaming.

Yu Xiasheng guessed that Nigeya was probably making eel rice bowl.Just thinking about it, I couldn't help swallowing.

Nigeya sent the eel steak into the oven preheated by the master, and after tossing it in a decent manner for a long time, he brought out the fragrant eel with his dirty face.

The rice just happened to be steamed. After Nigeya brought out a pot of rice, he slapped the eel steak on top without any explanation.

"You...!" Yu Xiasheng wanted to stop it, but it was too late.

Nigeya poured the last sauce on the eel steak, and the aroma burst out along with the heat.

"It's too much, Nigeya." Yu Xiasheng looked at the fullness of the large eel steak covering the surface on a large pot of rice, full of joy and helplessness, "I can't finish it now."

"Mostly mine."

Nigeya was also unambiguous, and had already fetched the spoon.

"Wash your face first." Yu Xiasheng wiped the ashes on Nigeya's face. Nigeya was slightly stunned, and touched his face in a daze. Seeing the black marks on his fingertips, he suddenly realized.But Yu Xiasheng didn't give Nigeya a chance to leave the kitchen, he scooped a bowl of water from a nearby bucket, and splashed the water on Nigeya's face with his hand.

"Cold..." Nigeya resisted for a while, but it was a pity that Yu Xiasheng was soft and not hard, the more Nigeya wanted to escape, the more Yu Xiasheng caught him to death.

In the end, Nigeya obediently let Yu Xiasheng wash his face with his hands.

Soon the dirt on Nigeya's face was taken away by the water, Yu Xiasheng wiped the water dry with his sleeve, and pinched Nigeya's face as if rubbing oil.

"It's going to be cold." If Yu Xiasheng continued to smear his face with ink, Nigeya would be very angry.

"Okay, I'll try."

Yu Xiasheng let go of Nigeya regretfully, picked up a spoon, scooped up a piece of eel, and put it into his mouth together with the plump rice grains.

This is a slightly fishy and salty taste.

Because the seasoning uses seafood unique to Shuidu, it is mixed with rich seafood flavor, which makes up for the bad effect of poor fishiness.The fresh and tender meat of the eel seems to melt in the mouth. The baking time is just right, and the residual temperature on the meat is just right to warm the last sauce.

It wasn't an excellent taste, but it carried a strong heat, which immediately warmed Yu Xiasheng's eyes.

Yu Xiasheng has never felt so vulnerable.

A simple failure can blow him to pieces, and even Nigeya can't stand it, so he can't help encouraging him in this way.

"……no?"

Seeing that Yu Xiasheng hadn't moved the spoon for a long time, Nigeya couldn't help feeling worried.

"No." Yu Xiasheng came back to his senses and shook his head. He put down the spoon, pulled Nigeya in front of him, and hugged him tightly, "It's delicious, thank you."

"Yeah." Nigeya was relieved, but soon became confused again, "Why did you suddenly hug me?"

"A little happy..." Yu Xiasheng's voice was muffled, and he tried his best to restrain himself from crying accidentally because he was moved.

Nigeya glanced at the steaming eel bowl for a while, and then at the person in front of him, the strange feeling in his heart dissipated, replaced by the same happy mood.Nigeya leaned against Yu Xiasheng, raised her hand, and gently hugged Yu Xiasheng back, with a gentle voice: "That's good."

"Hey, did you disturb Mr. and Madam when you came in at this time?"

The proprietress appeared outside the kitchen door at some point, and the two hurriedly let go of each other when they heard the sound. Nigeya lowered her head and covered her face with her hood, while Yu Xiasheng blushed in embarrassment and smiled: "Thank you again You allowed us to use the kitchen."

"You're welcome, sir." The proprietress responded gently: "No one will refuse your beautiful lady's request."

Nigeya was slightly stunned, lowered his head and carefully moved behind Yu Xiasheng.

shy.

Yu Xiasheng couldn't help but continue to tease: "It's still very gentle."

"Yes, gentle and beautiful."

Nigeya pinched Yu Xiasheng calmly, it hurt a lot, Yu Xiasheng's smug smile suddenly subsided, "I think we should vacate the kitchen for you, I hope it won't affect your business."

"I hope so too."

The face of the proprietress, who was originally happy, was covered with hoarfrost.

"What happened?" Yu Xiasheng saw some unusual clues from the middle-aged woman's face.

"Evil curse," the proprietress sighed. "The men who returned from the voyage were all cursed. Damn it, it was definitely caused by the devil. They suddenly howled like crazy and bit people, and several of them couldn't suppress it. Everyone was scared, and then no one dared to go to sea, and the lord ordered the port to be sealed."

Yu Xiasheng was lost in thought.

"Don't be nervous, sir, the lord will take care of everything, as well as the church." The proprietress obviously has expectations for the lord and the church, "It's just that the business will be colder these days."

Yu Xiasheng was thoughtful, and after meeting Nigeya's gaze, he complied with the proprietress' words.

Back in the bedroom, Nigeya took off his turban, and his long black hair immediately fell down, looking as beautiful as a dark elf.

"Nigya, you said that the smell of demons here is very strong."

While admiring Nigeya's pleasing beauty, Yu Xiasheng asked, "Does this demon clan also live here?"

"No," Negya denied, "the smell coming from the direction of the sea is a stench, coming from decaying corpses."

"A demon?"

Nigga nodded.

Probably the garrison is hiding something.The lord is not hesitant to sacrifice the huge benefits brought by the fishery, but also something that must be guarded against.Where no one can see, demons and humans have started a struggle.

"This is probably my last chance." Yu Xiasheng muttered.

"You want to take risks?" Nigeya watched Yu Xiasheng's solemn expression seriously.

"That's right." In order to multiply the two hundred silver coins in his hand by ten times, Yu Xiasheng had to take a risky attempt, "Will you help me, Nigghog?"

Nigeya's eyes flashed, "Of course, but...before that."

"Before this?"

"You need to feed your dragon."
