Hotel on the mountain

In January 1803, a piece of news reached the hands of the St. Rigo family in the Boyero Empire.

"Raphael is dead." The voice of the speaker was calm.

A woman present was so shocked that the tea cup she was serving dropped to the ground. She asked in a trembling voice: "Who did this?"

"No one, he died in a shipwreck and sank in the ocean between the old and new continents."

"Do you believe it?! You actually believe this kind of rhetoric!" The woman was very excited. "Someone must have killed my Raphael, someone must have killed him..." The woman's voice started to cry. The afternoon tea between husband and wife can no longer go on.

"The person who sent the message from the Hebrew Empire said that they still don't know what happened, but the ship must have sunk." The speaker paused and continued to read the message, "No one survived. Because the ocean current brought Only when they found the wreckage of the ship did they know something had happened to the ship.”

"Then...that Princess Selena is not alive either?"

The woman's husband continued to read the message silently. After reading it, he frowned and said, "She is alive and well. The letter said that Rafael left the New World alone, and he never told Selina about leaving. , we found a passenger ship and left very suddenly.”

"Murder! This must be murder!" the woman said excitedly, "How could there be such a coincidence? Impossible!"

The husband frowned, showing a thoughtful look, but he first refuted the woman: "That's enough, don't you know Raphael's character well? You've been the cause of all his bad habits. He It seems to me that it is completely normal to leave without even saying hello to Princess Selena.”

The woman looked displeased, and tears fell from the corners of her eyes like streams. She said in a heartbreaking tone, "Raphael is your child after all. Do you have the heart to say that to him?"

The husband's expression softened and he said softly: "Anyway, I will send someone to find out."

"What about Princess Selena?" The woman wiped her tears with a handkerchief.

"Before we find out the truth, no matter what, we must give an explanation to the Hebrew royal family. After all, their statement is that Raphael abandoned her, which seems like our Rigg family is insulting them." The husband pondered for a while, " Let’s let them join in the construction of Shamsha City on the Yanlong Peninsula first, and then we’ll talk about the specific matters.”

The woman nodded and began to sob again.

"By the way. The letter said that Raphael had an accident when he came back from the New World." The husband showed a thoughtful expression, and then he thought of a profitable thing, and the corners of his mouth turned up and he smiled, " Maybe we can take advantage of this and send someone to the New World.”

…

At the same time, in the New World, a lively celebration banquet was going on in the atrium of the Alpine Hotel.

People who went to the Slam area of ​​the Great Chik Empire returned by ship. They stayed in the Hebrew Empire for a while before arriving in the New World years later. Chef Pavlov had already made full preparations for this celebration banquet, and delicious food was served to the table——

Charcoal grilled Velociraptor ribs, sliced ​​Brachygnathus breast oil, boiled small fish fillets... After these regular dishes, there are also some original delicacies created by Pavlov based on the specialties of the New World.

He stood at the banquet table. Whenever the waiter brought a dish, he would restrain his loneliness and introduce it solemnly:

“Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to taste this ‘Continental Food Forest’.

The specific method is to make the liver of the mushroom pig into a sauce, then apply it on the tenderloin of the wild jaw dragon, wrap it in puff pastry and bake it. Finally, the honey collected from the marginal forest and the aquatic plants growing at the bottom of the Xingdeng River give the dish a natural mellow and sweet taste.

Another example is this ‘Crown of Haiti’.

What makes it unique is that its raw materials and cooking process are very valuable. "

Pavlov mastered the chef's accent, his rosacea twitching.

"Its main body is a kind of fish, but we have never seen this kind of fish, because it was 'caught' from the deep sea - a very, very deep sea, so when you taste it later, please remember , maybe there is no second fish like this in the world.”

Pavlov looked at everyone's eyes eager for answers, and finally smiled to satisfy everyone's thirst for knowledge——

"Well, let me tell you, this is what the little sea dragon swallowed a large amount of fish from the deep sea and spit it out on the shore. I chose some fish that looked delicious and cooked them with smoke. Make them. Guess what they are?"

The chef showed a complacent expression and listened to everyone's guesses with a smile on his face.

"Well, cigarettes?" Obsward said casually.

"No, no, no." Pavlov waved his hand.

"Smoke from the bonfire?" Guard Captain Sith guessed, but was also denied.

"Pavlov, just tell us." Jetro sat in his seat, smiling and asking him to reveal the secret quickly.

"It's the fire dragon's 'fire smoke'."

Everyone used their knives and forks to taste the food. They had to admit that this superb cooking skills and bold cooking techniques made the diners feel the soft waves in the deep sea and the passion in the volcano. The dual taste bloomed on the tip of the tongue. The fish meat goes smoothly into the mouth and flows into the stomach.

Singer Betty's song rang out on the stage. This was an exclusive banquet for everyone at the Alpine Hotel, and no guests were allowed to pass through.

The waiter brought some more wine in glasses, and Pavlov couldn't wait to let everyone taste it.

"Rich and smoky. Strangely, it seems a little cold." Engineer Charles Alexander Alva put his nose into the wine glass, took a deep sniff, and gave his comment.

Daoer smacked his lips and felt it tasted good. He took another sip and said, "It's a little sweet."

The wine in the glass was golden yellow and reddish.

Sorad opened his helmet, took a sip, and said, "It has the aroma of flowers, fruits, and honey."

"Perfect!" Pavlov applauded, "This wine is called 'Alpine Red'. Mushroom pigs like to eat plants. In their stomachs, these undigested foods will have a unique aroma. I took them out and fermented them naturally.

Then, I asked the fire dragon to apply a process called 'fire roasting' to these wine jars, which will greatly enhance the taste and aroma of the wine.

But the fire of the fire dragon has some fierce flavors, so I bottled these wines and stored them on the seabed. Of course, I asked the lantern fish to take care of them."

Hearing this, Yetro couldn't help laughing. No wonder he suddenly received a message from the Emperor Lantern a while ago, asking him if the wine was ready. It turned out to be about this wine. Yetro had to write it down. He wanted to send some to the Emperor Lantern.

"Now, all the dishes have been presented. Ladies and gentlemen, I hope you enjoy your dinner."

"Cheers to Pavlov's cooking skills!" Jetro was the first to raise his glass and drink the high mountain red wine. The rich taste of the wine swirled in his chest, and after drinking it into his stomach, he felt a sweet feeling tracing back, which made him feel very comfortable.

"Cheers to Pavlov!" Others also raised their glasses, and knives and forks swung, and each piece of food completed its mission with a mouth-watering chewing sound.
