Did the lord get rid of poverty and become rich today?

Recently, Qiao Yi found that his kitchen was always missing things.

At first, there were some small snacks, potato chips and French fries, and then slowly began to throw fried fish balls, braised pork that was saved for later use, and even freshly baked steamed buns.

At the beginning, Qiao Yi didn't realize that there was anything wrong.

After all, a large bag of potato chips lacks one, two, three or five pieces, which is not normal for a guy like Qiao Yi who has rough daily life.

Until today, Joe Yi got a jar of wild honey saved last year from the old Orion.

Just when he had marinated the meat and was about to make a honey-glazed barbecue meal, with just a twist of his face, a large pot of marinated meat disappeared under Joe's eyes.

Qiao Yi, who was cleaning the baking tray, just froze in place holding the baking tray, and began to doubt life.

"The kitchen just... has anyone come in?"

Qiao Yi looked at Roy who had just entered the door after drying the old food.

"No." Roy shook his head: "Did something happen?"

Qiao Yi was silent for a while, and pointed to the empty meat on the stone platform, even the basin had been taken away: "The castle seems to be... haunted."

Roy: "??"

As a young man with red seedlings growing under the red flag, Qiao Yi didn't believe in these things at first.

But this world obviously cannot be judged from the world view of the earth.

The guy who claims to be his ancestor is still hanging on the wall of the study room. Apart from arguing with Xiao Fei every day, he sings loudly to the sky to disturb the people.

So Qiao Yi had reason to suspect that something strange had entered his house.

——Although the target of this thing is... quite surprising to Qiao Yi.

But now the most important thing is:

Their lunch is gone today.

It's too late to marinate again.

This made Qiao Yi feel very painful.

There are not many spices left, wild honey is even rarer, and even the meat is the best pork belly.

Roy was also sad.

Because he hasn't tasted the honey grilled meat yet, but the things made by the lord have never tasted bad.

"Master—Master—"

Suddenly Dean's voice came from outside.

The two turned around, and saw Dean running in, blushing, as if he had encountered something that shocked him: "Master, outside—outside—"

"? What's going on outside?" Joe put down the baking tray, looked at Dean who was panting because of running, took a glass of water and handed it over: "Don't worry, speak slowly."

Dean took the cup "Ton Ton" and drank it in one gulp, took a breath, wiped his mouth and said, "A group of elves came outside, pulling a whole cart of food! Many people ran out to watch."

……

As soon as Joe packed himself up and went out, he saw Lancaster standing in the front at a glance.

Except for their daily activities in the forest and occasional appearances in the sea market, the elves basically would not openly show so many people together in Stormwind Manor.

What's more, he came in with such a high profile, pulling a whole cart of grain.

As a result, these elves from the forest, all of whom were outstanding in appearance, were watched by the leaders as soon as they entered the manor.

The most eye-catching one is Lancaster who is walking in front.

If the elves are a group of people who are favored by God to give them a long life and a beautiful appearance, then Lancaster is undoubtedly the most favored one in this group.

Even standing among a group of elves with generally good looks, this guy is still at the top of the food chain.

The noon sun poured down, and the light golden hair, which was different from other elves, seemed to be shining, making the skin like the finest suet jade more translucent.

The clear blue eyes are more like crushed stars inside.

It's like a god descending to the world.

As soon as Joe stood at the door, looking at the elf opposite, he was amazed for a moment.

Then he thought uncontrollably of the Lancaster who sat across from him that night, hiding from his sight with red ears.

Qiao Yi: Cute, I want to bully.

"Good afternoon, Lancaster."

Joe bent his eyes and smiled, and his heart was so happy that he flew.

After all, who doesn't love shiny silver coins?

Lancaster nodded slightly: "Good afternoon."

"Let's go in and talk?" Joe raised his hand to cover his forehead, blocking the dazzling sunlight at noon, and turned sideways to invite the other party to enter the door.

"it is good."

Lancaster nodded, turned around and raised his hand, and saw the group of elves pushing the cart of food into the backyard, and left quickly without even drinking.

Qiao Yi glanced over there seemingly casually.

It seems that this guy's status in the elves is not low.

"The seed you want."

In the living room, Lancaster took out a small cloth bag from his arms and put it on the table.

Joe poured two glasses of honey water and handed one to Lancaster. Then he walked to the sofa by the table and sat down, drank the honey water and picked up the cloth bag.

The drawstring cloth bag is easy to open.

However, after opening it, Qiao Yi discovered that there were four smaller cloth bags inside.

In the small cloth bag, four different kinds of vegetables were lying in it.

But obviously, there were two more seeds than the melon and lettuce that Qiao Yi wanted.

"This is?"

Qiao Yi looked at Lancaster who was sitting opposite and was holding honey water.

"Tomatoes and cucumbers. For you."

Stewed Beef Brisket with Tomatoes!

Stir-Fried Nether Melon with Tomatoes!

Tomato scrambled eggs!

Cucumber salad!

In an instant, Qiao Yi, who had a bunch of dish names popping up in his mind, rolled his eyes: "This is so embarrassing."

On the other hand, he carefully put away those seeds and put them away: "Thank you."

Favorability +100

Fairy Lancaster gets good guy card +1

Then the elf on the opposite side brought out a delicate cloth bag, which jingled as it shook.

I think it's the transaction gold this time.

Qiao Yi felt that the most beautiful voice in the world was nothing more than this.

"Whoa."

The bag landed on the table, and the bag opened, revealing the golden gold coins inside.

30 gold coins.

[Earn 5000 silver coins, task progress: 5000/5000, task rewards have been distributed to Caiji Station, please pay attention to check. ] Suddenly, a dialog box popped out with a "ding".

Qiao Yi looked at the bag of gold coins and was silent for a while.

...Should I sigh that he is worthy of being an elf with no humanity?

However, maybe it was due to his conscience, Qiao Yi struggled a little while looking at the pile of gold coins, and said, "Too many. It's not worth these."

The elf on the opposite side shook his head: "Including the money to buy the production method."

Joe blinked.

In fact, the steaming method of steamed buns and the various cooking methods that Qiao Yi has made are now known to most of the residents in the Stormwind Territory, and they can get the recipes just by asking.

Now this guy is serious about buying recipes with gold...

Should I say that this kid is really honest?

But seeing Lancaster's serious look, Qiao Yi finally accepted the money.

In return, Qiao Yi decided to wait until the pepper tree in the backyard and the peppers he just got had seeds in autumn, and give him some as well.

The honey barbecue at noon was ruined by the unknown thief who stole the kitchen, but now there is still time to prepare and cook again.

Joe left Lancaster to dine in the castle, planning to stew a pot of crucian carp soup.

Everyone in the castle who thought they had lost the bacon, but they wanted to eat steamed buns at noon today and only salted fish suddenly felt bright again.

……

There is a special restaurant in the castle, but it has not been used for a long time, and even the door is dusty.

Because the kitchen is very large, the Lord's Mansion, which has only four people, has always set up a table in the kitchen for meals.

Even squatting directly on the edge of the stove - such as when eating barbecue.

When Joe is cooking, other people usually can't help much. At most, he peels the garlic and onion.

Dean and Roy unloaded goods in the warehouse, sorted out the food sent by the elves, and cleaned the large millstone that hadn't been used for a long time.

Old Gurner took notes in the warehouse.

Yi Er squatted in the room to change the formula, and hadn't shown up for a long time except for eating.

So for a while, only Qiao Yi and Lancaster were left in the kitchen.

There is also a round-faced fat chicken and a crow that squat here at mealtime.

The fat chicken Xiao Fei was squatting behind Yun Duo, stretching out his little jiojio meanly to lift Yun Duo's wings.

Once Yun Duo looked over, he quickly turned his head to look at the sky, pretending that he was not the one who just raised the wings of others.

When Yun Duo turned his head away from looking at it, he continued to tentatively stretch out his jio to grab his tail.

Lancaster was sitting in front of the dining table, and in front of him was a pile of various snacks that Joe Yi had made recently: potato chips, French fries, fried noodle leaves, baked steamed bun slices, barbecue jerky...

"Eat more, you're welcome."

Joe Yi was holding the lively fish that had just been fished out of the bucket in his hand, while looking at the pile of snacks on the table, Lancaster, who was a little at a loss, said.

Lancaster looked at him, then at the snacks on the table, and finally took a piece of potato chips reservedly to taste.

Too bad, the feeling of feeding the little hamster came again.

Joe thought.

Then he accidentally slipped his hand, and the big fat crucian carp wrenched out of his hand, flicked Joe Yi's tail, and jumped back into the bucket with a "crash".

Joe One: ...

Perhaps animals in other worlds are also different from the earth, and this crucian carp is particularly fierce.

As soon as Joe was tired, his head was sweating. He missed the fish, but was thrown into the water, and his chin was hit by the tail.

Qiao Yi, who has a small temper and is full of viciousness, pulled out a knife from the chopping board in anger, intending to kill the fish on the spot in the bucket.

The crucian carp lying quietly in the pot is a good crucian carp.

Just as Joe was squatting by the bucket with the knife in his hand, looking at the fish in the bucket, and thinking about where to strike quickly and ruthlessly, a shadow shrouded him behind him.

The refreshing aroma of plants and trees enveloped her from behind, and the clean voice of an elf resounded above her head: "Let me come."

Then an arm with its sleeves rolled up brushed past Qiao Yi's face, and the slightly cool arm brushed against Qiao Yi's eartips inadvertently.

For a moment, it seemed as if a spark flashed from the tip of the ear.

Joe felt his ears warm up slightly.

But seeing that beautiful and slender hand immersed in the water, he reached out and pinched the crucian carp in his hand.

It was only when the temperature from behind disappeared that Qiao Yi suddenly came to his senses and stood up.

Lancaster had already pressed the fish that was still thrashing but couldn't get out of his palm on the chopping board.

According to common sense, the next step is to knock the fish unconscious with the back of the knife.

But Lancaster didn't do that.

I saw an almost negligible ray of light escaping from the palm that was holding the fish. In an instant, the fish that was flapping its tail and slapping the cutting board a second ago stopped moving.

Afterwards, the abdomen was dissected and the scales were scraped, and the movements were smooth and smooth. Soon, a clean fish was lying on the cutting board.

Holding the knife, Qiao Yi looked at the elf who was washing his hands beside him, and fell silent for a while.

... Judging from the other party's skillful and easy fish killing techniques and strange ability, it is not difficult to kill me.

What should I do if the hamster I plan to raise may bite?

As soon as Joe mentioned the fish, he began to slash the fish.

What can I do?

Feed him delicious food to increase his favorability.

The fish soup didn't simmer for too long, so I turned off the heat and took it out of the pot.

Overcooking will age the fish, losing its tender texture and losing its nutrients.

So when Joe Yi brought a pot of fish soup to the table, Brother Dean and Old Gener just entered the door.

The milky white thick soup is dotted with young green onions, some oily flowers float on the side of the tender white fish balls, and the rich aroma permeates the room with the rising white steam.

Qiao Yi filled a bowl for each person, broke off half a piece of steamed bun and soaked it in his own bowl.

The mantou full of thick soup melts in the mouth, the fish meat is fresh and tender, the fish balls are springy, and the warm fish soup seems to warm all the way from the throat to the stomach.

For a while in the quiet room, only the sound of eating was left.

Lancaster sat beside Qiao Yi, drinking slowly from a small bowl.

It is obviously a similar movement, but this person makes people feel particularly comfortable doing it.

The elf always had no expression on his face, but Qiao Yi clearly felt an emotion called "joy" from him.

Healthy ruddy nose tip, blond hair draped softly around the shoulders, and beautiful eyes that are much softer than usual...

It all shows that this person is in a good mood at this time.

Joe turned his head to look at Lancaster's naughty strand of hair that slid down his cheek. For a moment, he wanted to help smooth it behind his ear, and then pinched the other's tender earlobe to see Is it as soft as you imagined?

Oddly enough, Qiao Yi stretched out his hand.

However, the other party suddenly turned his head.

Four eyes facing each other.

Lancaster looked at Joe's outstretched hand, and was obviously taken aback.

"There's something on your head."

Qiao Yi naturally avoided the other party's eyes, and reached out to Lancaster's head.

Then spread out his hand, half a leaf was lying on the fingertips.

"Thank you."

As soon as Joe brushed off the leaves, he shook his head and suddenly thought of the thief who visited the kitchen.

So he tugged on Lancaster's sleeve:

"Can I ask you a favor?"
