Vol 2 Chapter 186: ·Partner

The Scandinavian taverns always look the same. Bars made of heavy oak, and poplars that are easy to grow are the main body used to cast houses.
At the beginning of the border gate at the Great Wall, there was no difference, but after going deep into the hinterland of Northern Europe, Hydera understood why the Nordic nobles would rather buy Spartan rice at three times the price... Nordic The crops are too bad.
Under the same weight, the crops in Northern Europe are smaller, and more importantly, they are very toothy. If you want to eat them normally, you need to add a lot of water to cook. But something like rice can't be cooked with fire. This also caused the rice produced in the Nordic countries to be raw or cooked, or rotten into a mess... Even if the wine is brewed, the taste is very general. It is inversely proportional to the thick wheat aroma in the Spartan ale.
Eat all the time, it’s okay to get used to it, but when you are used to this kind of thing, you can taste the crops of Sparta, and it’s no wonder that they have such a big reaction.
After a little tasting, Hydera stopped tasting. Instead, he sat quietly on the bar and waited to see if that person was willing to be his own guide, leading him to the dwarf kingdom.
The waiting process is long, because the dwarf kingdom does not seem to be so easy to find, and experienced guides, or demon hunters, rarely appear in the tavern. While waiting, Hydera was surprised to find that the sausages here taste very good. Thanks to the cold climate, Northern Europe has a good attainment in portable food like sausages. The cold climate makes all living creatures in Northern Europe have a stable and large source of energy supplement. This has led to the thick fur and grease often found in northern European organisms.
In this case, it is only necessary to make cleaned animal meat into sausages, and the fat inside will be automatically opened during the roasting process. Just sprinkle a little bit of salt or black pepper to season, bite it down, and with the crispy skin, the hot grease inside will "chuck" out of the gap, the violent meat makes Hydera like It was discovered that the flesh of the New World-Herbivorous Dragon is firm and natural with spices, but it is closer to the "delicate" taste. Each chew has a different taste. The Nordic sausage is closer to the "rough" taste. No need to taste it carefully, as long as you bite with your teeth, the oil will occupy the entire mouth with aroma.
Maybe you can try to introduce...
Hydera thought while eating. During the long march, food is essential. Even if this is a piece of meat or fat, it is a huge boost to morale. Taking World War II as an example, American soldiers will almost always eat canned lunch meat that they judged as "like a minced meat without exercise". Meals have meat, but they are always rejected there... which is one of the important reasons why they are called young soldiers.
In contrast, during the Second World War, the Chinese army did not say that it was a meal a day, even if it was a meal a week. It also had a huge boost in morale and combat effectiveness.
Although the mixture of lard and starch was simply sealed with tinplate (tin-plated sheet), in that era, it was rejected and rejected by modern people and canned as unhealthy and carcinogenic food. It is a symbol of the top food industry...
The most valuable aspect of immortality is that it can free life from its dependence on external energy. Even if it does not eat, relying on immortality, the body can still be at its peak forever. Take Skaha as an example. Although it is the realm of the Lord God, because there is no immortality, she must eat regularly to ensure her fighting power. For Hydera... food is just a pastime.
With the current industrial technology of Sparta, it is simply a fantasy to want to manufacture tinplate directly. In that case... you can only use stupid methods.
If Hydella remembers correctly, the appearance of canned food was born in the eighteenth-century French general Napoleon because of the long march and the lack of fresh food supplies. At that time, Napoleon offered 12,000 francs as a reward to preserve the freshness of food. In the era when there was no tinplate, the easiest canned food was to put the food in a thick glass bottle, immediately heat it at a high temperature, and stop it with a wooden stopper, then seal it with wax.
Compared to tinplate tins, which are light and easy to carry, glass cans are heavy and inconvenient, but they are also very fragile. However, considering the current industrial level of Sparta, we can only choose the latter... Even if we choose the latter, we cannot allow the Spartan army to assemble on a large scale. One meal a day is impossible, but two meals a week Barely.
Just when Hydera thought about what should be the center of gravity for the next development of various industries in Sparta, a white-haired man in chain mail suddenly disrupted Hydera's side.
"Are you going to Walterheim?"
"Yes, it's me."
"How much is the commission?"
"Just do it yourself."
After hearing it for a moment, the white-haired demon hunter replied: "How about three hundred gold coins? Waltheim has a long way to go, and may encounter all kinds of Warcraft at any time. I will not continue to add money when I encounter any Warcraft."
"No, I can do it myself."
"Okay, then." said the devil hunter: "If you don't make a shot, one hundred and fifty gold coins, you need to pay for it."
Heard, Hedra nodded... 150 gold coins, which is very expensive for the Spartans. You know, a pound of rice is only a copper coin for the Spartans. It is also because of the large-scale acquisitions in Northern Europe that the price has risen slightly... Spartan has few metal ore veins, so the purchasing power of the currency is extremely strong. In Northern Europe, there are a lot of mineral veins, and the purchasing power is much lower than that of Sparta... I haven’t noticed before. After going back, I have to adjust the exchange rate...
Hydera does not know much about things like financial exchange rates, so this can only be left to scholars in the Spartan University Palace.
"My name is Gandalf, how about you?"
Hyder looked at the white-haired golden-eyed demon hunter.
"My name is Geralt."
With that said, Geralt went outside and brought a horse.
"He's my partner, can you call him Lobo...what's yours? Without a walking partner, just by walking, you won't necessarily be able to reach Waltheim in three months."
