"Are you going to mop the floor right away?"
Fang Gu took out a mop and knelt on the ground, carefully wiping away the water stains. If the water spilled on the wooden floor is not cleaned up in time, it will easily become damp.
Magikarp gave an apologetic look, and Fang Gu gently tapped Magikarp's 'crown'.
"I believe you didn't do it on purpose, it's okay," Fang Gu comforted Magikarp.
Magikarp are naturally fond of jumping, so keeping them in a fish tank is too much of a waste for them.
We still need to build an artificial lake in the middle of the Stardew Valley ranch as soon as possible.
After wiping the floor, Fang Gu walked straight to the door of the wooden house. The three bees in the hive had already woken up under the influence of their biological clocks, but the reason they hadn't moved yet was that they were guarding the most precious thing in the hive.
Good morning, Three Bees.
"Buzz!"
When the three bees saw Fang Gu arrive, they excitedly flew around him and then guided him to the edge of the hive.
Fang Gu smiled and reached his hand inside the beehive.
[Congratulations, host, on completing a collection and obtaining a sweet jar.]
[Congratulations, host, you have successfully completed a harvest and obtained half a jar of magical honey.]
This is the special function of the beehive, which provides a safe and comfortable environment for the three types of bees to produce honey. Under this environment, the honey production cycle of the three types of bees is basically fixed, producing honey approximately every two days.
At the same time, thanks to the hive, the honey production of the three honeybees has also increased significantly.
In just two days, they produced another half jar of magical honey.
Fang Gu took out half a jar of amber-colored honey. This honey, which could make Pokémon grow quickly, might just be the key to the rise of Stardew Valley Ranch.
The three bees looked at the magical honey with longing eyes, and tears welled up in their eyes.
Fang Gu rubbed the head of the three bees with one hand, and tucked the magical honey into his pocket with the other.
He wanted to try using this magical honey as an ingredient; perhaps he could create even more amazing dishes.
"Buzz!"
"Come back for dinner later, don't go too far."
The three hardworking bees are about to set out.
Under Bulbasaur's influence, the originally timid Tribeca has also grown somewhat.
It understood that the future and funds of this home depended on it gathering nectar little by little.
The three bees didn't feel tired at all; they just felt so good to be relied on!
The three bees' activity area in the morning is near Stardew Valley Ranch. As long as Fang Gu walks to the door and shouts loudly, the three bees, having finished sucking nectar, will leisurely fly back.
Fang Gu returned to the cabin and took out the tools for making breakfast from the kitchen counter.
Today he is going to make a dish that will be popular throughout the entire Parthian region.
sandwich!
"Dana."
Bulbasaur, still half asleep, came out of the room. Not seeing Fang Gu, it went out to look for him.
Good morning, Bulbasaur.
Fang Gu was wearing an apron, and Bulbasaur subconsciously said "Da na".
It probably means that the morning is not a good time.
Bulbasaur leaned against Fang Gu's calf, its eyes slightly narrowed, clearly still a bit grumpy from waking up.
Fang Gu squatted down and gently patted Bulbasaur's cheek.
"Cheer up, we'll need your help next."
Bulbasaur finally came to its senses.
Help Fang Gu! It's the leader of Stardew Valley Ranch, and she can't hesitate to do it!
Bulbasaur was intently watching Fang Gu's actions.
Fang Gu picked up the knife beside him and started humming a song. He heard a "thump thump" sound coming from not far away.
He knew he would have to prepare an extra sandwich this time.
Fang Gu took a knife and cut open the baguette. Sandwiches in the Parthian region are made with this kind of hard bread. Fearing that others might not be used to it, Fang Gu also prepared other, softer breads.
Then Fang Gu neatly arranged the sliced ham pieces one by one on the bread.
Then add slices of butter.
"Of course, we need to add a touch of green at the end, after all, vegetables are indispensable."
The lettuce Fang Gu took out was freshly washed, with a few water droplets still on it. This kind of lettuce would make the sandwich more tender, crisp and delicious.
This is a basic sandwich that even shorts-wearing boys in the Padina region can make—a ham and butter sandwich!
Of course, Fang Gu's version is an improved version with the addition of lettuce.
"Dah!"
Bulbasaur squeaked in dissatisfaction, saying, "I was supposed to ask it for help!"
"Don't rush, the next step is the most crucial one, which will determine whether the sandwich tastes good or not!"
Fang Gu took out a small flag and had Bulbasaur stick it onto the sandwich.
"Dah!"
After being coaxed by Fang Gu, Bulbasaur tilted its head back, rolled up its vines to make a small flag, and earnestly stuck it into the sandwich.
[Congratulations, host, on completing a cooking session and obtaining a "Ham and Butter Sandwich (Improved Version)!"]
Chapter 46 Magical Honey I added magical honey!
[Congratulations, host, on completing a cooking session and obtaining a "Ham and Butter Sandwich (Improved Version)!"]
[Gain 1 cooking experience point.]
[Ham and Butter Sandwich (Improved Version), Quality D. A sandwich made with ham, butter, bread, and lettuce, popular in the Padilla region. Improved by Fang Gu, its taste is even better. For a period of time after eating it, the probability of encountering Bug-type Pokémon is greatly increased.]
Just as Fang Gu had thought.
Foods that have appeared in Stardew Valley or Pokémon-related series are more likely to receive special cooking bonuses.
While sandwiches, a food with only 151 fixed recipes in Pokémon games, can be made in an infinite number of different recipes in the real world!
For example, now.
Fang Gu is adding magical honey to the basic method of making ham and butter sandwiches!
When amber-colored honey was poured over the tempting slices of ham, even Fang Gu couldn't help but swallow hard.
The sweetness of honey and the salty aroma of ham blend together perfectly.
The Bulbasaur at Fang Gu's feet looked at the sandwich with a longing expression, and even the Magikarp in the fish tank quietly floated to the surface, neither arguing nor making a fuss, just quietly watching Fang Gu's back.
[Congratulations, host, on successfully completing a cooking session and obtaining a "Ham and Butter Sandwich (Miraculously Improved Version)!"]
[Gain cooking experience +1]
Ham and Butter Sandwich (Miracle Improved Version), Quality B. This sandwich, made with Miracle Honey, ham, butter, bread, and lettuce, is a popular food in the Padilla region. Improved by Fang Gu, it is sweet and tempting, and has a fatal attraction for Bug-type Pokémon. After eating the sandwich, Pokémon will gain a lot of experience and grow rapidly (especially Bug-type Pokémon).
Fang Gu's eyes lit up instantly; this was the first time he had ever made such a high-quality special dish.
"It seems that the quality of ingredients plays a crucial role in the quality of special dishes."
Foods like sandwiches, which don't require cooking skills, can become high-quality specialty dishes if the ingredients are of good quality.
Perhaps one day Fang Gu will go and pluck feathers from Articuno, Moltres, and Zapdos to use as flags for sandwiches. I wonder what kind of items can be collected from these legendary Pokémon.
Fang Gu looked at the freshly baked, magically improved sandwich, which seemed to be a rapid growth tool prepared for the three bees.
As long as the three-necked bees eat enough sandwiches, they can quickly evolve into queen bees and then command a whole group of three-necked bees. At that time, it won't be a matter of one jar of honey every two days.
Fanggu will become the largest honey supplier in Guyue Bird Town, and even the entire Biyi City!
White Hole, a bright future awaits Fang Gu!
Fang Gu smiled and turned his head to see Bulbasaur's blinking eyes.
If it were a game, Fang Gu would not hesitate to give all the magically improved sandwiches to the Three Bees.
But this is the real world, and the bond between Bulbasaur and him cannot be compared to a small sandwich.
Fang Gu divided the sandwich into three portions.
"Give."
Fang Gu personally fed a sandwich to Bulbasaur. The sweet taste burst forth in Bulbasaur's mouth, and its eyes sparkled with a light comparable to the twinkling of stars.
A sweet, blissful aroma wafted from the flower bud on Bulbasaur's back.
Fang Gu suddenly felt a tingling sensation in his feet, and Bulbasaur quickly extended its vines to support him.
"Dah!"
Bulbasaur's call was filled with concern, and Magikarp also kept its deadpan eyes fixed on Fang Gu.
If Fang Gu is in danger, the carp king will definitely jump out of the fish tank.
But what's the point of popping out?
It's just a Magikarp at the lowest level.
Fang Gu's Magikarp is an exceptionally intelligent individual, unlike other Magikarp that are generally dull and confused.
But it is precisely because of its intelligence that it knows how weak and powerless its body is, and it seems that it is difficult for it to do anything for the kind and gentle humans in front of it.
Fang Gu, holding Bulbasaur's vine, shook his head with a look of surprise on his face.
"I am fine."
"Bulbasaur, you may have learned a new skill!"
A skill name popped into Fang Gu's mind—Sweet Fragrance.
