Chapter 193 Skeleton Chef
“Once the beets are cut into strips, add them to the large pot.”

As soon as Zhang Jingyi opened his mouth, the skeleton soldiers took the beets and walked to the large pot that had been prepared in advance. The pot was already filled with water, and there was a fire burning underneath, with boiling water bubbling in the pot.

The skeleton soldiers threw the beets into the pot with rather bold movements. One of them even put his arm into the boiling water...

A minotaur was about to follow suit and put his hand into the pot.

Zhang Jingyi laughed and scolded, "Hey! Don't learn this move! Do you want to stew beef trotters?"

The Minotaur said naively: "But the Skeleton Soldiers all did this. I thought this was a necessary step."

There's no point in arguing with this bunch of nameless bulls.

Zhang Jingyi discovered that although humans do not have any strange and amazing talents, their thinking is the most flexible and their ability to draw inferences from one instance is the strongest. For stupid things like this, humans know how to adjust themselves without even asking.

Okay, keep teaching!
What follows is a whole host of messy processes such as filtering, boiling sugar, etc. I omit 100 million words here, so interested readers can search on Baidu.

Zhang Jingyi deliberately did not teach them how to bleach with lime…

I only taught them the most basic cooking method.

The result is a dark brown sugar lump.

The color and quality are far inferior to the white sugar that Zhang Jingyi occasionally provides them with. However, this thing can still drive everyone crazy.

Ace picked up a small piece of brown sugar, but he was reluctant to taste it. He only broke off a little bit, put it in his mouth and licked it. Then he was overjoyed: "Sugar! It's really sugar! We made sugar."

The cows picked up the candy with rough hands and feet, threw it into their big mouths, and chewed it: "It's really candy! What a powerful alchemy."

Everyone was ecstatic, and of course, Ace was the happiest.

100 acres of beets, now all can be turned into sugar, what a huge fortune this is, it is simply unimaginable. He felt that he could now buy half of Xihuang Town, no, maybe even the whole town.

However, just as he was happy, he immediately began to fall into distress.

There are 100 acres of sugar beets. Even to dig them out, we have to hire kobold slaves to do the work. If we want to make all of them into sugar, how many people will be needed to do the work?
He couldn't help but turn his head to look at Sevi again.

Sevi shook his head quickly, "No! Although we can rent you the kobold slaves for a short period of time to dig beets, we can't rent them to you for long-term work. We still have to rely on these kobolds to mine. The ore they dig out must be handed over to His Majesty the King, and His Majesty the King can provide us with a large number of metal machines."

The iron ore smelted by the dog-headed miners is the material Zhang Jingyi uses to balance the energy of the two worlds. Without these dog-headed miners digging day and night, Zhang Jingyi would not be able to send various agricultural machinery and various alloys. He also couldn't play with abnormal armor, which was not acceptable.

A kobold can never go without work for long!

Ace was in trouble...

The process of making sugar from beets requires a lot of manpower. Hiring kobolds is out of the question, and hiring werewolves is definitely out of the question, not to mention dwarves, who are all too busy. After learning alchemy, minotaurs will definitely not be willing to continue doing this job.

How to do?
He was having a terrible headache when he suddenly saw two skeleton soldiers standing next to Zhang Jingyi. His eyes lit up: "Huh? Yes! I can also summon skeleton soldiers. I taught His Majesty the King the spell of [Control Undead]. I can also use this kind of free labor."

He quickly called over the skeleton soldier he was controlling: "Come here and cut some beets."

The skeleton soldier raised his sword and chopped the beet into pieces with one strike.

Ace: "Hey! Be gentle."

Skeleton soldiers, [Fierce Slash], one sword after another, chopped the beets until there was not a single scrap left.

Ace: "Aaaah! Why? My skeleton soldier can't cut vegetables? His Majesty's skeleton soldier cuts vegetables like a chef, but my skeleton soldier is just a fool?"

The little nun next to him whispered, "The dead will retain some of their will and abilities from their lifetime. Maybe the skeleton soldier controlled by His Majesty the King could cook when he was alive."

"Then let's go to the small valley and dig out the skeletons and try them one by one." Ace: "Maybe we can find a chef's skeleton." That night...

In the small valley north of Gilneas, the people of the Dark Church had been digging for bones with small shovels. Every time they dug out a body, they would use [Control Undead]. Then Ace took out a beet and said, "Cut it into strips!"

Skeleton Soldier: [Fierce Slash]

"Cut into strips!"

【Death Blow】

"Cut into strips!"

[Cleave]

[Heroic Strike]

【Whirlwind】

……

A night passed just like that. The two nuns and a dozen believers all collapsed on the ground exhausted. Beside them, there were skeleton soldiers lying on the ground. They were all the guys who couldn't cook and had been eliminated.

Then, hard work will eventually pay off.

Ace was holding the hand of a skeleton soldier and laughing loudly towards the sky: "Hahahaha, hahahaha, I found it, I finally found it. A skeleton soldier who was a chef in his previous life, hahahaha! Great, hahahaha."

The skeleton soldier laughed along with his master, his mouth wide open: "Crack! Crack!"

A nun stretched out a hand weakly: "Father, you seem to... smile a little too early."

Ace: "What's wrong? I finally found the chef under the guidance of the God of Darkness. Shouldn't I smile?"

Nun: "We also need... a skeleton that can light a fire and boil water, a skeleton that can use gauze to filter impurities... a skeleton that can boil syrup... a skeleton that can dry the syrup and make candy bars..."

Ace froze!
"puff!"

Nun: "Oh no! Someone come quickly! The priest is vomiting blood and fainted."

After a long time...

Ace woke up from his coma and found himself back in Gilneas. A believer was fanning him. Two nuns and a dozen other believers were busy cutting beets and boiling a big pot...

The kind of busyness that makes you run around in circles.

When Ace looked up, he saw a skeleton soldier mixed in with the believers, waving a kitchen knife and chopping with the chopping board. "Ah? We're back? Is the chef skeleton already working?"

The believer said, "Yes! The skeleton soldiers are really useful at work. They are tireless and are always working."

Ace: "Of course it's tireless. Every time it strikes, it uses the magic power I provide..."

Thinking of this, Ace thought of another key point.

If you summon a lot of skeletons to work, they will work very hard together, but they will consume your magic power, and it won't be long before you die.

Ace sighed, "No, I can't rely on the skeleton soldiers to do this. I have to open a proper beet workshop and hire workers to do this. And I have to hire workers to do it every year after the beets are harvested... I'm afraid this has to be turned into a proper industry."
