Susie lifted her skirt and searched for a while before pointing to a blue patch embroidered in the shape of a smiley face.
From the delicate material and bright color, it can be seen that the original blue dress should be a very valuable piece of clothing.
After showing it to everyone, Susie said a little embarrassedly: "Hey, I embroidered the smiley face on it later. I didn't know how to do it at the time, so it doesn't look very good.
But now I can do more than just embroidery! I also learned how to make clothes from Aunt Dolly next door!
Even though Aunt Dolly is a troll, she has very deft hands and can hold that tiny needle more steadily than I do!
I want a piece of blue fabric to make my mother a dress that's even prettier than the one she has now!
Wow... it seems not enough, I should ask for one piece to give to Aunt Dolly... Hey, maybe I can ask for one piece for myself...
Um... that... hehe~ it's really nice to have endless fabric~"
"Hahaha~"
Without the initial awkwardness, Susie immediately became talkative. Looking at the lively and bright appearance of the girl in front of them, Irons and Margaret couldn't help laughing.
Margaret patted Susie's little head affectionately and said, "Don't worry, I'm the Demon King, and I will definitely keep my promise. If I say it won't run out, then it definitely won't run out.
Of course, you have to make this thing public first. Suzy, how did you make this thing?"
“Uh… I just followed the chef’s instructions and added some starch to boiling water, but I didn’t add enough water and it became a little clumpy.
But it reminded me a little of the baked paste my mom made, so I put the clumping starch paste on the fire pit and baked it, and it turned out like this.”
“Is it really that simple?”
Hearing that this thing was easier to make than vermicelli, Margaret was slightly delighted and asked, "Have you thought of a name for this?"
"Name? I... I don't know what to call it... Just Kaohuhu?"
"Hmm... that doesn't sound very nice..."
When Margaret heard the name, she shook her head somewhat unsatisfactorily. Unfortunately, Margaret herself was also bad at naming and didn't know what to call this black thing.
But... why not ask the amazing Irons?
As a result, the eyes of the three people present turned to Irons who was standing aside with a subtle smile, and Irons had already prepared an answer for this.
In fact, after Ains tasted this thing and felt the sticky and chewy texture, he was already sure what this thing was.
"Just call it baba, big leaf potato baba."
Chapter 63: Hey! Great!
Because Susie accidentally created the big-leaf yam cake, the apprentices suddenly had an extra food to learn how to make.
After all, this thing is not difficult to make, and it will definitely be promoted in the future, so I’ll teach these apprentices first.
Of course, this is not the end, because soon these apprentices will have to learn more food technology.
It seemed that inspired by Susie's mistake, the chef of the Devil's Burger who discovered Susie, Little Wells, made some innovations in the next few days and created different new foods made with yam starch one after another.
For example, directly heat the yam starch water, turn off the heat when it becomes viscous, let it cool and solidify, and you will get a snow-white and crystal clear food. Due to the high water content, it has a soft texture and melts in your mouth.
After eating this thing, Ain laughed and said, "Since it is to be cooled and solidified, let's call it jelly block. By the way, this thing is not easy to taste, so remember to add salty and spicy sauce to mix it when eating~"
Then, Wells Jr. also discovered that when warm water was poured into yam starch, it would clump together like flour.
Being able to be kneaded and shaped, young Wells tried to process it like baking bread, and the result was a peculiar kind of bread that was crisp on the outside and tough on the inside.
Irons named this product baked mochi, and also gave little Wells a thoughtful suggestion that he could wrap some fillings in it, either salty or sweet.
As a result, as time went by, the food technology that the apprentices needed to learn increased like the wind.
Seeing how things were developing, Margaret was so happy that she even walked with the wind.
As the Demon King, she naturally hopes that there will be new and delicious foods like this in the Demon King's Castle, the more the better!
"So, now you know why I promote small folk workshops. The creativity of these folks is endless."
As Irons spoke, he walked over to Margaret, who was handling official documents, carrying a plate of mochi. Irons was the only one in the entire demon realm who could enter the Demon King's bedroom without saying hello.
Margaret was very happy about Irons's uninvited visit: "Irons? Why are you here?"
"I baked some mochi myself, and I wanted to ask you to taste it. It's a snack for you."
As he spoke he picked up a piece of mochi and stuffed it into his mouth, then handed it to Margaret for her to taste.
Irons came personally to deliver the snacks, and Margaret naturally would not refuse. She stretched, put down the documents in her hand and took a short break, then picked up a piece of mochi from the plate.
At the same time, he sighed: "These people are really creative. I didn't expect that in just a few days, the apprentices and chefs have come up with so many novelties. This mochi is really good. I think it tastes better than white bread."
Margaret took a bite. Wow~ The outer shell was crispy, the inside was soft and chewy, and... Wow, this rich sweet fruity flavor...
Such a surprising satisfaction for the taste buds made Margaret's expression brighten instantly, and the fatigue from the heavy workload disappeared instantly!
"Woo! This is delicious!"
After exclaiming in admiration, Margaret stuffed the whole mochi into her mouth in two bites, and then asked Irons with shining eyes: "What's added to it?"
"Dragon fruit. Before I baked the mochi, I added some dragon fruit jam to it. This is what the finished product looks like. How about it? How about this dessert?"
Margaret gave him two thumbs up and praised him: "Ians, you are a genius!"
Irons smiled and waved his hand: "Haha, I'm not a genius. The cook, Little Wells, is the real genius. He made these things through his own ideas and practice."
"Well, I never thought there was such a talented person in my Demon King's Castle. I didn't even notice him before. I should reward him well..."
"Give him an official position." Irons suggested directly.
"Official position?" Margaret was slightly stunned. For a moment, she couldn't think of what position she should assign to little Wells. "Um... Irons, what official position do you think he should be given?"
"Professional people naturally do professional things, and professional things also require professional positions. Demon King City didn't have any concept of food before, but now it has, so we naturally have to set a precedent. How about calling it a food research and development officer?"
Margaret nodded immediately: "Well, that's right, I can immediately tell the position of responsibility..."
"That's not all." Irons suddenly took out a set of documents and handed them to Margaret, saying, "Food is the primary need of the people. Food is a very important part of national governance. We also need food safety officers to ensure food safety.
In addition, how to put food on the market, how to price it and how to purchase raw materials all require a marketing officer who is specifically responsible for food sales.
The food industry needs to be systematic. I thought about it last night and summarized a system framework. It is just a preliminary draft and may be continuously improved, but we still need to be prepared for its implementation. Margaret, you can take a look at it first.
By the way, the vermicelli factory should also be expanded in scale. The new foods made by Little Wells are all starch foods and can be integrated into one factory for production. However, in this case, the name vermicelli factory would not be appropriate.
Change the name to Demon King City No. 1 Food Processing Factory. The positioning is not just to make vermicelli, but to specialize in the production of starchy foods..."
Watching Irons narrating this series of development strategies to her endlessly, Margaret felt a kind of happy distress at the moment. The happiness was that she could get such detailed guidance from Irons, and the distress was that...
Why are there so many contents popping up all at once? I can’t digest them all. I can’t digest them all!
At this moment, Margaret felt as if she were a student in a human academy, and even a student of advanced magic class. As long as she was distracted for a moment, she would find that she could no longer keep up with the teacher's teaching pace!
"Blah blah blah... um... these are the main points. There are some details that I can't finish talking about all at once, but they are all in these documents. Margaret, you can take your time to read them..."
After giving a brief account of the development plan, Irons looked up at Margaret, but saw her sitting there in a daze, stroking her eyebrows, as if her brain was overloaded.
Seeing this, Irons frowned and asked, "Margaret, did you understand what I just said?"
Margaret mumbled awkwardly, "Um, I should... probably... maybe... possibly... understand?"
Looking at Margaret's somewhat reluctant expression, Irons smiled helplessly.
He did not continue to force Margaret, but put the documents in her hands and said, "Okay, it's okay if you don't understand. Anyway, I have written the whole plan in detail in the document. If you have anything you don't understand, just look at the document later.
By the way, you don’t have to do all the work by yourself. A management organization needs division of labor. Sometimes you need to distribute the work to other people so that it can operate more efficiently. "
Margaret nodded somewhat embarrassedly and took the documents handed over by Ains.
After opening it and looking at the densely packed small words on it, Margaret suddenly felt a little overwhelmed. She suddenly felt that Irons was right. She really couldn't digest all these things by herself...
but……
Margaret looked up at Ains and began to think. She was already a little behind in just accepting the knowledge, but Ains, who could output this knowledge...
She couldn't help but sigh once again what a correct decision it was to abduct Ains to the Demon King's Castle!
Well, come to think of it... Ains came up with such a plan for himself, which seems to have nothing to do with his original purpose of opening a restaurant...
Ah~ Here comes another person who criticizes others for being upright~
Thinking of this, Margaret's mouth curled up, feeling that she had seen through everything. Ains, you can continue to be arrogant~ Anyway, in the end, you will be eaten up by me~
So, Margaret curved her eyes and teased, "Ians, are you ready to open your restaurant? You are busy writing these for me, don't forget to open the restaurant in the end~"
"Ah... the hotel..."
Facing Margaret's teasing, this time Irons did not continue to make excuses. Instead, he took a piece of mochi and took a bite, muttering, "Well... maybe there's no need to rush about restaurants or anything like that.
After all... I'm going to be your husband, right? Come on, Margaret. I think I'm starting to like this Demon King's Castle. It deserves a better look."
As he said this, Irons smiled slightly, took another piece of mochi, turned around and left Margaret's bedroom in a cool manner.
As for Margaret...
After hearing what Irons said, her expression froze at first, then she became more and more stunned, and finally she excitedly grabbed her hair and jumped up from the chair and cheered.
"Hey! Yay, I did it! Hahahaha!!!"
Chapter 64: Good thing? Bad thing?
In fact, although Margaret is a demon king, she is not one of the smartest women Irons has met.
Even in terms of learning ability, Margaret is not as good as Maribel.
Irons clearly remembered that when he first met Margaret, who used the alias Adela, Maribel secretly mocked her as a dull country girl.
I guess if Margaret knew about this evaluation, she might have killed Mary as well when she ran to Blackwater City to save herself.
And this is why Mary was so angry when Irons said to her, "You are not as good as Adela."
But Irons said this not simply because he was angry with Maribel. In his eyes, Margaret was indeed better than Mary.
Because although Margaret is not as good as Maribel in learning ability, she has other more outstanding advantages.
That is, Margaret is a person with strong decisiveness and execution ability. As long as Margaret thinks it is the right thing to do, she will do it and try it without hesitation.
This is something Irons appreciates very much.
Because her identity as a demon king gives her powerful strength, Margaret has a natural confidence and drive when doing things.
Some people might say that this was reckless, but Margaret had been the Demon King in the Demon Realm for so many years, and it would have been impossible for her to stay in the Demon Realm for so long just by being reckless.
The great thing about Margaret is that she knows when to rush and she always hits the bull's eye!
Ains had only said half-jokingly in Blackwater City: "If conditions permit, I would like to do business with the demons~"
Others just took this as a joke, but Margaret, who noticed this, took action immediately, using the magic crystal as an entry point to induce Ains to do business with the Demon King's Castle.
even……
Including this time, Margaret seized the opportunity and took him to the Demon King's Castle at a speed that no one could react to, and even announced at the speed of light that she would make him the king's husband.
All of this demonstrates Margaret's unique ability to make decisions and execute...
Moreover, Irons had to admit... he seemed to be moved by her.
Does Irons like Margaret? Of course he does. Irons has never been shy about the fact that he is a beauty lover. He will fall in love with beautiful girls when he sees them.
But...if you ask Irons whether he loves Margaret...
I'm afraid Irons has no way of being sure, because he doesn't know what love feels like at all.
However, not long ago, when Irons heard Margaret say to him while standing by the Blackwater River: "Your life is my life."
At that moment, Irons felt that he was truly touched. This was the first time someone had said such words to him.
Irons didn't know whether Margaret's words were sincere or just sweet talk, but at least at that moment, Irons was willing to believe that Margaret was telling the truth.
Maybe... this kind of belief is love?
But why am I willing to believe it?
At this moment, Irons knew that he could no longer lie to himself.
Perhaps he had actually been moved by Margaret's actions a long time ago, but he just didn't want to admit it.
And now, he admitted that he was willing to help Margaret develop the Demon King's City, he was willing to be Margaret's husband, and he was willing to help Margaret conquer the world.
After all, I am an alien time traveler. Helping Katarina, a human, is one thing, but helping Margaret, a demon, is not another thing.
What's more, Margaret was obviously more willing to invest than Catalina, and even put herself on the line. It was really difficult for Irons to refuse.
