Arknights, Suika's Messenger Journey

If you throw this meat in there, you won’t be able to find it at all.”

Shi Huaiya looked at the pot. She had never heard of using it to make hot pot.

"Of course not, this pot can feed at least fifty to one hundred tables of people.

Just cut a piece before cooking tomorrow."

Suika gestured and explained.

After hearing this, Shi Huaiya patted his chest to express his relief.

I can clearly smell the spiciness even through several layers of thick plastic wrap. If I use this pot to cook tomorrow, I'm afraid I'll die of the spiciness at Xingxiong's house.

After seeing Shi Huaiya off, many neighbors came over to ask what was in the pot Cuixiang was holding.

After learning that it was hot pot base, many people dispersed.

After all, most of the people on this street are elderly, and they have been coming to Longmen for a long time.

Not to mention that they were already accustomed to Longmen's light diet, it is also not recommended for the elderly to eat too much of such overly stimulating food due to their physical condition.

But Suika was also very generous and gave away a portion of it.

After all, even if I eat so much hot pot every day, I probably won’t be able to finish it before leaving Longmen.

As for Xingxiong, his taste is relatively light. It might be okay to eat it occasionally, but for a long time... The anorectal department in Longmen doesn't seem to be very good.

A certain pink-haired Zarak had just entered the room, and the people inside saw that she was holding a pocket bag with a shiny red thing in it.

"Yuxia, what did you bring back?" asked the person in the room.

"A friend gave me some hot pot soup base on the way. It was said to be from Shangshu..."

Chapter 443: Waiting for the moment when my beloved returns

"It's the little messenger from the Xingxiong family..."

The Rat King picked up a cup of hot tea and took a sip.

“Yes, it was that fellow Suika, who happened to be passing by the door when she caught him and insisted on giving him some.

I thought it would be nice to have something hot and spicy in the middle of winter, so I brought it back."

Lin Yuxia nodded and put the hot pot base in the house and prepared to go out to buy some dishes suitable for hot pot.

"What do you think of Rhodes Island?" The Rat King asked as Lin Yuxia was packing her things.

"It doesn't matter what I think. What matters is what it can bring to Longmen and us." Lin Yuxia looked very calm.

"Wei Yanwu plans to send Chen that kid over there to train...you..."

"No..." Before the Rat King could finish his words, Lin Yuxia refused decisively.

"I have so many things on my hands, and I have students to teach, and... I don't have time anyway." Lin Yuxia said and finally looked at the Rat King.

As the successor of Longmen's gray industry, Lin Yuxia faces more dangers than Chen.

There are even more people who disobey her. Even if the Rat King intends to let her take over, if she cannot demonstrate sufficient ability, the people below will overthrow her sooner or later.

Therefore, she needs a lot of time to gradually take control of the rights that originally belonged to the Rat King under the care of the Rat King.

This period is very long. Once she leaves Longmen for too long, someone will pounce on her like a shark smelling blood and devour all her previous efforts.

So even in the game, Lin Yuxia is classified as a cooperative field operator in Rhodes Island, the same as Kjerag's SilverAsh.

In order to consolidate their rule, they are unable to leave their territory for a long time.

The Rat King was well aware of this, but he told her about it only to let her take the initiative to find Wei Yanwu and reject the matter.

Just as Zarak and his daughter were having a great time, Suixiang walked back into the house and took out the copper pot and small stove that Xingxiong and Chen usually used for hot pot and set them up in the living room.

Then I went to buy a case of beer and threw it in the refrigerator.

Although I can pour alcohol from my Ibuki bowl, the most enjoyable feeling is to drink from the bottle while eating hot pot.

If you do it yourself, you will lose this sense of pleasure.

Just like playing computer games, no matter how much fun you have playing at home, it is still not as fun as playing with friends in an Internet cafe, even though you may go to the Internet cafe with your friends at night and come out in the morning.

Then she sat in front of the hot pot, thought for a while, turned around and walked out of the house.

When he came back, he was holding a small jar in his hand, which contained a magical artifact called "Laozao". He added this thing to the hot pot when cooking...tsk tsk.

In the other hand, he was holding a soda called "Suleda".

This was something she bought when she was shopping for fermented glutinous rice at the store and saw the soda. The name sounded familiar to her, so she bought it.

After all, we are not short of money, so we will naturally do the best.

At around three o'clock in the afternoon, Shi Huaiya called and said that she had arranged for a food delivery truck to deliver the food and asked Cuixiang to receive it.

According to Shi Huaiya's usual shopping habits, Cuixiang estimated that this cart would probably not be small.

Sure enough, a small truck stopped at the gate after a while.

After confirming his identity with Suika, he opened the trunk and found a pile of various foods inside.

It can be seen that the person who prepared the meal was very attentive. Each kind of food was packaged according to different categories. After taking it home, you just need to open the package and put it directly into the pot.

But considering the portion, Suixiang estimated that it was enough for at least twenty people.

Take the tumorous beast meat for example. The deliveryman said that there were more than 100 kilograms of freshly cut meat, and the parts selected were the most suitable for hot pot.

It was a good thing that the delivery guy was quite strong, and with Suika helping him, it would have taken a lot of effort for someone else to carry this cart of food into the house.

"You don't have a refrigerator here, so it's best to put the tumor beast meat in a fresh-keeping box and take it out when you want to eat it. The ones that are within today's time are the freshest.

If it's going to take more than a day, I suggest you put it in a refrigerator."

When Suixiang signed for the package, the young man enthusiastically explained it to her.

After thanking the delivery boy, Suixiang called Shi Huaiya

"You're sending so much at once, are you planning to starve us to death?"

"Hey, if you can't finish it, you can continue eating tomorrow." Shi Huaiya said indifferently.

"But this meat won't be fresh tomorrow."

"Then send fresh meat tomorrow."

"What about the meat that we didn't finish today?"

……

The other party was speechless for a while.

"By the way, I have a question." Suixiang said after looking at the food she signed for.

"What's the matter?" The little tiger was a little angry and embarrassed because he couldn't answer the previous question.

"That fresh-cut wart meat won't be considered fresh-cut by the time Old Chen and the others get home..."

"So, if you want to eat something fresh, it's best to hold the beast's butt and chew it.

It has to be cooked at exactly 00:01 when the sun just comes out in the morning and the sunlight shines on the butt of the tumor beast.

Isn’t it the freshest now?”

The little tiger had a rare opportunity to show off his sharp tongue.

"It doesn't have to be that new."

Suixiang thought about it and realized that she was being too picky.

Even if it was fresh-cut food in the past, inland areas, apart from freshwater fish, it was impossible to raise a cow in the kitchen for beef, and then "cut it fresh" when the customer ordered...

Therefore, the ingredients are fresh, slaughtered in the morning, transported at noon, and then arrive at various stores in the evening.

The fresh food preservation technology in Terra is no worse than in the previous life. Even if these tumorous beast meats are served on the table in the evening, they can indeed be called fresh-cut.

At seven o'clock in the afternoon, Shi Huaiya came into the house first, carrying two large buckets in her hands.

"Come on, come on, help me collect this. This is the new milk that just arrived. I specially collected a bucket of it. And this yogurt is also the latest one I asked the factory to get for me."

When Suika took it, she casually asked, "Is this milk pasteurized?"

"Of course, you think I'm an idiot..." Shi Huaiya rolled her eyes and sat down on the sofa.

"How long will they take?" Looking at the various foods placed around her, Shi Huaiya felt that she was starting to negotiate on her own.

"We just arrived at the checkpoint. If we're fast, we can be home in half an hour. Beer or Suleda?" Suika said as she took out a bottle of beer and a bottle of soda.

"Let's drink Su Leda... Let's drink beer later... Phew~ It turns out that drinking soda is more refreshing." Shi Huaiya hesitated for a second, then decisively took the soda, opened it, and took a big gulp.

Seeing her drinking so happily, Suixiang couldn't help but open a bottle and drink a sip.

Hiccup~

This soda is so sweet and punchy.

But it’s so cool~~

Chapter 444: Chief of Staff Suixiang

After drinking the soda, they estimated that it was about time and started heating the hot pot.

On the other side, in the Guards' car.

Years ago, I had been trying to figure out who wrote this passage.

Although many people know about my skills, they are basically all old guys.

I heard the other person's voice was quite low on the phone before.

But the voice was so unfamiliar that she couldn't think of anyone who matched it.

Soon the vehicle arrived at Xingxiong's house.

Before I even entered the door, a familiar spicy smell rushed out of the house.

Her eyes lit up

"This smell... is it the hot pot from Shang Shuju's downstairs house?"

As she spoke, she pushed open the door.

She looked around and didn't see anyone she knew, and her heart sank.

When she saw the note and smelled the hot pot just now, she thought it was one of her brothers or sisters, but it seemed not to be the case.

However, since the other party knew her so well and invited her so warmly, and she herself had a cheerful personality, she didn't think much about it and sat down next to the big-horned woman at her warm invitation.

"Beer or soda?"

Suika took out some drinks from the freezer nearby and handed them over.

"It's all good... Wow, this beast meat is so fresh." He picked up a piece of meat, rinsed it a few times and put it in his mouth, then gave a thumbs up.

Before she could finish her admiration, she saw Cuixiang handing her a dry dish made of a mixture of dried chili powder and pepper powder.

"Great, great, I didn't expect that I could not only eat Juxialou's hot pot in Longmen, but also have such a complete set of facilities."

Although there are many questions to ask, the most important thing now is to eat.

As the saying goes, if you are not active in eating, there is something wrong with your thinking.

In order to avoid the awkwardness and cold silence caused by the question, Nian simply kept silent and ate first.

An hour later, everyone was lying side by side on the sofa, rubbing their bellies.

"Hiccup~ Ever since I left Shangshu, I've been craving this hot pot day and night, and today I finally had it."

Nian sighed as he gently fanned his face with his hands.

"Go back and eat. My feet are on you. If you want to leave, who can stop you?" Suixiang raised Ibuki's ladle and took a big sip of liquor to soothe the spicy taste in her mouth before complaining.

Nian glanced at Suixiang and knew from their previous conversation that the person who called her here was this big-horned girl.

"Go back? Is that easy?" Nian looked as if he knew nothing.

"Why, are you afraid of being blocked in the middle of the road by the people from Simuitai and attacked by a high-speed battleship, or are you afraid of waking up that drunkard?"

Suika leaned back on the sofa and started typing after dinner.

"You really know us?" Nian stared at Suixiang with a sharp gaze.

“Have you ever hidden it?
