Seeing Brad, Ariel asked Buffy directly. Brad went back to his room and called out buffy. They went downstairs and stood next to the table full of eggplant leaves.
Ariel took out an eggplant leaf from it and said to Buffy, "Buffy, do you goblins know this plant?"
Buffy poked her head out of Brad's shoulder, carefully observed it for a moment, and asked innocently, "what's this? It's dry. I've never seen it before. "
Ariel's eyes flashed a touch of helplessness: "it's dried."
At this moment, the flower goblin immediately had a suddenly realized expression: "dried? How can I recognize it? "
Look, look at this look of righteousness! If it wasn't late now, Ariel really wanted to find the rose of the flower goblin and let her discipline her own flower goblin who was ignorant and could be so upright and bright.
Ariel sighed helplessly and said, "so, will you dispel the natural magic of poison? I want to try chewing these leaves. I'll try to tear off a small piece to chew. If I am poisoned, can you detoxify me immediately? "
Ariel has decided that if the flower goblin answers that she doesn't understand anything this time, she will deduct her salary immediately! You can't be such a waste in your guild!
"Ah, detoxification? If the toxin in is natural magic and the toxin is not very strong, I have no problem. But President, you can't eat too much at one go. "
"No, the president can't do that."
When Buffy expressed that she could detoxify, the cream rushed down from the second floor. He put his hand in front of Ariel and said seriously——
"President, you shouldn't come even if you want to test the poison! In our guild, all of us are stronger than you, so even if we want to test the poison, it should be us! For example, I can try the toxin of this eggplant leaf. "
Seeing the cream's active request, Brad next to him finally recovered. He turned and grabbed a handful of eggplant leaves from the package and had to put them in his mouth.
(blood language) stop
Just as his hand was just raised, the hemp potato on one side jumped up immediately. His small arm grabbed Brad's strong wrist and broke it in one breath.
Looking at the scattered eggplant leaves, the frightened crisp tower on the second floor finally breathed out. She also hurriedly said, "president, and everyone, you should not do this. Since this eggplant leaf is clearly poisonous, we should not try it. "
Ariel looked at the eggplant leaves that fell to the ground. Now they were cleaning up, but they didn't have an idea for a moment.
Rationally speaking, since these eggplant leaves are to be sold to humans, it is obvious that these things will flow into the hands of the most ordinary people.
The members of mermaid song are very strong, because they are very strong, so they should also have strong toxin resistance... At least, they should be stronger than their complete ordinary people.
So if you want to test the toxicity, the best thing is to do it yourself.
But seeing that Brad was now so direct that she was about to grab the leaf and put it in her mouth, Ariel was afraid and didn't dare to try again. Lest this silly big real brain can't turn around at once, and take the initiative to eat so many poisonous eggplant leaves in one breath.
But now, looking at these eggplant leaves, which obviously have full economic potential, Ariel is worried.
There is no doubt that this is a treasure mountain.
But how do you get into Baoshan? This has become a difficult problem in front of her wealth.
"How about using it?"
Just then Margo, standing in front of the back door, suddenly opened his mouth.
Tesla, who stood next to her, also turned his head, looked at the female priest next to her and asked curiously, "what do you suck? These leaves... Sucked? How to suck? "
Margo glanced at Tesla, walked forward, took out a leaf from the bag in glutinous rice's hand, then turned his head and looked around, went behind the counter again, and took the pocket fire from the shelf.
With a slap, the fire burned in Margo's hand. She put the dry eggplant leaf slightly close to the fire. Soon, the eggplant leaf was lit. When Margo released her hand and the pocket fire went out, Margo shook her hand holding the eggplant leaf and fanned out the fire on the eggplant leaf.
At that moment, wisps of light smoke began to float from the extinguished eggplant leaves.
This smoke smell is no longer so bitter and spicy, but highlights the fragrance that Ariel smelled on her copper hand yesterday.
At this point, Ariel's mouth couldn't help opening. She stepped forward, took the eggplant leaf that was still flickering at the edge from Margo's hand, and smelled the taste
"Cough... Cough...!"
Close to the smell will still feel choking. However, the taste is obviously much better!
"This is... Cough... What's going on? How did you think of... This? "
Facing Ariel's cough and happy expression, Margo's face didn't have any relaxed color. She just shrugged slightly and said expressionless——
"In the past, when I was a mistress, several nobles liked to enjoy this kind of thing afterwards. The price of cut tobacco is very expensive and the output is low, but the method used is probably to press it into the pipe, ignite it and burn it slowly. If you see more, you will know. "
Obviously, now seems to have found a way to rationalize the processing of eggplant leaves?
Ariel looked at Margo, and the expression on her face gradually changed from dull at the beginning to happy at the back!
She clapped her hand and smelled the smell of the burning eggplant leaves again... It was a pity that she immediately coughed twice because the smoke was so choking that she stepped back two steps.
"This thing... Should be very toxic? Cut tobacco, I know. Can this kind of thing replace cut tobacco? There shouldn't be much difference between eating directly and smoking directly? "
For Ariel's doubt, Margo breathed out slowly. She stepped forward, took the now dying eggplant leaf, leaned close to her nose and took a sip.
But a moment later, she opened her mouth slowly, and the smoke came out of her mouth.
Then, she looked at the eggplant leaf, carefully aftertasted the taste inside, and said, "I didn't eat it, but inhaled it and spit it out... I've learned a little before. But I don't like the taste very much. I only use it when serving. "
Now, the eggplant leaf in her hand was finally extinguished, burning most of the leaves and leaving a little ash. Margo continued——
"In this way, the toxicity of this thing in the human body will not be much. And you can taste it. HMM... it tastes good, not so spicy, with a little fragrance. After careful aftertaste, there will be a little sweetness in the throat. "
Tesla on one side heard Margo's description, and his face showed curiosity. He also came over, picked up a piece of eggplant leaf, took out his pocket, lit the fire and took a sip.
"Cough! This smell... Cough... How to say? "
For the first time, Tesla still seemed a little uncomfortable. After coughing several times in a row, he took a breath, came close again and took a breath. Then he looked up like Margo just now. After a little drumming in his throat for a moment, he opened his mouth, and the smoke finally came out of his mouth.
"Hoo... Cough... Taste... It's much better... I don't taste sweet... Only spicy..."
Cocoa looked happy and wanted to come and reach out, but the crisp tower next to her grabbed her and said, "little girl, don't eat this kind of thing. After all, it's poisonous."
Surrounded by Su Tara, cocoa's face showed a touch of disappointment and rejection. However, seeing that Ariel was holding her nose and retreating slightly, she was satisfied and quiet.
"Ariel, we, success?"
Although Mashu didn't understand what these humans were talking about, she saw a little hope from the faces of these Mermaid singers.
Ariel breathed out, fanned out the smoke in front of her, thought about it, and said——
"Success, half."
"Half?" Mashu seemed a little puzzled. She went to her mother and reached out to take out an eggplant leaf from the package, just like Tesla. She reached out to get a pocket fire.
However, her hand had not touched the pocket fire, but the cocoa over there held out her hand and pressed her.
"Little sister, minors can't suck eggplant leaves! You look younger than me, and you shouldn't smoke. "
At this moment, cocoa looked at the little blood clan with a big sister's face.
Mashu raised her head and looked at Cocoa seriously. After a moment of silence, she pointed to cocoa's nose and said, "how old are you?"
Cocoa snorted and said, "fifteen years old! It is the age of growth! How old are you? Ten“
Mashu turned his finger and pointed to himself: "I, this year, 20."
At this moment, cocoa's mouth twitched for a moment.
Similarly, Ariel, who has always looked at Ma Shu with a pair of eyes at her little sister, also stumbled involuntarily.
You know, Ariel is only eighteen this year.
"All right, all right! Let's talk about eggplant leaves. "
Ariel said slowly, holding her chin——
"I said we were half successful because although eggplant leaves are very similar to cut tobacco, cut tobacco is not competitive."
While thinking, he continued——
"I know cut tobacco. Smoking requires the use of cigarette bags, cigarette guns, cut tobacco nozzles, and flints. Although the taste after lighting seems very good, on the whole, it is not a very convenient way to eat. "
"Some young masters in Duke Jinguo's house also like smoking silk. They don't like lighting their own cigarettes, but let the servants prepare them for them. Therefore, if you want to light a cigarette, you should clean the cigarette gun, take the cut tobacco out of the special container, insert it into the cigarette holder, and press it tightly with the pressure nozzle. "
"The key problem is that the cut tobacco can't be pressed too tightly, because it won't burn clean in the back. You can't press it too loosely. In this way, there will be too much smoke in your mouth and the taste will become worse. "
"For ordinary people, such a set of operation process is too troublesome. Therefore, generally speaking, only aristocrats with money and leisure will enjoy the pleasure of smoking. "
"Well, for us, if we want to promote this kind of eggplant leaf, we must promote a lot of cigarette holders at the same time, and specially customize cigarette bags and adjust cut tobacco pressure nozzles. At the same time, prepare handy flint. I really doubt how many people will buy such a set of things... "
Ariel went to the table and looked at the eggplant leaves in the glutinous rice package. She took a handful out of it, carefully rubbed it in her hand, kneaded it into a ball, and finally formed a cut tobacco ball the size of a small fingernail. Watching the cut tobacco ball rolling in her palm, her thoughts gradually fell into silence.
"Well, how about wrapping them up with other things?"
Tesla came up, looked at the cut tobacco ball in Ariel's hand, and suddenly said.
Ariel was stunned and asked, "wrap it up?"
Tesla nodded. He took out some eggplant leaves like Ariel, then rubbed them up and rubbed them into a long stick shape.
It's just that such eggplant leaves are too brittle to hold well in your hand. He took this section of eggplant leaves and looked around, then went to the counter over there, took out one of the unwritten paper, tore off a little, and then carefully wrapped these eggplant leaves.
His packaging technique is not very clever, so after wrapping, the thickness of the paper looks thicker than the eggplant leaf.
However, when Tesla came to Ariel with this paper wrapped eggplant leaf, he said, "well, how about this? In this way, eggplant leaves can be completely wrapped in paper and easy to carry. Then, if you want to suck, put one end into your mouth and... "
He put one end of the wrapped eggplant leaves into his mouth, then conveniently picked up the pocket fire from the table, put it to the other end of the wrapped eggplant leaves and ignited it.
As the pocket fire snapped, the small flame lit one end of the packaged eggplant leaves. Then
"Wow Wow!"
The ignited paper did not go out as quickly as Tesla thought, and then burned quietly. Perhaps it was because there were too many paper bags. The small flame immediately burned at the tip of his fingers, almost burning his lips in the twinkling of an eye, which scared him to spit out the packaged eggplant leaves.
Others hurried forward to put out the fire on the ground, while Tesla was scared back, sat on the ground, covered his chest and gasped.
Margo leaned over, reached out and patted him on the shoulder. At the same time, she gave him a treatment and said with a smile, "what's the matter? Do you assemblers like to light yourself? Hahaha, you should be glad you didn't burn yourself. "
Tesla's face turned red, embarrassed to touch the back of his head and said helplessly: "it seems that this method doesn't work..."
"No, this method should work."
Ariel picked up the packaged eggplant leaves that had almost been burned off from the ground and opened them carefully. I saw that most of the burned were the outer wrapping paper, and the eggplant leaves inside were not burned much. Seeing this, her heart suddenly had a bottom——
"The only question now is how we should wrap these eggplant leaves. At least, the number of layers of the package should not be too many, and the paper used should not be too dry. On the other hand, in order to avoid the taste produced by the packaging paper disturbing the taste of eggplant leaves, we should even carefully consider the type of packaging paper. "
She turned her head and said slowly to the cassava and glutinous rice mother and daughter: "(blood language) now, we need to find a way to wrap these eggplant leaves perfectly without confusing the taste and burn them smoothly. Guys, this matter also needs everyone's efforts. I wonder if you are willing to work together? "
The blood clan mother and daughter looked at each other, and Mashu nodded seriously at once. But there was some hesitation in the eyes of glutinous rice.
But after seeing that her daughter agreed so readily, the mother could only sigh and nod gently.
Now that it's settled, the next step is to study the wrapping method of these eggplant leaves.
At first, Ariel thought it was not a difficult thing. After all, it's just a job of increasing eggplant leaves or reducing paper.
But after she really did it, she realized that nothing in the world could be called easy.
If you use less paper, you may not be able to wrap the eggplant leaves well.
But if you use more, you will burn it in one breath as just now, and you can't breathe the taste of eggplant leaves inside.
After the cheese and dak came back from the patrol, they also joined in the process of finding a way to wrap eggplant leaves.
In this way, it was almost midnight. Except for a few blood families, all the eyes of the mermaid song began to fight, and they couldn't hold up one by one.
Seeing this, Ariel can only let everyone go back to have a rest and prepare to think about what good wrapping method there is tomorrow.
As for the mother and daughter of glutinous rice and Mashu, she originally wanted them to go back today without continuing to study here. However, seeing that Mashu was still seriously studying the packaging, Ariel raised her mouth slightly, nodded, stretched, and went back to her room to sleep.
