Capítulo 815: Chapter 817: Special Beef
“No problem.”
“None.”
Everyone said there were no issues, and Nian Shutong glanced at the Light Computer and said, “Today is Saturday. Little River Live will broadcast as usual in the evening. I’ll add some extra content for everyone and then announce our livestream schedule to the public.”
“Master Fan, please prepare the content for tonight’s broadcast, you can take full charge.”
Master Fan immediately replied, “Okay, Boss.”
After discussing this, everyone went their separate ways.
Elder Hua was walking and reading an ancient book, if there weren’t so many people around, he might have fallen into the creek.
Nian Shutong noticed Elder Hua’s condition, and he truly resembled his junior disciple, Elder Zhu from the library.
But then she remembered Elder Zhu from the library had promised to help find some retired teachers for her. Should she prepare living arrangements for them, or perhaps build a small library first and expand it later?
Yes, that’s what she should do. Nian Shutong started taking action.
She found Rubble and started preparing a few houses for the potential teachers who had yet to materialize. She wasn’t sure how many, but better to be prepared.
When Rubble saw Nian Shutong coming over, the first thing he said was, “Ms. Nian Shutong’s return makes my life so fulfilling.”
“Rubble, are you saying that with my return, your workload has increased?”
Rubble, with his mechanical big head, looked seriously at Nian Shutong and said, “Ms. Nian Shutong, your understanding is very accurate.”
Nian Shutong was already immune to Rubble’s way of speaking, so she simply left her requirements for the houses and the library and then left.
She was still very busy, first making a trip to the silk factory, checking everything thoroughly, and everything was normal.
Not only was everything normal, someone had invented a new pattern weaving technique, which Nian Shutong found very pleasing and satisfactory.
It seems that the masses are the really smart ones.
After leaving the silk factory, the long-absent System Xiao Ba finally spoke, not verbally, but by issuing rewards as a system.
“It’s really not easy to see rewards in one’s lifetime.”
“Ding! Please check the rewards: twenty new plant seeds, ten new fruit trees, and one exceptionally flavorful seed bull.”
Nian Shutong accepted everything, checked the seeds, and found cotton at the top of the list, followed by linen, bamboo, etc., most for making fabrics.
The rest were some food items, with fruit trees randomly adding ten kinds of fruits, but with many regional restrictions, like watermelon for the desert and some tropical fruits.
As for the final bull, after Nian Shutong looked it over, she only had one question.
“Is this bull you gave me? Are you sure it’s not a little ancestor?”
“Why does she want to eat watermelon, listen to music, and eat only the freshest grass tips? Is this raising a bull?”
“People in the interstellar don’t live as well as it does.”
“If someone else saw this bull’s lifestyle, they’d be so jealous they’d want to kill it.”
Nian Shutong’s series of complaints made Xiao Ba quietly wait for a while. When she finished, he immediately responded.
“Xiao Ba knows the host has many questions, so in response, Xiao Ba prepared a piece of beef for the host, please enjoy the snowflake beef.”
“Hmph! Don’t play that game with me, snowflake beef, I’ve eaten everything, the Immortal Realm’s Insect Beasts weren’t spared, no matter how delicious it can’t be that extraordinary.”
Nian Shutong took out this piece of beef and first gave it a look.
“It looks pretty, but that’s not a reason to do whatever you want.”
She took the piece of beef and chose the simplest and most crude method, directly searing it.
Nian Shutong really operated in a very simple manner, using a thin piece of rock picked up on the spot, she made a fire and placed the beef on the rock, without even a drop of oil or any seasoning, and started searing it.
“Host, you can sear it to medium rare or medium, it tastes great.”
“No! I don’t want that, I want it well done. Humans went through all the trouble of using fire, why abandon such a good habit?”
Nian Shutong’s slightly picky behavior had Xiao Ba quietly waiting in her Divine Sense.
The time continued; as she waited, Nian Shutong started having a bad feeling because the meat had no fishy smell, and she hadn’t done any preparation.
Not only was there no fishy smell, but the texture on the meat was becoming more and more beautiful, and the aroma was becoming more and more appealing; it was the natural taste of the meat.
Just when it was about to be ready, two more people appeared in front of Nian Shutong.
One was Haha, the other was Uncle Long.
Nian Shutong calmly flipped the meat and looked at the two squatting in front of her.
“Uncle Long, I can understand Haha’s keen nose since he’s canine, but I didn’t expect you to be so sharp.”
Uncle Long just raised his eyelids and said with his mouth twitching, “So ignorant.”
When Nian Shutong heard this, alright, she thought, it’s still my fault.
She then asked Haha, “Haha, not working anymore?”
“Working.”
“Then why are you here?”
“To help a good person eat meat. Eating too much meat causes inner heat, not good.”
Haha’s answer made Nian Shutong feel like her own silly son had finally made progress, but why was the progression in conning me?
“Little girl, is it ready?”
“Good person, Haha can eat now?”
Nian Shutong helplessly picked up the meat, a knife appeared in her palm, and she began slicing the beef.
“It’s ready.”
A palm-sized piece of beef was sliced into less than ten pieces. Nian Shutong picked up a piece and put it into her mouth.
It melted in her mouth, with a slight fruity aroma, and none of the beef’s fishy smell or tough fibrous texture.
The taste was indeed delicious.
Nian Shutong kind of liked it, but when she looked down again, there was no meat left, not even a scrap for her.
Opposite her, Uncle Long and Haha were immersively licking their fingers.
“Little girl, stew a pot for me tonight.”
“Good person, Haha also wants a pot.”
Nian Shutong looked at the two unceremonious people, snorted and said, “No.”
“Little girl, that’s not fair. I’ve been watching the house for you tirelessly, how can you not even feed me a piece of meat?” Uncle Long turned his head to Haha and asked, “Isn’t this what Elder Hua called elder abuse?”
“Yes! Haha will testify for you; the good person doesn’t give you meat or Haha either.”
Talking about this, Haha was even wiping tears while looking at Nian Shutong with grievance, “Good person, do you not love Haha anymore?”
Nian Shutong only felt her temples throbbing as she looked at the two actors.
“Who has been educating you lately? Your conversations have really improved.”
“Also, even if you try this with me, there’s nothing to eat, Ancestor Niu hasn’t grown up yet, you can’t eat it.”
