Chapter 36 Stove

Seeing Mo Hua's smile, Master Chen and the others also became happy.

Master Chen couldn't help but praise: "Little brother, this is amazing. In my entire life, this is the first time I've seen a monk as young as you can draw a formation."

Mo Hua was a little embarrassed by the praise, and said shyly: "Master Chen, let's see if the stove with the formation painted on it can be used."

Master Chen said hello, and he and a few strong apprentices reinstalled the stove and threw a few spiritual stones into it. After a while, a flame ignited in the stove.

Master Chen nodded and said: "No problem, except that the specifications are a bit smaller, this stove is no different from the ones in the dining room that cost a lot of money to forge. The fire is even more intense."

Mo Hua breathed a sigh of relief, and then Master Chen asked Dazhu's disciples to deliver the stove to Mo Hua's home.

After discussing with his parents, Mo Hua finally decided to open the restaurant in his own home.

One is convenience, and the other is that the nearby shops are too expensive. It was originally a small business, and I spent a lot of money to rent a shop. If I lost money, I would really go bankrupt.

Moreover, although most of the people living in the place where Mo Hua lives are poor casual cultivators, it is close to the main road, has a lot of people, and is quite lively during festivals. As long as the food you make is delicious, you don't have to worry about not being able to sell it.

Mo Hua's home is relatively small, with only two ordinary rooms and one living room, and a small courtyard outside. It is considered the basic layout of a Qi Lianqi Sanxiu house. It is fine for a family of three to live in, but it is not enough to open a restaurant.

Mo Shan discussed with several neighbors and paid some spiritual stones every month to build their yards. Then he asked friends from the demon hunting team to help him renovate a kitchen and connect several yards together, so that the courtyard There is a large open space where some tables and chairs can be placed for people to eat and rest.

The stove was a bit big and couldn't fit into the storage bag, so Dazhu and a few disciples carried the stove to the ink painter's room. When a group of people carried Mo Shan to the painter, Mo Shan and his wife were still cleaning up the yard, digging soil and building walls. The yard looked a bit messy.

Dazhu and the others worked tirelessly to help install the stove, then sat down and drank a cup of tea before leaving.

Although Mo Hua had promised to make a guarantee before and was always reassuring in his work, when they saw that Mo Hua actually asked someone to forge a stove, and the stove was right in front of them, Mo Shan and his wife still found it unbelievable.

Liu Ruhua touched the stove and said: "It looks similar to those in the dining hall, just smaller, but obviously stronger and more exquisite in workmanship, but it will cost a lot of spiritual stones."

"I helped Master Chen fix the formation in the refining furnace. He gave me a 50% discount. Moreover, I also drew the formation in the furnace, so I didn't spend too many spirit stones." Mo Hua was a little proud. .

Liu Ruhua and Mo Shan looked at each other. They only knew that Mo Hua had some talent in formations. They didn't expect that Mo Hua could not only help others repair formations, but could even draw formations on spiritual weapons by themselves.

Liu Ruhua took the ink painting into his arms and praised: "The painting is amazing!"

Mo Shan also looked at his son, his eyes filled with relief.

Originally, he was worried about Mo Hua's physical weakness, but now that he saw Mo Hua's talent in formations, he knew that even if he couldn't refine his body, he would be able to make a living by relying on formations alone in the future, and he wouldn't have to take risks like himself to fight monsters. Naturally, It couldn't be better.

"Mom, let me tell you how to use the stove."

Mo Hua took Liu Ruhua's hand and told her how to use the stove, the amount of spiritual stone, and the control of the fire. This is actually not difficult, Liu Ruhua will know it after listening to it once.

Liu Ruhua used the stove to make a dinner, a pot of clear rice porridge, a few simple vegetables, and white and soft steamed buns. It was simple and delicious.

Mo Hua was deeply moved when he ate the food cooked by his mother. Especially recently, most of the meals at home are made by Mo Shan, so the taste is self-evident.

Mo Hua said bluntly: "Mom, the food you cook is much more delicious than what dad cooks!"

"Little bastard!" Mo Shan ruffled Mo Hua's hair angrily, and when he saw the smile on his wife's face, he couldn't help but laugh.

After the family of three finished eating, Liu Ruhua asked, "It's okay to open a restaurant, but what should we sell?"

Both Mo Shan and Liu Ruhua looked at Mo Hua.

Mo Hua met his parents' gaze and said, "Beef!"

Mo Shan was stunned for a while, frowned and said: "Then where does the beef come from? Meat with spiritual energy is very expensive, we can't afford it, and there are casual cultivators nearby, so the beef cannot be sold."

Mo Hua said: "Dad, haven't you killed bison before? Just use the meat."

"Bison meat... is so hard, dry and woody that no one wants to eat it."

"Then stew it for two days and two nights. No matter how hard the meat is, it should be stewed to death. As long as it is stewed long enough, it will be delicious."

"Stew for two days and two nights..." Mo Shan couldn't help but turn his eyes to the stove, "So, in addition to allowing your mother to cook without spiritual power, you forged this stove to stew meat..."

"Yeah!" Mo Hua nodded.

"Is this okay?" Mo Shan hesitated.

"It can be done." Liu Ruhua's eyes lit up, "Meat with spiritual power should be eaten fresh and tender. It does not need to be stewed for too long, otherwise it will lose its spiritual power. However, these meats are very expensive, and families like ours cannot afford it. of."

"Although meat without spiritual power is cheap, it is hard and requires a long time to stew. Ordinary cultivators can afford it, but they don't have the conditions to stew it, so they rarely eat it."

"With this stove, you can stew cheap but delicious meat. Even ordinary casual cultivators can afford it."

Mo Shan nodded and said, "It's only two days and two nights, and it will cost a lot of spirit stones just to drive the fire."

Mo Hua counted on his fingers, and then said, "It should cost about ten spirit stones, but one furnace can stew a lot of meat, and if it is sold, it should not be a loss."

"Okay, I will try to stew a pot tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, and then calculate the cost." Liu Ruhua said.

Mo Shan nodded and said, "I will get some more bison meat. After eating at home, Lao Zhao should have some at home. If this kind of meat can be sold, the meat of monsters hunted in the future can be sold, and everyone's life can be better."

After speaking, it was getting late, and Liu Ruhua urged Mo Hua to go to bed quickly.

Mo Hua stood up and suddenly thought of a question, and asked:

"Mom, it shouldn't be too difficult to forge a stove, but why do ordinary casual cultivators rarely use it?"

"Silly child," Liu Ruhua touched Mo Hua's face and laughed:

"Let's not talk about refining the equipment. If you don't draw the formation on the stove yourself, how many more spirit stones will it cost to ask other formation masters?"

"It's so difficult to be a formation master. Once you become a formation master, you will naturally want to go further, rely on the family and the sect, draw higher-level formations, and earn more spirit stones. How can you care about us poor casual cultivators?"

"Not only formation masters, all cultivators are the same. When people go up, they won't look down..."

Mo Hua's mood was very complicated and he couldn't speak for a while.
