Chapter 138 Edible Quartz
Heath was standing in the kitchen, thinking about this problem. He had to say that Lao Junsha's request was a little difficult, but of course it was not impossible to do. After all, Heath noticed that there was glutinous rice in the cafeteria of this place.
Glutinous rice meets Lao Junsha's requirements very well. It is soft, sticky and easy to eat, and can also be made sweet. As for the meat, it can be cut into pieces and made into sweet and sour flavor, then wrapped in glutinous rice. However, this way of eating always reminds Heath of the glutinous rice balls he had eaten on the street before.
"Forget it. After all, there aren't many ingredients here. Although I can make other things, those dishes take a long time to cook, and I'm afraid the customers won't be able to wait too long." Heath looked at the ingredients in the cafeteria and quickly made a decision.
There are many dishes made with glutinous rice, but if you want to satisfy your sweet taste, Heath thinks making glutinous rice balls is a good idea. Otherwise, you can also consider making glutinous rice chicken. The taste of glutinous rice chicken is still very good, and Heath himself likes it very much.
There was really no technical difficulty in making glutinous rice balls. Heath didn't even want to ask Farfetch'd to help him. He quickly made the glutinous rice balls by himself in no time and brought them to Lao Junsha who was sitting outside waiting.
"Please be careful of burning your mouth." Heath looked at Lao . Lao Junsha looked at the food in front of her curiously. She had never seen this kind of food before, but judging from the rice on the outside, this should be glutinous rice. She just didn't know if it could meet her requirements when it tasted.
Lao Junsha picked up a glutinous rice ball, blew on it, then carefully put it into her mouth and took a bite. The sweet and sticky taste instantly filled Lao Junsha's taste buds, and with another bite, she could taste the meat. However, the meat made by Heath was very special. The meat was very soft and tender, and it had a sweet and sour taste, which made Lao Junsha give him a thumbs up.
"Little guy, your cooking skills are good, better than mine." Lao Junsha exclaimed. Heath's cooking skills are really amazing. Lao Junsha started learning to cook after retirement, but her food is not as delicious as Heath's.
"Thank you for your compliment." Heath smiled. His cooking skills were naturally impeccable, but what made Heath happiest was that the progress of his Chef's Eye mission had increased again. According to this situation, Heath could completely complete his Chef's Eye mission in the Quartz Alliance, which made Heath a little excited.
Heath was very curious about what changes would happen after he got the Chef's Eye, and what functions the Chef's Eye would have. Heath was very much looking forward to it, and he felt that it might be a qualitative improvement for himself.
"Very good, no wonder you would think of asking about the specialty ingredients of our Quartz Alliance... But I have no complaints about your cooking skills. This thing may be more useful to me than to you. " Lao Junsha smiled and stood up.
Heath cast a curious look at him. Is Lao Junsha planning to give him something?
"Wait for me here. I'm old, and I don't carry that thing with me." Lao Junsha said to Heath with a smile, then walked into the teleportation array and disappeared. Heath also waited patiently.
After a while, Lao Junsha came again, holding a piece of quartz in her hand. It didn't look very big, only the size of an apple.
"This is..." Heath was a little surprised. Could this be the quartz that Lao Junsha mentioned? The specialty ingredient of the Quartz Alliance!
"Well, this is the specialty ingredient of the Quartz Alliance, edible quartz. However, the method of making it has been lost. I have studied it for a long time, but I haven't found a way to cook it." Lao Junsha sighed, then took the quartz to Heath.
Heath subconsciously took out his food identifier, which was already usable.
[Pure quartz, edible, poisonous, and a food with a very rich taste. However, because it is extremely difficult to cook, if you don’t master the cooking method, it is just a piece of mineral. It requires extremely strong super powers to twist and remove the toxic components before it can be processed and eaten .]
The corners of Heath's mouth twitched. The good news was that this thing was indeed edible quartz. Although it was poisonous, it proved that Heath was not wrong. He had indeed found the specialty ingredient of the Quartz Alliance.
The problem is that the cooking method of this thing is extremely demanding, and it requires extremely strong superpowers to distort and remove the toxic ingredients. So how strong is this food identifier? Can a Pokémon like Alakazam meet the extremely strong requirements? Heath didn't quite understand.
"Can you give this to me?" Heath looked at Lao Junsha excitedly. This thing was very hard to find, and now there was finally a ready-made one. Heath didn't want to give it up easily.
"Of course~" Lao Junsha said with a smile, and Heath instantly grasped the quartz, but he hesitated again.
Heath is not a fool. He knows that there is no such thing as kindness without reason in this world, unless it is family. And this seemingly giving of a precious gift often hides its due price.
"So, what is the price?" Heath asked Old Junsha.
"All of this." Lao Junsha opened her hands, and Heath swallowed. He was really worried that Lao Junsha would take off her mask to reveal Gul'dan's face, or take out a cup of green suspicious liquid for him to drink.
Fortunately, Lao Junsha did not do that. She just opened her arms, as if hugging the entire cafeteria.
"?" Heath slowly typed out a question mark.
"I would like to trouble you to take over my responsibility of preparing breakfast, lunch and dinner for the Junshas during your stay in the Quartz Alliance. I can give you this quartz." Old Junsha explained, and Heath touched his chin.
There are many Junsha in the Quartz Alliance, so Heath himself is not sure how much he will have to make, but it is definitely not easy, and he has to cook three meals a day, which is too demanding. However, Heath does not want to give up the quartz on hand, after all, it is a rare ingredient.
"Just dinner. I still have to go out to set up a stall in the morning and at noon." Heath shook his head. Three meals a day were still too many. If it was just dinner, Heath would still be able to do it.
"Deal!" Lao Junsha happily stretched out her hand, and Heath subconsciously shook it, but for some reason, Heath always felt like he was being cheated. Why did he have this feeling?
Heath walked out of Junsha's dormitory in a daze. He had reached an agreement with the old Junsha. The Junshas would be responsible for providing the ingredients, and Heath would only be responsible for cooking dinner. The deadline would be the day Heath left the Quartz Alliance, and the reward would naturally be this quartz.
