Chapter 661: Clues to Special Ingredients
"It's such a nice day today." Heath yawned, then drove his food truck towards the vegetable market in Vermilion City. He originally thought that it would be a rainy day today, after all, the thunder last night sounded so deafening. But after getting up today, Heath found that the ground outside was dry, without any rain at all. But this was quite good, after all, if it rains, generally speaking, the restaurant business will be affected.
After all, we can't expect every customer to come and eat in the rain. On rainy days, people often choose to order takeout or something. However, when it comes to takeout, Heath thought of something else. That is, he originally planned to join the ranks of takeout merchants. After all, there are similar to Tuan and Leme in his previous life. It's just that Heath has been traveling, so he has not joined these takeout merchants for the time being. Although it doesn't have any impact now, if Heath starts to settle in a city for a long time in the future, Heath thinks it is better for him to join.
After all, with the progress of the times and the development of society, the way people eat will also undergo some strange changes. For example, some people prefer to order takeout rather than go out to eat. If Heath does not join these takeout merchants, it may also lead to the problem of missing out on some customers. In fact, Heath had also considered whether to start his own takeout business, which is similar to opening his own store and then specializing in takeout, but Heath does not have much time to recruit delivery riders, so he can only put this idea aside for the time being.
"But this market in Vermilion City is really huge." Heath got off the dining car and looked at the magnificent market in front of him and couldn't help but sigh. Should we say that it is worthy of being an international metropolis in the Kanto region? This doesn't look like the market in other cities.
However, Heath did not come here to buy vegetables this time. His main purpose was to investigate the specialty ingredients of Vermilion City, and then find a way to buy them, and then make a product that could complete his special achievement task. On the one hand, it could also be used to entertain guests. On the other hand, Heath also wanted to see what the specialty ingredients of Vermilion City looked like.
This time, Seath walked in with Farfetch and Lalthal. Originally, Seath was still thinking about whether to bring Zoroark and the others, but Zoroark said that she preferred to lie down at home and play games, so Seath did not call her, but took Farfetch and walked into the vegetable market with Lalthal.
As soon as he walked into the vegetable market, Heath felt that this place was indeed different. Generally speaking, in Heath's impression, vegetable markets are always muddy, but the vegetable market here in Vermilion Leaf City is very clean and tidy. You can't see any water when you walk on it, which surprised Heath.
Moreover, compared to the vegetable market in Heath's impression, the vegetable market in Vermilion City looks more like a large shopping mall. The dazzling array of goods inside makes people feel a little overwhelmed. Heath looked at it with curiosity. It has to be said that the vegetable market in front of him is really large, and the hygiene is also very good. Heath can see all kinds of ingredients, and even saw special imported ingredients that are only available in the Sinnoh region.
There were so many things that Heath felt that the vegetable market in front of him was more like a super department store. However, what Heath was more concerned about now was what the special ingredients of Vermilion City would be. Thinking of this, Heath looked around, trying to find the special ingredients of Vermilion City here, but after looking around, Heath did not see any special ingredients he wanted to see, which made Heath a little disappointed. However, Heath then found an old man selling vegetables in the vegetable market and asked him.
After all, if you want to ask about something in a city, Heath thinks that asking people who have lived in this city for a long time is definitely the best choice.
"The special ingredients of Vermilion Leaf City? Young man, you asked me this question, and you actually asked it. I used to live in Vermilion Leaf City. As far as I can remember, Vermilion Leaf City was not an international metropolis before. At that time, it was just an ordinary small fishing village. But later with the alliance..." The old man was very talkative, and Heath had no intention of interrupting him. Instead, he listened patiently. In his opinion, listening to the old man tell stories about the past was also a very interesting thing.
Sometimes, compared to official documentaries or old photos, the memories of the elderly can better remember some of the things they have experienced that left a deep impression on them. So Heath listened patiently without interrupting the old man. After talking for quite some time, the old man finally started to mention the specialty ingredients of Vermilion City.
"...When everyone in the village goes out fishing later, sometimes HP catches a very small fish. This fish is so small that you can't catch it even if you try to catch it with a bowl. And often this fish is caught together with some Pokémon or some aquatic products. That's how you can find this fish. Although it's very small, its meat tastes amazing." The old man said with a nostalgic look on his face. Heath couldn't help but raise his eyebrows after hearing this. It seems that the specialty food of Vermilion City should be this special small fish.
After all, this kind of small fish seems to be very difficult to catch and tastes particularly good. In this case, it is more in line with the setting of a city's specialty food. However, Heath cannot be sure. But after all, this is also a rare direction, so Heath does not intend to miss the information he has now.
"Excuse me, old man, can we still buy this kind of special fish in Dead Leaf City now?" Heath asked the old man curiously.
"It's no longer available. That kind of fish has very high requirements for water quality. Nowadays, there are many large ships and cruise ships coming and going in Kuye City every day, making the water quality environment terrible." The old man took a puff of his pipe and shook his head.
Heath was a little disappointed, but not too upset. After all, this was within his expectations. Heath had long known that it was not easy to complete special city tasks easily .
