Chapter 1 Preparation for departure

"Jiayi, this time you have to go to Wickham City first, then set out from Wickham City, take a boat upstream, arrive at the imperial capital Memphirbo, and then take a flight from the imperial capital to the school." Im said to Jiayi.

It has been more than a year since Jiayi became a formal mage. He is 15 years old this year. Jiayi not only recovered from his injuries, but also learned several magics. At the same time, he learned a lot of mage skills and adventure experience from Im. Now, he is about to go to school to study.

"Teacher, am I going alone? Are Flower and the others?" Seeing that Im said these words to him alone, Kaichi couldn't help but ask.

"You have become a formal wizard and can go directly to school. Flower is too old and is almost over the age of admission. The college only recruits mage apprentices under the age of 14 or formal wizards under the age of 20." Im said.

"What about Dai'er, you can actually study together in the college."

"Dai'er... the lord has other considerations, but I don't know what will happen in the future."

Im forced to change the topic: "Remember to collect the recommendation letters I give you, and also letters to teachers Orlando. This will save you from the entrance exam and be assigned directly to the class, but you don't have to worry, the teacher can arrange it."

This time when I went to school, only Jiayi went on the road, and Im would not accompany him.

After this year of study, Jiayi not only consolidated his foundation and learned formal magic courses, but also learned a lot of formal magic. Although he is still a little younger, his strength is actually not weak.

Moreover, Im has prepared a lot of magic props for him, all of which are disposable props. Although they are not particularly valuable than ordinary magic items, they are quite powerful because of disposable.

If Jiayi had made so many preparations and had problems going from home to the academy, then with his luck, even if Im sent him to the academy, he would not know which day he would be killed by a meteorite falling from the sky.

Eim told him this arrangement since Jiayi's injury. Along the way, he not only went to the college, but also traveled. Although there is no motto in other world that reading thousands of books is worse than traveling thousands of miles, the mage also pays great attention to traveling out.

Not only to see different customs and cultures in different places, each place may have its own unique magic materials and unique magic. Although communication between mages is incredible than that of ordinary people, communication between mages is actually not as convenient as imagined.

Some mages in remote places do not even know the mage's papers, and they treat some spell casting techniques or spells as secrets that they do not pass on. Moreover, even if the paper is published, it cannot guarantee that the mages will see it in time.

They are basically out of touch with the development of magic.

After Jiayi learned about Im’s arrangement, he had no objection and started preparing early.

He first made some arrangements for his family and cooperated with the Lord's Mansion represented by Flower to establish a workshop specializing in the production of ham, bacon, tofu and tofu products. The ham took a long time to ferment, and the first batch was released. In addition to selling some to the town, most of them were bought and taken away by the chamber of commerce.

Jiayi improved the ham process and reduced the use of salt. He used magic assistance to control bacterial growth when pickling ham and accelerated the penetration of salt into the inside of the ham. However, when the salt penetrates into the inside of the ham, the ham will not be caused by bacterial growth.

However, the ham has a hair fermentation on the surface and there is no tube. These molds can not only isolate the invasion of bacteria, but also decompose pork and grow many amino acids. The ham has a more flavor.

The modified ham only needs half of the original salt. After using less salt, the flavor of the ham does not lose its color. Moreover, because the salt content is less, the ham does not need to be soaked or otherwise removed when consuming it, which is more convenient.

There are also hams in this world, but there is no ham production skills or traditions near Jiayi Town.

However, although Jiayi made ham, there was no habit of eating ham here, and ham was sold much more expensive than ordinary fresh meat. In order to sell ham, Jiayi wrote a lot of recipes for the workshop to promote it. The official statement was to enrich the vegetable basket of town residents.

What are ham stir-fried cauliflower, ham fried eggs, ham tofu, ham steamed fish, ham chicken/rib soup, ham enoki mushrooms, which greatly expand the poor dining tables of the townspeople. In order to cooperate with the sale of ham, Jia's bakery also launched ham meal bags and ham sandwiches.

He also made a honey-sauce fire recipe, which is a famous dish about ham. First remove the lean meat of the ham, and the skin should be peeled, scraped off the fine hairs and stains on the ham skin, and cooked in the pot for 2 hours; then take out the ham, put the skin down on the chopping board, use a knife to cut small squares, deep until half the fat; put the skin down in a bowl, add sugar, light soup, and steam wine in the pot for an hour; finally, place the pot on high heat, pour in marinade, add honey, boil it, thicken it with water starch, and pour it on the fire recipe, and it's fine.

As for why I used wine, of course it was because there was no rice wine. After tasting it, Jiayi felt that the taste was not bad. Anyway, he had never eaten Honey Soup. He had bought ham and saw Honey Soup when he was looking for a recipe, but he thought it was too troublesome to make it, so he didn't make it. Making a dish for 3 or 4 hours was still too exaggerated for Jiayi.

Not only ham, Jiayi also improved the method of making bacon. There is bacon in the town and nearby villages, but the production is very rough and the quality is different. Jiayi sorted out the process of making bacon, and added pepper, cloves, nutmeg, cinnamon and fresh juniper to season it when marinating, and then air-dried. When smoked, cypress or fruit wood was used to smoke it, and also brushed with syrup water on the surface.

After making this, the bacon is bright red and extremely resistant to storage. Moreover, after steaming the bacon, it is mellow and fragrant, fat but not greasy, thin but not stiff, and has a special smoky flavor. The lean meat can also be cut into thin slices and fryed, and the flavor is also very good.

After the bacon was improved, it was not only very popular among the townsmen because of its excellent quality, but also added an exported commodity in the town. Compared with ham, bacon is more accepted by people.

Jiayi couldn't understand why. After all, everyone is bacon, so why is ham not as popular as bacon? Is it because ham is saltier?

Daqing's child has been born, a green bull, very similar to Daqing. After Im's examination, he thought that the calf had inherited Daqing's talent very well. However, the cow died of dying, which made Dai'er very sad for a while. It seemed that he could not bear Daqing's powerful bloodline, but the calf born was very healthy.

After Daqing made all the cows big, he finally stopped fāqing, which made Jiayi feel relieved. Otherwise, he would not know how many cows he would buy and open a cattle ranch.
