Rebirth of the Viking King

The night sky was clear and cloudless.

Two large ships and a three-masted ship under Loki's command have sailed out of the Arctic Circle and arrived in the Norwegian Sea, not far from home. All the members led by the leader returned to the ship safely, and they also went to another Tang Dynasty ship "Litchi" for free. The Viking pirates who loved their ships were very excited at this time.

There are no sailing missions tonight. Loki ordered the ship to be docked on a windless sea so that all the crew could rest for a day and have a full meal before setting off home early the next morning. The Viking crew members drank the tea stored in the ships and carefully looked through the telescopes, compasses and silver coins that Old Ward picked up from each ship.

This is a rule passed down from ancient times by Viking pirates. Those who venture out must pay a share of the spoils to the guards who remain on board the ship. Although Xiao Lu's fleet is not like the huge amount of gold and silver hidden in Lindisfa Monastery. However, the eight large ships were thoroughly swept by Old Gore, and 60 gold pounds and about 300 silver coins were also swept out.

This property was distributed to the more than 50 Vikings who stayed on the ship, and each of them also received a considerable sum of money. Although it is not enough to wear gold and silver, it is more than enough money to go home and upgrade your Cahon, build a suit of armor and buy some livestock for your family.

The person who gained the most was Gore. With his face flushed, he first took out the huge kobold staff, and then took off the poisonous scorpion bracer on his wrist.

Finally, he took out a heavy colorful mask from his arms! He got the three trophies from the golden mountain in the "Egyptian Plate" in the black pyramid.

"Ho ho! Look, show me!" Old Gore grabbed a pot of strong liquor and put it into his mouth for a few sips. The fine wine brewed by the Tang Dynasty poured into his mouth, which was no different from the coarse ale. With his face glowing red, he jumped onto the table with a thump, his eyes widened and he began to brag to everyone around him.

"This time, I have learned a lot! Oops, you didn't see the pyramid inside the monster. There are more than a dozen golden mountains! How has Old Gore seen such a battle in his entire life? ! That many gold coins can bury Hanshui Village!"

"My father once taught me that when it comes to silver, pick out the biggest and heaviest ones! Hehe, I just pulled down a few things from that golden mountain. You ask me why I only took such a small amount, haha! You Pick it up and try it! Do you really think that gold is like scrap metal?"

The two Viking warriors beside him stretched out a hand to grab the kobold staff and found that the thing was surprisingly heavy. Gore Sr. was smug, and they didn't blame them. Most Vikings never saw a few pieces of gold in their entire lives.

I have never heard of a scepter made of pure gold.

Everyone looked at him with envy like old Gore. Obtaining gold is certainly one aspect, but what the pirates are more envious of is his adventures these days. Others occupied the land, but our leader Loki actually "created" an island! In this adventurous era where there is no TV, no Internet, and no radio, such a thrilling adventure story cannot even be made up by a troubadour.

"Cheers to our great leader Loki!"

"cheers!"

Gudong, gudong, the alcohol content of the mellow wine brewed by the Tang people is much purer than the ale that the Vikings often drank. After a while, everyone looked a little drunk. A few capable men carried wooden boxes full of silver coins, and after giving each brother 6 silver coins and 1 gold pound, there were more than ten gold pounds and three silver swords left. The oldest skill of Kyo people: wrestling to determine the winner.

"In 10 minutes! Those who are still standing on the floor can get money! Those who unfortunately lie down, haha, let's talk about it next time!"

"Let the battle begin!" Old Gore drank the liquor in the bottle in one gulp, jumped down from the round table with a thud, and raised his fist to hit the cheek of his teammate next to him. Bang bang bang, a fist-to-flesh melee mixed with laughter began.

At the bottom of the cabin, Loki heard the noise above his head and shook his head helplessly. It was a Viking tradition to fight with fists at every turn. They do not feel that they are beating up their friends, but rather see this activity as a wonderful performance dedicated to the gods in the Hall of Valor.

The harder the beating, the happier the gods in heaven will be, and the happier both parties will be.

"Damn, it's starting again. Let's ignore him and continue cooking our food."

Loki was currently in the kitchen teaching Aunt Favna new cooking skills. He grabbed a handful of sparkling powder and held it up to Aunt Valrhona's eyes.

"Sister, this is called sucrose!"

There was no such condiment as "white sugar" in the Middle Ages. The only way for the ancients to make sugar was to squeeze out the juice from sugar cane and beet, boil it in a large pot until it became thick or crystallized. During the cooking process, the sugar will inevitably turn color and burnt after being heated.

Therefore, most of the brown sugar made by the ancient method is dark in color and has a faint burnt flavor. But even this kind of candy was a rare luxury product in the Middle Ages. (About 100 kilograms of sugar cane can produce 3 kilograms of ancient brown sugar.) Probably only the Tang people in the world were able to put this product on the dining tables of ordinary people.

Therefore, only the wealthy Tang people could invent the "extremely luxurious" cooking method of "braised in brown sauce".

"Mix the oil and sugar and heat it. After the brown sugar melts, we can put the fish in." After saying this, Rocky threw several big fish into the country. With a loud sizzling sound, the hot oil pool mixture began to beat violently, and Aunt Valrhona pushed back uncontrollably. When Loki saw this scene, he remembered the time when he cooked for the first time in his previous life.

"It's okay, old sister. Chef Mao is afraid of overheating. Just cook it a few more times and it will be fine."

There was no onion or ginger in the boat, so he poured in some white wine, and a hot flame began to rise in the pot. After covering the pot to extinguish the flames, Loki poured the soy sauce that had been frozen for 50 years into the boat. The smell of braised fish began to permeate the room. It was a scent the Vikings had never smelled.

This fragrance is called "civilization".

"All the hard work has been done. Now it's just like how we usually cook fish, just add water and stew. When the stew is almost dry, we can take it out of the pot."

"Next step, you are going to make 'rice'. I taught you it yesterday. You should be able to remember it today."

"I remember it, but I"

"But what the hell, if you're afraid of getting confused, why don't you turn on the heat a little lower? We won't even know how to do this at the beginning, but we'll do it after doing it a few times!"

After finishing working in the kitchen, Loki washed his hands with water in the basin and walked out of the room to the warehouse not far from the kitchen. This was originally a place in the three-masted ship used to store bacon firewood. It has now been cleared out by Loki and used as a cozy cabin.

This was the most comfortable cabin in the barque.

Youmu has been lying in it for the past few days.
