Chapter 113: Self-Made Dish, Pork Bun

Xiao Feng carefully examined each goat and noticed the growth cycle specified for each one.

Razorback Goat: Cub

Growth Cycle: 90 days

Bloodfang Boar: Cub

Growth Cycle: 120 days

Xiao Feng observed that these growth cycles represented the period at which they could be slaughtered. However, if he chose to continue raising them, their weight and meat quality would improve over time.

Moreover, depending on the cooking method, the optimal slaughter time varied. Some preferred a younger goat for roasting within 5 months to a year, while a bit older goat was better for stewing. Also, female goats were tastier than males, their meat more delicate, but this all depended on the specific requirements.

Xiao Feng also noticed that the mutated goats and boars had shorter cycles, implying faster reproduction rates.

"Wait a moment! Why aren’t there any female goats here?"

Xiao Feng suddenly noticed an issue. If there were female goats, it would save costs in the future when they gave birth to offspring.

When he checked the store again, Xiao Feng found that the price for a female goat was twice that of other cubs, likely because of their ability to give birth. However, since the pens were already full, he decided to consider it for next time.

"Three months to maturity might be a bit long, isn’t it?"

Xiao Feng pondered silently.

Just then, the system came to the rescue again.

[Reminder: The store sells Harmless Feed, which can shorten the growth cycle.]

Xiao Feng felt elated and immediately checked it out. True enough, the store offered Harmless Feed. It was priced at 100 energy per bag, similar to the cost of a goat cub. However, one bag could reduce the growth cycle of ten goats by half.

That meant feeding one pen with a bag of feed would reduce the growth cycle to 45 days.

"Forty-five days should be manageable!"

Considering the potential expansion of the resturant and consequently the breeding grounds, Xiao Feng anticipated an increase in the number of livestock. This would cater to his needs.

Therefore, Xiao Feng purchased thirty bags of feed to feed each pig and sheep pen.

After consuming the feed, Xiao Feng saw that the goat’s growth cycle had indeed reduced to 45 days, while the wild boar’s cycle had decreased to 60 days.

Returning to the bedroom, Xiao Feng continued pondering about the ingredients.

"A wild boar can produce four pork knuckles, but the demand is a bit low, and the other parts like pork belly and other ribs can’t be used to make useful dishes!"

After all, if it’s not recognized by the system as a dish, one cannot gain abilities.

"It would be nice if we could make pork buns!"

Xiao Feng thought to himself.

He hadn’t tried this yet.

"I wonder if using the method for goat meat buns to make pork buns would have any effect?"

Suddenly, Xiao Feng sat up straight and immediately put on his shoes, heading to the kitchen.

The kitchen robot was still bustling about efficiently.

Xiao Feng took some wild boar meat and began mincing it.

In no time, a small bowl of bun filling was ready.

These were made using the method for making blade goat meat buns.

Then, Xiao Feng prepared some dough and started wrapping the filling.

In a little while, several baskets of buns were ready.

After steaming, Xiao Feng rubbed his hands together excitedly and picked one up.

Upon looking at it, Xiao Feng’s eyes widened.

​​[Bloodfang Wild Boar Bun: Boosts a small amount of vitality and strength, lasts for ten minutes.]

"It’s actually a dual-attribute bun!"

Xiao Feng was overjoyed and quickly ate one.

With a single bite, the aroma of wild boar meat filled his mouth.

It was a completely different taste from goat meat.

Soon, a surge of vitality and strength spread from his stomach throughout his body.

After ten minutes, this feeling dissipated.

​​[Hint: Congratulations on creating a dish, Bloodfang Wild Boar Bun, reward: 100,000 energy; unlocking a new dish, Spicy Rabbit Head.]

"Is this another pleasant surprise?"

This unexpected joy meant Xiao Feng would have trouble sleeping tonight.

​​[Spicy Rabbit Head: Increases movement speed by 200% for three minutes, recommended selling price: 5000 energy]

Rabbits are known for their fast running speed.

So, the spicy rabbit head dish also enhances movement speed.

Doubling the speed for three minutes could be quite unexpected during a fight.

"Rabbits?"

Xiao Feng immediately thought about rabbit ingredients.

Considering the mutated rabbits proliferating in the wilderness, Xiao Feng couldn’t help but worry whether creating this dish would lead to them becoming protected animals.

However, with rabbits breeding at a rocket-like pace, Xiao Feng felt relieved.

Moreover, he could easily capture a male and female rabbit.

In less than three months, he would guarantee a pleasant surprise.

While Xiao Feng was enjoying the food, the curtain of the kitchen was lifted, and a somewhat groggy-looking person walked in.

"Hmm? Xiao Feng? What are you doing here?"

Seeing the groggy-looking Li Qixi, Xiao Feng smiled and said, "I was a bit hungry, so I came down to find something to eat. Would you like some?"

"Sure, I’m hungry too, came down to find something to eat!"

Li Qixi was delighted and came over to Xiao Feng.

Seeing the steaming buns, being able to eat such warm buns on such a cold night was like a dream come true for her.

Li Qixi was a rescued classmate. After being rescued, Xiao Feng arranged for her to work as a receptionist at the resturant.

This was Xiao Feng’s first close observation of this young girl.

Li Qixi was nineteen years old, from the countryside, and led a very frugal life, even now at the resturant.

However, with her fringe, she spoke gently and looked like those girls from the island on television.

Noticing that Xiao Feng had been staring at her, Li Qixi’s face turned slightly red.

"Xiao Feng, why are you staring at me like that?"

Li Qixi asked somewhat shyly, leaning to the side.

"Cough, no, I was just watching you eat, you looked cute!"

Xiao Feng slowly reached out to touch Li Qixi’s face.

Li Qixi’s heart couldn’t help but skip like a little deer, and then slowly closed her eyes.

"Look at you, you’ve eaten like a big cat!"

Xiao Feng wiped off some crumbs from Li Qixi’s face.

Li Qixi opened her eyes, a hint of regret flickering in her gaze.

"By the way, where is your hometown?"

Xiao Feng asked.

"Do you know Lijia Gou?" Li Qixi asked.

"You mean Lijia Gou in Yunling County?"

"Yes, yes!"

Li Qixi nodded repeatedly but then her expression darkened.

"I wonder if my parents are still there or not!"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Feng immediately thought of the current refuge alliance’s base, which was in Yunling County.

"Don’t worry, when the opportunity arises, I’ll take you to find out!"

"Thank you, Brother Feng!"
