Chapter 604 – [My Summer Vacation]

For a while, all I could see was the sea. Naturally, the place we are going to is the Northern Islands, the only land other than the continent. Conversely, it means that it is safe to say that there is no other land.

If there was such a land, they would have occupied it first and lived there. Usually, they all have land owners, so they are looking for land without owners.

She wasn’t too bored with Ruby’s chatter, but she didn’t think she would be that bored without her. Because here, too, there is a society of its own.

“Oh, today is a holiday”

“Are pirates closed on holidays?”

“It’s not closed, but I’m going to the market”

“……You’re holding a market? Is there even a separate pirate island?”

“If there was such a thing, I would have said that to Rurikies.”

Edward’s pirate fleet was made up not only of pirates, but also of ordinary people.

The fleet itself is a society. They interact and share with each other and engage in social activities. Hmm…… I think I saw the setting of a society where the ship is one.

No, except for the academy box. Panzer Po! Do you have time to shout slogans?

In any case, production activities and other market economies are active here. It is difficult to anchor on land, but everything is available.

Woo woo woo!

“Wow!!!! The boats are stretched out at regular intervals!!! It’s amazing!!!!”

“This is pretty cool.”

On the holiday Edward mentioned, dozens began to line up among dozens of ships.

3 rows of 5 each. A total of 15 ships are lined up. It’s to the point where you want it to be dense at regular intervals. If it was an ordinary ship, it wouldn’t be strange if a catastrophe had already occurred.

At that distance, they would collide and smash into each other according to the movement of the waves, resulting in a disastrous situation. However, it is relatively calm, but dozens of boats are connected in the middle of the open sea, and it has become one village.

Gaps are blocked with boards to make a floor, and people who come out to the deck open stalls with items to sell or to sell.

It seems that there is a place that sells food because it often smells delicious.

“Money?”

“Of course, use it normally. Did you think we could trade in dried fish?”

“I thought they would trade for rum, if not fish.”

“Oh, don’t do that”

“Are you doing it?”

Hagi-sa Sailors drink rum for granted. Living on a boat is boring and you need something to hold on to, and then you end up getting drunk.

However, beer is difficult to store for a long time, and most alcoholic beverages are expensive, making it difficult to drink. Meanwhile, rum is made from sugarcane by-products, so it’s cheap and easy to store.

That’s why rum is friendly to sailors. It’s not like there’s a rum drinking scene in a pirate movie or a movie with a ship in the background.

“If I had known this would happen, I would have brought more money.”

“What, are you broke?”

“Who would have thought you’d need money on a boat?”

To be honest, I can do this kind of resolution because Edward is there. Since I can’t do it normally, I don’t feel the need for money, and I only have a small amount of emergency money I brought just in case.

Still, the word “Kids shopping” Is not for nothing, so it seems like it would be fun to look around.

“Come to think of it, you said the other day that you would make me rice cakes when I get bigger!!!!!”

“No, the promise I made without thinking here before?!?!”

“I want to eat rice cake now! Give me rice cake!!!!”

“No, ask me to make rice cakes on the boat, then what should I do?”

“Ahhhhh! You promised! Do you want to eat now! Huh? Huh?”

Edward giggled and watched me and Ruby chatter. And he pushes Ruby’s and makes fun of me.

“Yes, if the boy made a promise, he should keep it. No matter what.”

“Are you saying it’s Namil?”

“Isn’t that right? In one kingdom, the meaning of rice cake has a different meaning…”

“This wrinkles in front of a slug”

Did you know that I don’t know if rice cake has a meaning?

Originally, people live, but all thoughts are the same. If there is rice cake, in the end, no matter whether you pound it in a mortar or whatever you do, you have no choice but to use a tool to hit the rice cake.

As there are one or two stories of the water mill in every village, the results are similar. Well, honestly, humans usually don’t think about anything other than that.

“Anyway, to make rice cakes here, I need to get rice first…”

“It’s only about rice. We grow some.”

“……Cultivating? On a boat?”

“Among the ships that built the market over there, there is a ship that does farming separately. There is a guy who specializes in growing crops in his daydreams. However, due to the nature of ships, it is not possible to farm a large area……. It’s to the point where you won’t starve in case of emergency. “

“Looks like you have everything.”

“Still, it’s not enough. Compared to living on land, it’s a long way.”

It is a means to live on its own, but there are limitations due to the nature of being on the sea.

That’s why they want the land. A land where you can live in peace and stability.

“Well, if you have rice, you can make rice cakes.”

“So it’s better to keep your mouth shut with that rice cake instead of that rice cake? What, are you a kid with no experience with women?”

“That’s the funniest joke I’ve ever heard. A girl’s experience? A girl’s experience? Hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey?”

Damn, it’s been a while since I’ve heard that I have no experience with women.

Even if you hit rice cake with one person, that pure experience alone will easily exceed hundreds of thousands of hours. Experience with a woman? No, I have experience as a woman too!

“Anyway, I’ll go shopping, so give me some money.”

“What?!”

“Fuck, if I cook, will you only eat Ruby’s? You’ll eat too. Then shut up and give me the money”

“You’re the first one to take money from pirates…”

“What’s up?”

I extorted the money I lacked from Edward. As expected, as the pirate king, there was money that he had, even if it wasn’t enough money to give the whole world.

I took it and headed to the market. Even though I’ve seen many markets, I’m honestly excited to see a market with boats on the sea for the first time.

“There are fish that are delicious even if eaten raw! Oh, welcome! I’m new to you, right?”

“Eating raw, do you eat raw fish here?”

“It’s because it’s hard to find firewood on a boat. After trying so hard, I ended up eating it raw.”

“Just just?”

“No, after aging a little, I sliced ​​it…”

“Oh, I never thought I’d be eating suksukhoe here. I didn’t even think of it.”

There are places where you can eat separately for a small fee, so I ordered a couple of pieces and ate them.

Of course, I didn’t just eat it. There was a separate dipping sauce……. It wasn’t just a sauce, it was a fishery. Why is that sauce soaked in fish?

“……What is this?”

“Oh, don’t you know? It’s a common food in one kingdom, and it’s the sauce they usually dip when they eat fish.”

Actually, it’s natural. No matter how much you live, you can’t live without intestines.

Why? Yes, humans need food that can be stored and eaten for a long time to survive, and among them, high-salinity, long-term storage is inevitable. Is good to have

On the other hand, it feels like dipping in soy sauce, so it’s very good. A bit unique flavor, but good nonetheless.

“Hey, you eat well for a rookie. Let’s eat this together”

“This?”

“Sea pepper, if you eat this with fish sauce, it’s really awesome”

It was called sea pepper, but the taste was similar to wasabi. Great, soy sauce and wasabi? I like chojang, but it’s not bad either!!!!

In addition, if it is a maturation meeting, even more!!!!

“Ah, I want to eat rice cake instead of this!!!!”

“I can’t use it if you say that while eating well”

“It’s a bit tough, but if you eat it with sauce, it’s okay. It’s not delicious.”

“It’s just kids’ taste”

It’s not like children’s taste just because they don’t know the taste of sashimi, but if sashimi isn’t delicious, it’s proof that the range of tastes isn’t wide yet.

Ruby’s appearance was as childish as her appearance. It might be natural since the appearance of the knight itself does not differ greatly from mine.

“Then go buy some rice”

“It’s rice cake!”

“Don’t keep talking about tteok-tteok. You’ve probably never eaten rice cake before.”

“I’ve eaten in the Great Forest, but I’ve only eaten once or twice!!!!”

“Why not?”

“It’s difficult for fairies to make rice cakes, so they only get it when elves do it, but they don’t make rice cakes much either.”

The word rice cake has several meanings. No, besides rice cake in that sense, isn’t there a lot of meaning of rice cake in a good sense?

If you listen to someone carefully, you will get rice cakes even while sleeping. What is this rice cake? There are quite a lot of proverbs like that saying. Making rice cakes is such a difficult and precious task.

If you think about it, if you have rice, would you rather just cook it and eat it? Don’t bother

On the other hand, rice cakes were also wasteful like alcohol. If you can’t replace it with a machine, you have to add labor, but it’s annoying and it’s hard to do it often. So it’s usually hard to eat.

“Oh, there is rice.”

“Tteok!!!! Tteok!!!!!”

“If you keep talking about tteok-tteok, I’m going to say something, so shut up.”

“Come to think of it, even the pirate king said something strange about rice cakes. What does rice cake mean?”

“……How do fairies conceive children?”

“Huh? Doesn’t it just happen when a married man and woman find a flower bud somewhere and pollinate it?”

“You’re right and you’re saying the wrong thing.”

In fact, fertilization during pregnancy and flower pollination are similar, but the same story. Unless fairies are unusual, men and women will definitely make a baby together.

However, if you look at it like that, it means that sex education is not known properly yet. It’s a bit better

“Come when you have hair between your legs like Luminus.”

“Is there hair between your legs? OMG!!!!!”

I bought rice and cooked it first. It’s not even glutinous rice, but it’s still somewhat sticky unless the variety itself is like that.

If you take out the cooked rice and beat the rice cake with an improvised mortar and pestle…… It takes a lot of work, but the rice cake is complete.

“Wow!!!!!”

“Something like Sans! I think I’ll shout. Even if I eat it as it is, it’s chewy and delicious, but I need to improve it a little more.”

“How?”

“I’ll make Injeolmi”

If you just put bean powder here, it’s very simple!!!!!

It may not be as sticky as glutinous rice cakes made with glutinous rice, but rice cakes are still rice cakes. The chewy texture and taste, and the unique savory taste of soybean flour add up to a truly delicious rice cake.

As promised, I made rice cake for Ruby. It was almost no different from presenting a gift to a customer, but he kept his promise anyway.

Rubis used his self-fantasy to grow to human size and then inhale rice cakes. Seeing people eating Injeolmi with soybean powder on their cheeks makes me happy.

“Well well well, ah, delicious !!!!”

“It’s against etiquette to eat loudly.”

“There are only two of them, so what!!!! Oh, it’s so good to eat rice cake after a long time.

“It looks like glutinous rice cake is the main thing there. What do you put in it?”

“Um… I don’t remember well, but it was sweet like honey.”

“It looks like honey cake”

If you think about it, a kingdom that is the home of rice cakes in this world is a place where sugar is made and sold from sugarcane. Then, it is also a perfect place to add sugar as the content of the rice cake.

Anything cheap is good, right? It’s similar to making soybean paste stew with leftover meat by-products at a meat restaurant.

Anyway, it seems that one kingdom makes and sells honey rice cakes. Hmmm……. Come to think of it, I suddenly want to eat rice cake. It’s not just rice cakes, it’s like Baekseolgi.

Since you have to grind glutinous rice powder separately to make it, let’s promise later.

“Oh, and I want to eat other rice cakes too!!!!!”

“If the favor continues, they know it’s Dooly…….!!!!”

“No, other rice cakes other than this”

“……?”

I expressed some doubts about Ruby’s words. No, are you saying that you want to eat something like honeyduck or white rice cake instead of Injeolmi right now?

No country can make it without the ingredients. I have to calm down and make it after I go to the academy…

“I want to eat that other rice cake you said!!!!

“No!!!! It must be delicious!!!! It must be very delicious for a woman!!!!!”

If an unmarried kid wants to eat something like that, he can’t use it!!!!!
