Chapter 229 Arthur
Will shrugged, "But, this is really impossible! Not to mention the level difference between me and Miss Swan, his father, Governor, would never marry his only pearl of his hand to me, a poor blacksmith. Moreover... James Norrington, the commander of the Ocean Fleet, is about to be promoted to Brigadier General of the Royals. People in Port Royal are spreading that Norrington will propose to Miss Swan at the award ceremony!"
Will said with pain on his face: "They... are the ones made by heaven. What am I?..."
Xu Feng's heart moved and said lightly: "Will, there is nothing worthy of being in love. If you don't fight for it, you will never have the chance to get it. Since you like it, you have to look like you like and try your best to fight."
"But Miss Swan and I are from two worlds, we... cannot." Will shook his head vigorously.
Xu Feng smiled and said, "I said yes, it must be OK. Unless you don't really like Elizabeth Swan."
"Of course I-" Will almost blurted out, but fortunately he stopped in time.
Xu Feng smiled and said, "Try it, you won't suffer any loss."
Will said with a wry smile: "Sir, why do I think you are like a liar in the world?"
Xu Feng smiled in surprise and said, "Do I look like me?"
Will nodded heavily, "You said that to stay here, right? Actually, there is no need to do this. If you really want to stay here, then stay. Anyway, Old Brown drinks and sleeps every day, never wakes up, and Duncan can't speak. If you stay here, it's my company."
"Duncan?" Xu Feng looked around, "Why is there a Duncan?"
The donkey beside the bellows screamed.
Will smiled and said, "That's Duncan."
Xu Feng smiled silently, "So that's it. It seems that you are really idle here and even gave the donkey a name."
Will smiled and said, "By the way, I haven't asked you about your name yet."
"…Arthur." Xu Feng pondered for a moment and called out a pseudonym.
It’s not that he doesn’t believe Will, but if his name is spread, it will definitely attract the Snow Emperor team.
It is a matter of time to face Guqi, but during the period of weakness, it is better not to expose it.
The name Arthur is good and has a kingly temperament.
"Hello, Mr. Arthur." Will bowed politely.
Xu Feng smiled and returned the greeting, "Will, you and I are about the same age. From now on, I will call you Will, just call me Arthur, don't call me Mr."
Will smiled and said, "Okay! Arthur!"
Xu Feng smiled again and said, "By the way, have you had dinner?"
Will smiled and said, "I'm going to eat."
"..." Xu Feng looked at Will.
Will was stunned and said with a wry smile: "Why, let's go together?"
Xu Feng grinned and said, "Will, you are a good person."
Will shook his head helplessly and said with a smile: "Arthur, wait a moment, I'll prepare supper now."
"Okay!" Xu Feng couldn't wait.
Duncan, the donkey next to him, also screaming, as impatient as Xu Feng.
Xu Feng and Duncan looked at each other, and turned their heads away from each other.
After a while, Will brought two plates from the simple kitchen, each with a pile of pasta and black pepper sprinkled on the pasta.
Will handed Xu Feng a pair of knife and fork, "Arthur, don't be polite, eat it! If it's not enough, I'll cook it."
Xu Feng picked up a piece of noodles with a fork and asked with a dark face: "...You usually eat this?"
Will nodded while stuffing noodles into his mouth, "Yes! Otherwise?"
Xu Feng sighed helplessly, stuffed the pasta into his mouth, and started chewing it with a frown.
Taste...hehe.
If he hadn't been hungry, he wouldn't have eaten such things if Xu Feng was killed.
This kind of thing is only suitable for Duncan to eat!
Xu Feng took a few bites and couldn't swallow it anymore. He directly brought the plate to Duncan.
Duncan screamed happily twice, and ate the pasta on the plate clean.
Will asked in surprise: "Arthur, what are you doing?"
Xu Feng touched Duncan's donkey ears and said lightly: "Do you have anything else to eat at home?"
Will thought for a while, "There is still a piece of rough bread that has been put on for three days."
Duncan shook his head and hinted that Xu Feng should not eat it.
Even the donkey dislikes it!
Xu Feng sighed, "No meat?"
Will grinned and said, "I can't do it even if I have it."
"I'll do it for you!" Xu Feng said confidently.
Will asked in surprise: "Arthur, you can cook? Haha, that's great, then I have to try your skills."
Xu Feng rolled up his sleeves and said in a deep voice: "While it's not too late, go buy some ingredients."
“What do you need to buy?”
"Fish, meat, in short, buy whatever you eat!" Xu Feng said.
With his 20 years of experience as a foodie, it is still okay to make decent meals!
What's more, the food culture of the Tang people is absolutely first-class in the whole world, and almost any Tang people have their own racial buff.
Will took his purse and hurriedly left the blacksmith shop.
Xu Feng endured his hunger and waited for almost twenty minutes, and Will finally came back.
He brought a big bag of mangoes, big bananas, sugar cane, corn, and tomatoes...
"No meat?" Xu Feng asked.
Will shrugged, "The butcher shop has closed, and it is an island, and it is almost impossible to raise sheep, pigs and cows, so even if the door is opened, it is extremely expensive and only the upper class can afford it. However, I bought a fish."
As he said that, Will took out a treasure fish more than a foot long from his pocket.
Xu Feng's frown suddenly loosened, "Not bad, with this fish, we'll eat enough today!"
Will smiled excitedly and said, "It's all up to you, Arthur."
"By the way, is there any jealousy?"
"What is vinegar?"
"Where is the soy sauce?"
"Is kerosene OK?" Will asked seriously.
"...Oh." Xu Feng shook his head, "You foreigners don't even have a condiment, how can the cooking be delicious? Forget it, braised Duobao fish can't be eaten, so it should be steamed. Will, you should have a pot at home, right?"
Will quickly said, "Yes, yes!"
Xu Feng quickly opened the Duobao fish and cleaned it. Then he applied salt on the fish, found Lao Brown's rum, poured half a bottle into the fish plate, and marinated it.
If you don’t have cooking wine to remove the fishy smell, you can only use rum.
Will smiled and said, "If Old Brown saw this, he would be heartbroken."
