Chương 394: Eating this will make you very happy!

Roland walked up to the king oyster mushroom cultivation box, stood still, and happily reached out to pick mushrooms.

"The atomized, stabilized magic potion and the artificially superior environment have indeed produced extraordinary mushrooms."

Roland smiled and weighed the freshly picked king oyster mushrooms in her hand; each one weighed more than half a pound.

Compared to the magic king oyster mushrooms on the market, it is not only larger in size, but its stem surface also has a layer of moist natural luster, making it look exceptionally tender and clearly a top-quality product.

The king oyster mushroom has a rather strange shape, with a touch of pink, making it look like the Enchanted Mushroom from the game "Plants vs. Zombies".

The moment the roland was picked, the broken surface of the pink king oyster mushroom released a delicate fragrance, without a trace of earthiness, which made people feel relaxed.

Such quality is rare in the dark underground; theoretically, it can only be grown in high-end custom farms.

Those high-end farms are all equipped with large-scale purification facilities, which burn through real money every day they are running, making them quite expensive.

In contrast, Roland's purification method only consumed a few bottles of cheap stabilizing potions, squeezed out a few bottles of milk, and incidentally relieved the weight in her chest.

Moreover, as time went on, the environment of the Secret Farm became more and more stable, the amount of potions consumed decreased, and it even transformed into a harvest field similar to that of the Tree Lady.

Roland was very satisfied with this.

However, she had a small question.

"A stabilizing potion... is it really that effective?"

After much thought, Roland lowered her head and focused on the two large mounds on her chest.

She hadn't forgotten that since arriving in the dark underground, her milk skill had received a mysterious boost.

Perhaps this is why the stabilizing potion's effects are abnormal.

But why does the milk skill get enhanced?

The system interface hasn't changed much.

As Roland pondered, she carried a basket full of pink king oyster mushrooms downstairs and began carefully rinsing the ingredients with clean water at the kitchen sink.

Although the "Stabilizing Potion" mist only affects the environment and does not directly contaminate the food, it is still an alchemical product. To avoid potion residue and food safety issues, Roland cleans the product very carefully.

The raw materials used in brewing previously also went through similar steps.

Although Roland likes to make money, she usually doesn't do so against her conscience. Even the evil technology formula of the sheep is only used after confirming that it has no side effects.

Well, in most cases—I won't go against my conscience.

……

Busy times always fly by. Before we knew it, Tess upstairs finished her bath and came downstairs in a light nightgown.

Tess tied the magic writing tablet's anti-drop bracelet around her waist and followed the clattering sounds of kitchen utensils to the kitchen, where she saw Roland standing in front of the stove cooking a late-night snack.

The goblin girl's arrival brought with it the fresh scent of soap. Roland sniffed, turned around, and gave a gentle smile.

"Is Tess done with her bath?"

"Let's find a clean seat and wait. Your favorite king oyster mushroom baked rice will be served soon... no, it should be called pink king oyster mushroom baked rice."

Pink king oyster mushroom?

Tess tilted her head, suppressing her curiosity as she was used to obeying Roland's orders. Like a good girl, she found a seat by the window and sat down, taking the opportunity to check on the cleaning work in the hall.

Soon after, Roland brought two plates of baked rice with a rich aroma to her seat.

"Come, come, try the pink king oyster mushrooms that this succubus grew herself."

When Tess heard the baked rice placed in front of her, her big eyes widened instantly, looking like saucers.

She thought Roland had bought new king oyster mushrooms at the market, but it turned out she had grown them herself?

Tess recalled the "Mushroom Cultivation Manual" she had presented to the boss a while ago. Her eyes scanned back and forth on the sliced king oyster mushrooms on the plate to confirm, and she raised the magic writing tablet in shock.

"Miss Laura, did you grow these king oyster mushrooms yourself?"

"Of course! Didn't I just say that this is all thanks to the mushroom cultivation manual you gave me, Tess?"

Tess stared blankly at her plate like a silly girl, letting Roland's hands freely ruffle her hair.

What a joke.

How could you possibly grow king oyster mushrooms like this just by following a manual?

The sliced mushrooms on the plate are tender white with a slight pinkish hue and are full of juice; they are clearly high-quality king oyster mushrooms.

Based on her eight years of experience working on mushroom farms, she judged that such high-quality king oyster mushrooms must be cultivated using purification facilities.

The Revolving Golden Sparrow Tavern is so small that there's no way it could fit a purification system. Even if it could fit, the proprietress probably couldn't afford an expensive one.

So... how exactly did they do it?

Tess's little head was filled with big questions.

However, she quickly came to terms with it.

After all, the proprietress had already brewed some cloudy sweet wine, so it's only natural that she could grow magical king oyster mushrooms under such rudimentary conditions... right?

Of course, this did not prevent Tess from feeling a sense of admiration, especially when it came to growing mushrooms.

Lake Tess's large green eyes twinkled like little stars as she looked up at Roland, her gaze filled with adoration.

This fangirl-like behavior made Roland feel embarrassed, so she poked Tess's thigh with her tail to remind her.

"Tess, it'll get cold if you don't eat it soon."

"Ahhh..."

Tess snapped out of her daze, instinctively uttering the "ba" sound of a little mute, her face flushing red. She shyly lowered her head, picked up her spoon, and began to eat.

She had barely taken a couple of bites when she pulled out her writing board again.

"Miss Laura, why is this king oyster mushroom pink?"

"Um..." Roland smacked her lips.

"It must be a new variety. I didn't check carefully when I bought the spores. Is it tasty?"

"Delicious, very delicious."

Tess's face lit up with a look of ecstasy. She put down her quill, grabbed a metal spoon, and stuffed another large spoonful of baked rice into her mouth. Her cheeks bulged out like a little squirrel's, rising and falling with each chew.

"Miss Laura, this is even better than the magic king oyster mushroom we had last time."

"Tess seems very happy eating this!"

Happy?

It must be delicious.

"Honestly, they even misspelled the adjectives."

Roland looked at Tess with amusement, took Tess's magical writing tablet, changed the word "happy" to "delicious", and even drew a funny smiley face on it.

The goblin girl didn't notice Roland's actions; she was already engrossed in the food, looking completely blissful.

Looking at Tess, Roland couldn't help but think of mukbang videos on Earth, and her appetite was instantly whetted. She picked up a spoon and took a bite.

Perhaps it was because when he was the CEO of the imperial capital, he ate delicacies every day and developed a resistance to good food.

Roland thought the pink king oyster mushrooms were decent, but not significantly better than similar products on the market; at most, they just had a better texture.

They could only fool Tess, a poor girl who had never eaten anything good.

She ate about half of it and felt full, so she pushed the remaining half plate in front of Tess.

"Tess, if you like it so much, could you finish the rest for me?"

"Thank you, Miss Laura~"

"Then you eat first, I'm going upstairs to take a bath."

Roland swayed her big buttocks and walked gracefully up the stairs.

Behind Roland, in the tavern's main hall, Tess moved Roland's plate and continued to devour the remaining pink king oyster mushroom baked rice.

A look of happiness flashed across the goblin girl's face.

Her happiness stemmed partly from Roland's care and gentle treatment.

On the other hand, it actually comes from the pink king oyster mushrooms on the plate.

This "pink king oyster mushroom" really does bring you a good mood after you eat it.

For her, it felt like being held in the arms of the landlady, her warm body and fragrance enveloping every inch of her body, making her feel warm and comfortable.

I'm so happy and joyful!
