After Maxing out all Classes

Chapter 764: There are eight new dishes to eat now

After the reunification of the Kingdom of Gran, the wounds of war began to slowly heal, and a prosperous scene emerged.

After four years of civil war, all the people were tired of it.
Who would want to live in a state of war if there could be peace?

Both soldiers and civilians finally obtained a valuable period of rest, and The Queen also finally reduced military spending, decreased the development of weapon-type magic items, and increased investment in administration and economy.

The southern port city began full-scale construction.
Many things that were previously planned but lacked funds for can now be started openly, and the railway, centered around Bright Road, began to spread like a spider web…

This was the true beginning of the rise of the Kingdom of Gran.
From this year on, the Kingdom of Gran embarked on a road of prosperity.
Therefore, historians of later generations called the year 1348 the “year of the dawn”.
  Robb sat on his beloved stone stool.
It had been a long time since he was able to leisurely fish here without any distractions.
A few days ago, he finally got his identity as Robb Smith back, so he didn't have to operate on two fronts anymore.
He could leisurely fish here with his fishing rod and be very happy with his life.

As he had just caught a mutated fish, he saw a large group of people coming to the chapel door.
The leader was Baron Nuolun, followed by Kante, and then a large group of Nuolun's attendants and servants, many of whom were carrying boxes and bags, carefully holding what looked like valuable items.

Robb was surprised, “Hey, Baron Nuolun, what are you doing?”

Baron Nuolun rushed up to Robb with a smile on his face, “Godfather, I've come to thank you.”

“What for?” Robb was puzzled.
  “Of course, for Kante,” Baron Nuolun said with a grin.
“Kante just came back home, and I just heard from him that on this trip, he received some guidance from Godfather and learned wind magic.”

“Oh, that's what it is,” Robb said.

Behind the smile on Baron Nuolun's face was a deep feeling of gratitude, “Ah, I spent countless efforts teaching this child wind magic since he was young, but he just couldn't learn it, no matter how hard he tried…”

Kante protested from behind, “But I can do the whirlwind spell!”

“You call that a whirlwind spell?” Baron Nuolun was angry.
“Believe me, I'll beat you to death.”
  Kante had no choice but to keep quiet.

Baron Nuolun immediately turned back and smiled at Robb, “Thanks to Godfather, even my stupid nephew now knows how to use wind magic.
This really makes me…makes me…”

He laughed, but then suddenly burst into tears, “It just makes me too happy.”

Robb: “…”

It's a pity that all parents in the world have the same heart!

Baron Nuolun had his attendants bring in a bunch of gifts.
Of course, he knew that Robb didn't lack money to spend.
Or rather, all the wealth in Westwind City was brought by Robb, so sending him gold, silver, and jewelry was meaningless.
Therefore, the gifts sent by Baron Nuolun were some heartfelt things, such as various pastries and snacks that were just researched, and all kinds of strange and rare ingredients that were bought from the sea merchants.

Robb was quite happy with these things and didn't refuse them.
He smiled and watched as the gifts filled up a table full.
Suddenly, Robb's eyes lit up when he saw a red and round plant that looked very cute.

“Huh?” Robb quickly grabbed the thing, “Tomato?”

Baron Nuolun said, “Godfather is really amazing.
I haven't even introduced what it is yet, and you recognized it at a glance.
This is a plant called Tomato.
It was brought back from the New World of Maya by the sea merchants.
It's said to be very delicious, but I only have this one, and I don't want to eat it, so I brought it to you.”

Robb was overjoyed, “This is good, very good.
Hahaha, Baron Nuolun, I'm very satisfied with the gifts you brought.
So satisfied, hahaha.”

Seeing Robb happy, Baron Nuolun was also happy.
However, after only two seconds of being happy, he put on a slightly embarrassed face, “But…Godfather, I only got one of these fruits, and it will be very difficult to buy more in the future.”

Robb wondered, “Since the sea merchants brought back one from the New World, they should be able to bring back more as long as they are willing to pay the merchants.
Why is it difficult?”

Baron Nuolun whispered, “The trade route between us and Lost City has been cut off.”

Hearing this, Robb immediately understood.

Lost City is the largest port in the Kingdom of Gran and almost the only port at present.
The Queen’s port city is still under construction and has not been completed yet.
No merchants have gone there yet, so all sea merchants still concentrate on trading in Lost City.

And Lost City is held in the hands of the Church of Darkness.
Since the Church of Darkness rebelled on Bright Road and was repelled by Robb not long ago, the Templar Knights have retreated to Lost City and firmly guarded the city, forming a confrontational situation with the Queen.

Under such circumstances, it would be strange if the commercial routes are not constantly disrupted.

Robb shrugged helplessly, “Well, it seems we can't buy tomatoes for now.
Do you have any seeds?”

Lord Nuolun looked embarrassed, “No, I couldn't get any.
This is the only fruit.”

“One fruit won't do.
It's not even enough to make tomato scrambled eggs.” Robb propped his chin with his hand and thought, “Forget it.
Let's not eat it for now.
We'll have to use it as a seed.
Sigh, I'm so unlucky.
I have to wait until tomorrow to eat tomatoes again.”

Lord Nuolun also became interested.
Godfather knows so many things, it's really incredible.
He even knows about this strange fruit discovered in the New World? I don't even know where the seeds are.
Do I just plant the whole red ball in the ground?

Robb cut open the tomato, squeezed out some yellow particles, and carefully separated them one by one.
Lord Nuolun only understood here that these were the tomato seeds, and there were many seeds inside one tomato.

Robb then acted as an old farmer and planted the seeds one by one in his own field, watered them, and then sat on the field happily looking at the currently empty land, “Tomorrow, we can have eight new dishes.”

Lord Nuolun was surprised, “Can one plant produce eight different dishes?”

Robb nodded and smiled, “Tomato scrambled eggs, stir-fried tomatoes, tomato and egg stir-fry, egg and tomato stir-fry, egg soup, tomato soup, egg and tomato soup, tomato and egg soup.
A total of eight dishes, just right.”

Lord Nuolun: “…”
