Chapter 210: A cup of tea, a pack of cigarettes, and a game for a day
Xiangling rushed out holding a plate of food and with rice crust on her head. When she saw Gu Sanqiu, her eyes lit up and she came up to him waving a spatula.
"Captain, the ingredients in your restaurant are so interesting. They are all things I have never seen before. The ones I have seen before are of better quality!"
Xiang Ling's eyes were full of stars. "Can you sell some to me? I want to use it to make special holiday dishes for Wanmin Hall."
"It contains spiritual energy, or elemental power. Even you and the guys who practice cultivation must eat it properly, not to mention ordinary people."
Gu Sanqiu shook his head and pointed to the plate of Jueyun stir-fried pork with peppers in Guoba's hand.
"For example, if you make a bowl of Wanmintang's special boiled fish, you can only pick out a piece and chop it up to add to the soup as a seasoning. It's unrealistic for you to promote it in Wanmintang."
When this kind of food ingredient can be circulated unimpeded in Liyue's catering industry and is used as an ordinary food ingredient in thousands of households, Gu Sanqiu feels that it will not be long before Liyue unifies Teyvat.
Even if someone wanted to come to Liyue to cause trouble, or even kidnap the next generation to threaten them, unless they were some top-notch expert, they would probably be taken down by a team of kids who could lift a thousand-pound stone...
Not to mention anything else, just for Dugu Shuo, who had nothing to do and taught himself a few sword techniques, if he could eat this kind of food all year round, it would be no problem for him to defeat a member of the advance team at his current level.
However, with his current strength and status, he can only share this kind of thing among a small circle of friends. If he wants to popularize it in Liyue Harbor, the outflow of ingredients will definitely be out of control.
He didn't want to be stared at by some strange guys every day. It was not without reason that the Gu family gave up the position of the leader of Xuanmen and stayed in Liyue Port to become a rich man.
"Oh, so that's how it is. No wonder I like eating rice crust so much. It turns out it's so nutritious."
Not to mention the predecessor of rice crust, as the assistant of the little cook of Wanmin Hall, no matter how simple the ingredients are, they can be turned into delicious food in Xiangling's hands, and her taste has long been pleasing to her.
Normally, Guoba would only eat a few pieces secretly, perhaps to amuse Xiangling. It was indeed rare for him to take the whole plate away as he did today.
Xiangling turned around and saw two empty plates and Guoba's "sluggish" face, pretending nothing had happened.
"Pot crust!"
［○·｀Д′·○］
Gu Sanqiu glanced at the creature who should have been called the senior ancestor, and nodded secretly.
Great! My plan went very successfully.
According to the custom of treating people well, it is not allowed for guests to cook. However, when Guoba saw Gu Sanqiu was about to walk into the kitchen, he wanted to run out and couldn't be stopped.
Gu Sanqiu, who knew some of the inside story, had no choice but to take out the ingredients he had saved, then waved his hand and asked Xiangling to cook, while he sat outside as an ordinary person watching the card game.
Now it seems that this plan is very good. Let Guoba experience how great the things he has touched are. Then find an opportunity to cook a meal. Then the title of "inheritance" of the master of dark cuisine can be removed from Gu's head.
Logically speaking, due to the limitations of the ingredients themselves, there is actually a certain limit to the blending of flavors. No matter how bad the food cooked by one of his ancestors was, it should not leave such a deep impression on this great god.
However, when he thought that the person was the ancestor of his own incense-burning lineage, Gu Sanqiu immediately felt that this was still acceptable.
Gu, a man with a slightly abnormal mind, is also a master of dark cuisine. It should be normal for him to be able to create some dark flavors that break through the limitations of ingredients, right?
"Sister, are you guys done here? It's time to eat."
Gu Sanqiu looked at the large stone table he had made improvisationally.
Well, the battle situation is stalemate and complicated.
"Brother Gu, Hall Master, since the food is ready, why don't you enjoy it first?"
Zhongli looked up at Gu Sanqiu: "We still have some processes to complete here."
"It will take a long time for you to finish dealing with it."
Walnut complained: "I can see that it won't be easy to decide the winner in this situation!"
"That's easy."
Gu Sanqiu rolled up his sleeves and said, "I can smash the table with one palm. This will definitely solve the problem in a short time."
"Um ?"
Ningguang and Beidou looked at Gu Sanqiu with a suppressive look.
"I was wrong."
Gu Sanqiu did not hesitate to defect: "Sisters, you guys go ahead and have fun. I'll go make you some simple meals and serve them to you."
Sure, you can make another portion of rice crust at the same time. If there is no opportunity, create one yourself. It’s perfect!
"Let's go, it seems like these guys won't leave the table until they decide the winner."
Xingqiu shook his head helplessly. He considered himself well -read and intelligent, but from the perspective of a spectator, this "game" seemed a bit overwhelming.
Perhaps it is just as Sanqiu said, the only way to resolve this battle in a short time is to smash the table with a slap.
"Let's go, it seems like these guys are our match."
Xin Yan also shook her head helplessly. It was just like when she met a friend who also liked rock music, and it was normal to want to talk with him late into the night.
Gu Sanqiu touched his chin. He was considering whether or not to explicitly prohibit the use of Liyue Millennium during future dinner parties.
This is a very time-consuming and brain-intensive game, so if you really want to calculate it, a few days and nights won't be a problem at all.
Hu Tao, Xing Qiu and Chong Yun began to serve the food, while Xiang Ling sat at the dining table, guarding the rice crust and paying attention to protecting their lunch dishes at all times.
"Eat, eat. We are all so familiar with each other. Just treat yourselves."
Gu Sanqiu put down the juice and walked into the kitchen: "I'll go make something simple for my sister."
Guoba's expression gradually became terrified, then his gaze returned to the table full of dishes in front of him, and he immediately shook his body from side to side with a smile.
“Hehe~”
He boiled the pot over high heat and added various spices. Gu Sanqiu simply threw all the ingredients into the pot and used the power of the wind element to control the distance between the ingredients and the wok to ensure that the temperature would not destroy the quality of the ingredients.
"Tsk, it's almost the same as refining pills."
…
"Okay, I've made some curry omelette rice for you guys."
Gu Sanqiu came out with a wooden tray and used elemental power to condense a small crystal column around the four people to hold the food.
"Just pour the sauce in the pot according to your taste."
"Well, thank you, Brother Gu."
Zhongli nodded, then looked at the omelette on the rice. It was shaking slightly in the breeze, but it wouldn't break.
“Interesting ingredients.”
It just so happens that Ningguang and Beidou are having a test battle, and Keqing has sent out a small group of troops for training. As a representative of a distant country, Zhongli chooses to sit on the mountain and watch the fight, and just has time to eat a meal.
Zhongli had just picked up the knife beside him when his trouser leg was grabbed by a round little hand.
"!!!"
Guoba looked horrified, but his hands did not stop.
"Guoba, what are you doing!"
