Chapter 33 Eat, eat, eat!
……
…
In the quiet night, on the dock, people have returned home.
There is also a bright oil lamp hanging outside the cabin.
Inside the boathouse.
Ta-ta-ta-ta!
Chen Qi was cutting beef and looked back at the three people in his little broken boat.
An, Xiao Maruo, and Mayor Maruo, the three of them were sitting at the dining table, holding spoons and knives and forks, their eyes filled with anticipation.
The three of them helped Chen Qi clean up the houseboat, rearrange the kitchen, and get ingredients.
Why? Why is this the case? Why am I suddenly cooking for three people?
Chen Qi shook his head, poured the chopped beef into the pot, added onions and ginger, and blanched them.
Then he took out potatoes and celery, dried tofu, squid, and chicken, and started cutting them silently.
Chen Qi recalled what happened before.
After he finished dealing with Iron Hand, An was startled and immediately flipped through the information.
Iron Hand is suddenly a wanted criminal on the list, from the Black Rabbit Gang in Moonstone City, with a reward of 200,000 shellfish!
An removed Iron Hand's robotic arm and handed it over to the department responsible for the bounty.
According to her information, the money will arrive tomorrow.
However, An still had many questions about why Chen Qi was pursued by Iron Hand.
In a sense, Chen Qi was also tricked by the Black Rabbit Gang.
So, he made up a story: "When he was working, he was tricked into the Black Rabbit Gang because of his greed for small money. Then by chance, he got the collector. Finally, relying on the collector, he became a member of the Black Rabbit Gang. An inspirational story about the Rabbit Gang running wild all night and successfully escaping from the criminal gang's den.
Gang members often seek revenge.
And this Iron Hand came here to chase him because of the Collector. "
He had indeed experienced something similar, except that he replaced the 'Black Whale Group' with the 'Black Rabbit Gang' and the 'Deep Sea Hunter's Treasure' with 'Collectors'.
After hearing this, I expressed my deepest sympathy.
It is really pitiful for a sick young man to go to a big city to work due to illness, but accidentally joins a gang.
She has a great imagination.
She could imagine the tender-skinned Chen Qi, pitiful, helpless, and humiliated in the dungeon of the Black Rabbit Gang.
Therefore, An decided to provide psychological counseling to Chen Qi and be wary of potential unknown accomplices.
Then, she sat down at the dining table very naturally.
Mayor Maro heard the sound and came over.
When he heard about Chen Qi's killing of the wanted criminal, he suddenly trembled!
Although he guessed that when Chen Qi was not in Maruo Town, he must have done some big things.
But he never expected that Chen Qi could actually kill a ruthless gang member, but considering that Chen Qi had a gun, he reluctantly accepted it.
Two hundred thousand shellfish is not a small amount of money!
At the same time, Chen Qi became a first-order transcendent today.
This kid is so terrifying, he will become a great talent in the future!
So, he got four bottles of wine and decided to celebrate.
Then, very naturally, he sat down at the dining table.
When Xiao Ma Luo heard that Iron Hand died suddenly, he suddenly realized.
It turns out that Chen Qi is a ruthless man from a gang. This is the gang fight reported in the newspapers.
He thought again of his previous casual attitude and disrespectful tone towards the other party, and suddenly felt fear and trembled all over!
But fear is fear, but you still have to eat what you have to eat. The other party can't do it to him.
So, he sat down at the dining table very naturally on the grounds that he was hungry.
This small broken boat inexplicably endured a weight that was not proportional to its size, and there were three guests.
Chen Qi turned back again and looked at the expectant eyes of the three guests.
The profession of chef seems to be more popular than he thought.
But although he is a chef, this is his first time cooking in another world.
It's a lot of pressure... Chen Qi wiped the sweat off his head.
He didn't know whether the people on the coast of this other world were accustomed to the food he cooked.
Chen Qi took a look at the ingredients. Although they were from another world, they were all common ingredients and seasonings on Earth.
Beef, potatoes, parsley, tofu, a fish and chicken, and two squid.
"There's not much seafood, I hope it won't be too bad..."
Chen Qi put the chopped vegetables aside and started cooking.
The chef profession increases the learning speed of cooking knowledge and improves his cooking skills.
Potatoes and beef make delicious and simple potato and beef stew.
In the morning, heat up the oil in a pot, put down the green onion and ginger, add the bean paste commonly used in Maruo Town, and stir-fry together to create the aroma.
Then, add the chopped beef to the pot and stir-fry.
While Chen Qi was cooking, An sniffed and said to Chen Qi:
"By the way, did you notice something was wrong before you entered the houseboat?"
An suddenly remembered that Chen Qi looked back at her before entering the houseboat.
Thinking about it now, she suddenly realized that Chen Qi's eyes didn't seem to invite her to dinner.
That look in his eyes meant something else!
"Well..."
Chen Qi nodded.
An shook his head and said seriously: "This is too dangerous. You should tell me first. If a first-order transcendent is handled by me, it will be much better. You don't have to worry."
"..."
Chen Qi stir-fried the beef.
Indeed, An was right, asking her to deal with Iron Hand was also an option.
After all, with An's strength, he only needed a simple fireball technique to knock out Iron Hand in seconds.
Hmm... maybe you can also destroy your own ship in seconds.
But there are many dangers in this world. If he is even afraid to face a first-order transcendent who knows the information and location, then the road ahead will be even more difficult.
Of course, the main reason is that he wants the reward.
Also, he thought An noticed it at first.
An ate a peanut and prepared to continue talking.
Chen Qi thought for a while and then blocked her mouth with questions:
"By the way, do you guys like spicy food? I got a little bit of deviled chili pepper when I was in the monster kitchen."
chili! This is a rare ingredient!
An stayed in the imperial capital and likes spicy food very much.
An swallowed her water and nodded:
"Eat."
When the heat reaches a certain level, Chen Qi puts the seasonings and potatoes into the pot. Start the fever!
If you want beef to be delicious, it needs to be stewed for a long time.
Immediately afterwards, Chen Qi went outside the ship and began to process other ingredients.
Squid and chicken, just use the barbecue method!
Chen Qi got a barbecue grill on the pier and prepared to cook grilled chicken and grilled squid.
After a busy meal.
Beef stew with potatoes, grilled squid, and grilled chicken. The three dishes are all cooked in the same way.
There are also two dishes such as parsley tofu and pan-fried fish.
Should be enough for four people...
Chen Qi returned to the boat and looked at the stewed potatoes and beef with satisfaction. He had not eaten for a day.
However, he had one important thing to do before serving it to the table.
That is to use his skill [Soul Seasoning]!
Chen Qi looked into the pot, grabbed a small handful of green onions, mixed them with spiritual power, and sprinkled them.
The moment the soul seasoning and chives fall on the food, the aroma of potato stewed beef is further stimulated, exuding a delicious aroma.
As the soul adjusts, this fragrant and rich potato beef stew is successfully completed.
Prompts also popped up in front of his eyes.
[Successfully cook ‘Potato Beef Stew’ and get 80 spiritual points! 】
Chen Qi raised the corners of his mouth and smiled happily:
"As expected of me!"
Eighty spiritual points!
This is already quite a high value.
Just as he thought, soul seasoning can greatly enhance the deliciousness of ingredients.
Without soul seasoning, cooking with eighty spiritual points using ordinary ingredients requires at least five-star chef level skills.
Immediately afterwards, Chen Qi grabbed a handful of cumin and sprinkled it on the grilled squid and chicken.
The scent of cumin, mixed with the scent of barbecue, instantly spread across this small pier.
An and Mayor Maro swallowed their saliva. They had been working all day and were hungry.
However, they overlooked one thing. Chen Qi's cooking time took longer than they thought!
They smelled the fragrance for almost an hour.
It's very late at night now!
"So hungry..."
An An murmured in his heart, slumped on the table like a tired kitten.
Chen Qi serves beef stew with potatoes, grilled squid and grilled chicken.
"Long wait."
The food is finally served. If it is not served, I will starve to death! An smelled the aroma of beef and instantly cheered up.
Immediately afterwards, Chen Qi stir-fried tofu with celery and pan-fried fish quickly and brought them to the table.
Chen Qi looked at them and clapped his hands: "Everyone, let's eat. I just became a chef and I don't know how to do it."
Chen Qi looked at his dish and suspected that the taste might be unsatisfactory due to the lack of many seasonings.
I don't know if it suits their taste.
"Okay! I'll eat first."
Ann couldn't bear it anymore. She carefully took a small bite of beef and potatoes with a spoon, and put the potatoes and beef into her mouth.
"How about it?"
Chen Qi asked curiously.
An felt it carefully.
The softness of the beef and the softness of the potatoes are intertwined on the tip of the tongue, coupled with the rich soup and slight spiciness, forming a wonderful taste.
Why is it so delicious! An's face flushed slightly, showing an expression of enjoyment:
"It's delicious. What seasoning did you add?"
It’s a soul, I added a soul!
Chen Qi touched his nose confidently.
The technique and seasoning are not enough, so extraordinary strength comes together.
The spicy taste is because he added a little bit of deviled pepper.
"I'll try it too."
As a wealthy man, Mayor Maro has eaten a lot of delicious food.
He also curiously ate a piece of beef.
He suddenly felt a warm current coming from his body, and the fragrance bloomed on his taste buds:
"It's delicious. I heard that the food prepared by the extraordinary chef is so delicious that the clothes will explode. It seems that this is not a rumor."
Exploding clothes... Chen Qi thought about it.
In this world, delicacies that are so delicious do exist.
However, this is because some extraordinary ingredients can strengthen a person's body and make their muscles instantly larger.
If diners wear tight clothes while eating, they will burst out of their clothes on the spot, and the visual effect will be extremely stunning.
Of course, he doesn't have extraordinary ingredients and can't make delicious food with explosive effect.
Everyone started eating, and Chen Qi also put a piece of beef in his mouth.
The flavors of beef and soup slowly spread on the tongue.
tasty!
So delicious!
It turns out that such delicious food can exist in other worlds.
In the past few days, all he had eaten was dry bread.
Now, being able to take a bite of beef is considered a pleasure.
Even ordinary ingredients can taste so delicious. I wonder how delicious food cooked with extraordinary ingredients can be!
Chen Qi thought as he picked up a piece of slightly burnt roast chicken and put it in his mouth.
Just like that, everyone started to cook.
…
…
Bang!
Mayor Maro brought slightly sweet wine, and everyone drank it directly.
When An was almost finished eating, he took a sip of wine and said:
"So full!
By the way, Qi.
Do you want to open a tavern in Maro Town? I think the food you cook is much more delicious than my father's.
When the time comes, I will definitely kill my father’s tavern. "
Due to professional tasks, a chef often opens a restaurant.
Kill the only dockside tavern in Marrow Town? With his status as an extraordinary chef, he might actually be able to do it.
Chen Qi thought for a moment and took a sip of wine:
"No, I have no plans to open a tavern in the town. Well... I might build a dining boat."
