Capítulo 36: Chapter 35: A Ten-Day Deadline
Yi Ya's figure appeared very aged, but when Qi Han saw the knife in his hand effortlessly debone an entire fish in a single second without any stickiness, there were only seven words in Qi Han's mind.
This man has an Incredible knife skills.
It was truly a divine technique. Qi Han's entire impression of knife work was completely shattered under the flying knife light of Yi Ya.
Yi Ya's knife was extremely fast, but the fresh fish was scaled, gutted, deboned, and even the fish skin was undamaged under his knife.
The lingering soul had greater freedom than the previous illusion. Yi Ya's cooking process was happening right beside Qi Han, and he could easily see every detail.
This kind of learning was undoubtedly more efficient than before.
Marinating the fish and lamb, blanching the diced bamboo shoots and mushrooms, stir-frying the lamb and mushroom bamboo shoots together, stuffing the fish belly with the mixture, wrapping it with lard-netted pork, covering it with aluminum foil, and baking it in the oven.
Step by step, it unfolded before Qi Han's eyes. Every time it reached a critical moment, Yi Ya would slow down his movements and perform the actions from the angle that appeared the clearest to Qi Han.
Soon, a plate of Fish Belly Stuffed with Lamb was presented before Qi Han.
A piece of green lotus leaf was placed on the plate. In the middle of the lotus leaf, a fish with a lightly golden-brown surface lay peacefully on its side.
The lotus leaf not only added visual appeal but also carried the aroma of lotus, which blended with the fragrance of Fish Belly Stuffed with Lamb, enhancing the combination of the fish and lamb's flavors with the added mushroom aroma. The result was a distinct separation of flavors.
Qi Han carefully used chopsticks to open the part of the fish belly. As the fish belly was exposed, the aroma of the lamb wrapped inside it burst out instantly, filling the entire kitchen with its rich fragrance that couldn't be dissipated.
Feeling greedy for the taste, Qi Han used his chopsticks to pick up a piece of fish and lamb and brought it to his mouth.
As soon as it entered his mouth, the sweetness of the fish and the richness of the lamb permeated each other. The flavors were distinct, and the lard-netted pork brought a wonderful charred aroma that made the fish tender and elastic without being dry.
The lamb carried its original gaminess, but it wasn't overpowering. The slight gaminess blended with the natural umami of the lamb, instantly giving the lamb a unique flavor distinct from beef or pork.
Truly deserving to be a recipe created by the system. Qi Han had never experienced such a fresh taste before.
A serving of Fish Belly Stuffed with Lamb quickly disappeared into Qi Han's stomach, leaving nothing behind.
Unfortunately, the special effect of Fish Belly Stuffed with Lamb still didn't have any effect on Qi Han. Otherwise, he really wanted to experience what it would be like to have a deep meditation.
For a Spirit Master, deep meditation seemed like a chance encounter that couldn't be sought.
"System, how much does Fish Belly Stuffed with Lamb cost?"
[1000 gold Coins per serving.]
Wow, the most expensive item in the store was the Dongpo Pork Knuckle for 100 gold Coins, and now Fish Belly Stuffed with Lamb is being sold for ten times that price.
So, this is what a 3 Star recipe is like, very impressive.
But thinking about the delicious taste of Fish Belly Stuffed with Lamb and its special effect on Spirit Masters, Qi Han felt that the price was not unreasonable at all.
With the completion of Fish Belly Stuffed with Lamb, Yi Ya's lingering soul gradually dissipated. Unlike the chef's illusion, before the lingering soul disappeared completely, it looked deeply at Qi Han, carrying encouragement, which made Qi Han's heart warm.
Subconsciously, Qi Han bowed respectfully to the dissipating Yi Ya's lingering soul. When he raised his head, Qi Han seemed to see a faint smile at the corner of the nearly invisible Yi Ya's lingering soul.
After a moment of silence, Qi Han spoke softly.
"System, what happens when the lingering soul dissipates?"
[After teaching the host, the lingering soul contained in the recipe will dissipate and return to the heavens or hell.]
Return to heaven or hell...
Qi Han sighed softly and walked towards the cooking area where he was the only one left.
Fish Belly Stuffed with Lamb training, begin!
[Mistake occurred. Damaged the fish meat while deboning the whole fish. Host. Please restart.]
[Mistake occurred. Damaged the fish meat while deboning the whole fish. Host. Please restart.]
[Mistake occurred. Damaged the fish meat while deboning the whole fish. Host. Please restart.]
...
Until the evening when the restaurant opened, Qi Han emerged from the training space. He still couldn't achieve the perfect deboning of the whole fish without damaging the fish skin or meat as required by the system.
"It truly deserves to be a 3 Star recipe." Qi Han sighed lightly and then looked at Fu Ya, who had come early. "What are we having for dinner tonight?"
Fu Ya was already dressed in her maid outfit and blushed slightly at Qi Han's words. "Egg Fried Rice and Tomato Beef Brisket."
Fu Ya was no longer as restrained as before, but she still felt a bit embarrassed when ordering.
She really just wanted a serving of Egg Fried Rice, but every time she ordered that, Qi Han would take the liberty to add a side dish.
In the end, Fu Ya realized that her boss was indeed exceptional in this aspect, and she finally gave up struggling.
After a few days of eating the delicious food cooked by her boss, Fu Ya felt that she was becoming a bit overnourished. She had no choice but to channel her embarrassment into her nighttime cultivation, striving to absorb and convert all the nutrients into Spirit Power.
After a few days of effort, Fu Ya felt that she was getting close to level 43, and she might break through soon.
Thanks to her, Ying Shuang started to feel a sense of crisis and increased her cultivation frequency.
Fu Ya cleared the dishes and skillfully placed them in the dishwasher. Then she used her ice attribute Spirit Power to clean the table and sat down, waiting for the restaurant to open.
Seeing this, Qi Han suddenly said, "Fu Ya, you don't have to come in the next few days."
Huh?
Fu Ya was momentarily stunned, and then her eyes reddened. "Boss, did I do something wrong?"
"Huh?" Qi Han looked at Fu Ya, who suddenly teared up, feeling a bit caught off guard.
But he quickly understood what was happening and said with a wry smile, "No, Fu Ya, you misunderstood. I'm not firing you. I have some things to take care of and will be leaving Shrek City for a few days, so you don't need to come."
"Ah?" Fu Ya finally realized that she had overreacted, and her eyes were no longer red. Instead, her cheeks turned slightly pink.
How embarrassing
After hesitating for a moment, Fu Ya asked, "Boss, when will you be back?"
"Well..." This question puzzled Qi Han. According to his plan, he intended to complete the Promotion Quest in the Kalei Forest before coming back.
But if he had to specify when exactly he would return, that was difficult.
Seeing Qi Han's expression, Fu Ya felt a bit troubled.
It seemed like the boss couldn't contact her, so what should she do?
Suddenly, her eyes lit up as she thought of a solution. "Boss, how about I come by every noon to see if you've returned?"
Qi Han pondered for a moment, holding his chin, and finally nodded.
Although it would be a bit tiring for Fu Ya to do so, he didn't have a better solution. In the world of Douluo, there were no mobile phones, and communication still relied on the most primitive means of letters. It would be quite difficult for him to contact Fu Ya once he returned.
"At most ten days, and I'll be back," Qi Han said, looking at Fu Ya, his voice firm.
If he couldn't develop a new 1 Star recipe within ten days, it meant he didn't have the ability yet. In that case, he would return to continue running the restaurant and wait for further accumulation and development in the future.
There was no need to keep wasting time in the Kalei Forest. Wasn't it great to earn money during this time?
