"Chicken legs and elephant hooves stewed with mountain mushrooms, oxtail and elephant hooves soup made with whalebone and seaweed, and lamb ribs and elephant hooves roasted with special ghost peppers... Please enjoy!" Liu Maoxing cooked three dishes in one go. The
leg meat of the elephant hoof flying dragon has many different properties, so Liu Maoxing also made three dishes separately...
Whether it is the rich and heavy "stew", the fresh and full "soup", or the tender and juicy "roast", it is fully reflected at this moment!
Guan Liyuan even felt that when the three dishes were tasted together, the tastes were faintly promoted and coordinated with each other...
Suddenly, Guan Liyuan heard a cry.
"Woo woo woo..." Yuemon cried like a man in his fifties.
"That... uncle, why are you crying? Otherwise, I'll give you my share too?" Guan Liyuan asked helplessly.
"I remember... I hunted many elephant-hoof flying dragons that broke into the territory before, and I threw them back after killing them... wuwuwu..." Yuemon cried with heartache, while taking the stew and soup in front of Guan Liyuan.
Guan Liyuan didn't argue with him. After a feast, Yuemon still proposed to acquire Liu Maoxing's elephant-hoof flying dragon processing technology on behalf of igo.
"After the acquisition, it will be open technology?" Liu Maoxing confirmed.
"That's right, non-toxic and non-endangered food processing technology will be made public after acquisition by igo, and we don't charge any fees. On the contrary, if a registered chef uses your technology, we will give you a patent fee of 5% of the net profit." Yuemon said.
This is equivalent to the reward that igo gives to developers of new food processing technology. Of course... If you want to commercialize it as a unique technology, you can apply for it in igo, and igo can maintain the patent for free for 30 years. During this period, even if someone deciphers the technology, it cannot be used. It will be made public after 30 years.
If you are confident that no one can copy it, you don't need to apply for it and you can operate it exclusively forever. If it is deciphered, it will not be protected by igo.
Yuemon wanted to popularize with Liu Maoxing the benefits of accepting the acquisition of igo, but Liu Maoxing said indifferently: "Sure, I can give you the process and the amount of ingredients... But I have to state in advance that these three dishes are far from my peak. I just use the materials at hand."
But Liu Maoxing's worries are unnecessary... The "patent" here does not need to be surprising, but refers to "incorporating new ingredients into human recipes", such as elephant hoof flying dragons that could not be processed or eaten before, so now Liu Maoxing's cooking method can apply for a patent. If it is just a recipe improvement, you can only create your own brand.
After that, Yuemon immediately took out his mobile phone again and thought about it for a long time in front of the screen...
Guan Liyuan couldn't help but remind him: "You saved the address book."
Yuemon suddenly realized and flipped through the address book, and contacted the research institute again, this time asking them to issue a patent certificate.
In addition, the identity issues of Guan Liyuan and Liu Maoxing were also resolved...
It seems that in the food world of this world, there are still human descendants, that is, food hunters who failed to return from exploring the food world before, but also found relatively safe small places to live and reproduced.
Because of Liu Maoxing's cooking skills, the two of them successfully applied for a "food ID" at the research institute on the border between the human world and the food world, which is similar to an ID card...
and received 100 million patent fees - because the elephant hoof flying dragon is a creature in the food world and rarely appears in the human world, the price is not high, and it can be imagined that there will not be many people who use this technology in the future.
In terms of the purchasing power of the human world, 100 million is probably enough for an ordinary family to live for a lifetime - the quality of life of ordinary people in the human world... mainly the quality of food is still very high! The cost of food is absolutely better than the price of housing and cars, otherwise it would be a waste of life. Generally, no one is willing to form a family with such people.
If it is in a turbulent area, just to maintain the minimum living standard, this number can be expanded dozens or even hundreds of times.
However, the upper limit is higher... If some ingredients with high capture level or rare ingredients are used, or if they are cooked by famous chefs, a dish can easily cost hundreds of millions, or even unstoppable!
In the real stories of this world, there are often cases where a wealthy man throws away all his wealth for some delicious dishes, and even the head of a country changes the national policy because of a meal.
After all, "eating" is the theme of this world, the root of all entertainment projects, the object of service of all industries, and the pinnacle of all productivity...
But when igo proposed to hire Liu Maoxing as an exclusive chef, Liu Maoxing directly refused.
For this world, Liu Maoxing couldn't wait to see it in person, and he also wanted to find the best dishes with Guan Liyuan. It was impossible to stay in a corner.
After asking the research institute for some basic information, encyclopedia books, and maps, Guan Liyuan and Liu Maoxing officially embarked on the journey...
Half a month later, on the ship heading to the East Continent, Guan Liyuan and Liu Maoxing were in a separate VIP cabin, both holding a book and reading, but Guan Liyuan was obviously reading a magazine, while Liu Maoxing was holding a document more than 30 centimeters thick.
Although from the perspective of the whole world, the "human world" is just a safe zone, like a small oasis in the desert, but in fact, it has a complete social structure like the hunters. For the people here, the "human world" can be said to be a world.
Moreover, the hunters have only more than 5 billion people, while the human world has 30 billion people, and the area is much larger, divided into eight continents, namely the "Wak Continent" located in the west of the human world and connected to the Three Paths, the "Ice Continent" in the extremely cold south, the "North Xulu Continent" and the "South Xulu Continent" located in the southwest, the "North Continent" in the north, the "East Continent" in the east, the "Baraka Continent" in the northeast, and the "Central Continent" in the middle connecting the North Xulu Continent and the East Continent.
The land of the "Central Continent" is roughly divided into three sections. The area is only larger than the Ice Continent and is about the same size as the Baraka Continent, but it has the largest population, about 10 billion.
Due to environmental reasons, the Ice Continent has the smallest population and almost no permanent residents. The second largest continent is the Wak Continent, which is closest to the entrance to the food world and has the most advanced creatures. It can be said to be sparsely populated. The largest continent is the North Continent, which has the largest forest coverage area and has the largest forest in the human world - the Lost Forest.
The second largest forest, the "Xu Forest", is located in the North Xulu Continent. The South Xulu Continent has land connected to it, but the plates are different. The Baraka Continent has many islands, and the Baron Islands are located in its south. The East Continent further south has more mountainous and cave terrain...
At this time, Guan Liyuan and Liu Maoxing were on their way to the East Continent. They were also crossing the human world from west to east, but the level of technology here was much higher than that of the hunters, and the means of transportation were more convenient.
The reason why they came all the way here was because there were recent media reports that the puffer whale population, which spawns once every ten years, would spawn near the East Continent in the near future. This was a once-in-a-decade opportunity to catch puffer whales...
At this time, Guan Liyuan also understood some common sense in the human world, and based on the idea of "getting a free meal", he strongly advocated going to see the puffer whale.
Liu Maoxing naturally had no objection... Especially after seeing the report exaggerating the difficulty of handling puffer whales, Liu Maoxing was even more eager to try!
