Chapter 114: Six Eats of the Heavenly Crow
The group accompanied Qi Huan to sweep the graves of Qi Qing and the original owner's parents. Walking on the road out of the garden, Qi Yuan invited Qi Huan to go back, "Do you want to go back to the Qi family today and meet the other people in the family?"
After Qi Huan really gave up his right to inherit the family head, Qi Yuan's smile became more sincere.
"No, we are traveling with a few friends who have other plans. We are in a hurry this time, and we will visit again when we have the chance." He didn't like the people of the Qi family very much, and now that the family was divided, he didn't plan to get involved too much with these people. It was enough to maintain superficial harmony and politeness.
Qi Yuan was not dissatisfied with being rejected, and continued, "The courtyard where your parents lived is still there, and there are still some of their things in it, which have basically not been moved. Do you want me to help you sort it out and move it to their private house?"
"Thank you very much for your help. I will ask the agency to arrange for the receipt of the goods when the time comes." Qi Huan thanked him politely.
The original owner's parents had two properties, one large and one small, on Tubai Star. The location was pretty good. Qi Huan stayed there temporarily according to Jiufang Yu's suggestion. He planned to find an agency to help with the renovation and tidying up. He would go and take a look next time he had time.
In addition, Qi Huan also inherited the cash in their accounts, the jewelry stored in the foundation's safe, and the shares of some commercial companies.
As for the share of the ancestral property, Qi Huan also inherited shares in the business projects invested by the foundation, but the foundation also provided him with a cash model, and as long as he was willing, he could cash it out according to the current value.
Jiufang Yu has already found someone to help evaluate the current operating conditions of those companies and projects. Qi Huan is not in a hurry to use the money and plans to wait until the report is out before deciding whether to continue holding or cashing out.
Adding the living expenses of the previous ten years, after a 70% to 80% discount, all the things Qi Huan inherited were worth about 40 to 50 million silver coins. Although this amount of money could not make a person rich, it was enough for a person to settle down in the Eightfold Star Region.
When Qi Huan thought that if those people had tried their best to find the original owner, they could have brought him back to the Eight-Layer Star Domain. In that way, he might not have died in the Waste Star Hunting Area and started another life, he couldn't like the current people in the Qi family represented by Qi Yuan.
The two sides said goodbye at the entrance of the cemetery and parted ways. Jiufang Yu wanted to take Qi Huan to other places in Tubai Star, but Qi Huan waved his hand enthusiastically and said, "No, let's talk about it next time. I have to go back now and hurry up to make a schedule."
His sister was able to carve out a niche in the professional field with her lab partners in an unfamiliar era, and managed her life and career to the extreme, so he couldn't lose either.
The recipe book that Qi Qing wrote down based on his memory could become a family heirloom of the Qi family. As the 'original' one, he must achieve even greater success.
"What schedule?" Jiufang Yu felt that he could no longer keep up with Qi Huan's brain, which was full of fantastic ideas.
"Of course, it's a schedule to achieve the goal."
"So what goal do you plan to achieve?" Jiufang Yu changed the question.
"First of all, the short-term goal is to quickly and smoothly complete the shallow and mid-level combing, and enter the combined combing stage as soon as possible to help you repair your mental picture." Qi Huan raised the first finger.
In the past two days, he has gradually adapted to Jiufang Yu's mental picture and has become more and more skilled in dealing with those branches. Not only can he stay in them for half an hour at a time, achieving the regular length of time for shallow combing, the number of combing times per day has also increased from once to once in the morning and once in the evening.
The shadows in the shallow mental scene have all been found, and it is expected that they will be sorted out after two more times, and then enter the middle-level sorting stage. Once the scale of the middle-level shadows is understood, the combined sorting will be just around the corner.
There was also good news from the medical team this morning. They had found a more effective way to use the mucus. Once we return to the Waste Planet, we will be able to achieve the best treatment effect by combining it with combing.
After a pause, Qi Huan glanced at Jiu Fangyu again and said, "I will set up a schedule. Starting today, you must cooperate well and not fall behind."
The person who was 'holding back' touched his nose awkwardly and said, "Okay."
"Second, I have decided to turn Renjian Restaurant into the first gem level seven legendary restaurant in the entire alliance." Qi Huan raised his second finger with a burning gaze.
During this period, Renjian Restaurant had no stores, so it only took the opportunity of a few Clear Sky Banquets to promote the scoring with the Golden Jade Egg Yolk Pastry. It has just reached the level of gem two stars.
The highest level of interstellar cuisine rating is Gem Level 6, so he wants to be the first restaurant to surpass the top level and break the ceiling.
The live broadcast room must work hard to maintain the popularity and continue to promote Renjian Restaurant. After several live broadcasts of Qingkong Banquet, the novelty began to decrease. During this period of time, we must also start considering separating from Qingkong Banquet and preparing new online dishes. The two dishes ordered by the store owner are just the right ones to take over first.
In addition, in addition to the Clear Sky Banquet, it is time to plan a second set of dinner menus. The dishes that were previously made in the live broadcast room can also be gradually moved offline in the future.
All in all, his future goal is to make everyone talk about the Renjian Restaurant, just like those people talked about those legendary dishes at the table a few days ago, all of which were filled with beautiful and happy memories and full of envy.
"Then it seems that I have to work hard to transform and run the waste star better, and provide you with more unique ingredients and a better dining environment." Jiufang Yu nodded seriously, "I have to provide strong support for the first legendary restaurant in the alliance."
"That's right, you have to work hard too." Qi Huan raised his arm and patted Jiu Fangyu's shoulder. Because of the height difference, his posture was a little awkward. "My third goal depends on you."
"Third target?"
"Interstellar tycoon!" Qi Huan leaned back slightly, resting his arms behind his head, and smiled contentedly in the evening breeze. "Whether I can live a worry-free life and enjoy financial freedom in the future depends on the rate of return on the money invested in Waste Planet No. 7. So, for the sake of my future quality of life, you must work harder and make a lot of money."
“Isn’t it achieved through restaurants in the human world?” Jiufang Yu wondered.
"That's different. It's my career and my passion." Qi Huan said confidently, "If I come across legendary ingredients and a client I like, I'll consider equal exchange or free hospitality."
"Of course, it's best to have both passion and profit." He paused and added.
"I see. I'm a ruthless money-making machine, and you're pursuing top-notch cooking skills." Jiufang Yu rubbed the top of his head, his eyes full of a doting smile.
"Yes, the spiritual understanding is very thorough." Qi Huan made a '6' gesture to the Star Lord.
The two returned to the port and happened to meet the shop owner and Senior A Luan who were returning from shopping in front of the small starship.
The four of them greeted each other as they boarded the ship. As soon as they stepped into the cabin, Jiufang Yu came to greet them. He winked at Jiufang Yu as he spoke, "Why did you come back just now? Your brother-in-law happened to be in the Eight Star Region to discuss something. He heard that you had arrived in Tubai, so he brought his friends to visit you. He has been waiting for a long time."
What do you mean you heard we were here? You hurried over because you heard you and Si Liang were there too, right? Jiufang Yu gave Jiufang Yu a look that showed understanding, but Jiufang Yu rolled his eyes in response.
"It was rather troublesome to handle, so it took some time." Jiufang Yu quickly raised his voice to reply, and walked towards the reception area with Jiufang Yu.
Jiufang Yu’s brother-in-law is the current head of the Si family, Si Liang’s father?
Qi Huan suddenly became a little nervous. He subconsciously followed the shop owner's footsteps and wanted to walk in another direction, but Jiufang Yu grabbed his wrist.
"Come with me to meet my brother-in-law." Jiufang Yu probed with his fingers, inserted them into the gaps between his fingers and intertwined theirs.
The white jade ring was a little uncomfortable. Qi Huan lowered his eyes to look at the pair of rings on their fingers that were tightly pressed together. He took a deep breath and thought, let's just meet them. We'll meet sooner or later.
Two adults and one child sat in the reception area. The child was naturally Si Liang. Next to him sat a tall and straight young man. His navy blue robe with gold patterns outlined his well-proportioned and strong figure. His long black hair was tied into a neat bun. He had a high nose bridge, a strong face, and a deep look with innate confidence.
Si Liang's appearance perfectly combines the advantages of him and Jiufang Yan.
The handsome young man next to him was actually an acquaintance, Bu Fan.
Qi Huan was stunned for a moment, then he remembered that the Bu family controlled the Eighth Star Region. It seemed that the head of the Si family should go to the Bu family when he came to the Eighth Star Region.
A set of tea-making utensils and several tea cups were placed on the table. The bowl was facing the empty seat next to Si Liang. Looking at the remaining sesame seeds, chestnuts, pine nuts, salted bamboo shoots, mint, green fruit and other leftovers on the plate, Jiufang Xun should have used the complicated recipe that Qi Huan taught him last time to make tea for several people.
Hearing the footsteps, the young man who was chatting with Si Liang looked over, with the same intimate smile on his face as when he was talking to his son, looking very friendly.
"Brother-in-law, sorry to have kept you waiting." Jiufang Yu hurriedly stepped forward to greet him, and generously pulled Qi Huan to introduce him, "This is Qi Huan, my fiancé."
Qi Huan greeted Si Wen somewhat awkwardly.
"You're being rude of me by not bringing a gift for Huanhuan." Si Wen's eyes moved lightly between Jiufang Yu and Qi Huan's crossed hands, and he sighed, "I can only make it up to you another day."
"It's okay, just give me a bigger one next time." Jiufang Yan sat down next to Si Liang with a smile.
"Of course." Si Wen nodded slightly, accepting the generous gift that the lady had 'requested', and pointed at Bu Fan next to him and said, "I don't need to introduce this person, you should all know him."
"I heard that you guys came to the Eighth Star Region, so I shamelessly came here with Patriarch Si to bother you." Bu Fan greeted the two with a smile, "What a coincidence, I just happened to get an S-level Sky Crow yesterday and didn't know what to do with it, and today I heard that you guys were coming, so I just happened to send it to you, and it won't be a waste if it's in Huanhuan's hands."
When Qi Huan heard this, his eyes lit up.
Tianwu is actually a blue-dotted silver carp with a dark blue back that is over five years old. This fish is a top-quality food in itself and is rare. Now is a dozen days before its five-year migration to spawn, when the fish meat is the most plump and delicious, and its price is extremely expensive.
Because its belly is as shiny as silver brocade at this time, its back is shiny blue-black, and its dorsal fin looks like a black blade, it is also called the Sky Black.
He had heard people mention it at the food market in the Fourth Star Domain that day. Unfortunately, this kind of fish is very difficult to catch, and once it is available, it has been reserved by diners very early. Qi Huan and his friends went to many stores that day but couldn't buy any.
I never expected to meet you here unexpectedly.
"In that case, let's try the six kinds of Tianwu tonight." Qi Huan simply suggested. Bu Fan personally brought it over, and the abacus beads were jumping on his face. He had no reason to spoil the fun. The head of the Si family happened to be there, so everyone tasted this top-quality Tianwu together.
"How do you eat six kinds of food?" Bu Fan showed an interested look.
"The first dish is the red sauce Tianwu. The meat on the back of the Tianwu is firm and delicate, and is best suited for roasting with autumn oil sauce. The fish meat is like the most colorful agate, with both color and taste." When talking about cooking, Qi Huan's awkwardness in meeting the "parents" disappeared, and he immediately talked freely.
"The second dish is called Tang Shao Tian Wu. We select the middle part with appropriate fat and delicate meat and slice it into thin slices. We use fish bones, ham and tender forest vegetables as the base to make soup. The fish is cooked in the soup. The taste is the most fresh and crisp. The third dish is braised Tian Wu head. We stew the fish head until the meat is tender and the bones are crispy. The soup is thick and smooth. No one can resist that taste."
Si Liang obviously didn't like eating fish, but he was swallowing his saliva silently as he listened to the conversation. If there weren't outsiders around, he would have wanted to go over and push Qi Huan to the kitchen and make it quickly, otherwise he was dying of greed.
"The fourth dish is grilled Tianwu. Cut the belly part with the most fat into half-finger square pieces and grill it with charcoal until the skin is golden and crispy. At that time, the fat will also perfectly penetrate into the fish meat underneath. It is only served with green salt and a little lemon juice, which is extremely tender. The fifth dish is to take the fish roe from its belly and make Tianwu white roe mapo tofu. It is slightly spicy and has the unique milky aroma of silk fish roe. It is smooth and refreshing. The sixth dish is to use fish tail, green beans, and bacon to make stewed rice, and then add ground dried vegetables. After stewing, mix it with the braised sauce from the third dish. It is delicious and plump, with a refreshing and sweet aftertaste."
"In the past, I've only heard that Diefengtang's signature dish, Green Beast, can be eaten three times. I didn't expect Huanhuan to be able to eat Tianwu six times." Si Wen was amazed after hearing this.
Bu Fan also nodded. "Starting from the characteristics of each part of the food, making full use of the different characteristics, cooking one fish into six completely different flavors is indeed exquisite."
Jiufang Yan smiled and said, "It seems that I will have to eat a lot of such delicious food later. I have to train for an extra hour in the gym tonight."
"Huanhuan, let's go." Si Liang finally couldn't bear it anymore. He left Jiufang Huan and Si Wen behind and dragged Qi Huan to the kitchen. The sooner the food was cooked, the sooner he could eat.
The little guy's anxious look made everyone in the hall laugh.
In addition to the six delicacies of Tianwu, Qi Huan also ordered braised beast meat, honey-glazed barbecued pork, baked pine crab with matsutake and lily, five-flavor braised liver, fried taro and bird's nest, ivory eggplant-roasted golden dragon and fresh abalone soup.
Si Liang was so greedy that he couldn't sit still in the reception room. He ran to the kitchen and brought back the aroma of dishes, which made the people who were drinking tea and chatting in the hall a little absent-minded. They started looking forward to the dinner with the little guy.
The red sauced Tianwu, the fragrant charcoal-grilled Tianwu, the steaming braised beast meat, the honey-glazed barbecued pork with a transparent glass shell...
Dishes were served to the crowd one after another, whetting their appetites.
Finally, Bufan's proud nine-tailed fox couldn't stand the temptation anymore and appeared with its nine fluffy and beautiful tails hooked by the fragrance.
Just as Qi Huan brought the last two dishes to the table and signaled everyone to start eating, Bu Fan's personal terminal suddenly vibrated. He lowered his eyes and took a look, and his face changed immediately.
"Sorry, something suddenly happened to me and I have to leave first." Bu Fan stood up apologetically.
"Now?" Qi Huan was a little surprised. Tianwu was brought by Bu Fan, so he had to finish eating before leaving, right?
The Si couple, Jiufang Yu, the shop owner and others also looked surprised.
"Urgent." Bu Fan only said two words briefly, but his feet had already walked out.
The nine-tailed fox swung its tail and looked at the table full of dishes reluctantly, but still stood on Bufan's shoulders.
Jiufang Yu and Si Wen looked at each other and stood up silently, "I'll take you there."
Walking into the corridor, Jiufang Yu lowered his voice and asked, "What happened?"
"My brother's son and his classmates from the military academy went to the Third Star Region for special training. They were kidnapped by space pirates. I have to rush to rescue them immediately."
