Chapter 83 I have tolerated you for a long time
This kind of perverse logic that is so righteous that it is evil is indeed someone's style. Jiufang Yu stared at the round face of the person on the surveillance screen in silence, and his fingers silently itched again.
"If you hear something that makes you unhappy, just scratch it to death." The young master added freely according to his own understanding, "It's already delivered to my door anyway, so I'll just scratch it."
The little paper crane that was chasing and playing with Zhou Qiba on the table was unfolded and folded again, and immediately folded into a sharp claw, as if it was going to help scratch people.
The black ball poked Xiaobai with its paws in a daze, urging it to change back.
Jiufang Yu looked at his 'claws' and raised his long frosty eyebrows, "You two are so compatible, you can start an interstellar scratching guild together in the future."
"I'm too busy lately. Let's talk about it when I'm free later." The young master answered seriously.
Jiufang Yu: ...
Huai Tong and Yang Yuan were both speechless after hearing the question. Qi Huan ignored them and left the dough to relax while kneading the eight and the minced meat.
The atmosphere around the long table was a little stagnant, and many viewers on the other side of the live broadcast room were also stunned.
In fact, there are many rational passers-by and fans in the live broadcast room on Starnet who have raised similar questions. Unfortunately, their number is still too small compared to the entire group of people paying attention to this matter. Few people can see those speeches, and a few minutes later they are overwhelmed by a bunch of emotional remarks and cannot be found.
At this moment, Qi Huan asked these two questions in front of the public, and many people in front of the screen suddenly realized, yes, the anchor was accused of deceiving the world and stealing the name, whose name did he steal? Why didn't anyone stand up from the beginning to the end?
If there really is such a person doing this behind the scenes, what is he after? A new anchor, a new anchor living in a place like Feixing, with no fame and no money, what can he be bribed with? Besides, with such an amazing skill, it is better to broadcast directly by yourself instead of doing it for others, making money faster and having your own reputation.
If the other party is already a famous celebrity chef, it would be even more difficult for the anchor to come up with something that would impress him. After all, their status and resources are even more unequal. Unless the third best chef in the world has saved his life, there is really no reason for them to condescend to do this.
On the contrary, it’s like what the host just asked, who can cook the dishes he broadcast live at that level now?
The only possibility is probably a five-star chef.
Everyone at the long table also thought of this and looked at Po Zhan who was sitting at the table.
But the old man was leisurely peeling salt-baked nuts on a plate for his wife, while admiring Qi Huan's method of cutting sashimi, and he didn't intend to refute the host's words at all.
When everyone followed his gaze, Qi Huan had already started cutting fish sashimi. The knife in his hand drew a beautiful arc in the air, which turned into numerous afterimages in the blink of an eye. The silver tip of the blade flashed with brilliant light, and pieces of fish meat fell like snowflakes. While everyone was dazzled, only the skeleton of the black fish on the rack was left.
Huai Tong was just humiliated and was unwilling to accept it. He was in no mood to appreciate Qi Huan's knife skills. The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. He deliberately said something to provoke him, "Old man, did you hear that? Just now, this young man was talking nonsense, saying that the dishes he cooked could not be made by anyone in the entire alliance."
"Yes," Old Man Pozhan nodded. Just as he was about to speak, Qi Huan came over with a large tray of freshly cut fish sashimi and distributed it to everyone, "The first dish of the Clear Sky Banquet, golden and jade sashimi."
There are two peonies on each plate. The snow-white fish slices are stacked to form plain peonies, as thin as cicada wings and piled like white gauze. The bright red meat slices turn into red peonies, and colorful light flashes between the fiber textures. One is big and the other is small, one is white and the other is red, with yellow golden stamens, which are colorful and gorgeous, and the beauty of the country.
"Master, I spoke rudely just now. Please punish me." Qi Huan freed his hands and bowed to Po Zhan.
Everyone in the room paused as they were reaching for the fish sashimi with their chopsticks widened. What did they just hear? Master? Could it be that the little anchor was Po Zhan's apprentice?
"I'm just telling the truth. What's the point of punishing me? Go and cook." Po Zhan waved his hand nonchalantly, as if he was afraid that he would disturb him and his wife from tasting the fish sashimi. These were the top-grade black fish and beast meat they had brought from the Fifth Star Region, packed in the highest-grade storage bags, and they were best eaten when they were freshest.
Qi Huan left as he was told, and Po Zhan and his wife began to eat the fish sashimi with gusto. Bu Fan, Lin Jian and others were more concerned about the true taste of the golden and jade sashimi, and immediately picked up their chopsticks. The two food connoisseurs also picked up their chopsticks after hesitating. The rest of them were thinking about the shocking news they had just heard, and some suspected that they had heard it wrong. They were caught off guard by the news and most of them had no appetite.
Qi Shan clenched his fists silently. Don’t be anxious. There are still two trump cards. With both hands prepared, there won’t be any problems.
When they were almost done eating, Qi Huan had already brought over the other two dishes. "The second dish of the Clear Sky Banquet is the Crispy Yellow Du, and the third dish is the Animal Tongue Skewer. Please enjoy them."
The crispy yellow tuhe and animal tongue skewers just out of the pot were fragrant and made one's mouth water. Bu Fan couldn't wait to pick up his chopsticks. The crispy skin made a crackling sound between his teeth, which soon turned into a satisfied sigh. The real thing is still delicious!
A beautiful white fox as long as a forearm could not help but transform into its real form and jump out. Bu Fan reluctantly gave it a plate of food. The little fellow immediately started eating, with its nine big fluffy and soft tails wagging happily behind it.
Seeing the furry tail of the 'Nine-tailed Su', Qi Huan was also somewhat delighted, and he managed to resist the urge to touch it.
The nine-tailed fox was not the only spiritual being that jumped out. There was also a green vine ball that looked like a tumbleweed next to Lin Jian's hand, which was holding a piece of crispy yellow fruit in the middle and "chewing it madly".
It turns out that Lin Jian's spirit body is similar to his hair? Qi Huan nodded in understanding. He was about to turn around and go back to the stove to prepare the next dish when a media reporter couldn't help but ask him for confirmation, "Just now I heard you call Master Pozhan your master. Did you become his disciple?"
"Yes, why do you call him Master?" Huai Tong got Qi Shan's look and asked.
That's what I've been waiting for. Qi Huan looked at Po Zhan as if asking for instructions, and when he saw that the old man had no intention of objecting, he answered, "It's fate. I accidentally clicked into Master's live broadcast room before, and got to know Master and his wife by accident. We got along well, and Master taught me many tricks and tips, which opened my eyes, and my cooking skills also improved greatly."
"Since you are the old man's apprentice, why didn't you say so earlier?" Yang Yuan immediately asked, "If you had used the title of Po Zhan's apprentice in the live broadcast room, you would have been famous all over the Star Network a month ago, right?"
"After I got to know him, I found out the real identity of Master." Qi Huan sighed and acted embarrassed. "But I am just a little-known chef from a useless star. I haven't even passed the chef certificate exam. I am afraid that it will tarnish Master's reputation if I make it public. Secondly, they both chose to broadcast live with virtual images just for the sake of peace and quiet. How can I ruin Master's hard-earned peaceful life just for my own sake?"
That's right. The two food connoisseurs nodded. After the Pozhan couple went on a trip, there was almost no news about them on Starnet. It was obvious that they didn't want to be disturbed.
"Once I was having a drink and a meal with friends. In order to hide this matter, I was drunk and made up a ridiculous excuse. I said I learned it from a recipe. Everyone was drunk at the time and actually believed it. I guess even if I made up an even more ridiculous story like I was struck by a thunderbolt and suddenly became enlightened, some people would still believe it." Qi Huan seemed to contribute his own jokes casually.
Everyone laughed, but Qi Shan's face darkened. They had the witness recording in their hands, ready to use it as evidence to interrogate him about the recipe at the right time, but they were caught off guard by Qi Huan's explanation that it was just drunken talk. Now it had been spread through the live broadcast room. If he took out the recording again, it would have almost no effect, and he would only be laughed at for taking drunken talk seriously.
This guy must have done this on purpose to monopolize the recipe. He deserves death! Qi Shan clenched his fists under the table, looked at Qi Huan who was walking back to the stove with resentment, lowered his eyes and thought for a moment, then sent a message to Huai Tong and Yang Yuan.
"The fourth dish of the Clear Sky Banquet is Yunmeng Meat with Wrapped Flowers, and the fifth dish is Beast Marrow Bamboo Shoots." Qi Huan came over for the third time to serve the dishes. As soon as he introduced the names of the dishes and put down the plates, Huai Tong started to attack.
"I think something is not right after thinking about it," Huai Tong glanced at Qi Huan, then looked at the old man Po Zhan who was sitting on the other side, "Since you are the old man's apprentice, and the cooking skills were all taught by the old man, then how come no one can cook the dishes in your live broadcast room? The old man has more than one apprentice, and they have been training for decades longer than you. Logically speaking, they should be better than you in cooking these dishes, right?"
"Yes, and with so many amazing dishes, why has no one mentioned them before?" Yang Yuan also jumped out and asked another question.
The two food connoisseurs stopped their chopsticks reaching for the Yunmeng meat and nodded. One of them said, "That's right. We have participated in many banquets and food tastings over the years, but we have never even heard of the names of these dishes, let alone eaten them."
"If anyone has ever tasted a dish like this, they would definitely want to show off about it in private, even if they are asked to keep it secret," added another.
"A few days ago, I also checked a lot of data and recipe lists that are said to be rare copies, but I couldn't find the names of these dishes." Another reporter followed up.
"That's strange~" Huai Tong clicked his tongue and deliberately dragged out the tone. Seeing that the topic was developing in the direction he wanted, he revealed a hint of pride.
Qi Huan was about to speak, but old man Pozhan spoke first, "The soup is boiling, go take care of your dishes first."
Qi Huan had no choice but to turn around and walk towards the stove. The old man continued, "What's so strange about this? It's not strange at all. You haven't heard of it because no one has ever cooked these dishes before."
Everyone: ???
"Grandpa, you don't mean to say that he has a great talent for cooking and has learned to make your family's top-notch dishes that even the four-star chefs can't cook?" There was a hint of obvious sarcasm in Yang Yuan's tone.
The old man shook his head, "Of course not."
Yang Yuan and Huai Tong both looked pleased and were about to speak when the old man changed the subject, "He is a rare genius in the star chef world."
Yang Yuan & Huai Tong: !!!!!!
A reporter looked at Po Zhan cautiously, "Old man, what do you mean?"
"I only taught him some basic techniques and my own experience over the years. After he figured it out and understood it thoroughly, he reached a higher level and then developed these amazing new dishes."
The old man spoke slowly and steadily, but what he said was earth-shattering.
Qi Huan was also a little surprised. He had originally prepared to give these dishes as a gift to the Po family, but he didn't expect that the old man had no intention of seeking fame at all and publicly admitted that these dishes were developed and researched by him.
"You're not saying," Huai Tong's face twitched, and he said sharply, "the dishes he made in the live broadcast room are so good that even a five-star chef can't make them, right?"
"I don't know about others," the old man said calmly, "I can't do it anyway."
As soon as Po Zhan said this, the long table fell silent, and the audience at the other end of the live broadcast room was also in an uproar. He was not even an adult yet, but his skills surpassed those of the Five Knife Star Chefs. Isn't this simply a genius?
The old man is willing to use his own reputation to pave the way for the younger generations. This kind of hard work and magnanimity make him worthy of being the helmsman of the number one family of star chefs.
Jiufang Yu nodded slightly behind the monitor, and he said that the Po family has a good family tradition. The head of a noble family loves talents, has a magnanimous attitude towards others, and cherishes his own character, which are the real foundation for the family to remain undefeated for a long time.
"So he is a genius?" a reporter asked excitedly.
"I prefer to call him a genius." The old man looked at Qi Huan who was busy at the stove, and did not hide the admiration in his eyes. "In your eyes, he seems to have suddenly appeared and became famous overnight, but who knows how many days and nights he has practiced to achieve his superb knife skills, and how many times he has cut his hands? Have you noticed how thick the calluses on his hands are?
Successfully researching a new dish is ten times or even a hundred times more difficult than learning from a recipe. For example, the soup he is cooking now is made from the inner soup of the Qiankun Wanwu Egg. We only know that the taste is delicious, but how were the fifty or so ingredients selected? How many times did he fail in his previous attempts? The hardships involved are beyond the imagination of outsiders, but the word "genius" should not be used to erase his seriousness and hard work over such a long period of time. "
When everyone heard this, they were speechless for a moment.
Yang Yuan and Huai Tong wanted to speak again, but Bu Fan crushed the teacup in his hand and looked at them coldly, "I've tolerated you for a long time, have you had enough? From the beginning of the banquet until now, you have been entangled. Are you here to enjoy the banquet or to cause trouble? If you don't want to eat, get out!"
He threw the fragments in his hand under the table, "I warn you, if you continue to cause trouble and hinder the chef's cooking, delaying my banquet, I will definitely put you on the Black Diamond List and hunt you down to the ends of the earth."
The nine-tailed white fox also spread out all nine tails, its eyes glowed red, releasing a fierce murderous aura.
"Count me in too." The vine ball at Lin Jian's hand suddenly stretched out, and the vine branches with sharp thorns swung around the necks of the two men as if locking onto a target. "If you dare to make a sound again, the man-eating vines will devour you!"
Looking at the sharp white teeth exposed among the vines, Yang Yuan and Huai Tong were aware that the two were definitely not joking. They were like two pheasants with their necks pinched. Their faces turned red, but they really didn't dare to say another word.
The troublemakers stopped stirring up trouble and the banquet suddenly became quiet. Various dishes such as Wensi tofu, honey-brewed mantis shrimps, Wanfu meat, and gourd chicken were served one by one, and everyone enjoyed the meal very much.
Qiankun Wanwu Egg and Honey-brewed Mantis Cicada were not on the original menu of the Qingkong Banquet. They were later voted by the audience in the live broadcast room as the first and second most popular dishes of the past.
When it is served, everyone tastes this ultimate delicacy with more care.
There are hundreds of kinds of meat animals in the mountains, thousands of kinds of fresh food in the sea, and all the ingredients in the world are of various natures and have their own flavors. These more than fifty flavors come together, rich and harmonious, with the charm of mountain breeze and sea. That wonderful taste that is like a stunning glimpse still makes people linger in their dreams many years later.
Only Qi Shan had no appetite for his food. He clenched his fists, feeling aggrieved, so aggrieved that he had to find a way to make these people pay.
