Li Fu: “…”
That sounds quite like it.
They chatted for a while and soon stopped at the apron of Yishaka Restaurant.
Xia Chujian, Li Fu and Ping Qiong also wore those human face masks, and looked completely different from their own appearance.
The three men changed into the uniform of Quan's security, got off the aircraft with submachine guns on their backs, met up with other security personnel, and began to guard outside.
Inside the restaurant, the core members of Quan’s security are in charge.
Xia Chujian and Ping Qiong took a look around and didn't find anything suspicious, so they sat side by side on the branches of a big tree in the courtyard outside the Yisaka Restaurant and looked into the restaurant through binoculars.
Xia Chujian said, "Are the diners inside all disguised as Quan's security personnel?"
Ping Qiong was also looking into the restaurant through a telescope. Upon hearing this, he said, "It must be him. I saw the money that cost him his life, and he's actually eating delicious food again!"
Xia Chujian silently took out a tube of low-level nutrient solution from his arms and drank it all in one breath with the delicious food he saw through the telescope.
They took strict precautions during this meal and nothing went wrong.
Quan Caiwei also enjoyed the meal very much.
It's not like she hadn't eaten the unicorn beef, a specialty of Guiyuan Star, before, but this time the taste was particularly different because it was relatively fresh, while the ones she had eaten before were all frozen for a long time and then thawed.
There's no way around it, this unicorn beef is a specialty of Guiyuan Star.
If they want to be transported to Zangge Star where the Quan family is located, or Beichen Star where the imperial capital is located, they need to be frozen first, otherwise they will deteriorate.
Of course, it can also be transported by interstellar spacecraft that can jump through space, but in that case, the price of unicorn beef will be so high that only a few nobles can afford it. It is obviously not cost-effective, so no one does that.
Quan Caiwei praised it highly and said, "The freshness of the ingredients is indeed very important. I should come to Guiyuan Star every year to eat unicorn beef."
Fan Chengcai acted nonchalant and said, "Actually, unicorn beef isn't the most delicious specialty of our Guiyuan Star."
"Oh? I don't believe there is anything more delicious and fragrant than unicorn beef." Quan Caiwei asked curiously.
Fan Chengcai said, "Have you heard of black truffle wild rhinoceros?"
"...I've heard of it, but I've never eaten it." Quan Caiwei shrugged. "I heard it's very difficult to catch?"
"Real black truffle and wild rhino pork, that's a real delicacy!" Fan Chengcai beamed. "Caiwei, you really should come again next year. I'll treat you and take you to Mulan City for some delicious food! It's closest to the Exotic Beast Forest."
"Forest of Strange Beasts?" Quan Caiwei's eyes flickered. "I've heard a lot of people talk about it. Is it really that dangerous?"
"It's extremely dangerous. It's fair to say that out of the 100,000 bounty hunters who go to the Exotic Beast Forest every year, fewer than 10,000 return alive," Fan Chengcai sighed. "For every portion of black truffle and wild rhino pork, the lives of countless bounty hunters are at stake."
Quan Caiwei was slightly startled, then shook her head and said, "In that case, let's not eat it. It took so many people their lives to catch it, so I won't eat it no matter how delicious it is."
Fan Chengcai: “…”
He knew he had used too much force, so he coughed softly and looked at his elder brother Fan Chengqi.
Fan Chengqi smiled and changed the subject, saying, "Chengcai just likes to exaggerate. Actually, it's not that difficult to catch black truffle wild rhinoceros. There's a restaurant in Mulan City that specializes in this dish. If you have time, go check it out. If you don't have time, forget it. Good food is all about fate."
Quan Caiwei nodded in agreement and said, "Young Master Fan is right. Good food really is about fate."
She brought the topic back to the topic: "But since the Beast Forest is so dangerous, shouldn't we propose to the cabinet to close it down and stop bounty hunters from making unnecessary sacrifices?"
Fan Chengcai showed a look of disapproval and said sternly, "Caiwei, I know you mean well, but for tens of thousands of bounty hunters, you're destroying their livelihood."
Quan Caiwei was puzzled: "Why did I cut off their chance of survival? Isn't it better to let them live?"
Fan Chengcai said seriously, "Caiwei, you really don't understand the lives of ordinary people at the bottom of society. Although going to the Monster Forest is dangerous, it is also their only chance to make a lot of money."
"To make money, how can there be no risk?"
"They have families to support and want to climb up the social ladder through their own efforts. If you don't let them into the Forest of Exotic Beasts, you're not only cutting off their livelihood, but also their path to advancement. Don't you think that's worth the loss?"
Quan Caiwei smiled slightly and said, "I was inconsiderate. Second Young Master Fan is right. Come, I'll toast you a glass."
Fan Chengcai naturally took the wine glass from her hand and said, "You drink the juice, and I'll drink the wine."
As he spoke, he poured Quan Caiwei a glass of green fruit juice and himself a glass of red wine.
The two clinked their glasses together: "Cheers to the delicious food."
The people at the table applauded loudly and the atmosphere was very lively.
Xia Chujian watched all this through a telescope and felt increasingly uneasy.
That Fan Chengcai, who acted like a decent person, actually seemed to have impressed the noble lady Tulip.
Ping Qiong also saw everything.
She comforted Xia Chujian: "Don't be discouraged. Pretending is always fake. I don't believe someone like Fan Chengcai can keep pretending forever."
"...What if he can fill it for six days?" Xia Chujian asked.
Ping Qiong: “…”
She didn't know how to answer, and she knew in her heart that judging from the current situation, there was a very high possibility that Fan Chengcai would fill the bag for six days.
