Chapter 396 There is also spring for handicapped gangsters
Can medicated food completely replace medicine?
Pierce came prepared, and as soon as he asked the question, Professor Atlee fell into deep thought.
After a long moment, Professor Atlee slowly uttered two words:
“It’s difficult.”
Let’s not talk about those rare A-level and S-level medicinal foods, let’s just talk about ordinary ancient dishes. The taste of ancient dishes made by different chefs is different.
This type of food is not like medicine that can be taken at any time. Over time, the food is prone to quality changes. It is not easy to completely replace the nutrient solution.
Speaking of medicinal food, it is not an ordinary ancient dish. Through food purification, the energy of medicinal food can reach a level that cannot be surpassed by medicine, and it is also delicious.
However, medicinal food is too rare. It can surpass medicine and stand at the top, becoming the coveted existence of everyone, but it cannot be popularized.
From a fair and impartial perspective, Professor Atlee compared ancient dishes, medicinal foods and medicines.
At least in this era, he does not think that medicinal food can replace medicine, and even if it can, it will take hundreds of years.
The rise of the ancient cuisine craze and the rarity of medicinal food have all been discovered in the past six months. It is normal for the people of the empire to be enthusiastic, but as time goes by, medicinal food will gradually become something they look up to.
No matter how good the medicinal food is, they can only accept the medicines that have already been widely used.
Pierce stood in his seat and didn't sit down. Professor Atlee's answer was within his expectations. Seeing that the other students in the classroom were more or less lost in thought after listening, he smiled triumphantly.
This is the result he wants to see.
Shortly after the beginning of this semester, Pierce applied to leave school and follow a research team from the Mer Group to other galaxies to study a research project. It was not until he came back a few days ago that he heard that Ye Jiaojiao, a big figure, had joined the school. Then he received instructions from the Mer Group.
Ye Jiaojiao and the Mer Group have been fighting openly and secretly for so long, and both sides know that there is no possibility of peace talks. The Mer Group naturally wants to curb Ye Jiaojiao's arrogance, so Pierce asked this question today.
No matter how popular your ancient cuisine is, in an interstellar world where everyone takes nutrient solution, ancient cuisine is just a niche hobby. No matter how amazing your medicinal food is, it is still hard to find.
It is easy for ancient vegetables to suppress nutrient solution, but it is difficult to replace it.
After hundreds of years of conflict between the Empire, the Federation, and the Zerg, nutrient solution has long become a habit for interstellar people, especially border fighters.
On the battlefield, nutrient solution that is fast, convenient, and can restore and maintain energy to the greatest extent is an indispensable supply.
"The Empire's territory encompasses over a dozen star systems. Minor conflicts occur daily in places we can't see, especially along the borders. While ancient cuisine may be delicious, it can only be savored in leisure time. Once the bombardment resumes, Imperial soldiers won't have the time to light a fire and cook."
Yili controlled the rhythm, and Pierce spoke again at the right time, linking the importance of nutrient solution and energy potion to the imperial warriors.
As soon as he finished speaking, the students around him felt that it made more and more sense.
Traditional Chinese cuisine can be a hobby or a way to enjoy life, but nutrient solution is the choice of most people, especially those tenacious imperial warriors.
"What Senior Pierce said makes sense. Since the rise of ancient cuisine, many ancient cuisine restaurants have appeared on the capital planet, but the taste varies greatly. None of them are as delicious as what classmate Ye cooks in the live broadcast room, and the prices are still very expensive!"
"I've been to Chunfenglou three times since it opened. Every time, I had to queue from morning to afternoon for dinner. It was really torture."
"Speaking of medicinal food, if I remember correctly, even classmate Ye had to make a few S-grade medicinal food after hundreds of attempts, and they weren't sold publicly, right?"
"Even if it were sold publicly, we wouldn't be able to get it. The thing the Capital Planet lacks the most is rich and powerful people. Oh, it breaks my heart just thinking about it."
"In my opinion, the Mer Group releases hundreds or even thousands of genetic drugs every year, which is actually a considerable amount."
In the classroom, under Pierce's deliberate guidance, the students began to whisper to each other, and in everyone's minds, the balance gradually tilted towards the potion.
Having achieved his goal, Pierce held his head high, glanced towards Ye Jiaojiao, and asked abruptly:
"Student Ye, do you think I'm right?"
A swaggering smile was clearly visible on Pierce's face. At this moment, he was like a victorious general, and Ye Jiaojiao was a loser in his eyes.
He showed off his trophies in front of the loser, hoping to get his flattery, but unfortunately he met Ye Jiaojiao.
"You're not right."
With her right hand on the research table, Ye Jiaojiao lowered her eyes and tapped the table twice rhythmically.
Ye Jiaojiao's attitude made Pierce feel that he had never been regarded as an opponent by her. He became angry and his voice suddenly rose.
"What's wrong??? Can Mr. Ye explain it clearly???"
Ye Jiaojiao really didn't regard Pierce as an opponent. She ignored Pierce, then slowly stood up and looked at Professor Atley on the podium.
"Professor, you said that medicinal food is unlikely to replace medicine, while Pierce said that traditional Chinese food is unlikely to replace nutrient solution. I think these two statements are wrong."
On the podium, seeing Ye Jiaojiao's confident look, Atley became interested and said with a smile, "Could you please tell us in detail, Ms. Ye?"
"Let's talk about standard ancient dishes first. Based on what Pierce said and everyone's previous understanding, don't you all think that making ancient dishes is very difficult? And that the taste will vary depending on who makes them? And that they're also inconvenient to carry around?"
As Ye Jiaojiao spoke, her eyes swept across the classroom. All the people she looked at were students. She hoped that these people could answer her questions.
There happened to be a male classmate who loved food very much. He was the first to answer:
"Xiaomei Ye, I really like traditional Chinese cuisine and often watch your livestreams. At first, I tried to cook alongside you, but maybe I just don't have the talent. I spent half a day on it but still didn't get any good results. After a few times, I found that I was starting to develop a resistance to delicious food."
The first male student who spoke gave a positive answer and also mentioned a personal case related to him. After listening to it, Ye Jiaojiao thought for a few seconds and came up with an idea.
"Professor Atlee, can I give this student a practical exercise in class? It won't take long, only about five minutes."
Five minutes?
Is Student Ye going to help this male classmate cook a delicious dish within five minutes?
As soon as Ye Jiaojiao finished speaking, many people present became curious, including Atley. He also wanted to see how Ye Jiaojiao was going to slap Pierce in the face.
"no problem."
Atlee agreed.
Ye Jiaojiao left her seat and walked to the side of the male classmate. She took out a bucket of mixed noodles from the space button and handed it to him.
"Classmate, this is instant mixed noodles, a convenience food. I'll tell you to make it later so you can experience the difficulty yourself."
The eight major cuisines are treasures left over from history, and in addition to them, the wisdom of foodies is also left behind.
Who says there is no future for those with clumsy hands?
