“You haven’t forgotten our bet, have you?”
On a pier beside Jumping Fish Lake, Jiang Qianyi, who was lined up early, looked at the man in front of her whose face didn’t look so good, and waggled her mobile phone with a grin.
The screen of the phone displayed an article written by Jiang Qianyi today, on Qin Lang.
After fermenting for a morning, this article had accumulated tens of thousands of reposts and nearly a hundred thousand likes, along with thousands of comments.
Such heat was considered pretty high for self-media.
“Abet is a bet.” Cheng Yuansen grumbled, “You were impressive this time, but next time I’ll find news more explosive than yours.”
“Before that, you should first honour your bet.” Jiang Qianyi stretched lazily, “Remember to invite me to dinner after the Leaping Fish Banquet.”
After sharing the remaining Blue Spear with the two little ones, Qin Lang quickly opened the third lunch box.
Unlike the previous two dishes, the lunch box used for the Ocean Emblem is of higher grade and extremely well sealed.
The moment the lunch box was opened, the restrained savoury smell suddenly erupted from the box, rushing toward Qin Lang like a gale.
That unrestrained savoury smell was interwoven with different ingredients. Carrying an extremely enticing intesity, it made Qin Lang, who hadn’t had enough, couldn’t help but swallow his saliva.
Then, he saw the full view of the dish called the Ocean Emblem.
It was a pancake, about the size of a palm, that was fried crispy and golden brown on both sides, about two palms thick.
What was most striking was the strange and mysterious patterns on both sides of the pancake, which were of different colours, like a mysterious emblem.
These patterns, like different parts of concentric circles, twisted on the surface of the pancake, greatly enhancing the charm of the golden brown pancake.
As Qin Lang observed this dish more carefully, the surprise on his face became increasingly intense.
These differently coloured patterns were not painted on, they were formed by the colours of different ingredients mixed into the pancake.
The reason they all resembled arcs of concentric circles was that the seemingly pancake-like dish was not fried as Qin Lang knew it to be.
It was rolled up with very thin “Noodle skins” covering various seafood “Ingredients”.
With an attitude of exploration, Qin Lang picked up the Ocean Emblem and took a bite.
“Crunch?? ”
The crunchy skin sound rang out, but Qin Lang felt as if he had bitten into a mouthful of meat.
Despite seemingly a pancake, the actual flour content of it was far less than Qin Lang had imagined; what filled and supported the pancake were various kinds of seafood cut into thin slices and rolled up.
Sea cucumber, lobster meat, abalone meat…
Qin Lang tried to discern while chewing but he couldn’t fully make out all the ingredients. However, he was certain that the types of seafood used in there were definitely more than ten.
What was even more amazing was that the tastes of all these different seafood were completely intertwined, surprisingly without any clash, but instead giving a sense of perfect unity.
“Even though I haven’t tasted your dishes, I heard that you made a dish called gravy seafood, which also uses a lot of seafood.”
Luo Xian’s voice came, bringing Qin Lang back to reality.
Looking at Qin Lang, Luo Xian gave a small smile, “In this regard, it’s quite similar to the Ocean Emblem.”
“But you do it better than me.” Qin Lang sincerely replied.
He only processed these seafood and immersed them in the same sauce, whereas Luo Xian truly integrated various types of seafood in the process of cooking.
On this point, he was inferior to Luo Xian.
“Ha ha ha, after all, I have more cooking experience than you. If we were the same age, you would be more impressive.” Luo Xian seemed very happy hearing Qin Lang’s words.
An idea struck Qin Lang, “Mr. Luo Xian, I have a question.”
“Go ahead.”
“The names of the three dishes you presented… Why do they sound so…” Qin Lang hesitated for a moment, but still expressed his feelings, “juvenile?”
“Ahaha…” The corners of Luo Xian’s mouth twitched imperceptibly, “Perhaps it’s because I have a heart that is younger than my appearance?”
Seeing Qin Lang seemingly intending to continue on this topic, Luo Xian quickly interjected, “Alright, let’s get back to discussing seafood.”
After tasting Luo Xian’s three dishes, Qin Lang and the other Spirit Chefs exchanged views at the stall for a while before quickly saying their goodbyes.
According to his previous plan, for the remaining two days of the exchange time, he intended to taste the dishes of the other Spirit Chefs and proactively engage in discussions with them.
They might have received fewer votes than him, but that didn’t mean that their dishes and cooking philosophies weren’t worth learning from.
Qiu Longfei, who currently ranked second in the All-age Group; Shen Qian, who currently ranked second in the Youth Group; Bai Hongrui, who currently ranked third…
The cooking styles of these Spirit Chefs were varied and each had their own merits.
The exchange process with them was equally pleasant.
So pleasant that when the sound of the electric bell rang again signaling the end of the exchange stage and the start of the fifth session of operations in the afternoon, Qin Lang was left longing for more.
“Are you two full?”
Standing at his stall, Qin Lang turned to look at Dan Bao and Spicy, whose faces radiated satisfaction.
“Gurulu!”
“Chaka!”
Both of them nodded in agreement.
During Qin Lang’s exchanges with the other Spirit Chefs just now, he had been in charge of the discussions, while Dan Bao and Spicy had been responsible for eating.
The variety of delicacies left the two little guys thoroughly satisfied.
“Now that you’re full, it’s time to work hard this afternoon.” Qin Lang expertly began to prepare the ingredients for the afternoon. “There will be more customers in the afternoon and at night, and I’ve already seen an article discussing Crab Vinegar online.”
“I suspect more customers will be coming to our stall to taste it.”
“Gurulu-”
“Chaka-”
The two of them shook their heads helplessly.
More customers meant more work, a bittersweet problem indeed.
The fifth round… the sixth round… the seventh round… the eighth round…
At last, the ninth round!
Two days passed in a whirlwind of busyness.
In the subsequent time, Qin Lang made no more adjustments to his Crab Roe Fried Rice and Gravy Seafood.
With his Crab Roe Fried Rice, which customers could customize by adding their own Crab Vinegar, and the unimaginably fresh Gravy Seafood that customers could take home to enjoy with their families, Qin Lang won the favor and abundant praises of numerous food guests.
By the end of the three-day Leaping Fish Banquet, he had become well-known throughout Yue Hu City, and even the surrounding city area was no longer unfamiliar with his name.
The only one who could overshadow him was Luo Xian.
This foreigner, said to come from the Lotlan Region, made an astonishing appearance at the Leaping Fish Banquet and likewise earned the support of many food guests.
Numerous food guests cast their decisive vote for the two of them, pushing their vote totals to a level that left the other Spirit Chefs far behind.
As the familiar sound of the electric bell echoed across the entire deck, the food guests left the Yueyu Cruise Ship with reluctance.
The final session of the Leaping Fish Banquet ended.
