It’s not easy to be an interstellar chef

Chapter 10

"I also know how to make condiments," Su Chaoqi changed the topic, "The principles are recorded in ancient books, and it is not difficult to make them."

As the old saying goes, seven things are needed to open a door: firewood, rice, oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar, tea. Firewood is not needed, and tea is not very useful in cooking. But among the remaining few things, if any one of them is missing, it will be difficult to prepare a table of dishes.

So leaving aside other condiments, at least she must have oil, salt, sauce, and vinegar.

It's just that making soy sauce and vinegar requires special equipment. She doesn't have much money on hand anymore, so she is not in a hurry. After all, oil is actually quite easy to get. Although animal oil is not as good as vegetable oil, it is easier to extract than vegetable oil. For salt, you can buy sodium chloride solution directly from the pharmacy. You can't make very delicious dishes just by relying on oil and salt, but it is much better than drinking nutritional supplements now.

Song Yue asked: "Since it can be done, why not do it?"

Su Chaoqi said honestly: "Because I don't have enough money, and I'm afraid it will be too conspicuous."

Song Yue was puzzled: "Eye-catching?"

Lin Xiaochen understood: "The price of condiments is so expensive, it is almost a monopoly. If the school girl really makes it, it will cut off people and make money, and directly compete with those monopoly companies."

Su Chaoqi nodded: "Yes, but it's just a small fight in school, so it doesn't attract anyone's attention."

Lin Xiaochen and Su Chaoqi looked at each other for a few times, and then laughed at each other.

Lin Xiaochen asked: "If the school girl says she wants to cooperate with me, will it still count?"

"Of course it's for the count." Su Chaoqi nodded, "It's just that this is not a good place to talk. Let's talk about it when we get back."

Su Chaoliu interrupted at this moment: "The fish is steamed."

So a few people picked up their chopsticks and stared eagerly at the grass carp coming out of the pot.

As soon as the fish came out of the pan, three pairs of chopsticks landed so accurately that they almost fought on the plate.

"Senior sister, you just ate a whole piece, are you still eating it now?" Su Chaoliu has been practicing martial arts for many years, and her movements are natural and agile. In addition, she is better at eating than the other two, so of course she got the best piece of meat in her belly.

Rinse the fish in salt water to give it a slightly salty flavor so that it won't be too bland. Others are following suit.

After finishing the fish like a storm, Su Chaoliu did not let Su Chaoqi do anything again, but she started to clear the dishes. However, Song Yue and Lin Xiaochen were too short-mouthed to be idle, so they also helped.

However, at this moment, Zhu Wenting came over and said, "Senior sister, can you make another one? Shanshan said she wants to eat it."

Su Chaoqi found it funny. She didn't come when he was just invited, and now she has finished eating. Does she have to cook for others if she wants to eat?

"Senior, I won't do it," Su Chaoqi smiled faintly and refused directly, "I'm sorry."

Zhu Wenting was a little anxious: "But Shanshan said she wanted to eat."

Su Chaoqi spread his hands and said, "What does that have to do with me?"

Unexpectedly, Su Chaoqi's refusal was so straightforward. Zhu Wenting was speechless for a moment: "But, can't you help me? I don't think the steps are complicated."

"Should I do it if it's not complicated?" Su Chaoqi asked strangely, "My sister and I are just here to play today."

Treating the affiliated planet as a tourist attraction, Zhu Wenting didn't know what to say at the moment, so she looked at Lin Xiaochen for help.

Lin Xiaochen is versatile. Although she wants to have a relationship with Qu Shanshan, she also wants to cooperate with Su Chaoqi in the future. After some thought, she chose Su Chaoqi: "Everything has been packed away now, and it is inconvenient to take it out again. Next time If I have a chance to serve as a host, please show my cooking skills to the school girl."

Zhu Wenting said both good and bad things, but no one was willing to speak for her, and she was really not good at persuading others, so in the end she could only go back angrily.

Lin Xiaochen stood up: "We've almost finished playing today, it's time to go back."

Then she walked to Qu Shanshan and Zhu Wenting in person and talked to them. Qu Shanshan didn't want to obey her husband and leave now, but after Lin Xiaochen's reminder, she glanced at the sky and nodded reluctantly.

Qu Shanshan may not want to stay and continue playing, but she simply doesn't want to obey Lin Xiaochen's wishes.

The six people all walked back silently.

When they were approaching the port, Song Yue and Su Chaoliu looked up at the same place: "There is movement over there."

Lin Xiaochen didn't care: "When there is movement, there is movement. Isn't it normal for there to be movement on the attached planet?"

"No," Su Chao Liu Que strode over, "There's something wrong with the movement."

Su Chaoliu and Su Chaoqi had the same mind. As soon as she said something was wrong, Su Chaoqi grabbed Lin Xiaochen and prevented her from going forward.

Zhu Wenting and Qu Shanshan also stopped.

Song Yue caught up with Su Chaoliu: "My junior schoolmate and I will go take a look."

At this time, regardless of any pretentious quarrel, Zhu Wenting and Qu Shanshan came closer, with nervous expressions on their faces: "What happened? Isn't it an attack by a high-level alien beast?"

Su Chaoqi looked calm and shook his head: "No, the movement of the alien beasts will not be so small."

A first-level alien beast, said to be an alien beast, is actually similar to the small animals that Su Chaoqi saw in his previous life, which were not particularly harmful. A non-venomous snake is already considered to be the top creature of the food web of a first-level alien beast, let alone one. A supernatural warrior, even an ordinary person with a little training can subdue a first-level alien beast.

Of course, people who are truly powerless are not included.

"Book of Changes" once said: The wind follows the dragon, the tiger follows the wind, and the appearance of high-level exotic beasts is often accompanied by some strange situations, but so far they have not seen anything strange.Su Chaoliu and Song Yue felt something was wrong because the noise was caused by someone.
Soon Su Chaoliu turned back and said to them: "It's the team led by Senior Yan, and there's some trouble."

Su Chaoqi was stunned: "Senior Yan, Yan Hanguang?"

Su Chao Liu nodded: "That's him."

"It turns out to be Senior Yan," Qu Shanshan said with great joy before others could react, "It turns out that we can meet him here. Let me say hello to him."

Then she hurried away.

Zhu Wenting hurriedly followed.

Lin Xiaochen sneered: "I have always heard that the Qu family wants to marry the Yan family. Now it seems that it is not groundless."

The two sisters didn't want to say this. They didn't want to do this kind of random guessing about the rights and wrongs of Taoists behind their backs. Su Chaoqi asked: "Did something happen?"

Su Chaoliu's face was heavy: "Someone is suffering from power exhaustion syndrome."

As soon as this term comes out, it makes people frown.

Power exhaustion disease, as the name suggests, means that the power in the body is exhausted and can no longer be used. The troublesome thing about this disease is that the treatment cabin cannot treat it at all, and it can only be cured by eating alien animals.

If superpowers are regarded as nutrients like proteins and vitamins, we can understand superpower exhaustion syndrome.

"How did you get this?" Lin Xiaochen suddenly screamed, "Who got this disease?"

Su Chaoliu replied: "He is a senior in the second grade."

Should they take a dip in this muddy water or not?After thinking for a moment, Su Chaoqi said, "Let's go over and take a look."

The other two had no objections.

They walked to an open space that had been cleared and saw a man sitting under a big tree with an extremely ugly face, while Yan Hanguang stood not far away with an ugly face talking to others using his optical brain.

Qu Shanshan stood aside with an aggrieved look on her face. It seemed that the greeting did not go well.

Song Yue stood together and talked with some other people, including Datian who had challenged Su Chaoliu once.
Lin Xiaochen looked around the group of people and understood: "They are all members of the Individual Soldier Department Student Union."

It seemed to be a team building event for the Individual Soldiers Student Union, but something unexpected happened.

Yan Hanguang hung up the phone with a gloomy expression. Seeing that he had stopped talking, the student union cadre who was talking to Song Yue, Da Tian, ​​immediately asked: "President, what do you say?"

"It will take at least tomorrow for the chefs to prepare the dishes and bring them over," Yan Hanguang gritted his teeth, "and one or two of them are shirking it, saying it's not convenient to come."

Power exhaustion syndrome is extremely dangerous for people with powers. For power warriors, being unable to use their powers is a very heavy blow.

The chefs in the interstellar era have become accustomed to being praised by the stars. They are asked to rush over to serve others without even thinking about what is terrible about offending Yan Hanguang. The individual soldiers are also begging for them.

This muddy water is worth a trip.

"Senior, you don't need a chef to come over," Su Chaoliu said suddenly, "We can help."

Yan Hanguang looked over in surprise: "What did you say?"

Su Chaoliu looked around: "Senior, we also captured a lot of strange beasts this time. Can we use them?"

Yan Hanguang said in a deep voice: "These strange beasts were originally captured for Xiao Dong, but are you really sure that you can make dishes that Xiao Dong can eat?"

Su Chaoliu's eyes were fixed on a pheasant and he nodded without hesitation: "Okay."

Yan Hanguang agreed without any further hesitation: "Okay, then you guys give it a try."

Datian frowned and said in disapproval: "Brother Yan, how can we let them come? What if all the strange beasts we caught are destroyed?"

Yan Hanguang said succinctly: "I can still afford to take the risk of a few first- and second-level exotic beasts, and I will continue to contact people and be prepared."

Seeing that Yan Hanguang had an arrangement, Da Tian didn't say anything more. He just looked at Xiao Dong worriedly and sighed heavily.

Lin Xiaochen came over and said, "How did he get power exhaustion syndrome? I remember that the academy will give registered power users some monthly subsidies, and he should also be able to take on some tasks."

Da Tian shook his head: "He gave all those things to his family... Something happened to his family before, and it was a bit difficult, but he never said it, and none of us knew about it. As a result, his powers have been overused recently, and he has suffered from power exhaustion syndrome. , if the president hadn’t just noticed that something was not right about Xiao Dong and forced him to find out, we would still have been kept in the dark, so we hurriedly tried to take him back, but his illness broke out at this time.”

Lin Xiaochen was puzzled: "Don't he know he is sick?"

Da Tian sighed: "It's just a matter of luck. I want to go back this time and take the strange beast to find a classmate from the chef department to cook for him to replenish his powers."

Lin Xiaochen didn't know what to say about such behavior that harmed others and himself.

I can only say that I am lucky to have met them.
