It’s not easy to be an interstellar chef

When the starship landed on the asteroid where the experimental greenhouse was located, what Su Chaoqi saw was a very simply built starport.

To say it is simple is an understatement. In fact, there is only a large open space for the starship to land, and a row of houses built as the main control room. There is not even a waiting area.

Why does a private starport need to be so comprehensive? Just use it as it is.

The starship is still some distance away from the experimental greenhouse, so they have to transfer to a spacecraft.

The second-level superpower warrior bodyguard was responsible for driving, and the other two bodyguards drove a flying vehicle in front and behind, protecting the flying vehicle Professor Wen was sitting in the middle.

That's very cautious.

This made Su Chaoqi even more certain that Professor Wen must be doing some research that was not tolerated by the Canglang Club.

The aircraft flew for half an hour, and then they saw an arc-shaped light shield covering the ground. They stopped the aircraft in front of the light shield, and after the left assistant sitting in the co-pilot operated the light computer, they successfully entered the light shield.

The ground covered by the light shield was divided into many areas, and these areas were covered by other light shields with a height of only two meters. If a tall man walked in, he would have to lower his head subconsciously.

"The first experimental field, the second experimental field..." Su Chaoqi pointed at the names displayed on the light shield and read, "What a concise and clear naming."

"We haven't planted the plants yet," Professor Wen said, "so let's leave it like this for now."

After all, the experimental greenhouse has not been completed yet, so it is difficult to transplant the plants. The plants can only be transplanted after the temporary laboratories, dormitories and other facilities here are built.

However, the function of these small light shields can be demonstrated to Su Chaoqi.

After Professor Wen's optical computer was linked to the light shield, she clicked on the optical computer, and saw rain falling in the light shield. Professor Wen could also control the amount of rain and how long it lasted by sliding her fingers.

Then, Professor Wen pointed his finger again, and the heavy rain suddenly turned into a clear sky, and the ultraviolet lamp simulated the sun and worked diligently.

Later, there will be extreme weather such as snow, hail, strong winds, etc., and the light mask can simulate them.

"Each light shield is a small climate simulator," Su Chaoqi nodded with admiration, "It's really useful."

When she was doing experiments during the summer vacation, there were no such advanced equipment and everything was done manually.

The people of Yanhuang Star are no strangers to this kind of climate simulator, because there is one looming over their heads.

It’s just that they don’t generally use such small ones in their daily lives, they are only needed for experiments.

Climate simulators are the most basic equipment, and other equipment is gradually being introduced, such as various optical instruments, data analysis instruments in the laboratory, as well as daily electrical appliances for researchers.

"Shall we reserve a room for you?" Professor Wen asked, pointing to the dormitory building. "You can stay here when you come."

"Stay," Su Chaoqi said without thinking, "I'll come over when I'm on vacation."

Anyway, Su Chaoliu will definitely go for an internship during the holidays, and she has nowhere else to go... No, it’s not that there is no other place to go, it’s just that there is no need to go.

This place is no different to her than any other place she could go on vacation, it just depends on her needs.

"You are so diligent," Professor Wen praised her attitude, but still had to remind her, "But even if you come here during the holidays, you may not be able to participate in the experiment."

After all, she doesn't teach undergraduates, which means that the researchers here are at least graduate students or above. Su Chaoqi may not have enough professional level and can only watch.

"It doesn't matter," Su Chaoqi didn't care. "At least I can know the progress of the experiment in real time. If you need data from the Blue Star period, I can also easily retrieve the translation here."

If that doesn't work, she will still be able to serve tea and water, or give massage or acupuncture?
Su Chaoqi's eyes swept across Professor Wen's shoulders and neck.

It is impossible for people who have been doing experiments for a long time to have no problems at all, but they are not obvious at ordinary times. When they feel pain, lying in the treatment cabin is only a temporary solution and does not address the root cause.

Su Chaoqi really wanted to give Professor Wen a massage, but he didn't make such a suggestion in the end.

They looked at every place in the experimental greenhouse and introduced the function of each place to Su Chaoqi to avoid her being confused about something when she came next time.

"Miss Su, is there anything you need to add?" Assistant Zuo asked, "If you need anything, please let me know at any time."

Su Chaoqi really did: "Please build a wall to separate the inside and outside of my room, and turn the outside room into a kitchen."

She can't help cooking during the holidays. Cooking is not only a skill for her, but also a means of socializing. She is an outsider in the experimental greenhouse. Even if she has the identity of a "collaborator", the unfamiliarity is objective. She needs to break the social distance through cooking.

Assistant Zuo agreed quickly: "No problem, do you have any other needs?"

"Not yet," Su Chaoqi shook his head, "I'll talk about it when I think of it."

In fact, she would have preferred a separate room for the kitchen, but that request was too arrogant, so she didn't mention it.

"The experiment can start in about half a month," Professor Wen and Su Chaoqi walked back side by side. Professor Wen asked, "Will you come over in half a month?"

Su Chaoqi thought for a moment and calculated the time: "Come here, I am also a little worried about the transplanted plants."

Professor Wen didn't really care whether she could come over or not. Su Chaoqi came here just to take a look and give some advice at most.

After taking a look around, Su Chaoqi already had a rough estimate in his mind, so they could go back.

After a round trip, it was already past nine o'clock in the evening when we returned to Yanhuang Star.

Professor Wen asked, "Do you need Assistant Zuo to take you back?" "No need," Su Chaoqi shook his head, "I drove the aircraft here."

Professor Wen did not force it: "Okay, be careful on the road."

After Su Chaoqi said goodbye to Professor Wen, he boarded her aircraft.

To be honest, she is a little hungry now.

But I don't have anything to eat with me now.

If she were on Blue Star, she could find a store selling midnight snacks, or at worst buy a pack of instant noodles to fill her stomach.

But this is Interstellar.

Su Chaoqi thought about it, opened the map and took a look, and found that the nearest place was the community canteen.

The supernatural training base and her studio are both farther away.

So she started the aircraft and drove towards the community cafeteria.

She timed it just right, it was the time for high school students to finish their evening self-study. It was nearly eleven o'clock, and there were still customers in the cafeteria. They were all high school students in school uniforms, eating their meals.

Seventeen or eighteen years old is the hungriest age. Studying every day consumes a lot of energy, not to mention that they also have to participate in sports.

Su Chaoqi looked no different from these high school students. After all, she was only 20 years old. So when she first stepped into the cafeteria, someone greeted her in a familiar manner: "What do you want to eat, classmate?"

Su Chaoqi smiled and said, "Is there anything else to eat?"

The voice sounded familiar, and the people in the kitchen couldn't help but look up: "Miss Chaoqi? Why are you here?"

Su Chaoqi found a seat and sat down casually: "I was out doing business today, I was hungry, and I just happened to pass by, so I came here to eat something."

Wang Zhixin was on the night shift today, so he came out of the kitchen and talked to Su Chaoqi: "Boss Xiao Qiao has returned to the dormitory. Do you want me to call him over?"

"No need," Su Chaoqi shook his head, "I'll just eat something and leave."

They were quite familiar with Su Chaoqi's requirements. They knew that even if she was hungry late at night, she would not eat too much or eat anything too heavy.

"We're almost out of rice," Wang Zhixin thought for a moment, "Shall I make you a bowl of noodles?"

In fact, there was still rice, but Wang Zhixin knew that this group of high school students would definitely want more rice. After all, the rice here is unlimited, which means that students can eat as much as they want. Wang Zhixin still wanted to leave the rice for them.

Of course, he also knew that Su Chaoqi probably wouldn't want to eat rice.

"Thank you for the trouble," Su Chaoqi nodded, "Don't put too much powder."

Wang Zhixin expressed his understanding, then turned back to the kitchen and quickly lit the fire and started cooking.

Within ten minutes, Wang Zhixin brought out a bowl of fragrant noodle soup and placed it on Su Chaoqi's table.

Although he added less flour as Su Chaoqi requested, Wang Zhixin added a lot of other side dishes and even put a poached egg on the surface.

Su Chaoqi picked up the chopsticks, scooped up some noodles and started eating.

"How was it?" Wang Zhixin waited anxiously for Su Chaoqi's evaluation. "Do you think I did a good job?"

Actually... Su Chaoqi thinks it's just average. If he were to find faults, he could find a lot.

For example, the vegetables were a little overcooked, the poached eggs were not runny, and the noodles could have been cooked a little longer.

"It's delicious," she still gave a positive review. After all, this level is good enough in Interstellar. "Well done."

"Don't lie to me," Wang Zhixin shook his head and smiled, "Is there anything you can't fault with?"

"It's just that everyone has different tastes," Su Chaoqi said with a smile, "It's fine as long as you think it's good."

After eating a few mouthfuls, Su Chaoqi finally had the energy to ask other questions, "Are there more customers now?"

Wang Zhixin replied: "Yes, although the increase is not stable, it does increase every day, especially on weekends, when families often come to eat together."

Su Chaoqi asked: "Then... who is willing to try cooking?"

When this question came up, Wang Zhixin sighed: "Almost no one, except the children, finds it difficult and troublesome."

Children are at a stage where they have a strong interest in everything, but you can't expect their interest to last.

"Don't worry," Su Chaoqi said with a faint smile, "Take your time."

What she said was actually meaningless nonsense. This kind of comfort was pale and had no effect. It could only be regarded as polite words. Wang Zhixin knew this, so he did not take Su Chaoqi's words too seriously.

After Su Chaoqi finished eating the noodles, he wanted to pay the bill but was rejected by Wang Zhixin: "How can I take your money? Xiao Qiao will blame you if she finds out. You can go back after you finish eating."

Su Chaoqi didn't force it after hearing this, so he nodded and left. (End of this chapter)
