Chapter 78 - 78: Qin Lang’s Dream Hen

Translator: 549690339

“It’s really delicious-”

At Qin Lang’s house, Qi Xiaoyu had just patted her tummy, a satisfied smile spreading across her face.

After having a bowl of Wen Si Tofu, she felt a sense of bliss.

“During the competition, because of the limited ingredients, the soup we made was not at its best.” Qin Lang took a sip of Wen Si Tofu with a smile, nodding with satisfaction, “This time, it’s better.”

When cooking at home, there were hardly any restrictions.

In celebration of their advancement in the elimination competition, Qin Lang had purposely added numerous superb ingredients to the soup.

While it wasn’t the most lavish, it was definitely more exquisite than the general chicken clear soup.

The primary attention in Wen Si Tofu is given to the texture of the tofu, whereas the deliciousness completely depends on the soup.

When the soup is well-cooked, naturally the taste of Wen Si Tofu leaps dramatically.

“All you know is eating.” Du Weiwei, sitting next to them, couldn’t help but smack Qi Xiaoyu’s belly, completely forgetting that she hadn’t objected to this at all when Qi Xiaoyu had made the suggestion.

The two girls playfully began to tussle while Zhao Chen, who was dining with them, silently put down his cutlery and looked at Dan Bao next to Qin Lang, then at his own Yangyang.

Both Food Spirits were born around the same time, but at this moment the stars surrounding Danbao shone much brighter than those around Yangyang.

This was primarily due to the two Starstones that Qin Lang had acquired.

Newbie Spirit Chefs usually couldn’t directly participate in the competition, let alone rank in it.

But Qin Lang, relying on his incredible culinary skills, made it happen.

It was like overtaking in a curve, drastically accelerating Danbao’s star growth.

This development made an urgency surge in Zhao Chen’s mind.

As the future’s mightiest training master, how could he allow his rival to leave him far behind?

It is time to start the Food Spirit Trial!

Qin Lang glanced at Zhao Chen who was periodically in deep thought and then nodding with conviction.

What kind of weird idea was this guy who had a second-kind syndrome brewing?

After a hearty meal, all three knew that Qin Lang needed to prepare for the upcoming ranking battle, so they bade their farewell and left.

Watching them leave, Qin Lang looked at the dimming sky and gently patted Danbin who had approached him, “Let’s go to bed early today. We are making a trip tomorrow.”

“Goo-glub?”

Dan Bao tilted his head, a puzzled expression visible on his face.

They’re about to enter the ranking fight, so what are they going out for?

“For the next dish, the quality of the chicken breast significantly impacts the final taste of the dish.” Qin Lang started seriously, “Even though it’s the same cut of chicken, the chicken breast, the quality varies between different breeds and individual chickens.”

“So, to defeat Tang Xie, I need to personally select the best chicken breast.”

The various breeds of chicken in the Food Spirit world are different from those on Earth. As for this aspect, Qin Lang was not familiar with it and his original identity was just a chef who hadn’t reached the phase where he had to consider the breed quality or ingredient quality.

So for Qin Lang, selecting the ingredients also posed a challenge.

Considering Tang Xie’s overflowing confidence, he was being very cautious about the next match.

“The careful chef.”

I see…

Dan Bao, as if struck by a sudden realization, nodded his head.

Yeah!

They can go out and play tomorrow!

“Sleep time!”

Qin Lang, holding Dan Bao with him, walked towards the washstand.

A moment later, the chef and his Spirit quickly fell asleep.

The next morning came through the blink of an eye.

Qin Lang woke up early and went to the Spirit Chef Association-certified food market.

This place had the richest variety of chicken breeds, which made it convenient for him to compare.

Under the disdainful gaze of the poultry section guide, Qin Lang began to gently feel the chicken breasts of different chickens, judging their differences in quality.

Chicken breasts that are too small won’t do, and those that are too big aren’t necessarily good either.

The elasticity is equally important and needs to be felt by lightly pressing with the fingertips.

Just before the poultry section guide was about to call the police with his mobile phone, Qin Lang finally lit up, his gaze fixed on one breed of chicken.

It was a breed called the “Wuhe Phoenix Tail Chicken”. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

The quality of the breast meat of this particular breed perfectly met Qin Lang’s needs.

Truly a dream chicken, just like so.

“Hello, I want five pounds of Wuhe Phoenix Tail Chicken’s breast…” Qin Lang spoke while looking up and meeting the gaze of the guide, slightly taken aback, “What’s the matter?”

“All, this…nothing.” The guide silently put down his mobile phone.

Turns out that the young man in front of him was selecting ingredients.

With his odd actions before, the guide thought…

“Wuhe Phoenix Tail Chicken is a top-grade chicken breed, and its original habitat is the Wuhe State, located in the southwest of Tianhua State,” Seeing Qin Lang’s lack of understanding about the breeds of the ingredients, the guide took the initiative to introduce them.

“Wuhe State has a developed water system, Wuhe Phoenix Tail Chickens are free-range near the riversides. Their dietary structure and level of activity are not comparable to ordinary chicken breeds, they can even fly over rivers in short distances.”

So, these are chickens that can fly across rivers.

Qin Lang nodded thoughtfully.

No wonder the breast meat of this chicken breed is completely different from other breeds.

“Old Chen, are you introducing your pet chicken again?”

Just as the guide was about to continue his introduction, a familiar voice came from Qin Lang’s side.

“Fu Guan, aren’t you supposed to be looking after your beef section?” Chen, the guide, couldn’t help but roll his eyes.

“I saw a familiar face, so I came to say hello!” Fu Guan grinned and slapped Qin Lang’s shoulder, “Congrats, brother Qin Lang. You got through the elimination round! 1 watched your competition live stream all the way through!”

“Thank you, Brother Fu.” Qin Lang smiled.

Ever since he was tested as a Food Recommender at Zhen Niu Pavilion last time, he had become more familiar with this beef section guide.

Getting through the elimination?

Chen, the guide who was nearby, heard their conversation and began looking at Qin Lang more carefully.

He hadn’t noticed before, but now that he saw the young man in front of him was indeed one of the four participants who had advanced from the city-level cooking competition’s elimination round.

If he remembered correctly, it should’ve been the third round.

That’s right!

The guide surnamed Chen suddenly remembered, the young man’s next competition item was fixed ingredients.

And chicken breast is the fixed ingredient.

He’s quite a big customer!

It’s not like Qin Lang would necessarily buy a lot of chicken breasts.

However, the city-level cooking competition had a very high attention level. If Qin Lang could make a good dish using chicken breasts, then the number of customers buying chicken breasts would skyrocket in a short period!

With increased sales, the guide’s income would naturally improve.

But for the guide surnamed Chen, the most important thing wasn’t this.

As Fu Guan said, the Wuhe Phoenix Tail Chicken was his beloved chicken.

Because the only breeding base for Wuhe Phoenix Tail Chicken in Dongxia City was run by his family.

If the chicken breast that Qin Lang used was from the Wuhe Phoenix Tail Chicken…

Thinking of this, Chen, the guide, looked at Qin Lang with an intense eagerness.

He swiftly walked up, shoved Fu Guan to the side, and warmly grabbed Qin Lang’s hand, “Brother Qin Lang, I didn’t recognize you before, but I’ve been following you for quite some time.”

“To tell you the truth, if you plan to use the breast meat of the Wuhe Phoenix Tail Chicken for the next match, I have even better options.”

“We can directly go to the breeding base of the Wuhe Phoenix Tail Chicken, and you can take whichever one you like!”
