Chapter 3: 3

Chapter 3 Steamed Bun (part 1)

The fish bones soup was very aromatic, and taste stronger than the mushroom soup. The wild vegetables were infused with the aroma of the fish soup. They also have a unique taste of their own.

The children had been begging for alms for a long time. At the most, they have some buns or hard pancakes. For these people who have not eaten warm food for a long time, they once the smelled the aroma, they immediately drool.

At long last, they can finally eat, and they immediately grabbed the food and swallowed it as fast as they can.

"Oh, it is tasty!" Xiao Qi and the rest of the little beggars were so touched that they nearly cried.

These few days were like a slice of heaven for them. They need not go hungry and could eat such tasty food. They thought that these foods only appear in their dreams. Never did they expect to be able to fill their bellies, and fill it with tasty food as well!

"Eat slowly, do not choke!" Shiyu was heartbroken at their plight. "In future, you will have more food. Your lives will also slowly become better."

Without hope, there is no life.

The next morning, Shiyu woke up and begin cooking again. After she busied herself for some time, she finally finished cooking. First, she filled a small earthen pot and use some cloth to tie it up.

As for the rest, she called everyone to eat.

After everyone had eaten their fill, she headed out towards the restaurant.

She reached the back door of the restaurant where she got the fish bones yesterday. After waiting for a short while, the same trainee chef walked out. In his hand is the fish bones. When he saw her, he was surprised, "You came?"

"That is for sure. I had said that I will bring you the soup for you to try, and I will definitely do it! Here you go!" Under the cloth, the earth jar is still warm, and the smell effused out.

The trainee chef's face turned a bit red. He was feeling awkward, "You eat it! My Shifu treated me well, and I have food to eat..."

"The food I made is different from your Shifu. This is made using the fish bones that you give to me. It is also a gesture of my thanks!" Shiyu replied.

Seeing that he could not refuse, the trainee chef accepted the gift. "Oh, yes, this is the fish bones that I have promised you. Tomorrow there are more. Come back tomorrow!"

"Thank you. Please try the soup!"

The trainee chef opened the lid of the jar and immediately a mouth-watering aroma effused out. He took a sip directly from the jar and his jaw dropped in amazement.

"This... this taste..."

Shiyu was very happy when she saw his expression. This is the expression that her guests have when she cooks!

"How is it? Not bad right?"

It is not only 'not bad'!

The trainee chef immediately took another large mouthful. The soup was hot and tasty and does not have any fishy smell. The vegetables inside the soup were also very aromatic, and have the slight taste of wild vegetables. This is a taste that he had never tried before. Even his Shifu could not cook something as tasty as this.

The two of them were standing there, when a loud shout rang out, "Bu Yan, what are you doing outside? Come in and help quickly! Are you loafing while on the job?"

As soon as he heard this, the trainee chef immediately shouted back, "I will be there shortly!"

Shiyu noted that there was still quite a bit of soup. She suggests, "You go on to work first! I will come back and get this jar tomorrow afternoon.

"Great! See you!" the trainee chef immediately grabbed the earthen jar and run back to the restaurant.

After Shiyu had left, the trainee chef returned to the restaurant. He is a kitchen hand and helps to prepare all the ingredients. Once he gets busy, he does not have the time to eat. He could only place the earthen jar on a side and busied himself.

But he placed the earthen jar in a corner of the stove. As the stove heated up, the temperature increased, and the earthen jar got heated up as well.

Slowly, there is a unique aroma in the kitchen. All the chefs in the kitchen have a strong sense of smell and taste. At first, the chef thought that smell is a result of his dishes. But after cooking several plates of different vegetables, the smell did not fade. Rather, it becomes more aromatic.

He stood there and sniffed around. With a sniff sniff here, and a sniff sniff there, he finally reached the source of the fragrant smell - the earthen jar.

When he opened the lid, a pleasant aroma effused out. When he looked inside, the white colour soup was filled with vegetables. Just one look is enough to whet a person's appetite.

He picked up a spoon and tasted it. Then his expression changed.

"This soup is made from the meat of spiritual beasts?"

He could not help thinking in this way. Right now, within the restaurant, the food that he made not very tasty. Only the commoners will order the food from this restaurant. The richer men like to order food that contains spiritual energy. For the very rich, they demand the meat of spiritual beasts. The meat of spiritual beasts contains a large amount of spiritual energy, and the taste is very tender and juicy. Just one bite could strengthen the body.

Like humans, spiritual beasts can cultivate and are very powerful. Even the low-level spiritual beasts are not easy to catch. Therefore, all the restaurants have to go to the adventurer guild to hire adventurers to gather the ingredients for them. And the prices of these meats are very expensive. The restaurant he is working in had not ordered any spiritual beast meat for a long time.

Right now, the soup that the chef drank is as tasty as the soup from the meat of a spiritual beast. Therefore, he made a wild guess.

Right now there are spiritual beast ingredients in the kitchen. So where did this earthen jar comes from?

He decided to ask around and summoned all the trainee chefs.

"Shifu," Bu Yan called out.

The Chef put the earthen jar in front of him and asked, "Is this yours?"

"Yes."

"Where did you get it? Or did you steal it?" Most ordinary men could not afford to eat the meat of spiritual beasts.

"It is a gift from a friend." Bu Yan replied.

"Friend?" The chef frowned and continued to ask, "Your friend is very rich, he can afford to give you such an expensive soup. Do you know that this soup was made using the meat of spiritual beast?"

"Arh? Cannot be!" Bu Yan's eyes widen in surprise, "She told me that this soup was made using fish bones!"

"Fish bones?" The chef does not believe him.

"That's right!" Bu Yan explained the situation to the chef.

After thinking for a while, he advised his disciple, "Do not tell anyone about this, do you understand?" The chef did not mention anything about wanting to meet Bu Yan's friend.

If what his disciple said is true, then if the beggar can use fish bones to make such delicious food, then he definitely could do it as well. Since he had benefited from her, later he would give her more food as compensation.

The chef thought, and immediately caught a few fishes and begin to boil the fish bones.

After a long time, the soup also became milky white in colour. The chef was very happy. When he judged that the time is ripe, he took out a bowl and immediately took a sip. Then he spat out the soup.....
