Chapter 23: 23 God Level Operation

Tasting Everything Under Heaven had just answered Tao Tie’s question. The price tag he typed out was — HX¥2,000.

This super-elite high price tag sent most of the people into a frenzy.

I Am a Foodie sent out an ‘I agree’ emoji, “The value of a unique gourmet food cannot be measured with money. Those who wish to eat these kinds of food could only depend on fate to guide their way. The ingredients used to make this Cola Tofu are rare and precious items. In fact, I would say that HX¥2,000 is quite cheap, if this is served at a 5-star restaurant, the price would have at least doubled.”

“What? F… 4,000?”

“Oh my, HX¥4,000 just for a plate of tofu? I Am a Foodie, you’re just teasing us, surely?”

“That’s right, though the ingredients for this tofu are high-quality stuff, it can’t actually be that expensive.”

Most of the people were rather frightened by the price given by Tasting Everything Under Heaven and I Am a Foodie. That’s because the prices were really quite outrageous HX¥3,000 or HX¥4,000 just for a plate of tofu, were those things made out of gold?

Tasting Everything Under Heaven, “As Foodie Bro said, quite a lot of gourmet food out there can’t be bought with mere money.”

“Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah, this is too exciting! Daddy’s watching the birth of a plate of tofu costing over two or three thousand yuans!!”

“Surely, that’s too much? I just can’t wrap my mind around it, ah.”

“This thing has gone beyond rich man’s food, this is god-level food, ah.”

“Brothers, what do you say? This broadcaster is the real deal, ah. For the sake of our entertainment, he had taken out top-class ingredients, shall we?”

Nyoom~~

“I’m donating a luxury plane, no regrets.”

“Two sports cars to follow.”

“Lollipops, lollipops, daddy will smash your planes and cars with a hail of lollipops!”

In an instant, the broadcast room was once more covered with reward items of all kinds.

At this point, Ye Fei’s Cola Tofu has entered a critical stage.

Shua…

Cola Tofu, although cola was considered a supplementary ingredient. The fact that its name was attached to the dish indicated the importance of cola’s role.

Right now, Ye Fei has just completed all the necessary prep work and was about to introduce cola to the dish.

Ye Fei took out a white wine bottle that looked like it was made from porcelain from the storage box. There were no decorative patterns on the white surface, no birds, flowers, insects or fish. This lack of decorations made the only thing on the surface more obvious, a single word in bright red ink — Cola

None of them has ever seen this kind of cola bottle. However, considering the other ingredients used by Ye Fei, the origin of this cola would not be simple.

As expected, when Ye Fei took out the bottle of Cola, he gave a short introduction, “This is [1] Wan Shi Cola, produced by a cola manufacturer owned by the Wan Shi Group. This bottle of Cola is part of their special limited collection — the market price for this is HX¥500 per bottle.”

“F*ck me, 500 for a bottle of cola? Did it come from a holy spring?”

“Using HX¥500 cola to cook tofu? Your mom, isn’t this the work of a loser?”

“What loser you f*ck, think with your head. Just what kind of background did that plate of tofu and oil has? That bottle of cola is a minor player among big leagues.”

“Aiyo, my chest, the pain. To think that HX¥500 is being used like mere spring water here.”

Ye Fei did not pay attention to the people chattering among themselves on his channel. After the introduction, he poured the entire bottle of cola into the pot. After cooking it over a low fire for a minute or so, he threw in some star anise, cinnamon etc, and then increased the fire.

Three minutes later, Ye Fei turned off the fire and smiled up at the ceiling. “Friends, the Cola Tofu is now complete, now, it is time for us to witness a miracle.”

Everyone held their breath, they all stared at the screen, specifically, they were all staring at the Ye Fei’s pot. Everyone wanted to know just what kind of Cola Tofu Ye Fei had created.

Ye Fei also did not drag out the time, he removed the lid and set it aside. Then, he took out a large plate, and set it next to the pot. With an audible ‘hua la’ everything in the pot came tumbling out.

Everyone, “… …”

Watching how roughly Ye Fei treat this dish worth literally thousands of yuans made these people shoot flames from their eyes. They hated that they could not just jump through the screen and tear Ye Fei to shreds, can’t you be gentler?

“Thug, you’re a horrible thug, ah.”

“Simple mind in a strong body.”

“Be careful, you better be f*cking careful with my Cola Tofu, ah.”

Tasting Everything Under Heaven screeched down the mike, “Ye Fei, if you put that pot down carefully, we can remain friends!”

Tao Tie sent up a long line of !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

While the people were going crazy in the background, Ye Fei replaced the pot on the stove and stood back, the plate of Cola Tofu was now in full view as the cameras recorded it from above.

Looking at this plate of Cola Tofu, the people who had been filled with indignation suddenly grew silent. If these people were gathered there in person, the situation would have been quite humorous. Because right now, every single person staring at their screen had their mouths dropped open wide enough to stuff two duck’s eggs in, eyes bulging out in surprise.

“This… is Cola Tofu?”

“Oh, father in heaven, how did tofu turn out like this?”

“Broadcaster, tell me your address, daddy will buy your plate of tofu for HX¥5,000.”

“Move aside HX¥5,000, I bid HX¥8,000, no more.”

“If you’re really selling that, would this broadcaster comrade please name a price!”

Crazy, the after the quiet before the storm, another tornado of insanity swept through. People were yelling out prices as though this was an auction house, throwing their bids out recklessly to grab this Cola Tofu.

Great local tyrant I Am a Foodie smiled bitter, “This is actually a form of torture.”

Tasting Everything Under Heaven also gave a bitter smile, “I did not expect Cola Tofu made with Spring Snow tofu would turn out like this. How could such a dish exist in this world?”

Tao Tie, “It’s over, I have lost interest in all other food, I only have eyes for this plate of tofu.”

Ye Fei, who could only hear Tasting Everything Under Heaven’s voice, smiled. Then he carried the plate of Cola Tofu away from the kitchen to place it in front of the computer.

With this, everyone got an even better look at this plate of Cola Tofu.

The cubes of tofu on this plate, though it had been lightly sautéed with Rose Oil, the sides had not turned yellow or pink. In fact, the colour was still as pure white and tender looking, with an added shine that looked like a layer of milky white crystal had formed over each individual tofu cube.

Right now, after Ye Fei had placed the plate of tofu in front of the laptop, the layer of milky crystal surface gradually change. The milky colour got darker, and darker until it achieved the glossy dark brown typical of cola. The dark brown itself was kind of sparkly, like stained glass rather than dye.

“This colour… it’s like the colour is seeping out of the tofu.” With eyes sharper than a thief, Tasting Everything Under Heaven commented in disbelief.

“What? The colour came from inside? How could it be possible? He added the cola last, that means the colour could only come from outside, how could the colour come from within?”

“It’s obvious, ah. The cola has completely soaked into the tofu, when the surface temperature of the tofu is cooler than the inside, the cola starts to appear. Only, how is this thing done?”

“Deity Ye is a true deity, ah.”

“That’s right, this is clearly a godly creation.”

That herd of people had been shaken stupid. As people who love food to the point of idiocy, this was almost like seeing the Holy Grail. Since the plate was stain-free, that means the tofu must have sucked up every drop of the cola. Anyone who eats this tofu would be able to enjoy two separate flavours together, the wonderful pure taste of tofu and the sweet fragrance of cola, what a rare and unique gourmet food.

Nyoom~ nyoom ~ nyoom~

While the others were still staring dazedly at the screen, three luxury planes flew by.

“I am speechless by this miracle, please accept these planes as a symbol of respect from me.”

Everyone’s eyes quickly went to the name of the person who had so casually sent these planes, as expected, it was that local tyrant I Am a Foodie again.

The whole audience was stirred up once more. Planes! Planes again, moreover, three planes in one go. That’s HX¥15,000, ah. This I Am a Foodie is beyond grand.

However, while the others were still writhing over a rich man’s casual spending, two more planes flew elegantly across the screen, this time sent by Tasting Everything Under Heaven.

Everyone, “… …”

Your mom, ah, just what kind of performance is this? Planes, all planes, ah. Since when have planes become a common reward item? One plane cost HX¥5,000 you know, and here you guys just chuck HX¥10,0000 or HX¥20,000 like pocket change, just how rich are you guys?

With I Am a Foodie and Tasting Everything Under Heaven in the lead, another storm of rewards hailed across the screen once again.

Flowers, claps, lollipops fell like rain, bicycles, electric cars, and sports cars zoomed past the screens as though people were watching some kind of strange competition on who could buy the most candy and lollipops…

Occasionally, a random plane would nyoomed through the screen, just for variety.

Watching his screen covered with rewards, Ye Fei nearly floated to the heavens with happiness. Rich, I’m really rich, the rewards for this broadcast have gone beyond even my wildest imagination.

“Many thanks to my wonderful comrades, I, Ye Fei will not disappoint you. I shall now eat this Cola Tofu. Therefore, feel free to cheer me on and let the rewards continue!”

With that, Ye Fei picked up a cube of Cola Tofu and held it to the light for a moment before taking a small bite and chewing delicately.

While he was chewing, he held out the bitten part of the tofu cube to the camera for a close-up shot.

When the audience saw the close-up, chaos erupted again.

[Gumihou: …dunno, man, why would you chew soft tofu?]

[1] Fantasy ingredient – Wan Shi Cola

Wan Shi is from the greetings ‘Wan Shi Ru Yi’ 万事如意 aka Good Luck in 10,000 things.
