BXBX NOVEL Chapter 239: Reward
On the other hand, Qin Lang was also tasting the Red Cooked Beef Slices prepared by Shen Qian.
He had been very interested in this dish since he saw her unique cooking technique.
The first thing that struck Qin Lang when he tasted a piece of beef slice was its spiciness.
The spicy flavor that had fully penetrated the beef, accompanied by a rich aroma, gave Qin Lang a feeling of warmth throughout his body in just an instant.
Underneath the dark brown exterior of the meat slice, the abundant juices and tender meat could be easily savored through chewing. The freshness and spiciness unique to top-tier beef intertwined, creating a unique and wonderful experience.
At this moment, Qin Lang felt as if he was soaking in a hot spring on a cold winter day, experiencing a peculiar comfort of both body and mind.
What an amazing dish!
After swallowing a piece of beef, Qin Lang was amazed and had a fuller appreciation of Shen Qian’s culinary skills.
Her cooking skills were on par with those of Lei Ke’s.
” Gurgle
“Chomp-”
The two little creatures couldn’t help swallowing as they watched the remaining slices of beef in Qin Lang’s hand droolingly.
“Here, you try too!” Qin Lang picked up two pieces and fed the creatures. Seeing them panting after finishing the beef, he burst into laughter.
“Your cooking skills are really impressive.”
Outside the Spirit Chef Association, Shen Qian spoke earnestly, with a joy of finding a worthy opponent on her face.” The Leaping Fish Banquet is coming up, let’s fight again then!”
“Okay.” Qin Lang smiled and nodded.
“By the way.” Shen Qian seemed to remember something, and asked with curiosity, “How long did it take you to get four Second-Level Food Recommender Badges?”
“Let me see…” Qin Lang thought for a moment, “Less than a month, I think.”
“What?!” Shen He couldn’t help but exclaim, “Less than a month?”
He abruptly turned his gaze to Zhou Qing and Li Hong, who were looking innocent on the side.
These two guys hadn’t mentioned this yesterday.
As a First-Level Food Recommender, Shen He knew very well how difficult it was to earn four Second-Level Food Recommender Badges within a month.
And because he had this understanding, he was even more astounded.
Shen Qian, who had asked the question, also received a stipend from her employer.
So… less than a month?
She originally thought that obtaining three Food Recommender Badges in a year was already a genius level achievement, but it turned out that there was always someone better.
But soon, Shen Qian’s expression shifted slightly, as if she had thought of something. “Then, would you like to join me in the provincial-level cooking contest in Mingjing Province?”
“The provincial-level cooking contest in Mingjing Province?” Qin Lang blinked his eyes.
Why would she suddenly bring up this?
He hadn’t even collected the five Second-Level Food Recommender Badges required for the Tianhua State cooking contest yet!
“Yes, the provincial-level cooking contest in Mingjing Province will be held in four months.” Shen Qian said excitedly.
“After the Leaping Fish Banquet, my goal is to travel to Crown Ling City and collect the remaining two Second-Level Food Recommender Badges along the way to qualify for this competition.”
“Since you were able to earn four Second-Level Food Recommender Badges in less than a month, then it should be no problem to collect five once again in Mingjing province within four months.”
“Would you like to join me on the journey after the Leaping Fish Banquet?” Shen Qian asked excitedly.
Being a Spirit Chef who is obsessed with the Food Fight, she was thrilled to meet a competitor of her age who was stronger than her.
Shen Qian’s thought process was simple. If Qin Lang could join her on the trip, she could have a Food Fights with him anywhere, any time!
If the rules are still Transparent Mode in the upcoming Food Fights, she would be able to learn a lot from Qin Lang. It’s not impossible for her cooking skills to improve drastically in the following four months!
A useful sparring partner like this is worth seizing!
“Four months later, huh…” Qin Lang thought for a while then shook his head helplessly, “I may not be able to participate.”
“The provincial-level cooking contest in Tianhua State will start a little more than four months from now, and the dates for both contests conflict with each other, so I can only choose one.”
If Qin Lang were to make a choice, he would naturally choose to participate in the competition in Tianhua State.
After all, he had been to the Bai Lu Mountain Arena once, and was quite familiar with it.
Besides, after finally earning four Second-Level Food Recommender Badges, if he were to start over in Mingjing Province, wouldn’t all the previous efforts be wasted?
“That’s too bad,” Shen Qian sighed, “I was hoping we could travel together.”
“We could do that,” Qin Lang suddenly said.
“Huh?”
“I heard that the sea view in Crown Ling City is the most beautiful in the entire Samiya region.” Qin Lang smiled, “So I initially planned to visit Crown Ling City after the Leaping Fish Banquet.”
Encouragingly, Zhou Qing, standing on the side, said with a smile, “Traveling and seeing more things when one is young is a good thing. If I didn’t have to work as a Food Recommender, I would have wanted to join you in watching the sea view in Crown Ling City.”
“Regrettably, I also have work to deal with afterward, and I have to return to Tianhua State after the Leaping Fish Banquet,” Li Hong said with the same regret.
“Although my goal is not the provincial-level cooking contest in Mingjing Province, our destinations are the same, so we can still travel together,” Qin Lang said with a smile as he looked at Shen Qian.
“No problem!” Shen Qian’s eyes lit up again.
Shen He, who was standing by, was satisfied with what he saw and nodded approvingly.
He was aware of his granddaughter’s upcoming trip.
He had always been worried that Shen Qian would face troubles when traveling alone. Now that she had a companion, they could take care of each other.
“Buzz—”
The cell phone in his pocket vibrated slightly. Shen He looked at it and smiled, “The rules for this Leaping Fish Banquet have been officially announced.”
The others, hearing the news, quickly took out their phones to check.
Even though they had already known the specific content of the Leaping Fish Banquet rules two days ahead, there might be some discrepancies in the official announcement, so they needed to exam it carefully.
Qin Lang quickly skimmed through from the beginning, and soon confirmed that the rules of this Leaping Fish Banquet were roughly the same as what Shen He had mentioned earlier.
Then, his gaze stopped at the bottom of the announcement.
There, the rewards for the winners of the Leaping Fish Banquet were listed.
This was something that Shen He had not mentioned before.
The rewards for the winners of both the All-age Group and Youth Group were the same.
A generous package of precious food specialties from Mingjing Province, a Winner Commemorative Medal, and…
Cooking Notes (Replica) of Lady Ye Cangqing.
Qin Lang’s pupils slightly contracted.
The cooking notes of a Third-Level Food Recommender, which must contain valuable information, were of great reference value to him.
Compared to this, the first two rewards were minor.
“I didn’t expect Lady Ye Cangqing to be so generous this time,” Shen He said in amazement, “She has never offered her cooking notes as rewards in previous Leaping Fish Banquets.”
“This Leaping Fish Banquet is bound to be even more exciting!”
An expectant look appeared on Qin Lang’s face.
He was determined to win the Youth Group competition!
