One? You’re underestimating Jing Shu’s money-making prowess!
Wen Jun waved his hand: "She’ll manage, she’ll manage. Don’t just talk about one, even ten wouldn’t be a problem! Luckily, Jing Shu let us co out, or we wouldn’t have found this leak. If she ca out herself, it would arouse suspicion, so we’re just right for this kind of work.
But not to ntion, she’s really frugal."
Guo Tou scratched his head: "What do you an? Boss Jing isn’t the kind of person content with daily life. Look at her, eating and drinking like there’s no tomorrow, even fattening up Xiao Wei. Even landlords in the apocalypse wouldn’t be so extravagant, throwing a celebration feast with Buddha Jumps Over the Wall on the first day of the voyage."
While talking, Guo Tou drooled, wondering what Buddha Jumps Over the Wall really tasted like.
Wen Jun shook his head with a smile, heading out of the submarine with Guo Tou and returned to their big ship. Pointing at the submarine being pushed by the dense rotten rmaids under the sea, he said, "Look, she won’t even leave a single crew mber, not even willing to use fuel, forcibly allowing these rotten rmaids to push the submarine along the way. And she doesn’t know how to live frugally?"
Hey, right! That’s really sparing.
Guo Tou scratched his head, finding it strange. After killing all the crew navigating the ship, he spent the journey tidying up the submarine without noticing it returned to the big ship by itself. It’s kind of miraculous, huh.
Guo Tou recalled the hot topic from the headlines before the apocalypse and said, "Maybe this is the world of the rich, spending hundreds of thousands on shipping costs to transport a supercar to a place, driving it for a few days, then spending manpower and resources to transport it back, claiming to save the car’s mileage. I can’t figure out what’s being saved here."
Even if Wen Jun thought Guo Tou was foolish, there’s nothing wrong with this comparison—it’s quite similar to Boss Jing’s thods. But while transporting cars takes manpower and resources, these rotten rmaids? Consuming corpse worms underwater every hundred miles?
Just then, Jing Shu returned from the official ship to Xiao Wei’s boat, smiling as she said, "Spend where it’s needed, save where you can—eat as well as you can. Save on fuel when possible, why would I waste free labor? Am I out of my mind? But I have to say, Guo Tou, for taking such good care of the submarine, you deserve an extra bowl of Buddha Jumps Over the Wall for tonight’s celebration feast!"
"Wow, thank you, Boss Jing!!"
"Let’s go, ti for the celebration feast!"
The group, full of delight, headed to the big dining room on the ship. Not many people were gathered here, just Xiao Wei and so folks from their village.
And this opening day, on the first day to the Middle East, they happily acquired a submarine—an auspicious sign! A must for a grand al!
The dining hall on the ship was large, with a 3-ter-plus custom table for Xiao Wei placed in the center, filled with dishes that were colorful, aromatic, and flavorful, not to ntion generous in portion.
Especially the massive centerpiece pot of Buddha Jumps Over the Wall, covered with thick sea cucumbers, scallops, large prawns, abalone, pork skin, and other luxurious ingredients. Golden, rich soup poured over it, steaming with fragrant aroma that hit you as soon as you entered, making your mouth water uncontrollably.
Even Jing Shu couldn’t help swallowing, let alone others, as even she had never tasted this authentic Buddha Jumps Over the Wall.
This dish was prepared by Master Liang and his apprentice, who spent a week gathering the ingredients and two days cooking it.
When Jing Shu took a bite of the plump, juicy, and chewy sea cucumber, the unique soup and the chewy texture exploded in her mouth. She covered a bowl of golden soup over rice, took a bite of abalone, soft and tender, and a mouthful of rice mixed with the rich, flavorful soup...
That taste, magnificent!
Jing Shu originally wanted to say a few words but found the food stopped her, so she decided to talk after eating! The whole table, only the sounds of chopsticks clattering and the munching of food filled the air.
Even Guo Tou and Wen Jun, who initially wanted to seek credit, ate without uttering a word.
Not to ntion Master Liang, who had wanted to talk about the origin and thod of Buddha Jumps Over the Wall but couldn’t care less now. After almost six years in the apocalypse, never had ingredients been this complete, allowing for such a top-notch creation.
The taste of the top-grade Buddha Jumps Over the Wall was critically exact, almost impossible for first-tirs to discern, but crucial for those with discerning palates. A missing ingredient throws off the entire flavor, and Master Liang finally tasted it right! Truly a rare event, following Boss Jing was the right choice.
As for others, their only comnt on this dish was that it was delicious, incredibly damn delicious.
Food lover Jing Shu could discern a thing or two, like how the sea cucumber felt springy and chewy, unleashing a unique rich fragrance with each bite; the pork skin was soft, savory, and chewy, with collagen-rich flavor bursting with each bite...
And Xiao Wei ate the most, gobbling each bite without needing to chew, blushing with joy, swinging all 36 tentacles fervently.
After the al, everyone lay sprawled at the table with only Xiao Wei still devouring.
Master Liang coughed once and asked, "Boss Jing, how did you find the creamy chicken and mushroom soup?"
Jing Shu burped, then raised a thumb: "When it cos to delicious food, you’re the expert, Master Liang. This soup is rich with creamy taste, a delicious infusion of butter and flour, a taste of ecstasy with each gulp."
Master Liang nodded with satisfaction: "I’ll fry more butter and flour back, so if it becos inconvenient to prepare food or preserve it when we reach the Middle East, we can just mix it in water for a quick, tasty solution. I’ll also make other flavors like clam mushroom thick soup, creamy pumpkin thick soup, and creamy mushroom thick soup."
"Great, make sure to prepare more of these. You’re truly thoughtful; you see, you can even prepare ingredients to beco tasty instant food, start preparing now for two hundred people’s worth for three days," Jing Shu said, sipping the creamy mushroom soup again with eyes closed.
My goodness, how could sothing so delicious exist? Better than anything I’ve had at Western restaurants or Pizza Hut! Far superior to what I used to make myself; though it was fragrant, it’s evident that professional things need professional hands, and it clearly tastes more professional! As a lover of creamy mushroom soup, Jing Shu was utterly captivated!
Having won trust, Master Liang saw Jing’s good mood and continued with his thoughts: "Boss Jing, in the Buddha Jumps Over the Wall, there’s a precious ingredient, deep sea fish gelatin. I brought it from Chaoshan; see if the opportunity arises, we should acquire more of it since it’s essential to Buddha Jumps Over the Wall."
