C4 Fifteen Years of Culinary Studies

"Little friend, don't worry. The delicacy this old man taught you is extremely easy to learn." The old grandfather seemed to know what Tang Zhen was worried about and opened his mouth to comfort him.

After hearing the old grandpa's words, Tang Zhen's heart didn't relax at all. He became even more nervous. In Tang Zhen's mind, the old grandpa in front of him was just a virtual character created by the system, a program that did not even know what emotions were. Of course everything was easy for the program.

But when Tang Zhen heard the name of the delicacy from the old grandpa, he almost burst out laughing. Holding the kitchen knife in his hand, the grandpa said with a serious expression, "Little friend, the delicacy this old man is going to teach you is called vegetable beef porridge."

"Vegetable beef porridge?" Are you sure you aren't playing with me, System? Do you think I need you to teach me this? In his previous life, he would often make his own vegetable beef porridge at home. Was there even a need to learn this?

"Puchi!" Tang Zhen was still unable to hold back his laughter.

But facing Tang Zhen's laughter, the old grandpa didn't have any reaction to interrupt and continued, "The raw material for vegetable beef porridge is 40 grams of beef, 1/4 bowl of rice, 1 spinach, 1/2 cup of broth, 1/5 of potatoes, carrots, onions, salt …"

In his previous life, Tang Zhen often cooked his own vegetable beef porridge at home, so he was naturally very familiar with the way vegetable beef porridge was cooked.

The method of making vegetable beef porridge was only three points.

(1) Prepare and grind beef meat.

(2) Stewed and mashed spinach, carrots, onions and potatoes.

(3) Bring the rice, vegetables and minced meat to a pot and cook, seasoning with salt.

However, when the old grandpa's voice disappeared, Tang Zhen was no longer able to laugh. It was because a cow had materialized in front of Tang Zhen.

At this moment, the old grandpa was explaining how to kill cattle and choose the best beef for the vegetable beef porridge. Tang Zhen was completely shocked and his mouth was wide open, his eyes like a pair of bull's eyes.

What was going on? Can anyone tell me? System, are you trying to scam me!? [This old grandpa actually wanted to kill an ox with his own hands in order to teach me how to make vegetable beef porridge.]

As expected, the system's dimension was formidable! In this place, even if one wanted to make ordinary beef porridge made from vegetables, it was not something that an ordinary person could do. In the real world, there was no one who would directly kill an ox just because they wanted to make a vegetable beef porridge. He went straight to the supermarket and bought an ordinary piece of beef from the market.

The System is indeed the System. Like I said, how can learning how to cook in the System Space be simple? Even if he wanted to make a simple vegetable beef porridge, he would need to learn the saber art of killing an ox!

From the initial contempt Tang Zhen had, to the present serious study. However, he had spent two years learning in the system's space before the cow he killed finally reached the required level. In other words, two hours had already passed in the real world.

Initially, Tang Zhen had come to learn how to kill cattle faster, but the kitchen knife in the system's space was very heavy. If Tang Zhen wanted to be able to easily pick up an ordinary kitchen knife in the System's space, he would have to first increase the power of his arm.

This was why he had taken two years to kill an ox. Actually, one year to kill an ox. For the rest of the year, Tang Zhen had come to raise the arm strength of his hands.

… ….

"Ding!" Congratulations, you have learned the first delicacy, vegetable, beef porridge. " At the same time the System's voice rang out, Tang Zhen got up from the bed. The first thing Tang Zhen did when he woke up was to check his alarm clock. What time was it?

"It is now the middle of the night, what time did I sleep yesterday? Oh, yes, I remember now... I slept a full fifteen hours, which is to say. It took me fifteen years to learn how to make a vegetable beef porridge.

"Fortunately, I learned culinary arts in the system's space. Otherwise, if I had to spend 15 years learning this vegetable beef porridge in the real world, I would have starved to death already."

"Ding!" The host is requested to sell a thousand bowls of vegetable beef porridge in one day. Whenever the host can sell a thousand bowls of vegetable beef porridge in a day, the host can level up to one star human chef.

"The unit price of the vegetable beef porridge is 99 dollars per bowl. The system has determined that this price should not be lowered by the host's price after combining it with the test results of the Skyblue Star World that the host is currently in."

Damn! Initially, Tang Zhen thought that the only way to sell a thousand bowls of vegetable beef porridge in one day was to lower the price. However, the system had long prevented him from doing so.

The System didn't mention what kind of punishment it would be if Tang Zhen didn't follow the System's instructions and lowered the price.

However, Tang Zhen did not dare to disobey the System. After being electrocuted by the System last time, he knew that if he wanted to survive on this planet, he had to obediently listen to the System.

Even five dollars might not be enough to sell a thousand bowls of vegetable beef porridge a day, let alone ninety-nine dollars a bowl of vegetable beef porridge. However, since the price was set by the system, Tang Zhen had to force himself to sell a thousand bowls of vegetable beef porridge.

Although $99 a bowl of beef and vegetables porridge was a little hard to sell for a thousand bowls a day, it was still a big deal. But no matter how difficult it was, Tang Zhen had to do it. Otherwise, he would not be able to raise his cultivation level to one star chef.

It was impossible for him to sell vegetable beef porridge today, as he never had no preparation. So Tang Zhen went to the market first to buy the ingredients needed to make the vegetable beef porridge.

Fortunately, the System did not request for him to kill a live cow to be used as a ingredient for the vegetable beef porridge. Otherwise, he would have to rob the bank. Because he didn't have enough money left to buy a live cow.

Although Tang Zhen did not have much money left in his pockets, he could buy enough to make twenty servings of vegetable beef porridge. Tang Zhen thought that he would buy twenty portions of ingredients for the vegetable porridge today.

Ninety-nine dollars a bowl of vegetable beef porridge. After he sold it, he would slowly buy more of the ingredients needed to make the vegetable beef porridge.

After all, once he arrived at the market, he knew what he needed to buy. Furthermore, based on the culinary skills he had learned in the System Space, he had also learned how to tell with a glance if the dishes were fresh or not.

He had already bought the ingredients, but by the time he returned to Zhen's restaurant, it was already too late. After all, the place where he came from was still rather far from the market.

When Tang Zhen returned to the dining room, he put all the ingredients he bought into the kitchen and began to busy himself.

Tang Zhen had come to the system's space to study culinary arts for 15 years, and he only cooked vegetables, beef porridge and such a delicacy. Now that he had the ingredients, he could finally unleash his full prowess.

The first thing Tang Zhen did was to handle the spinach and carrots, the onions and potatoes, and finally the beef. Of course, before he dealt with these ingredients, Tang Zhen had already prepared a pot of rice.

When Tang Zhen came to his previous life, he had to take at least seven or eight minutes to process the four ingredients: spinach, carrots, onions, and potatoes. However, after going through the system's culinary studies, he was able to process these four ingredients in less than a minute.

His speed was so fast that it was impossible to see clearly with one's eyes. One could only see that Tang Zhen was cooking and saw a pair of blurry hands dancing.

… ….

"It's a success!" Two minutes later, a fragrant vegetable beef porridge was prepared. If he were to make the vegetable beef porridge at a normal speed, it would have been impossible for him to do so in two minutes.

This was because it was impossible to cook the porridge in less than 10 or 20 minutes. However, all of this was not a problem in front of the kitchen utensils produced by the system. One had to know that this restaurant was built by the system, and the kitchenware was also provided by the system.

"I've studied vegetable beef porridge for 15 years. Let me have a taste of it!" Tang Zhen came over with a bowl of vegetable beef porridge and sat down at a table. Just as he was about to eat vegetable beef porridge, the restaurant's doorbell rang.

"Eh? "I don't plan on opening the store today, since it's not open at all. How could there be a customer visiting?" Tang Zhen looked at the door of the restaurant with a strange expression as his heart was filled with curiosity.

The system had told Tang Zhen that anyone who wanted to enter the restaurant, as long as the system detected them, would automatically ring the doorbell at the restaurant's entrance. No one had to press the doorbell to ring it.

In other words, the person outside the door was not necessarily a customer, but could also be a thief or something. But perhaps, Tang Zhen thought, he was not a thief. No thief would dare to steal things in broad daylight! While thinking of this, Tang Zhen had already put down the vegetable and beef porridge and walked out of the restaurant …

"Hey!" Strange, why is there no one here? It's impossible for the system to make a mistake! " When Tang Zhen opened the restaurant's door, he found that there was no one outside. As such, he began to wonder if the system had mistakenly judged that a customer had come to visit.

Just as Tang Zhen was about to close the door and return to the dining room, a childish voice entered his ears. Then, he felt that something had grabbed onto the corner of his pants.

"Lord Father, are you my father?"

Tang Zhen lowered his head and looked. The person grabbing onto the corner of his pants was a little girl. Judging from her height, she should only be five or six years old!

"I'm not your father. Little girl, don't call me that, okay?" Tang Zhen said to the little girl as if he was speaking to him. In his heart, he thought, whose family's daughter is this little girl?

A baby fat little face, pink and tender, with two dimples on both sides of the face. It must be very pretty when you smile … This little girl was too cute!

The system wouldn't make a mistake, does that mean this little girl wants to enter my restaurant to eat? He must be starving! Maybe the little girl had gone on a trip to Hollywood with his family, and then the little girl in front of him had been separated from her parents.

The little girl didn't have the money to buy food to eat, so when she finally saw me, she called me daddy and wanted me to give him food to eat … Hm! It looks like this. It must be this way.

"NO!" You really are my father! Father, mother said that Father will definitely be very happy to see Guo Guo, but father, you won't recognize me as your daughter. I, I. Wuu! Wuu! "Woo woo …

As the little girl spoke, she began to cry, tears rolling down her face.

"This... I... "You …" Seeing the crying little girl, Tang Zhen touched his head. He didn't know what to do. In the end, thinking about it, it wasn't a big deal for the two of them to just stand outside the restaurant. Fortunately, there was no one else here, otherwise, he would have been mistaken by others as the 'murderer' who bullied the little girl.

However, Tang Zhen had no idea that his every move was being watched by a pair of eyes. The owner of those eyes was none other than Tang Zhen's future wife's sister, Shui Xiang.

That's right! The little girl that called Tang Zhen was Tang Guoguo. The reason Tang Guoguo was here was because the fragrance of water had brought her here.
