"If you're doing it for food, I suggest you marry a fat person!" Bai Tang did not feel the joy and shyness of being proposed to; she could not believe that Kate would suddenly develop feelings for her. It wasn't that she was belittling herself, but her interactions with Kate were more like those of good buddies. The strength Bai Tang displayed made Kate see her as a man rather than a woman.
Imagine a fat person throwing flirtatious glances at her while wearing a wedding dress; Kate felt all the hairs on her body stand on end.
"Don't!" Kate quickly said, "The fat person belongs to Thin Man; I can't shamelessly steal someone else's love."
"Really? You're serious?" Bai Tang was astonished that her two subordinates were in that kind of relationship.
At this point, the future era had already passed laws allowing same-sex marriage, and the technology for men to have children was mature, so men no longer had to worry about their lineage ending.
"Of course, those two are already preparing to get their marriage certificate." Kate winked. "When the time comes, you, as their boss, will have to spend some money!"
"Spending money is fine; these two can help me make money. Giving them two layers of profit is not too much." Bai Tang snapped back from her surprise, thinking that it was great for the fat person and Thin Man to get married. They had always been together; Thin Man had suffered setbacks, and the fat person would rather be a thug and robber with him. Their hardships should not separate them. If they grew distant because of their respective marriages, that would be too regrettable.
"Two layers of profit? Are you serious?" Kate was taken aback; what a generous offer! The two restaurants in Huaxia were making a fortune, and with such a generous boss like Bai Tang, the fat person and Thin Man were truly lucky!
"Not spending much means not gaining much; they can create greater profits for me."
"That makes a lot of sense."
"Of course, there's also a saying: 'You can't catch wolves without letting go of your children.' If I give them enough benefits, they will work wholeheartedly for me."
"What are wolves?" Wolves were also considered extinct in Future World.
"Wolves are relatives of dogs," Bai Tang said gratefully that dogs had not gone extinct. "Wolves are animals from Ancient Earth, medium-sized and well-proportioned, with long limbs suitable for fast running. They have pointed heads and faces, prominent noses, upright ears, keen sense of smell, and developed hearing. They excel at quick and long-distance running and often prefer to live in groups while hunting. They are carnivorous and feed on herbivores and rodents, inhabiting forests, deserts, mountains, cold grasslands, coniferous forests, and grasslands. Wolves are among the most loyal animals to their partners and represent fidelity..."
"What an interesting animal! It's a pity they're extinct; otherwise, I would raise one," Kate expressed strong interest in the wolves described by Bai Tang.
"If you get the chance, I'll help you find one," Bai Tang said. Wolves from the Twenty-First Century couldn't be captured casually, but in Red Mansion World, it was possible! It had been a long time since she visited Red Mansion World; she wondered if Yongming Emperor was still there.
Bai Tang's thoughts drifted back to Red Mansion World. She needed to replenish her stock of Gold Ingots for buying the Soul Locking Array's array plate; her supplies were running low. Yes, she should sneak over to Red Mansion World; as long as she didn't reveal her whereabouts, Yongming Emperor and trouble wouldn't find her.
"Are wolves extinct? Where would you go to find them?"
"The universe is so vast; who knows which remote planet might still have traces of wolves! Just like Ancient Earth, it was only recently discovered."
"That's true!" Kate nodded. "I didn't expect you to become an Interstellar Adventurer."
Interstellar Adventurer is a profession similar to the relic hunters and treasure hunters in Hunter x Hunter.
"That's interesting! I was stuck on Ancient Earth for over twenty years, and I vowed that if I could leave Ancient Earth, I would travel everywhere and not stay on one planet for too long." In fact, it was an excuse to return to the Twenty-First Century; otherwise, how could she explain her long disappearance? However, the various planets in the Future World are all fascinating and unique—like the last planet she visited, which was ninety percent ocean, a great way to escape Summer's End in Shu—she wanted to explore every planet and see what they had to offer.
"As a friend, I can only advise you to prioritize safety; don't push yourself in dangerous places."
"Thank you!" Bai Tang appreciated Kate's concern.
Kate held her stomach: "If you really want to thank me, make me some delicious food."
"Weren't you just served two plates of dim sum?" Bai Tang stared at Kate's stomach, wondering where all that food had gone.
"Hehe!" Kate smiled shyly. "Two plates of dim sum are only enough for me to feel three-quarters full. Be generous and make me a couple more dishes!"
"Foodie!" Bai Tang teased as she walked into the Kitchen.
"Wow, have you invented new dishes again? What is this?" Kate looked at the four dishes Bai Tang had prepared, all of which she had never seen before. The taste aside, the aroma and presentation were extraordinary. Especially one dish shaped like a rose, which looked just like a real rose—so beautiful.
"Purple Sweet Potato Rose Bun." The Purple Sweet Potato Rose Bun is actually quite easy to make; it's just steamed purple sweet potato puree mixed with flour and water. The key to this dish is the craftsmanship—how well you can shape it like a rose.
"What about this one that looks like a chrysanthemum?"
"Chrysanthemum Fish!"
"Fish? Is this made from fish? I can't tell!" Kate widened her eyes and looked closely.
"Chrysanthemum Fish is a famous dish from Ancient Huaxia, resembling blooming chrysanthemums. Its shape is lifelike, the colors are vibrant, and it emits an enticing aroma; the texture is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, with a sweet and sour taste."
"How is it made?" Kate immediately opened her holographic device and took several photos to post outside on her social network, quickly attracting many onlookers. Her mailbox was flooded with comments like "I want to eat this," "I'm jealous," "Where did the host find this delicious food? Hurry up and share the restaurant address," and "Is this a new dish from Huaxia Restaurant?"
After posting the photos, Kate opened the recording function: "Go!"
"..." Bai Tang was impressed by Kate's boldness.
"Clean the fish by gutting it, removing scales and gills, and washing it thoroughly. First, chop off the head and tail, then remove the backbone and belly bones while keeping the skin intact; make cuts in the fish meat down to the skin but do not cut through it, making four to five sections. Then slice along the muscle into strips without cutting through the skin, sprinkle a little salt to help it stick together, and coat evenly with dry starch. Fry in hot oil until golden brown, then drain and plate it before drizzling with sauce. As for the sauce's flavor—spicy or sweet—it’s all up to personal preference."
"Okay, okay, next dish."
"Guo Bao Rou..."
"This dish is Dinghu Shangsu, which is entirely vegetarian. Ancient Huaxia has a famous banquet called Manchu Han Imperial Feast, which was a grand feast hosted by the emperor for ministers and guests in the Palace. Dinghu Shangsu was one of the dishes served there; it is said that an old monk from Dinghu Mountain Qingyun Temple specially prepared it to satisfy some guests visiting the mountain."
