The innocent young man grabbed the ceramic bowl and finished yet another bowl of Sweet and Sour Cream Soup. The soup was so hot that his lips were stained red. he panted repeatedly and sweat formed on the tip of his nose.
This Sweet and Sour Cream Soup was too delicious. It was hard to imagine that it was made from such simple ingredients.
If the ingredients contained spirit energy, the innocent young man could still understand. However… these were just normal everyday ingredients; they did not contain any spirit energy.
The food made with this kind of ingredient actually tasted better than those that contained spirit energy. This was abnormal and beyond what the innocent young man could comprehend.
At that moment, Wei Dafu did not look too good. This was because Bu Fang's mocking look had made him turn red. He felt very embarrassed. It was like a slap on his face when a newbie challenged his authority in the Cooks' Army Unit.
This was unforgivable. That's like challenging a tiger in its den—it was seeking death!
Although… the dish he made was extremely tasty, he did not have any right to be so arrogant. No matter how delectable it was, this dish was still made from basic ingredients.
”I admit… your dish is delicious, but please do not think that a tasty dish would give you the right to be presumptuous. You need to realize… we are now at the Cooks' Army Unit. We face the most undesirable cooking environment but we must still provide the soldiers with a satisfying meal, a meal that allows the soldiers to stay motivated!” said Wei Dafu with a straight face.
His voice was not loud but very authoritative. This made everyone who had just tasted Bu Fang's soup to stop all of their actions and stare at both of them without daring to make any noise.
Many of them were very impressed by Bu Fang because he was the first ever newcomer to cook a dish that Wei's foul mouth could not criticize. However, they also realized that Bu Fang will not have such an easy time from today on. After all, this was the Cooks' Army Unit, not a normal kitchen.
”Hmmm... you cook very well, huh? That's great… I shall not make it hard for you. After all, every talent in the Cooks' Army Unit is a treasure. I give you permission to cook. However, since you are able to bring the best out of ordinary ingredients, you shall be in charge of cooking all ordinary ingredients,” Wei Dafu squinted his eyes and exclaimed.
The surrounding people were all stunned and looked at Bu Fang. They felt sorry for him. That innocent young man also pitied Bu Fang.
”Our Cooks' Army Unit deals mainly with spirit energy ingredients. No matter how tasty your dish that was made from ordinary ingredient is… the soldiers will not eat them. This newcomer... what a pity.”
Many felt sorry for him and sighed.
They knew clearly in their hearts that Bu Fang knew how to cook with spirit energy ingredients. He might even be able to create even more delicious dishes with spirit energy ingredients. After all, such ingredients had much better texture than ordinary ones.
Upon hearing what Wei Dafu said, Bu Fang frowned uncontrollably. He could only cook ordinary ingredients? As he looked at that proud and smirking Wei Dafu, Bu Fang nodded his head slightly. He actually agreed.
Wei Dafu was astonished. He folded his arms, waiting for Bu Fang to bootlick him. After all, if he only cooked ordinary ingredient in the Cooks' Army Unit, it was the same as being sidelined.
”Hmmm! Arrogant young fellow, know your limit, young man! Let's wait till your basic dish gets neglected, then you will come over to ask for my forgiveness…. At the time, I might not even forgive you!”
Wei Dafu thought in his mind.
”Long Cai, bring this kid to collect the steel pot, then bring him to the unit that he belongs to. Have Xiao Huang who's in charge of cooking of basic ingredients to cook spirit energy ingredients instead,” Wei Dafu stared at Bu Fang expressionlessly. He then looked at the innocent young man, instructed him, and left for his tent with his steel ladle in hand.
Long Cai looked on as Wei Dafu walked away. He put down the ceramic bowl as he stuck out his tongue.
”Please follow me,” Long Cai exclaimed as he started to walk off. ”I am Long Cai, the youngest member of the Cooks' Army Unit. What's your name? The Sweet and Sour Cream Soup you made just now tasted superb… I've never tasted a basic dish that's so delicious.”
Long Cai introduced himself to Bu Fang and stared at him with glittering eyes.
