The Three Join Forces, Immortal Cultivation-Style Barbecue (1/3)
Xu Changqing quickly got together with Hu Bugui.
Zhao Ziyue is still on his way.
Although this guy isn't at [Water-Control Pavilion], he's always looking for fishing spots, so he's far away.
Hu Bugui was quite worried. "Old Xu, we're not the only ones who discovered this business opportunity, are we?"
Xu Changqing waved his hand dismissively. "Don't worry, we have the advantage."
"Advantages?" Hu Bugui was taken aback.
Xu Changqing pulled out a top-quality watermelon and said, "I'm not just bragging, but with this appearance and quality, even if the price were a bit higher, there would still be plenty of people willing to buy it."
It's not that others can't cultivate top-quality fruits and vegetables.
There are definitely such people; there's no doubt about that.
Spirit Farmer can cultivate top-quality fruits and vegetables, and even top-quality Spirit Plant.
Why would I join in such a commotion just for a few Low-Grade Spirit Stone?
Hu Bugui wasn't stupid; in fact, he had a business mind. Therefore, he pondered, "You're right. We could even artificially inflate the price of a single item."
"But if there are multiple options, or if I combine my spirit beast meat with your premium fruits and Spirit Rice Wine into a set meal, as long as the average price is a little lower, even more people will buy it."
Xu Changqing exclaimed in surprise, "You're quite something, kid!"
Hu Bugui grew more and more excited, rubbing his hands together and urging, "Then what are we waiting for? Let's hurry up and grab a spot!"
Xu Changqing shook his head and said, "What's the rush? I'll get you some more barbecue seasoning."
Just grilled meat.
High emotional intelligence is described as being healthier.
A low emotional intelligence tactic is described as "lacking flavor".
"Barbecue seasoning?" Hu Bugui blinked, looking quite curious.
Xu Changqing strives to recreate the flavor of barbecue seasoning.
Unfortunately, this is the Dongting Immortal Sect, not the mortal world.
It wasn't the previous life either.
Therefore, the accuracy is only about 50%.
The main ingredients are chili peppers, salt, garlic, and sesame oil.
"Try it." Xu Changqing prepared a little and handed it over.
Hu Bugui tried licking it, then smacked his lips. "It's a little salty and a little spicy, but it feels so good!"
Xu Changqing nodded and said, "It should be both salty and spicy, otherwise who would buy my chilled watermelon and chilled Spirit Rice Wine?"
Unfortunately, it's just a basic seasoning.
It would be even better if it contained spices, flavor enhancers, thickeners, stabilizers, etc.
If we add an extra spicy or devilishly spicy one, the scene would be spectacular.
"Why haven't you set off yet?" At this moment, Zhao Ziyue finally arrived.
But suddenly, he smelled a peculiar odor.
It has a very rich aroma.
It's somewhat similar to ordinary food, but with a more pungent aroma.
Hu Bugui chuckled, "Lao Zhao, why don't you try this piece of grilled meat coated in barbecue seasoning?"
"Barbecued meat coated with barbecue seasoning?" Zhao Ziyue took the meat with some skepticism.
Large chunks of spirit beast meat were skewered on a long wooden branch.
The grilled meat on top was dripping with fat.
A faint "sizzling" sound could be heard.
The surface is coated with a layer of red oil.
A few chili seeds are sprinkled on top.
It has an enticing fragrance.
Zhao Ziyue couldn't help but swallow hard even before he started eating.
After cultivating immortality, one basically only eats Spirit Rice Grain and vegetables containing Spiritual Qi.
But this time, he couldn't resist the barbecue and immediately took a bite.
The slightly hot roasted spirit beast meat exploded in my mouth as I put it in.
The fatty meat was springy and glistening with oil.
The lean meat is firm and not dry at all.
Plus this amazing barbecue seasoning.
One bite and I was instantly intoxicated by the aroma; I devoured it all in no time.
"Give me some more!" Zhao Ziyue's eyes widened.
Xu Changqing and Hu Bugui exchanged a glance and smiled knowingly.
Then, the three prepared tables, chairs, buckets, fire stands, and the like.
With everything in order, Xu Changqing summoned his Big-Leaf Grass.
Hu Bugui was astonished. "Hey Lao Xu, you've actually changed your mode of transportation?"
Zhao Ziyue, standing nearby, looked him up and down, then said with considerable envy, "Big-Leaf Grass is much more sophisticated than Flying Paper Crane."
Xu Changqing didn't explain, but instead jumped onto the platform first, then waved to them. "Let's go!"
Immediately, the three of them rode on the Big-Leaf Grass and flew towards [Foundry Peak].
This time the journey was very fast; we arrived in no time.
Although it wasn't their first time here, the three of them seemed particularly excited this time.
It's not just because of the duel between Chu Qiu, the top-ranked player, and Lan Tian, the second- Lan Tian.
Furthermore, since this is their first collaboration, they are both very much looking forward to it.
"Chu Qiu has arrived, why hasn't Lan Tian come yet?"
"The second-ranked person is much more arrogant than the first-ranked person!"
"There are so many Celestial Person!"
When Xu Changqing and his two companions arrived, the entire square was already teeming with people.
And, just as they had predicted, things turned out exactly as they had expected.
People have already set up stalls here.
They sell pretty much the same things.
They were mostly fruits, vegetables, and snacks.
Some people even gambled privately using Spirit Stone and Spirit Rice Grain.
This time, Chu Qiu and Lan Tian's duel took place on arena number 1.
That area was already overcrowded; it was impossible to squeeze in.
Even in the air, there were many Flying Paper Crane and shuttles floating around.
On arena number 1, Chu Qiu was sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed.
It's unclear whether he was practicing cultivation.
Still just killing time.
Speaking of which, the thousand-year-old spirit beast Crane Seven was nowhere to be seen.
"I can't squeeze in," Hu Bugui anxiously.
Zhao Ziyue gritted his teeth. "If all else fails, let's charge in all at once."
Xu Changqing rolled his eyes upon hearing this. "If you're not afraid of getting beaten up, then go ahead!"
What day is it today?
The day the number one and number two on the leaderboard challenged each other!
The people who came to watch were all formal disciple, and their cultivation levels were quite high.
They might even show up, so they're definitely not to be trifled with.
"Uh... Hu Bugui shrank back.
"What should we do then?" Zhao Ziyue frowned.
Xu Changqing pointed to the open space in front and said, "This is the only way for spectators to pass by. Almost everyone coming here will pass by here, so let's set up our stall there."
Once the spirit beast meat is roasted, apply the basic barbecue seasoning.
Then Xiaowei will scratch it up.
Who knows, the people inside might even come out and spend money on their own.
The three of them quickly chose their spots.
A one-stop shop for grilled meat, Spirit Rice Wine, and fruit.
Xu Changqing sells Masterful Tier Spirit Rice Wine.
Zhao Ziyue sells chilled, top-quality watermelons.
Hu Bugui work hard, constantly grilling spirit beast meat and applying barbecue seasoning.
Soon, the trio attracted a lot of attention.
Anyone who comes up to [Foundry Peak] will subconsciously take a look.
What the hell?
"Why is there barbecue here?"
"These three guys are really something!"
At first, everyone was quite disdainful of Xu Changqing and his two companions.
Many people even looked at him with disdain.
After all, this is the Dongting Immortal Sect, and everyone here is a cultivator.
Everyone who came to witness this duel was formal disciple.
The food we usually eat is mostly Spirit Rice Grain and vegetables that contain Spiritual Qi.
Of course, some people also like to eat the meat of spirit beasts that are imbued with Spiritual Qi.
Different people have different preferences.
It's possible to find such a stall in this kind of setting.
This truly surprised many people.
It's even incomprehensible.
However, when the spirit beast meat was cooked...
When Hu Bugui applied the basic barbecue seasoning.
The rich aroma immediately spread.
People who were initially uninterested in these things, or even utterly disdainful, couldn't help but swallow hard!
