n189 Delicious; Arriving at the Mountain!

nOn the top floor of the Palace Hotel, there was a very spacious and tall private room with carved railings and jade walls.

nThe entire private room was luxurious and elegant, giving people the feeling that they had transformed into royalty.

nThen, Zheng Cong personally carried three porcelain bowls with gold edges into the room.

n“This is the imperial Buddha Jumps Over the Wall Soup. It’s made from a variety of meat and 18 kinds of seasonings. After 48 hours of boiling… the soup is rich and the meat soft. It melts in your mouth. Legend has it that it was the emperor’s favorite dish back then!”

nAs he spoke, Zheng Cong lifted the lids of the bowls one by one.

nWhoosh!

nWhoosh!

nWhoosh!

nIn an instant, a fragrant smell filled the entire private room, making people’s eyes widen.

nImmediately after, Zheng Cong brought over another dish. It was red and had an extremely rich fragrance.

n“This is stir-fried phoenix tongue. The original dish is stir-fried with the tongue of a sparrow. Nowadays, this kind of bird is almost extinct and has become a precious animal.

n“However, after many years of research by our chefs, the tongues of chickens, ducks, geese, pigeons, and other birds can reproduce the same flavor by mixing 11 kinds of condiments. This dish isn’t inferior to the original stir-fried phoenix tongue!”

nThen, Zheng Cong served a golden dish.

n“This is pork tenderloin.

n“Back then, most of the princes and ministers wore purses made of golden silk. Therefore, the imperial chefs imitated the purses and made this dish.

n“This dish is made from top-quality pork tenderloin, sliced jade orchid, mushrooms, eggs, and other ingredients. It’s a delicacy and was very popular among the princes and ministers.”

nA moment later, Zheng Cong carried a large golden clay pot over.

nHe placed the clay pot in the middle and slowly opened the lid.

nWhoosh!

nIn an instant, a crisp sound rang out and soared into the sky.

nAn entire duck was suspended in the middle of all kinds of precious condiments.

n“This is stewed duck,” Zheng Cong said.

n“After washing the duck, 15 kinds of seasonings were added and the duck was put in a clay pot jar to steam over a gentle fire for three days. It makes the meat completely soft and melt-in-your-mouth tender. It’s fatty but not greasy… Then, the chefs use the best soup to cook it for 12 hours to boost its fragrance…”

nZheng Cong introduced each dish in detail as it was a family treasure.

n“Gulp!”

nAh Mei, who was sitting in her seat, finally could not help but swallow her saliva.

nLin Fan smiled. “Some dishes have been served. Eat quickly. It won’t be good if it gets cold.”

nHowever, Su Ningjing and Ah Mei still did not move. They just looked at the delicious food on the table quietly with their big, sparkling eyes.

nLin Fan suddenly realized that they were waiting for him to eat.

nHe could not help but say, “Ningjing, quickly eat with Ah Mei. In the future, you can eat with me.

n“Ah Mei must have been hungry for a long time. If she continues to starve, her body won’t be able to take it.”

nSu Ningjing had long developed the habit of eating leftovers.

nWhen she heard the first half of Lin Fan’s words, she was still hesitant.

nHowever, after hearing the second half of Lin Fan’s words, she started to hesitate.

nShe looked at her sister who was swallowing her saliva and finally nodded. “Ah… Sister, let’s eat together.”

n“Yes, yes!” Ah Mei nodded vigorously.

nLin Fan, Su Ningjing, and Ah Mei were all very happy with the meal.

nBefore they left, they packed a portion of lean meat porridge and some light dishes. Only then did they leave the Palace Hotel with Zheng Cong personally sending them off.

nIn the next two days, the old lady’s mental state became better and better.

nShe could even speak with great vigor and walk without any problems.

nThe group of doctors carried out a detailed examination and called it a miracle.

nFinally, the old lady was allowed to leave the hospital.

nAt this moment, Lin Fan was driving the Porsche Cayenne, carrying Su Ningjing, Ah Mei, and granny along the winding mountain road. They welcomed the warm sunlight and kept moving forward.

nThey saw patches of greenery, flocks of birds, and a babbling stream…

nWhen the sun was high in the sky, a low house hidden in the depths of the mountain finally appeared in their field of vision.

n“We’re back!” Ah Mei shouted happily.

nA big yellow dog sitting in front of the house seemed to have noticed them. It barked excitedly and ran over happily.

nAfter Lin Fan got out of the car, he breathed in the unique fragrance of the air and looked at the mountains that pierced into the clouds in the distance. There were layers of green forests, streams, and waterfalls that fell from the sky…

nBeautiful!

nThis was the unique beauty of nature!

nHe felt relaxed and comfortable. It was as if his body had been cleansed by nature, becoming ethereal.

nAt this moment, the phone in Lin Fan’s pocket vibrated.

nIt was 12 pm, and the red packets were here!

nDing! Congratulations, you’ve received five yuan.

nDing! Congratulations, you’ve received 1,000 yuan.

n…

nDing! Congratulations, you’ve obtained top-grade coffee.

nDing! Congratulations, you’ve received 1,999 yuan.

n…

nHe received a total of 42,121 yuan from today’s red packets.

nLin Fan did not mind at all.

nHis gaze fell on the top-grade coffee beans.

n“This premium coffee species can grow rapidly in different environments, thus producing fragrant coffee beans.”

nSeeing this…

nLin Fan’s face revealed a strange look.

nTop-grade coffee?

nPlanting coffee beans?

nThe rewards were getting stranger and stranger.

nLin Fan shook his head and turned his attention back to the sign-in system.

n“Sign in!”

nDing! Congratulations, you’ve obtained Expert-Level Planting Technique.

nExpert-Level Planting Technique: Focus on farming and sweat like rain. This will show the true colors of a man, triggering supreme charm.

nLin Fan blinked his eyes.

nHe had just obtained top-grade coffee beans, and now he had obtained an expert-level planting technique?

nCould this be… Was he supposed to become an outstanding farmer?

nAt this moment, Su Ningjing took a handful of red dates. They looked very delicious.

nLin Fan asked, “Did you grow these?”

n“Yes.” Su Ningjing nodded repeatedly.

n“Then I’m going to have a good taste of them.” Lin Fan smiled.

nThen, Lin Fan opened the trunk and prepared to take out a bottle of mineral water to wash the dates.

nAt this moment, he realized that there was a big bag of coffee beans in the trunk.

nHe immediately understood that this must be the top-grade coffee beans that he had just received from the red packet.

nLin Fan washed the red dates and threw them into his mouth.

nFragrant, crispy, and sweet!

nLin Fan praised, “Mhm! The taste is really good! I didn’t expect that you could plant date trees here.”

n“Not only date trees, but we also have orange trees, grapefruit trees, peach trees, and plum trees…There’s a lot of land over here that can be planted,” Su Ningjing said.

nLin Fan could not help but look in the direction that Su Ningjing was pointing.

nOn the 30-degree slope, there was a large patch of weeds. There were no trees or mountains around to block the sun. It was indeed a good place to grow crops.
