I Really Am Not The Lord of Demon Chapter 130

Ling Pingan carried the ingredients he had bought home.

Then, he took a bucket and poured all the crayfish into it.

These crayfish had already been processed. The veins of the crayfish had been removed, and the back had been cut open.

He took the bottle of white wine he had bought at a roadside stall and poured it all into the bucket.

Then, he took a few pieces of perilla leaves that he had bought and placed them into the bucket.

“Let's marinate it for two hours first!” After doing all these things, he placed the bucket in the shade of the balcony.

He let the crayfish ferment fully here.

That was Ling Pingan's secret recipe that he would not pass on to others.

After marinating the crayfish through this process, the meat would be tender, and the shell would be crispy. The flesh would not age no matter how it was fried or cooked!

Moreover, there would be also a tint of the aroma of wine when eating them. It was especially good!

Thinking of the aroma of wine, Ling Pingan recalled the edible alcohol additives that he had received two days ago. He opened the refrigerator and took out one crystal from it. Then, he casually threw it into the bucket that contained the crayfish and closed the lid, leaving it to continue to ferment.

And the scene happened to be captured by an HD camera that was newly installed at a faraway intersection.

Everyone in the monitoring room gulped.

Because on the screen, they saw the target threw a colorful gem-like crystal into a seemingly ordinary bucket.

Immediately, the liquid in the bucket began to boil.

The dense psionic mist wrapped the entire bucket.

Even though they were hundreds of miles away, the people in the monitoring room couldn't help but drool.

Because they knew that the target had bought crayfish and spices.

Apparently, he was preparing to cook a delicacy.

It was the favorite summer delicacy of the people of the Federal Empire, crayfish.

“The crayfish he cooked…” Situ He couldn't help but think, “I wonder what it tastes like…”

Just by looking at the dense psionic mist, Situ He knew that this must be a priceless treasure.

Perhaps it had the characteristics of various legendary immortal pills and divine medicines.

At this moment, there were changes in the surveillance.

Everyone saw the target went up to the rooftop on the third floor.

Then, he seemed to open the door and start to move something out of the door.

After a while, everyone saw clearly that it was a round muffled oven.

Then, he took out a rectangular table.

Ling Pingan moved out all the kitchen utensils that were hidden on the third floor to the rooftop.

Then, he laid on the ground lazily.

It wasn't because he was tired!

He still had the strength to move things.

It was pure laziness!

“Every time she comes back, everything is chaotic…” he said, “Fortunately, she only comes back once or twice a year!”

After laying lazily on the ground for ten minutes, he slowly took out his phone and dialed the takeaway number of Michiko Chiba's house.

“Hello, this is Ling Pingan…”

“Yes…”

“Chiba chan, please choose a piece of five-pound Fusang beef for me… Hmm… The marbled ones…”

After hanging up the phone, Ling Pingan felt sorry for his wallet for a second.

However, when he thought of the succulent and tender beef, he became happy again.

Speaking of which, it had been a long time since he had eaten the steak he made, so he missed it a little.

Twenty minutes later, the Fusang girl, who came by riding a small electric scooter, delivered a large piece of Fusang meat to Ling Pingan.

“Ling-san, this is the meat from our new stock!” She said happily, “I know you want it, so I immediately delivered it to you!”

Ling Pingan looked at the piece of meat in front of him and was delighted.

That was a piece of top-grade beef!

It could be seen from the marbled texture!

“How much is it?” He quickly asked.

“You just need to give me 500!” Michiko Chiba said, “I'll just charge you only the cost price!”

She had sent over the top-grade Tajima in Fusang. Only in the Federal Empire could one buy a Tajima at such a price.

That was because the federal empire and the Fusang Kingdom had signed the Agricultural Aid Subsidy Treaty.

According to this special treaty between the two countries, the Fusang Kingdom promised to give priority to exporting the best quality agricultural products to the Federal Empire.

The Federal Empire promised to subsidize all the agricultural products in Fusang, and a top-grade product like Tajima was subsidized by more than half of their selling prices!

It sounded impossible for the importing countries to subsidize the exporting countries.

But considering that the industrial capacity of Fusang was almost zero.

All their industrial and daily necessities were imported from the federal empire.

Then that was understandable.

The Federal Empire willingly agreed to trade industrial products for high-quality agricultural products.

And the people of Fusang also benefited.

They didn't have to develop heavy industry and could directly import high-quality and cheap industrial products from the Federal Empire.

At the same time, they could maximize their agricultural and tourism advantages.

The people of Fusang could have a good life by just relying on agricultural exports and income from tourism, shipping, and ports.

They were even able to keep their greeneries. It was needless to say how happy they were!

That kind of mutually beneficial economic cooperation model made countless foreigners drool with envy.

Unfortunately, not every foreigner could be like Fusang and have more than 2,000 years of friendly exchanges with the Federal Empire.

Outsiders could only be envious of such a close-knit friendship.

Ling Pingan passed the money to Michiko Chiba through a letter. He took the piece of beef and walked upstairs to handle it.

The main task was to remove the excess fascia and fat before sprinkling it with self-made seasoning salt.

The salt was ground by Ling Pingan last year during the Chinese New Year.

It was ground with sea salt, black pepper, and Sichuan peppercorns.

It was the most suitable for curing meat!

After the meat was cured, Ling Pingan put it into the refrigerator.

“Refrigerate it for three hours!” Ling Pingan said and washed his hands. Then he walked downstairs, sat down at the counter, and continued his battle in the canyon.

Two hours later, the alarm clock that he had set rang.

Ling Pingan stretched and looked at the time. It was almost eight o'clock.

“Let's fry the crayfish!” Ling Pingan picked up the kitten, Bastet, and walked up the stairs to the balcony. He opened the lid of the bucket and looked at the crayfish that had been marinated in the bucket.

He picked one up and observed it. He nodded his head in satisfaction.

These crayfish had been marinated exceptionally well.

The flesh of the crayfish was firm, and the shell of the crayfish was slightly soft. It was time to fry it in the oil.

That was to shape it and enhance the fragrance.

Meow!

The little kitten, Bastet, could not wait to taste the crayfish.

It gently rubbed against Ling Pingan's trousers. Its small head was filled with cuteness.

“Little guy, don't be impatient!” Ling Pingan comforted it. “I'll let you eat it after I fry it!”

“Otherwise, there will be parasites!”

Meow!

The little kitten answered obediently.

Its amber-colored cat eyes reflected the crayfish in its owner's hand.

The dense psionic energy wrapped around the crayfish meat and a faint light flowed around the shell of the crayfish like a crystal.

Not only did the little cat see it, but the camera on the balcony had also captured it!

“This is a crayfish?” Xia Ping felt like he was going crazy.

“Is this a freaking crayfish?”

Situ He gulped hard.

“This is a work of art!” He muttered to himself, “It should be sent to the Federal Art Museum for Exhibition!”

If possible, Situ He was even willing to cling to the owner of the bookstore, hoping to get the qualification to participate in this feast.

He was willing, even if he only gets to eat the leftovers!

Because he already knew that the owner of the bookstore not only bought crayfish but also bought a large piece of beef from the Fusang Fox Girl!

The best Fusang Tajima's ribeye!

The crayfish, with a little marination he did, had become like this.

What about the beef?

The best Tajima ribeye?

Situ He didn't know, but he was looking forward to it!

Ling Pingan carried a bucket full of crayfish to the kitchen, poured out the crayfish, cleaned them, and threw them in one by one into a sieve.

Soon, it was two sieves filled with crayfish.

The Kitten, Bastet, was drooling when it saw this.

It whimpered and rubbed itself against Ling Pingan's pants.

“No hurry. No hurry.” Ling Ping comforted it. “Let me fry it first!”

He took out a big gulp of lard from the kitchen counter that had been boiled last year.

He liked to use lard whenever he cooked.

Because vegetable oil would have a strange smell.

Moreover, the lard was especially suitable for cooking and frying.

Of course, it was also slightly unhealthy.

But…

To be honest, the little side effect could be ignored.

Because compared to oil, sugar was actually more harmful to health!

But…

Sugary drinks were still the best-selling drinks in the Federal Empire.

For the sake of delicacy, the appropriate risks still had to be borne.

Carrying the frozen lard and crayfish, Ling Pingan walked up to the rooftop on the third floor.

The Kitten, Bastet followed closely behind and quickly caught up.

When it crossed the sill, for some reason, the little guy started to compete with the sapling that Ling Pingan kept at the door.

Meow!

It roared and threatened the sapling in the plastic basin.

Ling Pingan turned around and saw this scene. He could not help but burst into laughter and said, “Little guy, you're extremely cute!”

He didn't care about the little fella. Instead, he turned on the stove, put in the firewood, and lit it up.

Then, he set up a flat pan on the stove, dug out all the lard he brought, and poured it in.

Under the high temperature, the lard began to melt, emitting an intoxicating oil fragrance.

When the oil in the pan began to boil and smoke, Ling Pingan used a sieve to scoop out some dried crayfish and put them into the oil pot.

Sizzle, the crayfish began to roll in the high temperature.

Soon, their entire body was golden yellow, and the fragrance filled the rooftop.

Ling Pingan did not fry it for long. In ten seconds, he scooped up the sieve and placed the fried crayfish on the plate.

At this time, he saw that the kitten, Bastet was still at the door, competing with the small sapling in the plastic basin.

He immediately smiled. “Silly kitten!”

He picked up a fried crayfish, walked over, and placed it in front of the silly kitten.

The kitten, Bastet stopped caring about the small tree sapling in the plastic basin at once.

It picked up the crayfish and hid behind the door as if it was afraid that someone would snatch it. It gobbled it up.

It was as if it was eating the most delicious thing in the world!

A few drones were circling in the air hundreds of meters away.

The HD camera captured the crayfish on a plate from all angles.

The golden shell of the crayfish was like a gem, shining brightly.

The dense spiritual energy surrounding the crayfish had disappeared.

But if one looked carefully, they would know that the dense spiritual energy was now like colorful rays of light, winding around every fiber of the crayfish meat.

Even though they were hundreds of meters away, the shrimp meat fibers were like gemstones, flashing with a crazy color on the drone's camera.

“Even just eating one…” Xia Ping said, “I'm afraid that it can awaken an ordinary person's inspiration and make him an extraordinary human!”

That was certain!

Even a blind man could see the psionic energy contained in the crayfish on the screen.

Therefore, the question arose. What would happen if an extraordinary ate it?

“I'm afraid…” Situ He said, “People who are not strong enough don't even have the right to eat them!”

He said, “Just like ordinary people, if they eat vegetarian food all the time, and suddenly ate fish and meat. If the consequences are light, they will have diarrhea, and if it's heavy, they will die!”

“I'm afraid that this kind of psionic food has a similar effect!”

“If an ordinary person doesn't have enough strength, I'm afraid that eating just one will cause problems!”

Xia Ping listened and asked curiously, “General, in your opinion, who is qualified to eat that?”

“At least someone with the cultivation of a major general!” Situ He said reservedly.

“Of course, Director Xia, you should be able to eat one without any major problems!”

Ling Pingan hummed as he fried the crayfish.

In about an hour, he finished frying all the crayfish.

The kitten Bastian came and took a few more crayfish in between.

Then, it probably ate too full and fell asleep at his feet.

When Ling Pingan found it, it was already sleeping soundly!

“Little guy!” Ling Pingan picked it up and placed it by the plastic basin at the door.

Then, he put all the fried crayfish away and put it in the refrigerator to be refrigerated.

“It's time to prepare the roast beef!” Ling Pingan said.

He took out the marinated beef from the refrigerator and walked to the rooftop.

At this time, the charcoal fire of the slow grill was almost ready.

He untied the beef and sprinkled some crayfish oil that was leftover in the pate when he fried the crayfish onto the beef.

Then, he threw the beef into the slow grill, poked a thermometer that he had prepared beforehand into the beef, and closed the lid.

“Roast it slowly!” Ling Pingan said.

The barbecue method he used was the braising method that had been passed down from the Beisong.

It was particular about stewing at low temperatures for a long time.

It made the beef crisp and juicy, but it would not age.

Normally, that type of roasting method was used to roast large pieces of meat.

The average roasting and waiting time were at least ten hours!

In the night sky, the drone hovered silently.

The people in the surveillance room wished that they could crawl out of the screen and onto the rooftop.

Because the beef under the drone's camera was like the legendary dragon meat. On the beautiful marbled texture, yellow, red, blue, green, and purple… psionic energy of all colors swirled ceaselessly.

The grains of salt on the surface of the beef were like stars in the sky, shining with a lustrous luster that made them drool.

Even the raw meat…

Was probably comparable to the world's top-tier spiritual medicine!

If it was cooked, how far would it go?

No one knew, but everyone was looking forward to it.

Even if they just looked at it, even if they couldn't eat it, they would still feel very satisfied.

Situ He and the others finally understood why their juniors liked to watch videos of food bloggers.

That kind of extreme rendering of beauty and extreme presentation of delicacies.

Just looking at it was equivalent to tasting it.

Just thinking about it made every cell celebrate!

If they tasted it…

How much enjoyment would that be? And what kind of experience would that be?

“If possible, I'm willing to use all my assets in exchange for an invitation to participate in this feast…” Xia Ping muttered to himself.

Xia Ping was wealthy.

After all, the Blackguards served the country and were people with special powers.

Therefore, they had to make them rich.

And legally rich!

Xia Ping, for example, had at least tens of millions of wealth.

“If he is willing to sell the invitation…” Situ He could not help but shatter the director's imagination. “I'm afraid that all the rich people in the entire federal empire are willing to exchange all their wealth for it!”

What was money?

Could it be compared to such a super grand banquet?

Those who were allowed to participate were those who were qualified to sit at his banquet.

Probably, there were very few people in the entire world.

And the qualification was itself priceless!

Not to mention the value of the banquet itself!

In front of him, everything in the secular world was meaningless.

Thinking of that, Situ He could not help but sigh. “Why didn't I discover that Koi earlier?”

If he could have discovered his abnormality earlier, he could have arranged for his daughter to get close to him. If that was the case, how would the young lady of the Chu family get such an advantage!
