My Restaurant's Guests are All Abnormal

Chapter 435: Chapter 295: What Is the Use of Sun Mushroom After All?

There’s this dish made with pig’s blood that’s known as pig’s blood balls. In some places, it’s also called pig’s blood mush or blood mush tofu and is a part of the Hunan cuisine.

Chen Ze remembered having eaten it before, but he couldn’t recall the specifics.

"But I don’t have any fresh pig’s blood..." Chen Ze was a bit bald-headed, the pig’s blood balls sounded simple enough, but the preparation was quite meticulous.

For example, pig’s blood is generally used fresh, uncoagulated, and then you have to use local tofu, selecting only the softest kind.

That’s not all, the other ingredients also need to be carefully chosen, and then from preparation to baking, it also takes over twenty days. Hurrying the baking process or skimping on it wouldn’t work, as you wouldn’t get the best state of pig’s blood balls.

"Thinking about it that way, even if I use Quadruple Speed to make these pig’s blood balls, it would still take about five or six days, huh?" Chen Ze frowned, although he planned to make the pig’s blood balls, he hadn’t anticipated it being this troublesome. freeweɓnovel.cøm

"Manager, manager!" Betty suddenly burst in, her face full of existential dread.

"What’s up?" Chen Ze curiously looked at Betty, wondering why she had come in again.

"I want to ask you a question." Betty looked at Chen Ze solemnly.

"Yeah, go ahead." Chen Ze rolled his eyes; every time Betty said this, it was definitely not going to be anything important.

Inspired, Chen Ze suddenly had a bowl of pig’s blood in his hand. He decided to first make a batch of pig’s blood balls according to the recipe to practice and familiarize himself with the general method for this dish.

However, Chen Ze wasn’t too confident about the quality of the pig’s blood balls made this way.

"It’s like this, Lady Lafra just told me recently she’s been playing a game, but there’s something she’s unsure about, and I can’t answer her question." Betty had barely finished when Chen Ze put down the pig’s blood and the bowl and turned his head seriously.

If it was a question from Lady Lafra, Chen Ze felt he needed to focus on providing an answer, although he was a bit puzzled why Lafra didn’t just come to him directly with the question, instead of asking Betty.

"Manager... your change in attitude is a bit fast..." Betty said, her eyes vacant as she had seen all of Chen Ze’s expressions.

"Hurry up, Lafra rarely asks questions." Chen Ze urged Betty.

"...It’s like this, Lady Lafra asked me why the names of the warships in this world are so strange." Betty’s words made Chen Ze pause; strange warship names?

Could it be that Lafra accidentally clicked on Chen Ze’s old hidden folder? He remembered there was a compressed file in there named something like ’Island Wind’s Tragedy’...

Chen Ze shook his head, what was he thinking about? Besides, he had deleted that hidden folder long ago.

"Ahem... Strange names? I think they’re pretty normal, no issues." Chen Ze coughed a few times, alleviating his awkwardness.

"Huh? But I found that name really weird when I heard it." Betty was serious; she had been dumbfounded when she first heard the name.

"What name?" Chen Ze was curious and asked.

"Lady Lafra said the name of that warship was ’Shock My Mom." Betty held her chin with both hands, making Chen Ze’s mouth twitch. She was imitating the commander again.

But Chen Ze had heard Betty’s words; Shock... My Mom?

"Huh?" Chen Ze was completely baffled, feeling his expression was now almost the same as that of Nick Young with the meme face.

"Exactly, that expression, I felt the same way," Betty suddenly nodded, her face just as puzzled moments ago.

"Wait a minute..." Chen Ze waved his hand, remembering that he had once downloaded a game like that after a certain meme became wildly popular.

Furthermore, the game was related to that name, which Chen Ze remembered distinctly.

"Is there also a battleship in the game called ’Shock My Mom For a Whole Year’?" Chen Ze asked calmly.

"Yeah, Manager, how did you know?" Betty blinked, knowing how much she wanted to comment when she first heard the name.

The corner of Chen Ze’s mouth twitched; it really was that game. But wasn’t Warship World supposed to be an online game? freewebnøvel.coɱ

However, Chen Ze didn’t pay it much mind, perhaps Lafra played it when she had internet access.

"Actually, that was a mistranslation in the game, which should have been corrected," Chen Ze explained, since that meme was still quite popular on the internet and it showed just how unreliable machine translation can be.

After all, translating the French tier 8 battleship Terrible Number as ’Shock My Mom’ does take some talent...

After sending away the overly curious Betty, Chen Ze returned to his pig’s blood meatballs, making a simple one and then beginning to bake it.

"Quadruple Speed for a day should do it, that’s roughly four days then. But I’d still prefer those legendary kitchen tools, they’re so convenient," Chen Ze shook his head; it’s human nature to always want more.

Even though the Quadruple Speed was already very useful, Chen Ze still wanted something better.

"Manager, I’d like to pay," Stan wiped his mouth, feeling very satisfied after devouring many servings of Buffet. If Undead had stomachs, his might have had issues.

"Alright," Chen Ze came out, Lafra had returned to the second floor already.

"These are Sun Mushrooms." Stan pulled out three mushrooms and handed them to Chen Ze.

"What are these usually used for?" Chen Ze was curious, as he had received quite a few Sun Mushrooms recently; it seemed like time to study them.

"Usually? My chef uses them to cook dishes, solely for that purpose," Stan thought about it, only recalling that particular use.

"Alright, you’re welcome to come again," Chen Ze waved goodbye to Stan.

After seeing off Stan, Chen Ze took a Sun Mushroom out of the grey Space Stone and placed it on the cutting board.

"I use Moonlight Mushrooms mainly as a seasoning now, but since this one’s used for actual dishes, it probably isn’t meant for seasoning," Chen Ze took out a knife and gently made a cut, planning to taste it by roasting a small piece first.

However, as soon as he started cutting, an extremely bright light burst forth from the inside, instantly illuminating the entire kitchen.

"I... I bloody hell..." Chen Ze rubbed his eyes in pain, feeling as if he’d emerged from a night at the internet cafe and stared directly at the sun.

If it hadn’t been for the Magic Circle protecting his eyes in time, Chen Ze would have had to consider going to the hospital.
