Chapter 213 Setting sail
Chapter 214 Set sail
"Woo——"
A long whistle sounded, and Qin Lang, who was sitting in his room on the cruise ship, felt a slight shaking under his feet, and couldn't help but cast his eyes towards the moving scenery outside the window.
The ship set off.
"Let's pack our things." He smiled as he opened the suitcase and took out the clothes and other sundries packed inside. "This journey will take several days."
Dan Bao and La La were filled with novelty, and started to get busy following Qin Lang.
After packing their luggage, one person and two souls walked out of the room and came to the deck of the ship.
There were already many boat passengers standing there in groups of twos and threes, sometimes chatting, sometimes looking at the rippling Xiayun River all around.
Qin Lang took the free snacks and drinks from the waiter on the ship, leaned alone on the guardrail on the side of the deck, and looked at the scene in front of him in a daze.
Xiayun River is known as the mother river of Tianhua Prefecture. Although there is another river called Dulu River in the northeast of Tianhua Prefecture, the radiation range and influence of the two are quite different.
Standing on the deck and looking down, Qin Lang could clearly see the occasional swimming fish and foaming waves under the Xiayun River.
He had never seen such clear river water in his previous life.
Dan Bao and La La on the side have never been so close to Xiayunjiang. At this moment, the two little guys put their heads together and muttered without knowing what they were talking about.
Suddenly, a flash of silver under the water surface flashed in Qin Lang's field of vision.
When he saw the silver color clearly, Qin Lang's eyes widened.
What a big carp, at least one circle bigger than ordinary carps!
Moreover, the scales on the carp's body were all silver-white, unlike the scales on the back of the common carp, which were ink-colored.
"Look there!"
He quickly motioned to Dan Bao and La La on the side to look in that direction.
As if alerted by the sound on the deck, the silver carp, which had approached the ship out of curiosity, flicked its tail and quickly disappeared from Qin Lang's sight.
Dan Bao and La La happened to see each other disappear.
"Gulu!"
I'll catch it!
Dan Bao volunteered.
"Forget it." Qin Lang shook his head, "It has gone far away, and such carp should be very rare. I think it is a blessing to see it."
"Yes, seeing silver carp on the Xiayun River is a symbol of luck." A voice came from the side.
"Mr. Li Hong." Qin Lang blinked.
"I haven't seen you for a while." Li Hong pushed up his glasses, walked to Qin Lang and looked at the river, "Luo Hui told me yesterday about your deeds during this period."
"When I tasted that steamed seabass, I thought you were quite talented in cooking, but that's all." He turned to Qin Lang with some emotion, "I really didn't expect that you are so talented in cooking." It can get to that point.”
"I still have a lot to learn." Qin Lang said modestly.
"It's good not to be dazzled by the honors you have already received." Li Hong showed an appreciative look, "If we follow the rules of the previous Yuyu Banquet, you and I may have a chance to compete on the same stage."
"However, this year's Yuanyu Banquet has specially prepared a stage for young people to show off, but there is no such opportunity."
"If I really want to compete with Yuling Chef, who is good at cooking fish dishes in Quanming Jingzhou, I have no chance of winning." Qin Lang spread his hands.
"Not necessarily." Li Hong was obviously very confident in Qin Lang's cooking skills. He did not continue the topic and changed his tone, "Speaking of which, I just heard about a cooking exchange between young Yuling chefs. , you might be interested.”
"What kind of cooking exchange?" Qin Lang's eyes lit up.
"As you know, the final destination of the 'Banlan' cruise ship is Yueyu Lake, and the Yueyu Banquet will start in more than ten days."
Li Hong paused slightly, "Putting aside this point, Mingjing State is also a place that all Yuling chefs who are good at aquatic cooking aspire to."
Qin Lang nodded slightly.
Among the ingredients that he can redeem with points from cooking competitions, many seafood and river fish are produced in the Whale State.
Once he enters the Whale State, the redemption list will be dynamically adjusted.
The points required for redeeming ingredients produced in Mingjing State will be reduced, and you don’t even need to use points, you can buy them directly.
The value of some ingredients in Tianhua Prefecture will increase accordingly.
After all, the transportation costs for foreign ingredients must be high to ensure the best condition.
Therefore, Mingjing State is a very good choice for Yulingchu who is good at aquatic cooking.
"Because of this, many of the tourists on the 'Banlan' are Yuling chefs and are good at cooking aquatic products." Li Hong paused, "Some of them have also been invited to the Yueyu Banquet. Some just go and watch it as an audience.”
"And these Yuling chefs are about to have a small cooking exchange on the cruise ship." Li Hong smiled, "Because I was invited to the Yuanyu Banquet, the organizer took the initiative to find me, Mr. Zhou Qing That's true too, but he wasn't involved."
"When I learned about this cooking exchange event, I thought of you."
"Mr. Li Hong, thank you." Qin Lang showed a grateful expression, "But I am not invited, can I still participate?"
"The organizer said that this is an exchange with no threshold and open to all cooks who are interested in cooking with aquatic ingredients." Li Hong spread his hands, "In this case, I think you can enter without being invited."
"I see." Qin Lang smiled and said, "I just happened to be having some free time on the cruise ship. If I can participate, I would also like to take a look."
Seeing Qin Lang agreeing to the invitation, Li Hong nodded slightly.
There was still about an hour before the cooking exchange started. After chatting on the deck for a while, the two of them walked towards the top of the cabin together.
There is an open-air venue there, which is currently reserved as a venue for culinary exchange activities.
The surroundings were decorated with exquisite decorations, and the words "Aquatic Ingredients Cooking Exchange Conference" were written on the banner hanging at the scene.
Although it was just an event organized by the Yuling Chefs themselves, it looked quite formal.
Qin Lang nodded slightly and looked at the other Yuling chefs who had arrived with a bit of curiosity.
Some of them also boarded the ship from the pier in Dongxia City, but more of them were Yu Lingchu who boarded the ship at the pier further upstream before the "Banlan" cruise ship arrived in Dongxia City. They came from other cities.
Therefore, everything you look at is full of unfamiliar faces.
While Qin Lang was looking at everyone in the venue, other Yuling chefs who had already arrived were also observing Li Hong and Qin Lang who had just entered.
One of the girls' eyes fell on Qin Lang, with a bit of surprise in her eyes. After careful inspection, the surprise turned into surprise.
She stepped forward quickly and spoke words of affirmation in a skeptical tone.
"You are a traveler, right?"
