Chapter 410: Chapter 360: The Number 1 Person in the Art World Wants to Treat Us to a Meal?

’This Master Liu Bai is quite an interesting character,’ he thought to himself.

Just then, Guyi noticed a fish pond not far ahead by the roadside. "Is that a new fish pond?" he asked.

Li You nodded. "I figured I’d build a pond and raise some fish to liven up the restaurant."

Guyi nodded. "A good idea. Are there any fish in it yet?"

Li You replied, "There are. I just put them in yesterday."

"Come on, let’s go take a look." Guyi was very interested.

Li You nodded. "Elder Gu, Elder Liu, this way, please!"

The three of them walked over to the fish pond together.

Liu Bai was also very interested in the fish in the pond.

When they reached the edge of the pond, both Guyi and Liu Bai’s eyes lit up. These fish were quite impressive!

Wait... there were even two enormous Blood Red Dragon Fish.

These two fish were something else entirely.

Liu Bai said, "These are the two finest specimens of Blood Red Dragon I’ve ever seen. Boss Li You, your place is truly full of surprises."

Guyi added, "Old Liu is right. It really is surprising. Fish like these are a once-in-a-lifetime find."

Li You smiled. "I just got lucky to get these two."

Both Liu Bai and Guyi nodded. One certainly needed luck to acquire fish like these.

The pond was quite nice.

Afterward, the three of them arrived at the restaurant’s entrance.

Guyi said, "Boss Li You, we’ll have two large bowls of beef noodles and one order of Nine-Turned Pork Intestines."

"Huh?" Li You was a bit surprised. "Elder Gu, isn’t it a little early to be eating a meal?"

Guyi waved his hands repeatedly. "Not at all, not at all. We arrived in Changxi County Town last night and took a taxi straight here first thing this morning. So, this is our breakfast."

’So that’s how it is.’

Li You smiled. "Then you must be starving. I’ll go get it ready. It won’t take long."

"Go on, go on."

Li You walked into the kitchen and started cooking the noodles and the Nine-Turned Pork Intestines at the same time.

Li You was delighted that Guyi had ordered the Nine-Turned Pork Intestines right away.

Soon, the two large bowls of beef noodles and the order of Nine-Turned Pork Intestines were ready.

He served them to Guyi and Liu Bai.

Guyi’s eyes went wide with delight when he saw the Nine-Turned Pork Intestines. In terms of "color" and appearance, it had already surpassed every version of the dish he had ever eaten.

He couldn’t wait to taste it.

Liu Bai was slightly stunned. He said, "Old Gu, Boss Li You’s culinary skills are truly on another level! I’ve had Nine-Turned Pork Intestines countless times, but I have a feeling this is going to be the best."

Guyi laughed. "You’re finally seeing the food here for the first time. Getting to eat Nine-Turned Pork Intestines on your first visit, you’re a lucky man."

Then, they both picked up a piece of the intestine and put it in their mouths.

Soon, even Guyi couldn’t help but get a little excited.

These days, only three things could get Guyi excited: food, wine, and tea.

Guyi was now absolutely certain: this was, without a doubt, the most delicious Nine-Turned Pork Intestines he had ever eaten in his entire life.

He was also almost one hundred percent sure that this was the best Nine-Turned Pork Intestines in the world.

Boss Li You really could make the best Nine-Turned Pork Intestines in the world.

Guyi wasn’t surprised, but he still couldn’t contain his awe and excitement.

Liu Bai, at this moment, was even more shocked. He hadn’t expected the young Boss Li You’s cooking skills to have reached such an incredibly high level.

The flavor of this Nine-Turned Pork Intestines had already surpassed what a Special Chef specializing in Lu Cuisine could make.

It was truly unbelievable!

Both Liu Bai and Guyi had eaten Nine-Turned Pork Intestines personally prepared by Special Chefs who specialized in Lu Cuisine.

The flavor of those was, of course, outstanding—considered the pinnacle of what Nine-Turned Pork Intestines could be.

But now, it could no longer be called the pinnacle of Nine-Turned Pork Intestines.

Because it couldn’t compare to the dish in front of them.

Now, *this* was the pinnacle of Nine-Turned Pork Intestines.

If the Nine-Turned Pork Intestines were this good, then maybe the other dishes here were also, as Guyi claimed, all the best in the world.

When Guyi had said that before, Liu Bai, while believing him, still harbored some doubts in his heart.

But now, his doubts were almost entirely gone.

He could only marvel that someone as young as Li You possessed such culinary skill.

Guyi glanced at Liu Bai and said with a chuckle, "Old Liu, don’t just stand there looking shocked. Try the beef noodles."

Liu Bai nodded. Without a word, he picked up a clump of noodles and ate them.

Unsurprisingly, it was incredibly delicious—even better than he had imagined.

’These beef noodles are divine.’

He kept eating, one mouthful after another, unable to stop.

Seeing this, Guyi said again, "Hey, Old Liu, don’t just eat! Give us a review!"

Liu Bai paused and said, "I’ve lived for over half a century and never had beef noodles this good. What is there to review?"

Then, he went back to eating.

Guyi smiled faintly and also resumed eating.

’Nine-Turned Pork Intestines with a side of beef noodles... not bad at all. I’ll have the same thing tomorrow morning.’

’Or maybe with Yangchun Noodles instead.’

Soon, the Nine-Turned Pork Intestines were gone, and both men had finished their beef noodles.

Liu Bai said with great satisfaction, "Excellent. This trip wasn’t a waste."

Guyi said, "And you have me to thank. Otherwise, where would you ever find such delicious beef noodles? Or such amazing Nine-Turned Pork Intestines?"

"Speaking of Nine-Turned Pork Intestines," Liu Bai said, "Old Gu, it looks like the best version is no longer in your Lu Province."

Guyi smiled and said, "What does that matter? Not only does it not matter, it actually makes me happy. It means that Nine-Turned Pork Intestines is a truly successful dish. Otherwise, Boss Li You wouldn’t have bothered to study it and learn to make it so perfectly."
