Chapter 219: Noise (2)
The Food Processor's been interrupted their silence between them with a bell of completion. Eight lobster tails were printed and sealed in the packaging waiting for Zhang Qin Feng's consumption. From the look, size, and color of the artificial lobster shell, a gaze is all a person needs to differentiate this from regular lobsters.
"Feng… This color and shape… Don't tell me you're trying to come up with something outrageous again?" Wang Yufei served the vegetables evenly on two different plates and placed them in a food warmer.
She set the grilling stove on automatic cooking before going to Zhang Qin Feng.
Standing beside Zhang Qin Feng to clarifies her suspicion, she soon realized that she got it correct again. Her man is trying to make something outrageous again. It seems that creating an artificial A6 beef that was significantly valued in Han Country wasn't enough to satisfy his wildest dream.
This time, Zhang Qin Feng went ahead and done something more outrageous than before. If the A6 Steak was the signature product of Han Country, then this Jewel Lobster Tail would be a level above the beef.
This product was not a mere signature product of a country but a union. It was a border-controlled food where only licensed holders approved by the Democratic Union can serve and sell them. And even with a license, they're limited to a certain quota to ensure the lobster's species were not endangered.
In the whole Dongcheng, only three restaurants had the license to serve them. And amongst the three, one was located in the city of Shuiyue. They're lucky enough to reserve a table to taste the dish, but that's all Zhang Qin Feng needed to let Liam creates it.
"FENG!" Wang Yufei was pulling his shirt as her emotion went into turmoil.
"Wh - What's wrong?" Zhang Qin Feng was shocked by Wang Yufei's outbursts of emotion.
"Are you trying to start a war? Is that what you're trying to do now?" Wang Yufei asked.
"War? What does food have anything to do with war?" Zhang Qin Feng was puzzled by her meaning for putting war and food together in the discussion. But from Wang Yufei's serious expression, she doesn't look joking either.
"You don't know… But the Jewel Lobster species is the national treasure of the Democratic Union. Copying their national treasure would be like blasphemy if this was spread out by the public." Wang Yufei said.
As a restaurateur, knowing the history of food is a must. While the food was made for the sake of being eaten, there's numerous philosophy hidden within the flavor. It was said that once, the ancient king slaughters the entire city for the sake of having enough human blood to marinate the meat believed to be delicacies.
The link between religion, food, belief, and tradition is was crazier than what people thought.
"And what will they do if they caught us having an imitation of their national treasure?" Zhang Qin Feng smiled and hugged Wang Yufei's waist. She was supposed to feel happy that she got embraced by Zhang Qin Feng this way, but the worries in her mind made her unable to process this kind of feeling right now.
"If they decided to handle this calmly, we might get sued for disrespect, having to attend their international court for illegally imitating their product without prior approval, and so on. Worst case, we could be banned from their country and would affect the distribution of Jewel Lobster Species in our country."
"Speaking about this, you have to know that it's illegal to breed, keep, or domesticate the Jewel Lobster Species. Anyone caught or reported or doing so would be caught by international police under the law of illegally distributing national content."
"And if they're going take us seriously, we might get sanction from the Democratic Union entirely and stopping all trades between Dongcheng and their continent. This won't end here. If they decided to make a move on us, we might get restricted in all industry forms." Wang Yufei looked severe when she talked about the latter part of what she knows.
The severity of this matter is just like how the heaven palace sends out all their soldiers to catch the heavenly monkey for wrecking the jade empress's tea party.
Wang Yufei was somewhat losing breath from speaking so many things at once. However, Zhang Qin Feng still seems unable to understand how bad the situation is where the imitation Jewel Lobster Tail was distributed and known.
"Did you not listen to what I just said?" Wang Yufei asked. She had a feeling that Zhang Qin Feng was not paying attention to what she just said.
"The Jewel Lobster product cannot be distributed. The consequences from this are not something a small country like our Dongcheng can bear!" she added.
"Then, all we need is to make our Dongcheng better and bigger until we can manage this." Zhang Qin Feng chuckled as he tried to simplify this matter to something he could understand easily.
"Let's serve the food. We'll have to try the taste of this product and see how close it is to the real thing." Zhang Qin Feng singlehandedly lifted Wang Yufei to where she was cooking earlier before putting her down.
He then removed the two perfectly grilled A6 Artificial Steaks from the grill. He exchanged the tray with two artificial Lobster Tails and placed them into the oven to get it cooked. As for the remaining six tails, Zhang Qin Feng left two to be eaten raw.
The remaining four will be prepared differently.
Two lobster tails were cut into thin slices to be stirred with some wine sauce, and the two remaining were to be made into bits before mixing into an instant spicy broth.
It was a table of imitation of imported foods. If this were to be served outside, 10,000 dollars would be an undermining price.
But right now, the couple was blissful enough to enjoy them through the most straightforward cooking.
Wang Yufei was somewhat worried about what is in Zhang Qin Feng's mind. Still, as a gourmet, she couldn't control herself from enjoying the table of delicacies.
"Fei-Fei." suddenly, Zhang Qin Feng called her name.
"En?" Wang Yufei stared at him with a piece of artificial lobster meat on her fork.
"Let's go to see your grandfather tomorrow," he suggested.
"No! I know what is in your mind, Feng!" Wang Yufei blatantly rejected as she knew what is in his head.
