Chapter 36: An Unexpected Substantial Reward
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“This is a wild bass, so its size is larger. A bass like this has lived its entire life in this lake, so its flesh should be tender and extremely fresh. Let’s roast the fish today.”
Ning Fei emerged from the lake and then searched for what he needed — this black rock. It was flat and smooth on one side, and looked like a chopping board.
Ning Fei washed the rock before placing the wild bass on it. With a few lightning flashes of his knife, he had removed the scales and cleaned it.
‘Seriously… This host’s skill with a knife is damn good.’
‘Holy Cow! That’s amazing!’
‘Haven’t you watched him carve melons before?’
‘Carving?’
‘You can search for it on social media platforms such as Baidu, Weibo, or Douyin.’
‘This webcaster’s knife skills are really awesome.’
After cleaning it thoroughly, Ning Fei surveyed the surroundings.
“Guys, hold on a minute. I think I saw the leaves of a Summery tree.”
Ning Fei strode to a tree and plucked off a few leaves the size of his palm.
“The leaf of a Summery tree can withstand high heat and can even ensure the heat is evenly distributed. It also possesses a natural scent. It’s therefore ideal for roasting fish. Now, I’m going to slice the fish.”
Ning Fei picked up the wild bass, and the knife in his hand seemed to come alive. He had transformed into a carving artist as the knife danced agilely with every cut. His movements were accurate and graceful as he sliced the fish.
He first sliced the fish in half and then used the knife to remove the bones.
His skills had left his audience awestruck.
“If you want to roast a fish, it’s better if you can ensure that the flesh of the fish is even. Only then would the taste be good. I didn’t prepare any seasoning today. The fish would taste so much better if it was marinated. For example, skewered lamb kebabs would never taste as good as an entire roasted lamb. Do you know why? That’s because before a lamb is roasted, it would be marinated for a long time, and the flavor would have seeped through and been absorbed fully.”
As Ning Fei explained, his viewers were salivating. He should be a food connoisseur webcaster instead.
Ning Fei found a few stones to construct a simple and crude stove, with a hole below for firewood. The black rock was placed on top.
“Everyone, do take note that you have to minimize the gaps in the structure. Otherwise, the heat will escape. Therefore, we need to seal the gaps. Look, I’ve sealed the back as well. Now, what we need to do is to insert the firewood from the front.”
Ning Fei found some dry branches and returned.
He lit a fire with the dry leaves and branches, and used his hands to block the stove’s entrance.
In no time, smoke was rising in spirals, and the fire was lit.
Next, Ning Fei put the Summery tree leaves on the black rock before spreading the dish on it.
He had a few bottles of condiments and began to sprinkle some on the fish.
“The best part of roasting a fish is that the temperature will be evenly distributed. This will guarantee that every part of the flesh will be evenly cooked. Not only can the Summery tree leaves eliminate the fish’s odor, they will also add a faint natural fragrance to the flesh.”
Ning Fei rattled on as he added more branches to the fire, and Little Falcon was beside him as it jumped excitedly.
Ning Fei was fully absorbed as he watched the fire. He was fully focused and gave off an image of steadiness and seriousness.
A man was the most charming when he worked hard.
Many of the viewers agreed that Ning Fei was even more handsome right now.
With another look at the fish being roasted on the rock, everyone’s appetite was whetted.
‘It looks so yummy!’
‘Hur! Why did I click and enter? I’m supposed to be on a diet!’
‘I’ve decided that I’m going to order fish for my food delivery.’?
‘Argh, I can’t take it anymore! I’m drooling.’
‘Host, go over to the food webcasts! You will definitely be popular!’
The viewers clamored to comment. free webnov el.com
The rock took some time to become heated. And after it was heated, the fish became cooked in minutes.
“I can smell the fish now. Looks like my roasted fish is a success!”
Ning Fei shifted the branches as he inhaled deeply in enjoyment.
Little Falcon’s eyes were peeled on the fish on the rock, and it bounced on Ning Fei’s shoulder.
‘Host, you’re too much.’
‘Yeah, you’re boasting!’
The viewers began to jeer.
Ning Fei read the comments gleefully.
Suddenly, someone rewarded him.
The Girl Who Buried Flowers has sent a super rocket.
The Girl Who Buried Flowers has sent a super rocket.
…
A super rocket cost 2,000?yuan1, and this fan had even sent a few consecutively.
“Thank you, The Girl Who Buried Flowers, for sending these super rockets. Thank you!”
Ning Fei naturally mentioned the name of those who had sent him rockets.
Then, something absurd that shocked everyone happened.
The Girl Who Buried Flowers had initially sent 10 super rockets.
Then 20, 30, and 40…
It was as though these rockets were free. They kept flying across the screen, and it blurred everyone’s eyes.
‘What is happening?’
‘Is he being kept by a mistress?’
‘Damn it! She sent more than fifty!’
Ning Fei was initially overjoyed when someone sent him rockets. Gradually, he got worried when he noticed the number of rockets.
Evidently, he hadn’t gotten used to this.
Besides, there had been news of rewards that had violated the rules, such as some accountant having embezzled money from his company or a kid using her parents’ money to send rewards. Naturally, he had no wish to be embroiled in such scandals.
In hindsight, this girl’s name was weird. The Girl Who Buried Flowers… He couldn’t help but detect a tinge of sorrow and misery.
Ning Fei hastily said, “Hi. Thank you for the numerous super rockets. I hope to convey happiness through my webcast, and I would be delighted if my supporters can send me rewards occasionally. But I would feel pressured if it was too much.”
Ning Fei smiled helplessly as he added, “Thank you for supporting me. If you like me, just watch my webcast.”
When Ning Fei finished speaking, she stopped sending the super rockets.
The Girl Who Buried Flowers had sent a total of 60 super rockets.
She had planned to send 100 rockets, which would have cost 200,000 yuan. f reewe bnovel
Frankly speaking, this amount was merely an insignificant amount. There was once a fan who had enjoyed an author’s novel so much that she had rewarded him with 1,000,000 yuan.
There was also another reader who had given several hundred thousand yuan to an author in a day and didn’t even bat his eyes.
It’s hard for normal people to put themselves in the shoes of the wealthy.
The Girl Who Buried Flowers was naturally Jiang Xue. This amount was literally spare change to her or the equivalent of 20 yuan to an ordinary man.
But Jiang Xue had ceased her rewards at Ning Fei’s request.
The fragrance of the roasted fish became stronger, and it lured Ning Fei’s attention to it.
