I Cultivated Using My Phone In A Fantasy World - Chapter 16

Chapter 16: Business Opportunity

Old Fang secretly glanced at Fang Chen, an inexplicable glint in his eyes.

Xu Mianfeng saw everything from afar and did not hide the admiration in his eyes.

“Your Highness is benevolent. This is the future blessing of the Northern Heavens,” Xu Mianfeng rode his horse to Fang Chen and said from the bottom of his heart.

“Hehe, don’t flatter me. It’s only because I’m in the Northern Heavens’ territory that I’m doing good deeds. Otherwise, the world is so big. Even if I was able to save one, I won’t be able to save a bunch. If I really try to show off, I’m afraid that before I save anyone, I’ll be dragged down to death,” Fang Chen curled his lips and said indifferently.

Xu Mianfeng’s heart skipped a beat. He felt that this Prince of Zhenbei was really unpredictable.

So the subject was quickly brushed aside, and the three of them continued on their way.

“Old Fang, it’s almost lunchtime. Let’s rest here. Didn’t you hunt two hares? You can show off your culinary skills now,” instructed Fang Chen. After walking for a while, Fang Chen was a little worried because he did not have any rations. He felt that his stomach was empty early on.

“Hehe, Young Master, don’t worry. I’m good at this. Wait for me with Elder Xu. I’ll find a water source to deal with this wild rabbit.”

Old Fang did not decline at all. He carried the two hares and headed deeper into the forest.

Fang Chen watched Old Fang leave and felt that there was something strange about him.

“Your old servant is quite courageous. He’s not afraid of encountering big bugs in this forest.” Suddenly, Xu Mianfeng said casually.

Fang Chen instantly understood the deeper meaning behind Xu Mianfeng’s words.

Old Fang had gone deep into the mountains and forests, so there would definitely be some ferocious beasts roaming around. Without any strength, who would dare to barge straight in? Old Fang was definitely not stupid, but he was not afraid at all. This was clearly suspicious.

However, Fang Chen was now certain that even if Old Fang knew a thing or two, he would only be able to escape.

Therefore, Fang Chen had no intention of continuing Xu Mianfeng’s words. He casually said, “Elder Xu, Old Fang is courageous mainly because he has been influenced by me. Can’t you tell that I’m essentially a hero who can remain calm even if an avalanche happens in front of me?”

Xu Mianfeng was speechless. He finally realized how shameless Fang Chen was.

After a while, Old Fang indeed washed the hare. He even caught a few fat fish that had been washed. He even picked up a bundle of dry firewood and swaggered back.

Expertly, he started the fire and set up three wooden racks for the barbecue. Then the three of them looked at each other and started the barbecue.

“Old Fang, your wilderness survival skills are not bad. When did you learn them?” Fang Chen also spun a barbecue grill. He admired Old Fang’s ability, so he asked curiously.

“Hehe, when I was young, I, Old Fang, was also a graceful young master who liked to travel the martial world and take revenge. In order to encounter those young female warriors who had just entered the martial world, I had to learn this basic life skill.” Old Fang grinned as he turned the grill.

“I—”

Fang Chen looked at Old Fang’s hunched figure and sloppy appearance. He felt as uncomfortable as if he had eaten a dead fly.

The corners of Xu Mianfeng’s mouth twitched. Although he felt that Old Fang might not be simple, he really could not stand him being so shameless.

Fang Chen had completely given up. He did not want to ask Old Fang anything anymore and focused on the barbecue. When he saw that the barbecue had turned golden and the fragrance of meat wafted in the air, he took out a packet of powder from the small bag on his back and slowly sprinkled it on his barbecue.

“Young Master, what did you sprinkle? Why does it smell strange, like Chinese medicine?” Old Fang noticed Fang Chen’s actions and asked curiously.

Fang Chen originally could not be bothered with Old Fang, but when he saw that Xu Mianfeng was also looking at him, he said proudly, “Old Fang, this is an exclusive invention of this prince. The barbecue seasoning is based on the principle of medicinal cuisine. The Chinese medicine suitable for barbecue is ground into powder. After a certain ratio, not only can it increase the freshness of the meat, but it can also permeate its own medicinal properties and make the barbecue even more delicious.”

Fang Chen knew that barbecue was indispensable for this trip. It just so happened that he had seen a detailed tutorial on making barbecue ingredients before he transmigrated. He had even tested it himself, so he had learned it and brought some barbecue seasonings with him.

“Ah, really?” Old Fang’s eyes lit up. He said excitedly, “Young Master, sprinkle some for me too. I’ll try your Chinese medicine seasoning.”

“Alright, you’ve been busy. Even if you don’t have any credit, you’ve worked hard. I’ll let you enjoy the food.” Fang Chen generously threw a packet to Old Fang, then looked at Xu Mianfeng and said bluntly, “Elder Xu, you beat back those bandits previously and saved me the trouble. I’ll give you a packet to try.”

“Alright, then I’ll thank you.”

Actually, Xu Mianfeng did not want to try at all, but Fang Chen was the prince. If he did not want it, it would be too embarrassing. Therefore, he took the seasoning and imitated Fang Chen, sprinkling the seasoning on the roasted meat.

Soon, Fang Chen’s roasted hare was ready.

“Come, come, come. My hare is ready. One leg for each of you. Try my cooking and barbecue.”

Fang Chen first gave Old Fang and Xu Mianfeng a rabbit leg each before grabbing an entire rabbit and gnawing on it.

“Wow, it really smells much better. I’ve decided that when I have the chance, I’ll prepare some of this powder. This thing is simply enjoyable to barbecue in the wild.”

Old Fang took the rabbit leg and took a bite eagerly. Then, his eyes lit up and he praised, “Wow, this is too amazing. Not only does it retain the freshness of the meat, but there’s also a spicy fragrance. It’s simply a delicacy.”

Xu Mianfeng also started eating and was soon full of praise.

“Young Master, I didn’t expect you to have such a talent for cooking. If you sell these medicinal powders to those swordsmen who travel the world, I’m afraid this roasted meat will become a must-have in the future,” Old Fang flattered him again.

“Um…”

Fang Chen’s eyes lit up.

“That’s right. This medicinal powder has been ground into such a state with a certain ratio of ingredients. It can be said to be my exclusive secret recipe. If this is used to sell it, once it forms a market, it will definitely be a monopoly.

As long as this source of income is opened, I will have my own source of income. Even if the camera function on my phone can’t be used this time, when a new function appears and I have to pay for it myself, I won’t be stopped.”

Fang Chen looked at Old Fang and suddenly felt that this old man was not so annoying anymore. He was simply his lucky star.

After all, this business opportunity for barbecue was meant to satisfy Fang Chen’s appetite. He had never thought of using it to earn money.

In the end, Old Fang was so casual about it. That was really enlightening.

Moreover, Old Fang had marked out the location of the crowd for Fang Chen.

As for the swordsmen who traveled the martial arts world, this group of customers was very mobile. As long as the barbecue seasoning was good, there would naturally be people promoting it. It would be an invincible mobile advertisement.

Food, clothing, accommodation, and transportation were basic necessities of life, and food was the hardest to satisfy.

If this could really get the barbecue seasoning business going and become an exclusive business, a million yuan really did not seem that far away.
