Chapter 177: Food not to your liking?
He will definitely be able to lead Daqin to a more prosperous future.
Prince Fusu sat alone at the dining table, facing the table full of delicious food, but his brows were furrowed.
His chopsticks tapped lightly on the table, making a slight sound.
It seemed as if he was venting his inner dissatisfaction.
He glanced at the dishes on the table, although each dish was exquisite.
But the taste was far less delicious than he remembered.
Prince Fusu sighed softly and closed his eyes.
It was as if he could travel back to that distant modern world, where there were familiar foods and flavors.
He thought of the spicy hotpot, the sweet and sour pork ribs, and the barbecue that would ooze out fresh juice when you took a bite.
……
Those flavors can now only be savored in dreams.
"I really miss it..."
Prince Fusu murmured to himself, with a hint of loneliness in his voice that was hard to conceal.
He opened his eyes and looked at the dishes on the table again, feeling helpless.
He knew that in this ancient world, he could no longer taste those familiar flavors.
Just then, Li Chen walked in.
Seeing that Prince Fusu looked unwell, he asked with concern.
"Sir, is the food not to your liking?"
Prince Fusu nodded, he looked up at Li Chen, a hint of expectation flashing in his eyes.
"Li Chen, do you think we can find a way to improve the taste of these dishes?"
“I always feel like they’re missing something.”
Li Chen was observing Master Fusu's expression from the side, and his heart couldn't help but tighten.
He knew very well that Prince Fusu was picky about food, and he also understood that the table full of delicacies would not satisfy him.
So he hurried forward and spoke respectfully.
"Sir, are these dishes not to your liking? If so, I will immediately change the cook for you."
Upon hearing this, Prince Fusu shook his head slightly and sighed.
"Li Chen, you misunderstood. I'm not dissatisfied with the chef's cooking skills, but I feel that the taste of these dishes...seems to be missing something."
He paused, as if searching for the right words to describe how he felt.
“Perhaps it’s the spices and ingredients that make the dishes more flavorful and layered.”
Li Chen secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this.
He understood that Prince Fusu was not being unreasonable, but rather had higher aspirations for food.
So he answered respectfully.
"What the young master said is absolutely true."
"The spices and ingredients of the Qin Dynasty are truly incomparable to those of other places."
"But please rest assured, sir. I will try my best to find better ingredients and seasonings to satisfy your taste."
Prince Fusu nodded and looked at Li Chen with gratitude.
He knew that Li Chen had always served him wholeheartedly.
I also understand that it is not easy to find ingredients and seasonings that are comparable to those of modern times in this era.
So he said with a smile.
"Li Chen, you misunderstood. I'm not blaming you, I'm just sighing."
"The ingredients and seasonings of the Qin Dynasty are naturally unique."
"I just miss the modern delicacies and feel a little emotional."
When Li Chen heard Prince Fusu say this, he was even more moved.
He was well aware of Prince Fusu's trust and reliance on him, and he also understood the heavy responsibility on his shoulders.
So he answered respectfully.
"Don't worry, sir. I will keep working hard to find better ingredients and seasonings for you."
"At the same time, I will discuss it with the chefs."
