Chapter 6 The Popular Grilled Skewers
The aroma grew stronger, and a young man in a trendy hoodie couldn't resist any longer.
He squeezed to the front, his eyes fixed on the sizzling meat skewers on the grill, his Adam's apple bobbing involuntarily.
"Hey, are you selling your kebabs?"
Jiang Yan glanced at the young man, a smirk playing on his lips, his tone languid.
"Why would I be here if I wasn't going to sell?"
The young man choked for a moment.
But then a look of delight appeared on his face, and he quickly pressed for more information.
"How much is a string of them?"
Jiang Yan held up one finger, his tone flat and indifferent.
"Ten thousand yen."
"Ten thousand?"
The young man was stunned for a moment, and was about to nod when he suddenly realized something, as if he had heard something unbelievable, and his voice suddenly rose.
"Are you robbing me? You dare to sell such a small skewer of meat for 10,000 yen?"
Not only the young people, but also the surrounding onlookers were in an uproar.
"Are you crazy? Ten thousand yen can buy a whole watermelon, and this meat skewer isn't even as thick as my finger!"
"Exactly! This price is outrageous! Who would buy it?"
"Is this just some kind of gimmick?"
"You're kidding me..."
The murmurs rose and fell, but Jiang Yan seemed not to hear them, continuing to flip the skewers.
In his view, this price was already a bargain.
This is meat from the Ligaluru mammoth; it's something most people can't afford to eat.
If he hadn't been in a hurry for the money, and if he hadn't been afraid of scaring people away, he would have wanted to just shout out a price of a million per string.
"If you think it's too expensive, just leave. Take it or leave it."
Jiang Yan didn't even look up, his tone tinged with impatience.
If he weren't completely broke, he wouldn't have been willing to give away such a good thing to someone else.
...........................
As they were talking, Jiang Yan's eyes suddenly lit up, and he quickly picked up one of the strings.
The heat was just right; if it had been grilled for even a second longer, the tenderness and flavor of the meat would have been compromised.
Jiang Yan glanced at the hesitant young man, casually picked up a small pinch of orange salt, sprinkled it evenly on the meat skewer, and then took a bite without hesitation.
As you bite through the crispy outer skin, the juices inside burst out instantly, and the warm, meaty aroma mixed with a subtle orange scent explodes in your mouth.
The meat is firm and chewy, yet melts in your mouth, with no fishy or gamey taste whatsoever, only an extreme freshness that surges on your tongue.
Jiang Yan couldn't help but squint his eyes; this taste was simply divine.
And he does seem to have a real talent for cooking!
Of course, the main reason he was able to make it so perfectly was because he had a good understanding of the meat of the Ligaluru mammoth.
After finishing one skewer, I still wanted more.
Jiang Yan simply picked up two more freshly grilled meat skewers, sprinkled them with orange salt, and began to eat them in large mouthfuls.
He didn't care at all that grease was dripping down the corners of his mouth.
Seeing Jiang Yan eating with his mouth full of oil and a satisfied look on his face, the young man's throat started to itch again.
The rich aroma of meat was like an invisible hand, making him itch with desire.
He gritted his teeth, as if he had made up his mind, and pulled out a 10,000 yen bill from his wallet, slapping it down on the small stool in front of Jiang Yan.
"Give me a skewer!"
"Hold on."
Jiang Yan responded vaguely, his mouth still full of meat, his cheeks bulging.
..............................
After swallowing the last bite of meat, Jiang Yan slowly picked up a skewer of perfectly grilled Ligalu mammoth meat, sprinkled it with a thin layer of orange salt, and handed it to the young man.
The young man snatched the meat skewer and eagerly stuffed it into his mouth.
The moment the tooth fell, he froze completely.
He seemed to see a colossal beast that blotted out the sky, suddenly crashing into his taste buds.
The ultimate freshness instantly swept over his entire mouth. It was a taste he had never experienced before: rich, intense, with a perfect touch of smokiness, and a faint orange aroma lingering on his tongue.
The juices burst between his teeth, and the young man couldn't help but let out a suppressed groan. His body twisted slightly uncontrollably, his face full of ecstasy and satisfaction, as if he were floating on a cloud.
Jiang Yan frowned slightly as he looked at the young man's strange appearance, his eyes showing a hint of disdain.
That's an overreaction!
He only sprinkled some orange salt on it; he didn't add any medicine.
The onlookers seemed used to the young man's behavior, but the chatter gradually subsided, replaced by curious glances.
The young man quickly finished the skewer of meat, licking his lips with lingering satisfaction, his eyes filled with fervor.
He simply took out all the money from his wallet, counted it, and then slapped it all into Jiang Yan's hand.
"Thirteen more skewers, please!"
Jiang Yan looked at the thick stack of banknotes in his hand, and a smile finally appeared on his lips.
"no problem."
Then he continued to slowly and methodically turn the meat skewers on the grill.
As the onlookers watched this scene, those who were already wealthy began to have increasingly fervent gazes.
Even those who initially thought it was too expensive couldn't help but start to get restless.
Judging from the young man's reaction, this 11,000 yuan meat skewer might actually be worth the price.
Soon, a second person couldn't resist and stepped forward, pulling out 10,000 yen.
"Boss, give me one too!"
Then came the third, the fourth...
Everyone who had tasted the meat skewers pulled out all the money they had, wishing they could buy all the meat skewers in Jiang Yan's hands.
...........................
Inside the Yukihira restaurant deep in the shopping street.
Soma Yukihira looked at the two empty tables in the shop and scratched his head in confusion.
"Dad, why are there so few customers today?"
Upon hearing Soma Yukihira's words, Joichiro Yukihira, holding the freshly cooked dish, glanced at it and casually replied.
"Well, these things happen occasionally."
Even so, Yukihira Joichiro was also filled with doubts.
Since he took over the cooking at the restaurant, it has been packed with people every mealtime, and today's situation is the first time it has happened.
However, there were still customers waiting to dine in the restaurant, so he couldn't leave to check what was going on.
At the entrance to the shopping street, Jiang Yan handed the last five skewers of grilled meat to a middle-aged man.
He then shrugged helplessly at the crowd surrounding him.
"I'm sorry everyone, we've sold out of ingredients. If you want to eat here, you'll have to wait until tomorrow."
I was initially worried that he set the price too high and wouldn't be able to sell many, but I clearly underestimated the allure of delicious food.
If he had known this would happen, he should have raised the price even higher.
"Huh? They're sold out already! I've been in line for so long!"
"Boss, are you coming tomorrow? You absolutely have to!"
"Could you work overtime? I'm willing to pay double!"
"..."
A chorus of disappointed groans rose from the crowd, while those who had managed to eat the meat skewers looked on with relief.
The middle-aged man, having received the last five skewers of meat, turned to leave.
They were blocked by several people who hadn't bought any.
"Brother, how about I sell you one string of them for eleven thousand?"
The middle-aged man shook his head rapidly.
Sorry, this product is not for sale.
As he spoke, the middle-aged man quickly dodged the group and ran away into the distance.
