Have you ever seen glowing food? That's why you draw a food-themed anime.

"How to do?"

After experiencing the mesmerizing sensation of the food, which seemed to intoxicate even the neurons, the group members couldn't bring themselves to eat any more.

"How about we..."

He hadn't even uttered the word "change" yet.

Zhang Ya's eyes suddenly lit up: "Didn't we also order beef? Beef stew in Burgundy red wine. We can decide after we finish the beef."

"Yes! There's also beef!"

"If even the imitation barbecue dishes are this delicious, I can only imagine how good the beef must be!"

The group members were practically drooling just thinking about it.

Meanwhile, in Zhang Ya's group's eyes, Xu Zhou was starting to make Burgundy beef stew.

When Xu Zhou took out the red wine and soaked the beef in it, a discerning customer in the crowd couldn't help but exclaim, "Burgundy Pinot Noir?"

"This smell..."

"That's impossible! You're using such expensive red wine for a dish that costs 12,800 yuan?"

Having a hard time?

Zhang Ya is quite knowledgeable about red wine.

At this moment, she couldn't sit still any longer and jumped up from her seat.

With my camera in hand, I rushed over in a few steps.

Even without seeing the bottle, just smelling it and seeing the color of the red wine inside made her heart flutter.

"Burgundy Pinot Noir?"

With her eyes closed, Zhang Ya could smell the fruity and floral aromas in the red wine, with a hint of sweetness.

You can almost taste the pleasant flavors of vanilla, cardamom, and cocoa from the oak barrels.

It has no sour or astringent taste at all; instead, it is filled with an intoxicating blend of wine and grape aromas, creating a rich and mellow flavor.

Even when I'm at home, I can't drink a single sip of such expensive red wine during the Chinese New Year.

The wine in my wine cabinet isn't as good as this one, but I've always been reluctant to take it out and drink it.

Xu Zhou actually used it to soak beef!

God!

He actually used such expensive ingredients to cook!

This isn't just rare ingredients! This is top-quality ingredients!

So engrossed in the red wine that Zhang Ya became somewhat numb when she saw the tender, moist, fresh beef next to her, its marbling like that of a work of art.

"No wonder your beef stew in Burgundy costs 12,800 yuan."

"Selling less would probably result in a loss, right?"

Although only 250ml of this red wine was poured out, its top-quality wine is so expensive that it hurts to pay for such a small amount.

The red wine broth infused with secret spices is completely absorbed by the beef; you can even drip red wine out of the beef if you lift it up.

It looks so tempting.

Zhang Ya replied without hesitation, "I want three servings!"

The team members over there quickly scanned the QR code and looked over.

Team leader!

We agreed it was just for taking pictures!

As Xu Zhou heated the oil, he said in a nonchalant tone, "Each person can only have one serving, and there's a limit of ten servings per day."

“Then my team members will take two portions.”

Zhang Ya paused for a moment, then said, "It's my treat."

Xu Zhou: "..."

Fine.

Considering how many members she has in her group.

...

Rare and top-quality ingredients collide to create wonderful results.

The beef sizzles as it's fried in oil, instantly bringing out the rich aroma of the red wine and the fatty flavor of the beef.

Those who hadn't left after joining the group purchase looked over like they were on searchlights, and one discerning customer immediately exclaimed, "Me! I want a serving of beef too!"

"Brother Ma?" someone next to him asked in a low voice, "Twelve thousand eighty per serving."

"Buy it, trust me, the quality of this beef and red wine is absolutely worth it!"

"Okay... Boss! I'll have one too."

Although many people were watching Xu Zhou cook, Xu Zhou himself was not nervous at all.

Standing in front of the stove, Xu Zhou methodically fried and stewed the beef. Each stove had a small pot for stewing.

The beef, which had been coated with honey beforehand, was fully infused with flavor in less than half an hour.

Once the stewed beef is cooked, it is ladled out and the concentrated broth is poured over it, and the beef dishes are quickly served.

"The beef stew in Burgundy red wine is ready."

Xu Zhou glanced at them and said, "Come and get it."

"it is good!"

Zhang Ya almost couldn't wait to ask her team members to bring the three portions of beef and the ten portions of meat that had been pre-cut from the group purchase to her booth area.

The beef exudes an extremely tempting aroma, and even a small cut reveals concentrated juices seeping out.

"hiss……"

"This is too young."

"The red wine has such a rich flavor, and the beef is so tender..."

Several team members took a bite, and their heads started buzzing.

All thoughts were completely captivated and dominated by the deliciousness of the top-quality ingredients.

All distracting thoughts vanished, and my entire body felt as if it were bewitched by the rich, silky aroma of red wine, all of which, along with the flavors of spices, had permeated the beef.

With each bite, it feels as if you can still feel the slices of meat flying around you even with your eyes closed.

"The red wine tastes just right, and the spices don't overpower the flavor; everything is just perfect."

"The top-quality ingredients were not only not overlooked, but their presence further highlighted his terrifying control."

Zhang Ya closed her eyes and took a bite. She didn't feel how good the beef, red wine, and ingredients were; she only felt all the complex flavors converge into a golden light.

As she took that bite of beef, Zhang Ya took a deep breath and made a decision.

"change!"

"How can we change it? We've already written the topic. If we want to change it, wouldn't that be a major overhaul?" A team member said with some concern.

If I start working so hard now, what if I don't finish writing it tonight? Then I won't be able to submit it on time.

The next second, Zhang Ya smiled.

"Do not."

"No major changes are needed."

"Just add four words to the topic selection." Zhang Ya glanced at her topic selection and added four words to the end.

I will try my best to add pictures wherever possible.

Raise your hand if you carefully read the words in the magazine.

Chapter 38 was published in a magazine?

The other customers who joined the group purchase today sat there until the afternoon and none of them wanted to leave.

They now understand why the shop owner splits a dish into smaller portions for group purchases.

So it was requested by the customer.

A customer who couldn't afford beef yesterday but spent 1,280 yuan today to try a tenth of a serving of beef stew in Burgundy red wine felt satisfied.

They put a mouthful in their mouths and tilted their heads back like pilgrims to savor the taste.

"So this is what it tastes like..."

"The shop owner is so kind!"

"Try some other dishes."

Because the store was so crowded, almost everything was sold out by evening.

Even Zhang Ya bought a portion of the other two dishes at the restaurant after finishing her beef.

When she tasted the oyster porridge, her eyes widened.

If the previous Burgundy beef stew made her realize Xu Zhou's terrifying control over the flavors and combinations of ingredients, then...

This dish perfectly showcases his culinary skills.

It's just a simple porridge dish, yet it's incredibly delicious, with distinct yet harmonious flavors.

The transformation into egg rice is simply amazing.

After the meat jelly melts, it coats the rice, making the rice not only at the perfect temperature to eat, but also soaking up the broth. One bite and the plump, fragrant rice grains fill your mouth with aroma, accompanied by the smoothness of the egg, making it incredibly delicious.

"Boss, pay up."

"Three servings of beef, one serving of imitation barbecue, and one serving of egg rice with oyster congee, totaling 41,836."

"I paid."

After Zhang Ya paid the bill, she immediately led the entire group to the school library to begin urgently revising their thesis topic.

...

Return home in the evening.

Xu Zhou calculated the money he earned today.

Because there are a lot of people today.

They sold seven servings of beef stew in Burgundy red wine, ten servings of oyster congee, ten servings of egg rice, and nineteen servings of imitation roast meat dishes.

The net profit after tax was 24,156.

Xu Zhou was in a great mood when he saw the profit, but what surprised him even more was the speed at which his prayer points increased.

The other dishes were all pretty standard.

Only imitation roast meat dishes and beef stew in Burgundy wine saw growth much faster than usual.

【仿制烤肉料理祈愿值+1+1+1+1+1…】

[Imitation barbecue dishes: 1625/10000 (3)]

[Beef Stew in Burgundy Red Wine: 730/1000]

The number of servings of the imitation barbecue dish that can be sold has increased after the upgrade, and the wish points gained by people who participate in group buying have directly increased by 625.

"With more available portions, the prayer value increases faster than the stewed beef."

"At this rate, beef stew in Burgundy will soon be upgraded as well."

"Liver! The more vegetables you have, the more choices you have!"

Seeing the thriving prayer value, Xu Zhou was extremely satisfied. After finishing his meal, he played on his phone for a while before sitting down at his computer again.
