Mercenary’s War
Chapter 505 - 505 Five Hundred and One

505: Chapter Five Hundred and One 505: Chapter Five Hundred and One There were still plenty of dishes in the iron bucket, almost all full except for the corn pancakes, so when Sirte said the food was all gone, there was only one explanation; he was talking about the tomato and egg stir-fry made by Cui Bo.

Gao Yang didn’t feel like eating anymore either.

He didn’t want to be left hanging in suspense, so he threw his spoon down and said, “Come on, let’s find Rabbit and see what the situation is.

Whether Rabbit has lost face or shown face, we’ll know after we take a look.”

Li Jinfang immediately said to Sirte, “Can Opener, where’s the kitchen?

Let’s go have a look.”

Sirte casually pointed and said, “Right next door.”

Gao Yang and Li Jinfang got up and left, hurrying out of the cafeteria and around to the back.

Before they could even get to the kitchen, they heard Cui Bo boasting proudly, “Are the eggs beaten well?

Bring them here.

Are the tomatoes chopped?

Just put them here.

Everyone, pay attention now.

We only have so many eggs; I can only demonstrate once.

Keep your eyes on the steps.

Huaxia cuisine is all about the heat control.

Do you understand what heat control means?”

Li Jinfang stopped in his tracks, saying with disdain, “Hey, this idiot is putting on airs.

I can make tomato and egg stir-fry myself.

What heat control nonsense is he talking about?”

Gao Yang slapped his thigh and exclaimed, “I’ve got it, I’ve got it!”

Li Jinfang asked curiously, “What have you got?”

Gao Yang spoke deliberately, “These stupid foreigners have never eaten tomato and egg stir-fry.

Tell me, we’ve been eating abroad for so long, have you ever seen this dish here?

Have you?”

Li Jinfang shook his head and said, “I really haven’t.”

Gao Yang suddenly felt confident.

He gestured with his hand and said, “Let’s go in and take a look.”

The two finally stepped into the kitchen, only to see Cui Bo surrounded by several people, working at the cutting board on some food.

“Pay attention to the seasoning; it’s very simple.

Oil, salt, we don’t have Huaxia soy sauce here, but actually, a little bit of soy sauce would taste even better.

Write it down, all of it, make a note, remember, it must be Huaxia soy sauce.

Another very key ingredient is sugar!”

Gao Yang gnashed his teeth and said, “This idiot is really putting sugar in the tomato and egg stir-fry!”

As a northerner, Gao Yang firmly belonged to the camp that prefers savory tomato and egg stir-fry.

Li Jinfang was the same.

Yet despite being from a place close to their hometown, Cui Bo was firmly in the sweet camp.

Gao Yang and Li Jinfang had scorned Cui Bo for being such a traitor countless times.

Hearing Gao Yang’s voice, Cui Bo looked out from among the crowd and called out loudly, “Ah, Brother Yang, what brings you over here?”

Gao Yang asserted righteously, “You damn Rabbit, I’m telling you, you can put sugar in the tomato and egg stir-fry, but if you dare to make it sickeningly sweet, I’ll have Toad kill you.

Remember the word ‘moderation’; it must be moderate!”

Li Jinfang also waved his fist threateningly and said, “Too sweet, and you’re a dead man.”

Before Cui Bo could respond, one of the people standing by his side spoke up discontentedly, “Sorry, gentlemen, we are engaged in a very serious academic exchange; if there’s nothing important, please do not disturb us.”

Cui Bo immediately said, “Yeah, yeah, moderation, moderation, not too sweet, don’t worry, don’t worry.”

Nate was also in the kitchen, and he spread his hands to Gao Yang, saying, “I heard it’s quite simple, so simple that I want to learn how to make it too.

Gentlemen, please continue.”

Cui Bo cleared his throat and said, “The ingredients we need are just these few, and with them, we can make a delicious Huaxia dish.

Of course, some seasonings would make it even better, but this simple method will do just fine.

Very, very simple, right?

Next up is the crucial part, we need to scramble the eggs first.”

Li Jinfang whispered to Gao Yang, “That’s right, Rabbit has shown his face, but looking at how he’s doing it, I really can’t stand to watch it.

Let’s get out of here.”

Gao Yang nodded and shouted, “Moderation, moderation!”

After reminding Cui Bo once more, Gao Yang and Li Jinfang hurried out of the kitchen under the wrathful gaze of a few chefs from the Angel Mercenary Corps, running away sadly.

Before settling back into the kitchen and beginning to eat, Gao Yang nodded and said, “Now I’m sure that foreigners just don’t have the dish scrambled eggs with tomatoes.

I’ve decided, when I go back, I’ll make this for Yelena to try.”

After Li Jinfang looked at the food on his plate and took a bite, he stated confidently, “It’s delicious.

Now, I’m sure of one thing: our usual fare seems to be something special to these silly foreigners.

And another thing I’m certain of is that no matter how delicious a dish is, eating it every day can make one grow tired of it.

Look at how good these dishes are, and these silly foreigners won’t eat them.

They just wait for scrambled eggs with tomatoes, especially when Rabbit makes them.

I don’t get it, it’s probably because they are fed up with these.”

Gao Yang tapped Li Jinfang with a spoon and said, “I think your use of the word ‘silly’ is very apt.

Come on, let’s eat.”

As the two of them were enjoying their meal, they saw two chefs carrying a large stainless steel bucket into the dining hall, and then Cui Bo, encircled by a few people, entered the dining hall, looking proud.

Seeing the steel bucket being brought into the dining hall, the previously bored twenty-some people immediately stood up, then quickly lined up in front of the bucket.

The soldiers, eager yet orderly, each scooped up a plate of scrambled eggs with tomatoes and sat back down—big soldiers with guns on their backs and camouflage paint on their faces, eating joyfully with a spoon in one hand and a pancake in the other.

“Man, they are so uncultured, hey, look at this guy, dipping his pancake in the sauce, Curtis, must they exaggerate so much?”

“This one’s even more outrageous, Brother Yang, quick, look at that guy.

He’s spreading it on his pancake—jeez, no, he’s actually rolling it up to eat.

What the hell, he’s made a mess all over his hand, the fool.”

While Gao Yang and Li Jinfang commented on the variety of eating styles among the soldiers, Cui Bo cleared his throat and spoke up loudly, “Guys, this dish really needs to be eaten with rice to taste good.

We don’t have rice here, but next time, I’ll make sure to treat you all to an authentic Huaxia rice with this dish.”

Cui Bo’s words elicited cheers from the soldiers who were eating.

Then, a serious-looking chef—of course, he also carried a gun while cooking, looking no different from the other soldiers—spoke up loudly, “Fellas, we’ve learned how to make this dish, and from now on, we’ll cook it frequently for everyone.”

Another round of cheers erupted, and Gao Yang, seeing how happy they were eating, felt somewhat restless.

He whispered, “Toad, go get some for us to try.

It looks just so-so to me.

Is it really that delicious?”

Li Jinfang scooped up a smaller portion and, after he and Gao Yang furrowed their brows and each spooned a mouthful, they both exclaimed angrily at the same time, “Curtis, it’s actually sweet!”

Gao Yang smacked his lips and said, “It’s not too bad, just a bit sweet, which is acceptable.

Good thing Rabbit didn’t make it into a sweet dish.

I just fear that these people might start treating scrambled eggs with tomatoes as a dessert, in which case Rabbit would really be in trouble.”

Just then, as everyone was eating merrily, Gao Yang suddenly heard someone in his earpiece whisper, “Report, surveillance point four has detected an incoming reconnaissance drone.

Stay concealed.” (To be continued.
