Young man, forgive me for being presumptuous, but do you happen to have more of that peach? I would like to buy them from you. I’m willing to pay whatever price you offer!
Uzuishi Akaihi asked sincerely.
I…I want to buy it too…
Yamaguchi Takaki held the empty plate with both his hands like a beggar and said,
If you don’t want money, I can make you a Japanese official! All you to do is give me some of those peaches!
Everyone else was speechless.
Exchanging money and power for delicacies was exactly how people try to get Uzuishi Akaihi to cook for them!
But now, it was Uzuishi Akaihi and the Japanese prime minister who was begging Chen Xiaobei!
A small little peach turned the table and brought Chen Xiaobei fame and wealth!
The nine chefs resigned to keeping quiet, the looked at Chen Xiaobei, their gaze filled with admiration.
Uzuishi Yasai had her hand over her mouth as if yearning to taste the peach but there was something else. She was starting to act even more unnatural with time. Of course, right now, no one noticed this quiet young lady, they all had their eyes on Chen Xiaobei.
I know you are all sincere, but my hands are tied!
Chen Xiaobei shrugged and put on a straight face as he made up stories,
This particular species of peach is very precious! I’ve exhausted a lot of resources and mobilized many men to get my hands on this one! There’s no more!
Oh, that’s why… That’s such a shame… This peach can be comparable to the delicacy in heaven! It’s so rare in the human realm!
Uzuishi Akaihi and Yamaguchi Takaki sighed, they looked absolutely devastated at this news as if they had just missed a very valuable item.
What they do not know was that Chen Xiaobei had stored up to 100 ripe water honey peaches in the Infinite Space Ring and he had a whole forest of them in Green Vine City.
Chen Xiaobei only said that to make the First Love Peach seemed like a rare commodity, just like he did with the spicy sticks to fool Yanwang.
The rarer the item, the higher the value.
Only when they believe that the item was rare and valuable, they would be more willing to do things for Chen Xiaobei!
Master Akaihi, my fruit platter has passed, right?
Chen Xiaobei smiled.
I want to eat a good feast in three days’ time. That shouldn’t be a problem, right?
No problem! No problem at all! I will do my best!
Uzuishi Akaihi patted his chest as pledge and said,
If you ever get your hands on this peach next time, please get me some… If it’s too much problem, even one is good enough!
Alas, Chen Xiaobei’s trick had worked.
Uzuishi Akaihi wanted to eat the First Love Peach again so, naturally, he was willing to use his specialty skills to prepare a dish of sashimi for Chen Xiaobei!
Sure! If I will help you if I get the chance!
Chen Xiaobei promised.
The First Love Peach was actually nothing valuable.
If he could get the 9,000 years-old Saturn Peach, he would be so happy he might even gift a few kilograms of peaches to Uzuishi Akaihi!
Do you have any special request? Tell me now so that I can get the ingredients!
Uzuishi Akaihi said.
Yes!
Chen Xiaobei nodded.
I want to present this sashimi to an elderly lady. She is of high status and position. I hope to present it to her during a party. I hope you could create a very meaningful sashimi dish!
This was, of course, not a problem for a legendary cook like Uzuishi Akaihi. He agreed straightaway.
Don’t worry. All you need to do is come back and get it in three days.
Alright, then I’ll take my leave.
Chen Xiaobei trusted Uzuishi Akaihi’s reputation so he simply turned and left.
Master Akaihi!
Yamaguchi Takaki smiled jovially and said,
Is it our turn again? You still haven’t tasted nine other dishes!
Uzuishi Akaihi glared at Yamaguchi Takaki and snapped,
You have tasted the peach yourself! Do you think that after eating that amazing fruit, I will still think that the other dishes taste good?
That…
Yamaguchi Takaki was taken aback.
Even though he was here with a task, he could not not admit that after tasting the juice of the peach, everything else he eats after that would taste bland in comparison.
Save it! Unless you have a masochistic tendency, and like being scolded, please leave!
Uzuishi Akaihi ordered his guests to depart.
If that’s the case, then we’ll get out of your hair… We’ll show ourselves out…
Yamaguchi Takaki understood the old legendary cook’s temper so he left with his nine master chefs.
Just as they stepped out of the door, Chen Xiaobei, who had already put on the Nikkawa Dachi mask, was already waiting.
It looks like you weren’t able to convince Master Akaihi, right, prime minister?
Chen Xiaobei asked in a playful tone.
Sigh, I don’t want to talk about it.
Yamaguchi Takaki was troubled.
We’ll have to settle with second-grade chef for the crown prince’s wedding.
Everyone else was just as demoralized. They all said nothing.
When they finally reached the foot of the hill where they parked their cars, they found a hundred over men waiting!
Four men dressed in kimonos stood at the front and behind them were ten middle-aged men dressed in refined ninjutsu uniform.
And behind them were over a hundred younger looking ninjas.
Oh no… They don’t look friendly!
Chen Xiaobei was suddenly panic-stricken.
Aiya… Four Enigmatic Ninjas! And ten pinnacle ninjas, what brought you here?
Yamaguchi Takaki suddenly lit up and ran ingratiatingly towards the group of ninjas, bowing and scraping to them.
It’s pretty clear now that this Prime Minister Yamaguchi Takaki really did not have much power at all. He did not even dare ruffle the hairs on Nikkawa Daichi. What more these four Enigmatic Ninjas and the pinnacle ninjas that were as powerful as Nikkawa Daichi.
What was more, these ninjas were pretty special—they were specially sent by Tenshou to assist the emperor and the officials!
Yamaguchi Takaki was in no position to wrong anyone so he could only bootlick.
It’s a classified operation. Order the chefs to leave.
Green Dragon Enigmatic Ninja instructed.
Yes!
Yamaguchi Takaki waved the master chefs to get on the cars and leave.
Chen Xiaobei did not know what was happening but he refrained from asking any questions in case he accidentally gave himself away.
Little did he know that his cover had been blown the night he killed Nikkawa Okazaka!
Chen Xiaobei! Why don’t you just remove your mask!
Green Dragon Enigmatic Ninja peered at Chen Xiaobei and said.
The hundreds of Ninjas stood in formation and surrounded Chen Xiaobei.
