Chapter 39: Truffles

The time in the demon refining pot passed faster than outside, and Xiao Ping, who woke up, hurriedly left the demon refining pot, and found that he was just taking a nap, and it was already the morning of the second day in the world outside the world. There were four missed calls on the phone, all from Pierre. Xiao Ping knew that there was only one thing for the French to call him in such a hurry, so he hurriedly washed his face as quickly as possible, and went straight to Raffles Western Restaurant without even having time to eat breakfast.

He rushed to Raffles' as fast as he could, and as soon as he entered, he shouted, "Pierre, Pierre, where's my truffle?"

The noisy Xiao Ping made several waiters glare at him angrily, but fortunately the restaurant was not open yet, otherwise they would definitely kick Xiao Ping out of the city.

"My dear friend, you're coming so fast!" Pierre quickly appeared from the back kitchen and gave Xiao Ping a warm hug.

In normal times, Xiao Ping would never hug a man, but now he was anxious to see the truffle, which allowed Pierre to succeed.

The Frenchman took Xiao Ping to the back kitchen, carefully took out a tightly packed box and said, "This is the ingredient with the taste of heaven, truffles, one of the three treasures!"

Xiao Ping was also a little excited by what Pierre said, and was anxious to see what this legendary delicacy was like. However, when Pierre opened the box, Xiao Ping was immediately stunned, and subconsciously blurted out: "Isn't this a potato?"

The box was split into two parts, each containing several pieces resembling plant tubers, which looked really similar to potatoes. The difference between the two "potatoes" is that one is darker in color and the other is lighter, and in Xiao Ping's eyes, it is at most the difference between black potatoes and white potatoes.

"Nonsense!" Hearing Xiao Ping slander the precious truffle Pierre was also angry, and couldn't help but say loudly: "This is the real Italian white truffle and French black truffle, how can something like a potato be compared to a truffle? You come to smell this smell, how intoxicating!"

Xiao Ping came closer and sniffed it, but he didn't think that the truffle smelled as good as Pierre said, but it smelled of natural gas. But Xiao Ping doesn't care what the truffle tastes like, anyway, as long as it's valuable. He wisely did not argue with Pierre about the taste of the truffles, but simply weighed and paid.

The price of black truffles is $500 per kilogram, and white truffles can be as high as $2,000 per kilogram. The dozen or so truffles in the box are only more than three kilograms in total, but they used up more than 20,000 yuan from Xiao Ping, which is really not cheap. However, Xiao Ping felt that the more expensive the truffle, the better, so that he would earn more in the future, so he was very happy when he paid Pierre.

Before leaving with the truffles, Xiao Ping suddenly remembered something and booked a table for dinner time with Pierre. He promised to invite Song Lei to dinner at Raffles, but he didn't want to give people the impression that words didn't count.

Knowing that Xiao Ping was inviting a young girl to dinner, Pierre's French romantic nature also exploded, patting his chest and promising to prepare an unforgettable dinner for Xiao Ping.

After Xiao Ping came out of Raffles' Restaurant, he called Song Lei and told the other party to invite her to dinner in the evening. Song Lei's interest didn't seem to be very high, but after a little hesitation, she still accepted Xiao Ping's invitation. Xiao Ping was in a hurry to rush back to the hotel to deal with the truffles, and he didn't notice Song Lei's hesitation, and hung up the phone after saying a few casual words.

After returning to the hotel, Xiao Ping hung a "Do Not Disturb" sign on the door and began to handle the truffles carefully. He found two clean containers, tore the white truffle and the black truffle as much as possible, put them in each container, and then added water mixed with spiritual liquid to soak them.

After deciding to cultivate truffles, Xiao Ping learned a lot about this ingredient online. Now he knew that truffles were actually a kind of mushroom, and like mushrooms, they also multiplied through spores. Xiao Ping specified that he wanted to buy ripe and fresh truffles in order to obtain truffle spores that could be used for breeding. As for the problem that truffles can't be planted artificially, Xiao Ping is not worried, with a treasure like the demon refining pot, he is afraid that he can't grow truffles?...,

After soaking for a few hours, the effect of the spiritual liquid began to show, and there were many black spots the size of sesame seeds in the container, which were the truffle larvae that had developed into truffle spores. Cultivating truffle larvae is undoubtedly one step closer to success, which also makes Xiao Ping very happy - not only did the money to buy truffles not be spent in vain, but also had an extra way to make money.

Xiao Ping took the container with truffle larvae into the space of the demon refining pot, and dug the soil under the oak tree more than ten centimeters deep, revealing the oak roots inside. He then sprinkled the larvae of the truffles evenly over the roots of the oak tree and carefully covered the soil with the soil.

In the natural environment, truffles are parasitic on the roots of broad-leaved trees such as oak trees. Xiao Ping simulated the growth environment of truffles, coupled with the magical environment of the demon refining pot space, I believe that it will not take long for the truffles planted to be harvested.

After completing these tasks, Xiao Ping sorted out his instrument and went to Nanda to pick up Song Lei for dinner.

After meeting with Song Lei, Xiao Ping found that she looked preoccupied and often wandered inexplicably. Even when eating at the Raffles restaurant that Song Lei longed for, Xiao Chili, who was in a hot body, was a little distracted. There were several times when Xiao Ping didn't respond to talking to her, which made Xiao Ping himself unhappy, and later he didn't even have any interest in talking.

The meal was extremely dull, but after dinner, Ping still sent Song Lei back to the South Gate very graciously and said goodbye to her politely. It was only at this time that Song Lei, who was very arrogant, noticed that the atmosphere was wrong, and greeted Xiao Ping apologetically: "I'm sorry, I'm in a bad mood these days, don't you mind!"

Xiao Ping suddenly realized: "It's okay, there are always a few days every month, I can understand it." ”

"It's not!" Song Lei glanced at Xiao Ping and said, "It's something in my family, it's annoying!"

Song Lei didn't say anything specific about what happened at home, and Xiao Ping didn't ask. The two tacitly agreed not to talk about this issue anymore, and after a while, Song Lei asked in a low voice: "That...... Will you come to the provincial capital again in the future?"

"Of course!" Xiao Ping said with great ambition: "The focus of my career is developing in this direction, and I will come often in the future!"

Song Lei was amused by Xiao Ping's appearance, and couldn't help but glance at him and said, "Aren't you just here to sell vegetables in the provincial capital, and you are still the focus of your career, you speak better than you sing!"

Xiao Ping said solemnly: "Selling vegetables is my career!"

"Okay, okay, I wish you a prosperous career. After saying a few words to Xiao Ping, Song Lei was in a much better mood, and said to him with a smile: "It's me who is not good today, and when you call me next time you come to the provincial capital, I will invite you to dinner to make amends." ”

Xiao Ping said with a smile: "How can you let the beauty have a treat, next time I will invite you, and call you then." ”

"Okay, then...... See you again. Song Lei reluctantly said goodbye to Xiao Ping, and then walked into the campus with brisk steps, and it could be seen that her mood was much better.

Xiao Ping looked at Song Lei's moving back and slowly walked away, then turned around and left the gate of Nanda University. It's just that he didn't notice that the situation he was talking to Song Lei just now happened to be seen by Tang Jiaqiang, who was passing by.

Seeing Xiao Ping get into the taxi, Tang Jiaqiang, who was hiding in the shadows, gritted his teeth and said secretly: "Why are they still together, doesn't she even listen to the words of her elders? No, she still has to find her uncle again!"
