My Husband, a Marshal: Conquering the Stars with My Culinary Arts-Chapter 579 - 195: Malicious_3

The Minister of the Military discreetly glanced at the Iron-eating Beast, squinting his eyes, feeling a bit indescribable inside.

He actually always thought the Iron-eating Beasts seemed not very smart. Whether it was conceding the major share in their trade with the Blue Star Empire or insisting on visiting Du Xixi’s Food Department first this time, it all showed the Iron-eating Beasts’ "selflessness" and "boundless love" which seemed not very smart.

It was precisely because they were not very smart that they foolishly struggled alone in the interstellar realm all those years. Even though the citizens of their Empire were almost dying out, they still refused to burden the Blue Star Empire, choosing to swallow their difficulties alone.

The Iron-eating Beasts didn’t consider how many ambitious Empires there were in the interstellar realm now; if the Iron-eating Beast Empire didn’t quickly find a backer, it would only become a pawn or sacrifice in the struggle for power.

The Minister of the Military saw that the Iron-eating Beast was still showing sympathetic expressions to Wenren Yu and couldn’t help but smile. However, not being very smart is also a good thing. Whether in diplomatic relations with the Blue Star Empire or in daily interactions with the citizens of the Blue Star Empire, it means the Blue Star Empire doesn’t need to worry too much.

This vigorously striving ally, which can potentially become a powerful nation in the future, is undoubtedly a dream come true for the Blue Star Empire.

Especially since establishing diplomatic relations with the Iron-eating Beast Empire, the Blue Star Empire has gained many Energy Stone veins from them, which is a great benefit to the Military Department.

The Military Department has many weapons and mechas, and their usage often relies on Energy Stones. The newly discovered Energy Stone veins are quite abundant; at least for two hundred years, the Blue Star Empire Military Department’s supply of Energy Stones will not be a concern.

This allowed the Minister of the Military to relax substantially, so when he saw the Iron-eating Beast this time, he had a close intention, and his attitude was full of goodwill.

The Minister of the Military glanced at the Iron-eating Beast and said nothing, but His Majesty Toso, with short water-blue hair on the side, smiled meaningfully and gently said, "He must be too happy to see us coming."

He paused, his smile widening, but his words were rather sharp: "I wonder what kind of person your respected lady really is; if she is not as wonderful and kind as you say, don’t even think about getting a single vote from my ten votes in the Food Department."

His Majesty Toso was undoubtedly very handsome in appearance, but his words were a bit harsh. Even ten Sun Mulin combined wouldn’t be as arrogant as him. However, the Minister of the Military and the Iron-eating Beast seemed accustomed to his sarcastic remarks, and neither of them responded, clearly intending for him to see Du Xixi and then decide.

Soon, it was the turn of these three to go upstairs. The Minister of the Military and the Iron-eating Beast would nod or smile at Wenren Yu, who specially greeted them, but His Majesty Toso went upstairs without looking sideways, without even giving a glance to Wenren Yu, causing Wenren Yu’s smile to become slightly stiff.

The Minister of the Military couldn’t delay and just hurriedly patted Wenren Yu on the shoulder to show comfort, but Wenren Yu didn’t take this matter to heart. After a while, he just shrugged helplessly.

No wonder people say His Majesty Toso of the Tosuo Empire is the most unrestrained; even if the sky falls, he has the courage to curse heaven’s lack of insight. Meeting him today...

Wenren Yu grimaced, indeed as bad as the rumors say.

The malicious His Majesty Toso had already gone upstairs to the second floor, where many people were watching, together with two other mysterious "referees." This was the "Knife Skills Display Area" where Zhang Ye was located. The three followed the crowd and stopped there, even His Majesty Toso, who had appeared indifferent, couldn’t help but react.

Zhang Ye, as a professor in the Food Department, stood in the middle, with his two hands surrounded by male and female students, and in front of each of the five people was a half-high table, allowing them to easily pick up the kitchen knife to cut and carve the ingredients placed on the table.

Before the three arrived, many students had already watched, so Zhang Ye and the five had displayed their knife skills many times. The next demonstration, taught by Du Xixi, was carving.

A kitchen knife, you only need an ordinary kitchen knife to perform those delicate carvings. Du Xixi originally used a knife the size of two palms to carve a carrot into a detailed rabbit, with carrot fur carved lifelike, to the amazement of everyone who then worked hard to learn.

The course teaching was not only a professor’s process but also a learning process. Zhang Ye often thickened his skin to bother Du Xixi, and after ruining countless rabbits and scraping his hands numerous times, he finally honed his skill to carve lifelike sculptures easily.

Whenever Zhang Ye thought about all the ingredients he ruined during those days, unable to waste them, he had to eat at least two giant winter melons, a dozen carrots, and countless assorted "ingredient remains" a day, he couldn’t help but sigh.
