Chapter 49 Foods That Can Make You Embrace Dragon Aura

Yuan Bao was immersed in the immense joy brought by the lottery, and he was so excited that he couldn't sleep all night. The images of those precious prizes kept flashing through his mind, as well as the infinite possibilities they would open up for his gaming journey and real life.

The next morning, sunlight streamed through the window and fell on her face, waking her from her daydreams.

"Little 9, a new day has begun! We must make good use of these gains to make ourselves stronger!" Yuan Bao jumped out of bed, his eyes brimming with energy, and shouted to Little 9, who was floating in the air.

Little 9 was also infected by Yuan Bao's enthusiasm and spun around happily in the air a few times: "Alright, Master! Let's get started right away."

Yuan Bao first picked up the book "Complete Edition of Intermediate Traditional Chinese Medicine Skills," and gently activated and used it as if he had found a treasure, and began to study it intensively in his mind.

The knowledge in the book was like a profound treasure trove. From the meticulous techniques of TCM diagnosis to the ingenious methods of prescription formulation and the precise grasp of acupuncture points, she was completely captivated by it.

Following the instructions in the book, she simulated a traditional Chinese medicine diagnosis scenario in the room, carefully observing the complexion and tongue coating of the imaginary patient, gently placing her fingers on the pulse point to feel the subtle rhythm, and silently reciting the characteristics of the pulse, attempting to initially combine theory with practice.

“Little 9, look, this book describes the pulse signs of excessive dampness in such detail. I feel like I’ve suddenly opened the door to a whole new world. Compared to this, all the superficial knowledge I had of traditional Chinese medicine is nothing.” Yuan Bao looked up, his eyes sparkling with curiosity, and excitedly said to Little 9.

Little 9 nodded in approval: "Yes, young master! With your diligent study, you'll definitely become a master of traditional Chinese medicine in no time!"

After studying traditional Chinese medicine for a while, Yuan Bao went to the fields in the space.

She placed the Space Field Growth Accelerator in the center of the field and set it up according to the instructions.

Then call over the big white goose, the little fox, and the little yellow chick, and teach them how to adjust their respective desired parameters.

A soft light enveloped the entire field, and the seeds that had been quietly sleeping in the soil seemed to be infused with life, beginning to tremble slightly and showing signs of sprouting.

Yuan Bao watched this miraculous scene with anticipation in her heart. She knew that once these rare medicinal herbs and ingredients matured, they would not only provide her with ample raw materials for making high-grade potions and cooking delicious dishes, but also bring her more profits.

After finishing his work in the fields, Yuan Bao remembered the book "The Imperial Culinary Manual" and activated it.

The imperial cuisine was divided into sections on imperial cuisine, delicacies, health-preserving cuisine, and medicinal cuisine, which immediately entered Yuan Bao's mind like a movie.

Yuan Bao then connected with Xiao Xiaobai.

Then, she went to the kitchen, tied on an apron, and enthusiastically prepared to make a classic court dessert—dragon beard candy—according to the secret recipe in the notebook.

The kitchen suddenly became lively as flour, sugar, egg liquid and other ingredients danced merrily in her hands. After a period of careful mixing, kneading and baking, a plate of fragrant dragon beard candies was freshly baked.

Yuan Bao picked up a piece and took a small bite. The soft, sweet taste instantly spread in her mouth. She closed her eyes and savored it. Not only were her taste buds greatly satisfied, but she was also pleasantly surprised to find that her body seemed to warm up slightly. A warm current flowed through her whole body, as if surrounded by dragon energy.

System notification: Imperial Dragon Beard Candy. Eating it will grant you a day of dragon energy blessing, ensuring everything goes smoothly.

"Little 9, this imperial delicacy is truly magical. It not only satisfies your cravings but also has the blessing of dragon energy. You should make more of it in the future." Yuan Bao smiled and picked up another pastry, handing it to Little 9.

Little 9 was already drooling: "Thank you, Master. I need to eat more to become stronger! Give me the rest, give me everything."

"What a glutton! Here, take all of these. I'll make another batch so that Dad, Mom, and my older brother can also benefit from the dragon's aura."

So, Yuan Bao came out of her spatial dimension, went to the kitchen, and quickly brought out the dragon beard candies she had made. She cleared her throat and deliberately raised her voice: "Dad, Mom, Big Brother, come quickly, I made some delicious food for you!" As she spoke, she placed the beautifully packaged dragon beard candies on the coffee table like a child showing off a treasure.

Instantly, a rich, sweet aroma filled the air. Mr. Yuan put down the newspaper he was reading and curiously leaned over: "What is this, baby? Why does it smell so good?" Mrs. Yuan also stopped what she was doing, her eyes full of anticipation.

Yuan Bao explained with a smile, "This is a new imperial pastry I learned to make—Dragon Beard Candy. It's delicious, and it's said to have magical effects. Eating Dragon Beard Candy can bring you dragon energy, making everything go smoothly all day!"

Upon hearing this, Baoguo perked up and strode over from the room: "Really? Is there such a good thing? I have to try it." With that, he picked up a piece of dragon beard candy, put it in his mouth, and chewed it gently.

The soft, chewy texture and sweet taste made his eyes widen instantly, and he couldn't help but exclaim, "Wow, little sister, this is so delicious! I feel warm all over, it really has the blessing of dragon energy, it's really interesting."

Seeing this, Mr. and Mrs. Yuan each picked up a piece and began to taste it.

Aunt Yuan closed her eyes, savoring the taste, her face full of delight: "Baby, your skills are absolutely amazing. I've never eaten such delicious pastries in my life."

Mr. Yuan nodded and mumbled, "That's right, my daughter has grown up and is becoming more and more capable."

The family sat around the coffee table, laughing and chatting, creating a warm atmosphere throughout the living room.

The next day, Yuan Bao made an appointment with the restaurant owner, Mr. Feng, beforehand. When he arrived at the restaurant, Mr. Feng was already waiting at the door.

"Yuan Bao, we've been waiting for you! Come in quickly!" Boss Feng greeted him warmly, his face beaming with smiles.

Yuan Bao walked into the restaurant and went to the kitchen. She washed her hands, tied on an apron, and asked the kitchen staff to arrange the necessary ingredients neatly, ready to show off her culinary skills.

The restaurant's chefs gathered around, their eyes filled with curiosity and anticipation.

Yuan Bao took a deep breath and began to explain: "Masters, today I will teach you how to make a royal pastry - Dragon Beard Candy. This is no ordinary pastry; not only does it taste amazing, but it is also said to bring diners a special experience."

As she spoke, she picked up the flour and began to demonstrate how to precisely control the amount, explaining as she went: "The ratio of flour is crucial; too much or too little will affect the taste. Look, like this..."

The chefs watched intently, nodding occasionally, their pens flying across their notebooks as they jotted down key points.

Yuan Bao then demonstrated each step, including mixing, kneading, and baking, with skillful and fluid movements.

After a flurry of activity, a plate of steaming hot and fragrant dragon beard candies was freshly baked.

Yuan Bao picked up a piece and handed it to the chef closest to her: "Master, please try it and see how it tastes."

The chef took it, took a small bite, and immediately a look of surprise appeared on his face: "Wow, this tastes amazing! I've worked in the kitchen for so many years, and I've never tasted such a unique dessert."

Seeing this, the other chefs also picked up a piece to taste, and for a moment, the kitchen was filled with exclamations of praise.

After tasting it, Boss Feng was overjoyed. He couldn't wait to ask, "Yuan Bao, if we were to introduce this dragon beard candy to our restaurant, it would definitely be a hit."

Yuan Bao smiled and nodded: "Boss Feng, based on the magical properties of Dragon Beard Candy, it's best to limit the supply every day. Scarcity increases value, right? This way, we can maintain its mystique and pique the curiosity of diners, making everyone want to try it. The restaurant's profits will definitely see unexpected results."

Upon hearing this, Boss Feng clapped his hands excitedly: "Great, great, we'll do it your way! Yuan Bao, you're truly our restaurant's lucky star. Please come and give us your guidance more often in the future."

With two large red envelopes stuffed into his arms by Boss Feng, Yuan Bao bid farewell to Boss Feng, put the red envelopes into his spatial storage, and walked out of the White Horse Restaurant, feeling exceptionally cheerful.
