"Mister, you are mistaken. I just found this when I went up the mountain. Everyone here can testify for me," Li Chengqian said resolutely.

"Moreover, this is not an imported type. This is grown here in our country." Li Chengqian picked up a truffle and placed it in front of Huang Daliang, pointing at the yellow dots on the cap.

Huang Daliang took a closer look and indeed found characteristics typical of white truffles unique to China. "Not bad! But this cap..."

"It's just a little bigger. What's so strange about that?" Li Chengqian interjected. If he allowed him to continue, he would be exposed.

"Alright, if there's nothing else, we have to continue preparing the ingredients." Li Chengqian didn't give Huang Daliang a chance to speak at all.

He was telling him directly and indirectly: Go away, you're not welcome here.

"Little brother, since you picked up this truffle from the mountain, how about you sell it to me?" Not only did Huang Daliang not leave, he even deliberately walked closer and said to Li Chengqian with a smile.

"Not selling, not selling!" Li Chengqian rejected Huang Daliang's proposal without even thinking.

He took the risk of using the Farmer's profession skills to grow these precious ingredients. They are meant for his parents' consumption, and not for sale.

Moreover, with the Master of All Professions game, earning money would be a breeze after he took on a worker-related profession. Therefore, after Li Chengqian was reborn, he never bothered himself with money.

As long as he upgraded his profession step by step, he would have an endless supply of money in the future.

"10,000 yuan per catty! Sell it all to me!" Huang Daliang bidding directly.

"Hiss..." Huang Jingjing and Jian Qingli, who were standing not far away, heard this. Their eyes were popping out as they sucked in a breath of cold air.

Ding Ling put down the fist-sized truffle in her hand carefully.

"I said I'm not selling. No matter how much you offer, I'm not selling," Li Chengqian said with displeasure.

"Ding Ling, ignore him. Continue to prepare the ingredients according to my instructions! I picked this up from the mountain. It didn't cost a single cent!"

"Li Chengqian, this is too valuable. I can't handle it well." Ding Ling said softly.

"Little brother, I'm Huang Daliang, the chef of Tianyi Daliang Restaurant. I have experience in handling white truffles. Why don't I help you handle it? What do you think?" Huang Daliang continued to say.

"I don't have any other motives. It's mainly because when I see such good ingredients, I really can't help but want to get involved." Huang Daliang was all smiles. Seeing that Li Chengqian didn't object, he took over the position where Ding Ling was standing.

He picked up the paring knife and twirled it skilfully around the white truffle. Instantly, a thin layer of almost transparent skin was shaved off.

If it was in his shop, this layer of skin alone was enough for a portion of ruffle rice. He couldn't even bear to throw it away.

After Huang Daliang dealt with the ingredients at an extremely fast speed, he looked at the condiment box that Li Chengqian's family had brought and frowned. Firstly, it was ordinary, and secondly, there was too little variety. It was only good enough for preparing ordinary food. But If it was used to prepare truffles, it was simply blasphemous!
