Initially, Loya had resorted to hiring paid commentators and inciting her fans to defame Liao Ning. However, she never expected that Liao Ning’s ancient delicacies would constantly surpass expectations and gain widespread recognition.
The memory of the king’s furious expression made Loya tremble once again. Deep down, she knew she wasn’t a true princess. If she couldn’t find a way to reconcile with the king, she might face expulsion from the royal family.
Gazing at the Rambutan Plants in her hand, Loya took a deep breath. Ke Lang was right. What did it matter if ordinary citizens favored Liao Ning? With the support of the nobility, she was the true princess of the empire.
That night, Loya devoted herself to studying the recipe provided by the company. Contemplating her options, she made up her mind to outshine Liao Ning.
Following Liao Ning’s live-stream, the empire’s citizens flocked to purchase Crucian Carps in abundance. Many even discovered Liao Ning’s previous video on salted fish and began using Crucian Carps as a substitute.
As Liao Ning’s reputation continued to soar, more and more residents of the empire joined the rebel army, including those living in close proximity to the army’s base. The scene was one of bustling prosperity.
Under such pressure, Loya commenced her own live-stream. She had planned to make it an extravagant affair, targeting the nobility. With their support, she had nothing to fear.
In her quest for a flawless appearance, Loya began applying makeup two hours in advance and adorned herself in a custom-made fish-scale dress.
When she appeared magnificently before the camera, the comments overflowed with praise.
[The Princess of Dawn is absolutely stunning. Truly befitting of her royal status!]
[Could that dress be made of genuine fish scales? Oh my, what must be its cost?]
[I eagerly await the princess’s live-streams every day. They are simply captivating.]
As Loya soaked in the adoration, her smile widened.
“This dress is crafted from precious fish scales. It exhibits a mesmerizing array of colors under different light refractions.”
She nervously toyed with the hem of her dress, mesmerized by the colorful lights it emitted.
Eventually, the photographer cleared his throat, urging Loya to get to the point.
“What I have here for all of you today are these incredibly precious Rambutan
Plants.”
Loya displayed a large fruit in her hand. “Although it may resemble lychees to some extent, it is juicier and meatier. Most importantly, it is highly nutritious and exceptionally rare. Only 100,000 catties of red gallbladder are harvested from the depths of the elven forest each year. It is often referred to as the ‘beauty saint.”‘
Next, she presented a jar of sugar crystals. “This is ice crystal sugar, originally sourced from the Empire’s snow-capped mountains. It must be stored in the crystal jar at a constant temperature of 50C to maintain its flavor.”
“We begin by boiling it with mountain spring water, followed by adding two ice crystal sugars. With the help of crystal rods, we stir until the sugar completely dissolves.”
“Then, we add the processed red gall fruit meat into the mixture. After simmering over a high flame, we reduce it to a low flame and continue simmering for five minutes.”
“However, it’s crucial to let it cool before pouring it into a crystal cup. You can refrigerate it for an enhanced taste!”
To emphasize her status, Loya had replaced all the utensils with crystalware. Even the stirring stick was adorned with sizeable gemstones.
She retrieved a pre-made Rambutan Plants beverage, its pink hue exuding a dreamy quality.
This time, Loya remembered to activate the five senses sharing system. “Everyone, come and give it a try. On a scorching summer day, this drink will surely refresh you and quench your thirst!”
Rambutan Plants were already scarce fruits. When combined with the sweetness of ice crystal sugar and the enhancement from mountain spring water, the beverage boasted an extraordinary flavor.
[What kind of beverage is this? Isn’t it too extravagant?]
[I’m absolutely in love with this drink. It’s definitely a luxury only the nobles can savor!]
[I’ve lived for over three decades and haven’t laid eyes on a single Rambutan Plant. I guess my only chance to try it is through this live-stream.]
[Indeed, Your Highness. At the moment, acquiring Rambutan Plants would require my entire family’s annual salary. It’s simply beyond my means.]
[Why did the princess used to recommend beautiful and affordable ancient delicacies, but now it’s all about luxury?]
[What do you know? Are a few modest dishes with star coins enough? How outdated!]
However, Loya disregarded the comments from the commoners. “While the Rambutan Plants may be costly, they are exceptional. When it comes to indulging in ancient delicacies, we naturally aim for superior quality. Not everything can be consumed casually.”
“Furthermore, Rambutan Plants are incredibly scarce nowadays.. If everyone wishes to savor the same drink, you have to seize the opportunity!”
