He made the concept of numbers a bit too chaotic; he didn’t anticipate how vast a number nearly a thousand people could be.

Looking at the crowd, Lin Yi knew the food definitely wouldn’t suffice, so he simply had more horse meat brought over and roasted on the spot.

They had another live barbecue again.

Immediately, everyone couldn’t help but cheer; although they had confiscated plenty of warhorses and horse meat before, much of it was unsuitable for preservation and was made into jerky.

Moreover, the crucial point was that, because they knew how hard it was to get food and the rarity of meat, people were now eating simple sorghum rice daily rather than indulging in lavish meals of fish and meat as before.

For those children, the delicacies from days ago were unforgettable, and now the coarse rice was somewhat hard to swallow for them. After all, children aren’t like adults who can endure hardships and enjoy pleasures.

Today, the roasted meat came from injured warhorses.

This happened only after Lin Yi gave orders, allowing them to slaughter these horses.

And so, accompanied by a table full of delicious dishes and these roasted horse meats, everyone once again enjoyed a satisfying meal.

The presence of those delicious dishes made everyone eat more, and their faces were full of smiles.

Naturally, Lin Yi didn’t care about these matters. After arranging everything, he took Leng Yu directly back to the City Lord’s Mansion.

He started to personally cook those lobsters.

Because his System Space had plenty of ingredients and materials, it was exceedingly convenient to prepare things.

Not only the materials, but there was also a gas stove available.

Thus, within moments, a fragrant aroma spread throughout the City Lord’s Mansion.

Looking over at the stone table in the courtyard of Chengdu Prefecture.

It was already filled with various dishes that were both fragrant and flavorful.

Garlic steamed lobster, cheesy baked lobster, vermicelli-backed lobster.

And so on and so forth.

In short, a table full of a lobster feast was laid out, each dish not only looked delightful but also smelled so delicious it made one’s mouth water.

Even Leng Yu, a young lady who normally wouldn’t glance at these things, couldn’t help but swallow continuously there now.

It smelled so good; the aroma was truly mouthwatering.

Really, it made one want to just pounce on it and take a big bite.

Previously, she knew Lin Yi could cook these things, creating extremely delicious flavors from these items that smelled both good and bad, but today Leng Yu truly witnessed how delicious these things could be.

"Come on, try it! This should be enough for us for today."

After placing the last dish on the table, Lin Yi wiped his hands while casually storing the cookwares back into the System Space.

Smiling, he looked at Leng Yu, who was already swallowing her saliva nonstop, and spoke.

Not only that, but with a flick of his hand, two bottles of juice appeared in front of him.

Handing one chilled beverage to Leng Yu across from him, he also sat down and unceremoniously grabbed a large garlic lobster.

Under Leng Yu’s gaze, he took a big bite.

As he bit down, suddenly he felt his mouth filled with a fresh and delicious taste, which made Lin Yi close his eyes in comfort instantly.

The taste was simply too delicious, he couldn’t stop eating. After a big bite of lobster, he immediately took another, feeling unable to stop. The experience of eating lobster was just too satisfying; such large lobsters were rarely seen in the future.

Especially since the current sea was unpolluted, there was no need to worry about parasites.

The seafood now could be eaten raw, perfect for sashimi, unlike the polluted oceans of the future, it was top-notch ingredients.

Opposite him, Leng Yu, seeing how Lin Yi ate, could not restrain herself. She carefully picked up a lobster and placed it in front of her.

Following Lin Yi’s example, she took a bite. Instantly, her beautiful eyes also closed in enjoyment, while she chewed, she couldn’t help but let out a satisfying sound.

This made Lin Yi, who was busy munching on the lobster across from her, suddenly startled.

He helplessly looked at the girl, and seeing her condition, he couldn’t help but laugh and cry.

Luckily, he had strong self-control. If it were someone else, they might not have been able to contain themselves.

Of course, it’s all an afterthought, all just a joke.

And so, the two of them, in a whirlwind, almost finished the entire table of lobsters.

Finally, Leng Yu leaned on her chair, couldn’t help but rub her small belly, while softly whining:

"Oh dear, I ate too much. I’m going to burst, I’m going to burst."

Seeing her state, Lin Yi couldn’t help but amusingly tap her little nose:

"Why did you eat so much? No matter how good the food is, you can’t just eat as if there’s no tomorrow, you’ll burst your belly."

After speaking, he himself couldn’t help but burp.

Immediately, Leng Yu opposite him started laughing.

"You’re talking about me, but you ate just as much. Besides, who asked you to make the food so delicious? I couldn’t resist at that moment."

The lobster feast made both of them exceedingly happy, but also incredibly stuffed.

So, Lin Yi simply took her for a walk around the city, and while walking, Leng Yu curiously looked up at Lin Yi and said:

"Brother Lin. Where did you get all those delicacies??

Those plates used for serving food look somewhat familiar?

I think I’ve seen them somewhere, like the ones from the Palace?"
