hello so i make this post cause im curious,everytime i read cn urban novel with sign in, cheat or anything that help mc gain money easily n became rich,usually there will be some kind of culinary like event in the story,where mc participate n there will be somekind of ingredients with ridiculous price tag like million yuan/ ingredient.i mostly read mtl so its kinda hard to search the info in google + the million ingredient its not as simple as like a pound of kobe beef,usually theres more prefix in the ingredient like aged,size n etc so is there really such ingredient in rl with that price tag? thanks n have a nice days
a soup with 18 jin yellow croaker fish, another one somekind of abalone soup with European king sturgeon and three yellow chicken as the broth
is that like how mc tripped a rare thousand year old ginseng in the mountains then sell it. I just searched, 1000 year old ginseng is worth 2.22 million yuan (US$268,440). Hhahaha
Fine dining has nothing to do with the price of the ingredient. Some restaurants charge ridiculous price for a simple dish.
no i mean, it said in the novel the abalone (60 ys dry aged) its cost over 600k yuan,n the yellow croacker have record 600k too for 10 jin n for the 18 jin can easily triple it
Translations routinely mess up ten thousand with million especially in MTL. Additionally, just like in English, saying something is a cost a million dollars is often an exaggeration and just means it is expensive.
Yes, there are expensive stuff like that, like this one for example, apparently it might make you a billionaire XD
Lol I legit thought the title meant 'rare ingredient' in a CN novel aka a concept that is rarely seen in novels. My first answer - Hmmm logic and common sense But then I read the post and Btw I think real saffron can cost like USD 10k. There's some video about it too!
yeah yeah.. found it after searching.. http://www.chinadaily.com.cn/english/doc/2004-12/02/content_396642.htm
