Chapter 458: Immortal Family, All Directions Will Move (Part 2)
"This, this, this, this! Isn't this the popular "Gongfan" brother on Tik Tok?!"
"ah?"
"Every time I do a food broadcast, I always hold the rice cooker!"
"Oh oh oh! It's him! I was wondering why he looked so familiar? Oh my god! Is this Uncle Jiang and Aunt Han's son? Jiang Fuyue's brother?"
“My god, the creation Zhong Shenxiu Quanxiu has gone to the Jiang family.”
"So, the reason I'm still not famous is probably because my last name isn't Jiang?!"
"Hehe, sorry, sister, my last name is Jiang, but I'm not famous either."
"...Oh. You seem to be a little worse off than me."
"?"
"A dad who can cook, a mother who is very clever, a daughter with an incredible IQ, and a lovely son. What kind of a magical family is this?"
As soon as Cao Dou came out of the kitchen, he saw a group of girls screaming at the wall.
he:"?"
"Xiaodouzi is here! Let's go and ask him."
"Xiaodouzi, is Ganfan brother the son of Uncle Jiang and Aunt Han?"
"Is he really that big of a eater? He finishes three rice cookers in one meal?"
"How come he's not fat at all? Uncle Jiang's cooking is so delicious, and Aunt Han's sweet soup is also delicious."
"Is his academic performance as good as his sister Jiang Fuyue's?"
"Are Sister Yue and Brother Chen Xing coming today? Can we see them in person? I'm so excited!"
Cao Dou had never enjoyed such "flowers all around" treatment.
A group of pretty young ladies surrounded him, as if he was a hot commodity and everyone wanted to take a bite.
Very beautiful! Very beautiful!
Perhaps the only flaw was that the young ladies surrounded him and all they asked and called out to was Jiang Chenxing.
He is a handsome young man, a good young man, but he is not as good as a little kid?
"Everyone be quiet! Listen to Brother Dou!"
Well, now he is called "Brother Dou". If he doesn't say something useful, it seems like he would be unworthy of the title of "Brother".
"Ahem—" Cao Dou cleared his throat, "First of all, Chen Xing is indeed the biological son of the boss and the boss's wife."
"Secondly, both the brother and sister will be here today!"
"Finally, please keep your screams down, little fairies."
"Ahhhhh——" I'm sorry, I really can't keep my voice down.
When the fans who were still queuing outside heard how lively the room was, they felt like their hearts were being scratched by a cat, and they all stretched their necks to look inside.
Cao Dou asked the waiter to give the freshly made snowflake crisps to the young lady.
Not only are there people inside, but there are also people queuing outside.
"...It's delicious! It's firm yet soft and fragrant, with a rich milky aroma. Paired with dried cranberries, it's so delicious I almost swallowed it!"
"Really? Let me try it... Hmm~~ It's so crispy, and most importantly, not sticky at all. It's sweet but not greasy."
“The mellow aroma of milk and the richness of cheese, combined with the sweetness of cranberries, all bloom together on the tip of your tongue. It’s absolutely amazing!”
"Hmm! I can't bear to tear it, this wrapping paper is so cute. Brother Dou, can you give me another one?"
Cao Dou: "Of course! These are all served by the boss lady. Thank you for coming here so early in the morning. There are a lot of people in front of you, so you may have to wait in line for a long time. There are free snowflake crisps and lemon mint tea in the tea area. They are all made by the boss lady herself. If you are hungry, go and get them, or ask the waiter to do it for you. You are welcome~"
"Is this made by Auntie Han?! No wonder it's so delicious!"
"There's also mint tea, which is refreshing and cool. Drinking a cup of it will make you feel like you're flying."
The waiter quickly served the snowflake crisps to everyone.
"Ahem... I'll take two, and then I'll bring two more for my roommate. She has a part-time job today and can't come. Last night in the dorm, she saw us discussing what to order today and she burst into tears."
"If it were me, I would cry too."
“Only those who have tried Uncle Jiang’s food will understand how sinful it is to miss it.”
"By the way, can I buy this snowflake crisp? I want to buy some to send home. My mom loves sweets and is a real picky eater."
"Let's wait for Brother Dou to come out and ask him. If you like, just take a few more. They're all free anyway."
"Isn't this a bad idea?"
"Yeah, if I can, I'll buy some to take back. Aunt Han worked so hard to make this, I can't take it for free."
At eight o'clock in the morning at the commercial plaza, a long queue meandered straight from the store entrance to the center of the plaza, circled the fountain, and instead of getting shorter, it became longer and longer as time went by.
The mall manager who had just arrived at work was stunned when he saw it.
"When did our square become so popular?"
"...Manager, it's not the plaza that's popular, it's that store."
"Jiang Ji? Oh no! Quickly get the security personnel in place! How could I have forgotten about this! Quickly! There will be more people soon, and it will be troublesome if we can't maintain order!"
"Okay, I'll call security right away."
Such a long line was not only noticed by the mall management, but also by the Cao Ji employees who were preparing to open next door.
Liu Shanhua had not arrived yet, so the twenty or so waiters were busy running around.
But there was no joy on anyone's face. They only looked sad and sighed.
"What's wrong? Didn't you have breakfast?! Today is the opening of the new store, so cheer up!" The deputy manager clapped his hands, trying to encourage everyone.
Everyone did stand up straight, but their expressions still did not look happy.
"Brother Tan, does this count as a business opening? The one next door is the one that counts!"
The deputy store manager was silent.
"Compared to that place, we don't even look like we're going to open! We're almost bankrupt!"
“As the saying goes, comparing people will lead to death, comparing goods will lead to throwing them away. There is no harm without comparison.”
"It could have been avoided, but they had to collide with it on the same day. Isn't that courting death?"
"Brother Tan mentioned before that it's not good to clash with the right day, but some people don't listen and give orders without permission. What can we do?"
Needless to say, everyone knows that this person refers to Liu Shanhua.
"How can a paratrooper become the store manager right after arriving? Brother Tan has been working hard and diligently at Cao Ji for so many years..."
"Enough!" the deputy store manager, the man known as "Brother Tan," shouted. "Now that we've come this far, there's no point in regretting. We can only grit our teeth and move forward! Get back to work, do your jobs well, and wait for the store manager to come over and see what he has to say."
Everyone dispersed with grumbling.
One of the waiters ran to the door and took a peek at the queue next door. Wow, the line was getting longer again!
"What are you looking at? Why don't you go to the kitchen?"
"Old Liu, look over there, this scene is too exaggerated."
"In the Internet age, traffic is king. It's not surprising at all. Besides, their food really tastes good..." He smacked his lips.
"Huh? How do you know it's good? Have you eaten it?"
"I bought the pancakes from Jiangji. To be honest, ours is just a showpiece. Theirs is what we call delicious."
“Is it really that delicious?”
"You'll know when you try it someday. I'm going to the kitchen to prepare it first. Come in when you've seen enough."
"Hey! Coming right up!"
As he said that, he rolled his eyes, took out his phone and quickly sent a WeChat message to his son -
[Hey, kid, hurry up and get a number at Jiang Ji Private Kitchen at Tianxing Plaza! Wait for me to get off work and we'll go eat together!]
There is no way, both father and son are gourmets. No matter whether they compete or not, or whether they are rivals or not, they will go wherever there are delicious food.
The reply from the other end was super quick: [You know Jiang Ji too? This place has been really popular lately. I was just about to come from school to line up. I just left! Can you tell if it's crowded?]
Dad: [huge amount]
Daddy: [Picture]
Son: [Oh my god! How horrible! I'll just take a taxi here.]
Dad: [Hurry up! ]
…
Besides surprising mall managers and driving competitors away, a long line also has another very obvious benefit: it's eye-catching.
This eye-catching thing easily attracts onlookers.
It will naturally attract customers once you watch it.
for example--
A young mother pushing a stroller was just out for a walk when she was suddenly drawn to the terrifyingly long line. She stood behind it and asked gently, "What are you doing?"
"Waiting in line!"
"Is this Jiangji Private Kitchen?"
"Yeah! Are you a fan of Super Topic too?"
"No... I received their flyer a while ago and thought the names of the dishes were particularly interesting. Since they opened today and I happened to be passing by, I decided to check it out. I didn't expect there was already such a long line."
"Miss, I'm telling you, you've made the right choice to come this time. Let's have some snowflake pastry first, and then I'll tell you how amazing the owner's cooking skills are..."
The queue outside was orderly and the waiting area inside was bustling.
Cao Dou took a look and realized that everything was going as planned, and he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
At 8:30, invited TV reporters and some food influencers also arrived at the scene...
Among them, there is a celebrity with millions of followers and a hardcore gourmet...
