It must be said that the roast duck from the time-honored brand is indeed much more fragrant than the roast duck you usually eat. The flavor of jujube wood, combined with various secret seasonings, makes the whole roast duck crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.
Just looking at it from the outside makes many people drool.
Before long, after the shop opened in the afternoon, all fifty roast ducks prepared for the day were sold out.
Many of them were buying them whole.
This astonishingly fast sales speed left Sun Lixin completely dumbfounded.
When they were running their Bianyifang shop in Kyoto, they would only sell a little over a hundred roast ducks a day, most of which were bought by locals and tourists.
When Pang Donglai came, he only stood in front of the counter for half a day and sold the equivalent of half a day's sales volume of Bianyifang.
This speed made Sun Lixin wonder if he should just move to Bianyifang and sell roast duck instead.
There's no way to make money as fast as hosting state banquets.
When he closed his stall that evening, Sun Lixin couldn't help but sigh.
"Xiao Lin, your shop is way better than our Bianyifang!"
"I bake one here, and I sell one there."
"I can barely keep up with the speed at which you guys are selling them."
Seeing Sun Lixin's surprised expression, Lin Yifeng smiled and patted him on the shoulder.
"Master Sun, today was just average."
"You're going to get what's coming to you tomorrow!"
Sun Lixin blinked, completely misunderstanding Lin Yifeng's meaning.
The next day, just as the supermarket opened, he was still preparing at the counter when he saw a large group of people rushing in and heading straight for the Bianyifang counter.
As soon as they arrived, a group of people started chattering and asking questions non-stop.
"Master! Do you have roast duck?"
"Give me one! Give me one first!"
"I heard this is the Peking duck prepared by the master chef of state banquets?"
Sun Lixin was momentarily stunned as he looked at the enthusiastic customer in front of him.
Meanwhile, at the newsstand outside Pang Donglai, the Shancheng Minsheng Daily had been updated.
The title on the cover alone is enough to attract attention: "A National Banquet That Ordinary People Can Also Enjoy - Bianyifang Roast Duck".
The entire article introduces Sun Lixin's background, including the story of the time-honored brand Bianyifang.
In addition, in the newspaper photo, Sun Lixin was dressed in a black chef's uniform with a serious expression.
This has sparked curiosity among many people about the roast duck sold by Pang Donglai during the Spring Festival.
As soon as the shop opened in the morning, many customers came to buy roast duck.
As noon approached, the crowds were even larger.
Throughout Pang Donglai, the roast duck stalls were packed with people, while the people selling duck pancakes at the food stalls next door also looked distressed.
Since the roast duck shop opened, he's basically done nothing else all day but make roast duck-flavored pancakes.
In Pang Donglai, these two shops are practically like an assembly line; people buy roast duck and then head straight to their food stalls.
Sun Lixin was working hard at the counter, sweating profusely.
Now he finally understands what Lin Yifeng meant yesterday.
