"First and foremost, it's the taste. Even before I knew that Mr. Lin was the one who made the braised pork trotter rice, I was immediately attracted by the aroma and bought a serving without hesitation!"
Before Chu Kuang could finish speaking, the others stopped eating and looked up at him when they heard the word "first" emphasized.
"Then there's the braised pork trotter rice, which can be described in one word: a feast for the eyes, nose, and palate!"
"The aroma goes without saying; it would attract even passersby on the main street. There's a saying that goes, 'Good wine needs no bush.'"
"The taste is beyond words, everyone who has tried it says it's delicious, even those with anorexia would probably eat two bowls!"
"..."
Chu Kuang got more and more excited as he praised.
The expressions on the faces of the diners present were indescribable.
Good lads, they've been waiting for them here!
Wouldn't such vying for favor make their praise seem perfunctory and insincere?
"Boss Lin, if you ask me, be bolder! How can you ask if the braised pork trotter rice is delicious? You should ask if it's the best in the world! Your skills have already surpassed the level of just being delicious; they're approaching the level of a culinary master!"
As soon as Chu Kuang finished speaking, the man next to him eagerly began to praise him.
Lin Zhou watched the mission interface jump to 3/100 in the blink of an eye and then fell silent.
It was a little embarrassing to be praised so harshly to my face.
But it's good that the task was completed.
Where else can you find such a good thing: doing what you love and getting a reward?
So what if it's awkward!
As long as he's not embarrassed, it's others who are embarrassed!
These people, except for those who are a bit socially awkward, don't like to talk, or don't know how to give compliments, were basically praised by Chu Kuangjuan's long-winded speech.
Then Lin Zhou's mission successfully reached 5/100.
The lively atmosphere in the alley did attract passersby; pedestrians who had already walked past turned back after smelling the aroma.
"What's all this commotion about?"
A passerby walked into the alley, saw a group of people gathered in front of a stall, and asked curiously.
Then the diners happily helped Lin Zhou attract customers.
"Boss Lin is selling braised pork knuckle rice at his stall here!"
The diners shouted loudly and excitedly, which immediately attracted the attention of passersby.
"What, Boss Lin!?"
Passersby excitedly repeated the diners' words and started running.
The passersby were not far from the intersection, and when they heard him call out "Boss Lin," they reflexively looked in the direction of the sound.
"Boss Lin? Is he the one who goes viral online for randomly setting up stalls?"
This person was even shouting from the roadside.
This directly caused passersby to look curiously towards the alley entrance.
People passing by smelled the aroma wafting in the air, not knowing where it came from, but just feeling that it smelled delicious because it was mealtime.
But now, with just one shout, everyone knows the aroma is coming from the alley, and they suspect it's Boss Lin setting up his stall.
This is practically a speed bump for pedestrians.
Who wouldn't be curious?
Moreover, if you're just passing by and not a pedestrian, very few people would seriously want to know where this sudden fragrance came from.
But now that someone has reminded me, the aroma of the braised pork trotters rice has suddenly become very appealing.
Sensing a large crowd rushing over, the man who had been calling out to Boss Lin for selling braised pork trotters suddenly froze.
He was just too excited and blurted it out reflexively.
I didn't expect it to attract so many people.
Seeing a large group of people running into the alley, the man felt everyone's eyes on him and immediately gave an awkward smile.
Being stared at like that by everyone, well, it's a little creepy!
"Um, would you believe me if I said I didn't do it on purpose?"
Seeing the sudden influx of people vying for the food, the man realized he had probably gotten into trouble.
What kind of mess is this?!
But in the blink of an eye, passersby ran up to the stall and saw Lin Zhou.
"Mr. Lin, it really is Mr. Lin!"
This excited shout stirred up everyone who followed behind.
"What? It really is Boss Lin?"
"Boss Lin came to Dongyong? Really?"
"Is this for real?"
"Won't Dongyong become famous then?"
Seeing that there were more customers, Chu Kuang and his group of diners consciously brought their food to give up their seats in front of Boss Lin's stall.
The first man to run over looked at Lin Zhou in surprise, seemingly unable to believe that Boss Lin was really standing in front of him.
Although everyone knew that Mr. Lin set up his stall randomly and appeared in any place, they hadn't really thought of some obscure small cities.
There are just too many small cities like this across the country; they probably won't even get a chance to be selected.
I never expected this surprise to come so quickly.
Hello.
Lin Zhou saw that a few more people had arrived and greeted them with a smile.
"It's Boss Lin! My wife talks about finding Boss Lin every day at home, she even uses his picture as her wallpaper!"
One of the diners looked at Lin Zhou's face and was so excited that he was about to call his wife.
Lin Zhou was used to this and calmly started filling his lunchbox with rice.
Then, after the initial excitement subsided, the passersby's attention was drawn to a large pot of pig's feet.
"Boss Lin, give me a plate of braised pork knuckle rice!"
"Mr. Lin, how much is a whole pork knuckle?"
Lin Zhou silently calculated the price, "Sixty-one."
The price wasn't expensive, but the man was really drooling over the braised pork knuckle. The small piece he cut off wasn't nearly enough to satisfy his appetite.
"What about the other parts?"
It was clear that in addition to the pork hock commonly found in pig's feet restaurants, the pot also contained pig's trotters and other parts, which the man looked at curiously.
As darkness fell, the lights on Lin Zhou's stall were turned on.
The warm yellow light made the pig's feet in the pot look even more tempting, with a halo of light that made it hard to resist the urge to have them.
They had almost never seen such a bright red and oily pork knuckle in Dongyong.
And this was done by Boss Lin, how can anyone resist!
"30 for the four points, 25 for the pig's trotters."
In comparison, a pork knuckle is the most expensive.
But this price is really reasonable considering Mr. Lin's culinary skills.
You can tell by the amount of money these people are making.
Chu Kuang and the other college students could only watch from the sidelines.
Winter break starts this month, and I'll be going home soon. I don't have much money left for living expenses.
If you want to buy things like that, your wallet won't be able to handle it.
We can't eat today and not care about tomorrow.
Mr. Lin will be setting up his stall here for the next few days!
Chu Kuang was getting a little anxious as he watched the diners excitedly calling their friends and wives to share the food.
Such a good thing shouldn't be taken by others.
Thinking that some classmates still haven't gone back to their hometowns.
He quickly took a picture and sent it to the class group.
"Across from the school, in the alley next to the Liunian Coffee Shop, Mr. Lin has set up a stall in our city. Hurry up, or the braised pork knuckle rice will be gone!"
