After Lin Zhou finished speaking, the uncle nodded happily.
"Yes, yes, you can assemble other parts, right?"
"OK."
Lin Zhou served the rice and then started scooping out the pig's feet.
The pig's trotters, with their rosy color and plump skin, were placed on the cutting board and even wobbled a couple of times before going limp and juicy. They were so tender and bouncy that it was truly a sight to behold.
The middle-aged man swallowed hard.
My goodness, how come this braised pig's trotters are so shiny and oily? The aroma of the steam is just slapped onto people's faces.
It was so tempting that people's appetites surged, and their stomachs rumbled repeatedly.
Some people even skipped lunch because of this bowl of braised pork trotters rice, and now they're all hungry from the aroma.
Lin Zhou picked up the cleaver and, without much effort, chopped the rice neatly. He then cut the rice into rolls and added some greens.
The last step is to add ingredients.
"What do you want? Four items, including pig's trotters."
"Is it okay if we have both?"
Before Lin Zhou could even speak, the uncle finished speaking.
The college students behind them couldn't calm down.
Everyone has come all this way for this braised pork knuckle. There are still so many people behind us. If everyone joins, then there won't be any left for the others. So that won't work!
They were originally ahead of the older man in line, but they didn't wait outside because it was cold.
It's bad enough that the older man got first place, but now he wants to add all the points.
People might not care about other things, but Mr. Lin's braised pork trotter rice is really not good.
I can't sleep if I eat even a little less.
So just hearing those words makes me feel uncomfortable all over.
One by one, they looked at the uncle with condemnation.
"Uncle, many of us haven't eaten yet."
"That's right, that's all the food we have, including four pieces of meat and pig's trotters. We don't even know if it's enough for each of us to have one."
Lin Zhou shook his head helplessly.
The reason he limits purchases whenever there are many people is because he understands the psychology of these diners. They stare at the food in his pot like they're watching their own children.
For DSLR cameras, taking even a single extra bite is like taking their life.
Gradually, Lin Zhou became a master of balancing things without any formal instruction.
His hands are incredibly steady.
Every serving of food was served perfectly. For example, the meat in the braised pork trotter rice was cut and placed on the scale with almost no error, which shows how steady the hand was.
"I need four points."
The clarity of the college students was fully revealed at this moment.
The uncle, feeling a little embarrassed, asked for four o'clock, and then a pork trotter rice was packed up. The portion was so generous that it felt heavy in his hand.
Then came Chu Kuang.
"Boss, I'd also like a braised pork knuckle rice bowl and four o'clock."
We ate pig's trotters yesterday, so today Chu Kuang ordered a four-piece set meal. The four-piece set meal looked to have more meat than pig's trotters, and although it was more expensive, this cut was indeed of higher quality.
Even when packed in a lunchbox, the braised pork trotter rice still couldn't be sealed properly.
Chu Kuang took the lead, ignoring his classmates, and went straight to the coffee shop to eat his meal.
Previously, Chu Kuang felt that eating pork trotter rice in a coffee shop was too strong in smell and difficult to dissipate, which would affect customers who came to the coffee shop in the evening.
What if the strong aroma of the food affects the boss's business?
After all, many people who go to coffee shops are there for dates or to study, and they value the quiet atmosphere of the shop.
If it's like a restaurant, it will negatively impact the owner's business.
But the boss is a foodie and doesn't care at all.
So they didn't bother going far and instead took the pork leg rice they had just bought back to the coffee shop and started eating.
Lin Zhou cut the Four-Pointed Gold in half and then casually chopped it into several large pieces. Each piece was full of tendons and meat, sticky and tender. You could pick it up and put it in your mouth. The chubby skin was like eating jelly. You could slurp it into your mouth in one go.
Then chew, the soft and chewy texture dances on your tongue, the meaty aroma fills your mouth and teeth, and the more you chew, the more fragrant it becomes. At this time, take a bite of rice soaked in soup, and it is so delicious that you can't help but close your eyes and shake your head.
I've lived for over twenty years and never eaten anything this delicious.
It's the kind of meal that evokes a sense of wonder with every bite.
Everyone was queuing up at the stall, and everything was fine until it was Xie Hong's turn.
"Mr. Lin, do you know how much I've missed you!"
She leaned against the stall cart and started crying, grabbing tissues from somewhere and sobbing pitifully.
Although his voice was trembling with tears, he spoke clearly, and everyone could hear him clearly.
Lin Zhou shook his head with a helpless smile.
"What a coincidence, you two go to school in Dongyong?"
I never expected to run into this again.
Lin Zhou had a pretty deep impression of Xie Hong and his group.
Back when he was selling porridge up the mountain, everyone followed him for several days. He's a college student, he has so much free time.
"Yes, our school is right across the street."
Lin Zhou hadn't really noticed this before. No wonder there were so many students; it turns out there's a university nearby.
Although Dongyong City is small, Qingda University, located in the city center, is a first-tier university in the province and is a good university.
"We know that Boss Lin had already gone home for winter vacation when he came to set up his stall, and then he came back. It's a sad story!"
Lin Zhouzheng felt sorry for them.
His kind-hearted roommates behind him sneered.
"What kind of nonsense is this?"
He was afraid that if they told me their heartbreaking stories, I wouldn't be able to hold back my tears.
"Our roommates dragged us to Harbin on a tour. As soon as we landed, before we could even rest, we found out about Boss Lin's stall at the school. The whole trip was incredibly stressful. That tour group perfectly illustrated what it means to get something for nothing. They only cared about the price and didn't care about the tourists' feelings at all. We couldn't eat or sleep well, and we were constantly worried about being sold off!"
Do you know what we've been through these past few days?!
The surprised looks of the students in the crowd who were listening to Xiang Shan's roommates' tearful complaints all fell on Xiang Shan.
Facing everyone's gaze as they looked at the warrior, Xiang Shan lowered his head and dared not speak.
"I suddenly realized that the name Xiangshan was not well chosen, and the things she does feel very out of place."
"Brother, it's not easy for you to be alive and eat Boss Lin's braised pork trotter rice!"
"Listening to your roommates' description, I suddenly feel that you have a really good relationship in your dorm. The fact that they didn't kill you is true love."
"You guys are really something else!"
Xie Hong and his group originally thought they were already having a tough time.
After listening to what Xiang Shan's roommates said, they thought it was alright.
There are even people who are worse off than them.
The sobbing suddenly stopped.
So Xie Hong silently took out a tissue from his pocket and handed one to each of Xiang Shan's roommates.
Because they really looked like they were about to break!
"Thank you, we're fine."
"We've come to terms with it. At least after all the trouble, we still got to eat Boss Lin's braised pork trotters rice. So all the suffering wasn't for nothing!"
"It's okay, everyone hurry up and line up. I'll feel uncomfortable if I'm late in getting a bite."
