Who could bear such injustice!
Xiao Xian definitely can't.
"How about this, you guys eat first, and I'll go buy two more."
After learning how delicious beggar's chicken is, Xiao Xian felt that the fact that he could remain calm and not go crazy after all the beggar's chicken was snatched up, and only wanted to buy two more, really showed that he was a very good-tempered person.
"Well, you've already bought two, I can't accept that. Let me go buy them. Tell me where."
Lin Yi, who had eaten quite a bit, elegantly wiped her mouth and said.
Their expressions also showed a sense of lingering enjoyment.
This beggar's chicken is really good.
A chicken doesn't make up a very large portion.
An adult male can eat a whole one.
Two servings for six people—honestly, that's simply not enough.
They finished it in just two bites each.
Now everyone's appetite has been stimulated.
Logically, you should be able to eat as much as you want.
With beggar's chicken in front of me, and looking at the braised and stir-fried dishes on the table, I really had no desire to eat them at all.
Foods that I used to think were pretty good, now look completely lacking in color, aroma, and flavor compared to this beggar's chicken.
Moreover, I just ate beggar's chicken, and the aroma of chicken still lingers in my mouth. Eating anything else feels like making things difficult for myself.
"I don't think it's that important whether we have a get-together or not. Let's fill our stomachs first."
"Yes, yes, let's go together."
Upon hearing that Xiao Xian was going to buy beggar's chicken, the other friends couldn't sit still any longer.
Everyone's still craving it.
Xiao Xian: ……
"Alright, let's go together."
Knowing that everyone hadn't had enough to eat, Xiao Xian nodded, and everyone packed their things together, ready to leave.
When we arrived at Lin Zhou's stall.
Looking at Lin Zhou, Lin Yi and the others couldn't help but feel sorry for the hard work of setting up a roadside stall.
"Boss, do you still have beggar's chicken? Six, please."
Lin Zhou: "Yes, but we'll have to wait."
The previous batch of 20 beggar's chickens has already sold out, and the next batch is still roasting in the oven.
It needs to bake for at least another hour.
"Okay, how long will it take?"
Having already tasted the delicious beggar's chicken, the group was quite patient when they heard they had to wait.
"About an hour."
After Lin Zhou announced the time, Xiao Xian and the others stood by the stall and waited.
They squatted down one by one beside the sidewalk.
Six people squatted in a row.
Lin Zhou stood behind the stall, and could only see a row of round heads.
One of them had a noticeable parting on the top of his head, suggesting he might be experiencing some balding.
Lin Yi and the others didn't discuss the boss's image in front of him.
In private group chats, messages are being sent out at breakneck speed.
"Xiao Xian's description is spot on. The boss's voice sounded like he was in his early twenties, but he looked like he was in his forties."
"It must be the experienced master craftsman!"
Lin Yi said with absolute certainty.
Then, before anyone could ask, he started typing furiously on his phone.
"Think about how delicious the beggar's chicken we just ate was. It's not an easy dish, right?"
"The boss must have been making this for a long time. Maybe he's been researching beggar's chicken for a long time to make it taste this good. Someone with this skill must be at least fifty years old."
"It's probably just a natural voice. Some people's voices are just like that, and they might still be like that when they get old."
Lin Yi's analysis makes sense.
He persuaded the others.
"I guess the boss wasn't born in a good era. If he lived now, he could become famous just by grilling his voice. He could make a fortune online just by live streaming his voice without showing his face."
"Why do people need to work so hard setting up stalls everywhere, exposed to the wind and sun? It's very tiring."
"Indeed, there are many audio or virtual live streams now."
"So this teaches us a lesson."
"Don't date online if you don't want to. A nice voice doesn't mean someone is good-looking. They could very well be an old man selling pancakes on the street."
Upon hearing this, everyone gave him a thumbs up.
Lin Zhou was unaware that these "Sleeping Dragons" and "Young Phoenixes" had already elevated his age to that of an old man.
They were still dutifully adding firewood to the oven every now and then.
Then these people got bored while waiting.
Curious, they gathered around to watch Lin Zhou's actions.
"Boss, do you cook your beggar's chicken with firewood?"
Although I've heard that beggar's chicken is roasted in a fire.
However, in modern times, this dish is rarely found in most restaurants.
Even if they did, they wouldn't use a whole fire in a modern kitchen to roast them.
They are mostly made using an oven.
So when they saw Lin Zhou licking firewood in the oven, they were very curious.
“And charcoal.”
Lin Zhou not only put in firewood but also charcoal.
Different types of wood produce different aromas when burned, which in turn affects the flavor of beggar's chicken.
"It really is! The stove is like a bonfire, but there are even more people roasting in the stove."
The group enjoyed the spectacle, and the delicious food was right before their eyes.
They watched the delicious food slowly take shape, and they really couldn't bear to look away.
I never realized that looking at a barbecue grill could be so interesting.
That's really interesting!
Then every time Lin Zhou added firewood, they would gather around to watch, watching with great interest.
By the time Lin Zhou realized something was wrong, the faces of these people were all a bit blackened by the smoke.
Lin Zhou: ...
"Um, didn't you guys notice anything wrong?"
Lin Zhou asked them, looking conflicted.
Xiao Xian and the others looked at Lin Zhou with confusion after hearing his words.
Something's not right? What's wrong?
The bewildered Xiao Xian and the others exchanged glances.
