Lin Zhou was already used to this.
He had already experienced this once before, back in Baihe.
The same applies to Harbin Ice.
The tourists were quite surprised; when they woke up, the whole street looked completely different.
Firstly, there are too many tourists, so to prevent accidents, two more patrol cars have been added to the roads to ensure the safety of tourists.
There were several other stalls next to Lin Zhou's stall.
These vendors know how to do business. After seeing the large flow of people at the Ice and Snow World, they all came here to set up stalls.
Anyway, it's all about setting up a stall, so it doesn't matter where you set up your stall, right? There's a lot of foot traffic here, so business is good. I'll definitely come here.
Some vendors who arrive early to set up their stalls subconsciously reserve a spot for beggar's chicken when choosing their location.
Everyone knows about this beggar's chicken hot pot, which has attracted many tourists to come and take photos.
Harbin Ice has been quiet for so long, but it has finally become a hit online. Everyone has really worked hard for it.
Now it has finally been seen by the people of the whole country.
The hospitable people of Harbin not only organized various street parades, but also brought out ethnic minorities who are not often seen to participate in the activities. The netizens were dazzled and wished they could rush to Harbin to watch.
There's delicious food to eat, fun activities at the Ice and Snow World, and even street parades like this.
This looks interesting!
Especially after airfare prices went up, they were brought down by the Harbin Culture and Tourism Bureau.
It's really hard not to rush in.
When Lin Zhou arrived and saw the people waiting by the roadside, he wasn't surprised at all and simply told Xiao Li to unload the goods.
Compared to when I came yesterday, not many people paid attention to his stall.
The person who arrived today immediately attracted a lot of attention.
"Is this the stall that sells beggar's chicken?"
Wow, such a big setup for setting up a stall!
"These two ovens... the owner looks quite young, not like he appears in the online videos."
"It's probably blackened by smoke."
"I don't know."
Lin Zhou ignored these words and started setting up his stall.
Xiao Li unloaded the heavy items from the stall and then left.
The customers waiting for beggar's chicken couldn't wait for Lin Zhou to set up his stall and lined up one by one.
"Boss, you looked quite young before you got blackened by the smoke!"
Lin Zhou: ...
"I'm quite young."
Lin Zhou felt that the most significant thing about his long time running a stall was that he had a very stable mental state and a good temper.
No matter what kind of diners she encounters, she remains quite composed.
The diners chuckled, completely unconcerned about Lin Zhou, only concerned with when the beggar's chicken would be ready.
"It will take about two hours."
"We just set up our stall, and haven't had a chance to grill yet."
The diners expressed their understanding.
"Then let's get a number first."
Is that okay?
"What's the rush? Can't you see the boss is busy?"
Before Lin Zhou could speak, the diners behind him, seeing how impatient he was, spoke up rather irritably.
“You’ll delay the boss from roasting the beggar’s chicken. You need to put the beggar’s chicken in the oven first, so that it’s roasting smoothly, and then you can get a number so that you can eat.”
The diners present all nodded in agreement.
Knowing that beggar's chicken takes two hours to prepare, everyone arrived very early.
The stall attracted not only a large number of repeat customers, but also a group of tourists and locals who came to join the fun after seeing the popular video.
"Hey, what are you all doing here? What are you queuing up for to eat?"
Locals passing by saw this and curiously gathered around, intending to join the crowd at the back of the line.
He was then stopped by another local who was passing by.
"Why are you, a local, going to join the fun? Those are reserved for tourists from other places. You, a local, can come anytime. Why are you competing with tourists? You're just holding them back."
That makes a lot of sense.
But the locals in the group felt particularly uneasy.
There are too many tourists in Harbin lately.
Many locals do this to entertain tourists who have come from afar.
They spontaneously offered warmth to tourists by the roadside, for example, they packed up boxes of frozen pears and gave them away for free.
Free shuttle service goes without saying.
But only people from other places can enjoy this treatment.
The locals were completely taken aback.
Lin Yi and the others, wearing hats and masks, huddled in the crowd and remained silent upon hearing this.
Xiao Xian took out her phone and started sending messages.
"From now on, let's try not to talk to each other if we can. If someone recognizes us as locals, we'll probably get a beating."
“Yesterday, a local pretended to be a tourist and went begging for food, but he was recognized as soon as he opened his mouth.”
"Hilarious, the worst part is that he thinks he's speaking Mandarin."
"So, don't have any illusions. We all have accents, so to avoid being recognized and competing with tourists for food, we should try not to speak."
Everyone replied with a "received" emoji.
Then he continued to shrink into the crowd without saying a word.
Xiangshan also does the same thing.
Yesterday, Xiang Shan resisted a huge temptation and saved the beggar's chicken for her parents until they got off work, and in doing so, she gained two loyal dining buddies.
I gave Xiang Shan money today so he could come early to queue up and buy two more.
Anyway, the kids are all grown up and have holidays, so it's perfect for running errands.
Xiang Shan was delighted to receive the money.
They resumed their school-era 8 AM schedule, getting up early, having breakfast, and then fully geared up to run out and queue up.
If you want to eat Mr. Lin's food, queuing up is an essential skill.
Having made preparations in advance, Xiang Shan brought the tent she had bought last week.
