Pan Yuan felt his hungry stomach instantly soothed by the delicious food.
He let out a sigh of immense enjoyment.
"This is so delicious, bro! Don't rush off, I'm still fishing. I'll bring you a few more later. Oh my god, I've never had such a fragrant burger!"
Pan Yuan wolfed down his food, holding the hamburger in both hands and taking big bites.
Seeing that he was enjoying his food, Lin Zhou smiled and waved his hand.
"It's alright, you gave me plenty of fish."
For Lin Zhou, setting up a stall is part of his life, and it's not all about business. It's also interesting to have an older brother trade fish for a hamburger with him.
If he hadn't met this person, he would have almost forgotten that he could go fishing for fun.
I played games at home for three days straight after it rained, and I started to feel a bit dizzy.
"Why are you setting up a stall here with such a delicious burger? There are still people on the bridge, and at most there are fishermen like me under the bridge. Look down, the faint lights along the riverbank are all fishermen night fishing."
Lin Zhou; ! ?
Is that true?
"There are other people here? I thought I was the only one."
While talking to his older brother, Lin Zhou took a bucket off the tricycle, preparing to pour the fish into it, and returned the fish basket to his brother.
"By the way, I have a charger on my tricycle. Do you need to charge it?"
Lin Zhou then changed the subject, avoiding a direct answer as to why he set up a stall in this godforsaken place.
"There's no charger, right?" Pan Yuan was also a little tempted.
But then I realized I hadn't brought my charger either, so I let it go.
"I don't have it."
Lin Zhou has a compulsion to always have his phone fully charged when he goes out, so he usually doesn't carry a charger or power bank.
"It's okay, it's okay. My phone often runs out of battery and shuts down when I'm fishing. Are you coming again tomorrow, brother? I'll buy you a burger then."
As they were talking, Pan Yuan had already finished a hamburger.
Although I wasn't very full, I felt very satisfied.
He couldn't bring himself to ask for another hamburger, so he decided to come back tomorrow.
“I’ll be here at 10 o’clock.”
"That's good!"
Pan Yuan was very happy.
I was so lucky today! I found a great spot to bait the hook, but I only caught a few small fish. When I got hungry, I even ran into a hamburger vendor. It was amazing!
After Lin Zhou saw Pan Yuan off, the area in front of the stall fell silent again.
Fortunately, today was his first day setting up a stall. He doesn't prepare too many ingredients on the first day of each week; he's just testing the waters.
It's clear that business won't be very good tonight.
Lin Zhou pulled out a chair, sat down, and started scrolling through videos on his phone as if he was just slacking off.
Just then, a person passing by on their way home from get off work saw a light under the bridge and became curious. Following the light, they found Lin Zhou's stall.
I thought I was going to have a thrilling adventure in the middle of the night, but it turned out to be a strange person setting up a stall here!
"Wait, brother, you're setting up a stall here in the middle of the night?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the man suddenly realized what he had said.
That's not right!
How could a normal person set up a stall in this godforsaken place in the middle of the night? Could it be one of those plainclothes police officers on a mission to keep watch, as some people say online?
Passersby looked at Lin Zhou with suspicion.
To be honest, Lin Zhou was even more surprised than Lin Zhou when he saw him.
"This place is so nice! It's near the lake, cool and quiet."
Passerby: ......
Hearing this explanation, he wanted to complain, but then he thought of his own guess and became even more suspicious, his face turning red with suppressed anger.
"Um, how much are the hamburgers?"
He's a very curious person by nature, otherwise he wouldn't have come looking for the light under the bridge in the middle of the night.
This leads to speculation, and people want to test whether their speculation is correct.
"Okay, one hundred each? You can choose any flavor and assemble them according to your own taste."
"No, one hundred and one?"
The expressions of passersby were completely out of control.
This isn't about doing business, it's about robbing people!
They were definitely plainclothes officers; they just didn't want to do business.
Should we just leave and not disturb them while they're on their mission?
"Yes, I guarantee it's great value for money. You'll want to eat it again and again. If you don't like it, you can hit me."
The passerby, who was about to give up, became curious again upon hearing this.
What gives you the audacity to say that!
He wanted to see what kind of stuff he could get from a 100-dollar hamburger.
"Give me one!"
Passersby approaching the stall saw that there were quite a lot of ingredients on the counter, with a row of condiments laid out.
"Okay~ Customer, please decide which one you'd like to eat."
"They have double cheeseburgers, as well as American-style burgers, avocado burgers, black truffle burgers..."
Following Lin Zhou's explanation, passersby looked at the introduction on the small blackboard and were immediately drawn to the black truffle burger.
He had only heard of this stuff before, and his impression was that it was a high-end ingredient, very expensive, and only available in high-end restaurants.
He had never eaten it before, and he never expected to find it at a roadside stall.
"Then let's have this black truffle burger."
"OK, you can assemble any of the ingredients here."
"OK."
The passerby then added a soft-boiled egg, bacon, and chili rings.
This was the first hamburger sold tonight, and Lin Zhou was very happy.
Turn on the heat and start frying the bread.
The round bread, when held in my hand and squeezed, deflated; it was softer than I could have imagined.
Once placed on the iron plate, it returned to its original state.
Looking at the excellent bread, the passerby fell into deep thought.
This burger looks so much like those trendy burger-making videos I've seen online.
Then, Lin Zhou took out a container of beef, took a piece of beef, shaped it into a patty, and pressed it onto the iron plate to heat it.
"Would you like a pressed meat patty or a thick meat patty?"
Is there any difference?
The passerby was a little confused. He usually ate hamburgers from fast food restaurants and had never eaten a 100-yuan hamburger before.
"Press-type patties are made by pressing the beef patties down to the thickness of a paper sheet. They have a pure caramelized flavor. Thick patties allow you to choose how well they are cooked. The beef is of very high quality. If they are medium-rare, you can taste a milky flavor. They are tender and juicy."
The passerby chose the press-type meat patty without any hesitation.
He doesn't like eating food that's undercooked.
"Okay."
Upon hearing the customer's words, Lin Zhou took the tools and pressed the meat patty to its thinnest possible. The hot plate sizzled loudly, billowing white smoke, making it impossible to see the beef on the hot plate.
However, the combination of high temperature and beef still produces a very strong caramelized aroma.
Another fisherman nearby saw white smoke rising from a spot on the other side of the lake and thought it was on fire.
Startled, he dropped his fishing rod, grabbed a bucket of water, and ran over to put out the fire.
Then I saw someone selling hamburgers at a stall.
The rising white smoke is from the beef patties being cooked on the sizzling plate.
He rushed over hurriedly, carrying a bucket of water, and appeared in the sight of Lin Zhou and the passersby.
They looked at each other, somewhat bewildered as he carried the bucket of water.
The fisherman carrying the bucket: ......
Why isn't there even a hole in the ground?
