Chapter 23 Saliva Chicken



She wanted to spend more time with Lu Rong and also wanted to help him as much as possible.

So when I heard that Lu Rong was going to renovate, I thought I could do something too.

"I'm the same way, I'm very capable, you know." Chen Ruowei rolled up her sleeves and showed Lu Rong her fair and tender arms.

Um... it seems like you can barely see a little bit of muscle.

"Okay, then please be careful, thank you." Seeing their expressions, it seemed they were determined to help, so Lu Rong could only agree.

Sure enough, Su Tingyun wasn't lying; she was not only beautiful, but also incredibly capable at her work.

They were completely unpretentious, and immediately moved anything they needed.

In contrast, Chen Ruowei, standing to the side, was rather... ordinary.

It seems to be different from what she said; she said she was tired after only two minutes.

Of course, everyone came to help from the bottom of their hearts; no matter what, it was all out of goodwill towards him.

Lu Rong was very grateful to them.

I've gotten to know these lovely classmates through food these past few days.

Before we knew it, we all seemed to have become a united group.

Not long after, the new dining table that Lu Rong had bought arrived.

The new dining tables are made of high-quality boards and look much more upscale than the old small dining table.

There are thirty or forty tables, and each table can seat six people.

This means that more than 200 people can be accommodated to eat on-site at the same time.

The students cheered again, and in less than twenty minutes they had moved all the new tables and chairs and arranged them neatly on the roadside.

Next, they set up sunshade tents and queuing barriers to make it easier for everyone to queue.

The two renovation workers were beaming with joy, as so many people had suddenly come to help with their work, which was originally their own.

They contracted the renovation project here, thinking it would take at least a few days.

It looks like it will be finished tonight, and the key is that the money earned will still be the same.

After all, the price had already been agreed upon.

This made them extremely happy.

Of course, in fact, the students who came to help were even happier than they were.

The faster Lu Rong's shop is set up, the sooner they can eat the boxed meals Lu Rong makes.

At the same time, the better the decoration here, the more convenient it will be for them to eat later.

In short, it's all beneficial and without any harm.

So everyone worked very diligently and there was no slackening at all, resulting in a very high overall renovation efficiency.

That evening at 8 p.m., two renovation workers completed the renovation and upgrade of Lu Rong's shop with the spontaneous help of dozens of students.

The project, which was originally expected to take three days, was completed in just over half a day.

At this moment, the entire store has been completely transformed, giving it the feel of a separate floor.

The kitchen has been completely renovated inside and out, with new tiles laid and the layout optimized for easier cooking.

New dining tables and sunshades have been set up outside, making it more comfortable for everyone to eat here.

Most importantly, the words "Original Intention Kitchen" hanging in front of the storefront made Lu Rong extremely satisfied.

Now it finally looks like a high-end store, a world of difference compared to before.

Although [Chuxin Kitchen] is just a small restaurant, it feels like my own child. Watching it grow and get better little by little fills me with a sense of pride.

Seeing the renovation project successfully completed, the students present couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, which meant that they should be able to open for business tomorrow.

"Senior Lu Rong, now that the renovations are finished, how about we open for business tomorrow?" Xu Fei asked hastily, fearing that Lu Rong might not open so soon.

It's clear that he really enjoys the food at Lu Rong's place.

“We haven’t eaten here for a day and we’re feeling terrible. We would be so happy if we could open tomorrow.”

"Senior Lu Rong, we don't ask for much, we just want to eat a bite of your boxed lunch."

Lu Rong nodded; he was well aware of everyone's thoughts and ideas.

My own boxed lunch is so delicious, it's driving me crazy.

Since everyone has been so kind to me, I can't be stingy: "Thank you all so much for your help today. I'm truly flattered. To repay you all, I've decided to cook a new dish for you all for free tonight. Please do me the honor!"

Upon hearing this, the entire audience erupted in cheers.

"Great! We must try Lu Rong's new dish."

"I'm really in for a treat today, thank you senior."

"We love any dish that Senior Lu Rong makes."

Despite being busy for most of the day, I didn't feel tired at all.

Lu Rong then spent 1,000 points in the system shop to exchange for a new recipe: Sichuan-style Chicken with Saliva.

Mouthwatering chicken combines spiciness, freshness, aroma, tenderness, and crispness, and is known as "famous throughout Sichuan and Chongqing, and its flavor surpasses that of the twelve prefectures south of the Yangtze River".

It is very popular among young people.

Then, with everyone's joint efforts, all the ingredients were quickly prepared.

Then it was Lu Rong's turn to showcase his skills, and countless eyes were fixed on him.

He washed the chicken legs, removed the subcutaneous fat, brought the pot to a boil, and steamed them over high heat for 5 minutes.

Next, flip the chicken legs over and steam them over high heat for another 5 minutes. After turning off the heat, let them sit for another 10 minutes.

Meanwhile, prepare a bowl of ice water with ice cubes and ginger slices, and soak the chicken in it until it is completely cooled.

The process was rather complicated, but it was a piece of cake for Lu Rong.

Then prepare the sauce with chili oil, sugar, vinegar, light soy sauce, Sichuan peppercorn oil, and Shaoxing wine.

Finally, chop the chicken into pieces, pour the prepared sauce over it, mix well, and a mouthwatering chicken dish that smells spicy and delicious is ready.

Everyone present couldn't help but drool.

I was already exhausted after a long day of work, and now with this smell, I couldn't stand it anymore.

There were five or six tables occupied. Lu Rong arranged plate after plate of Sichuan-style spicy chicken: "Alright, please have a taste."

Then everyone started eating like crazy.

"Delicious, so delicious!"

"It's spicy and numbing, so refreshing! I can't stop eating it."

"This is the best Sichuan-style chicken I've ever eaten. I feel so happy."

The portions were generous, and the spicy and numbing flavor was delicious.

Everyone enjoyed the meal immensely and was extremely satisfied.

I'm so happy...
