Time passed quietly, and the dock construction workers finally got a short break.
Luo Han and Qin Hua first wiped the sweat from their foreheads, then carefully washed their hands before walking side by side toward Yun Zhizhi's stall.
However, when they strode up to the stall, they were immediately stunned by what they saw.
The diners, some sitting and some standing, were all eating their boxed meals, and each of them had a wolfish expression on their face.
It was as if he had been starving for days, his stomach practically touching his back, without having eaten anything.
Qin Hua couldn't help but exclaim in a low voice, "Wow! Look at them, they look like reincarnated starving ghosts."
"Could the boxed lunches sold at this stall really be so irresistibly delicious?"
"Let's go ask about the price first." Luo Han replied, then strode quickly towards the place where the money was settled.
Before long, they figured out the specific prices for meat dishes, vegetable dishes, and staple foods.
Luo Han frowned slightly, remained silent for a moment as if deep in thought, and then slowly said, "In my opinion, this staple food is very reasonably priced. Why don't we order two servings?"
"In this way, we can fill our stomachs without spending too much money. In addition, with a meat dish and a vegetable dish, we should be able to eat to our heart's content."
After saying that, he turned his gaze to Qin Hua beside him, seemingly waiting for the other party's response.
After hearing this, Qin Hua nodded in agreement: "That's right! And there's a half-price discount now, so each person only needs less than ten coins to enjoy a delicious and hearty lunch with fragrant rice, meat, and vegetables!"
Luo Han looked up and around and noticed that more and more people were coming to buy boxed lunches.
So he hurriedly urged, "Let's go, there are more and more people. Let's hurry up and find Manager Song to get our number plates, or we'll sell out soon."
Qin Hua replied, "Okay, let's go quickly then."
After saying that, the two hurriedly walked towards the direction where Steward Song was.
Meanwhile, other construction workers, like Luo Han and Qin Hua, first stood at a distance and carefully observed the site before approaching to inspect it.
Not long after, more than twenty construction workers came excitedly to buy boxed lunches, holding the number tags they had just received from Manager Song.
Their actions were like a pebble thrown into a calm lake, instantly attracting the attention of many people around them.
Soon, everyone learned that only construction workers working at the docks were eligible for the half-price discount offered by Yun Zhizhi, and they couldn't help but show envious expressions.
He kept lamenting why he didn't have such good luck.
Fifteen minutes later, Luo Han quickly ordered a fragrant bowl of rice and a refreshing cold dish of fern root noodles.
Then, he quickly walked to the food area and carefully selected a plate of tempting spicy shrimp and a plate of delicious eggplant and green beans.
Finally, carrying a full plate of food, he casually found an open grassy area, sat down, and prepared to enjoy this delicious and inexpensive lunch.
Qin Hua carried the food she had prepared, and after scanning the room, she finally spotted that familiar figure.
Luo Han was sitting there steadily, eating heartily and enjoying himself immensely.
Qin Hua quickly walked over and sat down next to him, smiling as she asked, "Brother Luo, how was the spicy shrimp you ordered?"
Because the spicy shrimp are deep-fried, Luo Han doesn't need to peel the shrimp shells when enjoying them, making them very convenient to eat.
He devoured nearly half of the large spoonful of spicy shrimp in a flash.
Upon hearing Qin Hua's question, Luo Han hurriedly put down his spoon and answered while chewing, "The taste of this shrimp is simply unbeatable! Not only is it exceptionally fresh and delicious, but the shrimp meat is also firm and chewy, with a touch of crispness. Coupled with its unique spicy and crispy texture, it's truly irresistible!"
"Most importantly, you can't taste any fishy smell at all."
As he spoke, he enthusiastically picked up a large shrimp and placed it on Qin Hua's plate, saying, "Come on, little brother, you should try it too. I guarantee you'll love it!"
Qin Hua smiled and nodded, replying, "Okay, thank you, Brother Luo!"
Immediately afterwards, not to be outdone, he picked up a piece of salt-baked chicken from his plate and handed it to Luo Han, saying, "Brother Luo, you should try my salt-baked chicken too. Look at the tempting color and the aroma that's wafting over. It must taste pretty good."
Luo Han took the salt-baked chicken and took a bite without hesitation.
In an instant, his eyes seemed to light up, sparkling, and he mumbled an indistinct praise: "Hmm... this salt-baked chicken is just as good as that spicy shrimp."
"This chicken has crispy skin and tender meat, and even the bones are infused with a savory flavor. It's so delicious and fresh!"
In just fifteen minutes, the two of them had devoured the entire plate of food, leaving not a single grain of rice or a single fern root noodle.
Luo Han was satisfied and licked his lips: "After eating this boxed lunch, I can't even look at that hard, rock-hard pancake anymore."
Qin Hua was still savoring the moment when he heard this and said, "This is the first time in my life I've ever eaten such delicious food. Even the vegetarian dishes are much better than what you get at those restaurants."
"Now you can buy a meat dish for only four coins, it's such a great deal."
"How about we come back to eat tomorrow? I feel so energetic after this meal."
Luo Han thought for a moment and said, "Those ordinary people are so envious of us for being able to enjoy a 50% discount. We should make good use of this benefit."
Qin Hua blinked, leaned closer, and asked eagerly, "How do I use it?"
Luo Han glanced around and, seeing that no one was paying attention, lowered his voice and said, "My family hasn't had meat in a long time. Taking this opportunity, I plan to bring my wife and son here tomorrow to buy a large boxed lunch so the three of us can eat together."
Qin Hua grinned: "Brother Luo, that's a brilliant idea! Now my family can also enjoy restaurant-quality food."
"No, I have to bring my younger brother and sister tomorrow too."
I also need to pack some food to take back to my parents so they can try it.
After the discount, you can buy a large portion of staple food for just one cent.
He planned to pack more staple foods to take home.
If Yun Zhizhi knew what they did, she would definitely give them a thumbs up: What geniuses!
