” “Wow, your place is really crowded.”
After waiting in line for what felt like forever, it was finally Zhou Tianhao’s
turn, he couldn’t help but tease.
“Brother Zhou, you’re here!” Qin Lang smiled, “What would you like?” “One crab roe fried rice and two pounds of gravy seafood!” Zhou Tianhao stated his orders with anticipation.
“Alright!” Qin Lang responded and got straight to work.
Meanwhile, Zhou Tianhao looked around with amusement.
The first night Qin Lang attempted to set up his food stall, Zhou had been late because he was visiting Yue Hu City’s second-level food recommender, so he only got to taste the delicious crab roe fried rice but missed out on the gravy seafood.
But that wasn’t a problem. On the second day of Qin Lang’s stall operation, he
had already tasted it.
The salty spicy sauce complimented by slight freshness and paired with the natural sweetness of the seafood, made Zhou Tianhao marvel at the heavenly taste and he fell in love with this unique delicacy instantly.
In fact, he found that he preferred gravy seafood even more than the crab roe fried rice.
“Here you go!” Qin Lang handed the food to Zhou Tianhao.
Zhou Tianhao first took a bite of the crab roe fried rice, scooping up all in his mouth with a “gulp”.
Chewing on the slightly sweet, chewy rice and the fresh, delicious crab roe, Zhou Tianhao felt his mood lighten up for the rest of the day.
Indeed, choosing crab roe fried rice as the starter dish was a wise decision. Zhou Tianhao sighed to himself as he placed his tableware in the recycling basket.
If he knew Yan Chao, they would likely have a lot in common.
With two pounds of gravy seafood in hand, Zhou Tianhao waved casually at Qin
Lang.
“Keep up the good work, I’m off!”
He was off to taste other delicacies.
“This is the place!” Following the direction of the people carrying the gravy seafood, Yan Chao quickly found Qin Lang’s stall.
Peeking through the crowded audience, he caught sight of the busy Qin Lang at work at the stall and his face lit up with joy.
Owner Qin Lang, I’m here to support your business again!
in contrast to Yan Chao’s excitement, Zhou Wan’s face immediately drooped at
the sight of the scene.
“This long queue?”
Looking at the queue of dozens of people stretching and bending along the aisle, Zhou Wan was stunned.
“A long queue is a good thing,” Yan Chao patted Zhou Wan’s shoulder unconcernedly, “A long queue in front of the stall means the customers prefer this place, it’s a testament of the food being more delicious.”
Zhou Wan agreed with Yan Chao’s sentiment.
Though the problem is…
“This means we have to wait for a long time!” Zhou Wan began tallying on his fingers, “There are at least 60 or 70 people in line, two minutes per person, that’s two hours. If the cooking time is longer, it could be all morning!”
“So, that’s what you’re worried about!” Yan Chao paused in mirth, “Rest assured, the biggest attribute of the food sold at Qin Lang’s stall is that the food comes out really quickly.”
“With this amount of people, it’ll be our turn within half an hour!”
Zhou Wan gave Yan Chao a “I don’t believe you” expression.
“Why don’t you stay in line here, I’ll go to a stall nearby and buy some other food.” Zhou Wan began to look around, intending to buy some other food to satisfy his hunger.
Although the queues at the other stalls weren’t as long, the food looked equally as tempting.
Most importantly, he was starving.
“No!” Yan Chao suddenly gripped Zhou Wan’s shoulder tightly, “Trust me „ buddy, your first bite of the crab roe fried rice will take you to another level!” Zhou Wan: “…”
I trust you, my foot!
“Look, while we were talking, two customers have already purchased their
food.”
Zhou Wan looked at the quickly moving queue and was rendered speechless.
It’s really that fast?!
After about fifteen minutes.
“I’ll have a serving of crab roe fried rice!” Zhou Wan took a deep whiff of the tantalizing aroma of the crab that was drifting out of the giant pot Qin Lang had in front of his stall. Hunger was already gnawing at him, and the smell had him salivating.
He was eager to see what the food tasted like, seeing how Yan Chao had been so enthusiastic about it.
“Boss, one serving of crab roe fried rice, and three pounds of gravy seafood!” Ye Chao, who was standing behind Zhou Wan in line, ordered cheerfully.
“Just a moment.” Qin Lang answered calmly. He noticed Yan Chao, a regular customer, and gave him a friendly nod. Then, he began to serve the food.
Zhou Wan turned around to look at Yan Chao suddenly.
Gravy seafood, he had heard about it from Yan Chao, its high price of too yuan per pound made him hesitant, so he decided against buying it.
To his surprise, Yan Chao bought three pounds at once!
“Chao, when did you become so generous?”
“Huh!” Yan Chao waved his hand with a smug smile, “The gravy seafood doesn’t have to be eaten immediately. You can take it home.
“Your sister-in-law and nephew tried it before and this time they specifically asked me to buy more and bring it home!” Yan Chao revealed a smug grin, “I told your sister-in-law it was 200 a pound, so I made a cool 300. Don’t let it slip.”
“We could do that, too?” Zhou Wan was shocked and instantly turned to face Qin Lang, “Boss, I’ll have a pound of gravy seafood, too!”
He was going to take it back home to fish for… or rather, fish for extra pocket money!
Qin Lang, who was faintly listening to their conversation, had a strange look on his face.
So this is the life of a married man? Love it!
“Here are your orders of crab roe fried rice, enjoy.” Qin Lang handed over the two servings of crab roe fried rice to both of them and began to weigh the seafood.
Receiving the crab roe fried rice, Zhou Wan’s attention was instantly drawn to the exquisite small container in front of him. Seeing the crab roe generously heaped on top and smelling its rich aroma, he involuntarily salivated. Then, without any hesitation, he scooped up a spoonful and put it in his mouth.
“Ohwo~”
After a slight chew, tasting the full-bodied flavor of the crab in his mouth, Zhou Wan felt his empty and hungry body instantly filled.
This middle-aged man, who showed signs of male-patterned baldness, felt a surge of happiness, as if he had never before experienced.
“How is it? I told you to trust me, didn’t I?” Seeing his old friend’s reaction, Yan Chao chuckled, also put a mouthful of the crab roe fried rice into his mouth, and nodded satisfactorily.
Yeah’ it’s still that familiar wonderful taste.
“Boss, get me a serving of squid with silk threads!
Being on a tasting spree of his gravy seafood, Zhou Tianhao quickly arrived at the other side of the deck.
He stopped in front of a stall and ordered what he found most interesting of the three kinds of food they had. Then, with growing interest, he began to look around for his next target.
Suddenly, Zhou Tianhao’s pupils constricted, and the smile froze on his face. Among the crowd, he vaguely caught sight of a familiar figure.
Was that…
His heart beat quickened.
It couldn’t be wrong!
Even though the person was dressed differently, Zhou Tianhao, who had previously had a lock- in with him, still recognized him by his instincts.
It was him!
The stall owner smiled and nodded, but when he looked up, his expression turned dumbfounded.
Where did the customer who was just in front of the stall go?
