“Sorry, the seafood medley with sauce is sold out.”

Qin Lang pointed at the empty glass tank and spoke with a hint of apology. Despite his confidence in his cooking, the bustling conditions in Food Street tonight exceeded his estimates.

The two large tanks of seafood medley with sauce he had prepared in advance, a total of too kg, were completely sold out, leaving behind just two empty tanks and a little soup at the bottom.

Shame I’m late, I heard the seafood medley with sauce here was delicious.” The food guest at the front of the queue showed a look of regret. “I’ll come earlier tomorrow.”

“Do you still have the crab roe fried rice?”

“We do.” Qin Lang nodded.

The prepared crab roe fried rice, made from cooked crabs, was selling out even quicker than the seafood medley with sauce.

However, Qin Lang had noticed the situation early on and had made a call to have a new batch of hairy crabs, supplied by an Association-certified food market, delivered.

The seafood medley with sauce required complex ingredient preparation ahead of time, while the crab roe fried rice did not have this problem.

Using new ingredients, Qin Lang fried a large pot of fresh crab powder on the spot, refilled the shortage of crab roe and ensured that he would make it through the evening just fine.

“Give me two servings.”

Coming right up.” Qin Lang quickly dished out two servings of crab roe fried rice and handed them to the customer.

“Cheers!”

We’ve sold 1,000 servings of crab roe fried rice!

Spicy, the one in charge of keeping track of sales, let out a cheer.

Joy appeared on the faces of Qin Lang and Dan Bao, who had just finished cleaning a batch of tableware.

A thousand servings of crab roe fried rice in one night.

Together with the hundred kilograms of seafood mix that had sold out, their gross income had reached 30,000 yuan.

Although they were selling at cost price and made no profit, the sense of accomplishment was indescribable.

Looking at the remaining crab powder and live crabs, which could likely yield another 500 servings of crab roe fried rice, Qin Lang smiled, “Keep it up, close up shop once we’re sold out!”

“Yes!”

“Cheers!”

The two little helpers cheered, despite their all-night workload, they were still full of energy.

With the praise of each food guest, the crab roe fried rice was quickly sold.

1,100 servings…

1,200 servings…

1,300 servings…

1,400 servings…

The live crabs were stir-fried by Qin Lang into the last big pot of crab roe. There was only half a pot left.

With the night growing darker, the other stalls had started to close up.

After the busiest period, the business operation of Food Street was nearing its end.

Qin Lang was now greeted by a familiar customer.

“A serving of crab roe fried rice… Huh?” Zhou Tianhao noticed this stall, came up and was just about to pay when he noticed Qin Lang and blinked, “Qin Lang?”

“Brother Zhou, if you had come a little later, I would have sold out of my crab roe fried rice.” Qin Lang laughed as he served up a dish for Zhou Tianhao “Trv it?”

“Sure.” Zhou Tianhao took the dish with a smile and explained casually, “I went to visit a Second-Level Food Recommender in Yue Hu City today, it took some time, I just finished the test and heard about the food street here, but I’m still a bit late.”

“Wow~”

As he spoke, he scooped a spoonful of crab roe fried rice into his mouth.

The next moment, Zhou Tianhao’s eyes widened dramatically.

The unique flavour instantly filled his mouth, bringing an astonishingly delicious taste. Zhou Tianhao was greatly shocked by this indescribable savory sensation.

This was his first time tasting Qin Lang’s culinary skills.

After tasting it, Zhou Tianhao looked at Qin Lang with a different gaze.

Although the gap in power between the young man in front of him and himself was not small, the gap in cooking was also significant.

Is this what a genius with cooking talent is like?

It’s terrifying.

Qin Lang didn’t notice Zhou Tianhao’s shock; he was captivated by Zhou Tianhao’s explanation. “Brother Zhou, have you passed the second-level Food Recommender’s assessment in Yue Hu City?”

“No.” Zhou Tianhao finished the remaining crab roe fried rice and shook his head helplessly, “It was still a bit too difficult for me, so I failed the test.”

“But the second-level Food Recommender is a good person. He gave me some suggestions about my dishes. It can also be considered a gain.” Zhou Tianhao optimistically smiled, “Give me another serving of crab roe fried rice!”

“Alright.” Qin Lang smiled and served another dish.

At this moment, there was no longer a long queue in front of the stall, so he could chat more with Zhou Tianhao, “It’s a pity that the seafood medley with sauce I prepared has been sold out, otherwise you could have tried it.”

I saw it.” Zhou Tianhao glanced at the two empty glass tanks next to him, showed a regretful look on his face, “It doesn’t matter. I’ll be here earlier tomorrow.” Yôur f𝒂vorite stories on 𝒏/o/(v)𝒆/lb𝒊n(.)c𝒐m

He didn’t need to prepare for the Leaping Fish Banquet, so he would have a lot of free time.

After chatting for a while, Zhou Tianhao finished the second bowl of crab roe fried rice.

Qin Lang didn’t want to take his money, but just as a new customer was coming, Zhou Tianhao quickly scanned a code to pay, waved goodbye casually, and left to take advantage of the still-open stalls and grab a quick meal.

The remaining crab roe fried rice sold out gradually; Qin Lang checked the records of the payments, verified there were no errors and packed up the stall with the two little ones.

The total turnover today was forty thousand.

Considering that he didn’t prepare enough ingredients and lost a lot of time due to inexperience at the beginning, and only opened the stall for a few hours in the evening, Qin Lang believed that if he opened the stall all day tomorrow, the turnover had a chance to break a hundred thousand.

With the Leaping Fish Banquet approaching, he needed to set up the stall for three consecutive days. He needed to get used to such high-intensity stall work. Meanwhile, the current sales situation of the stall could also serve as a reference for that time, ensuring he would not overlook any details during preparation.

“Let’s go back to the hotel for a rest, it’s been a tough night.” Qin Lang hugged Dan Bao and Spicy and patted them lovingly.

“Gulur~”

Dan Bao shook the little yolk face in its body, indicating that it was not tired at all but happy instead.

For it, helping to wash and dry the tableware was both assisting Qin Lang and practicing its combat skills. It was like killing two birds with one stone.

“Chacha!”

Spicy looked enviously at Dan Bao, then insisted that it was not tired.

The envy was because its combat skills were not as practical as Dan Bao’s, but it also felt happy to be of help to Qin Lang.

“There are nine days left.” Pushing his cart on the way back, Qin Lang looked up at the bright moon in the sky, showing a look of anticipation on his face, “It’s getting close.”

Time flew, and nine days passed.

Thanks to the new rules of the Leaping Fish Banquet, the city had many more food stalls these days. This let the locals of Yue Hu City and tourists who had come for sightseeing plunge into a feast of delicious food in advance.

Everyone was very clear that this feast was just a prelude.

The Leaping Fish Banquet was the real moment of revelry.

As countless people were eagerly waiting, a super large cruise ship of nearly three hundred meters in length, with its deck as big as two football fields, docked at the largest pier in Yue Hu City.

The words “Yueyu Cruise Ship” were painted on the body of the ship.

The Spirit Chefs who had been waiting on the pier started to board the ship with their own stall carts.

The long whistle of the ship echoed across the pier; the Yueyu Cruise Ship set sail.

Its destination was the center of Jumping Fish Lake.
