"First-ti custors can order just half a portion of fried rice."
"If after tasting, they want more and choose my side, then the half portion from your side won’t be charged, right? Just consider it as not paying for sothing that doesn’t taste good."
"Of course, if the custor chooses your side for the second portion, then my half portion won’t be charged either!"
Huang Bo listened, feeling bewildered and montarily couldn’t react.
Beside him, Zhu Yan clenched her fist and stamped her foot, "Yeah, this thod is fair, and it’s quite fair to the custors!"
"No..." Huang Bo looked at Zhu Yan, puzzled, "What do you an by fair, what’s he implying?"
Zhu Yan was indeed distracted; she explained it to Huang Bo with eyes full of little stars.
In short, first-ti custors can spend 188 to order half portions from both sides.
If they decide not to eat more, they pay half the amount for each side.
If they want another portion from the side they liked, then the other side cannot charge for the half portion.
"Like this?" Huang Bo turned to Chen Mo, "It seems fair to the custors, shall we settle on this?"
"Alright, see you tomorrow." Chen Mo replied with his usual calm deanor.
Gao Hao, who was live streaming nearby, beca very excited.
Betting is great; it ans content for tomorrow’s live stream. The rapidly rising numbers in the stream show that viewers really enjoy this kind of plot.
"This is indeed fair, not paying for what doesn’t taste good, winning with deliciousness!"
"Gosh... Don’t you know who this is? I’ve always thought he looked familiar, and then I suddenly rembered he’s the head chef of Jingya Pavilion!"
"Damn, one of our Four Famous Buildings, Jingya Pavilion?"
"Oh no, the guy’s t a tough opponent this ti; this free labor stint seems unavoidable."
"Hey strear, could you ask a question? Now that the brothers lost, they have to work for Boss Xiao Chen. If Boss Xiao Chen loses tomorrow, will the brothers work for Chef Huang?"
Gao Hao twitched the corners of his mouth, you really don’t see the brothers as people, do you?
Since many out-of-town viewers in the stream kept asking about the identity, Gao Hao had to give a brief introduction for those not from the area.
"Folks, the so-called Four Famous Buildings are the four most renowned restaurants in Yangzhou."
"The other three famous buildings are Shuyue Pavilion, Tingsong Garden, and Qinxiang Building."
"Each restaurant has its signature dish and is a must-visit gourt spot in Yangzhou. The specialty of Jingya Pavilion is Yangzhou Fried Rice, and this gentleman here is the head chef in charge of the fried rice, Chef Huang!"
Gao Hao’s introduction not only enlightened the out-of-town viewers but also boosted Huang Bo’s confidence, who was standing in front of the food truck.
Initially a bit nervous, Huang Bo now felt highly confident.
"Xiaobo, are you sure we shouldn’t try a portion of fried rice first before making a decision?" Zhu Yan asked.
After all, their purpose tonight was to eat fried rice, only to be sidetracked by the strear into trying lion’s head atballs first.
Huang Bo waved it off, "No need to taste it, if even I lack this confidence, I shouldn’t be a head chef. Alright, we’ll still be in this spot tomorrow afternoon, see you then."
After saying that, Huang Bo walked away from the North Gate of the Ecological Garden with Zhu Yan on his arm.
Custors sitting by the roadside munching on atballs and fried rice clicked their tongues, and Liu Haitao nodded in agreent.
"Nice, nice, another show to watch tomorrow. With such fun stuff, who would want to plan a trip to the Northwest?"
Yuan Xiaolin sighed repeatedly, "Never thought Boss Xiao Chen’s little stall would catch the attention of the Four Famous Buildings. If he wins tomorrow, great, but if he loses, it could be embarrassing... Having the head chef from Jingya Pavilion work for Boss Xiao Chen for free? My goodness, it’s laughable."
Yu Hongtao chuckled, "Wife, who do you think will win?"
"If we’re talking taste, I think Boss Xiao Chen will win for sure."
"Any other considerations?"
Yuan Xiaolin leaned slightly forward and whispered, "After all, Jingya Pavilion is a big local restaurant; if they exert a little effort, isn’t such a thing manageable?"
Gosh...
Yu Hongtao took a deep breath, realizing it might really be like that. If a big restaurant like Jingya Pavilion wants to play dirty, Boss Xiao Chen might not have any way to fight back!
Seeing that it was getting late.
Chen Mo still felt a bit disappointed.
He managed to sell over forty lion’s head atballs, but the fried rice sales didn’t et his expectations.
The custor flow was slightly better than yesterday, but not by much.
However, there was so good news.
Xue Ping helplessly dragged his brother Xue An to the food truck.
"Boss Xiao Chen, how many lion’s head atballs did you sell?"
Before Chen Mo could speak, Xue An murmured, "He sold 45, I counted each one."
"How many did we sell?"
Xue An stubbornly said, "Brother, I’m not convinced! Many of the lion’s heads he sold were purchased by people out of curiosity, not because they were particularly tasty."
Smack!
Xue Ping smacked the back of his brother’s head, "How many did we sell?"
"16..."
Counting everything, including the nine from Qin Zhenhai’s treat, the Xue brothers sold a total of 16 lion’s heads.
That was with a few people ordering one from each side to taste; otherwise, they would’ve sold only about ten.
Xue An sighed, "Boss Xiao Chen, we accept our loss. As long as you set up your stall in the Ecological Garden for a day, we’ll work for you free of charge for a day. Just tell us what you’d like us to do."
Lo and behold, good news did co.
Initially, Chen Mo was worried about not being able to win the contest with the 40-plus lion’s heads he prepared, but the brothers had sold such a small amount!
"Okay, leave your number. I’ll contact you tomorrow morning."
"Alright."
After exchanging phone numbers with Chen Mo, Xue Ping dragged Xue An away from the North Gate, leaving their handcart next to the food truck.
Chen Mo stayed on the truck a bit longer.
Though a few more custors trickled in wanting to try the fried rice, seeing as it was already past ten o’clock, Chen Mo decided not to continue operations.
He apologized to the new custors and drove the truck back to the parking lot.
As for the bet with Huang Bo, it didn’t weigh on Chen Mo’s mind at all.
He had three days for the bet, and Chen Mo was confident enough to win this wager.
The problem now was...
Due to poor managent the past two days, he hadn’t accumulated much experience value, and according to the rules of the food truck, after midnight, the operating hours would refresh.
Chen Mo looked at the current level and experience value of the food truck, feeling a bit lancholic.
[Experience Value: 76322/100000]
This was after accumulating sales from selling barbecue in Sichuan for quite so ti.
What to do... The stall prices in Yangzhou are so high.
Can I really be satisfied with just leveling up once?
Lying in bed, Chen Mo silently prayed in his heart.
Hope the new business hours are favorable!
