"Bro, I think you’re a bit spleen-deficient. Our company recently learned so traditional Chinese dicine techniques during training, but we’re running out of ti..."
Damn!
Gao Hong felt like a thousand silver needles were stabbing his back.
The foot massage business isn’t exactly forbidden, but it’s always been a bit of an under-the-table industry in cities.
It’s one thing for these shops to be hidden in the streets and alleys of the city, but...
Selling food at a stall or toys is normal.
But you foot massage people, what’s going on with setting up a stall too!
Just when Gao Hong was feeling awkward, a man carrying a sign approached.
"Hey guys, why not sit down and get a foot massage while you wait?"
He Chunming smiled broadly, "Look at how long that queue is, who knows when your turn will co. We’ve got soone in the line; all you have to do is sit, get a foot massage, and soone will naturally bring over the delicious food for us."
The leader chuckled, "Ha, there’s a service like this too."
Gao Hong couldn’t quite discern what this ant, so he could only smile awkwardly, not knowing what to say.
"Why not give it a try? Everyone’s making a living through their skills; I think it’s a good thing."
"You’re right!"
Gao Hong quickly grabbed He Chunming’s slip, checked it, and felt that the price was reasonable for Yangzhou’s local area.
The basic package is 198 yuan, and you can get a 40-minute massage!
Of course, He Chunming has raised the prices; it was much cheaper back in Jingzhou.
Sotis, the more things are hidden, the more they seem unspeakable.
But really, once it’s out in the open, sitting at a small table on the street, it’s just a foot massage, what’s the big deal?
So the group, under He Chunming’s arrangent, all went behind the small table, and waiting technicians ca up to begin their service imdiately.
Just as He Chunming said.
If they waited in line, who knows how long they’d end up waiting, but while enjoying the foot massage service, just over ten minutes passed, and one of the guys was only just removing his socks awkwardly.
Then a girl ca over smiling, carrying several yellow bowls.
"Lucky us, Boss Xiaochen just brought back a big batch of shrimp, and now there’s no purchase limit, plus they’re cooking them much faster now."
Nana placed a serving of Phoenix Tail Shrimp on each custor’s table and didn’t forget to ntion that the al cost was included in the foot massage fee.
"These Phoenix Tail Shrimp don’t look that appealing, I wonder how they taste."
"They do look a bit plain, but with so many people lining up, there must be sothing special, let’s give it a try."
As a Yangzhou local, Gao Hong often eats Phoenix Tail Shrimp and has tried nearly all the restaurants in town that are known for it.
Shelled shrimp are easy to eat, even though only the tail part has so shell left, but after treatnt, even that is crispy and edible.
He ate a whole shrimp in one bite.
Gao Hong savored it slowly, feeling the distinct fibers of the shrimp at, with a texture similar to lobster, yet tender due to precise cooking.
The tip of his tongue could even sense the slight springiness of the shrimp at between his teeth.
"This dish retains the shrimp’s original flavor while adding layers through texture and seasoning. Director Gao, how does this compare to the Phoenix Tail Shrimp at Tingfeng Tower?"
Gao Hong was focused on eating voraciously.
As soon as he finished the first one, he was amazed. No wonder more and more people are coming to the Ecological Garden these days; turns out this unknown Boss Xiaochen’s craftsmanship is so superb.
It’s no exaggeration to say that this is almost the best Phoenix Tail Shrimp he’s ever eaten, perfectly aligning with his preference for the taste of shrimp.
The seasoning is light, highlighting the flavor of the shrimp itself.
They look springy, yet the surface is sowhat crispy, simply indescribable.
"Delicious." Gao Hong said without hesitation, "The Phoenix Tail Shrimp at Tingfeng Tower is good too, but compared to this, it’s still sowhat lacking."
"Oh? What’s the difference then?"
Gao Hong ate another one, this ti taking it slow, focusing on the experience.
After a mont, he said slowly, "The Phoenix Tail Shrimp at Tingfeng Tower, when you eat it, it’s like... going to a restaurant that makes good Phoenix Tail Shrimp, that’s the feeling."
"But eating this Phoenix Tail Shrimp feels like soone tailored it exactly to my personal taste preferences, amazing!"
Amazing indeed, enjoying delicious food while getting a foot massage from a pretty girl.
Gao Hong felt all the fatigue from work these past few days lt away, feeling refreshed!
If only every day could be like this...
The leader was also quite satisfied with Gao Hong’s response because he felt the sa way.
As if the creator had known his preferences in advance.
In every bite, whether in texture or flavor—upon entering the mouth, the taste, the crispy springiness during chewing, and the lingering aroma after swallowing—all hit perfectly his every food fantasy.
The group stopped chatting and just focused on indulging in the shrimp.
Each serving probably had about 20 pieces, and soon everyone had cleared them all out, Gao Hong wiped his mouth, "Can we have another serving, please?"
The girl giving him the foot massage smiled sweetly, "Your ti..."
