From selling box lunches to becoming a famous Chinese chef

Chapter 119: Another roadblock (fourth update, please subscribe)
  The neighbors bought handfuls of meat and left, and Feng Zhengming and Grandpa Feng ate lunch together.

Then he packed his things and prepared to go to the train station to set up a stall.

Before leaving, Feng Zhengming specifically told Grandpa Feng about the pot of pig's trotters in the kitchen.

"Grandpa, you don't need to help me move the pig's trotters. Just let it stew slowly on the low fire of the briquette stove. I estimate that when I come back from selling the box lunch, it will be almost stewed. We will take it out and taste it first." Taste it.”

Feng Zongguo laughed and said, "Hahaha, let's taste it first? Don't wait until your senior brother and the others come to eat together in the evening?"

Feng Zhengming smiled and said, "Let's taste it first. If it tastes bad, we can't serve it to senior brother and the others at night, lest we make a bad show of shame in front of senior brother."

Feng Zonggu asked: "Are you worried about Master's recipe? Or are you not confident in your own cooking skills?"

Feng Zhengming said with a smile: "No, I'm actually just a little greedy."

The old man couldn't help laughing.

"Hahaha, you brat, you haven't mastered your cooking skills yet, so you just learn to eat secretly. Okay, I'll watch the stove for you. You go out to the stall quickly. Be sure to pay attention to safety on the road."

Feng Zhengming happily agreed, and after bidding farewell to Grandpa Feng, he rode a tricycle to the train station.

During this period, Feng Zhengming became famous for selling meat.

At the South Railway Station, many people come here to buy meat from him every day.

So today, when Feng Zhengming arrived at the train station, there was no exception, there were already people waiting for him.

As soon as they saw Feng Zhengming coming, some people immediately stepped forward and surrounded him without even waiting for him to set up his stall.

"You're here, you're waiting for me to die."

"I thought you weren't coming."

"Why does it feel like it's later than every day today?"

When Feng Zhengming heard someone say that he was late, he looked at the Seagull watch on his wrist that Grandpa Feng had given to him and that he had worn back then, and asked strangely: "Is it late? No? I look at the time as if it's earlier than every day." Is it too early?"

The next moment, almost everyone waiting to buy a handful of meat said in unison: "It's too late."

This situation made Feng Zhengming a little bit dumbfounded.

While setting up the stall, he asked, "Don't you get tired of eating it every day?"

This time everyone answered in unison: "Not tired."

Feng Zhengming was startled when he heard this. He raised his head and looked at everyone who was watching him, waiting to buy.

At this moment, he suddenly felt that these customers were quite cute.

After quickly setting up the stall, Feng Zhengming shouted: "Okay, okay, everyone, line up and come one by one. Don't be crowded. Don't worry, you can definitely buy something."

After hearing Feng Zhengming's shout, everyone immediately lined up one by one.

The man first in line didn't say what he wanted to buy at first, but directly addressed Feng Zhengming.

"That's nonsense. I couldn't buy it because I came late yesterday, and I said you can buy it all."

The man suddenly said this, making Feng Zhengming a little bit dumbfounded.

Several people in the queue behind the man couldn't help but laugh.

An elder sister said: "It doesn't matter, you are the first one today, you will definitely be able to buy it."

Feng Zhengming reached out and opened the lid of the pot and said, "Yes, brother, you can definitely buy it today. Come and see, what do you want?"

The moment the lid of the pot is lifted, the hot steam rises, and the rich aroma spreads in all directions. People can't help but take a few deep breaths, wanting to smell more of the meaty aroma.

The man in the first row smelled the aroma and stared at the rosy pieces of meat in the pot.

After swallowing hard for a few times, the man said, "This is the taste. It's so fragrant. Give me four slices of meat and two boxes of rice. I don't want anything else."

After Feng Zhengming heard this, he smiled and turned around to pick up the lunch box and prepare to put the meat.

The man quickly added: "Give me more soup."

Feng Zhengming was already accustomed to such requests from men.

Since we started selling the meat, many customers who come to buy it will ask for some soup of the meat.

Many people like to mix the meat soup with rice and eat it.

Feng Zhengming naturally followed the man's request and fished out four pieces of meat for him and put them in the lunch box.

Then after serving two portions of rice, pour some soup on the two portions of rice for the man.

The man stared at Feng Zhengming pouring soup on the rice.

They would even ask Feng Zhengming to pour more and skim off some oil on the surface of the meat soup.

"Yes, yes, give me some oil. Don't be reluctant, boss. What is this soup worth?" Before Feng Zhengming could say anything, the people in the queue behind helped him and said, "Soup is the key. This pot of soup belongs to my boss." The secret recipe, without this pot of soup, this handful of meat wouldn’t be as delicious.”

After hearing this, the man simply said: "Boss, how about I give you a dollar and you serve me a bowl of soup."

Feng Zhengming was really amused by the man. He skimmed some oil and poured it on the rice as the man asked.

Then pass the two portions of rice and the meat to the other party.

"Brother, don't be too impulsive. This soup is too salty if you drink too much. If you think it tastes good, you can buy it again next time."

After hearing what Feng Zhengming said, he stared at the soup in the pot and finally left with some reluctance holding his three lunch boxes.

After the man left, the person behind him who came up to buy couldn't help but smile and said: "Boss, your soup is really precious. I look at the attitude of the big brother in front, and I can't wait to drink this pot of soup from you."

Feng Zhengming also laughed: "Then I definitely can't let my eldest brother drink it. If I drink this pot, I won't die."

The sales went smoothly after that, and the big pot of meat was still sold out immediately.

The two pots of dishes brought by Feng Zhengming were also sold out one after another.

Everything was sold out. Feng Zhengming looked at his watch and said to the lady selling soda next to him, "It's selling out faster every day."

The lady selling soda couldn't help but smile and said, "Hahaha, it means your meat and vegetables are delicious."

The vendor who set up a stall next to him immediately said: "The main reason is that you, Master Xiao Feng, have become famous. Now when everyone says they want to buy a bunch of meat, almost all of them immediately say that they must come to South Station to buy it from you."

Another vendor said: "That's right, Master Xiao Feng's meat is really famous in Quancheng now."

The soda seller asked: "I heard that you want to open a shop of your own?"

Feng Zhengming nodded: "Yes, the store has been scouted, and we will open it when the store is ready."

The other vendors suddenly became worried.

"Then Master Xiao Feng won't come to South Station in the future?"

"If you don't come, won't our business also deteriorate?"

"Yes, if you don't come, we will lack a backbone."

Feng Zhengming smiled and said: "I think I will still come to South Station to set up a stall for the time being. It may take a while before I can gradually move to the shop."

The soda seller said: "It's good. The first time I met you, I knew that you would definitely not set up a stall here all the time. You have skills. Sooner or later, you will expand your business and open your own shop. In the future, you will It will definitely get better and better.”

Hearing what the soda seller said, other vendors also sent their blessings to Feng Zhengming.

Facing everyone's blessings, Feng Zhengming really felt very heart-warming.

Although everyone just met each other by chance, they may not even know each other's names very well.

But getting along with each other during this period of setting up a stall still made everyone very happy.

Feng Zhengming said: "I hope everyone can have a prosperous business."

After packing his things, Feng Zhengming rode his tricycle back.

As he passed the intersection toward Shiguai, several figures suddenly rushed out and stopped him at once.

Feng Zhengming was already ready to take action.

But when he saw clearly the person who stopped him, he immediately laughed.

"Brother, why are you here?"

The person who stopped Feng Zhengming was not someone, but everyone in the senior brother's cafeteria.

Sister-in-law Hu Yan and eldest sister Li Fenzhen also stood on the roadside with their children and watched everyone making fun and laughing.

Li Huidong led everyone to raise their hands and show off their bags, large and small.

"We are waiting for you here. Didn't you say you want to invite us to your uncle's house? Of course we have to prepare a lot. Let's see if the dishes are ready."

When Feng Zhengming saw that his senior brother and the others had actually prepared the dishes themselves, he was a bit dumbfounded and said, "What did you do? It seems that grandpa and I can't afford to treat you?"

Lin Jiacheng said: "You treat yours, and we'll cook ours. Since it's a dinner party, of course the more sumptuous the better, right?"

Everyone immediately agreed in unison: "Yes."

Feng Zhengming could only say: "Okay, let's go, don't stand on the road."

When they heard that they were leaving, the elder brother and his brother-in-law's two children immediately clamored to take Feng Zhengming's tricycle.

Feng Zhengming picked up his two children and led everyone to Grandpa Feng's house.

　Thanks to "Soufan's Kuailuo" for the 100 reward.
