When they first boarded the ship, all the stall owners on the deck had varying levels of location advantages, but essentially they were all starting from the same point – the food guests did not know which stall had more delicious food, and therefore the chances for different stalls were similar.

However, as they tasted the food one by one, the food guests began to form an idea about the standards of different stalls. More people would queue up in front of the stalls with more delicious food, and more people queuing up would inform those coming later that the food of this stall was very good.

And so a virtuous cycle was formed.

On the deck, a long line had formed in front of Qin Lang’s stall.

Just as he had expected, the Crab Powder Fried Rice had aroused the strong interest of many food lovers. The small amount of food that could be finished in just a few bites would not burden the stomach, but the wonderful experience of mouthfuls of crab powder would not diminish in the least.

Many people would buy two or three portions at a time, and because the tableware for Crab Powder Fried Rice needed to be collected, they would gather around Qin Lang’s stall with small bowls in their hands to taste, and the food guests who occasionally showed intoxicated expressions became another scenic line of the stall.

Seeing them enjoying their food so much, who wouldn’t feel tempted!

As for the Seafood Medley with Sauce, it must be said that the increase in price did increase the purchasing threshold. Compared to the popularity of Crab Powder Fried Rice, the frequency of selling Seafood Medley with Sauce was much lower. On average, only one out of four or five food guests would buy it.

But this did not prevent it from being highly praised.

Seafood, after all, is all about freshness.

High-end ingredients often only need the simplest cooking methods.

Qin Lang’s unique recipe for the sauce paired with high-quality and diverse seafood – this conscientious operation and simple cooking methods left every food guest who bought and tasted completely satisfied.

And unlike other foods that need to be eaten immediately and are no longer delicious when they get cold, the Seafood Medley with Sauce could be taken home to share with family and friends, and it doesn’t fill you up!

With a combination of all these factors, Qin Lang’s stall was catching on at an incredibly fast pace.

In just one hour, with three batches of tourists boarding the “Yueyu Cruise Ship”, his business had already pulled ahead of the other stalls around him.

As one could imagine, after three days of operation, this gap would only continue to widen.

“Give me a dish of Crab Powder Fried Rice, and weigh me a pound of Seafood

Medley with Sauce.”

“Alright.” Hearing the new customer’s order, Qin Lang, without lifting his head, quickly got busy with his hands, along with his two little helpers.

But when he handed the two dishes to the customer, he was slightly taken abackwhen he saw the somewhat familiar face, “Brother Qi Xian?”

“You seem quite busy.” Qi Xian laughed, his handsome face breaking into a bright smile, “I didn’t expect to run into you at the Leaping Fish Banquet.”

“Neither did I.” Qin Lang scratched his head.

The young man in front of him had interacted with him in Miredi City, but Qin Lang and he hadn’t exchanged contact information and hadn’t been in touch since then.

As for Qi Xian, the only thing Qin Lang remembered was that he was very strong, had three Food Spirits, and his strongest one was already a Four-star, much stronger than himself.

Qin Lang was not particularly surprised that he had come to Jumping Fish Lake.

After all, Miredi City and Yue Hu City are close to each other, and the Leaping Fish Banquet, such a grand occasion, naturally carries no small attraction for Spirit Chefs.

“Before the Leaping Fish Banquet, I tried setting up a stall too.” Qi Xian held the food in one hand and made a spreading hand gesture with the other, “It was really hard work.”

“Setting up a stall is indeed not easy.” Qin Lang nodded in agreement, and then curiously asked, “So, Brother Qi Xian, will you also set up a stall at the Leaping Fish Banquet?”

“Me?” Qi Xian elevated the food in his hand with a smile, “I’m a pretty lazy person, so it’s enough for me to just eat.”

“Alright, then I won’t disturb you anymore.” Seeing the long line of people queuing behind him, Qi Xian voluntarily stepped aside and started to taste his food.

Qin Lang nodded slightly and continued to serve his next customer.

When he finished his work and looked up again at where Qi Xian had just been standing, the other party’s figure had long since disappeared.

“Hey! Why haven’t we found the stall of Boss Qin Lang yet?”

Standing in the crowd, Yan Chao’s face was somewhat disheartened.

Maybe, he should have found out where Qin Lang’s stall was before the start of the Leaping Fish Banquet.

“You’ve been looking all the way.” Zhou Wan gave Yan Chao a look of disdain, “There are so many food stalls here, why can’t we taste each one and look for the stall you’re looking for in the meantime?”

With that, he couldn’t help rubbing his own stomach.

In order to welcome the Leaping Fish Banquet with the best conditions, he had not eaten anything since last night.

Now his stomach was empty, and being surrounded by the smell of various foods on the deck, he felt like he was about to be crazed by hunger.

If not for the evil Yan Chao holding him back, with his speed, he would have tasted the food at least four stalls by now!

“I know you’re hungry, but you need to resist.” Yan Chao spoke with a sincere tone, saying the most inhumane words, “After eating other dishes, your stomach will be full, and when you taste Boss Qin Lang’s Crab Powder Fried Rice again, you won’t be able to grasp its essence.

This was the conclusion Yan Chao had reached after his own trial.

Although it might not look like much volume, but Crab Powder Fried Rice is, after all, a staple food. That slightly sweet rice at the entrance brings an unprecedented satisfaction to the hungry guests.

If the stomach has food in it, it will still taste delicious when tasting, but it always feels like something is missing.

So Yan Chao had long decided, no matter where Boss Qin Lang’s stall was, he would start his journey at the Leaping Fish Banquet from there!

And Zhou Wan was his best friend, so of course, he had to bring him along for the ride!

“But I’m so hungry, aren’t you hungry?” Zhou Wan was a bit distressed,’ How much further is that stall?”

“We’re almost there!” Yan Chao assured him, “We’ve already walked more than half of the deck, and the remaining area isn’t much.”

“More importantly, I’ve already seen several people walking past with Seafood Medley with Sauce!”

Although similar dishes might exist at other stalls, Yan Chao was sure that he had not seen it wrong! That was the other dish from Boss Qin Lang’s stall, the Seafood Medley with Sauce!

“Alright!” Hearing his old friend say this, Zhou Wan rubbed his stomach, “It s strange, we haven’t seen Qi Xian’s stall either, have we?

Zhou Wan had been yearning for the food from that stall owner for a long time and wanted Yan Chao to taste it as well.

“Look on the bright side, maybe the Qi Xian you’re talking about didn’t even participate in the Leaping Fish Banquet?” Yan Chao gave a sly smile.

“Damn!” Zhou Wan looked helpless, “If I ever meet that guy, I’ll catch him and force him to set up a stall!”

From not far away from the two, someone who was leisurely enjoying the Seafood Medley with Sauce perked up their ears, then inexplicably pulled a duckbill hat out of nowhere and put it on, pulling the hat brim down to cover the top half of his face, and turned to leave.
